A BATTLE WITHOUT ORDERS.
The Story or n Fight which General
Sherman. Does Not Remember.

WASHINGTON, January IA remark in
Senator Logan's speech in the Fiz John
Porter case, to the effect that battle Of
considerable proportions had been fought
in the Atlanta campaign without . single
order from the Commanding General, has
attracted some attention, and curiosity has
been directed to the Identification OF the
occasion alluded to. The fact seems to be
that the battle Of which General Logan
speaks Is not known in history by'a dis
tinctive name, but was one OF series OF
engagements before Atlanta, while sher-
man was moving on the rebel stronghold,
opposed at every step OF the way by a
stubborn enemy. When correspond
ent called upon General Sherman in
order to secure, II possible, from him a
reminiscence OF the occasion. Gen eral
Sherman said: l....-...
~ have not read General Logan's speech
in the Congressional Record and have only
seen such abstracts as the newspapers pub
lished. Undoubtedly the Senator is well
fortified with authorities for all his state
ments. / would not venture an opinion
upon his speech until I have seen it, as he
will finally have it printed, carefully re-
vised and corrected, in the Record, when 1t
will be open to criticism"
"Do you remember any distinct occur
renee such as he ic reported in the papers
as having stated? In other words, do you
remember battle having been fought in
the Atlanta campaign without an order
from you as TO lis direCtion?"
"No, l do not remember any special
battle OF that kind, but there were lots Of
days when we had hard fighting, and such
a thing, no doubt, happened, owing to the
circumstances under which we were oper.
ating. Our lines were about fourteen miles
long and we were constantly repressing
them. It was not necessary 10 give spe.
cial order to fight, because every officer had
instructions, had orders to fight every
chance he got. 1t was fight all the time.
Wherever corps commander met the
enemy he knew it was his business TO go
in. There was a constant order, so to
speak, to. strike head wherever it was
raised, 20 do not remember any specific
occasion where battle took place without
orders. There was great deal Of that kind
Of fighting. Nevertheless do not call to
mind the particular day to which Logan

TnE monthly report OF deaths for Decem-

mortality for several previous months.
This seems to have been due chiefly to an
increase Of typhoid fever and scarlatina,
The mortality Of the Sixth ward is un-
usually large, probably due to the pre-
Whence oil scarlet fever, which seems to
have got n hold in the lower part Of the city.
Thirty OF the iifty.six deaths outside OF in.

most one.half Of the total morality was OF

autumn months were unusually free from
sickness in the city, but it would seem from
the December report that we are not to
pass through the winter so safely as had
been anticipated. II scarlet fever is to be
prevented from becoming epidemic it will
only be by the application OF the most
stringent sanitary measures, such as the
complete isolation Of patients, strictly pri-
vate funerals, and thorough cleansing and
disinieCtion Of the rooms which have been

LOUISVILLE, KY, January 9.-vice Chan
cellor simrall decided an important sui
to-day. Atkinson & Blakemore brought
suit against the Western Union Telegraph
Company to recover damages for IN error
in the transmission Of message sent in
cipher from St. Joseph, Mo-, last June.
The error was in dissatisfaction ofSt. Louis
for St. Joseph. The translated message
read: "Can buy one hundred thousand
thirteen and half average winter shoul-
ders at $40. These are' bottom figures" +"
The change in the date.line caused delay,
and in the meantime the prices d provis-
ions went up and prevented the transac-
tion at the figures specified, tho plaintiffs
thereby losing the commission. The defence
set up was that the message was unrepeated,
therefore under the contract printed on
every telegraph blank the defendant was
liable only for the cost Of transmission.
The Vice Chancellor delivered lengthy
opinion in favor OF the telegraph company.

A AwindfaII for a BOSTON Man.

Bosrox, January 2.-ln 1906 certain
Denis Doyle, Of this city, disappeared. A
sum OF money belonging to Doyle was in
the possession OF the Court Of Chancery. 1t
was never claimed by him, and in 1916 was
invested in mortgages on Richmond county
property. 1t then amounted to $500. The
money, by an act Of the Legislature, was
subsequently turned over TO the treasurer
Of Richmond county to be kept in trust for
the owner or his heirs. In 1882 the money
had accumulated to $4,000, and Staten
Island lawyers became interested in the
matter. 1t being conceded that Denis
Doyle was dead a search was begun for his
heirs, and James Doyle, gardener and a
son Of Denis Doyle, was found in Boston.
He produced satisfactory proof as 10 his
identity and the money was paid to him a

THE DEAD STATESMAN.
A VOID LEFT IN FRENCH POLITICS
rha. WIN b. Hard to Flll-scsu.s In the Death
ChambsrsArrAngsmsAts for the Funeral.
The True Nature OF Gambstts's Ailment.
French and German Press Opinions. g

PARIS, January 2.-There is some idea oi
postponing Gambetta's funeral until the
10th inst, SO that the Senate and Chamber
OF Deputies may attend in body. 1t is es'
timated that 5000 persons visited the house
at Willie Davray yesterday. The people
were admitted by groups Of five or ten
into the hall whence they assembled to
small bedroom where the body is lying.
The visitors included Ministers, Senators
and other functionaries. The room is
poorly furnished. The body lies on
q small bedstead completely covered by
sheets except the head, which rests on two
pillows. The face is pale, the hair grayer
than formerly and the beard entirely gray.
Gambetta appears fifteen years older than
he really was. His friends seemed utterly
beside themselves, some aged men weep
ing. There were few flowers on the foot
OF the bed; otherwise there were none OF
the emblcms usualin France on such occa-
sions. A painter was seated at the foot OF
the bed sEetching the scene. Other artists
for illustrated papers were similarly occu-
pied in the rooms
The money Gambetta leaves principally
accrued from his newspaper. A cores
pondent who made tour OF Paris streets
yesterday, says there was real consterna'
ton in the bourgeois and trading quarters.
In the artisan districts there was a stern
Indifference among the groups OF workmen,
and one person was even exclaimed against
for saying the Republic had suffered agreat
loss.
A post mortem examination on Gambetta
was held in order to contradict the rumor
that his death was caused by bullet in
the abdomen. The corpse will lie in state
in the Rue st. Didier until the funeral.
Gambetta's Sister has gone to Nice to OBJ
tain the fathers consent TO permit a state
funeral. The Cabinet decided the funeral
should be similar to the funeral OF Thiers,
as member Of the Govercmento Of National
defense. Parisians have decided to close
their shops on the day OF the funeral.
The autopsy shows the death OF Gam
BETA was the result Of perityphilite pescOlite.
Any surgical operations would have been
dangerous and unjustitiable. No lesion
was discovered in any organs except the
intestines
The iurther details of Gambetta's death
state that he was impatient to see the end
OF the year, which he considered bad been
unlucEy for him. The body will be en-
balmed and removed to Paris to-day.
Gambettas fortune is estimated to be un-
der $50, 900 francs.
