MANY VACANCIES TO FILL
FLORIDA'S GOVERNOR TO HAVE
MEW MEM JM CABINET.
Deaths of Controller Reynold* and
Secretary of State Crawford and
Retirement of Railroad Comnils
aioner Bryan and Justice Mabry of
Supreme Court Leave Four De
airable Vacancies for Whtcli Flor
ida's Excr Alert Politicians Are
Mow Striving.
Tallahassee, Fla., June 21. —Fortu-
nate as Gov. Jennings' administration
has been in some respects, his cabinet
has been sadly depleted by death since
his inauguration.
Controller Reynolds was the first to
go, and he was soon followed by the
Umented Crawford, who for years had
TOCupied the office of secretary of
state, and who year after year, in
spite of his pronounced opinions and
uncompromising individuality, was
elected with the support of all factions
and without serious opposition. These
deaths leave two vacancies to be filled
at the approaching primaries, and in
addition to these, Mr. Justice Mabry,
of the Supreme Court, has signified his
intention of not putting himself in
nomination for another term, while the
Hon. John Milton Bryan of the Rail
road Commission will retire to his Vo
lusia county plantation at the end of
his term.
All this means four additional polit
ical jobs to be hustled for at the July
primary, and from present indications
the scramble, in some respects, will
be a lively one. The candidates for
secretary of state are H. Clay Craw
ford, son of the late secretary, and for
many years his chief clerk and right
hand man. His opponent, strange, to
say, is former Senator James E.
Broome of Gadsden county, who was
for many years a close political asso
ciate of Crawford's and one of the
most picturesque and striking figures
in the political faction with which he
was so long identified.
Close observers predict the election
of Crawford, who is, to say the least,
perfectly competent to fill the position,
and xvho is so well satisfied with his
chances that he is making no house to
house canvass, indulging in no heart
to heart talks with the dear people.
At the time of Controller Reynolds
death. Hon. A. C. ('room of Hernando
county was appointed by Gov. Jennings
to fill out the unexpired term.
Mr. Croom is now a candidate for
election, and if capacity, courage and
the faculty of intiative count for any
thing, he will inevitably succeed him
self. Brief as has been his teniae of
his office, Mr. Croom has succeeded jn
solving certain problems that his pre
decessors seemed unable to cope with,
and has already inaugurated certain
reforms in connection with the adver
tisement of delinquent taxes that will
save the state thousands of dollars.
All this, however, has not been accom
plished without friction, and like most
innovators, Mr. Croom has made some
enemies.
His opponent in the July primary is
to be I. J. McCall, a Hamilton county
man, who is known as “the plough boy
of Hamilton,” and who, while a novice
in politics, has the support of such po
litical experts as Senator Frank Adams
of Jasper, and John Caldwell of the
Jasper News.
Much interest attaches to the race for
the two places on the railroad com
mission. Chairman H. E. Day, who has
done more than any other man in the
state to make the commission a suc
cess, will have a walkover.
For Mr. Bryan’s seat there are no
less than four aspirants, John G. Ward
of Pensacola; Jefferson B. Browne of
Key West: J. N. Whltner, of Sanford,
and R. Hudson Burr of Little River,
which is over on the East coast, in Mr.
Flagler's territory. Ward and Browne
have thus far developed the most
strength, with the chances decidedly In
favor of the former, who was the sec
retary of the old railroad commission,
and who is singularly well-fitted for
the position.
FLORIDA’S INDIAN WAR FUND.
The AVniles Brothers and Others,
Who Were Promised Commissions
to Aid in Its Colleettou. Will
Doubtless Be Heard From.
Tallahassee, Fla., June 21.—People
are just recalling the fact that there
may be, after all, some “strings” at
tached to the $700,000 Indian war claim
of which so much has recently been
heard. In 1879 Gov. Drew issued to
Sidney I. Wailes, a well-known lob
byist, a “commission,” authorizing him
to act for the state, and promising him
15 per cent, upon the claim, if collect
ed. That commission was extended to
Gov. Perry, but in 1894 Gov. Mitchell
ignored the contract by entering into
an agreement with Wailes’ brother, W.
E. Wailes, by which the latter was
authorized to act for the state In the
premises. Sometime after Gov. Drew
had issued his commission Sidney
Wailes entered into an agreement with
the late Col. William E. Beard of this
city, by which the latter was to go to
Washington in his interest in consid
eration of 50 per cent, of the commis
sion on the claim. Col. Beard spent
three years in Washington at his
own expense, gathering data and
"educating'’ congressmen up to a real
izing sense of the justice of Florida’s
claim; and his heirs- i -among whom by
the-way, is the Hon. John S. Beard,
one of the congressional candidates in
this district—naturally feel that they
are entitled to their share of the pro
ceeds. It ts understood that they
have retained Judge George P. Raney
to look after their interests.
It is, however, far from probable
that the Wailes contract will be recog
nized. At all events. Gov. Jennings
under date of June 13, wrote the Hon.
L. M. Shaw. Secretary of the Treasury,
a letter upon the subject, from which
the following significant quotations are
made:
In this communication Gov. Jennings
sets forth the circumstances under
which, on or about Feb. 21, 1901, W. E.
Wailes came tr> him and presented the
original Mitchell memorandum, re
voking the authority previously grant
ed S. I. Wailes by Gov. Drew, and
empowering him to act in the matter.
In this communication Gov. Jennings
declares that Gov. Mitchell’s memo
randum was “then and there declined
and refused.” and “such authority as
he (Wailes), pretended to have was
revoked and declared to be of no bind
ing effect, etc.” Gov. Jennings' letter
to Secretary Shaw concludes by say
ing "that there has been no further
claim or representation on his (Wailes')
oart made upon my office for any rec
ognition or authority to act as agent
for the state's Indian war claim other
wise, and none has been granted."

The crops to which most attention
has been given are celery, lettuce, cab
bage, beans, Irish potatoes, tomatoes
and egg-plants.
Up to this date 122 cars of celery
have gone from here to the Northern
markets. A carload is 300 crates. The
other shipments are 30 cars of cabbage,
300 crates to the car; 3 cars tomatoes,
400 crates to the car; 12 cars of Irish
potatoes, 200 barrels to the car; *75 cars
lettuce. 400 crates to the car; 3 cars
beans. 400 crates to the car; 5 cars
cantaloupes, and it is estimated that
the egg-plant shipments will reach 25

point where not ten carloads per year
were shipped five years ago.
The vegetable business of Sanford is
in its infancy. Not one acre in twenty
of the choice vegetable land has been
brought into cultivation up to this time.
GEORGIA BaITaSSOCIATION.
The Stale's Judicial System to Be
Exhaustively Discussed.
Atlanta, June 21.—There is a late af
ternoon train from Atlanta and anoth
er early morning train which will en
able the members of the Bar Associa
tion, who may desire to attend the
state convention to get to Warm
Springs in time for the opening session
on Thursday. United States Circuit
Judge H. H. Lurton of Nashville,
Tenn., who is to deliver the annual ad
dress, is expected to reach the Springs
on the night of the 2nd. The Supreme
Court will also go on that day in all
probability.
More interest Is being felt in the as
sociation this year than ever before.
Judge Lurton is a most excellent
speaker, as well as a forceful writer.
Chancellor Hill of thp University is to
deliver an address on the "Georgia Bar
Association and Its Work.” President
Battle of Columbus has not as yet an
nounced his subject. The greatest in
terest is felt in the discussions. Par
ticularly that of the judicial system,
the lawyers feeling that It is absolute
ly necessary to relieve the Supreme
Court. Quite a number of plans of
different sorts to accomplish this end
have been suggested. It is proposed to
devote a large portion of the session to
the discussion of this question and if
possible to agree on some plan which
can be suggested to the Legislature.
Judge Cobb of the Supreme Court has
has agreed to give the views of the
court on the subject and several other
judges and prominent lawyers have
promised short papers.
The law schools, which have been
discussed for the past two or three
sessions will again come in for their
share of attention. Judge Atkinson of
Atlanta will, as chairman of the Com
mittee on Legal Education and Admis
sion to the Bar, bring in a report this
year, asking that the graduates of all
law schools be required to stand the
examination before the Board of Law
Examiners. Some of the law schools
object to this very seriously.
COUNCILMEN ARE OPPOSED.
Would Nevfr Consent to Erection of
Union Depot on Gilbert's Plans.
Governor Says He Received no Let
ter From President Spencer.
Atlanta, June 21.—Every member of
the City Council, each of whom was
Interviewed by thib Constitution to-day,
is opposed to the building of anew
union depot on the present site under
the plans of Architect Bradford L. Gil
bert. All of them say the city will
never consent to the closing
of Price street and the use
of portions of Wall and Lloyd
streets for such a structure. Consider
ing this fact and the attitude of Pres
ident Spencer of the Sjputhern, it may
be positively stated that no new depot
will be built on the state's property.
The result will he the construction of
a depot by the Southern on its proper
ty on the western side of the city at
Mitchell street.
Gov. Candler, when interviewed about
the matter to-day, said he had not re
ceived any letter from Mr. Spencer
and did not care to discuss the matter.
Asa matter of fact the letter from Mr.
Spencer was delivered to the Governor
last Monday afternoon by General
Agent J. S. B. Thompson of the South
ern. The Governor says hq will call
a meeting of the Depot Commission
about July 30.

SAVANNAH MORNING NEWS: SUNDAY. JUNE 22. 1902.
NOT STUCK ON HIS JOB.
Col. Ware Finds Pension Commis
sioner's Job Not a Red of Roses.
Washington, June 21.—C01. Ware, the
newly appointed Commissioner of Pen
sions, is already telling his friends
in confidence that he Is “not stuck on
his job.” He says he is required to
listen to all kinds of heartrending
tales, and is confronted with schemes
and questionable propositions from
claimants, who assume a "stand and
deliver" attitude in applying for pen
sions and allowances. Commissioner
Ware dined with the President a few
nights ago, and the President, It is
said, asked the new commissioner how
he liked the position up to date?
“It is less tempting now than it Was
when I consented to take the place,”
he replied, “but I have hopes that it
will become less, disagreable asl be
come better acquainted with the class
of customers I have to deal with.”
“That is a very encouraging way to
look at it,” said the President. “The
chances are, however, that the longer
you serve the more difficulties you will
hax'e to encounter.”
It is said that the President’s reply
somewhat puzzled the commissioner,
and the latter was confused as to
whether it was an indirect request for
his resignation.
All doubt on that subject was re
moved a moment later when the Pres
ident recalled an Incident of the first
interview they had, when the place
was tendered to Col. Ware.
"You are In for It now, and you
must stick it out,” said the Presi
dent. “You will remember," he added,
“our previous conversation?"
On that occasion Col. Ware hesitat
ed a long time before consenting to
serve. He was on the verge of an
emphatic declination. The President,
who is filled with military zeal on all
occasions, appealed to the soldierly in
stincts of Col. Ware In this way:
“Now, Colonel,” he said, “that is a
problem which appeals directly to sol
diers. You are a soldier. You served
in the war. Did you enlist or were
your drafted?”
"I enlisted," replied Col. Ware some
what indignantly at this implied doubt
as to his loyalty and courage.
“Why, of course, you did. I am
well aware of that fact. Now,” con
tinued the President in his most per
suasive manner, “your country again
needs your services in the pension of
fice, and the question is will you en
list, or must you be drafted?”
“When you put it to me In that
way," replied Col. Ware, “I cheerfully
enlist.”
THE MAPLE SUGAR INDUSTRY.
Senators Have Inn at Expense of
Mr. Proctor of Vermont.
Washington, June 21.—Senatorial
caucauses are not always as solemn
as they are made to appear, in the
general reports of the proceedings.
There was some flippant talk and
some playfulness injected into the sen
atorial caucus last Wednesday night
to consider the Cuban relief proposi
tion. Various beet sugar senators had
been called upon to express their
views on the subject. Senator Scott
of West Virginia humorously sug
gested that the senators present might
be enlightened if Senator Proctor of
Vermont would make a speech tell
ing what effect the proposed bill would
have upon the maple sugar industry in
the Green Mountain State.
Senator Proctor blushed and stam
mered something about a preference
for voting instead of talking. Senator
Hoar of Massachusetts caused a ripple
of senatorial laughter to float out
through the open windows of the con
ference room by suggesting in his high
falsetto voice: “My good friend, the
Senator from Vermont, does not make
speeches in favor of the maple sugar
industry. He Introduces a much more
effective procedure. He sends each
senator a jug of maple syrup, which
appeals more strongly to them than
any speech he might make.”
