PLIN TH RETIRE' OLDOFEIGIILS ON HILF PM iCouncilmen Seeking Charter! Amendment Have Clayton and Goldsmith in Mind. ■ That the real object of the movement to give city council power to remove officials was the retirement on half pay of Chief of Construction R. M. Clayton and Comptroller J. H. Goldsmith. t«’> of the oldest officials of the city, was definitely learned today. Clayton and Goldsmith have served In most important capacities for about 30 years and both are candidates for re-election without opposition The salary of Captain Clayton is 34,000 and of Mr. Goldsmith $3,000 No councilman has been bold enough to state the intent of the amendment covering this design now in the hands of the committee on charter amend ments. But privately it is said by’ all that its object is to retire the two men. The ordinance was framed by the or dinance committee of council and was to have been passed at the last meet ing. But it was too broad in its scope. It gave council the authority to retire the mayor or any other official, electivg or appointive, at any time by a two rthirds vote. Objections were imme diately registered and It is now being revised by the charter amendments committee. Retirement Now Voluntary. Under the present pension ordinance no pension can exceed SSO per month and retirements can only be mad*, on | the application of the pensioner. The 1 new amendment, when introduced in I council again, will provide for authority to council to retire any official and that those officials w ho have served 30 years at a salary of 33,000 a year or more shall receive half pay. The members of the ordinance com mittee. from which the resolution was introduced, are Charles IV. Smith, James E. Barren. John S. Candler, Clarence Haverty and Claude C. Mason. But the fate of the ordinance is as yet unknown, for there has been no test vote in council. EXPOSITION MILLS TO ADD 16.000 SPINDLES AT COST OF $200,000.00 Steady growth of the manufacture of cotton products in this section is shown today in the. announcement that $500,000 is to be expended in building two new factories and in enlarging an other. The Exposition Cotton mills of Atlanta have placed a contract for 16.000 additional spindles and machin ery at a cost of 3200,000. The Empire Cotton Oil Company of -Atlanta will erect a cotton seed oil mill at Madison. Ga . at a cost of 3100.000. A cotton mill will be built at once in Kershaw, S. C., by the Kershaw Cotton mills, recently incorporated, with a capital stock of 3200,000. Rebels Apologize; Release Americans SANTIAGO. CT-BA. Jun* 3.—Georg* Cbllister and Albert Wheeler, th* two Km*ri’-*ns reported kidnaped by the rebels, have returned to their ranch near Saigua They stated that Gen eral Estenoz had taken six horses from them, but had apologized for doing so and had then permitted the. two men to leave th* ramp. Tbev were escorted back by a rebel guard. General Estenoz. who. with General Ivonet, heads the Cuban revolution, is sued a manifesto today upholding the action of the insurgents in the destruc tion of property He declared that this course is necessary to establish the belligerency of th* rebels. "We are not engaged in war against foreigners," sa-s the proclamation, but w* justify our course in the destruc tion of property under the ordinary rules of warfare tv* must show the world that we are fighting for a cause. ‘ The rebel leaders are getting large sums of money from some mysterious source and the soldiers are being paid bonuses for exceptional exhibitions of bravery. COMMISSION PLAN BEING FRAMED FOR CITY OF SAVANNAH Savannah, ga.. Jun* s —Five ot th? 21 sections of the tentative plan for commission government for Savannah have been adopted bj' the enlarged committee of 60 members.

The enlarged committee has agreed that there shall be a mayor and four aidermen. who snail devote their entire time and attention to the business of the city, the mayor to receive an an nual salary of 36.000 and the aidermen s.■>.ooo each. The municipal govern ment shall be divided into five de partments, with the mayor or one of the aidermen at th* head of each of the departments of finam*. public works, public safety, property and public health. I CLARK HAS4B4 PLEDGED ' DELEGATES; ASSURED FIRST BALLOT CHOICE NEW' YORK. Jun* 3.—Speaker I Champ Clark s presidential campaign j managers are now crowding on al! I steam to a whirlwind finish on the i first ballot at the Baltimore convention. | With the last of the delegates to the j convention selected, a stock taking of the Clark managers shows him with a commanding lead of 484. which takes no account of the states, New York among them, where the delegates are uninstructed, and presumably win cast their votes for the unmistakable choice. of a vast majority of the Democratic electorate. Friends of the speaker figure that these will be swung to him when the trend of sentiment becomes certain, as will also other votes now counted as uncertain, before th* end of the first ballot is reached, so that a nomination of Mr. Clark by acclamation is con fidently expected as an outcome of the party conclave. This is the logic of the situation, ac cording to the shrewd reasoning of those who have manage the magnifi cent campaign of the speaker up to this stage. The 484 votes credited to him are pledged absolutely, morally or by ac tual count of heads. It is a clear and commanding majority over all the other candidates in the field, and represents a compact, determined body of men representative of the sentiment in their respective states which max be count ed upon to resist any combination or compromise that max be offered. Aroused No Bitterness. Bareli’ in the history of either of the great parties, it is pointed out, has a candidate for a presidential nomination come down to a convention w ith such a commanding majority of the dele gates without having left in his wake bruised political feelings and factional dissension to create trouble for him in the aprty ranks in the ensuing cam paign. The point of which is illustrated in the remarks of Supreme Court Justice Gerard, of this efty, that Mr. Clark "shows a disposition to be the candi date of a great partv - rather than the candffiate of his own personal ambition." And that ' he seems the one figure on whom all the factions can unite, on 1 whom no serious attack can be made." ■ It is as the candidate of a harmo nious Democracy that Clarks nomina tion is looked for on the first ballot at Baltimore, as well as the candidate of a fearless, progressive Democracy which is destined, under his leadership, to sweep the country’ at. the polls next No vember. What Justice Gerard says in his strong indorsement of Senator Clark has been echoed a thousand times since the beginning of the remarkable cam paign for delegates which closed last night with an impressive popular vic tory for the speaker. Enthusiasm the Keynote. Enthusiasm has been the keynote., and it is significant of the great popu larity of the speaker—the glowing quality of his record of service and the soundness of his statesmanship—that his candidacy ha-- matched at all times, and in reason and solid worth has ex ceeded th* acclaim with which Theo dore Roosevelt has been received. The spontanietv- and enthusiasm with w-hich state after state, in all sections of the country, swung into line for th* speaker Is the strongest argument, next to the delegates themselves, for his nomination at Baltimore. All sectional Soldiers End Feud; Ready for Cuba William J. Ellis and William J. Cole man. privates in the Seventeenth L. F infantry, are perfectly good friend:- to day. If the regiment goes to Cuba the two soldiers will stand shoulder to shoulder on the firing line. They had been at “outs" for a long while, but, in anticipation of an active campaign in Cuba determined to settle the old feud for once and all. Deciding on a duel of fists, they met downtown Selecting the alley in the rear of the Bijou theater as the “field of honor.” the fistic duellists repaired there, in company with two seconds. Doffing caps and coats and baring their arms to the elbows, the two w ar- , ricre faced one another, ready for th* conflict. On* of the seconds counted ■•One —two —tblree." and the two sol diers mixed it. They were pummeling one another in the. face and on the bod? in regular pugilistic style when Policeman Gor don chanced in the alley and stopped th* combat. He took the two bat tered duellists into custody and haled them Into police court. They explained to Recorder Pro Tern Preston that they merely were settling a long standing feud, and the recorder imposed a smab fine of $5.75 in each case. When th* court asked the belligerents'if the dif ferences were settled, they replied tha* ■•everything was all right. To prove it they shook hands in lh» i presence of the court and left the room together. ATLANTANS WILL SPEAK AT CHARITY CONVENTION Two Atlantans. W. H.

He did no campaigning on his own behalf, but remained at his post of duty in Washington, presiding over the house of representative-s and adding, by that mefns. to the swelling record of his performances There has been no halt or setback. "On to Baltimore with a great lead" IS the watchword and rallying cry. and with this commanding shoving which Clark has made in every section of the country, no doubt is felt that when the great council of leaders has assembled and taken note of sentiment, the wishes of a majority of the Democrats of the nation, expressed in a score of harmo nious conventions, will be heeded in the nomination of Champ Clark without further ado. Few Contests To Vex Convention. » The cardinal point to be noted is that there will be few contests, no more than two or three, to vex the convention* when it settles down to work. It will be a question . of preference, with 484 delegates for Clark, as against th* field trailing behind with no candidates w ithin a hundred vote, of the speaker. The table of delegates shows the commanding position of Mr. ' lark. His strength is that of a candidate whose popularity among hi- party followers has placed him pre-eminently above all other candidates for the nomination. His lead is such that the nomination of no other candidate is possible under the two-thirds rule of Democratic conven tions. His nomination i-- regarded as certain, therefore as a matter of course as well h- of necessity, party expe diency. well-merited- reward and the national w elfare.
