AT yesterday mornings session OF the
Board of Supervisors, at which all the
members were present, a communica-
ton from Peter J. Shields, the Gov
ernor's Private Secretary, to District
attorney Ryan was read. to the effect
tnat under the rule of the State Board
OF Examiners an agent of the State in
extradition cases could not draw per
olem, and that the State would pay
only his actual expenses
supervisor Morrison said that Dis
trlct Attorney Ryan had stated to the
board that County Detective Fisher
was being paid So a day for going 10
Arizona after prisoner, and his action
mad been taken on that statement
Supervisor Jenkins said he also had
voted as he did on that understanding,
Mr. Ryan having so stated.

should bear the expense of his recap
ture.
ANDROUS ISLAND ROAD.
Hiram W. Johnson appeared FOR Mrs.
Jane Smith in relation to a proposed
road across her place on Andrus ,Isl-
and. She had understood that the
money for the land had been paid to
some other party, who did not own the
land.
An investigation showed that the
viewers report showed G. A. Knott to
be the only on-consenting landowner
er and that the board had laid it aside
for future action and nothing further
had been done in it,
Mr.. Johnson also asked the board to
allow the claim for levee work on SUIT
ter Island and stated that District At
torney Ryan said there was no legal
impediment to its payment.
He was told that when Mr.. Ryan. who
was away, returned, the board would
take up the matter.

County Veterinarian Fox reported
that since his last report he had visited
the quarantined district near Gait that
was infected with Texas fever and con-
sidered that the disease was now suffi-

fever tick, isolated and treated them,
and they were now all right. He had
made several other visits to Gait md

OTHER MATTERS.

interest in it. Still, it is a very important
measure for business men. The only differ
ence of opinion in the House seems to be
over the matter of involuntary bankruptcy
Many members are said to be opposed to the
forcing Of a debtor into bankruptcy pro-
ceedings. AS the bin under consideration
exempts all those who are not engaged in
the distribution Of merchandise. banking
and manufacturing, there seems to be no
good argument why debtor who allows
his notes to go to protest and does not pay
his bills for merchandise as they become
due should not be petitioned into insolvency.
since, by being allowed to go on until he
can go no further, he will be able to dispose
of the receipts of goods sold by him while
in condition of practical insolvency.
Years ago the East alone took an interest
in a general bankruptcy law. but now the
Central West and South lead in the demand
for it. which goes to prove that the distri-
button of merchandise to retailers has been
transferred to the last-named sections.

terest on bonds and in making payments
in other countries. In the act the word
coin is used. This act was passed because
there was a quite general sentiment, slim
ulated by Democratic demagogues and fla
vored by timid Republicans, that the five
twenty bonds should be paid off with green
backs. Not a Democrat in either branch
of Congress voted for the act. Quite a
number of Republicans voted with the Dem
ocrats. Gold was the only coin in use then,
because the silver dollar, during the period
referred to, was worth from 8 to cents
more than the gold dollar Now the repudi-

dollars worth less than so cents in the
worlds market. This is their issue, or one
of them. They ignore the fact that every
bond now in existence was paid for in gold
or its equivalent-in dollars the best in the
world-yet they ask the people of this coun-
try to vote with them to pay off these bonds

TORTURED BY NEGROES.
Sixteen-Year-OId Girl Burned by
Three Black Men.

ATLANTA, Ga, FEB. ia letter re-
ceived yesterday by Governor Atkinson
from Sheriff Patterson, of Decatur county,
gives the bare facts regarding the horrible
efforts of three unknown negroes, one day
last week. to burn to death the daughter OF
James Alday a prominent citizen of a dis
trict remote from Geographic facilities in
Decatur county. From all accounts it APP
pears the girl who is about sixteen years
of age, had occasion to go TO q spring about
two hundred yards from her fathers house,
and on re turning through dense thicket
she was seized upon by three negroes,
whom she had never seen before, and when
they discovered that she was the daughter
of Alday two of them firmly held her while
the third applied matches to the skirts OF
her clothing. She was detained until the
flames We're licking her face and had eaten
into her under garments and then released
and ordered to fly for her life. She ran
screaming to her fathers door, where she
arrived with not shred of clothing OH her
body and literally one huge blister. Imme-
date attention was given her and every
effort made to save her life, but latest re-
ports from the place indicate that her
death was hourly expected The sheriff is
making every effort to discover the negroes.
The Governor is investigating the affair,
and it is very probable a large reward will
be offered for the apprehension of the three
men,

NO LONGER AN ISSUE.


The three Bryan parties. in their last
proclamations, are silent on the tariff issue.
Mr.. Bailey, of Texas, is announced as hay
ing determined to make a contest for the
Senate upon the issues of free silver and
a protective tariff. In no out-and-out Bryan
organ, except, perhaps, the Chicago Chron-
icle and the St Louis Republic does one
find any denunciatlon of the present pro-
masquerades no longer unless he is dis
guised under Mr.. Bryan's declaration of
war on trusts In general the once free
trade party silently admits that the tariff
is no longer an issue. The silence of the
combine upon that once burning issue is
admission that a protective tariff is not
only the settled policy of the country, but
that a large majority of the American peo-
pie now believe that it is the true policy
AT any rate there appears to be no cam
paign material in denouncing protection
This silent admission is a great gain for
the Republican party. There is but one
Democrat in Congress who did not vote
against the Dingley bill. AS a matter of
fact, the Populists. Mr.. Cannon Mr. Pet
tigrew and most of the silver state sena-
tors went on record against the BILL In
the House it was strict party vote, Mr.

associates. In the Senate several senator's

In the present stage of affairs relating to
the battle-ship disaster conjecture springs
up at every point. Among other questions
that arise is, What would this government
do if investigation should show that the
Maine was destroyed by torpedo exploded
from the outside? In that case, the first
question would be whether it was done by
any Spanish agent or official or with the
knowledge and approval of such agent or
official. If SO, the United States would be
warranted in treating it as a cause of war.
to be resented in whatever way it might
see fit. An immediate declaration of war
followed by the bombardment Of Havana
would not be too energetic action in that
case. On the other hand, if it should prove
that the torpedo was applied without the
knowledge of the Spanish officials by a Gu
ban insurgent or by some Spaniard not in
the service of the government, the United
States would have claim for indemnity
against Spain, that country being liable for
all injuries to American property in Cuba
or it's waters In that case, the United
States would be justified in making a de-
mand on Spain fQr the full value of the
Maine and a lump sum to cover an indemni-
ty to the family of every one OF her crew
killed or injured by the explosion Such a.
demand should be made in the form of an
ultimatum, with a time limit as to compli-
ance, and should be enforced to the letter
These conditions may not arise-but, on the
other hand, they may.

The reason that the reorganization COM
mittee of the Pacific railroads would not
pay more than Sc, SO3, 900 for the Kansas Pa
ciiic branch is that the syndicate it repre-
sents owns the 90 miles from the terminus
of the Kansas Pacific, upon which the gov
eminent had a claim, and could parallel the
ga miles upon which the United States had
a second mortgage for about $S,00O,OO0. The
managers of the Alton and the Burlington
roads, which are feeders for the Kansas
Pacific, refused to touch the government
claim because its portion of the line is
worthless without an outlet
