Mrs Terrell Held The Keys.

Atlanta, Ga, July 1.-Outwardly all
was harmony Saturday at the state cap
itol, where Hoke Smith was Inaugural
ted governor, but there was no mar
mony at the executive mansion. on
Peachtree street, where Mrs. Terrell.
wife of the retiring governor, and Mrs.
Smith, wife of the new executive, came
in contact.
Mrs Smith had planned a reception
Immediately after the inauguration to
friends of Hoke Smith, who had come
from all over Georgia to witness the in
auguration, and she wanted to get into
the mansion early in the morning to ar
range for the function. Mrs. Smith no.
titled Mrs. Terrell of her wishes. but
Mrs. Terrell sent word that the mansion
would be turned over to Mrs Smith at
IL o'clock, and not a minute earlier.
Barred from entering until noon, Mrs.
Smith issued orders to caterers, and at
IL o'clock long line of them proceeded
to the executive mansion, where they
stationed themselves on the sidewalk
waiting for noon. When the clock
struck u, Mrs. Terrell turned over the
keys, and the carterers filed in and ar
ranged refres shments for the guberna-
torial reception.
The feeling between Mrs. Terrell and
Mrs. Smith dates back to William J.
Bryan's last visit to Atlanta On that
occasion Mrs. Smith was chairman of
the ladies' committee, which entertain
ed Bryan, and it is claimed that this
committee ignored Mrs. Terrell. Up to
that time, Mrs. Terrell, as wife of the
governor, had always figured on COM
mittees to receive distinguished guests.

No More Special Delivery Stamps.

Washington, d. c., July by vir-
tue of a new postoffice regulation put
into effect today the special delivery
stamp, with its familiar but unnatural
picture of fieet-footed messenger boy
on the run, is relegated to the list of
obsolete institutions, useful in their
day, but now no longer needed.
From this date it will no longer be
necessary to buy special stamp to in
sure special delivery. Ten cents in
stamps of any denomination, in addi-
tion to the ordinary postage, is all that
will be necessary to insure the trans
mission of letters and packages for
special delivery. The change is made
for the convenience of the public.
Persons desiring to mail special-deliv=
cry letter oftentimes found 1t impossi-
BILE to buy the special-delivery stamps
at stores and other places where the or
dinary postage stamps were on sale.
and hence were obliged to go out of
their way to the postoffice or sub-sta-
tions.

ion was rendered in the United States

DISREGARDING
TWO-CENT RATE
Virginia Roads Refuse to Put on Tickets
Ordered by Commission.
SOME SELLING WITH REBATE RECEIPT
Purchasers to Hold Coupons and in Event
Appeal by Roads From Order Fails, and
Law is constitutional They'll Get Money

Norfolk, Va, July 1.-None of the
railroad ticket Offices in Norfolk was to-
day selling two-cent mileage passenger
tickets in compliance with the order of
the state corporation commission enforc-
ing the two-cent passenger rate on and
after July l. The Norfolk & Western,
Atlantic Coast Line, Southern and Ches-
apeake & Ohio railways began this
morning, however, selling tickets with
a receipt rebate thereon. The purchas-
ers of tickets will hold these rebate re-
ceipts and In the event the appeal made
by the railroads from the ruling of the
Virginia corporation commission fails
and the two-cent law is declared to be
constitutional, the holders will, upon
presentation, receive refunds for the
face value Of their receipts. The Sea-
board Air Line and New York, Philadel-
phia and Norfolk railroad had given no
instructions on the question and the
Norfolk ticket agents were selling at
the old rates today without the giving
of rebate receipts.
AT most OF the ticket offices reference
was made to the fact that Judge Pritch-
ard, who at Asheville Saturday, contin-
ued the temporary injunction against
the enforcement of the reduced rates
ordered by the North Carolina corpora
tion commission until the taking of evil
dence is completed and the case can be
determined upon its merits, is today, at
Asheville, hearing the Virginia case and
the railroads are awaiting the decision
of the court on the Virginia appeals.

FISCAL YEAR OF THE GOVERNMENT.
Closed Yesterday With a Su, plus of $87,
100000 In the Treasury.

Washington, June $50 far as work.
ing purposes are concerned, the fiscal
year of the government closed today
with surplus of substantially $87, 900, =
900, one of the largest net balances ever
shown. In the fiscal year 1902 there
was surplus of S91, ,2s7, 375, but that
was the largest since 1900.
While the official figures for the fiscal
year will not be announced until Monday
the figures available today are approx
mately accurate. They show for the
year just closed, the income from the
various sources of revenue was $685., =
BOG, 134, and expenditures $578, 376, 700,
as compared with receipts of 1894, 545, =
121 for the last fiscal year and expendi-
lures of $568, 7s4, 799, the surplus in that
year being $25, ,669, S22.
There has been a tremendous increase
in receipts in the year just closing,
while the expenditures have been only
about $40, 900, 900 in excess of the last
year. The largest increase in receipts
has been from customs, although inter-
nal revenue has shown big gain.
The receipts from the different
sources this year have been as follows:
Customs, 1888, ,230, 126.
Internal revenue, $27O, 300, 1888.
Miscellaneous. SCI, 766, ,619.
There has been no year in the history
of the country in which the receipts
from customs came within many mil
lions Of the present year. The receipts
last year held the record up to that time,
and this last years income from that
source is about $93, 900, 900 in excess of
last year.
Internal revenue receipts likewise
break all records, except during the
Spanish war, when special taxes were
being collected.

STEAM TURBINES.
VIII be Used in the Construction Of
Big Warshlps.

Washington, June 80. Secretary
Metcalf today announced his decision in
respect to three important matters. In
the first place he allotted contracts for
the construction of the two American
"Dreadnaught'' battleships, the inter-
esting point of his decision being the re-
lection of the navy departments plans
and the acceptance of the more progress
sive ideas of the private ship building
firms, involving the use OF steam tur-
bines. So as to afford fair opportunity
for comparison of the relative merits of
the British and American turbine sys-
TENS, the secretary awarded one con-
tract-that to the Newport News Ship
building Company-with the purpose of
trying the British device known as the
Parsons turbine. This is conditioned
upon certain notifications by the con-
tractors to meet the ideas of the depart
ment; otherwise they must build the
ship with the reciprocating engines un-
der the departments plans. In the first
case they will receive 81, 900, 900, and in
the latter case only So, ,987, 900.
The contract for the other battleship
was awarded to the Fore River Ship
building Company of Quincy, Mass, at
81, S77, 900. providing for the machinery
of the American Curtis turbine type.
The Newport News company undertakes
to build their ship in thirty-six months
and the Fore River company in thirty
four and half months.
The secretary was unable to award
the contracts for building the submarine
boats because of the necessity of sub
mitting to the attorney general a point
of law, but he decided to accept the re-
port of the board of construction and
the special submarine board in favor of
the Octopus" type of boat and the $S.-
900, 900 appropriation will be used to
build as many as possible of these boats,
averaging about $500, ,OO0a piece.
In awarding the contracts for supply
ing armor for the battieships, Secretary
Metcalf, with view to giving encour-
agement to all of the armor producing
concerns, while insuring the government
the lowest possible rates, divided the
contract among the bidders, as follows:
To the Bethlehem company 1902 tons;
to the Carnegie company 3,545 tons, and
to the Midvale company 2,230 tons, class
A armor at $3.50 per ton, and class B, C
and d at $400.

Many Sentenced to Death.

Mexico City, July 1.-Word reached
Mexico City tonight that President Ca
brera, of Guatemala, had caused the
arrest of one hundred and sixty citi-
zens of that republic on the charge of
alleged completely in the recent attempt
to assasinate him. All were thrown
into prison and later huddled into squads
OF twenty and tried in groups. Two
bands have been tried and many have
been sentenced to death. Among the
prisoners are some of the most wealthy
and prominent men of the republic.
The statement is made that these
men have long been on Cabrera's black

were trumped up for political reasons.
The report has created great excite
ment among Central American resi-
dents in this city and a mass meeting
will be discussed.

of trouble at the agency. He says that
