Mayor Meldrim paralyzed the city en-

treasurer that no more due bills be ac-
cepted from anyone, officials or employees
which means that the city's employees will
be able, hereafter. to secure salary only
on the day on which il Is due
The due bill business is said to have be-
come quite nuisance at the treasurer's
office, many employees drawing practically
their whole salaries before pay day Not
being content TO wait until they had earn
ed their money, some drew frequently ia
advance. City officials are said to have
been among the leading offenders in this
respect.
IL was very nice thing for the city en-
ployes 10 gel due bill cashed occasionally
when they might need the money for a
special purpose, but their abuse of the
privilege has brought it to an end. Nearly
every city administration finds il neces-

or later. and this one will probably only
hold good until a new administration
comes into power.

COMPANY H TO co TO TAMPA.
Tybee VIII Then BE Left With n
Garrison of Sixty Men.

The company of infantry of the regular
month, will pass through Savannah to-
day en- route to Tampa Marching orders
have been received bt the company from
Atlanta, headquarters of the department
of the Gulf, and the information of the
railroads was that it will come through
to-day.
The company Is H of the Fifth Regi-
ment Capt. Bailey. 1t was ordered to Ty-
bee some time ago by Gen. Graham, in
command of the department, and the men
have been doing guatd duty about the
camp and the fortifications since they have
been on the island.
The departure of the infantry will leave
only one company at the post. This will
be the battery of heavy artillery, with
Capt. Davis in command. There are about
sixty men In this battery. 1t is not know n
just what number of men would be re-
quisite for the proper handling of the four
guns of the fertilization in action, but it
is judged that it would be necessary to
have many more than sixty.
An expression of Gen. Graham, some
weeks ago, when he was here, on an in
spection trip TO Tybee, indicated that a
garrison Of some several hundred men
would be necessary for the defense of the
station If this is true, the removal of
the Infantry will leave the city in a had
fix, if an attack from a Spanish fleet is
to come, and the guns have to be manned
by not more than one-fifth the number Of
artillerymen who should be there.
A movement of troops, according to the
information of the railroads, was to begin
yesterday from Chickamauga for Tampa.
1t was not known just how many would
be moved. but the roads were prepared
to handle large force. The trains of SOL
diers win be turned over this morning 10

Surface.
The laying of gravel on Bull street has
now reached to Sixth street, though the
pavement has not been rolled that far.
The gravel has been put down on the last
several blocks to a depth of only about
four inches, the intention being that If
this does not make good roadway sur
face of three or four inches of Augusta
gravel will be laid on top of the Liberty
county gravel, and In this way a good
pavement will be assured.
Alderman Davis chairman of the street

if the surface of Augusta gravel would
be given anyway and replied that 1t would
not unless the Liberty country gravel
should prove to be a failure, in which case
the Augusta gravel would be used

WHAT WAS SAID At THE FAIR

Special Correspondence OF the STANDARD.
Omaha, Sept. Following yester-
days brief telegram in reference to

written in order 10 give a summary of
the things that We're said at the eXer-
c!ses held in the auditorium. Mr..

ernor Holcomb of Nebraska, who de-
liyered an address Of welcome on be-
half Of the state. He assured the visit

ored that they had come SO far TO off,
c!ally participate in the exposition. The
governor declared that ne was welcom-
ing ~neighbors from a state which was
an empire In itself, the Pennsylvania
of the West. The governor concluded
with a compliment TO Governor Smith
and a few formal words Of welcome.
Governor Smith expressed great
pleasure at the greeting extended. The
conduct Of a war and the carrying
on of a great exposition had shown the
vast possibilities OF the who'll country,
and this power in diversified directions
could be exercised on a great scale by
any one Of the great states Compos-
ing the United SAdkE-s III what one
state could do, any several could do,
the exposition was a magnificent evil

been invited TO participate. SO long as
Nebraska remained So productive a
state. so long as she had sucn leaders
as Governor Holcomb and William j..
Bryan Ccheers) Montana would grasp
her by the hand and own her as an
elder sister. II was with evident pride
that the governor discussed the sou
es of his state, the third in size in the

resources. the mines yielding s53. o00. 600
