CATTLE A NUISANCE ON
WEST GARDEN STREET

Numerous complaints have been
heard recently regarding the cattle
running at large on West Garden
street, and last night it reached the
limit. About midnight numerous resi-
dents along that thorOughfare were
awakened by cows. who were grazing
il that section. From the noise. it
appeared that nearly every animal had
a bell attached to its neck, and this
awakened those residing in that sec
ton. One party, who telephoned The
Journal, stated that it seemed as
though at least fifteen head of cattle
were grazing there. He had telephon-
ed the police station, and expected
that a mounted officer would be sent
to the point to drive the cows away
The stock catcher was not spoken of.

ASKED To- AID
FLORIDA PORT
GEORGIA LEGISLATURE APPEAL
ED TO FOR BENEFIT OF THE
HARBoR AT CARA
BELLE,

The Jacksonville Metropolis says
The Georgia senators and representa-
tives in congress will be urged by the
legislature to use their influence to
ward securing the necessary apprO
priation for improving the harbor at
Carrabelle, Fla.
While at first blush it might seem
beyond the province of the Legislature
of Georgia to manifest interest in the
harbor of another state. those who
understand the conditions will realize
how deeply southwestern Georgia in
particular is interested in the de-
velopment of Carrabelle. This is the
harbor to which the new line, the
Georgia, Florida and Alabama, which
taps some of the most valuable terri
tory in southwest Georgia, reaches.
The extension of the road northward
is being pushed forward, and in time
this system promises to be of vast i'm
pOrtance to the entire state of Geor-
gia. With the proper improvements
Of the harbor at Carrabelle, that port
will in time be very valuable to this
state.
Resolutions memorializing congress
in the interests of this enterprise nave
been introduced in the Georgia legis-
lature, says the Atlanta Constitution,
by Messrs. Donaldson and Brinson, OF
Decatur county, Georgia. They read
as follows:
Whereas, The legislature for the
State of Florida, at its last session,
passed a resolution memorializing con-
gress to appropriate money for the
purpose of deepening the channel at
Carrabelle harbor, Florida; and,
Whereas The said State of Florida
is southern state, and a sister state
OF Georgia, and said harbOr is only a
short distance from the border line of
said state of Georgia; ard,
Whereas, Should said harbor be
deepened it would be of incalculable
benefit not only to the State of Flori-
ida, but also to the State of Georgia;
be it
Resolved, BY the House of Repre-
sentatives, the Senate concurring,
That our senators and representatives
in congress are hereby requested to in
troduce in the next United States con-
gress some suitable measures towards
making a sufficient appropriation OF
money for Carrabelle haFbor, to deep
en- the channel of said harbor so as to
allow seagoing vessels and other water
crafts to take on and discharge their
cargoes at the wharyes of the said
town of Carrabelle, Fla, the appropria-
lions heretofore made by congress be.
ing wholly inadequate for said pur-
pose, which is materially to the detri-
ment of the great business interests
of the state of Florida. and to the
state of Georgia, and especially to the
counties of the state ofaGeor-
gia, lying contiguous to that section.

Tallahassee, July 6.-Since the visit

RUSSIAN OFFICIALS SAY
SITUATION is GRAVE

st. Petersburg, July 6.-Inquiry az
the admiralty this morning failed to
confirm the report current last night
that the Kniaz Potemkine mad already
left Theodosia. Admiral Wirenius,
chief of the naval staff, informed the
Associated Press that according to the
latest advices the battleship is still at
Theodosia.
What will be done?" asked the
correspondent.
I'VE cannot tell you," was the re-
ply. 1.-The whole affair Is in the hands
of Vice-Admiral Choukin and he has
not communicated his plans to us.
Admiral Kruger's ships were due to
leave Odessa yesterday afternoon.
They should now be arriving at Sc.
bastopol"
DO you think that upon their ar
rival Vice-Admiral Chouknin will de
spatch the squadron to capture the
Kniaz POtemkine?"
I'VE do not know what he will do.
In my opinion the easiest and prompt.
est solution would be to send tor
pedo boat to sink her and l have adj
vocated that course. The ship is not
in the hands or her crew, but in the
hands of the revolutionary committee
which went on board at Odessa. Thev
have issued high-sounding manifesto
to the powers. They wanted to be
considered insurgents. l presume their
next step will be to ask for. recogni
ton as belligerents. They know thfr
heads are forfeited and will stop at
nothing. In the eyes of the law they
are outlaws and pirates. The first
thing necessary is to make an example
of the crew and restore discipline in
the Black Sea feet"
Admiral Wirenius said there was no
truth in the report from Vienna that
four hundred Russian sailors had de.
stroyed a cruiser and sought refuge
on board a British steamer bound for
Constantinople. No Russian cruiser.
the admiral added, has been DESTROYED
so far as he knew.
