The reason assigned for the con solidation Is the better systematising of the businesses of the firms so that the enormous business which wtll be handled by the Aiexandcr-Goodwln Duval Company may be handled to better advantage for their customers. The firms of Alexander & Plainer and Goodwin A Duvall handle probably 00 per cent of the large properties of Augusta and all of this renting busi ness, as well as the sales, fire Insur ance and loans will now be handled from one office. The value of the properties con trolled by the new concern will foot up to several millions of dollars, while the fire Insurance department will do a tremendous business. Ths loans will amount to a very large figure also. , Mr. M. H. Alexander entered the real estate buslnees In Augusta In the ca pacity of a salesman for Mr. John L» Maxwell, in ISB7.

In 191$ Alexan der and Steiner became a corpora tion. It will thus ha seen that Mr. Alexander la a veteran real estate man and Is recognised as one of the beet authorltlee in this city or section on reel estete affairs. The firm of Alexander and Plainer has made a number of notable sales. Including the sale of the Savoy cor ner to Mr. Ohaa.

For seven years Mr. Goodwin was chairman of the real estate board of assessors, and he Is a former council man from the second ward. He Is the man who made the deal whereby Au gusta secured the present postoffiee for a city hall; he Is the father of the Harrett plaza Idea In front of the union depot, which lie successfully carried to completion, and Is now the purchasing agent, of the river and ca nal commission, buying property for the levee right of way.

Mr. Duvall has had charge of the fire Insurance and renting department of tils firm and has made a splendid success. He Is one of the most popu lar and most highly esteemed gentle men In Augusta. Mr. Pinckney A. Steiner entered the real estate business with Messrs. Alexander & Johnson in 1904 and In 1009, when Mr. Johnson retired, the firm name was changed to Alexander Ar Steiner.

C.— An appeal for a new declaration of independence pleading fealty to the right, espousing the cause of intellectual honesty and the putting of principles to the pro duction of deds was made here yester day by Vice President Thomas R. Marshall. The vice president was the chief speaker at the annual celebration of the Mecklenberg Declaration of Inde pendence, which was adopted by the citizens of Mecklenberg county, North Carolina, in 1775, and is reputed to have been the first written declaration adopted for a separation of the thir teen colonies from Great Britain. Gov. Locke Craig, his staff, six com panies of the North Carolina National Guard, one company of the South Car oolina Guard and the Sixteenth Com pany, United States Coast Artillery from Fort Moultrie, participated in the exercises which included a parade and the reading of the declaration in ad dition to the vice-president's address. Grasps Her Hand. Mr. Marshall paid a tribute to the Scotch-Irish element in American life and referred to his meeting with Mrs. T. J. “Stonewall” Jackson, wife of the famous Confederate general, saying: “I have had the pleasure this morn ing, for the first time in my life, of grasping by the hand the woman whom ‘Stonewall’ Jackson believed to be the fairest woman beneath the sun. Do you think, as I looked into her eyes, that it was possible for me to have be lieved that ‘Stonewall’ Jackson was either disloyal, or a traitor? “I thing, of course, as a northern man, that he was mistaken, but, thank God, that Presbyterian was an honest man, and more than that, he had the courage of his convictions."

It was be cause of this feeling that all principals of the conference yesterday accepted unhesitatingly a dispatch from Mexico City saying that Huerta had himself confirmed reports that he was willing to retire if his resignation was neces sary to peace. Later it was learned that there had been an error in transmission and Huerta had not authorized such a statement, but this did not materially change the situation. It was evident that some such an nouncement was not unexpected. With the arrival at midnight of Eduardo Suarez, the Chilean minister, who had been delayed In his journey from Washington, the mediation con ference was ready to proceed today with Its personnel completed. “WREN'S NEST” DEDICATION.
