CAUGHT IN
THE CORRIDORS

There are many as good Democrats
as are to be found in the state of
Georgia who do not approve of the
course that is being taken by Sena-
tors Bacon and Clay on the Panama
treaty ISSUE" said Mr.. Charles F.
Watson of Terrell county at the Pu-
laski last night. "They believe that
since Colombia was given a chance
and refused to take advantage of it,
that the President did the right thing
in recognizing the de facto govern
ment of Panama, if it means the build
ing of the canal.
Yet there are scores of people in
Georgia who believe that our repre-
sentatives in the United States Senate
are taking the proper course in oppos-
ing the ratification of the Panama
treaty. They maintain that under the
provisions of the Spooner resolution
that when the negotiation with Colom-
bia failed that it was the duty of the
President to negotiate with Nicaragua
and Costa Rica, looking to the build
ing of canal by the Nicaraguan
route"
1T would be the best advertisement
in the world for the city of Savannah
if several new sky-scrapers like the
new Germania Bank building should be
erected" said Mr.. w. ]. Lowenstein
of Atlanta at the De Soto last night
Il travel throughout the country, and
everywhere l go people ask me about
Atlanta's sky-scrapers, and it is the
same way with the city of Birming-
ham. Sky-scrapers go a long way to-
ward making cities, and 1 predict that
it will not be many years before there
will be number of them in Savannah.
The Germania Bank building is one of
the finest Office buildings in the coun-
try and it will cause strangers who
visit Savannah to leave with a favor
able impression and they will talk about
your city elsewhere in a manner cal
culated to do the city a wonderful lot
| of good"
ut is very hard to tell whether Judge
Parker or Senator German will receive
the vote of the Georgia delegation in
the st. Louis convention" said Mr.. ].
Will Tucker of Thomasville at the De
Soto last night. Both men are ex-
| tremely popular throughout the state
but 1 am inclined to believe that the
| delegation will be instructed to vote
| for Judge Parker Senator German is
very popular man, but it is the gen.
eral opinion that he would not be able
to carry the state of New York, which
| will be necessary in order to win a
| Democratic victory"

PROMINENT OHIOANS TO
ESTABLISH GAME RESERVE.
Will Purchase Large Tract on West
Coast of Florida.

Jacob Krollman, Charles Moser and
William Spinning of Cincinnati passed
through Savannah yesterday on their
way to Homasasa, on the west coast
of Florida, where they go as an ad-
vance guard of large party of we'll
known men from the Buckeye state.
1t is their intention to establish large
hunting and fishing preserve if the
grounds can be secured that the COM
pany has in view.
The location comprises a tract of
10000 acres on the west or Gulf coast,
and it is understood that the Ohio
ans have secured an option on the en-
tire tract.
Among those interested in the en-
terprise, and who are to follow in
a few days, are a number of the city
officials of Cincinnati and prominent
manufacturers and professional men.

n, 0. BULLS"
PREDICT IS CENTS
COTTON NOT NEAR ITS LEVEL.
srrs ONLY SHORT CROP IN SIGHT
WITH INCREASED DEMAND.

niles Cassard Says That King Cot
ton Was Never on "A Firmer
throne. and That the Spots Are
MASTER of and VIII Control the
FIXTURE Price of the Staple.
MIR. Jules Cassard, who predicted
lost fall that cotton would go to 15
certs. is still as enthusiastic bull as
ever Mr.. Cassard who is a promi-
,,ent broker on the New Orleans Ex-
change. and a member of the firm of
Couturie & Keplinger, was a visitor on
,be floor of the Savannah Exchange
yesterday.
In conversation with Morning
news reporter, he said: II see no rea-
son to change the prediction 1 made
IN regard to cotton several months ago,
indeed now L would not be surprised
10 see it so to IS cents.
THE high records that it is making
and maintaining justifles such a fore
cast. Indeed. there are many bulls
In New Orleans. and 1 might add by
way of parenthesis, that there are but
few bears in the Crescent City these
days, who freely predict that cotton
will reach 20 cents.
spots Setting the Pace.
spots are setting the pace, and will
eventually control the situation in the
future, as they are at present. The
whole question resolves itself down to
one of supply and demand, and as we
are bound to have short crop the
price will necessarily advance. The
New England and Carolina mills are
hound to have the product at whatever
cost and the only reason they have
held back is on account of finance.
If we have late spring" continued
Mr.. Cassard, the new crop will be
delayed, and there is no telling how
high prices may be forced up"
Mr.. Cassard believes that the present
crop will go ahead of 100000, but
does not think that it will be near
enough to supply the demand.
War Has Been Discounted.
THE war question has been very
we'll discounted" he said, "and even
if war is declared I do not see that it
will effect the price of cotton. OF
course, the most optimistic bull would
naturally expect to see cotton go of
perhaps a cent, but 1 think in the end
that war would be more beneficial than
disastrous.
Most of the money that has beer
made in cotton has gone into the pock-
cts of the farmers. 1 know of small
negro planters, who put out from ter
to fifteen acres, who are buying jew
elry. Everybody has money in New
Orleans, that is, everybody who has
dabbled in cotton, and 1 would not be
surprised to see their bank accounts
very much enhanced"
OverprOductiOn Not Feared.
Mr.. Cassard does not fear an over
production as he thinks that however
much the Southern farmer would wan
to plant, that labor, or rather the lacl
of labor, is sure to keep the crop down
Texas is about the only state HI
thinks that might increase it's acreage
but on account of the presence of the
boil weevil in the Lone Star State, h
does not think that the farmers ther'
will dare attempt the experiment.

Pork Packer. Who Studied Law In
Prison, Seeks to Annul Num-
Der of Court DEGREES.
John Lapique, the pork packer.
who spent the greater part of ten
wears in prison studying law and then
surprised forty-fve lawyers, officials
and citizens by suing them for
$3.50, 600 damages for malicious prose-
cution, has begun another suit in the
Superior Court.
Yesterday, in propria persona, he
fled a complaint containing twenty
eight typewriter pages and praying
fer twenty separate DEGREES and deci-
sions of court In this case. the de-
PENDANTS are not so numerous. there
being only nineteen of them, includ-
ing Abraham Ruef, who headed the
list in the other action. The DEFEND
ants are described as guardians, ad-
ministrators, attorneys. clerks, agents.
etc.. of the estate of Jean Louis Ader,
deceased, and friends, relatives and
servants of the plaintiff. They are
charged with having conspired to
coerce him to transfer valuable per-
sonal property, extorting money from
him and to conceal their own fraudu-
lent acts by bringing many insanity
and criminal charges against him.
which resulted in his Imprisonment
for periods aggregating ten years.
The action in this instance is to set
aside a dozen or more court DEGREES,
sales. ETC.. in connection with the set
tIement Of the Ader estate. He claims
that in 1895 he owned the fittings and
business of the Silver King lodging
house at 514 Bush street, worth $145O.
He claims that this was wrongruily
taken from him and sold and that ne
was forced to sign certain claims
against the Alder estate under threats
of Imprisonment. He also says he
was compelled in the same way to in
dorse a note for $1,000 to the defend
ants. He wants the note paid, the
S145o and 5000 a month damages from
July, 1895, to date.

inventoried at $4,000. was really
worth $4,000. Under the will Davies
