WILL SOLDIERS
VOLUN LEER NOW?
Many Think That the Presi
dent’s Cali Was Not Vig
orous Enough.
HE NEEDS BACKBONE.
Soldiers Do Not Want to Volunteer
to Join the Regular Stand
ing Army.
In the opinion of the military men of
Macon it is hardly pro liable that Georgia
will furnish her quota of the troops called
on by tne president. In speaking ot the
matter to a News reporter this morning
a prominent military man said:
"1 have talked to a large number of the
military boys ot Macon, and 1 have not
found a one that is willing to go under the
call that, has been issued. They know
wnat the call means. It is for volunteers
to enlist in the United States regular
army, and there are none ot them that are
willing to do this, though they would go
willingly as state troops. It is my belief
that McKinley likes vigor in this matter,
and that the proper order for him to issue
was to order out the organized militia of
the different states.
“I have no idea that Georgia will volun
teer a thousand men to enlist in the
United States army. They would rather
enlist in time of peace than in time of
war, and there is hardly a probability that
a member of a Georgia volunteer troop
will leave it and join the regular army of
the United States.”
Interviews with, many members of the
local militia shows that none of them are
anxious to enlist under the call that has
been made and if there were an urgent
necessity for troops at once the war de
partment would find themselves fearfully
in want.
Under the call that has been made no
one is obliged to go, and the sentiment up
holding the action of this governmen't in
interfering in the affairs of another gov
ernment is not strong enough to prompt
the men to enlist and go and help flgh't
for Cubans. Had the United States J;ov
ernment made the destruction of the
Maine the issue for the war, they could
not have accommodated all the soldiers
that would want to volunteer and avenge
the death of the dead marines, and the
insulted Hag.
It is expected that Colonel Wiley will
report to the governor today, that it will
■a hard matter to get any of the Second
regiment to enlist, and the sentiment of
the soldier will be communicated to the
proper authorities.
The women of the state are proving
powerful factors in pursuading the men
that there is no cause for them to enlist
now, and go to the front on the first call
to fight for a cause in which this nation
has so little interest. The reports on the
results of the president’s call does not
tend to show that the men all over the
union are wild to volunteer and so far
there have been no offers to go into the
service.
The lukewarm methods of McKinley,
wiio has been forced into every step that
he has taken has not stirred up the pa
triotism of the Americans, and especially
that of the people of the South.
CHANGE OF SCHEDULE.

W. W. HARDWICK, 'Soliciting Agent.
DR. TICHENOR
Delivered an Interesting Talk at First Bap
list Church.
A large crowd assembled at 'the First
Baptist church yesterday afternoon to
hear the lecture by Rev. Dr. I. T. Tich
enor of Atlanta on Cuba. Dr. Tichenor is
familiar with the state of affairs in the
island and his address was a most inter
esting one.
He spoke of the treachery and cruelty of
the Spaniards and cited many instances
where they had displayed their cruelty
right under the nose of the United States.
"Spain has overtaxed Cuba and treated
her citizens in a most intolerable manner.
The island has 48,000 square miles and one
and a half million population. It has to
pay $25, 000,000 a year .to Spain. Thus she
is burdened to death. The ten years’ war
was ended through Spain’s agreement to
give Cuba autonomy, etc. 'But as soon as
the insurgents had been brought back into
the fold things rocked along as before, and
Spain totally disregarded the jterins of the
surrender. She did not keep her promise
and Cuba was in a worse fix than she was
before she went into rebellion.
Dr. Tichenor gave an interesting review
of the religious history of Ithe island, say
ing Spain even controlled that, and every
'priest on the island was a Spaniard; Cuba
had none and no man dared express an
opinion contrary to that which the priests
entertained on religious matters. A na
tive of Spain who is doing a flourishing
business in Cuba, has said that he would
give half his large fortune if Cuba could
be annexed to the United States. He
would not dare express such a desire
whrere it could get to Ithe ears of the
Spanish authorities, but it is the way he
feels about it, because he believes that un
der the United States government he could
be worth in a few years ten times as
much as he is worth now.
Dr. Tichenora says the Cubans, as a
people bear about the same blood relation
to Spain as the people of the United States
bear to England. About one-third of the
natives are negroes; none of them are In
dians. all of the Indians having been
killed off long ago.
In an interview after the address Dr.
Tichenor said he regrets only that the
United States did not take issue with
Spain iq time to prevent the starvation of
the hundreds of thousands of women and
children on the island.
CASTOYLIA.
TRAIN ROBBERS.
Central Railway Authorities Believe They
are Being Systematically Robbed.
The Central Railroad authorities say that
they believe that a gang of robbers very
similar to the one which operated near
Dalton for a long time‘is robbing them,
and they have found evidence to sustain
the assertion.
For some time past goods have been
turning up missing, and it has been found
that goods are thrown from the freight
trains as they run into Macon. Conductor
Crutchfield found a lot of goods that had
evidently been thrown from a train Sat
urday near Anderson’s brick yard. He at
once reproted the matter and dectectives
have been put to work on Ehe case.

Notes Taken
On the Run.

Cotton avenue. The meeting will be held at
4:30 instead of 8 o'clock, as heretofore.

Reports from the peach belt are to the
effect tha’t the crop was never more prom

Asiatic Squadron Now on the
Way to Spain’s Pacific
Possessions.
.Hong Kong. April 25 —It is now known
that the destination of the United States
squadron, which left here suddenly yes
terday under sealed orders, is in the
Phillipine Islands, where the United
States fleet will form a blockade at once,
unless prevented bj- Spain’s ships. The
cities of Manila and Holo, 200 miles south,
will be blockaded first. The whereabouts
of the Spanish fleet is unknown. The re
bels are practically in control of the
Phillipine Islands outside of Manila. The
cruiser Baltimore has arrived here and is
now docked and uncoaled.
United States Consul Wildman has pre
viously notified Governor General Blake,
of British colony, that the American
squadron would leave, but would take no
warlike stores nor coal beyond what was
necessary to carry it to nearest American
port.
MAY RECONSIDER.
Interesting Action Proposed for Council
Meeting.
The paving fight will be renewed in
council tomorrow night as outlined on
Saturday. It is more than probable that
a motion to reconsider will be offered and
that it will receive the support of a suf
ficient number of the aidermen to bring
about a reconsideration of the vote of last
Tuesday which gave the contract for pav
ing Cherry street with brick to the Chat
tanooga Paving Company.
The sentiment that has been stirred up
on the subject is very considerable and
those who are working for the asphalt
and who had petitions from about seventy
seven per cent of the property owners for
this material are receiving sufficient en
couragement to make them believe that the
action of council can be changed.
IN AUGUSTA.
Mavor and Council and Party
Left on the Georgia Road
Last Night.
The city is without a mayor and coun
cil today. They are all pff hobnobbing
with the mayor and council of the city of
Augusta, and' that they are having a good
time goes w-ithout saying.
The party left on the Georgia road in a
special car offered by that road for the
accommodation of the Macofl officials and
their friends.
Twenty-five made up the party, which
was chaperoned by Clerk Bridges Smith.
Mr* Smith seems to realize that he has
no small undertaking before him and ap
peared to be unusually grave before leav
ing. Those who know him best however,
say that this was a sure sign that some
one would be the victim of a joke before
the train rolled along many miles from
Macon.
The city of Augusta has doubtless as
sumed a •warm temperature by this time.

ATHENS NEXT
The Old Foes of the Mercer
Team Will Do Battle
With Her,
A GREAT DEaToF INTEREST
Is Being Manifested in the Game —
Mercer Boys Are Confident
of Victory.
The University of Georgia Baseball
team will reateh Macon this afternoon at
7 o’clock and s'tay here until tomorrow af
dtrnoon, when they will play Mercer at
Baseball park.
It has been many years since as much
interest has been evinced in a game of
ball in Macon as is shown in this game.
When the tiw-o 'teams line up tomorrow the
grand stand and bleachers will be full
of enthusiastic admirers of both teams to
cheer 'them on to victory.
The interest in the game is not alto
gether local, as people all! over the state,
and friends of the two colleges, are anx
iously awaiting the outcome of the game.
Both teams are confident of winning. In
'the games with the University of Georgia
iMereer has always been victorious until
last year, when Athens succeeded in de
feating her. The boys rose from defeat
with the determination to show the ’Var
sity that IMercer’iS baseball spirit was not
dead and that she could muster one of
the finest teams in the south.
The Athens team has not shown up as
well this season as it had been hoped
■that it would, t is true that Georgia has
won the majorilty of the games she has
played this year, but Mercer has won all
she has played.
The Mercer team this year is considered
the strongest that she has ever had, es
pecially at the bat, where at the first of
the season it was thought she she was the
weakest. Every man on the team hits with
a will and so far the pitchers Who have
gone up against them have literally 'been
batted out of he box. The team will line
up as it did in the game with Auburn
week before last, and Mansfield will go
in the box for Mercer, as, he pitched the
game last year, when poor support lost
him the ga'me.
Scrappy Tichenor is behind the bat for
the Athens boys tbis year, and Cox, an
Atlanta boy, is 'in the box.
The sponsors 'for t'he two teams have
not yet been selected, but both teams will
‘be represented by some fair young women
of the (Central City.
The Mercer rooters are in great spirits
and they say that hey will go to the ball
park armed w'iith all instruments that have
ever been invented for making a noise.

DID NOT PLAY.
Mercer Team Went to Atlanta to Meet the
Techs.
The game of ball that was to have been
played in Atlanta Saturday afternoon be
tween Mercer and the Techs, was not
played, the Techs claiming that the ground
was to wet. The manager of the Techs
claimed that he telephoned the Mercer
boys that the ground was too wet and they
could not play. All of the Mercer boys
went out to the grounds in uniform and
claimed the game by a score of 9 to 0.
They boys, had a good time if they did
not play ball, and say that they do not re
great their trip in the least.
