TWO HOUSES AT TYBEE BURNED
Nathaniel Jones, CoIOred. Suspected
OF Having Fired Them.

Nathaniel Jones, CoIOred. Suspected
OF Having Fired Them.
The houses Of Thomas Ryan and VIII
liam Campbell on Tybee Island were
burned yesterday morning. The houses
were unoccupied and it is believed that
the fires were of incendiary origin.
Nathaniel Jones, the colored Waterman,
has been arrested on suspicion. He was
arrested by Marshal Maybe on a warrant
sworn out before Justice Warning Russell,
Jr, and was brought up to the city on
the noon train and sent to jail.
There does not appear to be any positive
evidence against Jones, but his actions
at once subjected him to suspicion. He
was found a Estill, at the northern end
of the island. He claimed that he left
the house about 5 o'clock TO come up to
the city to get some money from Mr..
Ryan. He went to Estil. expecting to
get a boat there and was trying to get a
boat with which to leave the island when
arrested. He said that he saw the smoke
from Estn. but thought that the fire was
an the woods.
Suspicion attached to Jones Immediately
after the fire was discovered, the fact
that he could not be found during the pro-
gress of the fire first attracted suspicion
to him. His statement that he had gone
TO EstiI with ehe intention of coming up
to the city by boat was regarded as an
other evidence of guilt as he could have
reached the city sooner and with less
expense by waiting for the train than by
taking a boat.
News of the fire was telephoned to the
city and Mayor Butler at once secured
a special train from Superintendent
Saussy, and in company with Aldermen
Lowell and Kehoe, went down to the is
land. where they have remained all day.
They found the people very much excited
over the fire and threats We're made OF
lynching Jones. Both houses were en-
tirely destroyed. The loss is about 81, O0C
each. Both parties are believed to have
been insured

McKINLEY's RECEPTIONS.
There VIII be Two This Week in His
Honor at ThOmasviIIe.

Thomasville. Ga, March 1e.-The coming
of Gov Mckinley to Townsville is
made the subject of a good deal of polit-
ical gossip, but as far as can be learned
here it has no foundation.
Cards have been issued for a reception
in honor of Gov. and Mrs. Mckinley next
Tuesday evening at the home Of Hon.
Mark A. Hanna. Another and more gen
eral reception will take place on Wednes-
day evening in the parlors of the Mitch
ell house. While most of the residents of
Thomasville differ with Gov. Mckinley
in some of his political views, they recog-
nize in him a gentleman of the highest
order of integrity and intellect and will
show him the honor due his distinguished
abilities.
Gov and Mrs. Mckinley are being en-
tertained here by the Hon. Mark A.
Hanna and his wife at their elegant win
ter home on Dawson street. The know
ing ones says that If Mr.. Mckinley should
be the next president, Mr.. Hanna is slated
for his premier.

Inspector General Spencer Sets Him
self Right in Respect 10 An Inter-
view.
Trenton. N. J., March 1S-Editor Morn
ing News: My attention has been called
to an article in the Washington Post pur-
porting to be an interview with Col. A. r.
Kuser OF New Jersey and myself on our
return from savannah, which article was
copied in your esteemed paper of recent
date.
1t goes without saying that newspaper
interviews are more often incorrect than
accurate with due apology for the asser-
ton) and in this case, while the article IS
only partly true, 1t is liable to mlslead,
particularly in the closing paragraph,
where reference Is made to the lack Of fair
ness in rifle contest on other ranges than
Sea Grit
What 1 did say was. that the reason why
the National Rifle Association of Amert-
ca held its contest, for the Soldier of Mara
thon and for the Hilton trophy on our
range at Sea Grit, was because 1t had
been charged that in the past the manage
ment of Creedmoor had not always been
fair to competing teams. My own
experience does not pear out
the charge, New Jersey having al
ways received courteous treatment at
| CredmOr But several states had re
fused to enter the Credmor contests
| and the great interstate matches were in
a state of innocuous desuetude when the
National Rifle Association applied to us
to hold the contest during our fan meet
| ing. This is the interview as l remember
| II.
Whether our mana cement and the treat
ment of the visiting teams is fair and
/ courteous l must leave them to answer.
/ We do our best and permit nothing but
! fair and honorable treatment TO all.
Pardon this epistle. but l would not
| for one moment have a single Georgian
| think that / so far forgot the magnificent
Hospitality Of abe Hussars and their
! friends as to cast the slightest re1ec-
/ ton on the gallant soldiers Of your state,
and this is my excuse for appearing IN
/ print in your paper The proverbial hospi-
| tality and the time-honored courtesy of
the sons Of Georgia We're mot in it, with
the daily and hourly courteous atten-
! ton and evidences of friendship displayed
/ by the men and women of Savannah dur
ing our recent stay there. Such Compel
itors as your townsmen could not do an
unfair thing If they tried, for they don't
know how 80 say We all of us"
Bird W. Spencer,
Inspector General of Rife Practice.
