SUBSIDY AND THE SOUTH.
Edwin Brobston on the work of the
Maritime Congress.


Mr. Edwin Brobston of Brunswick. who
played so prominent a part in the recent
Maritime Congress- arrived in Savannah
yesterday and registered at the De Soto.
Mr.. Brobston is one OF the most promi-
nent and influential residents of Glynn
county. and is well known throughout the
state. He is a firm believer in ship-sub-
sidy. and wss one of the movers in hav-
ing the Governor issue call for the Mari
time Congress.
Mr. Brobston says it is a mistaken idea
that he favors the present subsidy bill
or that the congress Endorsed Senator
HanDa's measure. AS a matter of fact,
Mr.. Brobston says, he is in favor OF using
the tonnage Of vessels rather than their
speed, as is proposed in the bill introduc-
ed by the senator from Ohio. The gen.
tleman from Brunswick thinks that the
south would be greatly benefited by the
passage Of a ship-subsidy bill and that
shpyards would be established at every
Southern seaport There is plenty of raw
material in the South for ship-building,
and Mr. Brobston says that the enact
thing He is heartily in favor of it, ana
says that he has received letters indors-
ing the stand he has taken from pr0mi-
nent men all over the state, who have
given the question careful consideration.
In speaking of the State Fair Mr.
Brobston said that he is quite sure that
1t will be a success. He never knew
Savannah 40 undertake anything that
proved a failure. He was sure that the
present case would be no exception to
tire rule, and said that the people of
Savannah may rest assured that their
ne4ghbors in Glynn county would do all
in their power to make the fair a sue
cess. Mr.. Brobston says that he be-
ieves that South Georgia's day has
come, and that the state will hereafter
be run in the Wiregrass section. The
northern part of the state has always
ruled, he said, because it had the popu-
lation, but the last United States census
showed that there had been quite a
change in this respect.
Mr.. Brobston has been mentioned as a
probable candidate for Congress from
his district, but he says he has no idea
of entering the field for office. He is
a real estate promoter, and declares that
he does not intend to dabble in politics
for anything that he can get out Of the
game, and that he has no desire to and
would not MI any office. Mr.. Brobston
says that his sole desire to see the
swamp lands OF South Georgia replaced
with farms and farm houses, and that
when this has been accomplished. he will
feel that his highest ambition has been at
tanned.
Mr. Brobston came 90 Savannah to see
Mr. Henry p. Telmadge of New York,
president of the Southern Pine Company,
on personal business. Col. w. f. Kay
of Brunswick accompanied Mr.. Brobston.
and is also of the opinion that Savannah
will make a success Of the State Fair

KNOCKED WIFE OUT.
Split Her Head Open Because She
Upbrafded Husband.

Alice Smith, 6oIored. OF No. IA Henry
street. west. was murderously assaulted
by her husband, William Smith at their
home, yesterday afternoon. The assault
was promptly reported to police head
quarters, but Smith was not arrested IN
I'll last night He was found near his
ZONE, by Patrolman LANCE. and was
locked up on a charge of assault with
intent to murder. The woman's head was
cut open with a heavy piece OF wood, and
she was removed to the home of her
mother, Oh Bulloch street DR.. G. W.
Heriot was summoned, and put eight
stitches IN the woman's head. While her
condition is serious, the chances are
strongly in favor OF her recovery.
There appears to have been no provo
cation for the assault, which seems to
have been caused by the woman upbraid-
ing MIN for making love" TO another in
dividual. According 20 the statements
made by witnesses, the woman was cook
ing dinner when Smith came in from his
work. He cannot write. and akked anoth-
er party in the house to write letter 10
a woman for him. There were terms of
endearment in the letter, and she woman
stopped her cooking 10 enter a protest
against such conduct on the part of her
husband. Smith answered her rather
roughly and the two had a wordy battle
that lasted several minutes.
Smiths temper became aroused at some
thing the woman said. and Selling sharp
POINTED and heavy piece OF wood. ne dealt
her a severe blow across the forehead.
Such a blow would have killed an ordi-
nary person. and the woman fell TO the
floor, in an unconscious state. As soon
as the man realized what he had done
he left the neighborhood, and was no
where 10 be found when the police and
detectives arrived at the place. The in
jured woman will not be able to appear
in Police Court this morning, and the
cause will probably be continued by Re-
corder Myrick. Smith offers no excuse
for the assault.

nc positive determination.
When Mr.. Wells was seen in reference
TO this report, which mad gained quite
general circulation. he said:
No ! have rot resigned. I have the
matter under advisemert, but have not
yet acted. The interests Of sosmany OF
my FRIENDS are invo.ved in a resignation
that under no circumstances would / re-
sign without free consultation with them.

There is TO law on the statute books OF
the state which prohibits a man holding
two Offices at the same time. aud there
is no legal reason why Mr.. Wells should
not be at once representative in the gen
eral assembly and tax collector Of this
county. II - al a question Of expe.ji-
