GEORGIANS FOR PHILIPPINES
President McKinley Awards Commissions to
Five Citizens of the State.
TWO CAPTAINS AND THREE LIEUTENANTS ARE NAMED
Eleven Places Are to Be Given Georgia and the List
Is Now Nearly Completed.
A Washington special says: Geor
gia had its innings at the white house
Tuesday and during the president’s
working hours his pen traced the
names of a number of Georgians who
may soon have an opportunity to dis
tinguish themselves.
In the batch of appointments to the
army that came from the white house
during the day were Cleveland Wil
coxon, oi Atlanta; Owen T. Kenan, of
Macon; W. K. Wheatley, of Americas;
Biunton Winship, of Macon and Ed
H. Almand, of Conyers, Wilcoxon and
Kenan being given captains’ commis
sions, while the others were awarded
a lieutenant’s shoulder straps.
Wilcoxon nud Windship were offi
cers in the Second Georgia, Kenan
was in the First Georgia and Wheatly
was in Ray’s immunes. These five,
with Major Spence, of the regular
army; Captain Walter Corbett, of Ma
con; Captain Frank Crenshaw, of
Barnesville, and Lieutenant Long
street, of Gainesville, comprise the
Georgia list as it has been completed
to date. These men have been com
missioned and their commissions have
been duly signed by the president.
Georgia is to have several other ap
pointments, two others, and perhaps
more, but the authorities have not yet
determined, apparently, which they
shall be of those indorsed.
It is almost certain, however, that
the lucky ones will be selected from
Captain Clarke, of Elberton, who has
beeu strongly indorsed for the cap
taincy; Captain Miller, of Augusta,
who is being urged by Colonel Dyer
and the republicans; Captain Kim
brough, of Griffin, and Captain Davis,
of Perry. Strong efforts are being made
to laud all these,but it is said at the war
department that only eleven places are
to be given Georgia in all. Of course
there are a number of other applica
tions aud all are strongly indorsed.
The Georgia contingent has not
been able to get as much as was hoped,
but in this respect other southern
delegations are in the same boat. The
fact is that the southern senators and
congressmen were given to understand
there would be no appointments at
this time, or for some time yet, and
while this understanding was on, a
list of the specially approved was made
out. The senators and congressmen
lxad to contend against this list in
finding places for their southern con
stituents.
While this special list was based on
merit, it is perhaps natural that the
administration senators and congress
men found their constituents cared for
first. The Georgia senators indorsed
a number of applicants, indeed all of
those who had a good record, and the
final selection was made by the war
department presumably on merit.
However, w r hen there are so many ap
plicants it is no reflection on those
who fail that others were chosen.
An effort has been made to distri
bute the appointments geographically,
but in all cases the records made by
the men have been considered and os
tensibly at least their appointment has
been based on that. Senator Bacon
and Congressmen Lewis, Livingston
aud Bartlett are in Washington mak
ing strong efforts to land other appli
cants. Their chauees for success are
very problematical. Judge Bartlett
has recommended besides Kenan, Win
ship and Kimbrough, Lieutenant New
ell, of the regular army, for staff posi
tion, Captain Wylie, Captain Wall
and Captaiu Frank Curry.
The Twenty-ninth is the regiment
that will be raised in Georgia and
surrounding states, and will be mus
tered in at Fort McPherson, Atlanta.
Congressman Livingston has made
formal application to the secretary of
war for the stands of regimental colors
used by the First, Second and Third
Georgia regiments, his desire being
to have these put in the statehouse.
MAY BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
Florid*'* New Anti-Scalper Law I Prob
ably No Good.
A Tallahassee special says: It has
just beeu discovered that the famous
“anti-scalpers’ ” law enacted at the
recent session of the Florida legisla
ture for the avowed purpose of driving
railroad ticket brokers out of business
in this state, is probably unconstitu
tional. This statute has hitherto been
regarded as ironclad and perfectly free
from constitutional objections, but au
investigation now being made is prac
tically certain to precipitate a lively
battle in the Florida courts over the
validitv of the law.
FIVE MILLIONS LOST.
Texas Floods Destroyed In Aggre
gate 200,000 Bales of
Cotton.
The cotton exchange in Austin,Tex.,
has just completed the work of care
fully tabulating the losses on the cot
ton crop attendant upon the Brazos
river flood. They have secured data
from all the counties affected by the
flood and have compiled all returns.
The result is that they find that the
loss in the Brazos bottom will repre
sent 200,000 bales of cotton, which
they figure out to represent $5,000,-
000 loss.
They have also figured out from
their reports from all over the cotton
growing area of the state that the
floods in the bottom will not have
nearly the effect on the crop that was
at first expected. They now find from
their reports that the heavy rains
which produced the flood and ruined
the crops in the bottom have benefited
cotton growing on the upper lands
proportionately, so that by far the best
crop harvested in years will be pro
duced from the uplands this season.
WAR DAMAGES DENIED.
Miss Favre Wanted *lO,OOO From United
State! Government.
A "Washington dispatch says: The
secretary of state has sent Ambassador
Cambon, of France, an answer to the
latter’s recent letter submitting the
claim of Miss Ivan Favre for $lO,OOO
damages attending the capture of the
French steamer Olinde Rodriguez, on
which she was a passenger, by the
cruiser New Orleans during the block
ade of San Juan.
Miss Favre’s claim recited that she
had suffered from an attack of fever
while at Charleston and the damages
were for this and the indignities of the
detention. From the facts cited the
secretaiy states that the United States
naval authorities could not be charged
with any negligence in the circum
stance attending the capture.
The secretary reviews the facts in
much detail and states in the conclu
sion that the government is not liable
on this claim. The answer is likely
to establish a precedent on a large
number of similar claims. The secre
tary says the French steamer was first
observed by the cruiser Yosemite on
July sth, and that an officer of the
Yosemite went on board and noted in
the log of the Rodriguez that a block
ade of San Juau was in progress.
Miss Favre subsequently took pas
sago at Port Au Prince on July 13tli.
On July 17th the Rodriguez was again
sighted off San Juan, whereupon she
was captured by the New Orleans. The
prize was taken to Charleston on July
22d and on August sth all the passen
gers w r ere released by court order and
turned over to the Freueh company.
Secretary Hay’s letter is accompa
nied by one from Attorney General
Griggs, giving facts submitted by the
United States district attorney at
Charleston bearing out in detail the
points made in the secretary’s letter.
He says the Ridriguez was anchored
off the battery in Charleston harbor,
in one of the most healthful spots
along the Atlantio coast. The health
officer’s letter is to the same effect.
Aside from the bearing of his decision
on the individual case, it may have a
bearing also on the claims which may
be brought forward by the owners of
the steamer Rodriguez and of the La
Fayette, which was stopped off Ha
vana.
Fatal New York Fire.
Fire in a crowded tenement in Mou
roe street early Tuesday resulted in
fatal injuries to five persons and the
overcoming by smoke of eight others.
There were sixteen families in the
house. It could not be determined
just how the fire started.
