"We will have seventy-five mem
n bers of the legislature on joint bal

Enough populists are committed
however to insure the return of
- Senator IPritchard to the Senate. "
The above is an interview given
out by Cbairmrn Holton. The state
ment coming from the State Chair
man reveals the fact that a combina
tion has been formed in some of the
counties for the election of Senator
lYtU'Lard. ...
Topulists assert that Holton gives
the republicans a greater plurality
of imembers than " they , will jhaVe;
They say that while a few individual
populists may - vote -for Pritchard
the populists as an organization will
support the populist caucus nominee,
The report $pread that Otho Wil;
son would be a candidate ..for the
Senate... This morning the adjutant
was asked if such was the ease,,
- "There is nothing-at 'all In the
statement,; Mr, Wilson said.
4 "The report is simply hoax and
was given out for the purpose of

When asked whether the popu

adjutant fiatd most assuredly they
would. "sWe are not pledged to the
election" of anyi one. : The next

NEW LINE OF STEAMERS
Will b Eatablished from Savannah Direct
1 t toUverpoot, .. .
It will be 'remembered says the
Washington Star,' that several
months ago President Samuel Spefl
cer,f .tbe Southerit. Railway Com-
panyt and the great king of finance,1
Mr. J, Plerpont Morgan,? went to
Europe,. for, it isBtated, the purpose
of enjoying a much-needed - rest by
each, ;$Z;i-Z:XdPMfl
Evidences are continually crop
ping out that despite thei? efforts to
secure relaxatloji from the cares of
business, nature asserted Itself and
one result of the, trip is the proposed
starting of a line of steamships be
tween Savannah and Liverpool, the
Inauguration of the enterprise to
take, place on the 15th of the present
month. ts ; " . ali
It is stated by President Comer;
of the Central: of Georgia Railway
Company, wno has been intrusted
with the management In the United
States of the new line, that the latter
will work In harmony with all the
railroads reentering In Savannah,
and while this is doubtless true,1 It
does not make the fact any less ap
parent! that the enterprise Is anothir
great step in the transportation bu
siness of the world In which Messrs.
Spencer and Morgan are the direct
ing spirits. . ?
The European ' partners'
An the
ownersHip of the new. line are Mes
srs.', William Johnson , fc Co., who
are among the leading' jiteamehip
owners in he world, and who al
ready operate lines. of steamers be
tween Liverpool and Baltimore, Liv
erpool and -Norfolk and Liverpool
and various points von the' Atlantic
Seaboard of the United States. .
It is understood that a charter for
the corporation which it is necessary
to organiie in order to carry the pro
ject to success will be applied for' at
once and that ; toe concern when
organized, will be known asthe
Georgia Exportand ImportCompanyV
It will. H is understood, start with
a capital of $50,000, with the privi
lege of Increasing it to $1,000,000,
the intention- being that some time
in the future, when it las made suf
ficient progress, It. shall own Its
own ships as won aa cnarter ana
operate others. ? . " ",,'.
The establishment of this new line
of steamships is regarded In rail
way and shipping circles as one of
the , most -Important movements of
the kind that has taken place-in
many years, and It is likely to add
very largely to the revenues of the
Southern Railway Company, as it
ill enable them to .secure th carry
ing of a vast .quantity of cotton and
other bulky freight.
Another advantage expected to be
brought about by the establishment
of the line will be to the' shipper
himself, who will be able always to
find a vessel for hiS cargo, and be
sides having It transferred at a lower
rate of marine Insurance attendant
upon using a direct line of steamers.
Marine risks upon, ordinary- tramp
steamers are considerably higher
than on those which ply direcVand
arrangements have been mad 3 by
which insurance will be secured to
the shipper at the rates usually given
in direct line steamers.
A request to the office of the. gen
eral manager of the -new company
from a . Star reporter brought the
following reply: "I am tired," Mr,
Comer Js quoted as saying, "of haul
ing cotton ' through Savannah to
Port Royal and to Charleston, and of.
seeing cotton that rightfully belong:
to us go to Norfolk . This diversion
of the traffic has been going on for
long time, and I have been working
on some plan to put an end to it

depend upon the condition , of Mrs.
McKinley 's health,: and ItU certain
that at present she could not risk a
railroad journey though she is able
to situptoi eveniog;" fs f Kv f
I talked tonight with a gentleman
who has had an exceptional oppor
tunity for knowing Major McKinley 'a
views, and his statements, with in-
fctmation received through mends
afilr. Hanna, justify the statement
wvV-jti Majbr McKinley ; proposes to
bring into the Cabinet the best talent
he is capable of securing

- i'ln the first place," satcr my in
formant,' ''Major McKinley Is very
ambitious. - Ho proposes to give the
the country an administration that
wilmake a. feccrd in its history
He recognizes that , he han no easy
task before himj for he believes the
elements which have separated the
old parties in this contest will grow
in force, rather than diminish and
cit is his purpose to conciliate and
attract the forces which .have
stood by him in his' contest, rather
than repel or offend them.
Of course, the figure about which
the greatest interest centers, out-
side of the President-elect,' is that
of Chairman Hanna. It is . under
stood here that it is now Mr. Han-
Da's nesire to succeed John Sher
man in the United States Senate.
- It was Mr. HannSs desire to lay
down his political cares with the
nomination of Major McKinley in St.
Louis, The conditions which pre
sented themselves, however were
such as required his acceptance of
the national chairmanship, and he
made that sacrifice for Major McKin
ley. 'It is quite possible that Mr.
Hanna may at the last moment be re-
qtttrpd to make a further sacrifice
for the Incoming president and be
come1 secretary of the treasury.
Itts the understanding here among
the closest friends of the president
elect that while a tariff bill will be
early presented to the next Co n
gress, Major McKinley has under"
gone a decided change of opinion as
to the lines upon which the tariff
legislation of the future must be
laid.
He has not abated one iota in his
views as to the necessity or a pro
tective tariff, but he believes that
reciprocity is the corollary of pro
tection, and that the thirty-two na
tions which now impose a tariff
upon American imports, and whose
products now come into American
ports free ofjduty, should be made
to abate their own tax or be made
subject to cluty in the United States.
