BRYAN's Contested ELECTION
The Vote at Ways station Alleged to
Have Been Manipulated.

The Vote at Ways station Alleged to
Have Been Manipulated.
The contested legislative election case
from Bryan county promises to be OF
more than ordinary interest Both of the
parties to il are Democrats, and the leg
islative committee which hears the evil
dence is likely to look into the charges
with more than the usual care.
Judge Brown secured the certificate of
election on an alleged majority of two
votes over Mr.. Strickland VINO is contest
ing on The ground that he was counted
out by the manipulation of the ballots in
the Ways station precinct. Several times
in the past there have been charges made
of unfair work at this precinct and the
narrowness, of the majority claimed for

to believe that he can make a good show.
ing before the legislature. Evidence is
already being got in shape for the fight at
Atlanta.
One thing that adds materially to the
interest of the contest outside of Bryan
is the position the two candidates occupy
in reference TO the judgeship of the new
Atlantic circuit Judge Brown is in favor
Of Mr.. Seabrook's candidacy and Mr.
Strickland IS in favor of Mr.. Cam. The
unseating of Judge Brown, provided it oc-
CURED early enough in the session of the
legislature, would be a distinct loss to one
candidate and as much of a gain for the
other.

iE TROOPS ARE COMING.

heard anything at Jacksonville that might
tend to cause the movement to be called
off, and they feel no uneasiness when no
message had arrived.
The officials have no doubt the movement
VIII take place. They say the govern
ment would never have gone to the length
IL has in allowing The city TO make prepa-
raiions for the coming of the troops to-
back out at this late date. Too much
money has been spent for anything of thai
kind 20 happen. They believe t is merely
, a matter Of delay. something that is by
no means infrequent in army movements,
and that il viii not be long before the reg
lmentS VIII begin to move.
Some of the officials were asked when,
m their opinion, the movement would
start. They have stopped expressing op.n-
ions on this point, however, and they
would not even hazard a guess. They only
say they are ready 20 handle The troops
whenever che corps commander tells them
they are ready 60 be moved. They said,
though, that the movement will scarcely
start to-day, or they would have received
some notice TO that effect. 1t is likely that
the roads will be advised day or two be-
fore it begins as they will be expected TO
have the equipment N waiting. As much
time as this is not required under the con-
tract that exists between the government
and the roads. bur the commander of the
corps Will readily give greater notice Of
the first movement, II he can do so, than
is called for in the contract.
