FROM Seven to 3STi ne YEARS OLD, THE WEEKLY NEWS, CARTERSVILLE, GA. Georgia. \Cullings * Brief Bat Interesting Summary of Happenings in the State. Outlook Feu- Cotton Gloomy. The weekly reports continue to he generally of a discouraging character. Crops have suffered from excessive rains in nearly all counties, and are much in need of cultivation. The con dition of cotton is on the whole poor, and numerous correspondents eonsid er the outlook gloomy. Peaches are rotting and shedding in many sections, and less than an average output is in dicated. Good crops of wheat and oats have been secured. Especially in counties in the middle of the state are reports on cotton un favorable, also corn. Schley and Upson counties indicate a poor outlook. Weather conditions have been unfa vorable to all crops. The temperature the past week has been seasonable, but too much rain causes an abnormal growth of weeds and grass. Farmers find it impossible to keep the crops clean. All crops are suffering badly from excessive rain all over the state. Especially on low and bottom lands, corn and garden products are being drowned out and left almost a total loss. * * * Newnan’s strict Sunday Law. The chief of police of Newman has been instructed to rigie.y enforce the Sunday ordinance in the city. Begin ning last Sunday the soda founts, cig ar stands and bootblacks were placed under the ban, and nothing w r as al lowed to be sold but ice, drugs and medicines, and no work done except of necessity. Sunday has heretofore been the principal day of "shines” with me population, and it’s likely that dus ty shoes will become the strict order of the day. * * * Adams Succeeds Denmark. Hon. S. B. Adams, of Savannah, has been appointed a trustee of the Uni versity of Georgia to fill the vacancy on the board caused by the death of the late Brantley A. Denmark. Mr. Adams was a member of the firm of Denmark, Adams & Freeman, of Sa vannah, ail three of the members hav ing been graduates of the university. Mr. Adams is city attorney of Savan nah. and has filled many positions of importance and trust. • * * Elberton Gets Long Distance. Elberton Is to be connected with At lanta by long distance telephone. R. L. West, superintendent of the Bell system in Atlanta has obtained from the city council a U-anchise for put 3 , ting up a long distance phone. The only gap is between Elberton and Ath ens, as the Bell runs from Atlanta to nens already. * * * Donation From Peabody. The University of Georgia alumni endowment fund received a handsome increase Saturday morning when Chancellor Hill opened a letter in his morning mail postmarked New York. The letter bore the signature of Hon. George Foster Peabody and in it was sent his check for $5,000. The check was sent as the contribution of Mr. Peabody to the endowment fund now being raised by the alumni socie ty of the university. Mr. Peabody is not an alumnus of the university, nev er having attended college here, but as the endowment arrangement em braces friends of the institution as well as alumni, Mr. Peabody was glad to subscribe himself a friend to the handsome amount of $5,000. * * * Two Rural Delivery Routes. The Lawreneeville postmaster has received notice from the post office de partment at Washington to establish two rural delivery routes from the Lawreneeville post office to take effect July Ist. The routes are designated as Nos. 1 and 2 and pay SSOO each. * * * Widows Must Wait. Not only must 9,000 Georgia teach ers, as a result of the supreme court’s decision in the Park mandamus case, wait for the salaries now due them by the state, but some 1,000 confeder ate widows must also wait indefinitely for the $60,0u0 or more which is now due them under the pension bill ap proved by the people and passed by the legislature at its last session. The teachers themselves may be able to get their script cashed by the banks, but there is serious doubt as to wheth er or not the widows will be so for tunate, in view oi the fact that their warrants may not be so readily accept ed by the banks. • * * Governor Will Borrow Money. There is no other solution to the state's financial muddle brought about by the litigation over the public prop erty fund according to state officials but that the teachers must wait until fall for their money. Governor Candler has decided to borrow $200,000, and will make ar rangements to do so as soon as he gets a statement of the treasury’s status from Treasurer Park. The governor will make an effort to get this $200,000 from the state de positories at 2 per cent, the same rate of interest as they pay to the state. Whether or not he can do this, he does not yet know, but it is thought proba ble they will willingly lend the money t othe state. The public property fund will re main in the state depositories where it has always been kept. * * * Dunton Indicted; Gives Bond. Golden x>.

NOTED HEAD HUNTER GIVES IN General Cailles Finally Signs Agree* ment of Surrender With His Force of Some Five Hun dred Men. A Mnaila special says: Seventeen judges have been appointed to the courts of first instance. Among these appointments there are eleven Ameri cans, who have been given the most important circuits as follows: Manila, Kincaid of Texas and Odlin of New Hampshire; Aparri, Blount of Georgia: Dagupan, Johnson of Michi gan; Batangas. Linebarger of Illinois; Nueva Sacerae, carson of Virginia; Ilioilo, Bates of Vermont ; Negros, Nor ris of Nebraska; Cebue, Carloek of Illinois; Zamboanga, Ickis of lowa, and probably be more than 500. Washington Satisfied. Colonels Infant and Guivara, repre sentatives of General Cailles, Satur day signed the name o. their principal to an agreement to surrender. Under the terms of this agreement General Cailles is to assemble his men at San ta Cruz, laguna province, as quickly as possible, and there surrender him self and his command to the Ameri can autjorities. The exact number of his force is uncertain, but there will probably bemore than 500. Washington Satisfield. Officials of the war department are very well pleased with the prospective surrender of General cailles, the Fili pino insurgent leader. Advices receiv ed at the department indicated that this would occur soon. Cailles is a man of considerable influence and with his backing of some hundreds of men has been a menace to the military authorities to stamp out the rebel lion in Luzon. His capitulation, there fore, is regarded with much satisfac tion by the authorities here, who say they see in it another evidence of the general disintegration of the insurgent force. For more than a year past General Cailles has commanded the insurgent forces operating on the east side of Bay Lake not far from Manila. He Is said to be a French half caste, and during the last revolution he has ac quired a reputation for vindictiveness anu cruelty. The Society of Mando-Ducats, whose practice it was to assassinate and bury alive those of their countrymen who \ accepted American sovereignty when ever the latter fell into their hands, operated with the cognizance, if not the support of General Cailles. At one time Cailles offered a reward of $lO for the heads of all Americans, and more recently he offered a reward of SIO,OOO for .he head of Captain Edward N. Jones, Jr., of the Eighth infantry. Since the capture of Aguinaldo Gen eral Cailles,who was one of the few insurgent leaders who diu not surren der under the terms of amnesty, has been persistently pursued by the Amer ican troops. He was said to have been wounded in one engagement last month, and negotiations for his sur render have been going on with Gen eral Sumner for some weeks past. He was declared to be an outlaw by the American authorities, and this fact, which meant that he could not expect to enjoy immunity for his violations of honorable warfare,but would have to stand trial on the many charges against him, doubtless compelled him to prolong his resistance. The members of tbe federal party advised him to surrender, but this he persistently refused to do until he saw his capture was inevitable. Cailles was a man with considerable influence with the Filipino people, and an aggressive fighter. He kept his followers well in hand, his system of mobilization was exce’lent. In the mountains of La Guna province, where Cailles practically confined his opera tions, he had many advantages over the American troops frequentily sent to dislodge him, and rendered their ef forts futile. He is credited with the Sinaloian affair last year, in which a few American troops were badly cut up. MISTRIAL IN KENNEDY CASE. Jury Unable to Decide Fate of Dolly Reynold’s Alleged Slayer. A New Yont dispatch says: The twelve men who, since 12.15 o’clock Saturday afternoon at the conclusion of the judge’s charges considered the evidence in the third trial of Dr. Sam uel J. Kennedy for the murder of “Dolly” Reynolds, reported to Judge Newburger at i0:2o o’clock Sunday morning that they were unable to agree on a verdict. The judge at once discharged the jury from further ser vice and remanded the prisoner to the Tombs. Depositories to Keep Funds. The depositories of Georgia will keep $532,750 of the state’s money for the next fifteen years. This point has been practically settled by statements made by Governor Candler and Treasurer Park. Health Resort Chartered. The secretary of state of North Car olina has issued a charter to the Vade Meeum Sprirgs Company, of Stokes county, with a capital of $120,000. LOOMIS GOES TO LISBON. Former Minister Plenipotentiary to Venezuela Gets a More Con genial Assignment. The following changes diplomatic posts was announced at Washington Monday: Francis B. Loomis, minister to Ven ezuela. nas coen transferred to be minister to Portugal. vie< John N. Ir win. of Illinois, resigned. Herbert W. Bowen, of New York, present minister to Persia, has been transferred to Caracas, sx:creedjng Mr. Loomis as minister to Venezuela. Lloyd C. Griscom. of Pennsylvania, present first secretary of legation at Constantinople, has been made min ister to Persia. Spencer F. Eddy, of Illinois, present second secretary at Paris, bas been made first secretary at Constantinople to succeed Mr. Griscom. Arthur Bailly Blanchard, of Louisi ana, has been promoted from third to second secretary at Paris. By his transfer from V< uezuela to Portugal. Minister Loomis, who is now on leave in England, loses $2,500 a year. The salary at Lisbon is $7,500 and that at, Caracas SIO,OOO per an num. But Mr. Loomis finds sufficient compensation in the climatic change and in the probability *.A more conge nial duty at his new post. Beside, his actual rank is the same in either case, namely, minister extraordinary and envoy plenipotentiary. Mr. Bowen, who becomes the new minister to Venezuela, has a most creditable record in the consular and diplomatic service. He became Uni ted States consul at Barcelona in 1890 and his office at that post was raised to the rank of consul general five years afterwards. Mr. Bowen stuck to his post through tlie exciting days preceding the Spamsh-American war as long as any American could have found safety on Spauish soil. At the conclusion of tne war he was about to return to his old post, but instead was appointed minister resident and consul general to Persia. The change so far as it concerns the Venezuelan minister is said at The state department to have no particular political significance. Mr. Loomis, goes elsewhere than Caracas at his own request and desire, it is true that the Venezuelan government has ex pressed dissatisfaction with Mr. Loom is in more ways than one. but the fact that the minister is not removed from the diplomatic service, but is given an other post of equal dignity and hon or, is a mark of the esteem of the state department. Also, it may be noted, Mr. Bowen, the new minister, goes to his post with instructions on the same line as those supplied to Mr. Loomis, which formed the basis for his action, so that Mr. Bowen, who is a man of great vigor, is likely to follow Mr. Loomis’ footsteps in the matter of policy. STRIKERS FAIL TO RESPOND. Newport News Shipbuilding Company Lay Off Many Men and Will Virtually Close Down. Twelve hundred men from the va rious departments Monday wsre laid off at the plant of the Newport News Ship Building and Dry Dock Company, and as many more will be laid off at once if the striking machinists do not return to work.

The machinists show no disposition to return to work, only two or three responding Monday morn ing when the yard opened. The de partments chiefly affected are those of the boiler makers, blacksmiths, car penters and joiners and ship fitters. ANARCHIST BRANDED TRAITOR. Group at Patersoyi Burn Letter “T” On Hand of Former Comrade. All through me one of the men who have composed the Paterson, N. J., group of anarchists will tarry upon the back of his right hand a livid “T” burned in the flesh and marking him as a traitor in the cause to which he swore devotion.
