The elaborate celebration at the Jamestown Exposition today of the three hundredth anniversary of the landing of the first English settlers' was ushered in by the firing of a sa lute of seventeen guns from Fortress Monroe, incident to the arrival at Old Point Comfort at 6:15 a. m. of Gen. Baron Kuroki and his staff and party, accompanied by Gen. O. E. Wood, as official escort. Gen. Kuroki and his party were met at the Old Point Com-;: fort pier by Gen. Grant and Maj.

The third battery of United States Field Artillery, com manded by. Capt. T. N. Horn, made a splendid showing. The second squad ron of the Twelfth United States Cav alry. commanded by Maj. H. G. Sickle, evoked great enthusiasm, passing the reviewing stand in capital lines and spirited cadence. Kuroki Interested in U. S. Cavalry. Gen. Kuroki and his staff, next to the sailors from their own kingdom, seemed to be most interested in the American cavalry. The passing of the last command was the signal for the withdrawal of the guards and the ad mittance of the spectators to the pa rade grounds in front of the grand stand, where the brief exercises plan ned for the day were held. The invo cation by Rev. Geo. Booker, pastor of Epworth M. E. Church, Norfolk. “The Jamestown Anniversary Ode." by the late James Barron Hope, was read by Judge T. S. Garnett, of Nor folk.

Of Interest to Traveling Men. ATLANTA. May 13.—The State Court of Appeals has rendered a de cision which will be of widespread In terest to traveling men, as it Involves the responsibility of railroads for the destruction by fire of sample trunks or other baggage left at a railroad depot without checks. The suit was that of the Southern Railway Comrany vs. Rosenheim & Sons, of Savannah, whose traveling man named Adams, left his sample trunks at the road’s depot at Waynes- ville, N. C. after having surrendered his claim checks, but with the per mission of the agent that they might stay there over night.

May 13—Should minis ters who grow gray In the service be "Oslerized?” This question was ap parently answered in the affirmative by the Atlanta Methodist ministers at their weekly meeting today. Rev. J. H. F.nkes. one of Atlanta’s well known Methodist preachers, brought up tho subject for discussion as to whether ministers lose their influence and pow- rrwlth declining yenrs. It appeared to b<r the accepted theory that they do. t<y the extent that the meeting passed /h affirmative resolution. It did not /tate. however, what should he don rith iced ministers. However, tho cn I' n0 . t , rPC ' 0 '" pr ' ing them, arranged with the agent to keep them in the depot where he open ed them during the day and sold goods to a customer from his samples. That night the depot burned down and the trunks were destroyed. On the ground that he had a Southern Rai'jvay mile age book upon which he had the right to claim checks for his trunks, Rosen heim and Son* sued the Southern, and recovered a judgment in the city court of Savannah. The Court of Appeals reverses this ml'ng. holding that the railroad is not responsible except where it has ac cepted the baggage and given checks for it. The leaving of t“e trunks in the depot for the day and over night was the result of a personal agreement between the traveling man and the agent with which the railroad had nothing to do. and the owner therefore Methodists have a superannuated fun-l to take care of this situation.

In the coach for white people the jar was rather harsh but fortunately no one was seriously injured. A drunken passenger is said to have caused con siderable excitement, especially among the women passengers by his hysteri cal remark that the engine would blow up and kill every body if the passen gers didn't leave the train at once. R. J. Scott, of Atlanta, who in company with his little son was en route to Ea- tonton, is said to have quieted the passengers’ fears by his cool and time ly assurance that the danger had pass ed, and that the best thing for every one in the car to do was to keep their seats and make the best of the situa tion. Engineer Minor has figured in two wrecks during his railroad service. About two years ago he was in charge of an engine pulling a train which was wrecked between Croom and Willston. in which he received injuries which necessitated a long leave of absence from duty. His right leg was so bad ly crushed that he had to be taken to Baltimore where specialists per formed a delicate operation, removing several bones from the leg. His escape last night may be considered miracul ous in that he was only badly scalded, although internal injuries may make their appearance later. The wrecking train was immediately sent to the scene and after several hours of hard work the wreck was cleared away sufficiently to resume traffic. DEAD. Bartow Peck, negro fireman. INJURED. John B. Minor, engineer, of Macon, badly scalded and possibly injured in ternally. Dave Taylor, negro porter, of Ma con. ribs broken an dbadly shaken up. Jennie Hart, colored, 454 Pium street, Macon, left arm and right leg badly wrenched. Roberta Williams, colored, Wilson County, internal injuries. Central passenger train No. IS, due to leave Macon last night at 7.45 o'clock for Eatonton. fell victim to a wreck the Royster Guano Company’s switch, 11-2 miles from the city, which resulted in the death of the negro fireman. Bartow Peek, and injury to a half dozen others. From all accounts It seems that the train was running at about twenty- five miles per hour at the time of the accident, and from all appearances was due to splitting switch. The engine was the first to leave the track, carrying with it the combination baggage coach. The engine was almost completely der molished and the comb'natlon coach was partially wrecked, while the white coach was derailed but practically suf fered no serious damage. The track age was torn up for a distance of fifty- yards SAVANNAH. Oa.. May 13.—The annual meeting of the Daughters of the King of the State was held in this city tonight.

The trans-Atlantic lines are using their crews in loading and un loading. Perhaps the most interest ing development of the day was the announcement from Montreal that the longshoremen had gone out. WASHINGTON, May 13.—In the case ot the State of Georgia against the Tennessee Copper Company and the Ducktown Sulphur and Copper Company, in which the plaintiff today- asked the Supreme Court of the Uni ted States to restrain tho defendant companies from the operating of their smelters at Ducktown, Tenn., Justice Holmes, while not granting the in junction, announced that he would en tertain the State's motion unless the companies make such improvements as will put a stop to the objectionable fumes to which the plaintiff objects. The smelters are very near the Georgia line and that State asked to have them condemned as a public and private nuisance alleging that they constituted a menace to health and were the sourco of great injury to vegetation for a radius of fifty miles. Holding that the case Is not on the same footing .as if between private parties, but that “in its sovereign ca pacity the State has an interest inde pendent of and behind the title of Its citizens In all the earth and air with in its domain,” Justice Holmes said that Georgia has a right to make de mand that the air over It should not be poluted on a great scale by sulphurous acid gas. that the forests in its moun tains should not be further Impaired by poisons beyond its control, and that crops and oreahrds should not be in jured from the same source. Coming to the proof in the case, he said with out any attempt to go into detail, im material to the suit, it is proper to add that we are satisfied by a preponder ance of evidence that the sulphurous fumes caused and threatened damago on so considerable a scale to the forest and vegetable life, if not to health within the plaintiff's State, as-to make a case within the requirement of the case of the State of Missouri against the State of Illinois. If the State ad heres to its determination- there is no alternative to issuing an injunction, after allowing a reasonable time to the defendant to complete the structures that they are now building and the ef forts they are making to stop the fumes. The plaintiff may submit a form of decree on the convening of this court in October next STEEL KING WAS AFRAID OF THE UNLUCKY 13 NO. Mabel L. Gilman After Midnight Montreal Longshoremen Out.

STRIKE AND LOCKOUT OF BRICKLAYERS IS OFF night this (Tuesday) morning. The ceremony took place in the royal suite at the hotel Gotham, Fifth avenue and Fifty-fifth street, in the presence of a mall party of friends of the contract ing couple. The ceremony was per orated by Rev. J. L. Clark, pastor of the Bushwick Avenue Congregational Church of Brooklyn.

Arnold, a traveling preacher from Franklin County, was sent to the rock pile this morning by Mayor Dorsey for having whipped his little 9-ycar-old adopted daughter unmer cifully. It appears from -evidence of two men who saw the latter part of the whip"- ping that Arnold had carried the child out into Linton’s woods yesterday after noon just before dark and had made her take off her dress. He had then whipped her- so severely with a switch that the skin was cut off her left arm in two places and her back made very red. Her screams could be beard for some dis tance. Arnold has been conducting a tent meeting neur the plant of the Southern Manuafaeturinsr Company and this littlo girl lias been helping him by singing and passing around the hat. The child was evidently afraid of him pnd her testi mony was given under great stress. Ar nold himself made a statement that he had told the child not to plav baseball on Sunday, and that she had disobeyed hin^ God told him to whip her ;.nd he carrieo her out in the woods and prayel with her. Then he whipped her. He s tld he thought he had a right to do what he had done. Mayor Dorsey did not take this view- of It. He told Arnold that he had no re lic-ion; that he was a.brute; that hell was filled with just such creatures, and that honest men were kept out of the kingdom of God by just such preachers. He sen tenced him to six months’ service on the rock pile and at its expiration advised hitn to shake the dust of Athens off hir feet. As for the child, he instructed Chief of Police McKie to find a home for the littlo one in some orphans’ home. Promotions of C. & O. Officials. RICHMOND.
