BUYERS TO MAKE A
KICK ON new RULES.
Governing The Shipment of Com
press Cotton.
FEES CHARGED BY RAILROADS.
For Concentrating Cotton as Well as
Plan of Issuing Bills Lading Causes
Loud Protest Among Albany Buy
ers. Meeting Held

Americas warehousemen and cotton
buyers have for some time been dis
cussing among themselves the new
regulations recently adopted by the
railroads governing the shipment of
cotton, but as yet no formal action in
the way of protest has been taken by
the trade here.
The Concentration fee and the
new rule governing the issuance of
bills lading are two of the main points
to which exception is taken.
AS to the concentration fee" a
charge of 10 cents per bale is to be
made upon cotton stopped at the
Americus presses for compression.
In the aggregate this will mean sever
al thousand dollars, all of which, in
the end, comes out of the farmer.
This rule was never IN force in Geor-
gia before this season.
Heretofore all cotton shipped to
Americus from nearby points was Civ
en- through rates to Savannah, with no
extra charge for stopping it here or
elsewhere to be pressed.
The new rule governing the is
suance of bills of lading also comes in
for vigorous kick from shippers of
the feecy staple,
Under this rule, bills Iading will
not be issued until the cotton has
been pressed and is actually aboard
cars for shipment. Heretofore ship
pers could put their cotton in the
press and secure bills lading from the
railroads by presenting compress the
receipts.
This plan greatly facilitated bust
ness, as bills lading were thus turned
over to the bank one or two days ear
lier than they can be now.
The cotton men and merchants of
Albany, who like those of Amerious
are affected by these new regulations,
are protesting loudly thereat as we'll
as other alleged grievances and dis
ordinations put upon that city quite
recently by the several railroads.

We shall try to protect you from
poor shows, and will not recommend
any show which we do not believe to be

IT CREATED MUCH EXCITEMENT
How Report of Buffalo Tragedy Was
Received.

The first news of the attempt upon
President McKinley's life yesterday
afternoon was received here over the
Western Union lines and, as might be
expected, caused a profound sensation
in business circles.
Bulletins were at once sent out,
though the first information concern
ing the tragedy was meagre.
Quickly the news spread over the city
and down in the business district little
else was discussed during the after
noon. And upon all sides were heard
expressions of deepest regret.
Everyone was eager for every bit of
information, and the Times Recorders
telephone brought many inquiries from
all over the city.
Finally there came fuller particulars
of the terrible tragedy.
This bat confirmed the first news
given out and which many hoped would
be contradicted. All were 10th to be-
lieve it true.
President Mckinley is generally es-
teemed in the South, and nowhere more
than in Americus. It was felt here that
his tragic death would prove a calamity
in more ways than one. He is indeed
a good man.
The effect of his dea4h upon business
is, perhaps, problematical but would
undoubtedly be adverse, to greater
or less extent
The assassin had his deadly pistol
wrapped in a handkerchief and shot the
President while in the act of shaking
his hand at public reception in Buff
falo. The man lives in Detroit, and
was arrested.
Not since the ASSASSINATION of Presi-
dent Garfield has such excitement been
created throughout the entire country.
