Published by The TRIBUNE PTBLISHING COMPANY. VOL. XVI. COMPROMISE BARRED Millionaire Morgan Says Trust Will Concede Nothing. DENIES RUMOR OF SETTLEMENT Battle Between Labor and Capital Must Be Fought Out to Bitter End—Both Sides Are A New York special says: J. P. Morgan gave positive denial Friday to rumors that the steel strike had been settled. He made this statement to the Associated Press: "There is not a word of truth in it. There has been no settlement and there can be no compromise on such a question. The position of the operating companies is perfectly simple and well understood and, so far as I am concerned, has my unqualified approval." Mr. Warner Arms, vice president of the American Tin Plate Company, made the following statement Friday to a representative of the Associated Press: "Mr. Shaffer wants these companies to sign for all the non-union mills. A wage agreement is a contract entered into voluntarily between two or more persons representing certain interests. Mr. Shaffer has no right to ask these companies to sign an agreement with him for persons he does not represent. These companies are not antagonistic to labor and have proved it by entering into wage agreements in the past with Mr. Shaffer for those that he represented. This year the American Tin Plate Company entered into an agreement for one year from July 1st, but Mr. Shaffer violated that agreement by calling out the men on a sympathetic strike when they had no grievances." No Change In Situation. A Pittsburg dispatch says: The strike situation cannot be termed materially changed. Many rumors are in the air to the effect that a settlement of the trouble is imminent, but none of these reports have been verified. At the offices of the Carnegie company and at the headquarters of the manufacturers the usual silence is preserved. President Shaffer, of the Amalgamated Association, expresses his entire satisfaction with the progress of the battle, and says the workers have gained steadily, while the manufacturers have lost continually since the strike began. He says up to the present the Amalgamated Association forces contemplate no change in their programme, being fully satisfied with the showing their people have made. President Shaffer says the advance in wages offered the tube mill workers at McKeesport Friday, while seemingly large, will not bring the pay up to the union scale. Commencing in a day or two, weekly bulletins will be issued from Amalgamated headquarters to give the workers and strikers official news of the exact condition of strike affairs. From the storm center at Wellsville, O., comes word that the striking mill men in that vicinity spent an uneasy, restless day. The American Sheet Steel Company has many of the town's largest merchants back of it in its fight against the workmen, the merchants fearing that if the present trouble goes along much further the Wellsville plant will be moved across the line into Pennsylvania. Grocers, clothing men, and others are trying to show the stiltriers that they are wrong and foolish in keeping up the fight. Ex-Senator Pugh Improving. Former Senator Pugh, of Alabama, who has been critically ill in Washington, has improved considerably. His physician now believes the senator has a god chance of recovery. Lives of Boers Are Saved. Advices from Cape Town state that Lord Kitchener has commuted the sentence of death passed on thirty-four Boer prisoners to penal servitude for life at Bermuda. TAMPA'S STRIKE TROUBLES International Cigar Makers Take Places of Za Resistencia Workers. More than one hundred International Cigarmakers broke the La Resistencia strike at the factory of Guesta, Rey & Co., at Tampa, Fla., Monday. The La Resistencia struck because the house opened a branch in Jackson- ville. The Internationals commenced work Monday morning under a heavy guard of deputy sheriffs. The general strike, which is now threatened, will affect more than 4,000 people. REWARD OFFERED FOR MOB. Governor of Mississippi Anxious to Make Amends For Murder of Italians. A Washington special says: Mr. Caraignini, the Italian *charge, called upon Acting Secretary of State Hill Saturday to prepare a note as to the progress being made into the investigation of the killing of the Italians at Erwin, Miss., recently. The charge has not yet been able to secure evidence to establish the nationality of the men, although the Italian authorities originally reported otherwise, and unless this shall be forthcoming and it shall be shown that they were not neutralized to the United States there will be no further proceedings in the case as far as the state department is concerned. Governor Longino, of Mississippi, Saturday afternoon offered $100 reward for the arrest and conviction of each of the murderers of Glowanna and vincenzo Serlo and the wounding or Salvator Liberto by a mob at Erwin, Miss. The governor received a letter from Secretary Hay inclosing a copy of a note from the Italian charge d'affaires. in which Secretary Hay asked to be advised whether the persons killed were Italians subjects or had been naturalized. Replying to Secretary Hay Saturday, Governor Longino states that his private advices are that none of the Italians named above were naturalized American citizens, but that he will make official inquiry and report later. The governor advises Secretary Hay that he went in person to Washington county the second day after the unfortunate occurrence, where he learned from the sheriff that the Italian consulate at Vicksburg had asked for protection for these Italian subjects. the governor found that the sheriff, promptly upon the receipt of his telegram, visited the scene of the murder, but he was unable to ascertain the names of the guilty parties. The crime was committed under cover of darkness and the murderers fled, leaving no trace of their identity. The people of Greenville, the county site of Washington, where the murder occurred, met in mass meeting and by resolution deplored and condemned the action of the guilty parties and requested a special term of the circuit court in order that the stain may be wiped out by the punishment of the criminals. The governor transmits a copy of these resolutions to Secretary Hay, whom he assures, and through him the Italian government, that every effort will be made to apprehend and punish the guilty parties. MORE CENSUS FIGURES. Statistics of School, Militia and Voting Age In Georgia and Florida. The census office at Washington issued a statement.Saturday giving the the statistics of the school, militia and voting population of the state of Florida and Georgia as follows: School Age—Florida, 197,600; Georgia, 885,725. Males of Voting Age—Florida, 139,601; Georgia, 500,752. The school children are as follows: Florida—Foreign born, 3,668; colored, 87,063; males, 98,820; females, 94,780.

Thermometers in many places showed 110. Numerous prostrations are reported. JOINT RAIDING RESUMED. Seven Women at Eldorado, Kansas, Rout Sunday Bear Sellers. At Eldorado, Kans., Sunday seven women, headed by Mrs. H. T. Grover, president of the local Woman's Christian Temperance Union, entered a "joint" run by a man named Busch, in a tent in the center of town, and demolished a tub full of bottled bear. They took samples of the liquor to the sheriff, who later ordered the "jointist" to quit business. Five hundred people gathered while the raid was in progress. A "jointist" in another part of town loaded his stock into a wagon and disappeared. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JULY 27. 1901. SCHLEY IS AROUSED Hero of Santiago Will Turn Upon His Public Calumniators. For His Fairly Earned Fame He Will Fight Before a Jury to Be Composed of Noted Naval Officers. The Washington Post Monday night telegraphed Admiral Schley that in an editorial it insisted that he owed it to himself as well as to his friends to begin proceedings against Mr. Maclay, the author of the history of the United States navy, to disprove the latter's charge, adding: "Will you do this? Please wire statement." Tuesday it received the following telegram: "Great Neck, L. I., July 23.—Editors Washington Post: I believe the first step should be investigation of all matters by court, then a civil action afterwards. I am preparing to take this course. W. S. SCHLEY." The Post of Wednesday morning, as a result of extensive inquiries based on the admiral's dispatch contained the following: "Admiral Schley proposes to ask an investigation at the hands of a naval court of inquiry and then to sue Historian Maclay for libel. "His action is the sequel to the developments during the past week when the entire country has been stirred by the publication of the unexamined abuse poured out upon him in the third volume of E. S. Maclay's history of the United States navy, in which publication Schley is said to have run away 'in catflight flight' and is in addition denounced a coward, a cur and a traitor." Will Be Notable Court. The Schley court of inquiry will undoubtedly be one of the most celebrated in the naval or military history of the country. The high rank of the officers involved in the controversy and the intense public feeling aroused will combine to give the investigation a dramatic interest. Nothing has occurred in Washington for many years that will compare with it. The appointment of the court of inquiry is expected to be made by Secretary Long, though it would be in the power of the president to make the selection if he chose. This is hardly likely to occur, however. Admiral Schley's letter asking for the appointment of a court will be addressed to Secretary Long, who is his immediate chief. To address the communication to the president, ignoring Secretary Long, would not only be a breach of naval etiquette, but would be totally at variance with Schley's careful observance of punctillous procedure. The court, therefore, will be named by Secretary Long unless he shall prefer to refer the matter to the president. Secretary Long has stated that if Schley requested a court-inquiry he will grant the request and he has also expressed his willingness to personally select the court. While he has not made any statement as to its personnel, there is every reason to believe that he favors Admiral Dewey and Rear Admirals Ramsay and Benham, the two latter being now upon the retired list. The name of Admiral Walker has been suggested, but it is known that he expressed views on the Sampson-Schley controversy in antagonism to Schley, and his appointment would therefore be questioned. It is said that Dewey, Ramsay and Benham have always carefully avoided giving an opinion as to the merits of the controversy. All these officers are residents of Washington, although temporarily out of the city to escape the heat, but could be quickly summoned to take their place around the table of the court. Two Killed On Trestle. A train on the Louisville and Nashville railroad struck three negro children a few miles northeast of Memphis, Tenn., Tuesday, killing two and injuring another fatally. KANSAS PEOPLE TORTURED. Temperature Throughout the State Tuesday Between 100 and 110 Tuesday Between 100 and 110. Temperatures in Kansas Tuesday were as high as 110, and in no case were figures less than 100 reported. Everything is stifled with dust and water is becoming very scarce. Over a month of 100 degrees temperature, with hardly any rain, is the story reported from many Kansas counties. Pending the advent of rain, farmers are rushing their stock to market, trying to buy feed for their stock and hunting for water. In the cities the price of milk and other farm products have largely increased. Tribune. HUNT TO SUCCEED ALLEN. Precent Secretary of Porto Rico Selected by McKinley For Governor of the Island. A Washington special says: William H. Hunt, the present secretary of Porto Rico, has been selected to succeed Governor Charles H. Allen upon the retirement of the latter from the insular government. Governor Allen brought with him all of his household goods when he came from San Juan, and does not expect to return to Porto Rico. The formal announcement of the selection of Mr. Hunt for governor is withheld-until the regular appointment is made, and this cannot be before the expiration of the leave of Governor Allen next September. William H. Hunt was born in New Orleans, La., November 5, 1857, and is the fourth son of the late William Henry Hunt, of Louisiana, who was secretary of the navy in the cabinets of Presidents Garfield and Arthur, and minister to Russia. When he was twenty-seven years of age he was elected attorney general of the territory of Montana. When Governor Allen went to Porto Rico he was requested by President McKinley to become secretary of the island and to assist Governor Allen in organizing the new civil government. Attorney General Knox is preparing the proclamation which will announce the establishment of free trade between the United States and Porto Rico. Two proclamations will be issued, the first declaring the establishment of civil government in Porto Rico and the second the establishment of free trade between the United States and the island. BLIND TIGERS VICTORIOUS. Charleston's Mayor Orders City Police to Pass the Illicit Whisky Sellers By. A sensational move has been made in the dispensary situation at Charleston, S. C., and practically all restraint of blind tigers has been withdrawn. When the state authorities withheld the dispensary profits from the city Mayor Smyth issued orders to the police department by which the reeling squad was notified to let the tigers alone. This leaves the unlawful sale of liquor free from interference. Under the present arrangement the whisky element is master of the situation and the blind tiger business will thrive without fear of being troubled or sent to court. It is true that a number of liquor constables employed by the state will make occasional raids, but without the aid and co-operation of the city police department these state officers will not be able to accomplish anything. This puts a new phase on the situation there. The action taken by the municipal authorities will scarcely occasion any great surprise. In view of the action of the state board of directors there was little else left for them to do. Time alone will show how much better, if any, the state constables succeed in enforcing the law than the local police have done. CLIMAX IS REACHED. Suffrage Article Taken Up In Alabama Constitutional Convention. The Alabama constitutional convention took up the suffrage article Tuesday in the presence of crowded galleries. The meeting was spent in clearing off reconsiderations and hearing a suffrage ordinance introduced by Mr. Lowe and making special rules for the suffrage discussion. Mr. Lowe's ordinance provides, as the only suffrage qualification, a poll tax of $3 for persons under forty-five and $1.50 for those of that age and over. It was decided that after the article had been discussed section by section, substitutes to the whole article will be in order. Mr. Lowe will then offer his ordinance as a substitute. The debate was opened by a general argument on the whole article by the chairman of the committee, Judge Coleman, who described it as the best the committee could do with the federal constitution on one side and the pledges of the democratic platform on the other. The committee had felt bound by that platform and therefore bound to disfranchise no white man. The committee was perfectly willing to submit to the judgment of the convention, and if improvement could be made, to accept it. His allusion to the grandfather clause was roundly applauded. Reportera Ordered From Courtroom. A sensation was caused in the Forsburgh murder trial at Pittsfield, Mass. Tuesday by the expulsion of New York reporters from the court. The judge claimed their reports of the proceedings were improper. Subscription: $1.25 per annum; 750 for Six Months, 500 for Three Months; Single Copies 60. In Advance ANOTHER HOT WAVE Practically the Entire Country Sweltered In Sunday's Heat. Prayers Ascend In Kansas and Missouri Churches—Farmers Plowing Up Cern and Sowing Saturday was an exceedingly hot day in Kansas. The mercury ranged from 106 to 109. Farmers are beginning to plow the early ruined corn fields and sow them in wheat and alfalfa to make pasture fields for the stock in the fall and winter, but the Kansas river, running through Topeka, is so dry that green grass is growing in the center of the river bed. Most of the streams of the state, except the larger ones, have gone dry, and there is a poor prospect for stock water. The weather bureau at Washington issued the following bulletin Sunday night: "Practically the entire country was covered by hot wave today, except the immediate Pacific coast and in the states of Iowa, Missouri and Illinois nearly all previous records were exceeded. The maximum temperatural line of 100 degrees encircles the entire great corn belt. At Davenport and Bubuque, Iowa, and at Springfield, Ill., the maximum temperature of 106 degrees were 2 degrees above the highest previous record, while at St. Louis the maximum of 106 has been equaled but once before, on August 12, 1881. At Chicago the maximum of 102 degrees equals the previous high record of July 10th of the present year. In the states of Iowa, Missouri and Kansas the duration of the present heated term is without precedent, there having been practically no interruption to temperature of 90 or over since June 18th, a period of thirty-four days. On eighteen days of this period the maximum temperature at Kansas City was 100 or more. "There are as yet no indications of any relief from the abnormal heat. No rain has fallen in the corn belt for the past three days, and none is in sight. It is, of course, probable that scattered local thunderstorms, which are always accompaniments of protracted periods of heat, may fall at times, but no hope can be entertained at this time of any general rains or permanent relief." Hottest at Omaha Since 1994. With the exception of July 26, 1894, on which day the temperature reached 105 degrees, Sunday has been the hottest day Omaha, Neb., has experienced in twenty-seven years. The maximum was 104 8-10. There was not a trace of rain anywhere in the vicinity and what little wind there was came from the south and instead of being a relief added to the discomfort. The heat at Kansas City broke all records, the temperature at 4 p. m. being 104. Thermometers on the street at 11 o'clock Sunday night recorded 93. In Kansas City, Kans, three deaths from heat were reported during the day. Prayers for rain were offered in nearly all the churches in Kansas City and generally throughout Kansas. Goes to 103 at St. Louis. On the day (Sunday) that Governor Dockery designated for fasting and praying to God that the present drought might be broken in Missouri, all records for hot weather in St. Louis were broken, the weather bureau thermometer on the custom house registering 103 degrees. On the streets and in exposed places the mercury went many degrees higher. The record broken was that of 106, made in the early eighties. This was the second proclamation of the character ever made in the history of Missouri. In 1875, a time of drought and grasshopper pest, Governor Charles H. Hardin called upon the people of the state to pray for relief. This call was also generally observed. Chicago Records 103. All heat records since the establishment of the weather bureau in Chicago thirty years ago, were broken, the government thermometer registering 103 degrees. Down on the street it was from 3 to 5 degrees hotter, and, to add to the suffering, a hot, sniffing wind like a blast from a furnace, blew all day from the southwest. From 5 o'clock in the morning, when the thermometer registered 77, a gradual rise followed until at 4:30 Sunday afternoon the top notch had been reached. Prostrations were numerous and police ambulances were kept busy taking care of persons who were overcome on the streets. 106 at Decatur Ill. At Decatur, Ill, it was the hottest day ever known. The government thermometer registered 106. --- NO.42. APOLOGY IS MADE TO ITALY. United States Sends Note of Regret For Lynching of the Italians in Mississippi. A Washington special says: The acting secretary of state Monday sent a communication to Mr. Carlignani, the charge of the Italian embassy, expressing the regret of this government at the lynching of two Italians recently in Mississippi, and informing him that efforts were being made to bring the perpetrators to justice. Attention was directed to the fact that it had not been established officially that the men lynched were Italian subjects. The same information as that contained in the note to the Italian charge was forwarded to Mr. Iddings, the charge of the United States embassy at Rome, with instructions to lay it before the Italian foreign office. Governor Longino, of Mississippi, has advised the Italian consul at Vicksburg of the steps he has taken to apprehend the guilty persons. The letter details the active steps the government has taken to apprehend the guilty of the outrage. The governor, who has been to the scene of the affair, is apprehensive of considerable difficulty in locating the guilty parties, as he states that the crime was committed at midnight by masked men, who departed quickly and quietly, leaving no trace of their movements. Governor Longino left Jackson, Miss. Monday night for Greenville, where he will consult with the ornamental judge touching the assassination of the Italians at Erwin, and a special term of court will doubtless be speedily called. E. Calvalli, the Italian consul at New Orleans, is said now to be at Erwin, making in investigation. SOUTHRN PROGRESS. The New Industries Reported In the South During the Past Week. PACKING PLANT BURNED. With It Seven Million Pounds of Meat, Was Lest, Domesticated. Was Lost—Damage is $600,000. The packing plant of Jacob Dodd Sons, at Wichita, Kas., was totally destroyed by fire Tuesday. There were four large buildings. It is estimated that 7,000,000 pounds of meat in process of preparation were destroyed. The loss is $650,000, with insurance, about $400,000. One wall fell injuring four men, but not fatally. Three hundred and fifty men are thrown out of work, and are originated in the last house, supposedly from spontaneous combustion. PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY, BY THE TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO 116 W.

The twenty-second annual meeting of the National Afro-American Press Association will be held in Bethel A. M. E. Church, Philadelphia, Pa., Tuesday, August 6th. The meeting will be on the ground where the first Negro church in America was erected, and where the bones of the great founder now rest in a tomb but recently made for him. IN Atlanta two colored women were arrested for quarreling about one of the recently returned soldiers from the Philippines. The women were fined and the recorder gave orders for the arrest of the soldier. In this case the soldier broke no law, but because he is a soldier and is honorably wearing the uniform of his country this recorder wants to dishonor him. This is the way the Atlanta authorities act: If a Negro is accused of any incivilities toward a white woman, upon the least complaint he is quickly apprehended, and severely punished. On Monday a young white man was accused of assaulting and abusing two colored women. The women resented it, and the policemen arrested them for doing so. This is Justice with a vengeance. The Rev. Richard Carroll made an address at the recent corner stone laying of the building for the Negro exhibits at Charleston, that can not be commended, if the report is correct, by any manlv Negro. The reverend's intention may be pure, but his speech has no elevating air whatever about it. Many of our leading speakers too often make the mistake of belittling the race and begging for that which rightly is theirs. THERE is one useful lesson our people must learn. They should keep out of trouble, but in event they are arrested under any charge they must not resist arrest. It only makes it worse for them. In many instances they are treated in such a brutal manner that they are constrained to act that way, but they should endeavor to curb this feeling and submit peacefully to arrest. Matters not how false the charge may be against them, resisting arrest will only make an additional charge, and if they are found not guilty of the first charge, they will have to suffer for the latter. Brevitles. Mrs. M. J. Pinckney gave us a call yesterday. The friends of Mrs F. H. Thompson will be sorry to know of her illness. Miss Elvira Lloyd left on Saturday last for Woodstock, Conn., where she will make her future home. Her many friends wish for her a pleasant home. Mrs. Selina G. Flournoy is whiling away the warm months at Atlantic City, N. J. When it becomes cooler she will visit New York. She informs us that her health is much improved. The Savannah Light Infantry under command of Capt. H. N. Walton will carry an excursion to Augusta, leaving from the Plant System depot via the Southern Railway at 7 o'clock on Monday morning. While in Augusta the company will be the great of the Maceo Guards. It is expected that a large crowd will go. Miss Etta Williams died on Monday morning last, after an illness of only two or three days. At first her condition was not thought to be serious, but she continued to grow worse until the end came. She war about 15 years of age and had a host of young frienns, who were greatly shocked to learn her unexpected death. Her mother, Mrs. Williams, was in New York, and the funeral was delayed until her return on Wednesday. She was buried from Beth-Eden Baptist Church, of which she was a member. She was also a member of Juvenile Society No.113. The biggest crowd in the city in recent years was brought here last August to witness the anniversary celebration of the First Battalion Infantry, Georgia State troops, colored. The celebration will be had again this year, and arrangements have been made to have an equally large number of persons here. The excursions will arrive on the night of the 13th. On the morning of the 14th the battalion will parade and afterwards will go out to Lincoln Park, where the time will be pleasantly spent. Lieut. J. H. Bugg, M. D., is chairman of the committee, having in charge the celebration and he will see that every thing will be done for the pleasure of everybody. M. The subject of this sketch, Mr. John W. Armstrong is one of our most public spirited, energetic and affable young men. He is to the "manor born" a Savannahian, having first found life here on October, 4th., 1871. Unlike many other boys, Mr. Armstrong had to struggle hard for "his." He attended the public school and made well of his limited opportunity, and at an early age he had to assist in caring for his mother and younger brothers. Mr. Armstrong's devotion to them can be attested by his friends, and especially was this demonstrated in the late illness and death of his mother. On that occasion he left nothing undone that would add to her comfort. and perfect depends la foundation single to its ments or no to run risk increasing his kind of head bacharach do it all no it seems are squabble questions to he the emotionize the pact, that's him in man now what a Maternal w girl, and questions to ved application. Wh Talk is alr like theory Mr. Armstrong is a tonsorial artist of no mean ability. He has been employed at the Pulaski house shop for a number of years, and his patrons are among the leading men of the city, who have more than the slightest appreciation of his valuable abilities. Being of a courteous disposition, with manly bearings, he impresses all with whom he comes in contact. He is a true lover of his race. He has practical thoughts on the conditions of affairs and expresses them in a loyal manner. Mr Armstrong can always be found encouraging the young men to become good citizens by paying their poll tax and be in a position to carry out the functions granted by the federal constitution. He stands squarely in favor of race enterprises and does not show it by his words but by his actions. He is now working energetically to extend the Metropolitan Mercantile and Reality Company of New Jersey, a race corporation, that promises the establishment of a paying business here, upon certain conditions. Mr. Armstrong takes great pride in the fact that at every election he is able to carry out that constitutional function given to every citizen, but which so few young men avail themselves of. He never held public office but acted as tally sheet keeper at Harrison's first election. He has a number of loyal friends, and he is liked by them all. Business Co-operation. With a full sense of respect, for those dignitaries and things of which I am about to speak, believing in their different doctrine to the extent they relate themselves to the betterment of the whole human family, I am led by recent events evident to all, to think that the preachers for the most part believe in the church; the lawyer, in the respect he has for the law; the teacher in the school house; the merchant in the store. The dancing master advances an opinion that his has the salutatory effect in producing a beneficial connection unassailable and down to the united others swarm to the church with the easy question will solve it self. Mine is eleemosynary and pecuniary, in the hope that the surplus that largely concourse the unemployed will be elevated to a higher standard that will inevitably confront and be expected of them in the mediate if not immediate future, I advance this much, forbidding the acceptance of any intentions, and demanding to a degree a feeling for those whom the finger of reproach can be pointed as well as those irreproachable. None of us are any better than the dictates of our conscience and the Negro who climbs up, and a ter reaching the top of the ladder look down on those at the bottom with disparagement is unchristian like and has out, lived his usefulness, so far as possible. Sonny is not reinforced from the top and no race or nation ever amounted to much unless it looked out for its plebian people, especially is this necessary for the Negro, since he is by the white man judged from a general view point. Many of us plume ourselves that we know something, but contend that a still tongue makes a wise head, there resus the case, and we must fortune, being blessed with a common school learning, moral and ordinary business training. This theory to many probably seems confutable, but whenever those enumerated above solve the problem, it solve itself or you solve it be sure the results will not be the same. What the Negro ought to do, he generally does not do, that is to subscribe, every one of them, to the cooperative concerns doing business near them before some body else does. Several of them recently paid dividends ranging from $100 to $1000 in capital stock, the banks don't pay but three. Co-operation rightly understood means mutual association—to act together. It, like every thing else has its phases of which some attention should and in all probability is directed, however I wish to call attention to these, if for business purposes Biochel积 confidence must be established and perpetuated. The hope of its success depends largely upon the substantial foundation that promotes it, that is an eye single to its aim, to secure fruitful investments or none. We are not in a position to run risks and are running none. The increasing demand for the furtherance of this kind of business is growing. This done strong backing-are unnecessary. One man can 't do it all, not even a dozen. It seems to me that while other people are squabbling over huge international questions the Negro could at least begin to how the entring wedge that would revolutionize the political and economical compact, that's waged so relentless-sly against him in many quarters. Most of us know now what is to be done for our salvation. Material welfare is what we need. How to get it done? How to make some jobs that require study and unreserved application. The motto should be action. What all of us need is more action. Talk is alright, but talk without action is like theory without practice. There is an old saying and a true one that "action speaks louder than words". There is nothing to fear from dishonesty; we should not apprehend collusion and coercion, especially when odds specifically demand in these advanced times of accumulated wealth, that a man be honest in his dealing or pay the penalty by forfeiture of redemption bond, required to all officials of trust. We used to say he is alright, he may have been alright, but he is not alright, in the positions of trust without, taking any disrespect to themselves knows that they are expected to place some thing redeable in the hands of stock holders as a security of their trust worthiness. This is merely business. The contest since the first century has been power and pelf, both are contagious, either can procure the other. Being under the protecting eyes of our old friends what we have to ward against more than anything else, now that the conditions are so fiercely competitive (in the grand rush for first place that is on, is not intentionally tread on the heads as less than the dandelion Lifting as less than the climber is the cry of struggling races. Obviously there is no occasion for being discouraged, especially that there is ample room for improvement and wherever there is room for improvement, it should be the dignified and the plain duty of every one to see that these things are attended to in some of the actions with certain ability the improvement will come. Are you going to replete the coffers of the South at the expense of your sweat and blood?—John W. Armstrong. Orderly Business Place. Orderly Business Place. For the past eight years Mr. Thomas Golden has been conducting a flourishing business on the South East corner of Bay and Lumber streets. During this long number of years, it is remarkable that he has had no trouble in his place whatever. This is a record that but few place of this kind can boast of. Mr. Golden is a thorough business man and acts in a manner to command and he does receive the respect of every one who visits his place, and every one of his patrons are loyal to him, because he is always looking out for their best interest. In this way Mr. Golden has done more for these people than any one else in the city. Many a poor one has he taken out of jail and several from the chain gang. No one in trouble has ever appealed to him in vain. He is well liked by all of his friends. The Berean Baptist Association is holding its annual meeting at Darien, beginning on Thursday. Among those in attendance are Revs. J. J. Durham, D. D., Alex Harris, Rev. W. L. P. Weston, Rev. G. W. Griffin Rev. R. H. Thomas, Deacons W. R. Fields, W. A. Houston and others. He is Not For a Primary. The friends of Mr.Frank Keilbach, the candidate for Ordinary, do hereby announce that Mr. Keilbach has never declared himself for primary in the coming election for Ordinary. The Savannah Light Pleasure Club, Mr.Jas.A. Miller, president, spent two days in Macon last week, the guests of the Young Men Pleasure Club of Macon.

"Thou art gone to the grave, its cold portals closed o'er thee. While hopes brilliant star o'er thy pathway did shine. While loves fairest flowers shed their fragrance around thee. And youth's brightest treasures, my daughter were thine. Thou art gone to the grave, its dark gloom is upon thee. And hushed is thy voice, full of kindness and love. Yet still in my happiest dreams I behold thee. All radiant with beauty and brightness above. Thou art gone to the grave, yet ab, why should I mourn thee. Sweet flower cut down in thy freshness and bloom. Perhaps hadst thou lingered, misfortune had claimed thee. Or sorrow thrown o'er thee its wilthering gloom. Thou art gone to the grave, and I would not recall thee. For all that the world gives of rapture or joy. Well I know that the kind arms of Jesus enfold thee.

Arm- strong a temporary organization was formed with J. C, Simmons as chair. man and E> W. Sherman, secretary. On motion of Mr. R. Barnes, a committee of ten was uppointed whose business and effort is to be directed to awakening further inter- est in the reformatory. The same was adopted, and naming of the com- mittee was left to the discretion of the caairman. After which, in a more elaborate address, Capt. Simmons further de- tailed his plans for organization and operation. He showed that the idea ‘was no new one, but that several fu- tile attempts along similar lines had heen inaugurated and had failed. Ile stated, that with right begin- ning, a righteous cause could not iail,and he expected to walk the halls of a reformatory in the near future, located near this city, which would stand a monument to the charity of the people of this vicinity and @ boon to numerous waifs whose salvation would be assured on ac- count of its establishment. The speech was well received and signal- ly applauded. Music was conducted by Mr W. H.

Man Who Buy Uncalled-for Parcels as Chinese Laundries. "Speaking of laundries and Chinamen," remarked one of the hearers of the story of the laundry marks, "do you know that a number of men here in New Orleans make a good living by buying up the unclaimed packages of laundries? In New Orleans there are 205 Chinese laundries, and in each of them many packages of laundry are never called for. The Chinese proprietor keeps these packages thirty days and if the owners do not claim them in that time they are sold for the laundry charges to anyone who cares to purchase. Look into a Chinese laundry and you will see several upper shelves crowded with dusty-looking packages. These are uncalled-for packages, and the Chinaman is keeping them should the owners call for their linen, but the chances are that when the parcels are put upon these upper shelves they will not be called for. The men who have their laundry done by Chinese washermen are not infrequently birds of passage, who, from one cause or another, lose their laundry. The cause may be carelessness, forgetfulness, leaving town or going broke. "You will be surprised at the amount of clothing lost in this way by owners and accumulated in the laundries. When a week goes by and the owner does not call with his wash ticket the laundry keeper no longer expects him, for the Chinese laundry patron is generally a prompt customer with a small wardrobe. Then, after a week, the bundle goes up on the shelf, and it remains there until the purchaser comes along. He is sometimes a man in reduced circumstances and needy, who wants to outfit himself with another man's clothes at a trifling cost, but generally he is a speculator. The Chinaman is glad to let the clothes go for the amount of the wash dues against them, and the speculator strikes any number of bargains, for generally linen worth a Chinaman's work is worth a few cents asked for the charges against it. These speculators go around from laundry to laundry, and wagonloads of goods are bought up by him for almost nothing. It is pretty much of a lottery, for the wily Chinaman will not permit the speculator to examine the contents of the bundles before buying. He is like a man buying a pig in a poke, and the only guide he has is what the Chinaman tells him is in the bundle. Men's garments bought by speculators are sold to second-hand stores, sailors and negroes. Women's clothes are not often left uncalled-for and very seldom are any of them left on the upper shelves of laundries. A bundle of laundry on which the dealer in them pays fifty cents for the washing will net him generally three times his outlay when he has peddled the contents of the package. At least a dozen men in New Orleans are getting rich buying up unclaimed laundry bundles.—New Orleans Times-Democrat. About a.Watch. A ton of gold is worth £125,583. A ton of steel made up into hairsprings is worth £1,576,458—more than twelve times the value of pure gold. Hairspring wire weighs one-twentieth of a grain to the inch. One-mile of wire weighs less than half a pound. The balance gives five vibrations to every second, 300 every minute, 18,000 every hour, 423,000 every day, and 157,680,000 every year. At each vibration it rotates about one and one-quarter times, which makes 197,100,000 revolutions every year. In order that we may better understand the stupendous amount of labor performed by these tiny works, take, for illustration, a locomotive with six driving-wheels. Let its wheels be run until they shall have given the same number of revolutions that a watch gives in one year and they will have covered a distance equal to twenty-eight complete circuits of the earth. All this a watch does without other attention than winding once every twenty-four hours.—Til-Bits. WEATHER PERMITTING.

ASSUMES ALL RESPONSIBILITY Secretary Long Is Tired of the Whole Controversy—Lieutenant Wain-Wright Answers an Referring to Maclay's naval history, which has been criticised on account of statements considered objectionable, Rear Admiral Sampson, in an interview at Boston, Mass., Monday, said: "In one way, possibly, I was responsible for the statements made in the history. I was commander in chief of the squadron, and was responsible so far as reading the proofs goes. If the historian has taken facts from my official reports to the navy department, that is all well and good. I stand by first reports and official communications. "I would welcome an investigation of this whole matter by congress or by the navy department," he said, "but I see no hope of its being taken up. "Schley's first statement regarding the battle of Santiago," continued the admiral, "was moderately correct. The interviews given out some time afterwards were not at all correct. They were entirely different from his first accounts and were written in a different spirit, I think. An interview purporting to have come from Admiral Schley published, I believe, on January 6th, was entirely incorrect. Soon after this statement appeared in print he came aboard my ship and told me that he had been incorrectly quoted. The reporter to whom the interview was granted was a friend of mine, and he afterwards told me that he had published Schley's words precisely as they had been spoken." Wainwright Answers Inquiry. Commander Wainwright, commandant of the United States naval academy, under the date of July 20th, has made the following reply to the navy department's inquiry concerning the use of Maclay's history: "Having seen so much in the papers in regard to the third volume of Maclay's naval history, and having received also an official letter from you on the subject, I think it right to put you in possession of a full knowledge of the case as existing at the naval academy. "There has been no proposition to adopt this third volume as a textbook or reference book, either from the head of the department of English, the academic board, or any person within my knowledge. There is no intention here of requiring the cadets to study the history of such recent events as the Spanish-American war, and their time is too limited to require them to study a full volume on any one war.' "Maclay's naval history was adopted with the consent of the department in 1899, when the English course here was extended far beyond its former limits. Long Is Tired of Discussion. Secretary Long Monday afternoon indicated to the newspaper men who called upon him that he did not desire te discuss further the revival of the Sampson-Schley controversy. He said, however, that he had received a letter from Mr. Maclay in which the author of the naval history of the United States agreed to his (the secretary's) statement that only the third chapter of his book (that relating to mobilization) had been placed in the secretary's hands before the publication of his work. Admiral Schley Is Silent. Admiral Schley was seen Monday night at the Great Neck, L. I., where he is at present stopping. He declared he would have nothing to say at the present time, no matter what was said by others indorsing Maclay's history. He added that later, when others had said all they wanted to he might issue a statement, but that this was uncertain. SWUNG TO TELEPHONE POLE. Citizens of Cleveland, Miss., Witness Grewsome Work of Lynchers. Jesse Phillips, the negro who shot and killed Lucius Reed, a plantation manager in Cleveland, Miss., a week ago, was captured in the swamps near that city at 10 o'clock Saturday night and lynched by a crowd of unknown men. About a mile from the town a mob intercepted the captors and, taking the negro from them, hurried him to the spot where Reed was killed and hanged him to a telephone pole. So quietly was the negro hanged that the majority of the citizens did not know when the lynching occurred. NEGROES RESENT LYNCHING.
