There is fierce indignation among southern
Senators because Judge Woods is credited to
Georgia. They say Wood is really an Ohio
man. and that to evade the charge OF filling the
Supreme bench with OhiOians, Wood is nomin.
aztec as "Of Georgia" There was emphatic
talk about the Senate to- day. and more than
one Senator swOre he would vote to reject
Wood. simply because OF his being credited to
Georgia. The indications are that a strong
fight against Woods confirmation will be made

Right Rev. Dr.. Howe, p. E. bishop OF South

from himself to Senator Hampton and the

Senator Hampton speaks OF the impression
that In the correspondence above referred to
the Senator had plainly Indicated his readiness
to meet MIR. Sherman on the field, should he
demand such meeting, and adds: "Knowing

you at Columbia" Senator Hampton. In his
reply. says:-"You were entirely right In the
