gram there is no ordnance camp at Jack
sonville. The senator stated that no
nrcposals are being considered for the
removal of the camp of the quartermas

MOST OF MISSING
MEMBERS OF CREW.
LONDON REPORTS
(Continued from Pago 1.)
and had been swimming about for two
hours before being rescued.
Process of Convoys
The process of convoying has become
almost routine through practice in both
the British and American navies.
A screen of destroyers or other swift
craft travels ahead of a convoyed fleet.
The destroyers are spread out over a
considerable area. It is known that vir
tually all of the German U-boats are
equipped with listening devices of con
siderable range so the approach of the
destroyers became known to the U-boat
commander even before the vesesls
themselves were sighted. Fear of depth
bombs would drive the I’-boat below, to
lurk motionless at some depth until
the sound of the propellers had faded
out showing they had passed. The
U-boat probably would come to the sur
face then to explore.
Navy officials say that the one chance
against which absolute precaution will
not guard, is that the submarine will
come up in the path of the approaching
transport, obtain a sight that will per
mit her to train her torpedo tubes by
compass and again submerge
While the loss indicated was fully ap
preciated by officials here, there was
a general air of relief about the war
and navy departments that the loss of
life was not larger.
Heroic Work of Convoy
There is every hope that the lower
number will prove to be correct, British
convoys close to the torpedoed ship
closed in quickly and d’d heroic work,
as the comparatively small number of
losses shows. The position of the Tus
can!* off the north coast of Ireland,
evidently headed for England, also was
such that numbers of British patrol
ships and other vessels rushed to her
side, and in that way the losses were
minimized.
Such reports as were at hand early
today gave no details of how the trans
port, supposedly heavily convoyed, fell
in with the submarine, but it was re
garded as more probable that the ship
stumbled on the submersible, rather
than that the disaster was the first
shot in the much-advertised German
offensive against the line of American
troops and supplies.
The war department’s message saying
that ”1,100 survivors” had been put
ashore at Buncrana and Larne indicat
ed that the convoy vessels got alongside
the sinking transport quickly and relief
ships made the scene of the disaster
within a few hours.
Survivors cared Mor
The war department issued the fol
lowing statement:
"Britisa authorities have wired in
structions to their commands in Scot
land and Ireland to afford our treops
from the Tuscania every possible as
sistance and to furnish them with cloth
ing requirements. Officers have been dis
patched from Liverpool and Glasgow and
London to points in Ireland where sur
vivors tow are and they will wire
names immediately. American consul at
Belfast reports 600 survivors at Larne.
As soon as they are properly outfitted
they will be brought to Winchester.”
Buncrana is on Lough Swilly on the
north coast of Donegal not far from
Londonderry, while Larne Is a north
channel port on the east coast of An
trim tiear Belfast. The landing points
indicate that the Tuscania was taking
the northern route around Ireland to
England and the distance between Bun
crana and Larne leads officials to be
lieve the number of rescue ships search
ing the vicinity is large.
The Tuscania was torpedoed Tuesday
night.
last of Bumvivors Coming
A coded list <rt-curVivors was coming
into the war department early today, but
officials declined to give out the names
already received. The troops aboard the
Tuscania were mainly former Michigan
and Wisconsin national guardsmen now
attached to the Thirty-second division,
trained at Camp MacArthur. Texas. Sev
eral aero squadrons and several compa
nies of the Twentieth engineers, a for
estry regiment, were aboard. The list
of units as made public by the adjutant
general’s office last night, is as follows;
One Hundred and Seventh Engineer
train.
One Hundred and Seventh Military
police. ,
Number 100 Aero squadron
One Hundred and Fifty-eighth Aero
sq uadron.
Two Hundred and Thirteenth Aero
squadron.
Replacement detachments numbers
one and two of the Thirty-second di
vision.
Fifty-one casual officers.
The One Hundred and Seventh engi
neers was composed of the first battal
ion of Michigan engineers; the One
Hundred and Seventh military police
was made up from the Fourth and Sixth
Wisconsin infantry, and the One Hun
dred and Seventh supply train from the
Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Wisconsin In
fantry.
The Tewentieth engineers, a forestry
regiment, and the aero squadrons prob
ably were recruited from various sec
tions and the place they trained was not
mentioned by the war department.
The «ine Hundred and Seventh regi

Farmer Is Sentenced
For Selling Liquor to
Soldier at Camp Gordon
W. W. Glover, a farmer living near
Camp Gordon, arrested December 21,
last year, for selling liquor to soldiers,
was found guilty in the United States
district court Tuesday morning and sen
tenced by Judge William T. Newman to
three months in the Fulton county jail.
Glover is fifty-four ysars old. He was
• arrested at his home by Deputy United
States Marshall W. T. Daniel on com
i plaint of Corporal 1. W. King, of Camp
I Gordon, who alleged he purchased from
Glover a gallon of whisky for $lO.lO.
I in offering testimony in his defense,
Glover said in court that he sold the
whisky to the soldier because It was a
cold day and he ’’felt sorry for him.” He
admitted, however, that he purchased
the whisky for $8 a gallon and sold it
to the corporal for $lO, besides the ad
ditional charge of 10 cents for the jug.
The case was prosecuted by W. Paul
I Carpenter, assistant United States attor
l ney.
He Asks $2,500 Sum
For Introducing Hillyer
ROME, Ga., Feb. s.—Twenty-five hun
dred dollars for introducing several men
to others Is what D. B. Carson claims
I from the Matthews Iron and Steel com
’ pany, successors to the Matthews Iron
and Mining company, of this city. In a
suit filed yesterday in Floyd superior
court Mr. Carson declares that In the
latter part of 1916 or early in 1917 he
made a written contract with the Mat
thews firm providing that he was to
receive $5,000 if he introduced Mr. Mat
thews or his manager to men who could
and would lend the firm money and
that he made the introductions and
the firm borrowed a large amount of
money from William. Hurd Hillyer, of
Atlanta. In the spring of 1917 Mr. Mat
thews asked Mr. Carson, the latter as-
I serts, to reduce his fee for performing
I the introductions because the loans ob
tained had been only partially what
was wanted and Mr. Carson consented
verbally to reduce his fee to $2,500. He
is now suing for that amount.
Rockdale Farmers Arrested
For Distilling “Moonshine”
Roy King and S. T. Lanier were ar
rested Monday afternoon on a charge
i of manufacturing moonshine whisky on
| their farm in Rockdale county. The ar
rests were made during a raid on a still
Monday by Internal Revenue Collec
tors T. B. Harris nad J. A. Henderson.
The still, containing thirty-five gallons
jof liquor, according to the federal of
| fleers, was destroyed.
! and many other officials, remained up
■ late for more details but only the terse
war and state department messages
i came through until the list of survivors
began to arrive from the American army
j headquarters in London early today.
The state departments dispatch said
Ambassador Page had sent two army of
. ficers to Belfast and representatives of
I the American Red Cross and the Y. M.
C. A. had gone with full power to spend
all the money needed in the relief.
Although the American transport An
tilles was torpedoed and sunk in the war
zone while returning from France and
fourteen' soldiers and 156 others were
lost, the Tuscania is the first ship car
rying American troops to Europe to be
sunk by submarine. American warships,
convoying transports last June, twice
fought off submarine attacks and since
then there have been no reports of at
tacks on ships carrying American troops
I to France.
The Tuscania until last fall had been
in the transatlantic trade but the sink
ing indicates that she recently has been
engaged in transporting American
i troops She carried a British crew and
a British armed naval guard and was
convoyed by British warships. The use
of British ships to carry American
troops has been hinted at recently in
onection with decision of the supreme
war council to make every effort to in
crease General Pershing's army.
Navy department officials have be
. lieved that the Germans might concen-
■ trate their submarines on ships trans
' porting American troops and the recall
’ of many submarines to their bases re
: cently was interpreted as preliminary to
i such a campaign. Despite the most care-
I ful plans, navy men say, there is al
ways a chance of a troop ship stumbling
\ upon a submarine, and the general belief
I here is that this is what happened off
; the Irish coast.
Red Cross Rushes Aid
To Belfast for Soldiers
LONDON, Feb. 7.—The American
Red Cross headquarters here dispatched
Captain Edgar H. Wells and Captain
Smith to Belfast immediately news of
the torpedoing of the Tuscania was re
ceived. They were instructed to spend
I all money needed for supplies for the
l survivors. A telegram also was sent
to the American consulate at Belfast,
masking that money and supplies for im-
I mediate needs be provided.
The British Red Cross, which has
depots in Ireland, immediately placed
all its resources at the disposal of the
Americans and instructed its represen
tatives to do anything possible to help.
Ambassador Page received from the
lord mayor of Belfast a telegram ex
pressing condolences.
20th Engineers Largest
Regiment in the World
WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.—The Twen
i tieth engineers (foresters) is the largest
I regiment tn the world, although only
one battalion was on the Tuscania. The
aggregate strength of the regiment is
j 17,000 officers and men. Some of the
units are still in training in a camp
near here. Colonel W. A. Mitchell, of
the regular army, commands the regi
ment, and Henry S. Graves, chief for
-1 ester of the United States department
jof agriculture, is lieutenant colonel.
Neither, however, was with the battalion
on the Tuscania.
The work of the Twentieth regiment,
which was raised with the active co
operation of the American Forestry as
sociation. is to cut timber in the French
forests for military uses at the fighting
I front, for hospitals. Young Men’s Chris

SHEPARD & GLUCK'S COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 7.—While the market
*m depressed in the early trading today, it
recovered later and went to a small net ad
vance in the afternoon. Something of a pessi
mistic feeling prevailed in the morning, due
to the sinking of an American transport and
to the steadiness in the increase of Brit’su
tonnage losses, but steadiness gradually took
hold of the market, being based ou a feeling
of genuine alarm regarding the new crop out
look. The early decline carried prices off
16026 points. The recovery brough tthe trad
ing months back until they were 4 points lower
to 5 points higner than the close of yes
terday.
British tonnage losses this week were fifteen
vessels of over 1,660 tons. While these losses
are not material, nor anywhere near the program
set for the German submarines, they were
larger than for several weeks past. Regarding
the loss of the transport. It can hardly be ex
pected that hundreds of thousands of men can
be taken aoross a submarine-infested ocean
without some losses. The early decline was
based almost altogether on sentiment, rather
than on anything new or any change in the sit
uation. It can hardly be said, however, that
sentimental features are to be connected with
the new crop outlook. Sellers of the last few
days were dlsappointd this morning ovr the
continued drouth in Texas. Other states are be
ginning to claim that the planting of food crops
on an extensive scale will be at the expense of
cotton. The last crop was small and the coin
ing crop does not promise to be large. We ad
vise buying on all good breaks.
JOHN F. CLARK A CO.'S COTTON LETTER
NEW ORLEANS, La., Feb. 7.—The market
opened 10 to 17 points lower ami after some
hesitation declined further on suspended sup
port in consequence of unfavorable general
news, expectation of bearish weekly statistics
tomorrow and sympathetic effect of the coffee

of a spirit against holding movements to ad

modity muts be kept moving in as direct a line
as practicable and wituout unreasonable de
lay.
March futures again showed the most re
sistance to the decline because of the already
Urge discount from spot quotations. However,
the attraction of the premium position as an
outlet for the neglected and less salable low
grades is correspondingly Increasing. Feaures

GRAIN MARKET OPINIONS
Ware & Leland: There appears little warrant

Bartlett-Frazier Co.: The corn tnarket lacks,
ny definite direction. We strongly advise
..gainst operating on the short side of oats on
xeuk spots particularly.
D>gan & Bryan: Expect movement sufficiently
arge to cause a melding in cash premiums,
which undoubtedly will be reflected in futures.
E. W. WAGNER A CO.’S GRAIN LETTER
CHICAGO, Feb. 7.—Oats firm on small re
ceipts and continued reports of liberal cash
>ats premiums, presumably for domestic qse.
One report claims about tic over Chicago bid
in lower Illinois. No export news. Sentimental
news suggests bulges will not be permanent.
Only 50 cars of oats at Chicago and some
ritics believe grain receipts will be moderate
for a time. There are opinions also that the ?
.•ining February and March corn receipts will !
not equal ex;>ectations. Early run of corn at <
Chicago ran 60 per cent sample grade. Out |
.if last 1,729 cars of corn in past 10 to 12
bays, 45 per cent are sample grade. Other
stuff is mainly 5 and 6 grade.
