Irish Battalion in India SuIk at
Critical Moment.

London, Oct. 29.-The Daily Chronicle
this morning prints a sensational tele-
gram from Bombay, which says:
There is much Speculation here as
to the reasons for the withdrawal of
the second battalion Royal Irish regi-
ment from Samana to Rawalpind
1t is asserted on one hand that the
men sul1ed at the critical moment and
refused to march further. On the other
hand Col. Lawrence says that two com
panies were at the front with the 9th
er troops on the day in question, while
the remaining companies We're retired
This latter statement is cOntradicted
from headquarters by the assertion
that the order was to advance and not
to retire. When the entire battalion
was withdrawn, Gen. Sir Yeatman
Biggs gave as a reason that it was sat
urated with malaria. A medical ex-
animation was demanded and develop
ed the fact that IS per cent of the men
were quite healthy"
Commenting on this dispatch, the
Daily Chronicle says
Evidently somebody has blundered,
and the cause is one that demands in
quiry. 1t is a singular fact that while
there are numerous Scotch battalions
on the northwest Indian frontier there
are only one or two Irish battaIions.

The Railway Officials Anticipate a Large

Still Seeking Information About Florida.

TALLAHASSEE, Sept. 1.-The Rail-
road Commission has fixed September
2oth as the date when they will adopt
commission schedules, rules and regu-
iations. 1t is proposed by the COM
mission to leave undisturbed existing
rates and schedules both passenger
and freight, with the exception of
rates on vegetables and oranges in
which there is slight reduction, but
to hear individual complaints as they
may be lodged and filed with the COM
mission under the rules.
Your correspondent finding so many
railway officials, representing such
vast investment of capital and inter-
ests in Florida at the capital this
week, could not refrain from inter
viewing them upon the outlook for
business for Florida the coming sea-
son. These interviews were published
in the jacksonville daily papers at
length, and it must be gratifying to
tie citizens of Florida to know that
the prospect for large volume Of bus
mess for the coming season is most
fiattering.
The number of immigration and
colonization enterprises for Florida is
steadily increasing. There has never
been time within the history Of the
state when there has been so great an
enquiry for information from every
section of the country.
Articles of incorporation of the
Trans-Peninsular Ship Canal have
been filed in the office of the secretary
of state, and letters patent for char
ter will be issued the latter part of
September. The capitalization of this
company is 81, 100000. Letters pat
ent have been issued to the James
Lumber Company at Apalachicola,
with capitalization of $50, 900; also
to the Havana Tobacco Company, at
Ocala, with capitalization of $1,000

Mr.. Barco Demands that Rusticus make
the Facts Public.

| To the Editor of the Banner
have always avoided newspaper
notOriety, and have no desire 10 enter
into controversy with anyone. but
| in your last weeks issue "Rusticus"
who is well known to me, attempts to
score Famine" and in his failure to
do so, assails my official character
which | cannot, in justice to myself
anu my friendsin Marion county, who
are legion, allow to pass unnoticed.
"Rusticus" in his criticisms on Fam
tines" remarks in regard to the re
duction of my salary says: "lf Mr..
Famine knew the facts in the case as
they have been given to me | suppose
he would have kept mum in regard to
this matter"
Now, Mr. Editor, the inference the
readers of this statement would draw
is that which Rusticus evidently in
tends to convey; that is, that he is in
possession of facts which my friends
and myself would like to have con-
cealed-kept from the public. Al
least this is my inference.
My conception of an officials acts,
whether county, state or national, is
that they are not the property of any
one man or clique, nor even his most
intimate friends, but properly and
legitemately belongs to the public--my
constituency. Therefore, in view of
this fact, in justice to myself, and in
behalfof the people of Marion county,
| demand that he make public "the
facts in the case or any other facts he
may have come in possession of. Do
this and enlighten the people as to
my official acts and let than decide the
matter. There are other statements
in Rusticus' article which ! desire
to notice in the near future, and will
do 50 when he gives to the public 1.-THE
facts in the case" as they have been
given to him. d. Nj. BARCO,
