Corner Stone Laid on the Spot
With Impressive Ceremonies.
ALBANY, GA, July 6.-Some months ago
A. w. Muse purchased tbe half-acre lot, cor
ner Of Broad and Front streets, upon which
stood the first hotel ever built in Albany.
A few weeks ago he began TO tear away
the old building for the purpose OF erecting
commodious warehouse. AS the ware
house neared completion Mr.. Muse
received cornerstone Of Geor-
gia marble, which he had
ordered from Atlanta, and to-day was set
apart for the laying Of this stone. AS it
marks the initial point OF the city, on the
south face Of the stone fronting Broad
street, is cut IN gilt letters: mo. / Broad
street, initial point Of the city OF Albany,

east side, facing Front street. is an inscrip-
ton: "a. L. 5891 j. S. Davidson, NJ. ".

PROGRAMME OF THE DAY.
The programme of the day was beauti-
fully carried out, as follows: At o'clock
u. m, the members Of the Albany Masonic
lodge marched from their lodge and
headed the large procession which formed
on Welch's corner and marched down Broad
street to the corner or the Muse warehouse.
A large platform was erected about the
exact point where the cornerstone was to
be placed. The ceremonies were conducted
by Hon. Reuben Jones Of Baker county, an
exemplary Mason. At the proper time,
Maj. w. II. Wilder deposited the
various relics, which consisted Of
the attest code Of the city Of Albany, a copy
of the Daily and Weekly Ne,Os and Ad-
rertlSer. copy Of the Macon Telegraph of
July 4. a business card of J. p. Greer, the
job printer Of Albany, roll of the mem
bers Of the Albany Masonic lodge, a roll or
the Albany Guards and several other me
mentoes. The beautiful white marble was
then put in place by the venerable brick
mason, Jno. Drinkwater.
THE sPEECHMAKING.
After the impressive Masonic ceremony
was over Hon. w. 4. Wooten addressed the
crowd. At the conclusion of his address
be introduced and paid Col. Tiff, the father
Of the city. fitting tribute. As Col. Tiff
mounted the stand his hoary locks and
smiling face awoke repeated rounds OF
cheering. The colonel went back to 1886,
and gave the crowd sketches of the
history of Albany up to the present. At
the close of his talk. Col Tiff raised his eyes
heavenward, and his lips trembled, and
tears sprang to his eyes as he said: "God
bless you all, the city, state and United
States"
Mr.. Muse deserves great credit, not only
for building one of the handsomest ware
houses in the city, thereby contributing
largely to the boom upon which sthe city
has been for months, but for bringing about
such happy occasion and SO beautifully

HEIRS TO A BIG ESTATE.

ATLANTA. GA, July 6.-There are three
heirs in Georgia interested in the DISPOSE
tion Of fortune of several million-dollar
estate of a relative in Scotland These are
Misses Eliza Freeman aud Marie Dinkins of
Atlanta, and w. G. Matthews Of Tennille.
When the story leaked out here to-day, it
was found that Misses Freeman and Dinkins
we're absent from the city on business per-
tanning to this estate. These are not the
only heirs. The estate is valued at over
$4,000, ,000
Lawyer Matthews of Tennille, said TO be
one of the heirs to the Diukins estate,
arrived here tonight. He professed to be
surprised at the current story Of his good
luck and rather discredits it, He says the
only foundation for it to his knowledge is
that the Dinkins family is wealthy in Scot
land, and has several branches in Georgia
and the Carolinas. Miss Dinkins and Miss
Freeman of Atlanta are sisters and mem
bers of that family. Mr.. Freeman married
their cousin. Notwithstanding his doubts,
Mr.. Freeman is now taxing a very lively

The Company Promised Protection by
the State troops.
SEATTLE, WASH, July 6.-The firm stand
taken by the Seattle Coal and Iron Company
has resulted in getting 100 white men, mem-
bers of the old miners union, to 60 to work
at Gilman. About fifty more will go to work.
The company has issued another call for
those who have given no dissatisfaction to
go to work. Those who know them
selves to be shut out are very
bitter and when the search begins
for concealed arms there may be trouble.
Mounted troops of the national guard have
been ordered from Tacoma. The hired
guards have boxed their arms and shipped
them to Seattle. Very few surrendered
have been by the strikers, and it is sup
posed that they have been smuggled out of
the camp and hidden. Col. Haines has no.
titled the company to remove all its armed
guards, as the constituted authorizes are
quite able to afford protection to property.
It is announced that the strike at the Black
Diamond mine is over, the men conceding
to the company the right to hire and dis
charge men, which is the main point OF
difference.

DREW ASK SD TO RESIGN.
Serious Omissions in His Reports or
the Keystone Bank

ku0 GASlSk bbuk.
WASHINGTON, July 6.-The correspond
ence between Controller Lacey and Bank
Examiner Drew of Philadelphia, which con-
cluded with arequest on July 2 for Exam
iner Drew's resignation, is made public.
On June 90 the controller wrote to Exam
iner Drew calling his attention to
the fact that IN his report of
Jan. "a on the affairs of the keystone
Bank, he Drew had omitted to mention
that on that date the Keystone Bank was
indebted on account OF clearing house GER
ti1cates in the sum OF S544, ,S5l, said in
debtedness being secured by pledge
of its notes and bills amounting
to S729.30S, which assets were then
held by the clearing house committee
and were not in the custody Of the bank.
"You will observe that this indebtedness of
1914 ,S51 is not stated among the liabilities
of the bank, nor is any mention made IN
either report or letter of this large indebted
ness, nor of the absence OF so large
a part of the assets" Examiner
Drew is requested to explain. His explana.
tion was that the omission was accidental
and occurred in copying from his retained
draft of the papers. A request for Ex-
aminer Drew's resignation followed, but has
as yet met with no response.

it is the greatest loss Baton Rouge has ever

Mrs. Jones, wife OF DR.. Thomas S. Jones,

Charlie Day was in his fathers drug store

was turned nearly upside down and timbere

HAYJrS TURMOIL.
The Section That Supported Hip

The Section That Supported Hip
polyte Turning Against Him.
NEW YORK, July 6.-The Atlas line
Jermie and other West Indian ports, brings
some interesting Haytien news. The AL
vena left Jermie June 20, and there were
then indications that the black republic
would soon be the scene of another
bloody rebellion. Jermie is in the southern
part Of Hayti, where Hippolyte possessed
his strongest support in wrestling the presi
dency from Legitime. At present, how
ever, that section of the island is bitterly
opposed to Hippolyte, and there are loud
mutterlngs against his rule. So strong is
the opposition to the present president that
an outbreak is apt to occur at any moment.
THE PEOPLE FLEEING.
Many Of the residents are so fearful of the
impending insurrection that they are leav-
ing in all haste The Alvena carried a
number of residents of Jermie to Kingston,
Jamaica, and. other fugitives are leaving on
every departing vessel. Second Officer Sea-
graves of the Alvena said that
an old resident of Jermie
who formerly occupied an important
position under the noVernment told hin,
that the present government will not last
long. The people are so constituted that it
is almost impossible for any form of gov
ernment to last long. An o Id Haytlen pol
itioian named Maybrant is secretly foment-
ing rebellion, and is locked upon as Hyp-
politics successor in case the president is
overthrown.
LEGITIME OUT OF THE RACE.
Legitime it is said, has no longer any
strength, and will not figure in any future
rebellion. Hippoiite is an Old man Of Is, and
does not appreciate the danger of his rule.
He knows his enemies are at work and is
bending all his power to crush them, but he
cannot reach the principal men. There
have been no executions by Hippolytes g
soldiers since the execution of six men re-
ported some time ago. There was no truth
in a report that Hyppolite was dead.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, July 6.-Among
the contestants for military honors here

with drawn knives and one of them slashed
him in the back OF the neck.
A FREE-FoR.ALL FOLLOWS.
Brown then ran into a colored saloon on
Kentucky avenue, when n gang of colored
toughs started out to make it free-for- all

as weapons. In this melee Cadets Edwards
and Williams were severely injured, and
Brown and Lynch colored) we're badly used.
The Cadets threaten vengeance before

further trouble
