SCHOONER IS SEARCHED
Munitions of War for Mexico Found
on the Dantzler.

Mobile, Ala.-The schooner L. M.
Dantzler was boarded and searched
here by United States revenue off.
GERS, and, although government off.
Gals refuse to make any statement,
it is said upon good authority that mu-
nitions of war destined for Mexico
We're found on board.
The DantZler was searched some
time ago by the revenue cutter Vino
ma at Pascagoula, but nothing suspi.
cious was found. Since the vessel
has been at Mobile three days, Off
Gals have suspected her of loading at
night arms and ammunition for the
Mexican rebels at Vera Cruz, under
Felix Diaz, and when the search was
made she was apparently about half
loaded.
Captain Fremont, a commander
well known in Southern ports, was
said to have been in charge of the
Dantzler, but government officials had
been unable to reach him.

Columbus, Ohio.-According to the
report of the state examiner made
public, officials of Darke county are
said to have paid out illegally $751;

report states that the public treasury
was BOLDLY looted" The alleged cor
rupt county officials used the base.

and carousing, according to the report
which stated that the "swag" was usu.

of the accused is now in the peniten-

indicted.

THROUGHOUT THE STATE.

Some newspaper talk is again heard
on the proposition to divide the state
and have two capitals. The Tampa
Times, treating the matter at first
seriously, and then making a jest of
1t. decries the fault-finders who object
to Tampa and Jacksonville as the new
capitals Of North and South Florida.
Somebody has said that these cities
are on the rim of the state" and are
therefore ineligible, and The Times
shows that rim" capitals are by no
means rare in the United States and
1t might have added that the same
rim" capitals are to a considerable
extent easier of approach and more
middle state capitals But what's the
use of talking about the rim? 1t Is
absolutely certain that Florida will
never be divided until at least one
hundred miles of the Atlantic have
been filled in and Jacksonville will
then be an inland city.
The Florida railroad commissioners
have entered their orders against the
Tampa Northern railroad and the
Seaboard Air Line directing that these
Two lines of railroad be considered
as constituting but one and the same
railroad, and that rates on shipments
passing from points on one to points
on the other be computed as upon
parts of one and the same railroad,
according to the provisions of Com
missoners Rule of the Rules Govern
ing the Transportation Of Freight. And
further that the freight rates hereto
fore prescribed and now being oper-
ated by the Seaboard Air Line shall
also apply to the Tampa Northern
railroad
In Fort Lauderdale work has begun
on improving Andrews avenue from
Oliver to the city limits. Work is
going ahead satisfactorily and reports
indicate that it will shorten the dis
tances between Palm Beach and Mi
ami considerably, besides doing away
with some short turns that have here
tofore been dangerous. The most in
teresting feature of the report, how
ever, is that telling of the planting
of Australian pines and hibiscus along
this thoroughfare, which will certain
ly make it pleasant and attractive.
Orlando is witnessing lively can
vass for the board of trade, to get
large membership, and it is stated
that four hundred is the mark to
which the board expects to attain.
Committees are working and the de-
sired membership is likely to be Sc
cured. A representative board of
trade can do a great deal for a city.
Pinellas county commissioners have
ordered an election to be held in the |
