G0RDAN HEADS MEN IN GRAY
Gallant Georgian Re-elected Com=
niander=in=chief.
Atlanta, Ga., July it— Gen.
John B. (Jordan, the figure of the
Confederacy, was to-day chosen to
continue as commander-in-chief
the veterans, a position he has so
well filled for ten years.
Amid the cheers of the veterans,
the shouts of his admirers and a
scene rendered wildly picturesque
“ re hief.,
h‘its and umbrellas by 10,000 peo-
pie who crowded the Auditorium
in Atlanta, ^ le general, bowing
ri - rht an< ? modestly ac-
knowledged the honor thrust upon
him-
A further indorsement was given
eminent Geor e i ‘"> b .v the elect-
at the same time ot the men who
for years have been near him in the
direction of flic affrvrs of tlie Con¬
federate Veterans Association. The
officers chosen are :
General Commanding — Gen.
John B. Gordon of Georgia.
Commander Department of Ten-
nessee—Gen. Stephen D. Lee of
Mississippi.
Commander Trans-Mississippi
Department—Gen. W.L. Cabell of
Texas.
Commander Army of Virginia—
Gen. Wade Hampt on of South
Carolina.
The tumult which greeted the
naming of these popular idols had
scarcely subsided before Gen.Steph-
en D. Lee, the second in command,
introduced the following resolu-
tion
“Wheras, the L nited States of
America are at present engaged in
,heinsere,tof
‘•Wheras, our comrades and our
which are now exciting the wonder
j °f mankind,
| | “Therefore, be it resolved, That
we, survivors of the United Con-
federate veterans,pledge our loyalty
and the hearty c °-°P eration of the
organization in thi# crisis of affairs
to stand ready at all times with men

as much intrinsic value in it as any
in the city.
Hats.
If you want a Hat we can sell
you. We seldom have a kick on
our prices. Some people, you
know, would kick if you gave them
one. But we will come as near it
as any one they can find; so we
would be glad to have them call on
us too, unless they are looking for
some one to swindle them. Then
we would rather they woud stay
out, for fear we would fail to please
them, and satisfied customers are
what we want. They do more and
better advertising than any paper.
If you do not want to buy anything
come to see us and look over our
goods and get our prices and tell
your friends where to get them and
when you need anything we will
save you money.
When the clerk had finished read¬
ing the resolution, Gen. Gordon
said he heartly favored it. lie de¬
clared that it was in hearty accored
with the sentiment of Confederate
Veterans evervvvhere and sorely re¬
gretted that he was not himself the
author of the resolution.
Several speeches were made en¬
dorsing the measure, and with a
chorus of cheers it was adopted.
The report of the battle abbey
committee, recommending Rich-
raond as the site of the proposed
battle abbey, precipitated some dis-
cussion on account of the interest
which various localities throughout
this section have taken in the mat-
ter, but the excitement ended in the
adoption of the committee’s report.
The next session of the United
Confederate Veterans’ Association
will be held at Charleston, S. C.
Lousville, Ky., was a bidder, but
the old vets wanted to again visit

SPANIARDS SINK
THEIR GUNBOAT
Breach of Faith On the Prrt of
the Surrendered Forces At
Caimanera.
Guantanamo Bay, Santiago, de
Cuba, July 26.—The Prairie arriv¬
ed here from Nipe Bay last evening
ancUreported all quiet.
The Spaniards last night sunk
the Spanish gunboat Sandoval,
which has been lying near Caiman-
era. This is looked upon as being
a gross breach of the terms of the
surrender, which the Spaniards then
had knowledge of.
It is difficult to see how the large
body of Spanish troops at Holguin
can fail to surrender very soon, al¬
though reinforced by the Spanish
forces at Gibrara. Holguin is one
of the commanding points in east¬
ern Cuba, and the surrender of its
garrison will be an important event
in the war. News from there is ex-
pected shortly and upon it will de¬
pend some the plans of our com¬
manders.
The Vixen and Suwanee returned
to Santiago yesterday morning,con¬
voying the prize ship brought here
for disinfection.
The main bodv of the fleet is here,
cleaning as well as the facilities of
the bay permit. The Texas will
leave for New York shortly in order
to undergo repairs. The movements
ot the other ships under Rear Ad¬
miral Sampson’s command, except
those engaged in the Porto Rican
expedition depend upon the decis¬
ion of the authorities at Washing¬
ton and the impression is growing
among the naval officers of high
rank in these waters that it is not
advisible to send a fleet to Spain
without previously enabling the
ships to undergo through
tion—'by going in dry dock in se%'-
eral cases.
