ADMIRAL WILL VISIT SODTH
"Dewey Is to Accompany Lieutenant
"Brumby to Atlanta, Ga.
ACCEPTS INVITATION Gill
Will Present Sword Awarded His Flag
Lientenant By Georgians.
A Washington epecial says: Admi
ral Dewey has accepted the invitation
of the citizens of Atlanta, Ga., to par
ticipate in the ceremonies attending
the presentation of the sword to Hag
Lieutenant Brumby.
The invitation was formally tender
ed to the hero of Manila Saturday by
a delegation of prominent oitizens,
and a prompt and gracious acceptance
was immediately annonneed.
Accompanied by Representative Lou
Livingston, the delegation called upon
Admiral Dewey, at the McLean resi
dence. The interview had been pre
viously arranged through Lieutenant
Brumby, hence the Georgians received
an extretnely cordial greeting from the
admiral. The reception took place in
the parlor, which was beautifully deo;
orated with flowers, potted plants and
the national colors.
These little formalities having been
completed, Mayor Woodward who was
one of the committee, stepped to the
front and in the name of the citizens
of Atlanta, indeed in the name of all
the people in the state of Georgia, in
vited the admiral to visit Atlanta and
witness the presentafion of a sword to
Lieutenant Brumby. Mayor Wood
ward went on to say ho* proud the
people of Georgia are to claim Lieu
tenant Brumby as their own, and he
informed the Admiral that a hand
some sword had been procured by
popular subscription to be presented
to Lieutenant Brumby.
The admiral at that point inter
rupted the mayor to say that he had
seen it stated that the people of Geor
gia intended to give Lieutenat Brum
by a sword, and he desired to say that
gallant young officer was worthy of
any honor or distinction his friends or
his country might see fit to bestow
upon him.
This high testimonial to Lieutenant
Brnrnby was made with so much sin
cerity that it deeply impressed the mem
bers of the delegation, and their ad
miration of the admiral was increased
accordingly. The admiral took occa
sion to say that he not only appreciated
the valuable services rendered by
Lieutenant Brumby, but he also ap
preciated the noble and patriotic part
played by the representatives of the
southern states, in the army and navy
during the war with Spain.
He said he knew how bravely the
southern men rushed to the support of
the nation’s honor and shared the glo
ries of victory with their northern
brethren and thus wiped out all traces
of sectionalism. The admiral’s atten
tion was called to the fact ihat Geor
gia sent more men intc the United
States service to battle against Spain
than any other state in the union.
The admiral replied that the infor
mation was intensely gratifying to him
and it made him all the more anxious
to visit Georgia and personally show
his appreciation of the valor and
patriotism of the southern people.
Turning to Lieutenant Brumby, the
admiral said: ‘‘Brumby, we have but
two engagements ahead—one in Chi
cago and one in Philadelphia.”
Brumby replied in the aflirmative,
whereupon the admiral delighted his
visitors by saying:
“Well, gentlemen, you may count
on me being present to see Brumby
get his sword.”
He said he could not state definitely
when it would be convenient for him
to visit Atlanta, owing to an engage
ment he has with the president and
the members of the Philippine com
mission, soon after the president re
turns from his western tour.
His acceptance, with that qualifica
tion, was entirely satisfactory to the
delegation, aud the details of the visit
were further discussed.
The admiral evinced such a warm
personal regard for Lieutenant Brum
by throughout the interview that a
ohange was made in the original pro-
PROSPECTS OP PEACE.
Latest Advices Indicate That Boers
nay Yet Yield.
A Loudon dispatch says: Most im
portant news from the Transvaal was
received Saturday night, which, if
true, probably indicates that the South
African republic is about to yield, or
any in case, that the Boers have
abandoned all idea of invading Natal.
The news is comprised in a cable
gram from Newcastle, Natal, which
says that farmers who arrived there
from the Buffalo river state that the
Boers are returning to their homes,
leaving patrols along the river. The
commanders will remain on the Free
State border.
.jrara, so as to place the admiral in the
picture and give him a conspicuous
part to play in the ceremonies attend
ing the presentation of the sword.
On the steps of the capitol at Wash
ington, it was deemed a high honor
for Admiral Dewey to receive the na
tion’s sword from the president of the
United Stateß. At Atlanta it will be
an equal honor for Lieutenaut Brumby
to receive Georgia’s sword from the
hands of the nation’s hero, Admiral
Dewey. The suggestion was promptly
acted upon, and the programme will
be arranged on that basis.
Admiral Dewey stated that his de
sire to show his personal appreciation
and friendship for Lieutenant Brumby
was a sufficient inducement to him to
visit Atlanta on the occasion of the
sword presentation, but added to that,
his desire to recognize in his humble
way the glorious part the men of the
south have played in the war with
Spain.
He then referred with deep feeling
to the recent deaths of Naval Cadet
Wood of Georgia, and Lieuteuant
Commander Eldridge, of Alabama,two
brilliant young officers of the navy,
who lost their lives at Manila.
ORDERS ISSUED
At Washington For Discontinu
ance of Department of
the Gulf.
An Atlanta dispatch says: The
acting commander of the department
of the gulf, Colonel John Simpson,
received Saturday from Washington
the official order of the war department
discontinuing the department of the
gulf and transferring the headquarters
to Governor’s Island.
From the nature of the order it is
regarded as evident by the officers of
the department that the mind of the
president has been made np, and that
the efforts of Atlanta business men
will bring no satisfactory result. The
order states that the change is made
by direction of the president, and is
signed by the secretary of war, the
commanding general and the adjutant
general of the army.
Colonel Simpson stated that he was
in no way acquainted with the purpose
of the war department in discontinuing
the department of the gulf, but sup
posed that Atlanta had been made the
headquarters on the outbreak of the
war on account of its central location
and its thorough connection with the
southern seacoast towns. With the
war at an end there was nothing to
accomplish by the continuance of the
department.
CHAIRHAN JONES HOPEFUL.
Says Bryan Will Not Only Be Nom
inated But Elected.
United States Senator James K.
Jones, of Arkansas, chairman of the
Democratic national committee, and
wife, were passengers on the Cunard
line steamship Lucania that reached
New York Sunday. They have been
traveling in England, Ireland, Scot
land, Switzerland and Wales for sev
eral months. Senator Jones said that
he had been much benefited by his
lengthy European travels, and felt
ready to go into the hard work neces
sary in getting ready for the presiden
tial campaign.
Senator Jones, when asked to give
his views on the political situation,
said that, owing to his long absence
abroad, he was not as folly informed
as to political conditions as he hoped
to be in a few weeks. When asked
his opinion as to the probability of the
Democratic nomination for the preei
deney going to William J. Bryan, he
said:
“There is no doubt that Bryan will
receive the Democratic nomination for
president,”and added: “Has anybody
any doubt on that question? Bryan is
sure to win. ”
Reed Visits Washington.
Ex-Speaker Thomas B. Reed ar
rived in Washington Sunday. He
declined to discuss politics, saying he
was here to remove some of his private
belongings.

BLUE AND GRAY.
Civil War Veterans Assemble In
Fraternal Reunion at In
dianapolis, Ind.
A special from Evansville, Ind.,
fnys: The national reunion of the
blue and gray opened Tuesday at
Camp Farragut to continue four days.
The program as arranged for the
opening session was not carried out
in its entirety, owing to the fact that
the platform arranged for the speakers
was not finished until late in the af
ternoon and some of the listed speak
ers did not arrive uutil evening,among
them Governor Mount, of Indiana.
Decorations stretched from all the
buildings in the business center of the
city. Incoming trains brought 4,000
veterans and visitors, who thronged
the streets. About 000 tents were
raised in the Tri-State fair grounds
for the accommodation of the vet
erans.
It was not until late in the afternoon
that the reunion was really begun.
Mayor William M. Aiken, Jr., wel
comed the blue and gray veterans, and
Captain J. H. Harris, of Nashville,
Tenn., responded.
The principal address of the day
was delivered by Colonel Pollard B.
Hill, of Macon, Ga. He said in part:
“The majority of my comrades,
while rich in legacies of valor, are
poor in this world’s goods. Though
poor we be, yet if there be any within
the sound of my voice who tremble at
the old rebel yell, though given in
honor of a national event, and whose
slumbers are disturbed by visions of
hungry confederates feeding from the
public crib, rest in peace. That can
never be. We waut no pensions from
the United States government and are
not entitled to them. No man can re
tain his self-respeet and accept that
not his due. Comrades in blue, we
want only your friendship and moral
support.
“At this moment there is hanging
over my beloved southland a pall as
black as night. The racial problem
confronting us calls for wise and able
statesmanship to solve. Many of our
people live in hourly dread of the
stealthy approach of the despoiling
fiend. You once gave us a heroic
dose, and it cured the patient. We
feel now that we shall not call in vain
for your aid.”
After the speeches a dress parade of
the military organizations was held.
The evening was devoted to general
campfires of the veterand at Camp
Farragut.
