Representative Catchings Enthusiastic Over the Maryland Senator, “When the time comes for Mississippi to send delegates to thedemocratic national convention the name of Arthur P. Gorman will be fre- quently heard.” Representative Catchings said that, and he said it with an earnestness not to be mistaken. “A better man than Gorman,” continued the Mississippian, “would be hard to find. His personal record is stainless, his ability is unquestioned, and he bas in him all that gocs to ‘make an ideal President. There has been no outburst of popularsentiment in his behalf, bat the solid thinking men arc quietly euthusiastic over the chances of his candidacy. The mud- die in New York absolutely prevents our look- ing in that direction fora leader. We will im whom we seek in Maryland.” aE LGA °C Cena ee THE ALLIANCE IN GEORGIA. Politics as They Appear Through the Eyes of Ex-Representative Clements. “The alliance is busy in Georgia,” said ex- Representative Clements to a Stan reporter this afternoon. “A great many meetings are being held and the leaders are more active than ever before. Some of these strongly advocate third party tickets, both state and national, but the chances are that such an extreme will not be reached becaue the masses are opposed toit. Nearly all the alliance people in our state are democrats, and while they have joined the alli- ance because they had what they felt were real grievances, yet at heart they are democrats. ‘They are willing, in the great majority of cases, to abide by the decision of the democratic arty.

Politically this may seem somewhat joxical, but it is true. Georgia will be for the nominee.” REWARDING THE CAPTORS, ‘The Men Who Caught Rube Burrows and Rube Smith Get Each a Thousand Dollars. Warrants were issued today from the Post Office Department for the payment of $1,000 to Col. J. D. Carter of Myrtlewood, Als., a re- ward for the capture of the celebrated train robber and highwayman, Rube Burrows. Under the terms of the reward it was to be paid for the trial and conviction of Burrows before a United States court. But it happened that after Col. Carter had suc- ceeded in capturing the notorious outlaw the Intter succeeded in making his escape. It happened that Carter came in contact with Burrows when he was free and both men opened fire. Burrows was instantly killed by a bullet through his heart and Car- ter was wounded in the —_ shoul- der. ‘The probability is that — the arm will be amputated. In consideration of the undoubted guilt of Burrows and the plack of Col. Carter and his being maimed the Post- master General decided to make an exception in his case and give him the reward, although Burrows had not been tried aud convicted by a United States court. A check for $1,000 wns also sent to Thomas P. Jackson of Aberdeen, Miss. who captured Rube Smith, a member of Burrows’ gang, who is now serving a life sentence. The award for the capture of Joe Jackson, another accomplice who was killed while tempting to escape from jail, will be divided among about fourteen persons. SAO eae nel Reducing Our Fleet in Chili. The cruiser San Francisco, now in Chili, has been ordered north and will probably sail Mon- day for Mare Island, Cal, where she will be j docked, cleaned and painted, as@er unpro- | tected and unskienthed bottom has gotten very foul in the southern waters. Admiral Brown will come north on her and continue in commund of the vessela on the Pa- cifle station. Capt. Sebley will remain for a time in Chilian waters with the Baltimore, and afiaira bave so quieted down in Chili as to justify the belief that one United States ship will serve to look after’ American interests there. No decisiou: has yet been reached re- specting the future station of the San Fran- cisco, but it is probable that she will bo beld at Mare in readiness to meet any emer- gency that may arise. ‘The Bupreme Council of Chosen Friends. A number of amendments to the laws of the order were adopted at today’s session of the Supreme Council of Chosen Friends. Among the changes was one providing for the a] of each The Commissioners talked garbage for over an hour this morning at the early board meet- ing and compiled specifications for the con- tract, which is ebortly to be advertised, for the Femoval of garbage and dead animals the re- mainder of the fiscal year. Health Officer Hammett was present and pre- sented the following compilation of reports upon the garbage question which be bad col- lected from the several cities: BosTox. _The report from Boston sayw'that the popula- tion is 460,000, about 6,000 of which are hotel orgs and 100,000 have their dinners city. The annual appropriation for the removal of garbage Ie. ss4000 ed from 200 to 280 tons are removed daily. Garbage is removed from hotels, restaurants, markets and large boarding houses daily and from dwelling houses three times a week in the =e months and twice a week in the winter. in reply 1 question as to the dixposition of garbage the report ways that it is delivered ata depot and sold to farmers from adjoining towns. The garbage is kept in wooden and e ‘ized iron tubs. The method of collect- ing garbage, the report says, is, in case the re- ceptacie is large, to bring it out and empty and then return, and if smail to collect it in buckets. In the summer months from «ixty- five to eighty wagons are employed, each pro- vided with two men. The city owns the wagons and the collectors are paid €2 per day. The report from Pittsburg is very incom- plete. It simply states that the population is 247,000 and the garbage is removes tra privels company and disposed of by means ot a gar- bage furnace. PRILADELPHTA. Philadelphia sends in a first-class report. ‘The garbage collection, ashes and street clean- ing are all under one contract. The price for 1891 is $551,998. The quantity removed during 1890 was 64,983 tons. Garbage is Temoved daily for six months and three times each week for the remaining #ix months and is disposed of by feeding to hogs in the rural sections. There is no law governing the Kind of veswel to be used by residents for the reception of garbage and it is removed water-tight box wagons and carts, upwards of ‘200 being employed daily during the summer months. All work is done by contract relet each year. curcago. Chicago appropriates annually $335,000 to be applied to the removal of garbage and the maintenance of the first ward plant. There is removed daily 1,300 tons of garbage le It ts from public streets and carried out of the city by rail and by team, a portion of it being used to fill clay heles in the outlying wards. Garbe, use is kept in covered receptacles. ‘ihirty-three out of the thirty-four wards in the city are cleaned by contract, the contractors giving bond for tri-weekly ‘service and to employ such number of teams as will In the business part of the city (first ward) the work is performed by the city, who own their own teams and wagons. ‘Ihe report states that several crematorics have been tested with a view of establishing a system that would dis- pove of the garbage satisfactorily, but as yetno detinite results have been arrived at. NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans sends in a first-class report, which shows conclusively that it experiences little trouble with the question. In the first place the city does the work under an an- nual appropriation of $40,000, removing daily 30,000 tons of garbage. ‘Ihe disposal of the garbage is identical with ours. It is dumped into ‘bage bouts from carts and thence into the river below the city. One hundred wagons are employed to do the work for a population of 250,000 people. BUFFALO. The city also takes care of the removal of garbage in Buffalo, Nr¥., subject to an annual appropriation of $20,000. The garbage is re- moved daily in business portions of the city, three times a weck in the central section and once a week in the outlying districts, twenty carts being used to perform the service, remov- ing about fifty tons of garbage daily. It is taken care of by the Merz eystem. has & population of 256,000. st. LOUIS. ‘This is the system in vogue in St. Louis: The removal of garbage is done by contract, £25,000 Per year being paid for the service. It is re- moved in fifty water-tight carts three times per week in summer and twice a week during the winter. The disposal of the garbage is novel, to say the least. After each driver ' has made round of his district he drives at once to the banks of the Mississippi river and dumps it in. This method of dixposal will be changed, how- ever, within the next eight or ten months, as the city a couple of months ago awarded the e removal of garbage and dead | animals to the St. Louis Reduction Company, | which will use the Merz process and reduce it to fertilizer. mplish the work. ———_ QWANTED THE MILK INSPECTED. The Samples Which a Woman Took to the ‘Commissioners’ Office Today. The pretty little milk maid of whom poets have written would certainly have blushed could she have been present in the board room of the Commissioners’ office this morning when a lady entered with a basket on her arm containing two glass jars, which, she said, con- tained milk. It would have been manifestly unjust to have disputed the lady, yet the contents of the jars looked more like over-due garbage than the product of a cow. The lady explained, however, that the milk was left at her house yesterday by her dairy- | man and toall appearances was nice fresh milk, but when she looked atit this morning she found that something was wrong. It was of a dirty brown color, full of tiny blood corpuscles and "Be oteted that the eatin noe tment could bee it coul not analyze it and she had beeu referred to the District chemist.
