 MT. Wickersham said the Western Railway carries a reserve treasury with a good amount of money for im- provements and operating expenses. He told of how there are 2,30O crossties to the mile on the average on his road. and each cost delivered on the bed 40 cents exclusive of the labor of laying. The average life of a tie in this part of the country is six years.
 Mir. Wickersham declared that the present mileage of the Western Rail- way of Alabama cannot be duplicated for twenty years for any amount of money.
 If s1OO.OOO per mile were used" said the speaker, it could not in five years duplicate the road that I have the honor 10 represent.
 He said the Western Railway is a road of some thirty or forty years standing. The roadbed has attained to an exceeding degree of efficiency In that period and There Is no reason for passengers over the Western to spill tears when leaving their loved ones
 He referred to tre minimum of wrecks on his road. He also stated the policy of his road not to charge oper- ating expenses against intra-state

 MT. Smith reminded the chairman that in considering Western Railway rates the chairman should not confuse 1t with the Atlanta and West Point Railroad. as he was inclined to do. ap- parently. The two roads are entirely separate and are operated together only for economy.
 Much time was spent on a discussion of cotton, domestics. calicoes and sim- liar commodities in Alabama and Geor- gia and the rates that apply to them.
 The investigation here was diverted to quite a discussion between the chair man and w. A Winburn. of the Gen. tral of Georgia Railway, on the labor question on the farms.

An TnterestInu sItuntion,

Negro Republicans had a meeting the other night and it was naturally thought that they would to man come together and support Rix M. Rob lnson for the mayoralty. MT. Robin son has been a good Republican all hls life, has been identified with that party both in local and national affairs, and has held Republican appointments, having at one time held the postmas- tership by an appointment from MT. Mckinley.
 Now 1t transpires that the party of his political choice has repudiated him; at least that is the report, and there Is no telling just where the organiza- ton of Republicans will hang on or be found when the city election time rolls around just a month from today. The announcement was first made by some who were at the meeting that Robin son had been repudiated. but others deny that this is just exactly true, and to that endA Asay that they "are free to act as theys swish.' It is known how ever that there will be a great fall ing off of Republican support for MT. Robinsonk and just where he expects to receive hjs support is not declared The situation is a complicated one, to be sure.
 On the other hand, the candidates on the Democratic side are working fast. Each of them is out among his friends hourly and the campaign has assumed an interesting aspect

Followers of the delusive game of chance, both white and black, in this city, are doing considerable worrying these days on account of the attitude of Governor Broward on this evil Upon the assumption of the duties of his office, Governor Broward addressed in the State, calling upon them to sup press gambling by all possible means. and one of these letters has found its way to the sheriff of this county, Mir. Van Pelt. That official has been exceedingly active since the receipt of this letter. and the most severe pen Rlties are meted out by the judge of

A DlomOnd RObbery,

A strange robbery, in which the thief obtained several thousand dollars worth of diamonds, is now being work ed out by the officers The report was received at the police station last night that the residence of J $. Beard, on the outskirts of the city, had been ent- cred and the diamonds belonging to member of the family had been stolen. These diamonds were in a jewel case in the ladys room, and just how the thief gained access to the room is pug zling the officers The diamonds have been minutely described, and should :he thief offer, them for sale or attempt to dispose of them in any manner, the fact will be known at once. The pawn shops are being watched closely.
 This robbery is one of series of such acts which have been committed In the city lately. For the past two weeks a shrewd burglar has been mak- ing slife unpleasant at night for the residents in the thirly policed dis tricts. and last night, while there were no reports of stealings. the officers kept up a steady patrol in all parts of the city. several plain clothes men having been detailed for this service. This will be kept up constantly, for it is recognized that this is the only way to stop such thefts.

Thief Obtains Valuable Diamonds in Haul at PensacOla--An Inter- esting Political Situation
 Anent MayOralty Race.

Pensacola, Fla. May 4.-(Specia1. J. E. B. Ashley, white, a paiPhr by oc- cupation, Is in the city jail on a charge of having robbed his boarding house matron, Mrs. T. Kent, of the sum of $95 yesterday. The young man is recently from Tampa and from that city comes story which impelled the officers to hold him for investigation. This story is that Ashley had deserted his family at Tampa and had obtained money under false pretences, such charges having been made against him after he had left that Florida city. A circular bearing his description and a good photograph was received here a few days ago and when shown to the prisoner he said he was the man want ed.
 Mrs Kent had no direct evidence against Ashley, but it is believed that this will be raked up in time. The officers had the case against him so far. as the larceny of money is con- cerned, postponed until a future date so that any evidence obtainable in the meantime could be used against him.
 The officers are of the opinion that Ashley is not straight, since he has assumed several names since coming to this place. He is a member of the painters union, and local men have ln- terested themselves in his behalf.

"Wednesday all of the directors Of
the California and Hawaiian Sugar Re-
filming Company arrived at Crockett,
and spent the entire day there, inspect

From what can be learned as a re-
suit of their inspection, it is stated
that the mill will again resume bust
ness, and that a large number of men
will be employed
Contracts have been signed up with
the farmers of Stanislaus county and
at the present time there are about g.
