nlile July t.
Washington. March 11.—There seems to
be a hitch between the officials of the
Navy Department anil the .property own
ers in Charleston, over the terms for
the site of the proposed naval station.
Rear Admiral Etidlcott stated to-<iy
that since he had received the report
of the Board of Survey, which recently
visited Charleston ,to consider a reason
able price to be paid for the Lawton
property, he had not submitted any fur
ther proposition to Ihe representatives
of Mrs. Lawton.
“In the tlrst place," said lie "S2OO an
acre was the price we offered for the
property. Members of the board are of
the opinion that that is more than the
property is actually worth. It is a mat
ter of record that only a short time ago,
property in that immediate vicinity was
sold for about twenty dollars per acre.
Under the circumstances the government
is not disposed to bo unreasonable in
driving the bargain, but in view of the
discretionary powers vested in the Sec
retary of the Navy by law, the secretary
does not intend to be imposed u|>on. Thus
far no steps have been taken to in
stitute condemnation proceedings because
the department nas under consideration
•pother available site for the naval sta
tion in the vicinity of Charleston, where
the conditions are equally as desirable
with the exception that at present it is
lacking In railroad facilities. We are
assured that ralroad facilities will be
provided immediately upon the selecton
of the latter site.
“The sbujeet is now under serious con
sideration, and for that reason I have not
made any further propositions to Mrs.
Lawton or her representatives.
“While we are anxious to have a tirst
class naval station located at Charles
ton,” said the Admiral, "it must not bo
forgotten that the law under which we
are acting does not direct the Secretary
of the Navy to spend a single dollar. It
simply authorizes him to exercise his dis
cretion in the location of a site, the es
tablishment of a naval station and the
construction of a dry dock capable of ac
commodating the largest battleship of the
navy, if, in his discretion, he deems it of
the best interest to the government lo
make the expenditure. T'nder a strict
construction of ihe language of the law,
he is not commanded to expend a single
dollar, unless he deems It advisable to do
so. When negotiations were first com
menced we were of the Impression that
there would be no delay or contention
over the agreement of terms. The money
for the purchase of ihe site was made
immediately available, so that the mo
ment satisfactory terms are reached the
transfer can be made. The amount ap
propriated for the establishment of the
naval station proper— lhat Is, the buildings
and approaches, will not be available
until July 1. It Is to Ihe Interest of all
concerned that the matter be adjusted at
once, so that the legal transfer of the
site may he fully completed, so that the
work on the station may be commences!
at the beginning of the new fiscal year."
Admiral Kndlcott expressed Ills sincere
regrets that the Charleston Exjiosltlon
was deprived of government aid through
the failure of Congress to m ike the de
sired appropriation. He remarked, how
ever. that Charleston will receive much
greater benefits by the cstabllshmet of
a naval station than would result from
an appropriation of $250,C0D for an expo
slt^lii.
“The government," said he. “will spend
n good deal more than a quarter of a
million dollars annually In Charleston
until the naval station and dry dock is
completed. A.- lietween the naval sta
tion and the exposition, Charleston is to
lie congratulated upon securing the na
val station."
MANY PEACH BUDS KILLED.
Hill No Ili'Ml Damage Done to imp,
Saj* Stair Kn t omit lugis t Scott.
Atlanta. March 11.—“ From 10 to 30 per
cent., according to the varieties, have been
killed,” said State Entomologist W. M.
Scott to-day. In speaking of the condi
tion of the Georgia fruit trees.
Mr. Scott has just returned from Mar
ehalville and Middle Georgia, where he
went immediately after the cold wave of
last week, to make an examination of the
orchards. He made an extensive tour in
that section of the state, and In referring
to his investigation, said:
"While it is true that quantities of the
buds have been killed, 1 do not think
that any considerable damage has been
done. and. in fact. I believe that the crop
Is yet safe. The buds had advanced con
siderably laßt week when struck by the
cold, and I estimated that 10 per cent, of
the buds of the Klbertas were destroyed,
but this will not Injure the croo. The
continued cold, if it keeps up steady, may
be considered a help now. but I do not
consider the danger period passed until
after the first week in April.”
SIX COMPANIES DEBARRED.

Augusta. March 11.—George W. Addison,
said to be a white tramp, lies dangerous
ly wounded at the City Hospital from a
pistol bullet in his left breast, fired by
William Boyd, a well-known citizen of
this county. Boyd lives on the Savan

day night Addison begged a night's lodg
ing. and Boyd generously took him In,
allowing him lo sleep in the same room
with him. Before day this morning Boyd
rose, according to his custom, and was
building a fire, when he was attacked
from behind with heavy blows from a
stick over the head and shoulders. He
turned to find his tramp lodger, who con
tinued to rain blows upon him. Boyd
made his way to his pistol and fired one
shot, but the remaining barrels snapped,
and Addison continued his assault. By
this time Mrs. Boyd, aroused by the tu
mult. rushed into the room, and Addison
turned upon her. Boyd then grabbed up
a slick of wood from the fireplace and
felled him with a blow on the head. He
does not know whether his lodger con
templated murder and robbery, or was
crazy. He is critically wounded.

Evan P. Howell, editor of the Atlanta

“While the Grippe is so prevalent, and
as one of Its victims hat found relief, I
cAnnot forbear giving the public one of
the secrets and best ways to get rid of
the distressing effects. After suffering
two weeks with it in Atlanta, with my
head, ears, and throat all involved—bones
aching and all the other disagreeable
symptoms—after I had tried medicines,
and Dr. Calhoun had blown through both
my ears from my nose, at his suggestion
I came here. I have been here one week,
and while I am not entirely over the ef
fects of the attack. 1 am so much better
that I do not hesitate to commend the
place to any fellow sufferer. In fact, I
deem it a duty to do so. * • * The ob
ject of this letter is not to advertise the
springs, but to tell my friends who have
the grippe, or have had it. to come here
and get relief. The proprietor says his
faith is so firm that any man or woman
suffering with the disease who comes and
uses the water as he directs and remains
for two weeks or a month, and is not
relieved will get his board free. As sure
as you come you will be paid for the
trouble. I believe the cure is as certain
for Dyspepsia Liver and Kidney
