Looks Like Peoples, Russell
and Powell VIII Be
New Judges
RESULT YET IN DOUBT
Early Returns Received in Atlanta
Last Night Shows Many of the
Candidates to be Running
Neck and Neck.

Atlanta, Oct. st is impossible
with The returns received early to-
night, to give the winners for the
new court of appeals, as several OF
the candidates are running in all sec
tons Of the state, while others are
only polling a heavy vote in their i'm.
mediate sections. However, from
early returns received from number
of coGnties, it seems that Judge Fl
g. Peoples, of Atlanta, Judge A. G.
Powell. of Blakely; and Judge X. b.
Russell. of Winder, will be the win
ners. although the race is not by any
means won by them. Early returns
only Indicate that they are running
better in all sections Cf the state.
1t is also probable that Judge Thos
j. Ch9ppell, Of Columbus, ill make a
good race and if he is rot elected he
will closely push the winners; judge
Willingham is running well, but many
consiuer him practically out of the
race. Judge Thos. Green, of Athens.
it seems, has made very good race
and MAY be among the leaders. 1t is
known that he has carried many
counties.
Ali returns indicate the election af
Judge Peoples and nearly every
county that has so far been heard
from las given him a good vot4.
Judge Powell is making an excellen;
race in the southern section of the
state, and seems to be sure winner,
although his small vote III north Geor-
gia may count against him.
With sixteen candidates in the race,
all carrying their respective sections.
it will. cake probably the official vote

is only surmised from the early re-

PRESIDENT EMH|
OFDARIEN & w
WRITES FULl
Telling What Will be ASKED
Extend it to Brunswick
ing Meeting With

Last Sunday morning The News
printed an article relative to the ex-
tending of the Darien and Western
railroad to this city, in which it was
stated that President Emerson anu
other officials of the road woula
shortly visit Brunswick for the pu%
pose Of comforting with the busine
men of the city.
1t was also announced that Pres
dent Emerson would. in a few days
write a letter to a Brunswick man
interested in the extending Of the
road. setting forth his plans and ask
ing the people to make a proposition
and arrange a meeting with the Off
GERS of the road. This letter was re-
ceiyed yesterday and President Emer-
son states the present status of the
road in plain language. He asks foc
a meeting with the people of Bruins
wick and a proposition from them. and
no doubt this meeting viii be a.
ranged at once. He says he is ready
and willing to meet at any date named
by the local people.
Following is a copy of the letter.
which should be of interest to every
person in Brunswick who has the in.
terest of the city at heart:
Following our conversation ani
complying with your request beg to
say now that the Georgia Coast &,
Piedmont r. r. is in operation be-
tween Darien & Collins, we are pre-
pared to consider the question of eX
tensions.
81 have devoted a good deal or
thought, time and study and discussed
the proposition of an extension from
Darien to Brunswick very carefully
with my associates.
AS a general proposition, the ex-
tension would be an advantage to our
railroad because it would add the
population located in the eastern part
of Glynn county and at Brunswick t.
our line; it would also give us con
nection with railroads and with steam
ship lines which we have not at the
present time.
IF we consider it from a traffic
stand point the value of the extension
is problematical. We can obtain the
same rate per ton or per thousand
feet for hauling from Tattnal COUNTY
to SaFelo or Darien, as we would for
hauling fifteen miles further to Bruins
wick. We get the same division on
through freight from the Atlantic
Coast Line R. r. aDd the Seaboard
K. r. at our present junction points
as if we go to Brunswick. The ad-
vantage of going to Brunswick with
the freight originating from up coun-
try is a debatable one from a revenue
standpoint.
"The important question in the pro
position is the amount of freight
which will be shipped out of Bruins
wick and to points on or beyond ou:
line. This. of course, depends upon
three things:
First. the Brunswick rate from
New York and similar points com
pared with Savannah and other COM
peting points; second, the prices at
which your merchants can sell their
goods, or rather the profit which they
are willing to make, and third. the
variety and quantity of stock which
they carry. If Brunswick can assure
us that it will do a considerable
wholesale business it viii materially
strengthen the proposition from al
freight stand point. We may be as
cured of this in not only one, but seY-
eral ways, which | shall be glad -

Judge Henry c. Peoples. of Atlanta,
Judge Barlow S. Willlngham, of For
syth, and Judge a. 6. Powell, of
Blalely, were the successful candi-
dates for justices of the new court OF
appeals in Glynn county yesterday, all
three OF them having a good majority
over the next closest candidate, and
it is likely, from early reports over
the state, that two of the successful
candidates in this county, Judges
Peoples and Powell. have also won
over the state
The primary here yesterday was an
unusual and unique one. A. least a
half dozen of the candidates had sup
porters in Brunswick, and of all the
swapping Of ballots, knitting of can
didates and general switching around.
the contest for judges took the lead.
There were sixteen in the field ana
the politicians were given a good
opportunity to switch one candidate
for the other and there was q general
mixup all during the day. When a
voter started to the polls he was
stopped from the front of the court
house to the balloting window and
nine cases out of ten, changed his
ticket a half dozen times before finally
casting 1t. The contest, however. was
good natured and was really enjoyed
by the politicians.

dIdW largely.
The important question to the rail,
road company, after considering the
| traffic is the cost of construction.
Without the data at hand which comes
from making a careful survey l can
only estimate in the broadest way,
what the cost will be. An inspection
| OF the government maps shows that
we will be obliged to build about five
| miles OF trestle across the islands
south OF Darien. TO comply with thH
government regulations we would have
to build three draw-bridges, which
will cost anywhere from $G0,0O0 to
100000 each. | have no means at
the present time to estimate what the
terminal will cost because | do NOT
,, know exactly where it will be desira-
bic to build nor what your realty
values are.
In order that we may arrive at
some conclusion in this matter | sug.
8est the following course OF proce-
, dure. We will make a careful survey
from Darien to Brunswick and deter
mine where it will be most desirable
to build the line and the cost Thereof.
The people of Brunswick board OF
trade or city council to appoint d
committee which will ascertain ana
determine what can be done in the
way of terminals, rights of way and
bonus to Offset the extraordinary
(When compared with the average
construction in the south) cost OF
this proposed railroad.
Having in hand a memorandum
saying exactly what Brunswick ca
and viii do to induce tie railroad to
build and detailed estimate of tee
cost we can then very readily deter
mine whether it will be to the advan
tage of our company to make the ex-
tension.
Il may say to you that 1t is the
policy of our company to offer all
legitin ate and proper aid for the de
velopment of the territory which our
railroad serves. We expect to spend
considerable money in advertising and
in soliciting eXigration and in estab-
fishing industrial enterprises. Bruins.
wick IS port of trade and it will be
to the advantage OF railroad one hun
dred miles long to terminate at a port.
Conversely it will be an advantage to
have a railroad because of the facill-
ties it will offer to reach directly a
settled and productive country not
now available to the merchants OF
Brunswick.
zone item, perhaps, will be men.
toned specifically: Darien is the larg
est town the shortest distance from
Brunswick, and the building of this
railroad will make Darien practically
suburb of Brunswick.
IF the line be built ! would advo-
cate oaily service running into ami
out of Brunswick morning and even
ing, enabling all points ON our line
to reach and be reached from Bruins
wick and return the same day
81 shall be glad to confer with You
or any committee at any time thal
will be mutually convenient.
Yours truly,

BILLIARD CHAMPS
Willie Hoppe and Jake schaf-
er "The Wizard" Play
Tonight.
Associated Pres. to The Evening Time.

Annotated Press to The Evening Times.
New York, Oct. 17.-Before hundreds
of students of the green table sport
Willie Hoppe, the youthful wonder
with the cue who wrested the worlds
title from Maurice Vignaux, and Jacob
Schaefer, the aged veteran, long known
as the wizard" will decide the
worlds championship at the eighteen
inch balk line, one shot in, the mas
ters' game of billiards, in the Madi-
son Square Garden concert hall to-
night. The game will be at 500 points,
and the winner will receive gold
trophy emblematic of the champion
ship, in addition to a purse.
For over a month each of the prin-
cipals has been training and practi-
cling for the big strain he will have to
undergo tonight. Hoppe has been
playing steadily against the old short
stop, Edward Mclaughlin, and is
tuned up to excellent form. He feels
quite certain of holding the honors,
but Shaefer is out for the title, and
has been training faithfully at Nc
Graw's academy since his return from
West Baden. On account of his youth,
his victories over Vignaux and Slosson
and his great exhibitions, Hoppe has
been made a favorite in the betting,
though the veteran Schaefer has many
ardent admirers who are disposed to
take all the Hoppe money offered.
Another match of scarcely less in
terest is slated for tomorrow night,
when George Slosson and George SUIT
ton will contest for the 1872 worlds
championship emblem, now held by
SlOssOn.

JOE CANS A FISTIC ACCIDENT.

Almost all pusilistics have had
humble beginnings. but the career of
Joe Cans. the lightweight champion,
is unique. Cans began life as cleaner
OF fish in a Baltimore market and
would never have been in the fighting
business today but for an accident
Several years ago well known
sporting man went to Baltimore and
induced Manager Herman OF Kernan's
Monumental theatre. to run boxing
shows in the Monumental amphi-
theatre after the regular performance.
In order to whet the appetite of the
crowd for some of the preliminary
and star bouts battle royal between
negroes was put on.
Although the sum offered was small,
almost every negro with fistic ambi-
tons in Baltimore entered, and at
every show these battles royal made
a big hit. One night Cans. who had
just entered from work. made an
application to enter one of the con-
tests. He was asked whether he had
any experience. and he frankly adj
mitted that he had not but was willing
to try.
But you know what these battles
royal are. don't you?" he was asked
You've got to fight and mix it up all
the time, and if you quit you don't
get anything. see?" Since those days,
however. the dusky champion has
found it quite profitable to quit on
several occasions.
But to get back to Cans start The
negro saw and went on. He was very
successful and created a good impress
sion.
After that Cans entered in the pre-
liminary bouts. for which he received
the munilficent sum of S. whether he
won or lost. Cans had Il peculiar
style. while even at that time he had
sleep producing punch which he de-
livered at random. His best blow
then was a wicked drive to the stom-
ach. and when it landed it was usual
ly necessary for the referee to count
ten on the negro's opponent.
