States Are Against Measure.


Washington, D. c., Jan. 9.-The Utah
delegation has been in conference on
the subject of reduction of tariff rates
on sugar contemplated by the Cuban
reciprocity treaty which will shortly
be taken up by the ways and means
committee.

ton, but in the last week or ten days
sentiment in favor of some reduction
to aid Cubans in growing. This seems
TO ne based on sympathetic considera-
tion Tor the condition of the Cubans.
All indications point to a very vigor-
Gus fight upon the question and the
Utah delegation will resist any attempt
to reduce the duty on sugar.
Delegations representing Michigan
and California have also been in con-
ference on this subject. Representa-
tive Sutherland has conferred with the
different members of the delegations
ard the determination among all rep
resentatives of beet sugar states is to
stand together and resist any attempt
to reduce duty. The reduction in con-
temptation is from p to 80 per cent.

From the Atchison, Kan, Daily Globe. I
This is the season when the woman
who knows the best remedies for croup
is in demand in every neighborhood.
One of the most terrible things in the
world is to be awakened in the middle
of the night by whoop from one of the
children. The Group remedies are almost
as sure to be lost, in case of Group, as
revolver is sure to be lost in case of burg
lars. There used to be an old d-fashioned
remedy for Group, known as hive syrup
and tolu, but some modern mothers say
that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
better, and q Coes not cost 80 much. 1t
causes the pi-6ient to "throw up the
phlegm' quicker, and gives relief in a
shorter time. Give this remedy as soon as
the croupy cough appears and it will pre-
vent the attack. 1t never fails and ia
pleasant, and safe to take. For sale by

Toccoa, Ga, November 3.--The Roth

several years, on yesterday afternoon re-
suited In the death of George Lee and
the serious wounding of Frank Hall.
Reports to that effect reached Toccoa
this afternoon. The acene Of the Diff
Guilty was ten miles from Toocoa, on the
Georgia side OF the TuRaloo river. Sam
Rothell was assaulted with a knife by
George Leo. Rothell attempted, 1T 10
said, TO escape from Lee without trouble,
believing that Lee was drinking. While
in the act of mounting his horse, Lee
made several cuts at Rothell, Quitting his
hat and clothes. Rothell was SO hard
pressed that his effort to escape on his
horse failed, and he then turned and
fired several shots, oneiof which passed
through Lees body Just above the heart.
death ensuing in about fifteen minutes.
Frank Hall, boy about fourteen years
of age, who Witnessed the trouble, was
shot through the shoulder by one Of the
balls from RothelPs pistol. Hall will
recover.
Tho shooting occurred up in the
mountains in one of the widest sec
tions OF Habersham county. The Lees,
and there arc now -four of Thorn left,
live on the Carolina side of Tugaloo
river. Until q few years ago the Roth
ellis also lived on the Carolina side, but
have now moved away from that section
to Toccoa and other points, all except
Sam, who moved just across the river
on the Georgia side. 1t was near Sam's
home that the shooting took place.
Heretofore there has been numerous
fights between the different members of
the families, but no killing until yester-
day.
B. @. Rothell, the father of the Roth
ell boys, is one of Toccoa's most sub
stantial business men, having moved
here about two years ago from the Caro-
lima side. The Rothell boys are all
good citizens, whose courage is un-
doubted. 1t is feared that more trouble
will occur. Sam Rothell is at his home
and has not been arrested.
