Lee offered a resolution, which was adopted, indorsing the move ment started by the Lee camp of Rich- I mond, looking to a general organization of committees of veterans and pledging A. the United Confederate Veterans to the movement. General H. Kidd Douglass offered the following: The United Confederate Veterans, as sembled In annual convention at Rich mond, ever mindful of their dead com rades. wherever they may be, holding in grateful memory all those who do them onor, desire to express to t he city of Chi cago their most grateful acknowledge ments of the broadminded liberality of its people in the erection and consecration of the lofty monument over the 6,000 of our dead, who rest within its protection, and the boundless hospitality with which it received all the confederate soldiers who attended that dedication. Our thanks are given without st int to every army veteran, soldier and citizen of that city who partici pated in that memorable scene. May the monument they lifted up stand through * the ages as a perpetual reminder that its B dedication is the final triumphal scene of ■ the war, commemorative alike of the B heroic dead it honors and of the reunited B peace and friendship between north and ■ south. B The resolution was seconded by Gen r «ral Lee and was unanimously adopted. I *lt is estimated that there are 10,0b0 | ' veterans in the city attending the re- | union. There is little doing outside the I convention proper. The Virginia divi | sion of the Daughters of the Confeder » acy met and discussed the question of JL Coining the United Daughters organiza tion. Reporters were admitted. Up to 1 o’clock the question had not been de cided. Thursday will be the great day. The cornerstone of the Jefferson Davis mon ument will be laid and there will be a great parade of veterans and citizens. Dr. J. M. Curry made an eloquent address before the convention. While he was speaking James R. Hobart, camp k of Baltimore, came in with its band K playing “Maryland.” The Marylanders ■ were received with great cheering. B ■ The Daughters of the Confederacy Vir- ginia division voted unanimously to join the United Daughters grand divi sion only. John Burton, William A. Moore, alias Johnny O’Brien, and Ed O’Connor, L alias Shanley, said to be noted crooks, A were arrested here Wednesday. B HOBART VISITS M’KINLEY. The Vice Presidential Nominee Calls on the Major at His Canton Home. ■ Canton, 0., July 1. —Governor Mc- Kinley drove to the Fort Wayne station r' ' shortly after 10 o’clock Wednesday morning to personally meet his invited i guest, Hon. Garrett A. Hobart, who ’ wired Tuesday from his home in Pater son, N. J., that he would call on the governor Wednesday. He went, as is Sual on such occasions, in the modest mily carriage, drawn by a single horse d driven by his nephew, Samuel Saxton. There was a large crowd of people S gathered at the station to witness the ’ meeting of the two distinguished men. (('.’he affair was informal in every re nspect. Governor McKinley emerged from his carriage, while the big crowd in the station, divided, leaving an open \ ,/ space for him topass through, which he did, reaching the train just as the car f. carrying Mr. Hobart stopped in front of him. Governor McKinley quickly ex » tended his hand and stepped sprightly to the car steps, and the recognition was equally prompt on Mr. Hobart’s part. Governor McKinley took him by the arm and they walked side by side to the carriage amidst the applause of the big crowd. The meeting was only informal and no public demonstration had been de- I “ sired, the time of Mr. Hobarts arrival I not having been made public. Cleveland at Buzzard’s Bay. i Bay, Mass., July I.—The steam yacht Oneida, with her owner, E. B C. Benedict, and President Cleveland on board, arrived here after an une ventful passage from Greenwich, Conn. Fire In Birmingham. BM Birmingham, Ala., July I. Fire I started in the pattern room in the Wil- HSIm liamson Iron company’s iron works ;®?Bfr°m heat from the cupola and partially destroyed the works. The building was ||fiß''f wood and being one of the oldest in Birmingham, burned rapidly. A large full of patterns was almost totally B|rlpß’'*l r oyed and valuable machinery was badly damaged. The loss is estimated HI a * over |IO,OOO. There was insurance .carried on the plant to the amount of ■ 1*15,400. . THE ROHE TRIBUNE. GREEKS APPEAL FOR AID. The United States Asked to Send a Warship to Care For Starving Fugitives. New York, July I.—A dispatch to The Herald from Athens says: Deputy Scoulodi, a friend of the king and min ister of marine, under Tricoupis, has asked The Herald to express the wish of all Greeks that the United States gov ernment shall send a ship—say the San Francisco—to aid the starving fugitives, women and children. There are 5,000 at Gonia and 7,000 at Poibt Plata. The children are dying by the hundreds. M. Scoulodi says that the Americans are the only people who cannot be sus pected of having any ulterior motives, therefore the only people who can un dertake this great humanitarian work without exciting jealousy and disagree ment. It may be called to mind that in 1868 Admiral Farragut took off the women and children uuder similar circumstan ces, when Mr. Seward was secretary of state. When remonstrated with on the occasion by Ali Pacha, Mr. Morris, the United States minister at Constantino ple, made the noble reply: “When we Americans undertake an act of humanity we don’t ask the advice of any one.” Deputy Scoulodi says that these peo ple are dying or in immediate danger of death or massacre. “We are not asking money,” said he, “but humanitarian aid.” THE HENLEY REGATTA. Much Interest Shown In the Americans Who Are to Compete. Henley- on-the- Thames, July 1. — The near approach of the days set apart for the Royal Henley regatta. July 6,7, 8 and 9, is increasing the already very great interest manifested in the gallant young Americans who are going to up hold the glorious traditions of Yale on the Thames. From the first moment of their appearance here up to the present time they have considerably improved in form and have most deservedly won the approbation of the press and the , public. On all sides the New Haven oarsmen are classed as thorough gentlemen and 1 sportsmen of the first water. Conse- ; quently, however strong may be the de- i sire among Englishmen to see the grand challenge cup successfully defended by a home crew, nobody will begrudge the Yale boys the victory if they defeat the , crack crews of Great Britain, and their triumph is certain to be greeted as en thusiastically as if Leitnder or New col- ! lege turn out to be winners. The ut- ! most good feeling prevails on all sides, I the cup of goodfellowship is overflow- j ing, and when the rival crews measure . oars on Tuesday next, it will be honest ! rivalry with no tinge of bitterness on 1 either side. The withdrawal of the Eton school- I boys having been gracefully brought about, there will be no necessity for rowing a trial heat for the grand chal lenge cup on July 6, and the contest for that trophy will therefore occur on the day following. A change for the better in many re spects was made in the Yale boat Wednesday. The English oars have been found not adapted to the Yale crew. As a result they have been dis carded and American oars will carry the sons of old Eli to victory or defeat. There is no cock-sureness about the crew or their friends; but they will row their best; they are in the pink of con dition, and will at least come very near capturing the grand. That is about the situation of affairs from the American standpoint, •dtliough Bob Cook appears to look gloomy, shakes his head some what despondently and pretends that he is not satisfied with the work of his pu pils. Cook has been known to do the same thing many a time before, and then this crew would walk away from their oppo nents to the great dismay of the latter. In fact the throwing of cold water upon the chances of the Yale crew is in some quarters looked upon as being an old trick of the master coach; so, not much importance is attached to his cloudy forebodings. NO TRUE BILLS FOUND. The Grand Jury Failed In Its Efforts to Apprehend the Columbus Lynchers. Columbus, Ga., July I.—-The grand jury of Muscogee county has adjourned for the term, its labors having ended. The presentments returned contained, among other things, the following, con cerning the recent lynching here: We beg leave to report that we have made as thorough an investigation of the lynching which occurred on the streets of Columbus on June 1 as was in our power to do. In our efforts to apprehend the participants in the affair, we have had before us our body officers of the court and others, who were in the courtroom, from which one of the victims was taken. We have also examined the jailer, from whose custody the other victim was taken; also citizens residing in the vicinity of the jail, who witnessed the occurrences, and a number of merchants doing business in the neighborhood of the place of the ex ecutions, and who witnessed the execu tions, and none of the testimony elicited any information as to the identity of the parties taking part in the lynching. In this connection we desire to express our unqualified' condemnation of lynching. We fully realize that such practices are a menace to our society and prove detri mental to the general welfare of our com munity. Tarkish Troops Want Back Fay. New York, July I.—A dispatch’ to The Herald from Cairo says: Two Turk ish battalions in Yeddah, who have re ceived no pay since 1894, refused to leave for Crete and barricaded them selves in the mosque. It is said on high authority that the khedive intends leav ing for Europe, touching first at Corfu and Phillopolis. THE ROME TRIBUNE, ROME, GA.. THURSDAY, JULY 2, 1896. NOTED WOMAN DEAD Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe Passes Away at Hartford. THE END CAMS MOST PEACEFULLY I % . She Made Fame by Writing Uncle Tom s Cabin Wi,S OVER EIGHTY FIVE YEARS OLD , Members of the Family Were at Her Bed- ’ side When She Breathed Her Last—Was One of America's Greatest Women—Au thor of “Uncle Tom's Cabin** Short Sketch of Her Life. Hartford, July I. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe died at noon Wednes day. Members of the family were at. her bedside. One of the greatest women Ameriflp ever produced has finished her life work, fl EARLY PORTRAIT OF MRS. STOWE. and the intellect that wrought out the I glowing lines of “Uncle Tom’s Cabin” I has passed under the cloud. Harriet ' Elizabeth Beecher Stowe, the woman, ! was subject to the ills incident to mor tality, but the genius that revolution- 1 ized the feelings of a nation -was for all ! time. The Beecher family stands in many re [ spects without a rival in history. There • ; were 13 of Dr. Lyman Beecher’s chil ' dren, of whom 11 lived to a good age ' and at least six attained to considerable . eminence, while one son is known . wherever our language is read, and a ,' ' daughter has produced a work that is I read in every printed language ai-'-l is I ■ probably familiar so more people than ' any other one work, except the Bible. Over Eighty-Five Years O,d. Harriet Elizabeth Beecher was born ' June 14, 1811, in Litchfield, Conn. Her ' i mother dying when she was but four ! ’ years old, Harriet lived with an aunt till her father’s second marriage, an ' event of which she and her brother, Henry Ward Beecher, always spoke with ' enthusiasm, as it secured them a de lightful home and a “second mother of ; most lovable disposition.” Both the . children gained an unusual educa- | tion very young. Harriet was for some years an assistant teacher in Catherine’s i school at Hartford, and her mind ma- i tured in an era of furious controversy. I, All the old beliefs, good and bad, were attacked at once and savagely discussed 1 ' —slavery and the divinity of Christ, I grace, free will and predestination, the i > authority of councils, the eternity of ' retribution, the imputation of Adam’s guilt to the unborn and all the compli- ; cated conundrums of supralapsarian the- i ology. He who is often in battle must | expect wounds, and to the last of her i life Harriet’s writings showed traces of the awful moral storm through which she had passed at the most sensitive age. A clear brain and sunny temper finally brought her to a more cheerful i view of human destiny, and she learned ■ to discuss the most exciting themes, not ' only without bitterness, but with a gen- ; ■ iality that often rises to humor. The Turning Point. The great event of her early life was the removal of the family in 1832 to ■ Cincinnati, where Dr. Lyman Beecher j was made president of Laue seminary, a position he held for 20 years. In no other place in the Union could she have found conditions better fitted to excite a healthful activity of the mind and cre ate cheerfulness of the spirit. | The city then contained but 40,000 people, but educational institutions sprang up on every side. The city be came a focus for medical, law and di vinity schools, to which in 1842 was added an astronomical observatory. Many who conducted these institutions or taught within them became authori ties in their different branches, and a goodly number were members of Dr. i Beecher’s church. | In such an environment, Harriet Beecher’s mental growth was rapid, and I in 1836 she secured a most fitting part ner in her life work by marrying Pro fessor Calvin Ellis Stowe, since eminent as a writer on church history and simi lar topics. They had seven children, of ' whom four survive. General Young’® Condition improved. New York, July 1 —General Pierce ’ M. B. Young, United States minister to I Honduras and Guatemala, who is a pa- | I tient in the Presbyterian hospital, is reported to be improved. Death of Mr*. J. W. Carlisle. Columbia, Mo., July I.—Mrs. J. W. Carlisle, wife of the city collector, is i dead. She was related to Hon. John ' G. Carlisle, secretary of the treasury. BLAND ON POLITICS Missouri’s Presidential Candidate on the Issues of the Day. SAYS SILVER IS OUR SALVATION He Has Just Returned From a Conference at St. Louis HE HAS NO OBJECTION TO TALKING Thinks Other Nations Would Follow the Example ot the Vatted States In Open ing; Its Mints to the White Metal—Dele gates Arriving In Chicago—Two-Thirds Kale May Be Abrogated. Lebanon, Mo., July I. Richard Parks Bland, Missouri’s candidate for president, has just returned from a con ference at St. Louis with those who are working in his interests. When seen he interposed no objection to a brief discussion of the political issues and particularly of that issue which is of his own creation. “I do not know that I can add much to my previous expression upon the sub ject of silver,” he said. “It is generally known that I urgently favor the resto ration of silver as a metal and advocate its free, unlimited and unrestricted coin age at the ratjo of 16 to 1, to be main tained in all respects at a mutual parity with gold. "I think the immediate effect of this change would be to improve the indus trial and commercial condition of the country. I thoroughly believe that the restoration of free coinage would be the salvation of this nation. If the United States were to open their mints to the free and unlimited coinage of silver I think other leading nations would promptly follow the example. “In case the other nations of the world did not follow this example and the United States had to maintain the free coinage of silver alone, I believe no. ill effect would be experienced in finan cial circles. My idea is that the expres sion of free coinage would mean the awakening of trade and the allied inter ests, and that prosperity would have uninterrupted progress. The silver idea will dominate the Democratic conven tion and the silver candidates will be very serious in next fall’s election.” DELEGATES ARRIVING. Georgia, Alabama, Dakota and Michigan Already Represented In Chicago. Chicago, July I.—The delegates from North Dakota are expected to open their headquarters at the Palmer House on Thursday, and a number of the Michi gan delegates are already upon the ground. The men were expected to make their headquarters at the Palmer House, but have concluded to shift to the Sherman House, and rooms of the delegations are expected to be opened at once. Three of the members of the Michigan delegation arrived in the city Tuesday night, but were averse to talk ing to newspaper men. Michigan is regarded as the pivotal state, as, of the 28 votes, 13 are for sound money, and there are three con tested seats. It is supposed that these contested seats will be given to the free silverites, and in that case, the vote of the state would make the requisite two thirds majority. None of the Michigan delegates, however, would submit to an interview, and they would express no opinion as to the outcome of the con tests. Two of the southern states —Alabama and Georgia—will be represented in Chicago Thursday. The Georgia dele gation, while uninstructed, is said to favor Boies for the presidential nomi nee. Should Boies fail the delegation say they will vote for Governor Mat thews of Indiana, and as a third choice, Bland of Missouri is said to be their preference. The delegation favors free silver. From Alabama will come a big dele gation headed by John B. Knox, chair man of the state central committee, and a number of adherents. The Alabama delegation, said a mem ber of it Tuesday night, who did not care to have bis name published, is first for Governor Mathews. Then it is for Bland. The delegation is uninstructed. Notwithstanding the protests of Sen ator-elect Money to the contrary, it is said the Mississippi delegates are largely for Bland. Mr. Money’s claim is that the men from his state are for Boies, but several members of the delegation declared that “Silver Dick” would be its first selection. The headquarters that the Indiana men have decided to maintain for their presidential candidate, Governor Mat i thews, have been opened. LEADERS CONFER. Governor Altgeld May Be Chonen Perma nent Chairman of the Convention. Chicago, July I.—A conference be tween Governor Altgeld, Governor Stone and several other leading Demo crats was held at the Sherman house. The meeting was for the purpose of out ' lining a plan of action to be carried out i with the national convention with re- I gard to the temporary organization of the convention. The two governors breakfasted to gether and at once left the diningroom and met with other prominent free sil ver Democrats and remained in session the greater part of the forenoon. The door to the room was closely guarded and the guard said that he bad been in structed not to permit any one. and not even to taXe a card, should any be pre- I sented. There has been some talk that Gover nor Altgeld may be chosen for perma nent chairman, but the governor’s friends declare he is not a candidate for the honor and will not accept it. TO CARRY THE CROWDS. Railroad* Centering In the Windy City Making Active Preparation*. Chicago, July I.—Railroads center ing in Chicago are making active prep arations for carrying the crowds com ing to the convention, but do not an ticipate any big rush before Sunday , night or Monday morning. The Chi cago Great Western road expects to ' bring in Monday morning four special trains, three of them being loaded down with Boies supporters. One train will come from St. Paul and Southern Min nesota. This road will have the honor of bringing to Chicago the Horace Boies club of Waterloo, la., which which will escort Governor Boies. The Polk county club, from Fremont, will also ar- I rive over the Chicago Great Western ; Monday. The St. Paul, Northern Pa- ( cific, Burlington and Wabash roads are all arranging for running their trains in i several directions. I From the east the Grand Trunk will ; bring in Sunday afternoon two special ' trains from Detroit and Saginaw, car- 1 tying the Michigan state Democracy. • The Lake Shore, Michigan Central and ; Erie roads are already beginning to j show signs of convention travel, and j some of the biggest clubs in the east ‘ will be landed here Sunday flight in i time to add to the enthusiasm. I The Santa Fe, from Kansas and the territories, expects all kinds of crowds, i They will come from all dirivrftions, but will not put in an appearsjß a earlier | than Monday morning. TEu railroad ' officials say that they are ready for the rush, and the departments of all lines are prepared to furnish all the cars nec- ; essary. THE TWO-THIRDS RULE. | An Effort May Be Made In the Chicago Convention to Secure It* Abrogation. j Chicago, July 1. —It is not yet certain i whether there will be a great disposi- I tion in the convention to follow the lead made by the Illinois delegation in favor of the abrogation of the two-thirds rule. The action Os the Illinois people in the matter has had the effect of reviving the interest in this subject. ] There is unquestionably a strong fac tion favorable to the course outlined by the Illinoisans, who contend, as did Governor Altgeld, that the role is un- , Democratic and would like to see it can- [ celled upon general principles. If it is, however, abrogoted the action will be due to the difficulty of securing the , necessary two-thirds to nominate with i the rule still in existence. It is contended by many that by the time that the nominating stage of the convention is reached the silver men will be able to command fully two-thirds of the voting strength of the convention, and they argue that if this should prove to be the case there would be no neces- j sity for changing the rules. If made at all, however, the change will have to be made before this period in the proceedings, as it is suggested that it may come at the opening of the convention, a motion to adopt the rules of the previous convention for the guid ance of the temporary organization and under it the committee on rules can have an opportunity to pass upon the subject. This is one of the questions I which the silver committee will proba bly consider, and until its verdict is ren dered, no program will be made. TRAINWRECKERS CAUGHT. ' Coon Parker and Bob Poland Derailed the Freight Near Heflin For Revenge. Heflin, Ala., July I.—Bob Poland and Coon Parker were arrested near Iron City by special agents of the South- : ern Railway company for wrecking the 1 freight train one mile west of here, Sunday morning, in w’hich two negroes were killed and three others seriously injured, derailing 12 cars and destroy ing SIOO,OOO worth of property of the Southern Railway company. Parker made a full confession, in which he says: “Poland and myself were in Heflin Saturday evening drinking and asked the freight conductor to carry us to Iron City, which he refused to do. Poland became angry and said he would have revenge before morning. We started home, walking the railroad. On reach ing the sawmill of Hunnicutt & Neal we found a car on a siding partly loaded with cordwood. Poland said he would ride home anyway. He then pushed the car on the main track. The car ran to the foot of a hill and stopped at the end of a trestle 50 feet high, where the freight train struck it. ” Many Mills Shut Down. • Youngstown, 0., July I.—Every mill in the Mahoning Valley, including Youngstown, Warren, Niles, Girard and Struthers have closed down pend ing a settlement of the rate per ton for boiling. The manufacturers offer to sign the scale at $4 per ton, while the Amalgamated association is holding out for $4.50. Eight thousand five hundred mill workers will be out of employment until a settlement is reached. The con ference committee meet again in this city on July 9. Made the riirchaao For Barnato. Newmarket, July 1. —It is stated that Marquis Beresford, who bought Coma tose at auction for 1.110 guineas ($7,402) after the horse won the maiden plate, ! made the purchase for Barney Barnato, ; the South African mining magnate. It is said that August Belmont of New York is going to bring a stable to Eng land in order to race on a larger scale. PJRICE FIVE CENTS. QUIET IN VENEZUELA Officials Availing the Boundary Coni' mission’s Report. ALL TALK OF WAR HAS CEASED The Spirit of Friendship For the U. S. is Marked I THE sentiment IN THE INTERIOR Venezuelans Are Confident TTiat Their Po titiou wftl Be Sustained—United State* Kapital Being Extensively Invested at Caracas—President Crespo Much Liked by Americans. Washington, July I. Senor An drade, Jr., son of the Venezuelan min ister, has returned from a month’s visit ; to Venezuela. He says the spirit of . friendship for this country is very marked. The American colony at Ca , racas has grown of late to large propor tions and United States capital is being ' extensively invested. Among the Ameri- ■ can residents Prespo is much liked, and the most cordial relations exist between • them. I The syndicate of capitalists from thl#’ ; country, which secured large conces sions along the Orinoco, is pushing its , work on the plants and securing ma ' chinery at the most desirable points. Mr. Donald Grant, head of the syndi ! cate, returned with Mr. Andrade after a visit of inspection. I The sentiment in the interior is shown by the determination of Governor An drade of the state of Miranda to erect a column at the state capital, on July 4, : in behalf of the Americans who aided i Venezuela in 1806. The governor is a i brother of the minister here, and his ' action is in line with that of the gen- ■ era! government, which will dedicate a I bronze column on July 4 to American ' heroes. Mr. Andrade says that President Crespo’s recent decree extending am nesty to all political refugees is expected to bring important results. It applies not only to those connected with the last uprising but to the many promi nent Venezuelans living in Paris, New I York and elsewhere. They have been among the foremost men of the country in the past and President Crespo’s effort to get them back has given much pub lic satisfaction. > The Venezuelan consuls have been in structed t» pay the expense of the re turn trip of the refugees as a means of encouraging the movement. I The officials in Caracas are calmly ' awaiting the report of the Venezuelan boundary commission at Washington, and are confident that the Venezuelan position will be sustained. All local agitation and belligerent talk has ceased pending this decision. I CONSUL O’HARA’S REPORT. I Does Not Advise Americans to Kush to Nicaragua In Search of Gold. Washington, July I.—lnstigated by many inquiries, United States Consul O’Hara, at Greytown, Nicaragua, has submitted to the department of state a most exhaustive report upon the gold deposits of Nicaragua. | He quotes copiously from local au thorities and practical mine bosses to show the extent of the deposits, the i costs of labor, the materials and of food, I and also furnishes estimates of the pro- I duction of the best properties that are ' now being worked. On the Pacific side of the country heavy operations have | been carried on for years with English capital and large mills are running steadily. On the Atlantic side 14 mills are either in operation or in the course iof construction. There are no smelting i or centralizing works in the country, nothing but free milling ores being treated. The consul makes no secret of the great difficulties and hardships that lie in the path of the American miner, and says that while he does not advise peo ple either to purchase mining stock, or to rush to Nicaragua in search of gold, he does believe that a live agent might sell considerable mining machinery and supplies. A RIOT IN OHIO. Striker* and Deputy Sheriff* Exchange Over One Hundred Shots. West View, 0., July 1. —Over 100 ■hots were exchanged by deputy sheriffs and strikers at the Berea stone quarries No one was killed, so far as is known. One striker had his leg broken in two places and many have sore heads as the result of a hand-to-hand conflict. The strikers approached the quarries through a woods with the avowed in tention of driving out the nonunion men at work. They were met by the sheriff and 40 deputies who commanded them to stop. For an answer the stri kers began firing and the fight then be came general. After a few moments the strikers were repulsed and fell back into the woods. The men in the quarries are quitting for fear and by the importunities of their wives. It is believed that the strikers will shortly make another dash for the quarries, and if such should prove to be the case serious trouble will follow. A Brltjah Steamer Sink*. Para, Brazil, July 1. —The British ' steamer Santa Renza, bound from this ■ port to Lisbon, has been sunk in collis ion with the 4-masted ship Dundonald, Captain Garvin, from San Francisco, on May 10. The Dundonald was damaged aad is leaking, but no lives were lost.
