50 Years Ago
Friday Great
War Ended
What do you street car debaters
know about war, anyhow? About
the only assemblage in Atlanta en
titled to an opinion on the subject
foregathered in the State Capitol lob
by Friday, meeting by chance under
the statue of Ben Hill.
There was General W. A. Wright,
Comptroller General, who lost his leg
at the Second Manassas; Judgj
George Hillyer, vice chairman of -Fie
State Railroad Commission, a captain
under Lee; Colonel John W. Lindsay,
State Commissioner of Pensions, who
served during the great war in f he
Third Georgia and was wounded at
Spottsylvania, and Tom Lumpkin,
former member of the Legislature,
and himself a veteran of the four
years.
Judge John C. Hart, State Tax
Commissioner, was there also, but
being a mere youth of threescore
years, he looked on respectfully while
the others reminded one another that
Friday was the fiftieth anniversary of
the surrender at Appomattox, and
that it was their own comrade, Cap
tain James W. English, who bore
General Grant’s peace proposals to
General Lee.
They were there nearly an hour,
talking. It takes an hour to get start
ed, fairly, when old comrades get to
gether,, and among themselves they
decided that there was only one war
and orte commander,, anyhow, And
w'hen they had reviewed a campaign
or two Colonel Lindsay ran upsta : rs
to his office, two steps at a time, just
to show that the old campaigners still
can do a thing or two.

struction. was fined $10.75 by Record
er Johnson Friday for discharging
firearms and was bound over to the
Superior Court on the charge of as

loudly and in Sharky’s presence a
number of remarks concerning the In
dignity of manual labor,
Sharkey, with the signs of his toil in

WASHINGTON, April ».—Ger
many’s note to the United States
agreeing to pay for the William P.
Frye, sunk by the raider Prinz Eltel
Friedrich, but declaring the act justi
fied, came as a surprise to officials
here to-day.
It Is feared that the stand taken by
Germany would serve to upset the
negotiations now progressing between
the United States and Great Britain
over the blockade of Germany by the
Allies.
Germany takes the position in. this
oa*e that the Frye cargo was Contra
band because it was consigned "for
order” to Queenstown, which is held
to be a fortified port of Great Britain.
In its communications to the Allies
the United States has insisted that
the burden of proof that the goods
were destined for use by the armed
forces of an enemy must rest on the
belligerent sizing a cargo consigned
“for orders”
The German Foreign Office insists
the action of the Prinz Eitel was fully
justified under international law, but
agrees that the Ka’ser’s Government
is liable for Indemnity under old
Prussian treaties of 1799 and 1828.

MONTEZUMA PIONEER DIES.
MONTEZUMA, April 9.—Judge A.
J. Hamilton, pioneer citizen, died this
morning, after a short illness, aged 86
years.
;en, a
nips,
AMSTERDAM, April 9.—Riot*
broke out in Brussels to-day in con
nection with the compulsory regis
tration order issued by General
Von Bissing, the German Military
Governor. The firat day for regis
tration of young Belgian men was
set for March 23. Four hundred
men marched through the streets
to-day shouting "Wo won’t sign!”
The rioters were dispersed by
troops. Similar riots occurred at
Ternath. where two men were
killed.
GENEVA. April 9.—Germany
to-day prohibited the export of
merchandise through Switzerland
to Italy.
PARIS. April 9—Veterans from the
battle-seasoned army of General von
Kluck are being sent into the Woevre
district (between the Meuse and Mo
selle Rlversi to check the furious
French drive against the German left
wing, according to reports made by
aerial observers at Verdun.
Believing that the position of the
Germans east of Verdun Is critical.
General JofTre gave orders for an un
ceasing series of fierce assaults, and
during the last two nights there has
been no let up in the fighting there.
Beneath the glare of "star bombs”
and the flash of powerful searchlights
right fighting for the possession of
trenches has gone forward. The ob
ject of the French is fourfold:
1. To press back the German left
wing in order to cause a retirement of
the German armies on the Aisne and
Oise Rivers.
2. To pierce the St. Mihlel-Metz line
of German communication.
3. To lessen the German pressure
at Verdun and establish a French po
sition nearer to Metz.
4. To dislodge the Germans from the
only position they hold on the west
bank of the Meuse south of Verdun.
Dead Fill Tranche*.
The battle front in the Woevre la
not more than fifteen miles long, but
heavy losses have been Inflicted upon
both sides. German trenches filled
with dead bodies were taken by the
French.
Although the Germans deny that
the French have made any appre
ciable progress, it Is authentically
established that gains from two to
four miles have been made by Gen
eral JofTre’s forces along the Woevre
front. . _
Night assaults by the Germane
against the British army in Northern
France and violent counter attacks
against the French army In the Woe
vre district have both been successful
ly repulsed, says the official commu
nique. given out at the War Of
fice this afternoon. The attacks
against the British forces were de
livered on Wednesday night and on
Thursday morning.
The trenches prepared by the
French at Eparges, in the Woevre dis
trict, were so choked with Germg
dead that the French did
them. Two counter attau
Germans in that sector jsfere repulsed.
When they took the German positions
in the Ailly Forest the French cap
tured six machine guns and two
trench mortars.
Weather Still Bad.
The weather over a considerable
part of thi battle front remains bad,
with cold rains and fog.
The text of to-day’s communique
follows:
"We left unoccupied the German
trenches which we captured at Epar
ges because they were completely
choked with corpses and we repelled
at the close of the day two counter
attacks made by the enemy.
In the wood at Ailly we captured
new trenches and repelled two counter
attacks as already reported.^ We also
secured six machine guns and twv
