CATTLE SPRAYED
BY MACHINERY.
SOON TO sUpERcEDE DIPPING.

During the coming week the first
practical test is to be given the Sea-
bury livestock spraying machine. This
is Denver invention and product which
its hackers believe is to take the place
OF dipping. For two months past a
force Of men has been at work down at
the Vulcan iron works rushing out the
machine, and by Tuesday it will be
ready to be set up. Before the end of
the week bunch of 75OOO head of cat
tie will have been collected at Corona,
out on the Burlington to be sprayed.
During the winter one of the ma
chimes was built for trial and it was
exhibited before the two cattle growers 8
associations that were held here. With
this very thorough test was made, but
it was not wholly satisfactory. A car
load of cattle affected with the mango
was shipped in and the animals Put un-
der the spray, and the results were
proved to be as effective as dipping.
The government stock inspector ex-
pressed himself as satisfied witt. the
machine.
Dipping stock has always been an ex-
pensive and laborious process, and a
cheap and easy way of doing it has been
hailed by stockmen with great satisfac-
ton. The Seabury machine was pat
ented by Dr. G. 7. Seabury, now state
veterinarian of Wyoming, but at that
time resident of Denver. The gener-
al principal is very simple, although the
machine costs s., 900. to build. 1t stands
on its own wheels and is practically a
covered tank, the floor cf which is a
moving sidewalk. The stock are driven
up chute at one end and pass through
the tank down another chute. After
being run ap the chute the animals have
no chance to balh because the moving
sidewalk carries them right on through.
On the way through the tank they are
douched with spray from 250 jets,
each with three holes, placed on all
sides of the interior. The spray is un-
der 80 pounds pressure and drenches the
animals to the skin.
The machine is operated by a traction
engine, and may be moved over the
country from one bunch of cattle to an
other, just as threshing machines are
moved in the farming districts. The
spray is similar to the dips used for
years past, composed of Beaumont oil,
lime, sulphur. etc.
TIE work of spraying may be carried
on very rapidly, as an animal can be
passed through in thirty seconds. 1t is
estimated that $4,000 head will be
sprayed during the coming week by the
machine, as after finishing with the
first bunch at Corona it is to be moved
to another part of that range. A ror-
ton of the cattle are from the D 7
ranch.
The owners charge from Is cents to
25 cents a head for spraying according
to the size of the bunch, and they pro-
pose to operate the machine in that
way, rather than sell them outright.
They believe that the big money will
be made in owning the machine. The
owners are largely Colorado men who
came into possession of the rights a
year ago 1t is proposed to turn out
the machines as rapidly as possible.
Their patents cover the United States
and seven foreign cattle countries. =

NO JOINT DEBATE,
Hoke Smith, Clark Howell and Dick
 Russell VIII Not Meet.

Atlanta, October 6.-(Special )-There will be no joint debate in Atlanta on No vember 1 between Hoke Smith. Clark Howell and Dick Rssell on the question of the governorship, neither will there be a debate between any two of the candi- dates.
 This was definitely decided today when MT. Smith sent his reply to Judge Russell declining to meet him on that occasion for reasons which have not yet been given out, because both Mr Smith. and MT. Russell are out of the city, and the letter has not been opened. This much is known. however, Mir. Smith has de- elined to meet Judge Russell
 The fact that MT. Howell had declined to meet MT. Russell on November 1 was made known yesterday, Mr. Howell giv- ing as. his reasons the same as those of his Brainbridge letter, in which he stated he had not yet formally announced his candidacy, but when he does so he will be glad to meet MT. Rssell or MT. Smith, or anybody else, and discuss with them the issues before the people.
 The only chance for a joint debate now is in the forthcoming appearance of MT. Smith and Mir. Russell at Monticello on October 30. Both will speak there on that day, and MT. Russell will ask MT. Smith to divide time. If he refuses to do so Mir. Russell will follow him on the same stump.

COMMISSION IN SESSION.
Georgia Body Hears Complaints
 Against Georgia Northern.

Atlanta. October 26-tSpecial )--The railroad commission which has been in session for two days. spent the greater portion of today in hearing the complaint of the people of Pidcock. Brooks county, against the Georgia Northern Railway Co.
 Recently, in the dead of night it is said, the Georgia Northern which ran original ly from Albany to Pidcock, took up it's tracks from Ozell to Pidcock, a distance of six miles, and built into Boston in Thomas county as its southern terminus.
 This action deprived Pidcock of one of it's railroads which the people of that growing town do not want to give up, and they are therefore fighting to keep it, or rather to get 1t back.
 They appealed to the railroad commis- sion under the rule established by that body which forbids any railroad company to abandon a depot or station, once es- tablished. without the commissions con sent. While the hearing was concluded today, it will probably be several days be- fore a decision is reached.

FIGHTS THE COMPANY.
Atlanta Water and Electric Go. Re-
 fuses Comptroller's Demands.

Atlanta. October 2s-tspecial)- )-vice President Forrest Adair of the Atlanta Water and Electric Power company, to- day wrote letter In reply to Comp troller General w. A. Wright, regarding the taxation of the company's franchise, in which he refuses emphatically to re- submit the question to arbitration.
 Vice President Adair presents an elab- crate argument in support of his claim that the comptroller general has no more right to reject the report of the arbitra- ton board than has the company, this report being final under the law.
 The board, as will be remembered, re- ported that the company had no fran ehise of taxable value. The company had returned it's franchise at $100,000, and the comptroller general assessed 1t at s424, GOO. The comptroller general rejected the find- ing of the board as being no award at all, and suggested that 1t be re-submitted to arbitration. This the company declines to do.
 Under these circumstance the comp troller general will assess the property for taxation at the figure named and proceed to levy and collect the taxes. The com pany will undoubtedly, resist this effort by injunction.

 Shortly before o'clock yesterday morn- ing a hack was seen to stop in a dark place on. Morris avenue. woman stepped out and few minutes later a man was seen to emerge.

 "Give me two tickets to Meridian" she said exctedly. When she went to pay for them she exhibited a roll of money that looked something like 'Scotty's" roll when he was trying to make New York newspapers notice him. She beckoned to the man who entered with a basket, and the pair proceeded to the train. In a few minutes 1t left, and the matter was re- ported to the police Lieut.. Hagood be- gan an investigation and found that Mosely had been robbed early in the eve ming. He pointed out the house.
