Ten tailors are also under arrest, charged jrlth being Implicated, and they are ilso under arrest awaiting courtmar- .Ul. Has Throat Cut. The mutiny was the result of a Srunken brawl. Privates Burnett and Kensey. of the marine corps, were the ring leaders, and they ure now under the doctor's care, the former with his throat cut and the latter with a frac tured arm. A score of marines and blue jackets, jnder the leadership of Burnett and Kensey, attempted to break camp.

Chief Boatswain Garrett, who, with a force of marines and sailors, had been summoned from the Lancaster by the alarm which had been sounded, narrowly escaped death. Burnett had a loaded rifle pointed at Garrett's head when he was struck down by a bayo net. The disturbance was quelled and the mutineers placed under arrest. Burnett and Kensey were given _ general courtmartlal yesterday and will be given long terms of imprisonment in the naval prison at Boston.

ANOTHER NE W POSTOFFICE WILL BE NEEDED IN CITY WITHIN FIVE OR SIX YEARS Architect Taylor, of the treasury de partment, had almost concluded his task of getting the Ideas of the various department of the govefnment service In reference to their quarters in the new building Wednesday morning, and when seen by a representative of The Georgian was getting ready to leave Atlanta. "How do you like Atlanta. Mr. Tay lor?’’ was the query with which he was greeted. "Oh, Atlanta’*, all right,” was the quAck response. "The policy of the government as outlined by the last congress will be to build one-story postoffiees In nil of the large cities In the country in the future. This will be more In the nature of an Immense distributing center and the city will be divided into districts. In the center of which will be a sub station from which the carriers will take out their routes. The building In Atlanta is probably the last that will be constructed on an elaborate scale, and is soon ns the postal receipts Jus tify It the new building will be aban doned, to the other departments and building near the Terminal station win ne erected. Of course It Is Impossible to state when this will be. but at the rate Atlanta's postal busi ness Is growing I Judge that we shall have to provide additional quarters within the next five or six years. "It is the plan at present to use the wng«m s> si ••in of distributing the malls, but If the pneumatic tube system proves feasible that will be adopted.'' The only change of any consequence will be that quarters will be provided oil the fourth floor of the civil .service commission to hold its examinations. Room will be provided for 200 desks, so that all applicants can be accommo dated without trouble. Postmaster Blodgett, Collector Ruck er and the other officials are highly pleased with the plans for the new building, and the only regret is that they will have to wait two or three years to get Into them. "Mr. Taylor has promised us the new quarters as a Christmas present," said Collector Rucker, "but unfortu nately he didn’t specify wlmt Christ mas it will be, and so we have made up our minds to'wait some time for thorn.” CA N' TDEPOR TS YRIAN LEPER; WESI VIRGINIA GETS HIM By Private I.cnsod Wire.

Whitley, of Douglas. anil SolicitorOen- •'•'I ‘•linrbs I» Hill, of th** Fulton county court, threw the house of rep resentatives into disorder We&nesday morning. The altercation followed an attack made by Mr. Whitley Tuesday morning on the men who were alleged to he lobbying for the Mattingly bond bill. Mr. Whitley had accused one of the men behind the measure, presumably Mr. Hill, of using perjured testimony In court cases. There Is said to have been personal feeling between the two for several years. Air. Hill accused Mr. Whitley* of being ngnlnst the bill because he had received no money to vote in favof of it. At 9:45 o’clock Mr. Whitley entered the house anil walked toward his seat. As he Maxed Mr. Hill In the aisle be- I tin* Ntai.s hr greeted him In a pleasant way.

Tho fight was the direct result of the < hnrgi'tf made by Mr. Whitley upon the floor of the house Tuesday In explain ing Ills vote against the Mattingly fid appropriation. The remarks at- icteil but little attention at the time, hut they evidently rankled In the mind of Mr. Hill, who was one of the work ers for the bill and the subject of the remarks. In his speech Tuesday Mr. Whitley said: "I am ngnlnst this measure tm count of the character of the men be- 1 It." He nlso made some remark to the effect that one of the men had accepted i*erjure4| evidence In a law suit. Hie remarks brought Mr. Wright, of Richmond, the leader for the bill in the house, to his f**<*t, hut Mr. Whitley plained that he did not refer to any member of the house. * Mr. Hill’s Statement. Mr. H1II made the statement to The Georgian that he had gone up to the pltol as he has frequently done, with purpose »>r thought of having any difficulty with Dr. Whitley. Whilq standing In the rear of the house Dr. Whitley passed him and eiw>ke, saying Good morning, Mr. Hill." "In view of the offensive language hlch I'r.
