Rome, Ga., Dec. 9.—Mr. Sproull Fouche yesterday returned from Cl attanooga, where be had been ' at the bedside of Mr. Robert Spronll, who had both limbs crushed off just above the ankles / at Chickamauga Saturday. The fortitude of the young man was something remarkable. Thir ty minutes after the ponderous engine had passed over and fright fully crushed his limbs Mr. Spronll rolled and smoked a ciga rette. At no time did he make any outcry or show anything but Spartan courage. a sure-enough candidate for the presidency. Perhaps he will call it into existence again now that he has waived all his presidential chances in favor of Leslie M. Shaw of the Hawkeye State. Other wise Mr. Belmont will be alone in his glory. - V started here, to be known as the Atlanta Daily News.

Washington, Dec. 4.—About the most noticable thing in congress today was the shirt collar of Rep- resenative Oliver Hazard Perry Belmont. Amid the crush of statesmen, rush of officeseekers, and banka of flowers, it could be seen flashing in and out like a sig nal light.
