NEWFOUNDLAND AND ROUNTREE.
The Encounter in New York Causes n
Sensation at Atlanta.


Atlanta, Ga. May 2O.-The sensational
encounter between Dr. Willis F.Westmore-
land and Daniel w. Rountree in New York
last week. when Dr. Westmoreland slapped
Mr. Rountree's face in the lobby of Abb
beys theater, has been the cause of a
great many sensational reports here to-
day. The affair has monopolized gossip
and speculation, the professional and So
cial positions of the two men being such
as to make it OF a serious portent. A tele-
gram this afternoon from New York stat
ed that Or. Westmoreland and Mr.. ROun-
tree had had a second fight on Broadway
this afternoon, in which both fought like
mad men. tearing each other horribly. No
confirmation of the report could be had,
however as the family and friends of both
have been unable to reach them by tele-
graph. Another report was to the effect
that DR. Westmoreland and Mr.. Rountree
had fought duel on Long Island this
morning, and that DIR. Westmoreland was
wounded which accounted for the ina
bilhy OF friends TO get into communica-
ton with either since last Saturday night.
Late tonight word was received that
Dr. Westmoreland was I'm Washington to-
day and may be home tomorrow. The
story of the Broadway fight to-day Is also
denied.
The trouble between DIR. Westmoreland
and Mr.. Rountree dates back two years.
1t grew out of a business transactions
which brought on newspaper contro-
versy. This became so bitterly denuncia-
tory that peace warrants were sworn out
for them and both were put under bond
to keep the peace, DIR. Westmoreland In
$780, and Mr.. Rountree in $500. They
he to
came together in Abbeys theater, where
the face slapping occurred.

DIR. HOPKINS RESIGNS. d
He Wants to Leave the SchOoI-RoOm
10 Return 20 the Pulpit.

TO Return TO the Pulpit.
Atlanta, Ga. May 2O-Dr. 1. S. Hop
kins, who has for six years been president
of the Georgia School of Technology. has
rendered his resignation to the board of
trustees to take effect at the end of the
present term.
The letter bearing DR.. Hopkins resig-
nation was submitted to the board of trlls-
tees at a meeting held last Thursday. but
by express agreement of the trustees,
who hoped TO induce him to reconsider
every effort was made to keep the fact
from the public. The board of trustees
refuse to accept the resignation, and the
matter goes over to the next meeting of
the board on June %.
DR.. Hopkins was president Of Emory
College when called to the archaeological
school. He had long been active in the
ministry of his church, and his reason
now for desiring to leave the technologi-
cal school, where he has done a great
work beloved by those associated with
him and highly esteemed by the state. is
that duty calls him back to the ministry
again.

Macon, May 2O-After the recent base
ball game between the teams of Mercer
University and the University of Georgia,
the students of the University of Georgia
adopted resolutions rejecting on the man.
agement of the Mercer team. Friday the
Mercer Athletic Association adopted res
olutions expressive of its sentiments re-
specting the students of the University of
Georgia, and stated some facts bearing
upon the game. One resolution is as fol-
lows: I'VE desire to state that we feel
that we have been grossly infused by the
Athens men, I'm that they should have as
scented to the playing of the Mercer team
as made up, and then denounced us for
not adhering to an agreement which was
previously made, and which was, by their
express consent, abandoned. They know
of a truth, that there was not a profession
al on the Mercer team, and any statement
they make to that effect is made with a
full knowledge of its utter falsity."
