Representative Kitchin of North Car

AMENDMENTS FATE
IS YET UNSETTLED
SEVERAL COUNTIES ARE YET TO
BE HEARD FROM WITH RE-
TURNS OF ELECTION.
NEW COUNTIES SAIL THROUGH
But Proposal to Make Terms of the
County Officers Four Years Was
Not So Popular. Some State Can
didates Scratched Considerably.

ATLANTA-Whil the cOmpila-
ton of returns from the recent state
election proceeds slowly, due to miss
ing counties and more or less con-
fusion in making the returns to prop
er officers, the work of consolidation
is proceeding slowly.
The constitutional amendment ex-
tending the terms of county officers
from two to four years pulled
through by narrow margin. The
vote for the amendment was 25,915
and against 23,755. Four small
counties are still missing from the
returns, but their vote cannot affect
the issue other than perhaps cut
down the majority little closer.
Apparently there was no opposi-
ton of moment anywhere to the new
counties, but, odd to say, many coun-
ties voted against two wholly local
matters-the establishment of mu-
nicipal court in Savannah and raisin
the pay of the Judge of the Macon
circuit Why there should be any
objection to raising the salary of
the Macon judge is difficult to under
stand, since Bibb pays the salary.

800 HORSES LOST
IN FIRE ON A ship
THE ANIMALS WE'RE BOUND FOR
FRANCE, AND INTENDED FOR
ARMIES OFVTHE ALLIES.
CARCASSES DUMPED INTO SEA

Vessel Is Believed to Have Been Set
On Fire by German Spies. Threats
Said to Have Been Made at Balti-
more Against the Ship.
NORFOLK, Va.-Practicall all of
the 500 horses on board the British
steamship Rembrandt were burned or
smothered to death when the ship
caught fire off the Virginia capes.
The Rembrandt was bound from Bal
timore to Saint Naziere, France, and
the animals are understood to have
been intended for the armies of the
allies.
1t was reported that Captain Edlin
of the Rembrandt had notified Off
cials of the Lamport and Holt line,
owners of the ship, that he had rea-
son to believe that the vessel was set
on fire by German spies who were
members of the crew The captain
is said to have claimed that threats
against the ship were made before it
steamed from Baltimore.
Tonight the Rembrandt was steam
ing backward and forward in a circle
ten miles off Cape Henry while the
crew was busy disposing of the car
cases in the sea. Less than a dozen
of the horses are said to be alive.
When the fire was discovered the
ship was 200 miles off the capes. The
smoke was so dense that the crew
could not reach the flames. and the
animals were left to their fate The
ships hold was flooded and the
matches closed; these efforts finally
resulted in the fire having been
brought under control.

The United States Supreme Court
has decided that the Maryland oys-
ter tax law passed In 1910 was nm
constitutional. Justice Lamar in an
nouncing the courts opinion said that
the operation of the tax under pre-
yions law showed that only oae-third
OF the amount collected was used for
inspection service by the state. The
law was attacked on the ground that
the tar was used to defray all ex.
penses of the state fishing force. and
therefore was in conflict with the
constitutional provision, limiting the
levying of duties on imports to an a
mount Sufficient to meet the expenses
Of inspection.
