MIR. TEAGUE ANNOUNCES
F. ANDERSON NOT IN
 RACE FOR MAYOR.
Friends of Captain A. G. Forbes Or ganize Club in His Interest.
 Major Steiner May be in Running.

The developments yesterday in the municipal political situation were the announcement of the candidacy for Mayor of Alderman w. M. Teague, a statement from Charles F. Anderson that he would not be candidate and an earnest movement to organize a club to support the candidacy for Mayor of Captain A. c. Forbes.
 It was expected that the close of the week would bring out formal an- nouncement from at least five of the men whose names have been so fre- quently and so persistently used in connection with the mayoralty.
 Captain Forbes, who made his an- nouncement Saturday morning, Alder man Teague, whose announcement is made in the advertising columns of The Advertiser this morning, and Judge Francis c. Randolph. who an- nouhced some time ago are the only ones who have thus far made good' as the saying goes.
 Alderman J. K. Jackson and Alder man J. J. Sullivan, several days au- thorized reporters of The Advertiser to say that they would be candidates for Mayor but no announcement has yet been made by them over their sigma tures
 Major R. E. Steiner, whose name has been used as a probable candidate for Mayor returned yesterday morning from protarcted trip to New York.
 T have the matter of running for Mayor under consideration" said Ma tor Steiner to a representative of The Advertiser. T may maKe definite announcement of my decision to my friends on Monday"
 Charles P. Anderson who made q sensational kx.rn ago, coming within twenty-five votes of defeating Mayor Carr, declared unequivoeally last night that he would not be candidate for Mayor.
 T confess" said MT. Anderson, that have been considering the matter. have reached the conclusion that I can not give my time to a campaign. It Is a high honor to be elected Mayor of Montgomery, but I must forego the eff fort. My business demands all of my time. I shall take no part in the cam paign."
 MT. Teague contented himself with arranging for his advertising matter.
 When a representative of The Ad- vertiser called at the residence of MT. Teague last night and asked for a statement to the public of his policy if elected. MT. Teague sent him mes sage that he did not care to make a statement at this time. He said he might prepare a statement in a few days.
 Mir. Teague is one of the leading bus mess men of Montgomery. He Is wholesale grocer and has other large business interests. He led the ticket for Alderman-at-large two years ago.
 The statement published yesterday morning from Captain Forbes met with popular favor. Early in the morning business and professional men began a canvass of the city to secure members for Forbes Club" Last night they had secured over 200 members.
 There is no doubt that the municipal campaign is on. From now until April politics will have the call locally over other subjects.

DISEASES OF PANAMA.
YELLOW FEVER EXIST IN THE CA
 NAL ZONE.
While Current Reports of its Precedence Are Exaggerated There Is No Doubt of the Presence of
 the Pest.

Washington, Jan. 21.--Un official ad- vices from representatives of the gov ernment in the Panama canal zone dated at the end of the first week are to the effect that while the current re- ports of the prevalence of yellow fever on the isthmus are exaggerated, the pest does exist and some apprehen- sion Is expressed that if it continues to spread there will be an exodus of the canal builders.
 The cases so far developed are said to have probably been preventable had proper precautions been adopted. But the large influx of people of the north unacqualnted with tropical climatic dangers and the best means to avoid them, probably has afforded greater opportunity for the spread of the fever, American women are particularly said to be careless and they don the lightest muslin shirt waists in the evening and are surely bitten by fever bearing mos Quitoes.
 The canal commission has declined to grant the request of the resident medical officers for the establishment of a meteorological labratory which would involve an expenditure of about $1.000,000 to begin with, on the ground that the temporary stay of a large number of Americans on the isthmus would not warrant the government in embarking on an extensive and pro- longed study of tropical disease, which may be of great future value, but would not be nearly as important as the adoption of comprehensive and purely sanitary measures, based on the present medical association of medical officers.
 It also was thought expedient to de- cline a recommendation from the medi- cal department for the appointment of 100 surgeons and for the immediate erection of a hospital for the accommo- dation of 1900 patients, both measures being regarded as far beyond the present needs of the limited popula- tion of the zone.

Cetters tO tbe Gdftor
Railroads Assisting Farmers.
 OnnliIrn h Ian

OPOAAAos <AAu-, volAs GAs Editor The Advertiser:
 All recognize and admit the fact, that railroads are great agencies and i'm strumentalities in the development and advancement of country.
 Under the able and intelligent super vision and administration of c. A. Wickersham and R. E. Lutz, the At lanta and West Point Railroad and the Western Railway of Alabama are do- ing all in their power to assist the ditions and problems that now con front their agricultural interests. Re- alizing that the almost exclusive cul- tivation of cotton has caused an over production of that commodity, which has caused a decline in price that threatens our section with ruin, they see that the remedy is the reduction of the acreage in cotton and the diversi- hcation of crops. It is absolutely nec- essary for the Southern farmers to plant less cotton and more of other things With this object in view the officials of the above roads have had printed in beautiful manner. scien- tific pamphlets on such important sub jects as Truck Farming" Plant Food" and Principles of Profitable Farming" and are having them dis tributed among 6,S75 of the most in- telligept farmers from Selma to Att lantas En' addition they have subscribed for and are sending The Southern Ru- ralist and. the Southern Cotton Planter to 1875 farmers along the lines of these two roads. These papers are de- voted to the diversiflcation of the ag- ricultural interests of the South. These roads will spend between $4,O00 and s5,000 in this manner West Point Road has established an experimental farm at Oakland, Ga., and other such farms will be estab- lished. They will be practical object lessons of what can be accomplished in Southern agriculture and will give much valuable information to our far mers.
 The enterprise and intelligence of the officials of these roads, in assisting in the solution of the problems that confront the South, are worthy of the highest commendation.
