CAUCUS ON THE CONvICrs.

Those Present Decide to Leave the
Question With the House.
Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 7.--At the close Of the
night session of the House, at which moth
ing was done, a democratic caucus was
held to consider the convict situation. The
caucus, however, decided to have nothing
to do with the convict business. but will
leave it to the House to act upon it as it
sees fit tomorrow. According to the
statements of some of those who voted
against the bill to-day the opposition was
largely due to the conduct of a certain
element, which they say undertook to force
the House to pass their bill whether 1t
suited the majority or not. The caucus
was a very lively meeting for a whiles
some sharp talk being INDUCED in The
refusal of the caucus to consider the con-
Vict bill was due to the warm factional
feeling. much of which is directed toward
what is called the administration policy.

OLDEST CONDUCTOR DEAD.
Sanford Bell Dies From ApOpIexy At

ter 40 Years. Service.
Atlanta, Ga, Dec. Capt Sanford Bell
said to be the Oldest conductor in service
in the world, and the first man to run a
train into Atlanta when the place was still
Marthasville, died of apoplexy this morn
ing at the residence of his daughter, ZIG
Simpson street.
Capt. Bell was a conductor on the Wes-
tern and Atlantic for thrty-seven years
in succession. He was in the service of
the road for forty-five years. Mr. Bell
went into the service of the Western and
Atlantic in 1852 as conductor. He ran the
first train that ever came to Atlanta on
the state road. The place was Marthas-
vile at that time, a little village giving
no promise of its present dimensions. Mr.
Bell was a conductor during the whole war
period. He went through all the hardships
attendant upon that struggle and his life
was filled with thrilling incidents and ex-
periences that would make an interesting
book.

CRAzED by A BROTHERS. FALL.
Conviction For Larceny Drives a Sis
ter Insane.

Atlanta, Ca, Dec. IA pathetic and
at the same time, exciting scene, took
place in the court room of Judge Berry
this afternoon When the jury filed in
with a verdict of guilty against Claud AL
len, young man charged with larceny
his sister, who had come to court to watch
his trial, suddenly sprung to her feet
shfieking and throwing herself about in
a frantic manner. 1t was all that two
strong men could do to hold her and carry
her from the court room to the street
where her frenzied screams attracted a
great crowd
At first it was thought the woman was
simply hysterical at the downfall of her
brother, but it soon became apparent that
it was more lunacy than hysteria. The
unfortunate woman had once been an in
mate of the asylum and was dismissed as
cured. The strain of the trial, however
upset her and made a raving maniac of
her again, and she will now have to be
sent back to MilledgeVille again.

should Settle the Question.
Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 7-As forecasted in
these dispatches last night. Gov. Akin
son this afternoon vetoed the anti-foot ball
bill. He sent a message to the House
stating he had vetoed the measure, as he
thought the question of whether college
boys should play foot ball should be left
with the faculties of the various institu-
tons. 1t is possible that an effort will
be made to pass the bill over the veto. but
It is not at all likely such an effort would
succeed. 1t has been stated that Mrs
Cannon, mother of the player who was
recently killed in the game of the Univers-
ity of Virginia against the University Of
Georgia game asked the governor to veto
the measure, but this report is denied by
Mrs. Cannon.
