It was stated in a Washington dispatch
day or two ago that the papers in the
court martial case of Capt. Q. M Carter
had been referred to his attorneys" Any
such proceeding would have been remark
able, even in this remarkable case; but
1t has been officially denied that anything
of the kind has been done. 1t is stated
TO be probable, however, that Secretary
Alger has referred the papers to IAN at
torney'-not Capt. Carriers attorneys
whose views he desires to obtain. There
is no indication when the matter will be
acted upon

The surplus arising from the fees for
the inspection of fertilizers amounts to
approximately $4,000 TO $4,000 per annum.
This money is now turned in TO the school
fund, where it is practically "only a drop
in the bucket" Hon. o. b. Stevens who
lie to be the next state commissioner of
agriculture, thinks this fund should he
expended for the extension and expan-
zion of the work Of the agricultural de-
partment. He thinks The farmers should
have whatever benefits accrue. from the
department, and it is his idea that all of
the bulletins and other publications Of
the department should be given fun and
free distribution among the farmers. Not
one IN fifty Of them now receives the de-
partments publications, he says. His
suggestion is certainly worth the careful
consideration Of the legislature.

snrannah,s ReturninC soIhiers.

Savannah is sincerely glad to have the
men of Battery B, Georgia Artillery
which is virtually the historic, glorious old
Chatham Artillery-back at home again
There was only short notice of the time
the soldiers would arrive, and consequent
ly large popular demonstration was out
of the question; but what the welcome
lacked in size, 1t more than made up in
honest heartiness and enthusiasm. The
men look every inch soldiers fit TO sus-
tain the honor of their country and the
prestige of their parent orga nization upon
any field and in any emergency; and they
are no less heroes of the war than If they
had been at the front at San Juan and
Caney with Lawton and Capron, as they
would have been had it been a matter of
choice with them. By performing cheer
fully and conscientiously their duties
wherever they We're assigned. the battery
added its quota to that invincible strength
Of the American army which brought
Spain to see the hopelessness of continu-
ing the struggle and suing for peace. sa-

netter stnx at Home.

There are many persons who seem to
think that In the new territory acquired
or to be acquired by the United States
there are or will be almost limitless OPP
portunitles for money-making. The work
ings of this idea are now being illustrated
in Hawaii. Hundreds of young men; doc
tors lawyers, accountants, dentists
clerks and others are rushing TO the IS
lands, expecting to be able to at once be-
gin the rapid accumulation of an indie
pendent fortune. A dispatch from Homo
lulu says that city is fun of such persons
who went there in the expectation of
picking up sugar stock in the street, and
at once taking it to a bank and having
the coupons cashed, and living on the fat
of the land" Many of them have about
exhausted their slender resources, and the
captains of steamers and sailing craft are
being daily appealed to for free passage
back to the states by disappointed fortune
hunters eff this immigration continues"
says the dispatch, there will be suffering
among those who come with small
means"
individuals whose working capital con-
sists solely of energy, ambition and an
adventurous spirit should understand that
there is no royal road to fortune in Ha-
wall or Porto Rico, or the Philippines. or
in Cuba. There are no good things ly
ing around loose to be picked up and en-
joyed by the first Corners and the smart
hustlers. The good things" have all been
pre-empted by those who have an abund-
ance of capital at command with which to
make the most of the opportunities pre-
sented The man who goes to either of the
islands without capital had as well make
up his mind that he is going to have par
ticularly hard row to hoe. The chances of
success there for a person with only
brains and labor 10 put on the market
are probably not nearly so good as they
are right at home. Georgia. for instance,
has infinitely more and richer undeveloped
resources than Hawaii or Porto Rico The
indomitable will and energy necessary to
the winning Of success in either of the is
lands, without the aid of ample capital,
would If expended in Georgia yield better
returns. And in the matter of investments,
the truth probably is that Georgia offers
more and better inducements than may be
found in either the Atlantic or the Pacific
islands.

Expressed Her Opinfop.

The afternoon was exceedingly hot, and
she was of an avoirdupois which made
the heart a burden, says the Washington
Post. You could see that she had hurried
all the way. She had four bundles, and
her collar was superflously high Posi-
bly,, too, her shoes were new. At any
rate, her face was far from serene as. she
dashed through the station gate, just in
the nick of time, and painted up the car
steps. The sudden transition from the
glare without to the gloom within blinded
her but she rushed on. In the very mid
die of the aisle stood a huge travelling
bag. The woman did not see it, She
came down with a jar that must have
loosened the filling in her back teeth Her
hat flew off. her collar slipped its moor
ings, and her bundles dropped with a
crash that suggested bottles inside. She
picked herslf up. Her voice had a vibra-
ton that bespoke of unfathomable depth
what idiot left that bag there?" she
inquired icily
A young man hurried down the aisle
Il left it there ma am" he said, apollo
getically, Il just went ahead to look for
a better seat. I hope you'll pardon me
You heard what 1 said, didn't you,
interrupted the woman. You heard it.
didn't you? Wen, mean it,
I'm awfully sorry said the man. 81
hope you are not hurt
I've broken a bottle of shoe polish in
a bag full of linen" answered the wo-
man, freezingly I've smashed the crys-
tai of my watch. I've barked one knee
and sprained my wrist. 1 am hurt You
heard my opinion of you, and don't you
dare try to apologize, young man; don't
you dare. 1 won't have it. You just re-
member, too, that I meant what 1 said. &"
And with a glance before which the
miscreant withered visibly, she moved on
One could conceive that the consciousness
of having spoken her mind freely was an
arnica to her bruises.

Repartee In Parliament

L. r. o. Common is writing '"The Humors
Of Parliament for IN. A P" and in the
current article tells this of Daniel O'Con-
nell: certain member named Thomas
Massey. who had his eye always on the
rope, brought in a ball to obliterate the
Popish affix mas" or mass and sub
stltute the good old Saxon word tide"
IN all instances as Christmas and Michael
mas, so that they should reach Christ
tlae ana 'Michaeltide," respectively
OConnell listened attentively to all the
member had to say in favor of his
scheme, and then got up and said:
since the honorable gentleman is so
anxious to wipe out the obnoxious mas
from the English vocabulary, why does
ne not make a commencement by Saxon
lzlng his own name? In that case he
would be known as Thotide Tidey." The
Dill was fairly laughed out of the House
he follows it with these two anecdotes.
LORD Monck, at one time Governor of
Canada, sat in the House of Commons for
an English constituency. An Irishman
himself, he was very patronizing to the
Irish members. Meeting Vincent Scully.
the member for Tipperary, in the lobby
one night, he slapped him on the shoulder.
and said familiarly: well, Scun, how
are your The other annoyed by this
form Of address, Tejoined: II will thank
you, my lord, not to deprive nv name
of the last letter. or if you do, pray add
1t to your own and call yourself-Mon-
key"
Vincent Scully once gave utterance in
the House to a ludicrous confusion of
thought. a landlord had been murdered
in Tipperary and during a discussion in
regard TO the crime an attempt was made
to prove that it was agrarian. Mr.. Scully
spoke of the murdered man in terms of
the highest praise. He was much be-
loved said he; he distributed food to
the starving people, and no man had a
less right to be murdered"

The list of deaths in New York from
heat during the past ten days is simply
appalling. Had Dewey lost as many men
in battle while sinking the Spanish feet
at Manila, the nation would have been
shocked; yet no impression has been made
upon the outside public, and probably
very little upon New York itself, by the
fearful rate of mortality. Meantime Sa-
vannah, several hundred miles nearer the
equator than New York. and with the
Thermometer ranging about as high as in
that city has not for years had a death
from heat Sunstroke is unknown in this
city. What gives us our immunity in this
matter? There can be no doubt that our
great number of beautiful trees contribute
TO il in no inconsiderable degree Savan-
nah is a city of bricks and cobblestones
and asphalt and granite and marble, just
as New York is; but our buildings and
streets do not store up heat from the
beamlng sun day after day, as Is the case
in New York. The cool, green leaves of
the thousands of trees make a buffer be-
tween us and the cruel sun, with the re-
suit that we escape the baking and broil-
ing and sweltering that the New Workers
must suffer because they have no trees
to protect them. our nights are almost
always pleasant and refreshing, and our
mornings begin cool, however warm the
preceding day may have been. Is il any
wonder then, that Savannahians are
proud of their trees, and that they insist
that the stock of them shah never grow
less?

THE MORNING NEWS: SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10. 1893

Several of the larger cities showed de-
creased bank clearances last month, not
withstanding there was no decrease, but
rather an increase of trade noted. Since
the volume of such clearances Is Supposed
to show the volume Of Solvent business
there has been some speculation with re-
gard to the probable cause of the falling
off. The Baltimore sun offers an expla-
nation which may pretty well cover the
case. 'The new tax on bank checks is a
sufficient explanation" the Sun says. In
stead of paying bills with checks, as has
been the custom heretofore, the people
are paying them with cash whenever pos
sible and thus the bank clearances are
decreased in volume. Meantime, it is
worthy of note that Savannahs bank
clearances for August showed a good in
crease.

As TO War Taxes.
From Harper's Weekly.

Oih pei = Weekly
They've put a stamp upon our checks
AS well as on our beer;
They've taxed the note that often wrecks
And things that bring good cheer.
They've taxed the mortgage on the roof,
They've taxed insurance too,
Untn some folks have but reproof
For schemes for Revenue
I've but word of good advice
For those who make the tax:
Why not impose some of the ice
On more deserving backs?
Why make the man who pays a debt
Add something to his score,
When there are several millions yet
'Twere well not to ignore?
Tax nuisances, not virtues There
Is sure no lack of these:
The man who talks while cutting hair
The man demanding fees
For doing what he ought to do,
And others of his ilk;
Pray why ignore the pirate crew
And put SO much on silk?
The Yellow Journalist should be
Compelled to pay two cents
On every one-cent extra he
Brings out with lines immense.
Tax all the fibs this fellow tells
That you've at last removed the spells
That weak finances bind.
Tax all the saffron clergymen,
Forgetful of their place
For every word they utter when
They would incite the race.
Tax people like our loved Van Wyck,
And Plat, and Croker too,
For every scheming little strike
Their politics put through.
Tax deals and schemes, tax everything
Which makes our folk appear
To be bound fast within a ring
You'n find there's plenty here.
Tax everywhere corruption, and
1 think you'll shortly see
The people in a chorus grand
Acclaim you spiendidly.

A special and costly kind of machinery
is necessary in the manufacture
of pneumatic dynamite guns. The
machinery, however, is also used in
manufacturing other articles. There
are only two or three shops in the
United States having such machinery. The
government wrote to them recently and
invited bids for making guns. One of the
firms replied that it would not make guns
at any price, as it had conscientious scru-
pies against making or handling war ma
terials. The firm is composed of Pennsyl-

HuRRYING PORTO RICO TROOPS.
The President Extremely Anxious to Gam
Possession of This Point.

WAsHrNGToN-(Special. 1.-The Porto
Rico expedition is to be expedite in
every way possible. Orders to this
effect have been sent to General Cop
ringer and Lee who are charged with
the formation Of this command. 1t
was the intention at first to wait the
action at SANTIAGO This plan has
been abandoned and rush orders have
been issued to all bureaus OF the war
department connected with the forma-
ton of the expedition.
The command to hurry comes direct
from the president. He is extremely
anxious to have possession OF TINS
important point and has instructed
Secretaries Alger and Long to leave
all other projects for the present and
to work on this one. The quarter
master general has been instructed to
obtain every available vessel for trans
port purposes. The vessels used IN
the Santiago expedition will be with
drawn ms soon as they land the troops
and will be hurried back to Florida to
be utilized for Porto Rico.
The information that the president
may carry the war to Spain grows
stronger each day. This will not be
done unless Spain shows that she is
not willing to surrender after the
capture of Santiago and Porto Rico.
The president has no desire to go be-
yond the limits fixed upon, but it is in
his mind to force Spain to terms by
attacking her own ports if she does
not succumb. He will not favor a
lingering war costing millions of dol
lars when the strife might be ended
by attack n S n at her own doors
| to teach her lesson.
