BRUNSWICK’S MILITARY ROW.
ACTIMi ADJITAVT r.KM'K W, WAS
ASKED FOR \ DECISION.
Hr Held That the < rniml*lnncil
of the Riflemen Were En
listed Men nn*l Had a liiulit to Note
In the I’riniary—Dnnn Hade a Pro
test In AVhleh He Also Ilia reed
There Were Illegal Votes—His Po
sition Not Sustained.
Atlanta. Jan. 39,-There 1? n petty row
on in tin- military . amp in Rrunswb k and
the Acting Adjutant General was apie ti
ed to for a decision.
East week then- was n meeting of the
members of the Brunswick Riflemen call
ed for the purpose of holding a primary
citation for commissioned oflicers. There
were two e indidat-s. t'.ipi. Siy . -of ihe
Naval Militia and Capt. Frank Dunn, com
missary of Hi* regiment. The primary
was presides.! over by <’api. Dart, who has
been nominated for major. Capt. Styles
received eighteen votes, and Capt. Duan
sixteen.
Capt. Dunn is elissatisfied with the re
sult of the primary and appealed to the
Adjutant General. He puts forward sev
eral reasons why th* primary should not
be binding .upon him. One contention was
that the commissioned oflicers voted for
Capl. Styles, when ih. v were not entitled
so to do under the general instructions
sent out from the Adjutant General's of
fice. He refers particularly to section 2.
which says:
"In the election of field officers, the com
pany officers in commission Feb. 1. 19 0,
shall be the electors, and the election of
company officers, the enlisted men of the
company.”
Capt. Dunn takes the position that the
commissioned officers' commissions will
expire on Feb. 1 and therefore they had
no right to vote In the primary, ns they
Could not vote in the election. Acting Ad
jutant General Byrd ruled that the com
missioned officers wei'e enlisted men, and
as such had a right to vote.
Capt. Dunn makes a sensational charge
of illegal voting in the primary, alleging
that his defeat was brought about in that
way, and that, with these illegal votes
eliminated, he would be elected by three
votes. He charges that seventeen of the
enlisted men of the company claim that
they voted for him, while only sixteen
yotes were recorded in his favor. Ho fur
ther alleges that a number of the naval
militiamen were present at the meeting
and voted for Styles and (hat the man
agers allowed a former member of the
Riflemen, now- a resident of Atlanta, who
was on a visit to Brunswick, the night
of the primary to vote in the election, both
of these alleged illegal votes being cast
for his adversary.
Col. Byrd wired his reply to Capt. Dunn
to-day, touching only upon the right of
the commissioned officers to vote and ren
dering no decision upon the charges of
alleged improper voting at the primary.
The public has no idea of the number of
demands made upon Acting Adjutant
Byrd to render opinions on intricate ques
tions daily coming up. growing out of
the general election of military oflicers j
to take place Feb. 1. But notwithstand- !
ing the great frequency and numbers of
such I requests. Col. Byrd always for
wards'a prompt decision, relieving the
friction everywhere as much as possible.
. Hen. Cliffo and M. Walker, of Monroe, to
day inquired of the Adjutant General's
department for information as to the en
listment of anew company he is organ
izing in his town.
The followdng commissions were issued
to-day: James B. Maury, first lieutenant.
Company G, Albany Guards, infantry; i

Secretory Took Refuses to Mnke mi
Appointment in >liiniln.
Atlanta. Jan. 29.—Secretary of Btate Phil
Cook has officially declared that he Is an
anti-expansionist, and that the Philippine
Islands are no part of the United Slates.
This decision of Secretary Cook was ren
dered upon the application of Allison P
Gibbs of Manila to be appointed a com
missioner of deeds for Georgia in Manila,
Philippine Islands. Gibbs enclosed a copy
of the order passed by Assislant Adjutant
General Parry, by command of Maj. Gen.
Otis, Governor General of the Philippines,
appointing him as notary public in Ma
nila, which he thought would be a suffi
cient recommendation for his appointment.
Secretary of State Cook replied to Gibbs’
application to-day, declining to make the
•appointment. The Manilaite was informed
the Code of Georgia only gave the Secre
tary of State the power to appoint com
missioners of deeds for this state in the
states and territories of the United States,
and as the Philippine Islands were neither
a state nor territory of the United States,
he could not, therefore, under the laws of
Georgia appoint him. Col. Cook further
replied that in the dim and distant future,
when those islands should: become a part
of the United States, that he would take
pleasure in considering his application.
In discussing the matter, Col. Cook said
that in no sense could he see how the
Philippines could be regarded as a part
of the United Slates. It has become, he
says, neither a state nor a territory in the
manner prescribed by the laws of the
United States, and until that is done he
cannot make such on appointment.
Col. Cook goes further on and says that
this country acquired no title to the isl
ands in the alleged purchase from Spain,
for the reason that Spain had no valid
title in the islands to barter away. Col.
Cook also informed Gibbs that the islands
of the Philippines w**re the possession of
the Filipinos and in them the United
States had no rights whatever.

Hoy’s Mysterious Disappearance—A
Store Ilurned at Rome.
Rome. Ga., Jan 29.—W. M. Bridges,who
was convicted of appropriating $5,475 of
the school funds of Floyd county when
he was school commissioner, and sentenc
ed to five years imprisonment in the peni
tentiary, will arrive here from Texarkana
to-morrow to surrender himself to the
sheriff, after having been at liberty a
year pending an appeal of his case to the
Supreme Court. Bridges was for some time
a Baptist preacher. •
Considerable mystery surrounds the
disappearance of Homer Harrison, a 17-
year-old boy, who worked at the Rome
Cotton Factory. He, with some other
boys, was in the house of some bad wo
men on Saturday night. A hat, knife and
foot prints on the river bank led the po
lice to think that he was murdered. Three
of his companions have been arrested.
The president of the cotton factory has
offered a reward of SSO for the finding of
the boy’s body.
The store of W. J. Gordon and its con
tents in the Fourth ward, was destroyed

FERTILIZER RILL KILLED.
Rut Soittli Cnrnll n n Farmers Will
Eight tlie Trust.
Columbia, S. C., Jan. 29.—Tn the Senate
to-day the bill to require the establish
ment of a fertilizer factory in the peni
tentiary with a capacity of 100,000 tons,
the product to be sold at an advance of
5 per cent, of cost, was killed by u vote
of 20 to 10. The bill gave the directors no
discretion and did not limit the cost of
the plant. It was argued against it that
the state could not compete with every mo
nopoly that might be established and that
none of the directors knew anything about
making phosphates.
President Alexander, of the State Farm
ers’ Alliance, to-day issued a call to al
liance men all over the state to hold meet
ings at once to formulate plans for fight
ing the fertilizer trust. Meetings will
probably be held on sales day in February.
Farmers of four counties have already
held meetings and bound themselves to
pay not more than 10 per cent, advance.
To Stop Mile of a Steamboat.
Columbus, Ga., Jan. 29.—The stockhold

Savannah, recently foreclosed a mortgage.
They claimed in the Su|>erior Court to-day
that they are willing to pay all the unse
cured debts of the company. They con
test Mr. Huger’s claim. The case was
not finished to-day.
