GEORGIA RAILROAD CASE.
Circuit Court of Appeals Amrms
Judge Newmnn's Decision.

Judge Nevmnn's Decision.
Atlanta, Oct. 13.-The Circuit Court
of Appeals in session here to-day
affirmed the decision of Judge William
T. Newman of the United States Dis
trict Court in the case of Controller
General w. A. Wright against the
Louisville and Nashville Railroad and
the Atlantic Coast Line, as joint les
sees of the Georgia Railroad.
The suit involved the taxation of
$50 900 of the stock of the Western
Railway held by the Georgia Railroad,
on which the controller general claim
ed taxes should be paid. AS the stock
had been in the possession of the Geor-
gia for thirteen years or more, the con-
troller general claimed back taxes
which would have amounted in total
to something like $685. 900.
The Central of Georgia also owns
a like amount of stock of the Western
New York trust company as security
for an issue Of bonds. This case was
on a different footing, but the con-
trolier general claimed the Central was
also liable for taxes.
1t was agreed to let this case stand,
however. pending the action OF the
courts in the case of the Georgia Rail-
way. The adverse decision of the Cir
cult Court Of Appeals will no doubt
cause the state to drop the claim of
taxes against the stock owned by the
Central of Georgia

FIRST FRUIT VESSEL.
The de GiorgiO Importing Company
Brings Cargo Into Charleston.

The de Giorgio Importing company
Brings Cargo Into Charleston.
Charleston, s. c.. Oct. 13.-The Nor
wegian steamship Fulton of the de
Giorgio Importing and Steamship Com
pany. arrived here to-day from Jamai-
ca with a cargo Of fruit. This is the
first vessel to be sent to Charleston by
this company, which has just effected
all arrangements to include this port
among its distributing points on the
South Atlantic coast. From now on a
regular line of steamers will be operat-
ed between Charleston and the West
Indies. The de Giorgio Importing and
Steamship Company is one of the larg-
est concerns of the kind in the coun-
try. its volume of business being, it is
said, second only to the United Fruit
Company, which recently established a
branch terminal at this city. The head
quarters of the de Giorgio Company are
situated at Baltimore.
President de Giorgio was in Charles
ton few days ago and he, together
with Messrs. NJ. A. Reach and ]. H.
Sheckles, conferred with Acting Col
lector of the Port Withers for the pur-
pose of settling the federal business IN
connection with the establishment of
the new line. Mr.. Withers stated to-
day that everything had been satisfac-
torily adjusted, and that he had been
notified that the steamship Fulton was
scheduled to reach Charleston some
time to-day.

ITALIA hassee TopfcS,

Tallahassee, Fla, Oct. l3-On July
20, 1898, Il contract was entered into
between the trustees of the Internal
Improvement Fund and the Florida
East Coast Drainage and Sugar Com
pany for the drainage, reclamation and
purchase of certain lands in the east
ern and southern portion of the state
The time for beginning work in this
great undertaking has twice been ex-
tended; and the matter came up be-
fore the board last Friday for another
extension.
Upon this occasion an application for
such extension was presented to the
board by Capt. r. E. Rose and James
NJ. Schumac cher, the Jacksonville
banker. both of whom are directors in
the drainage company. The extension
asked for was for two years from Jan.
l, 1908, and the position of the board
will probably have the effect of throw
ing upon the market some 100000 acres
of land hitherto held at the disposal
of the company.
1t is now some years since the Re-
publican party has shown any signs OF
life in this immediate vicinity, but q
few days ago a very significant con-
ference of prominent Republican
wheelhorses was held at the Leon
hotel in this city; and as a result it
soon became known that w. c. Hodges,
a young Republican lawyer and former
United States court commissioner,
contemplated entering the lists as a
candidate against the Hon. George P.
Raney for the state senate.
While Mr.. Hodges would stand little
or no chance of election, his failure
would enable him to pose before the
G. o. p. leaders as a martyr whose
wounds could be healed only by a fat
federal job. The device is by no means
new, but in this case there seems to
be hitch in the proceedings, as mp
to late hour last night, Mr.. Hodges
had, in spite of his assurances to the
local papers. failed to come to any
definite decision in the matter.

APACHE FLOATED.

Clyde Liner Brought to Charleston
for Necessary Repairs.
Charleston, Oct. 13.-The Clyde
steamship Apache, which was damaged
in a collision with the steamship Iro-
quois, of the same company, last
Thursday morning off Cummings
Point, was floated yesterday afternoon
and brought uD to the city. The YES
sci was run up on sand bank just off
East Battery where she will remain
while undergoing repairs. AS stated in
the newspapers the Apache was not so
seriously injured as was at first sup
posed. The hole in her side made by
the stem of the Iroquois did not extend
as far below the water line as was
thought at one time. 1t is believed
that the vessel can be patched up suf-
ficiently within the next few days to
enable her to proceed to New York for
permanent repairs.

NO MORE ROOM.
MilIedgeviIle Lunatic Asylum Filled
to Overlooking.

to Overlooking.
Atlanta, Oct. 13.-Gov. Gambler to-
day received the report of the trustees
of the state asylum for the insane at
Milledgeville. The trustees ask for an
appropriation of $4,000 for 1903 and
$500 900 for 1904 The asylum is still
overcrcwded and there are applications
on file for the admission of 2S2 white
and los colored patients. The number
of patients in the asylum has increased
in many instances to turn out of the
asylum the harmless but incurable lu-
natics because of lack of room.
The trustees depreciate this. but say
ii is necessary TO provide room for
those who are violent. They state that
these seemingly harmless lunatics are
like powder magazines, likely to ex-
plode IT any moment from a chance
spark, and commit any sort of crime
that is suggested. The board also asks
the Legislature to make some provision
for separating the criminal insane
from the other unfortunates who have
been guilty of no crime.

THE ACUTE STAGE.
The Georgia Railroad Engineer and
Fireman Matter Warm.


Fireman Matter Warm.
Augusta, Oct. 13.-The discussion be-
tween the engineers of the Georgia
Railroad has reached the acute stage.
Mr. Scott has been asked by the COM
mittee of engineers, Assistant Chief
Youngson of the Brotherhood, and
Grand Chief Hanahan of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen to pay
the engineers and fremen on the Geor-
gia road on the basis of mileage in
the seven engineers constituting the
original committee who were discharg-
ed. Mr.. Scott having stated that it
would require investigation and that
he could not give an answer in less
than ten days. Assistant Youngson
said they were perfectly willing
to wait ten days, but would
expect an answer then and
would be prepared to act on the
23rd for themselves if his reply was
not favorable. Mr.. Youngson said he
was quite anxious for their position not
to be construed as a threat. He said
he never favored strikes and didn't
anticipate that there would be a strike,
but that they would be ready to act on
the 23rd if the reply of General Man
aSer Scott is not in accordance with
their demands. This is understood to
be notification of strike on the 23rd
unless Mr.. Scott agrees to the mileage
pay and the return of the discharged
engineers. General Manager Scott says
the change to mileage ba-
sis would be equal to nearly 40
per cent increase in engineers
pay. Mr.. Youngson replied that it
would be only what is the minimum
wage paid by every railroad with which
the Georgia has traffic connections. The
23rd will be awaited with interest.

To the People of Newberry County:
We are trying to get a complete roll OF
those who were in the Confederate
Army, Navy or State Reserves during
the war between the States. We want
this enrolment by townships. l have
appointed committee of three from
each township to get up the enrolment.
This is to be a labor of love. I want

committees and see that no soldier,
sailor, member of the Reserves, boy
company or Citadel cadet who entered
the service is left out of the roll.
To the township committees I would

let's try to complete the work by the
first day of January, 1903. l would
ask the committee also to ask each
