Quartermaster Has Conference
With Governor and Important
Result Is Expected.
General William G. Obear. whose
dismissal from the military service of
Georgia has neefi urged to the Gov
ernor by Adjutant General Nash, lias
i onferred with the Governor as to his
(Obear’s) status in the military es
tablishment, but no definite statement
as to the results of the conference
have been given out.
General Nash, while qualifying cer
tain statements credited to him,
"stands pat” on his general recom
mendation that General Obear’s posi
tion be abolished and his salary
slopped on January 1.
The Governor says he is giving tlie
case ! is most careful consideration,
and will make known his determina
tion when lie has looked into every
legal phase of It.
General Obear is understood to have
taken the position that his office of
quartermaster general Is legal, and
ihat he lias everv right under the law
to hold if
Obear Blames Politics.
It Is said also that General Obear
lays all of the trouble in the Adju
tant General’s office to political and
personal dislike, lie makes no bones
of admitting knowledge of General
Nash’s enmity toward him, and says
he has purposely avoided coming In
contact with Nash any more than
possible, because of his realization
that the chief of the department did
not t are hit him particularly, either
as an officer or as a man. That,
however, lie has not permitted to in
terfere with his duty as quartermas
ter.
General Nash has gone so far as to
let It he known that the Governor
must choose between himself and
Obear. If Obear is retained in his
present position, over Nash’s protest,
it will so seriously embarrass the lat«
ter that he may resign.
It is whisn^red that Obear may re
tire gracefully, and thus relieve the
situation, but that is not authorita
tive.
In the meantime the Governor is
nerolexed. He will not make either a
personal or political issue of the
trouble in the Adjutant General's of
fice. but will take the course the law
plainly lays down.
One of Them Will Go.
At the same time ii is evident that
whatever course he takes, that course
likelv will mean the elimination of

NEW YORK, Dec. 27.—With thir
teen lives lost and millions of dollars
of damage done to property, the ter
rific wind, hail, rain and snow storm
which began Christmas night anl
swept over five States abated to-dav,
leaving a cold snap in its wake. In
this city the thermometer dropped 16
degrees to 27 degrees. Colder weath
er is expected before night.
The storm was one of the fiercest
that ever swept over this section of
the country.
The masters of the A. C. Ropes and
Undaunted, coal barges, with eight
seamen, lost their lives when the
barges foundered oft Forked River,
N. J.
Two men died of exposure and were
found on roads near Trenton, N. J.
A workman was drowned in the
East River when his rowboat was
swamped.
The full force of the storm fell
upon that stretch of the Jersey coast
which reaches out into the Atlantic
Ocean like an elbow. Records at
Long Brancn showed that the wind
attained a velocity of 122 miles an
hour, the highest ever recorded in the
Weather Bureau.
Sea bright, N. J., was the plaything
of the ocean. Waves, w hipped by the
gale, tore away supposedly flooo-
proof bulkheads, smashed bathhouses,
washed away or undermined fisher
men's cottages, tore away portions of
tw’o big summer hotels, inundated the
main streets and buried railroad
tracks under 18 inches of sand, brick
and rock.
