NEWPORT AND THE NAVY
CONSOLIDATION OF THE KSTAB-
LIsHMENTs ADVISED.

The New Establishments be Naval
School OF Application, Where on
GERS Shall be Familiarized With the
Needs Of War Times-Several Other
Innovations Recommended.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 9.-This afternoon
Capt. r L. Phythiau, president of the
board recently appointed to consider and
report upon the question Of consolidating
the several naval establishments at New
port, R l., submitted the report of himself
and his colleagues to Secretary Tracy. 1t is
signed by Capt. Ply thian, Commander w. R
Bridgeman, Lieut.. Commanders A. s. Snow,
and B. F. Liley and Lieut. j. F. Meigs.
The report says the board heard the state
ments of Capt. NOLAN, first commandant
of the torpedo station; OF Commodores
Higginson and Goodrich, at present in COM
nand of the training station, and OF the
torpedo station and war college, and other
officers at Newport; and of Admiral Luce.
CONSOLIDATION ADVOCATED.
The report then says:
The board believes that the best good of the
naval service at large will be reached by con
sodating the naval torpedo station and war
college aud naval training station into one es-
adjustment, TO be called the naval school of APP
plication, and to be under the command of an
officer of high rank, whose headquarters shall
be on Goat island, the present site of the
torpedo station and war college. At
this school of application the use, care
and tactics of naval weapons, and
of all other equipments should be studied
and practically illustrated; naval strategy, the
science of supply or naval logistics, should be
fully treated d, and in short. every means should
be exhausted in the way of both practice and
study to prepare officers as far as may be IN
familiarity with war.
SPECIFIC RECOMMENDATIONS.
The board makes the following specific
recommendations:
/. That $4,000 now appropriated for the war
college building on Goat Island be expended in
er. citing building that may serve for the new
school of application.
q That the proposed school be under the
bureau of navigation.
OTHER MATTERS REPORTED ON.
The beard was also instructed to report
upon various other matters to be investi-
gated at Newport, and recommended as
follows on those:
]. That the boys removed from the training
ship New Hampshire because of the epidemic
among them should go aboard again as soon as
possible; or if the ship be permanently in
fected. another ship should be sent to Newport
10 replace her.
2. That two small sailing vessels be built for
tenders to the training ship at a cost of 5000
3. That the gunnery ship Lancaster should be
attached to the school of application.
4. That there should be no further develop
ment of the manufacturing part OF the torpedo
station, and that the plant for the manufacture
of gun cotton be removed to some more suitable
place, because IL would be very liable TO de-
struction in case of war.

GOoDLOE Is A GONER.
The Wound Inflicted by Col. Swope
VIII Prove Fatal.

LEXINGTON, KY, Nov 9-This evening
an Associated Press representative inter
viewed DR.. Conner of Cincinnati, who said:
1--WE have just performed heroic opera
ton on Col. Goodloe. The operation
showed perforation Of the omentum and
bowels. Omental adhesions had already
formed and the bowel wounds were closed.
consider his condition very critical, and
think there is very little hope for his re-
covery."
THE PEOPLE STILL EXCITED.
The people are still greatly excited.
Assistant Postmaster Swift was talking 10
Col. Swope few seconds before the alter
cation began, and says he did not hear any
words passed between the men, although
they were only few feet away. He
thinks there was a tacit understanding
between them that the first time they met
alone they should fight. A man very close
to Col. Goodloe said TO the Associated Press
correspondent this morning that he knew
a fight would come about sooner or later,
but that it was not expected quite so soon.
1t would be hard to say who has public
sympathy, as there seems to be heartfelt
and universal sorrow for both families.
HAS ONE CHANCE IN FOUR.
LEXINGTON, Nov. Q, las P. Mn con-
versation tonight Dr. Conner told Mrs.
Goodloe in reply to a question as to the
colonies chances that There is chance
for him. If l had one hundred patients in
his condition and twenty-five got well, l
should consider myself very Fortunate DR..
Whitney said at 10 O'clock tonight: "Col.
Coodloe is in critical condition. If there
Is any change he has rallied slightly in the
last two hours" The hotel lobby has been
crowded all dav with persons anxious to
hear the latest from the wounded man up
stairs.
The members Of Col. Goodloe's family
are near his side administering in every
way possible to his wants. After the opera
ton the patient came out from the anasthetic
feeling weak, but perfectly conscious. His
temperature and pulse have not been high
enough to cause any uneasiness, but the
grave faces of those about the sick room
indicate the slender thread upon which his
life hangs

The 8, A. and M. Road Steals March

AMERIcUs, Ga, Nov. 9.-The Savannah,
Americas and Montgomery railroad stole a
march on the city council last night. For
some time Col Hawkins has desired to place
additional side trackage across jackson
street, in the vicinity of the Savannah,
Americas and Montgomery depot. The
privilege was refused by the city council.
Unusual activity about the depot last
night attracted the attention of
interested parties. About 2 O'Clock
this morning Marshal Lingo arrived
on the scene and found the work Of laying
the track across jackson street in active
operation. He had been ordered by Mayor
Fielder to stop the work, which he tried to
90, but the work would not stop, so to- day
the Savannah. Americas and Montgomery
has another track across jackson street
ana all is calm and serene.

BUR ROWS AT HARTwELL.
HARTwELL, GA, Nov. 9.-Hsrtwell was
thrown into a state of excitement this after
noon about 5 O'Clock by the announcement
that the notorious Rube Burrows was in
town. About four O'Clock slender m IN
about six feet tall, with reddish beard and
mustache, flushed face, and a hungry
couutenance, with double barreled shotgun
in his hand, stepped into James Z. SCOTS
restaurant and called for something to eat.
WENT WITHOUT EATING.
Before anything could be prepared the
stranger left the restaurant, and W. Y.
Car er, on seeing the suspicious looking
character, asked Marshal Carter if he knew
him. The marshal replied that he did not.
After the stranger had gotten out of Mr..
Carriers sight it occurred to him that the
man was Rube Burrows, inasmuch as he
filled the description given of Rube Bur-
rows a few DAYS ago. Besides, he had seen
Burrows before and recognized him some
what on reflection. A diligent search for
the man was made Immediately, but he
could not be found.

IN MEMORIAM.


In fond remembrance Of our beloved mother,
MRS. MARY REDMOND,
Who departed this life Friday, Oct 4th, In her
18th year.
It's hard to realize that she has left u.s. and
harder still Is it TO think we will never see her
more. Her life bore many traits of a noble
character, and a true christian. Always a duti-
full and loving mother and a true friend to all
she knew. In her last illness, when there was
thought to be hopes, she bad none. and con
SANITY prepared for death, and when the time
came for her to leave tns world, she was re-
signed to go, among her dying words being
those OF Jesus and Mary.
A precious one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled;
A place is vacant in our home
Which.never can be filed
God in his wisdom has recalled,
The boon his love had given;
And though the body moulders here,
The soul is safe in Heaven.
