WOULD PREVENT ELECTION. Charleston Lawyers Apply for a Re straining Order.-Say Act Is Unconstitutional. m.n and Gr1ace. lawyers from Char leston, appeared bef,)re Chief Justice Jones this evening' for a rule to show cause in the case of Thas. 1. Jellico. petitioner, vs. H. AV. Conner, Joiin H. Conlon and Win. D. Clarke. elee tion commissioners. The case involves an attack on the recent statute closing dispensaries and providing for an election on Au gust 17, charging unconstitutionality on two grounds: First, that it vio lates the article requiring the subject of the act to be expressed in the title; and, second, that it is special legisla, tion. The wish is that the supreme court assemble on or about August 11 and hear the case. If the court is un willing or unahle to assemble then a rule to s'how cause will be issued returnable before the chief justice and 'he will pass upon the case at his chambers, subject, of course, to right of appeal to the whole court. The effect of sustaining the con tention of the petitioner would be to prevent the elections and continue prohibition in force. SMITH ON BAGGING. South Carolifa Senator Shows Re publican Partiality.-Declares Party Unworthy. Washington, Aug. 3.-Senator E. D. Smith returned to Washington this morning and was in his seat in the senate to-day. Senator Smith has been absent from Washington during the period in which the tariff bill has been in conference, but will be on hand to vote on the measure when it comes up for final consideration and may have somet'hing to say in reference to mat ters afer-ting the interests of the farmers. In the meantime, however, he is co-operating with Senator Culberson. the minority leader, in a final effort to have cotton bagging, gunny cloth and similar fabrics suitable for cov ering cotton admitted to the free list. He was very emphatic to-day when he denounced the policy of the Re publicanis in placing this article on the <dutiable 'list, when the Western farmers are given free binding twine. Senator Smith declared that *a great party guilty of such sectional par S.Da d etwt HE Q .- R H.

Fire on Peach Basket Causes General Disorganization of Things in Atlanta Depot. Atlanta. August 3.-A fire upon the roof garden of a. pretty girl's hat at the union station this afternoon call ed out two fire companies, a host eart, a score of willing amateur firemen, delayed a fast train and destroyed about $30 worth of finery upon the peach basket aforesaid. The young woman en route to New .York, rushed into the station for a bite to eat. In paying her cheek she swung the confection too elose to a cigar lighter. In an instant t'he or ehard which adorned it was a mass of very smelly flames. A dark skin ned waiter turned in a fire alarm and every available male guest tried to resene the affair, thereby convincing the wearer. who knew naught of the conflagration that she had blundered into an insane asylum. The train was held a few minutes 'until the victim recovered from an at tack of near 'hysterics, when she gra ciously permitted it to proceed, giv ing vent to a few personal opinions of cigar lighters in general and this one in particular.
