The Georgia Farmers’ Alliance has cut the UNSIGNED CHARGES. Investigation of the Supervising In- spector of Steam Vessels Collapses. The investigation of the office of the super- vising inspector of steam vessels appears to have come toan abrupt end. The reference of the resolution introduced by Mr. Flower back to the committee on rules is probably the last of it. Last Monday when Gen. Dumont, the super- vising inspector general, was before the com- mittee on merchant marine and fisheries, which had been given charge of the investiga- tion, it was discovered that the charges were not signed. Mr. Flower was sent for and asked by the committee if he wanted to take the re- sponsibility for the charges, and he replied that he did not; that he knew nothing about them except that a Mr. Husted came to him with a letter of recommendation and introdue- tion from George L. Norton, the editor of the Marine Journal, and claimed to represent the Grand Harbor of the Brotherhood of Pilots, 83,000 licensed pilots, who complained of per- secution by Gen, Dumont. Gen, Dumont disputed the authority of either Mr. Husted or Mr. Norton and said that he would have some evidence to submit on the subject. Subsequently Gen. Dumont wrote to Capt. Tuthell, grand captain of the grand har- bor, which Mr. Husted claimed to reprosent, for information on the subject. CAPT. TUTHELL'S REPLY. Areply was received from Capt. Tathell, in which he said Mr. Husted was not known to him and did not represent the grand harbor at all. He said furthor that there were no com- plaints from the grand harbor, but there was some grumbling among probably half a dozen disgruntled men in Harbor No. 1. Yesterday Gen. Dumont wrote an official let- ter to Mr. Flower, quoting from the letter of Capt. Tuthell, and stating that Mr. Norton was a persistent aud bitter enemy of his (Dumont’s) because he had refused to pass some fraudu- lent accounts which Mr. Norton had insisted should be epee first as a matter of friendship and secondly because Norton had influence as the editor of the Marine Journal and it would injure Dumont if he u* not pass them.

The court house this morning put on a busi- ness look again, The Criminal Court room was graced with the presence of a few pris+ oners brought up for arraignment.

MeGrath July 25, plead guilty and asked the mercy of the court, Sentence deferred, Mark Smith, colored, charged with rape, plead not guilty. William Teemore and Harry Clifton, two white men, were charged with housebreaking and larceny, and were sentenced each to the penitentiary for two and a halt years. After they had been sent to the cells Tee- more concluded to change his plea, and being brought up he entered a similar plea for Clifton. 1 They asked the court to be merciful. Clifton said that He took the blame; that Teemore did not enter the houso, and promised, whether mercy was shown or not, he would live an honest life and would abstain from liquor, which brought him to it, — ALEXANDRIA.

The “Soapine” case here, like that in Washington, has also been earried up on appeal to Richmond.

A Question on Which the Methodists Will Work. At the last general conference of the Meth- odist church it was decided to leave the ques- tion of admitting women as lay delegates to the conferences to a vote of the members of thechurch. At the Metropolitan Church this vote is to be takem Tuesday, October 28. Last night a debate was held in the lecture room of the church, which was largely attended and listened to with great interest, Mr, Thomas H. McKee, the first speaker, took the ground that the admission of women was right and should be brought about. Mr. Frod U. Tasker took the opposite ground, Indge W. B. Sneil spoke in the affirmative, arguing from the standpoint of the Scriptures, and he was followed in turn by Mr. A. B. Duvall, who took the negative side of the question. Even though the admission of women might be right he held that it would be decidedly inexpedient. He was the last regular speaker of the even- ing, but several members of the church made | brief and informal remarks on the subject, beens a DISTRICT GOVERNMENT, OMARGES AGAINST THE SEALER OF WEIGHTS AND MEASURES.
