EARLY MOVE 10 HAVANA QUARANTINE CONTENTION TROOPS WILL BEGIN TO GO FOB* WARD WITHIN TEN DATS. SCHEDULED TO DO GARRISON DUTY. Volunteer Hpftm.nt. In ■aatlere to Bo Batter Disciplined—Addlttoeel Orders Issued. A Washington special of Thursday says: The movement of the United States troops to Havana will begin within ten days. The exact date of their arrival will be determined by the reports of Major General Greene, who commands a division of the Seventh corps, and is now in Havana, on bnsl- ness oonneeted with garrisoning that provinoe, and of General Charles F. Humphrey and Colonel Heeker, of the quartermaster’s department These officers have authority to complete the arrangements for the reception of the troops, the quartermaster’s officers be* ing engaged in the supervision of the construction of wharves and depots to be used by the army. The occupation of Cienfuegos is also receiving attention. General Snyder will command the first brigade whioh lands in that provinoe. He will be followed soon afterwards by Major General Wilson, and the First corps. Nothing has been heard of the detachments of the Eigbth cav alry, whioh sailed for Neuvitas and Puerto Principe, but as there is no telegraph communication with that part of the island, no surprise is mani fested at the War department. The conduct of the' volunteer regi ments in Santiago province may result in a transfer of some of these troops to corps where a more rigid discipline can be enforced and yhere regiments under oommand of general officers can be used. to quell any disturbances of the immune regiments. Addltloaal Order*. A dispatch from Camp Poland, Knoxville, Tenn., states that addi tional orders, relative to the equip ment of troops there for the movement to Cuba, were received Tuesday. Chief Surgeon Major Hysell was or dered to make requisitions for a com plete medical equipment sufficient to supply the demands of the division after it reaches the foreign clime. Brigadier General W. J. McKee, who will command the Third brigade, First division, First corps, was or dered to proceed at once to Mncon, Ga., and there Establish his brigade headquarters. One regiment of his command, the Tenth colored infantry, is already in Macon. The Sixth Vir ginia, colored, also of his command, will leave at once. General Simon Snyder is preparing to surrender the command of the divis ion to Major General J. C. Bates, who is ordered to Camp Poland from Ma con. General Bates will make an in spection of the regiments, to ascertain their needs for Cuban servioe. NEWSPAPER MEN ADJOURN. Southern Paper*, •• a Rule, Are Enjoying Great Fro*perlty. The Southern Publishers’ Associa tion closed its meetings at Memphis, Tenn.,Thursday night. Those present were: G. W. OdhB, Chattanooga Times, president; F. P.

The session closed Thursday night with a complimentary banquet given by the Commercial-Appeal. TOLBERT WILL KEEP AWAY. Receive. Governor Ellerb.’l Answer and Will Take No Bisks. A Washington dispatch says: John W. Tolbert has received Governor El- lerbe's answer to his telegram asking whether the governor would afford him protection from mob violence in returning to his home at McCormick, 8. C. The governor’s reply is regarded by Tolbert as a practical admission that the governor cannot afford him pro tection, and therefore, it is said, it is not likely he will jeopardize his life by returning to his home in the pres ent state of excited feeling. Assembles In M.mphls, Tana.,With Many D.laaatas On Hand. The national quarantine convention assembled at Memphis, Tenn., Thurs day morning with 136 delegates pres ent and more arriving with eaoh in coming train. A majority of the del egates were from the southern states most affected by the visitation of yellow fever, as they were asked to send a larger representation than the other sections. There were delegate* from the north, west and east, how ever. Eminent medical men and scientists, oollege professors, presi dents and high officials of railroads, state officials, lawyers and substantial business men composed the conven tion. In this respect the meeting is prob ably the most important ever held for the consideration of the quarantine problem. The subject with whioh the convention is to deal is one of many perplexities. The question of an ef ficient quarantine to protect the states from invasions of infectious ’and con tagious diseases has oocupied the at tention of legislators and scientific men, and it oomes up as frequently as a pestilential disease appears or reap pears in this country. It is for the purpose of arriving at some solution of this problem that the Memphis con vention was called. Promptly at 10:30 o’clock Chairman J. 8. Menken, of the looal committee, called the convention to order. Mr. Menken spoke briefly, and, among other things, said: “This convention is made up of rep resentatives from the north, east, west and south—all having one objeot in view, the initiation of a broad ba sis of an effective national quarantine controlled by the’government of the United States. To formulate a plan of notion, feasible, comprehensive and effectual, whioh can be quiokly crys tallized into law, is the work to be ac complished. While quarantine is the best known means of prevention at present and the one whioh possesses more completely the confidence of the people, we all hope that science will soon disolose the true cause and dis cover a general remedy for this un welcome exotio, rob it of its terrors and inspire the public with confidence and faith. Until that time arrives, however, our hope and. trust must be in an effectual national quarantine.” Mayor J. J. Williams delivered an address of welcomo aud the conven tion proceeded to its organization. At the suggestion of the local com mittee, temporary organization was dispensed with and Goneral Luke E. Wright, of Tennessee, was unanimous ly named as permanent president of the convention and Dr. B. A. Bush,of Senatobia, Miss., was elected secre tary. 'General Wright addressed the delegates. At. the afternoon session the com mittee on credentials and basis of rep resentation submitted a verbial report through its chairman, Dr. W. H. Bailey, reeommending the adoption of the suggestion of tho local organiza tion committee in respect to a basis of representation, providing that eaoh state be given twenty votes, regard less of the size of its delegation, and further recommending that the chair man cf each state delegation be asked to furnish the credentials committee with a list of delegates from his state. ThiB report was adopted. The following telegram from the president of the United States was next read and received with enthusias tic applause: ■'Executjvb Mansion, Washington, D. C., November 10, 1898.—Mr. J. 8. Menken, Chairman Momphis Nation al Quarantine Convention, Memphis, Tenn.: “The president has received your communication inclosing a copy of the resolutions recently adopted by the Memphis merchants' exchange, in ac cordance with which a convention has been called, to meet in your city on the 17th instant. “It affoids me pleasure to nssnre you of the president’s deep interest in this and other movements looking to the prevention of the unhealthfnl and distressing condition referred to, and to convey his best wishes for a most successful result of tho deliberations of tho convention. “J. A. PORTEII, “Secretary to the President.” On motion of Mayor Collier, of At lanta, the entire rule of order as sug gested by the local organization com mittee was adopted. DALLAS, GEORGIA, FRIDAY. NOVEMBER 25, Baking Powder Malm the food more dcBdous and whotoaome sm»smm sternest IRREVOCABLE DEMANDS WILL BR AGAIN PRESENTED. CASH CONSIDERATION. $40,000,000. Ultimatum win Dsslraete a Time Within Which American Demands Are to Be Accepted. A Washington special aaya: It waa not until a late hour Friday evening thet the laat paragraphs of the long translntion of the Spanish note whieh was presented to the American peaoe commissioner* laat Wednesday were deciphered at the state department, and most of the members of the cabi net were not aware of the fnll contents of the doenment until Saturday, when they called at the white houae. It appeared that in addition to the long argument, whioh was intended to show that the word “disposition” used in relation to the Philippines meart something else, the Spanish note did inolude a proposition to sub mit the Philippine clause of the proto col to the interpretation of an arbi trator. Another cablegram followed the first long message, this time direotly from Judge Day, seeking instructions defi nitely on some points to be mede in the Afnerican answer which is yet to be presented. These instructions have been sent forward, and it may be stated witbont going into details that they are precisely in line with the polioy which the American commis sioners have been pnrsuing np to this point in the negotiations. There are several matters of real im portance, though not ranking with the Philippine question, to be treated by the commissioners, but the instruc tions to the Americans afe not to call np that at present, or until the main pending issue relative to ibe Philip pines has been settled, in order to avoid complicating the proceedings. In the event that the ootnmissioners disagree totally at their next meeting regarding the Philippines, there will be no discussion of any of these sub sidiary question, but in the other event, namely, that an agreement shall be reached on the principal of the Philippines disposition, these matters may be expected to consume at least one pf the two additional sessions of the commission. NOT SAFE FOB TOLBERTS. Marshal Melton Say* It Would Be Un wise For Them to Return Home. A Washington dispatch says: United States Marshal Melton, of South Car olina, had a conference with Postmas ter General Emory Smith Saturday regarding some poBtofflce appoint ments. The race troubles in that state were not discussed. Mr. Melton stated positively his personal belief that the Tolberts would not be safe if they re turned to their state. “I have no hesitation,” he said, “in saying that it would be very unwise for them to retnrn nntil after the ex citement baa subsided.” Other Mutter* of Interest# One of these subjects conoerns the restoration of trade relations between the United States and Spain. At the beginning of the war Spain termi nated all of her treaties with the United States, and if the two coun tries are to get along amicably even after the declaration of peace there must be working arrangements in treaty form for the protection of trade interests, the equalization of tariff charges, the regulation of extradition und such subjects as are usnally in cluded in treaties of trade and com merce and amity. bo tor the commissioners have given no consideration to these matters in their exchanges, but some at least of tbem must be regulated in any treaty that issues from tho commission. It is believed the peace negotations are nearing an end, and it is considered not improbable that by the end of the present mouth all of themaiu features of a treaty will have been formally agreed to, or the effort to reaoh an amicable settlement abandoned. Aii Ultimatum. With a view to bring matters to a speedy conclusion, our commission ers, by direction of the president, will lay before the Spaniards the final and irrevocable demands of this country, allowing a specified time in which onr conditions may be accepted. This ultimatum, it is understood, involves all that has thus far been contended for, including the surren der to the United States of the entire Philippine group, and also names the amount of cash which this govern ment will pay Spain in consideration of her expenditures on account of Pacific improvements of betterments in the island of Luzon. The amonnt of this cash payment is not known, bat there is a basis for the belief that it is approximately $40,- 000,000.
