CAPT. BRADLEY OBJECTS
TO DISARMAMENT.
Sent Formal Objections to Adjutant
General Yesterday.

Sent Formal Objections to Adjutant
General Yesterday.
Capt. ]. D. Bradley, commanding
the Meldrim Tattnall Guards, forward
ed his objections to the disarmament
of his troop of cavalry to Adjt. Gen.
Robertson yesterday. In the order call
ing upon him to show cause why his
command should not be disbanded for
inefficiency, Oct. s, was named as the
last day upon which objections could
be made.
1t will be remembered that Col.
Obear, after an inspection of the troop.
a short while ago, reported to the
adjutant general that the troops was
not up to the standard and recon-
mended its disbandment The troop has
been on the ragged edge for some
time, and the action of the inspector,
though surprise to many military
men, had been expected by those close
ly in touch, with the situation.
Capt Bradley objects to the disband-
ment of his troop. He points with
pride to the showing made by the
men at Camp Pulaski, when they had
one of the largest representations in
camp. He declares he cannot agree
with Col. Obear that his command has
not improved since it's last inspection.
He cannot account for the disappear
ance of certain equipment furnished by
the state, the absence of which was
noted by the inspector. He says that
he has made every effort to locate
every piece of property issued his COM
mand by the state,
Capt. Bradley has but recently as
sumed charge of the Meldrim Tattnall
Guards. He is one of the youngest
captains in the state service, and is
thought highly of by his men. Some
little internal dissension has prevailed,
however, in the command. since his
election. This was induced by the pc
culiar circumstances attending his
election. 1t will be remembered that
Lieut.. Warnell was a candidate for
captain. and that in his absence, Sergt.
Bradley was run as dark horse, and
elected. Capt. Bradley himself was
not aware of his candidacy until he
was elected.

GOULD RAILROADS
INTO TWO SYSTEMS.

Proposed Consolidation of All the
Eastern and Western Lines.
George ]. Gould has informed some
of the largest stockholders of railroads
controlled by him that within short
time a plan for the consolidation Of all
of the. Gould companies into one Sc
curities holding corporation will be
submitted TO vote of the stockholders.
Inasmuch as the Gould Family and af-
filated interests own the CONTROL of all
of the railroads in the Gould system.
there is little doubt of a prompt in
dorsement of the plan proposed.
The Gould system now comprises H.
400 miles of railroad, and important
additions to existing lines are under
way. The largest part of the system
is west of the Mississippi Valley, and
it has been suggested that for purposes
of convenience in operation the diff
ferent lines will be combined into two
groups-a Western and an Eastern sys-
tenn.
The Western system is likely to in
clude the Missouri Pacific, the Iron
Mountain, Denver and Rio Grande,
Rio Grande Western, St. Louis South
western, Information and Great North
ern and the Texas and Pacific. Geo
graphically these railroads are closely
connected, and their aggregate mile
age is abott 1890 miles.
In the Eastern system there will be
the Wabash, the Wheeling and Lake
Erie, with its Pittsburg extension nos
under construction, the Ann Arbor,
Western Maryland, Western Virginia
Central, and Pittsburg, and some small
Ohio and Virginia lines, making in all
about 1000 miles of railroad. Presi-
dent Ramsey, of the Wabash System,
is practically at the head of all of
these Eastern lines, and he is rapidly
welding them into compact system.
The proposed consolidation of Gould
railroad interests does not contemplate
any additional issue of stocks. A
blanket mortgage may be spread over
the properties, taking the place of the
present bonded Indebtedness of the diff
ferent companies. New properties TAX
en- over will be paid for in new bonds.

ST. ANDREWS BROTHERHOOD.
MEETING IN DENVER.

The Brotherhood of st. Andrew, the
international organization of men in
the Protestant Episcopal Church hav-
ing for its object the spread of the
gospen among men, is holding it's eigh-
teenth annual convention in Denver
this week. The East has sent a liberal
representation to the convention, while
the Rocky Mountain and Pacific states
are better represented than at any
previous meeting of the order.
The officers reports show that the
brotherhood is sharing with other or
CARNATIONS of its kind a revival of in
terest and prosperity. AS a result of
the forward movement" inaugurated
at the Boston convention nearly 200
new chapters have been added during
the year. The membership and ac-
tivites of the brotherhood now extend
to Japan, Australia, Canada, England
and other parts of the world.

THE OBSERVANCE
OF SUCCOTH.

The observance of Succoth, or the
Feast of Tabernacles, still continues,
and services were held in the syna-
gogues of Savannah yesterday. At 10
o'clock there was a special service in
the Synagogue Mickva Israel and SER
mon appropriate to the joyousness and
significance of the festival was preach
ed by Rabbi George Solomons. The
music rendered by the choir was also of
a specially appropriate nature.
At the Synagogue B'Nai Birth Jacob
services were held at the same hour,
and Rabbi Horowitz delivered an adj
dress on the double significance of the
day. The sanctuaries and aisles of
both the synag ogues have been oeauti-
fully decorated with the fruits of the
harvest and with many flowers and pot
ted plants and the scene within the edi-
fees is a beautiful one. The Feast of
Tabernacles closes at sunset on the aft
ernOon of the 18th.

COBLENZ DID NOT
ARRIVE YESTERDAY.

The North German Lloyd steamship
Coblenz, which was expected to put
in at this port yesterday, did not ar
rive. The ship is expected to-day,
however, and preparations have been
made for it's reception.
1t is probable that during the stay
of the steamship here permission will
be given to those who so desire to go
on board and examine the vessel,
which is one of the handsomest of the
fleet of transatlantic steamers oper-
ated by the North German Lloyds
