The Published by The TRIBUNE PUBLISHING COMPANY. DEWEY IS OUT FOR PRESIDENT Admiral Says That He Will Run as an Independent. RESCINDS HIS FORMER DECISION Through the New York World He Makes Announcement of His Candidacy. A special from Washington says that Admiral Dewey authorizes the New York World to announce to the American people that after mature reflection, and in response to the earnest entreaties from all parts of the country, his former decision not under any circumstances to run for the presidency is rescinded. A World correspondent saw the admiral at his home in Washington, Tuesday evening. Admiral Dewey said: "I realize that the time has arrived when I must definitely define my position. "When I arrived in this country last September I said then that nothing would induce me to be a candidate for the presidency. "Since then, however, I have had the leisure and inclination to study the matter, and have reached a different conclusion, inasmuch as so many assurances have come to me from my countrymen that I would be acceptable as a candidate for this great office. If the American people want me for this high office I shall be only too willing to serve them. "It is the highest honor in the gift of this nation; what citizen would refuse it? "Since studying this subject, I am convinced that the office of president is not such a very difficult one to fill, his duties being mainly to execute the laws of congress. "Should I be chosen for this exalted position, I would execute the laws of congress as faithfully as I have always executed the orders of my superiors." Admiral Dewey did not state which party's nomination he would accept. The reporter asked: "On what platform will you stand?" and the admiral replied: "I think I have said enough at this time, and possibly too much." RIOTOUS PORTO RICANS. Large Job Assembles and Attacks Laborers--Troops Had to Be Called Out. A special from San Juan de Porto Rico says: A crowd of about 500 persons gathered Monday at a pier under construction by the E. B. Jenks Co. of New York, intimidated the native carpenters and forced thirty-five of them to quit work. The present rate of wages is $1.50 per ten-hour day. The leaders of the movement demanded and eight-hour labor day. At noon Thursday a mob of over 10,000 people assembled and attacked the St. Thomas laborers. There were 150 policemen on duty, but they made no attempt to disperse, the crowd, and a company of infantry was called out to preserve order. The crowd was not violent beyond beating a few men. The agitators were headed by Santiago Iglesias, late delegate to the labor convention at New York. The leaders from St. Thomas refused to return to work, being afraid of attack after hours. The workmen who were satisfied and willing to work were forced out by the so-called union leaders, with the result that the natives will not be engaged. The company has cabled to the United States for twenty-five carpenters. They will arrive on the next steamer. The pier is now protected by soldiers. Licensed Physicians of Atlanta, Ga., at War With Other Practitioners. The jury in the case of Scott Bibb versus mayor and city council of Alton, Illinois, known as the colored school case, brought in a verdict Saturday for the city. The case is a celebrated one and involves the question of separate schools for white and colored children. War has been declared by the licensed physicians of Atlanta, Ga., on all medical practitioners in the city who do not hold regular diplomas. As a result of the crusade which has been instituted four indictments were found by the Fulton county grand jury. The defendants are Professor W. R. Price, Dr. John Swanson, Dr. W. C. Van Valen and Dr. G. K. Woodward. Bibb, who represented the colored people, charged that the colored school children were excluded from the public schools. This is the third time the case has been tried in the circuit court. An appeal will be take to the superior court. Each of the accused men is charged with a misdemeanor, and the bonds have been placed at $500. V 11. XV DOCTORS ARE INDICTED. QUEEN IN IRELAND. Her Royal Majesty Is Well Received By Emerald Isle Subjects. A London special says: Queen Victoria left Windsor Monday evening on route for Ireland. Her majesty was accompanied by Princess Christina and Prince Henry, of Battenburg, and attended by the countess of Antrim, Hon. Harriet Phipps, Sir Arthur Biggs, Private Secretary to the Queen Sir Fleetwood Edwards, keeper of her majesty's privy purse, and Captain Ponsonby. The passage of the channel was smooth and the queen suffered no discomfort, although she expressed regret that the premature departure from Holyhead, owing to the threatening weather conditions, should cause her Irish subjects disappointment. It had been officially announced that she would reach Kingstown, seven miles from Dublin, at 5:30 p. m. Tuesday instead of 2 p. m., but at the latter hour the Victoria and Albert loomed up through the haze and rain and was greeted with the thunder of 21 guns from each ship of the British channel squadron. Thousands had poured into Kingstown regardless of the pelting rain, which lackily ceased about 5 o'clock and they braved the cold winds and murdered mud until midnight. The celebrations were confined to an illumination of the war vessels and to a few fireworks here and there. A shining shamrock stood out against the blackness of Dublin bay, and from the jackies clustered on the decks of the squadron came the strains of "God Save the Queen," which were taken up with a will by the patient crowd on shore, and "When Soldiers of Queen" floated across the quiet water, the spectators on Kingstown pier joined in with equal fervor. Although all political conditions are represented in Kingstown, there was no attempt at a counter-demonstra- tion. In fact, the evening's fireworks, singing and cheering were not marred by any hostile note. STORY IS NOT BELIEVED. Report Current That American Officer Let a Boer Attack. War department officials do not believe the story that comes from South Africa to the effect that Captain Carl Reichman, Seventeenth infantry, was one of the leaders of the Boers at the last fight between the Boers and the English at the Bloemfontein waterworks. Reichman's brother officers, men who know him well, say that it is very probable that Reichman occupied some conspicuous point of vantage from which to view the fighting, and his discovery in uniform by the British was the basis for the assumption that he was one of the Boer leaders. Reichman, was selected by General Miles personally to accompany the Boer forces during the war as an observer for the United States army. His colleagues in Washington declare that the officer has too much common sense to be led into a violation of his orders in the manner described. It is understood the English war office has no information as to who commanded the Boers in the affair leading to the capture of the British guns, but it places no credence whatever in the report that a United States attache or any one connected with the United States government took part in it. PETTUS BADLY SCARED. Alabama Senator Don't Like to He Called a "Humorist." Senator Pettus, according to a Washington dispatch, has awakened to find himself famous as a humorist, and he is badly scared. He doesn't want to be thought a humorist. "I'm no humorist," he said to a correspondent. "I'm nothing of the kind. I'm serious-minded. Why, say, I don't suppose I'll ever be able to live that speech down. And I'm not eighty years old, either, as some of those newspapers say. I'm only seventy-nine, and I've got a good long time to live." To Make Barrel Hoops. A company was formed at Chattanooga, Tuesday, with $30,000 capital to build and operate a barrel hoop and building lath plant. It will make 60,000 barrel hoops daily. Ample means is behind the enterprise when needed to make it a success. LOSE FOR THIRD TIME. School Case at Alton, III. Goes Against the Nervous Once More. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. APRIL 7. 1900. SENATE PASSES BILL Porto Rican Tariff Measure Goes Through Upper House. Republican Victory Was Anticipated and There Were No Surprises. The Porto Rican tariff bill was passed through the senate Tuesday as was anticipated. The vote was 40 to 31. There were sixteen absentees, all of them paired. Of the Republicans, all voted for the bill except Davis of Minnesota, Proctor of Vermont, Wellington of Maryland, Mason of Illinois, Nelson of Minnesota, and Simon of Oregon. Senator Hoar was paired against the bill. Mr. McEnergy, of Louisiana, was the only Democrat paired for the bill. The vote was approximately what had been prophesied for it. With the eight paired votes, the total would have been the 48 which was Senator Foraker's estimate. There was much excitement at the capitol during the entire day. The building was crowded with visitors from early morning, and during the speeches of different senators the galleries were crowded to their limit, and hundreds who came for a sight of the scene were sent away disappointed. It was an interesting and memorable scene. The fact that the ultimate result was certain seemed to make no difference with the Washington crowds, which were on hand in as great force as if the vote of a single senator would decide the result. The debate was under the fifteen-minute rule and the speeches, were, therefore, short, but they were to the point. When the hour of 4 o'clock was reached the chairman announced that the votes upon the pending amendments and upon the bill should be taken. At the suggestion of Mr. Foraker, the committee amendments which had been passed over were reverted to and adopted without discussion. Mr. Davis of Minnesota then offered his amendment providing that no duties of imports or exports shall, after the passage of this act, be levied or collected on any articles imported from the United States into Porto Rico or from Porto Rico into the United States. Mr. Davis demanded the yeas and nays. The amendment was lost—30 to 40. Without division two other amendments offered by Mr. Davis were defeated. Then Mr. Nelson, Republican, of Minnesota, offered his free trade amendment. The ayes and noes were ordered and this amendment, too, was lost. 29 to 41. After an amendment offered by Mr. Spooner, Republicau, of Wisconsin, making a slight change in the measure had been accepted by Mr. Foraker and agreed to, two amendments offered by Mr. Bacon, Democrat, of Georgia, one being a substitute for the entire bill, were defeated without division. Following is the detailed vote upon the measure: Yeas—Allison, Baker, Bard, Carter, Chandler, Clark of Wyoming, Cullom, Debo, Depe, Fairbanks, Foraker, Foster, Frye, Gallinger, Gear, Hanna, Hansbrough, Hawley, Jones of Nevada, Keane, Kyle, Lodge, McBride, McComas, McMillan, Penrose, Perkins, Platt of Connecticut, Platt of New York, Pritchard, Quarles, Ross, Scott, Sewell, Shoup, Spooner, Stewart, Thurston, Wetmore, Wolcott—40. Noes—Allen, Bacon, Bates, Berry, Clark of Montana, Clay, Cockrel, Culberson, Daniels, Davis, (Rep.) Harris, Heitfeld, Jones of Arkansas, Kenney, Lindsay, McLaurin, Martin, Mason (Rep.), Money, Morgan, Nelson (Rep.), Petus, Proctor (Rep.), Simon (Rep.), Sullivan, Tellisferro, Teller, Tillman, Turley, Vest, Wellington, (Rep.)—31. The only change in the pairs on the final vote related to Mr. Beveridge, of Indiana. Mr. Clark, of Montana, announced that he understood, if present, Mr. Beveridge would vote for the bill. He therefore transferred his pair to Mr. Rawlins, Democrat, of Utah. This permitted both Mr. Clark and Mr. Hauna (Mr. Rawlin's pair) to vote. BLIND TIGER LIQUORS Found By Treasury Agentz In Charleston's Custom House. Treasury agents in their search of the custom house at Charleston, S. C., found blind tiger liquors by the wholesale. Charges were made that the "blind tigers" had government protection by allowing their liquors to be kept under bond. Ex-Senator Gibson Dead. Ex-Senator W. H. Gibson, of Maryland, died Saturday morning from heart disease at the residence of his brother, Licutenant Gibson, of the navy, in Washington, where he had resided since his retirement from the senate. GOVERNOR IS UPHELD Chief Executive of Idaho Has Many Supporters. PETITION IS PRESENTED TO ROOT. The Signers Declare Situation at Coeur d'Alene Was Critical and Troops Were a Necessity. A Washington dispatch says: Governor Steunenberg, of Idaho, called at the war department Saturday and presented in person to Secretary Root the petition to which he referred while under-examination before the house committee on military affairs in favor of the retention of the Federal troops in the disturbed mining districts. The governor had refused to produce the petition before the committee until he had first submitted it to the secretary of war, to whom it was addressed, The petition bears about 2,500 signatures, and cities that all of the signers are citizens of Idaho and of the county of Shoshone and the Coeur d'Alene mining district. They petition that the secretary of war be allowed a small force of federal troops to in the quarters provided for them and occupied by them at the town of Osborn, Shoshone county, for as long a time as Governor Steunenberg may think their presence necessary for the preservation of peace and order. The citizens also express their approval of all the acts that have been done by the governor and the officials of their state to preserve peace and order and to bring criminals to justice. The petition says that some of the acts of the state authorities may appear to people at a distance to be drastic and severe, but the signers, who are familiar with the conditions which existed for several years prior to the declaration of martial law last May, know that drastic measures were necessary to stop the band of conspirators, who, shielding themselves behind the name of the labor organization, had created a reign of terror and tyranny seldom equaled in the history of the community. In conclusion the signors beg to state the efforts of the governor and the state officials, assisted by the military officials, have brought peace and good order to the district and given an impetus to all business interests and a sense of safety to all people, which are highly appreciated, and for which the signors are grateful. REVIVAL OF OLD CUSTOM. Both Braches of Methodist Church To Meet at Same Time In Washington. For the first time since 1861, when the Baltimore conference of the Methodist Episcopal church divided, the two organizations, the Methodist Episcopal and the Methodist Episcopal church, south, will meet simultaneously in annual conference in Washington during the week. The Methodist denomination in the United states divided in 1844 on the question of slavery, but the Baltimore conference remained undivided until shortly after the outbreak of the civil war. Since 1861 there have been two Baltimore conferences. The sessions of the Methodist Episcopal church will be held at the Metropolitan M. E. church, and Bishop John M. Walden will preside. The M. E. church, south, will meet in the Mount Vernon church and Bishop W. A. Candler, of Georgia, will preside and make the opening address. ROBERTS EXPRESSES SYMPATHY. Wires Condolence to Kruger On the Death of General Joubert. Lord Roberts has sent the following dispatch to President Kruger: "Have just heard of the death of General Joubert, and desire to offer my sincere condolence upon the sad event. Would ask you to convey to General Joubert's family an expression of my most respectful sympathy with their sad bereavement, and to assure them also from me that all ranks of her majesty's forces share my feeling of deep regret at the sudden and untimely end of so distinguished a general, who devoted his life to the services of his country, and whose personal gallantry was only surpassed by his humane conduct and chivalrous bearing under all circumstances." PROVES EXISTENCE OF WAR. Dismissal of Major Kirkman Makes the Filipina Belligerents. Secretary Root stated Monday that Major George O. Kirkman, Fortyninth volunteer infantry, is no longer in the service of the United States. Under the articles of war, the approval by General Otis of the action of the courtmartial which recommended Kirkman for dismissal on the charge of drunkenness, was sufficient to execute the sentence. Kirkman was accused of being drunk on the transport Liverpool on the voyage from San Francisco to Manila, and of insulting a priest aboard his vessel. Tribune.

Had No Statement to Make Except That He Was Innocent of the Murder of Mrs. Pottle. Allon Fuller, the negro who murdered Mrs. Eugenia Hamilton Pottle on the night of November 20th, 1899, was hanged in the Bibb county jail at Macon, Gal, Monday morning. The negro made no confession and merely stafed, when he was given an opportunity to speak, that what he had said was true. No newspaper men were allowed to be present by Judge Felton, and only the ministers of the gospel were allowed in the jail, besides the physicians and the officers who were needed. Fuller's remarkable nerve failed him as he walked on the gallows. The officers had to hold him on the trapdoor when Sheriff Westcostt pulled the trigger, as he had fallen forward against the railing. The attending physicians say that the execution was one of the most successful that they have ever witnessed and that the negro's neck was broken. Fuller slept well Sunday night and ate a hearty breakfast Monday morning. Up to the last moment he seemed to show little dread of the ordeal before him, and not until he was on the trap did he show any weakness. The streets on each side of the jail and the parks in the center were crowded with negroes, who began to assemble by 8 o'clock. There were many white people also, but the crowd was quiet, there being no demonstration at all. In order to avoid any disorder that might have occurred, however, Chief Boifeuillet had a special force of police placed around the jail. About 10:30 Sheriff Westcott and the physicians arrived at the jail. They were followed almost immediately by several colored ministers, Revs. W. G. Alexander, S. M. Hawkins, M. D. Spencer, H. T. Johnson and J. R. McClain. They were taken at once to Fuller's cell, where a short service of song and prayer was held. Fuller expressed the belief that he had been converted and after death would go to heaven. The service lasted for 15 minutes, and after it had been completed the ministers asked, that they be allowed to have a short prayer and sing one verse of a song just before the murderer was sent into eternity. The request was granted. When Fuller was led to the gallows a song was sung and a brief prayer for the soul of the doomed man was said. Fuller was then asked if he had any statement to make. He replied: "No, sir; I have got nothing more to say than I have already said. I did not commit the murder and am innocent. What I have already said is true." The black cap was then put over his head and the rope adjusted. The drop fell promptly at 11 o'clock and Fuller was pronounced dead in five minutes by the physicians who were present.

Among the more important of the new industries reported during the past week are a basket and crate factory in Georgia; bottling works in Arkansas; brick works in Tennessee and Texas; canning factory in Virginia; a carriage factory in Alabama; coal mines in Texas; copper mines in North Carolina; a construction company in West Virginia; one cotton mill each in Alabama and Arkansas, three in Georgia, one in North Carolina, four in South Carolina, one in Tennessee and four in Texas; cotton seed oil mills in Mississippi and South Carolina; a creamery in Georgia; an electric light plant in Louisiana; an electrical supply company in West Virginia; a fertilizer factory in Florida; gas works in West Virginia; a hardware company in North Carolina; ice factories in Georgia and Texas; iron and manganese mines in Virginia; three knitting mills in North Carolina; lumber mills in Florida and Mississippi; a machine shop in Alabama; a naval stores company in Georgia; a pants factory in Kentucky; a phosphate company in Tennessee; a photographic dry plate manufactory in Texas; planing mills in Mississippi and Texas; a telephone company in Texas; a tobacco factory in North Carolina; a $50,000 towel factory in South Carolina; a water power company in East Tennessee; water works in Georgia.—Tradesman (Chattanooga, Tenn.) REPUBLICS MAY AMALHAMATE. Report of Proposed Union of Transvaal and Free State Comes From Pretoria. It is reported from Pretoria that a scheme has been arranged for the amalgamation of the Transvaal and the Free State. Krruger will become president of the federated states and Steyn commandant general of the Boer army. The flag will be the same as that of the Traansvaal, with an additional orange color. Machinists Decide to Strike. The machinists of Cleveland, O., decided to go on a strike Thursday morning. Between 1,500 and 2,000 men are affected. NO 26 DAVIS TO TALK FOR THE BOERS Assistant Secretary of the Interior Resigns. HE ESPOUSES KRUGER'S CAUSE Has Just Returned From Tour of South Africa and Is Loaded With Information. A Washington special says: Webster Davis, assistant secretary of the interior, tendered his resignation to President McKinley Monday. He will go on the lecture platform in the interest of the Boers. In an authorized statement given out, Mr. Davis says that as a result of his visit to the Transvaal he feels impelled to tender his resignation as assistant secretary of the interior. He will at an early date deliver a lecture in the interest of the South African republic. Mr. Davis feels that this is the best way to arouse the enthusiasm of the American people in behalf of those republics. Mr. Davis decided to take this course as the result of his visit to South Africa. He has decided to deliver a public address touching the entire scope of the present war and believes that he can best do so while free from any restraint which his present position would impose upon him. When taking his departure home from Pretoria 2,000 gathered to take leave of him at the station. They appealed to him in tears to state their cause to the American people, and Mr. Davis says his conscience would haunt him if he proved recrent to that pillful appeal. He believes the American people are not truly informed on the situation. He will, therefore, avail himself of an early opportunity to relate his experience and observations at a public meeting that shall be free to all. Mr. Davis has decided on this course after mature deliberation and free consultation with his friends. Davis, who is a resident of Kansas City, has a reputation in the west of being a great orator. He was especially prominent in the campaign which led up to the nomination of McKinley at St. Louis. Those who do not approve of his course declare that as soon as he got to Washington Davis became afflicted with the swelled head and that his change of heart is entirely due to his chagrin in being called down when Secretary Hitchcock took control of the interior department. They say that Davis at that time was fondly imagining himself the most important figure in administration circles, and that because Secretary Hitchcock did not so regard him he sulked and went off to Africa to find some pretext for further self-advertisement. A good deal of this may be true, but it does not minimize the political importance of this action of the assistant secretary of the interior. There is no doubt that the overwhelming sentiment of the American people is with the Boers and that sentiment is not likely to die out when men like Davis who have been on the scene become active in the agitation in their behalf. RACE QUESTION IN CUBA. Whites Will Fight For Office and Color Line Will Be Clearly Drawn. The funeral of Mayor Valiente took place at Santiago Sunday afternoon with elaborate ceremonies. United States officers acted as honorary pallbearers. The military and civil procession extended two miles. The death of Senor Valiente materially changes the political situation. His re-election was considered assured, but now there is a prospect of a hard fight between the rival candidates of the black and white parties. Recent developments have shown that the color line will be closely drawn and there may be trouble. The whites declare their intention to organize an annexation party rather than to accept negro domination. GREAT GOBS OF ORATORY Brought Out In Discussion of the Porto Rican Bill in the Senate. A Washington dispatch says: As the hour for the senate's vote upon the Porto Rican bill drew near the popular interest, so far as Washington is concerned, was greatly increased. Monday there was a flow of oratory in the upper house of congress and the result was that the galleries were crowded almost to suffocation, and thousands of people were turned away, unable to gain admission. Perhaps a good deal of this interest was due to the announcement-that Senator Depew would be among the speakers. The Savannah Tribune PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY BY THE TREBUNE PUBLISHING CO, ST.

SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 1900. "LAWLESSNESS begets lawless- ness." No locality can hope to succeed in inviting capital when its citizens or even a part of its citizens have no regard for law or order. AND now Admiral Dewey has said that "Barkus is willin'", and has announced his readiness to become a presidential candidate. Within the past few months the admiral has been acting in a manner in which he has lost much prestige, and this latter affair will cause many to smile ludicrously at him. REV. E. K. LOVE and Prof. Wright have been in Washington this week carrying their troubles to President McKinley and Chairman Hanna. The president and chairman it is safe to say were greatly bored by these professional bolters and rumpers, and we are willing to wage that they bolted from the white house. MUNICIPAL elections have been held in many of the western cities during the week. In many instances the republicans were victorious and in cities where the democrats have held sway. One of the most significant elections was that of Mr. Bryan's city, Lincoln, Neb. It went overwhelmingly republican. The democratic leader will find it very hard explaining it away. The grand jury will fail to perform its duty fully if it takes no steps whatever to investigate the Bloomingdale lynching. The jury is composed of real strong and fair minded gentlemen and it is hoped that they will take the proper step in the matter. We are not clamoring for it because we condone the crime that the murdered man was accused of, but because of the lawless act of the mob. If the murdered man was not caught, we would have been equally anxious for his apprehension, a legal trial and execution. THE TRIBUNE has repeatedly called attention to the large number of our people who are non-church goers, and that some means should be adopted to reach them. The matter has been discussed in the ministers' meeting, but no definite plan was suggested to do the work. Rev. John Croly, the indefatigable pastor of Asbury M. E. church has made an effort to do something on this line. He knows that it is a very difficult matter to get these people to attend church, so he has gone to them. He has erected a large tent in a section of the city where such services are needed, and is holding daily meetings. The effort of Rev. Croly is a commendable one, and in it he should have the support of every minister of the city as well as of every christian. A few weeks ago one of our contemporaries published an article about a certain colored instructress in one of our colleges. The article was copied by the Republican Leader of Atlanta, and it made the following comment: "The 'girl' referred to is employed at the State College for colored children and is preferred, for some inexplicable reason, over noble women with better education and without taint. This is the work of the educated Negro at the head of a Negro college, and aspiring to run both the education and the politics of his race. 'Thus the Negro seems to be damned.'" On account of the above comment, the teacher alluded to has entered suit for libel against Hon. II. A. Rucker and Mr. Will L. Mosely. To a Constitution reporter Mr. Rucker said: "The fight is not between me and Augusta Smith, but between me and R. R. Wright. I did not know the woman and never heard of her before. It is a political persecution that is all. I do not own or control The Leader and am not responsible for anything that appears in its columns." He called attention to the fact that Wright has attempted to run the state convention in 1896 and on being turned down had appealed to the national convention and failed to receive recognition there. Rucker declared it was a political fight and was brought about by Wright. "I don't know anything about the case" he said, "but I shall be ready for trial at any time and will be able to show that I cannot be truthfully charged with any wrong doing." Monday night reached the city that a colored man name Allen Brooks had committed an assault on a white woman at Blomingdale, about fourteen miles on the Central railroad. Search was immediately made for the accused and he was found and identified the next morning, and soon after lynchcd and his body riddled with bullets. Lynching is a rare occurrence in this section of the state, and for that reason, this affair has caused much excitement. The races in this section, as a general thing, get along peaceably. The crime that the man Brooks was accused of is a horrible one, and should not be countenanced by any one, and if he was guilty of the crime should have received the fullest penalty of the law, and no one would have helped to have the law enforced more than the colored citizens. The colored citizens approve always of the law taking its course in every instance, but condemn in the strongest terms the action of those who lynched the accused. We will grant that the crime was a henious one, which caused the feelings of the neighbors of the victim to be much wrought up at the time, yet we are looking up at our white neighbors for a higher conception and respect of the law. After Brooks was captured there was no possible means for him to have escaped. He could have been easily carried to jail, got a speedy trial, and if found guilty, executed accordingly. Our white citizens had nothing to fear upon that point. They have the full machinery of the law in their hands and are in a position to see its mandates fully carried out. We reiterate that we are utterly opposed to the crime committed, and in the same term condemn the men who engaged in the lynching. The question has been asked could not the accused been saved from the hands of the lynchers? If there was any person in the crowd who respected the law, the question could be answered in the affirmative. If there was such a person in the crowd he kept very quiet. Can the officers of the law be blamed? The very same manner that the daily papers could employ a reporter to go to the neighborhood of the crime, and he witnessed nearly everything that occurred, it seems reasonable that the officers of the law could have had deputies on the scene to maintain law and order. The leaders in this mob should be apprehended. There can possibly be no trouble in apprehending them. From accounts no masks were worn. Everybody knew each other. The newspapers were able to give vivid accounts. They must know something about the facts. Will the officers be vigilant? Can the better element among the white citizens allow this stain against law and order to remain without some efforts be made to clear it? Such affairs do them more harm than otherwise. It ruins their sense for law and order and make them more vicious and lawless. The Atlanta Journal in commenting on the suit instigated, it is said, by Prof. R. R. Wright against Collector Rucker at Atlanta makes a bad break when it says that "Wright is known as the Booker-Washington of Georgia." As we understand the matter Professor Washington gives his time and talents to the upbuilding of his school, while Prof. Wright spends a great portion of his time and energies attending political conventions and antagonizing the leading men of the state by inoculating the young Negro to their detriment with the idea that they must go into politics and support him politically. Prof. Wright is known as a professional politician with bolting proclivities. He is noted for causing trouble in the Republican party and has forfeited the confidence of a very large and the best element of the republicans of Georgia. The stalwarts always distrusted him, and now that the rank and file of the party have repudiated him he will keep up strife by endeavoring to contest the seats of republicans elected to the Philadelphia convention. We have not heard of Booker Washington sending out certain members of his faculty through Alabama with a view of electing delegates favorable to his going to a national political convention. Rambler and Gabe. THE BRUNSWICK COLONY. Me and Gabe ran across a big colony of Brunswickians last week and I tell you there are some mighty good people there and from there. Among those who hurried here to see George were B. L. Jordan and James G. Carter. Mr. Jordan is the finest shoe-maker there; he owns a beautiful home over there, he has a most amiable wife who is the best cook to be found anywhere and I am told by some who have visited them that they hated for the time to come when they had to leave. Mr. Carter has the leading tailoring establishment, is a carrier in the post office, and city editor of the Brunswick Herald. He is also a social light and a great Christian worker. There are not many Carters in Brunswick or elsewhere and me and Gabe are proud of this one. I hear there were several other Brunswickians here but they kept out of sight. There are several good people from Brunswick living in Savannah though, for the present. When Capt. Churchill pulled up stakes and left Brunswick he brought some scores of hands here to continue working for him and several of them brought their families with them. Among those we have recently met are Robt. Henderson and his son Robert, Jr.; Isaac Lester, George Hutchins, Dan Gambles, Joe Jenkins, George Molette, Tom Nash, Philip Lee, Charlie Bryan, John Williams, Sam Gardner, Joe Bridges, Will Fisher, O. W. Lewis, Sherman Lee, C. A. Miles, his mother and sister Anna Miles, S. M. McGilbry, and family, Mrs. Lou Berry and daughters who are attending Beacon Institute, James Ballard, Walter Merridy, O. Wheeler, Ed. Clark, Mack McClure, S. E. Felder, Rev. David Marsh, Lee Godfrey and wife and Rev. L. Martin. All of these are hard working thrifty and intelligent people. They are held in high esteem by the good citizens of Brunswick and since coming here have ingratiated themselves into the good graces of the people of Savannah, Many of them are earnest christians and leading church workers who delight to honor God and serve their fellow-men. Me and Gabe have our weather eye upon them; we see what they are doing and shall from time to time let the world know of their works. It is whispered around that Capt. Churchill may return to Brunswick next season and if he does most of his men with their families will return also. For the sake of Savannah and the hope of keeping these good people here we wish the Captain would decide to remain here. We understand however, that Brunswick is offering him extra inducements to return there. Why cannot the business men of Savannah make inducements to offset those of Brunswick? It is worth while, for the money spent with the merchants and the houses rented by those who are here working for Capt. Churchill amounts to many thousands of dollars a year and the business men will miss it when its gone. SAPPHO THE SIREN. I cannot understand why there is so much talk about "Sappho." It is getting more free advertisement than it really deserves. It is more than a cheap novel with no ideal, no literary accomplishment and nothing to commend it but an indirect appeal to the baser passions of mankind. If there was not so much said about it its ill-fame would soon perish of its own inaction and utter worthlessness. The book dealers are the only ones reaping any benefits from this free advertisement and those who would suppress it are only causing more of them to be sold. RAMBLER AND GABE. Mr. Milledge's Death. Although Mr. York M. Milledge has been sick for about two months, and at times his condition was precarious, yet the announcement of his death was a shock to his many friends. He died at nine o'clock on Wednesday night last. Mr. Milledge was about 41 years old, well-known and liked by those who knew him. He was a member of the Second Baptist church, and an active worker in the Sunday school, a member of Armour Lodge of Odd Fellowa' and of the Mutual Benevolent Association. He has held positions in all of these institutions. He was at one time in the employ of the city and held other positions of trust. He leaves a loving wife, three sisters, Mrs. H. C. Lyons of New Haven, Conn., Mrs. Cornelia Rutledge, and Mrs. Mary Green, and a brother, Mr. Paul Milledge of this city, and a host of other relatives. The remains were buried from the church of which he was a member for many years and the last tribute of respect was paid his memory by the institutions of which he was a member. The pastor, Dr. Durham, spoke touchingly of his many virtues. Among the many floral offerings was an anchor presented by the Sunday school. The bereaved family has the sympathy of all their friends. Asbury'a New Site. Negotiations are being made by the trustees of Ashbury M. E. church for the purchase of the lot adjoining the church, which faces on West Broad street and runs from Gwinnett street to the lane. The outlook is that the negotiations will succeed, if it does, the entire lot will be divided, the church retaining the one on West Broad and Gwinnett, and will dispose of the one corner the lane. It was proposed by the church sometime ago to erect a brick edifice: This will be done on this new lot. If the plans on foot are carried out, Ashbury will have an imposing site and at the same time a beautiful edifice. A LADY in Philadelphia has recently given Booker T.

'The Grand Master paid a visit to Eureka Lodge on Wednesday night and left words of encouragement. Several of the brethren spoke in terms of commendation of the work that he is doing. The lodges that failed to pay a part or any of the installments levied by the Grand Lodge, should attend to the same immediately. The work inaugurated can succeed only so far as the individual lodges do their duty. It is reported that a man named Keiser, alleged to be a Grand Master from Florida is making the rounds of the lodges and fleeing them. The brethren should beware of such imposters and refuse to admit them in their lodges. If such fellows continue to impose upon the lodges they will be prosecuted according to law. Grand Master W. E. Terry was in the city the greater part of the week. He arrived on Saturday and on Monday visited Eastern Star Lodge at Ellabell. He returned to the city Tuesday and remained until Thursday morning when he left for St. George Lodge at Stillmore. The Grand Master reports the lodges to be in good condition. Locals.

Gone to a home, prepared by his Savior, Gone to a mansion, not made with hands, Free to enjoy, forever and ever, The beauty and grandeur of that blessed land. Gone, but how precious that dear loving promise I go to prepare a place for my own; Faithful he worked until his dear Savior Whispered so gently, Hercules come home. Gone, there to mingle his voice with the angels, In glory and praise to his "God and King;" Lovingly watching the heavenly portals. For his loved ones here to enter in. I sat and watched by the bedside And did not close my eyes; I could not ease the awful pain. That caused each nerve to strain.

FOR BEST SERVICES Dav Brown's Law Firm Physicians recommend A. AllGoals know it. $1.00 per book and indemnity per book. Dav Brown's THREE MEN WERE HORRIBLY MANGLED Steam Boiler Hurled Through the Air Five Hundred Feet. Accident Was a Most Remarkable One. Boiler Welghed Five Tons and Was But Little Damaged. An Atlanta dispatch says: Three men were killed by a boiler explosion at the brick yard of the G. O. Williams Lumber company, on the Chattahoochee River trolley car line, about four miles from the city, shortly after 11 o'clock Monday morning. The explosion was a terrific one, the boiler flying through the roof of the engine room and striking the earth nearly 500 feet away from the brick yard. The boiler weighed nearly five tons, and was of sixty-horse power. The accident was undoubtedly a most remarkable one, as not a break can be found in the boiler. When the coroner was investigating the affair he heard hints of the explosion having been probably caused by dynamite, but this was merely a vague suspicion. The three men killed were: John M. Smith, white, aged about fifty-six years: Walter Evans, white, twenty-one years old. James Perkins, white, twenty-five years old. Five negroes were injured, but it is thought none will die. Perkins was killed instantly. Smith lived about five minutes, and Evans died about four hours after the accident. The manner in which the three men were crushed and mutilated, and the great distance the heavy iron boiler was hurled through the air, showed the terrific force of the explosion. A remarkable feature of the accident was the fact that although such force was evident, yet the boiler itself was but little injured. It seems to have risen straight up from its foundations, passed through the roof of the building and then shot toward the car line, clearing a negro cabin and the trolley wires and harding upon its end. When it struck the ground it bounded up and planted itself in the earth several feet away. The cause of the accident is, not definitely known, but it is believed the cold water must have been turned into the hot boiler when it was empty or nearly so. Unfortunately the accident happened at a time when the engine had been shut down for a few moments for repairs, and nearly all the employers were standing near it. Mr. Smith was found lying against a pile of lumber fully 40 feet away from where the boiler had been. He was standing with four feet of the boiler when it exploded. He was badly mangled. The body of James Perkins was found wrapped around a post about ten feet away from the engine. It had been whirled with great force against the big post and death was instantaneous. No limbs were torn from the body, though one of his arms and both legs hung only by small shreds of flesh. Walter Evans was found about thirty feet away, where he had been thrown with great force. He was resting against a pile of brick, and it is thought that he struck the brick head first, as his head was badly mashed. Blood was flowing from many wounds, too, on his body. He was sent to his home and died shortly afterward. The negroes who were injured were found at different places about the yard. Some were badly scalded, while others were injured by flying debris. All of the six men were painfully and severely hurt. Broadwood's Casualties. The London war office reports that Colonel Broadwood lost seven guns and all his baggage in the ambush laid for him by the Bores on Saturday. The casualties numbered 350. Pensioner of 1812 Dead. "Aunt" Emily Bennett, the oldest citizen of Plainfield, Conn., and the last 1812 pensioner in the county, died Sunday after a long illness, aged 89. -Demand Higher Wages. Several Thousand men in New York City and neighboring towns in New Jersey and Westchester county, New York, struck Monday for increased wages, and shorter hours. Most of the strikers are carpenters and the enormous amount of building in progress favors the men. Installment Goes to Porto Rico. Arrangements have been made by the war department for the transfer of $660,000 of the $2,000,000 appropriated for the relief of Porto Rico. Governor General Davis will spend the money in payment for labor in public improvements at the rate of about $100,-000 a month. DEAD BROKE IN CUBA. Many Americans Are Financially Stranded and Destitute In the Island. The war department has been obliged to sound a note of warning to restrain over-confident Americans from stocking into Cuba without resources. General Wood has made this a matter of special representations to Secretary Root. He reports that there are quite a number of such Americans completely stranded in Cuba, whom he is unable to relieve. NEW PLAN PROPOSED Whereby State Militia May Be Used By Government In Lieu of Large Standing Army. Representative Hay, of Virginia, a prominent member of the military committee, has prepared with great care a bill to create of the militia of the several states a reserve volunteer army for use in time of war, to supplement the regular army. The bill contemplates a general broadening of the national guard, its equipment with the service rifle and its complete organization in time of war into regiments, brigades, divisions and corps, with the three battalion formation, as in the regular army, and is designed to obviate the necessity of a large standing army upon the expiration of the present law July 1, 1901, increasing the standing army to 65,000 and authorizing the present volunteer army of 35,000. The measure receives additional importance from the fact that Mr. Hay is chairman of the Democratic caucus. The bill makes all citizens between the ages of eighteen and forty-five liable to military service in the volunteer army. It appropriates $4,000,000 annually for the maintenance and equipment of the national guard of the several states, this forming the nucleus of the volunteer army, and requires the secretary of war to keep in each state a supply of ordnance stores sufficient for ninety days' use of the national guard of the state in the event of war. It provides a system of mobilization for the guard by dividing the states into military divisions and provides for a board of officers in each state who shall hold examinations for the position of second lieutenant in the national guard, such officers to be promoted for merit and efficiency. "The time has come," said Mr. Hay, in explanation of his bill, "when it is necessary to consider carefully the question of the future military establishment of the United States. In the minds of many the maintenance of a large standing army seems a necessity, and at first blush it would seem that there is no other way out of the difficulty which now confronts us. "A careful consideration of the question has led to the belief that the situation can be met without a resort to that worst enemy of a republic—a large and permanent military establishment. The secretary of war has well said that 'the regular establishment in the United States will never be by itself the whole machine with which any war will be fought.' This being admitted, it will certainly not be contended that in time of peace the regular establishment will be 'the whole machine.' "On the first day of July, 1901, the present army will be reduced to its peace basis of 26,610 men. Taking into account the situation which may confront us at that time, will it be necessary to increase the regular establishment beyond that number? The reasons given for such increase are various, but the most important are that there must be a sufficient number of men to man effectively our sea coast defenses; a sufficient number to preserve peace and order in the Philippine islands, and a sufficient number to do police duty against the Indians and to take care of the various posts in the United States. "The number of men sufficient for these purposes is variously estimated at from 65,000 to 103,000 men, but it is not now necessary to determine this question, because a year may materially change present conditions. "But it will be admitted by all that the strongest argument which can be used against a large standing army is the creation of a well organized and thoroughly equipped national guard. "This country has fought all of her wars with citizen soldiers and no good reason can be given for departing from that policy." Boer Prisoners Are Dying.

LAKE CITY CASE GOES OYER. South Carolina Citizens Are Charged With Lynching Negro Postmaster. In the federal court at Charleston, S. C., Tuesday, the case against the Lake City citizens charged with lynching Postmaster Baker, colored, and burning the postoffice in 1898, was carried over to April term. The motion to continue was made by the district attorney. The case was tried last year and after being vigorously prosected resulted in a mistrial. It is the general opinion that the government will abandon its effort to convict the parties and the matter may rest where it is. BOUGHT YEAR'S OUTPUT.

One of the curiosities in England at present is the old convict ship Success, which has recently been converted into a museum, or into what a foreign journalist styles "a chamber of horrors." It was built 110 years ago, and its first years were spent in cruising between the East Indies and England. In 1823 the British Admiralty bought and stationed it in the waters of Western Australia. Captain Stirling was then in command, and from his Scottish birthplace the town of Perth in Australia takes its name. From 1847 to 1851 the Success plied between London and Port Adelaide. The Success was next used to transport criminals of the deepest dye to Van Diemen's Land, as Tasmania was then called, and it also served as a floating prison for especially dangerous criminals. Old records show that some awful scenes took place on it. The prisoners' cells were in two tiers under the deck and were so small that the inmates could hardly move in them. Moreover, they were so fashioned that they could be made light or dark, and the most insubordinate prisoners were always placed in the latter. These curious cells, many of the old instruments of torture, and a number of wax figures, representing famous criminals, are now being exhibited on the Success, and are attracting a crowd of sightseers. The old ship is at present in Leith harbor, in Scotland. Strange Predicament of a Bird. A writer in Bird Lore says: "Several years ago, when in a Western town, I was taken to a neighbor's to see his birds. Four cages swung in the shelter of a commodious porch. One contained a red-winged blackbird that had been taken from its nest when very young and brought up by hand. His associates were a canary, a bluejay and an orole. The canary had been purchased at a bird store, and had been taken from neighboring nests, and had, no doubt, picked up the characteristic notes of their species from the many other members of their kind that inhabited the vicinity, but it was many miles to the nearest swamp or lowland where one might find a red-winged blackbird. The red-wing had learned perfectly the notes of his caged companions, and had picked up some notes of other birds in the neighborhood, but not one note of the red-winged blackbird did he know."
