Special Message Sent in BY
Governor GiIchrist.

Tallahassee, Fla, May ia spe-
cial message from Gov. Gilchrist ON
technicalities, caused a sensational
floor fight in the senate this morn,
ing.
A motion to spread it on the jour
nal was opposed by Mr.. Flournoy
who said it should not be termed a
message and was an insult on the
senate. He said it would not concern
him so much If the language of the
message came from an ordinary ne
gro bootblack, nor did he care that
it came from A. w. Gilchrist, bui
when it came from the chief execu
tive of his great state, he was much
concerned.
Flournoy then moved that the mes
sage be not spread on the journal
and that the secretary of the senate
be instructed tc put match to it ant
burn it. TIE message was not spread
but the latter clause of the motion
by Flournoy, who repeated that 20

LARGE NUMBER or THEM, SOME
IN THIS CITY, HAVE NOT
MADE RETURNS.
Internal Revenue Collector Is Prepar-
ing the List-About 1,5oo Corpora
< tons 0isobAy Law and Are Subject
to Prosecution.

Brunswick corporations witch have
not made returns to the internal rev.
enue collector in Atlanta, and there
are quite number of them are run
ming the risk of being hauled up be-
fore the United States court for vio-
lating the federal law. There are
1000 corporations in the state which
have not made their returns. The fol-
lowing article on the subject, from
yesterdays Atlanta Journal, will be
of interest:
Between 1000 and 1900 corpora
tions in Georgia have failed to make
returns to the government, as they
are required to do by the corporation
tax law; and Henry S. Jackson inter-
nal revenue collector, said Tuesday
morning tTaat ne is having a list of
them made out and will turn this list
over to the United States district at
tIr1ey in order that he may 5eSiu
civil proceedings against the delin-
quents.
The corporation tax law provides
that corporaticns which refuse to
make returns to the government or
neglect to do so shall be fined from
$1,000 to $4,000.
This return is a statement of cor
poration's business and is the means
by which the government determines
TIE amount of tax each corporation
shall pay.
Tie corporation law requires that
these returns shall be made not later
than March 1. Last year a number of
corporations held hack to learn the
decision of the supreme court as to
the validity cf this law The supreme
court held that the law is valid. This
year there is no such reason for fail
ure to make returns, and the govern
ment intends to proceed more quick
ly and more firmly against the corpo-
rations failing to comply with the ccr-
poration tax law.
Mr.. Jackson said Tuesday morning
that a list of the delinquents will
soon be in the hands of the district
attorney, and That only by making
their returns Immediately can these
corporations escape civil prosecution
and fines of from $1,000 to $4,000.

STEAMER HURON, SAILING FROM
NEW YORK YESTERDAY, WILL
STOP HERE.
New Plan Gives Brunswick Improved
Service to New York and Water
Route to Jacksonville and Charles.
ton---other Advantages

With the sailing of the large steam
ship Huron yesterday from New York
the service of tie Clyde line is so
extended as to net only give Bruins
wick the very best service to and
from New York, but also to afford the
people of this city water route to
and from both Charleston and Jack
sonville. In other words the Clyde
line has included Brunswick in the
places to be touched by its largest
and handsemest ships, and the first
one to call here will be the Huron,
which sailed from New York yester-
day.
I BY this new arrangement sailing
dates from New York to the south
have also been changed. In the past
ships have sailed from New York for
this port on Mondays and Thursdays,
but under tie new order of things
they will sail on Wednesdays and
Saturdays. The ships will stop first
at Charleston, then call at this port
and continue to Jacksonville. On the
return trip the same stops will be
made, at this port and Charleston.
The ships to be operated in the new
service are the Huron, Algonquin, Co
manche and Iroquois
Not only will this new service give
Brunswick the very best schedule
possible to New York, but it opens up
a water route to both Jacksonville
and Charleston, and 1t also means
that hereafter four times each week
two or three hundred passengers
bound to Florida from New York
and vice versa will spend several
hours in this city. They will all be
given time to look over TIE city and
spend some. time here, as 1t is an
nounced that each of the ships. bound
both north and south, will spend eight
or ten hours in port The company
announces that it will thoroughly ad-
yertise the stop-over at Brunswick.
which will be one of the features of
the trip from New York to Florida.
Since re-entering this port several
months ago the business of the Clyde
line has rapidly increased, which re-
suited in this new service, which will
become effective today. 1t means,
mofe t'an anything else, that people
of the Interior can now come to
Brunswick to take their sea trip to
New York and; rest assured that they
will have passage on large. and COM
Portable ships. The Huron, which sail
ed from New York yesterday, will ar
rive in port Saturday. =

DEMOCRATIC CONFERENCE.

PUEBLO, April 18.-Pueblo Democ-
racy has two propositions up for con-
sideration in its county convention to-
day. One by the Adams people is
commenting the state senator's and
representatives In the legislature for
standing by Alva Adams for the Unit
ed States senate and urging con-
tipuance of this stand. The other
proposition emanates from that CO.
terie of Democrats here which are
known as the followers of John West,
who has just been sworn in as mayor
of this city. The West contingent is
not opposed to Alva Adams, rather it
favors him for the senatorial toga.
However, the West cabal wants sup
plement Adams resolutions. 1t wants
to go further, to-wit: After indorsing
Adams as long as he remains in the
race-allowing a reasonable time
and if he cannot be elected, it intends
to instruct the Pueblo legislative dele
cation to settle the platform legis-
lation and senatorial contest in a
Democratic caucus, and the delegation
to abide by the choice of such caucus
Naturally the Adams people do not
take kindly to the extension of the
resolution to include the caucus. They
say the convention was called at the
request of the Pueblo delegation in
assembly merely to instruct" sale
delegation-seven in all--how to vote
on the senatorial question.
A program was agreed upon by the
Adams people last night in conference
with some dozen or more Democratici
