CHICAGO, March THE Times Herald to-
morrow will say: In the estimation of the
wheat trade everything will this week be
over Crete. There has been the idea that
the crisis would be reached Monday and that
because of the difference in time the specu-
lators at Chicago would know before the
market closed whether there was to be
war or peace. The chances are that Monday
will be one of doubt. The ultimatum ex-
pires at t O'Clock in the afternoon, which
would mean about a. m. Monday Chicago
time. But the prospect now is that the spec
ulator everywhere will be in doubt all Mon
day and possibly until Wednesday. The first
news the world will have of the impending
trouble in case Greece preserves her present
attitude will be the withdrawal of the am
bassadors from Athens. The cables say that
the admirals will await the official news Of
this withdrawal before beginning any cOer-
Give measures, and that they will not be able

matter how serious the cables become. Crete
has been furnishing excitement for Europe
for a great many years. Greece has threat
ened war in its behalf three or four times
within the past thirty years, and the news be-
ing printed each day is just like that
printed in 1866, 1868, 1877, 1878, 1884 and 1887.
The powers interviewed in those years; and,
although the prospects were just warlike,
no serious general trouble resulted. There
were the same incidents precisely, revOlts in
Crete, ruptureS of relations between the
Greeks and Turks, some fighting, a great deal
of alarm, anxiety on the part of the great
powers and fnally-quiet. The chances are
the same programme will be carried out
this time.
Accidents do happen, of course. Wars occa-
siOnally leak out. These are what the spec
ulators must bear in mind. If the chance is
one in a thousand, which is about the ratio,
the wheat trade must take it into cOnsidera-
ton. The short does not want to run even

ter's most jealous supporters and trust
ed lieutenants during the late cam
Paign for the presidency of the L. a.
w.
According to Mr.. POtters plan, Mr.
Gideon is to be retired from the board
and G. A. DimOn, captain of the South
End Wheelmen, Of this city appointed
as the Philadelphia member of it. 1t
is understood that in the event Of
Gideon not being IeappOinted chairman,
the present members of the board from
Chicago and Boston will decline to
serve another term, which will leave
another vacancy to be filled after Mott
and DimOn are appointed.

TO FOUND A NEGRO CITY.
A COIOred Mans Scheme to Rehabiii-
tate Il Deserted Town.

One Of the most novel negro coloni-
cation schemes yet sprung has Origi-
mated right here at Atlanta The per-
son at the head of it is no other than
the well known barber politician and
military captain, Moses Bentley. Bent
ley has his plans well under way and ne
will not take his emigrants to any far
away place in Africa or Liberia, bur
will settle them in Georgia, and will
do so at a small cost to those who fol-
low.
Bentley's scheme is unique in the
fact that he will found q city eXclu-
sively for the negro. He is to have
the ertire government conducted by
the people of his own race-a negro
mayor and negro councilmen, negro
policemen, and, in fact, as there are
to be no white people living within
the city limits every Officeholder will
be a negro. Then the laws are to be
the work of negro mental labor.
This scheme Of Bentley's is doubly
interesting, as he cOntemplates resur-
recting an old Deserted Village" re-
establishing a city which once -four
ished nearly a hundred years ago, and
which has literally been wiped off the
face Of the map. This was Sunbury.
the city which was located on the Sun
bury river at it's mouth in Liberty
county and on the seacoast. In the
year 1900 Sunbury was q South Georgia
"boom town." and it quickly sprang
into popularity, all the wealthy plant
ers of that section going there and
building beautiful homes. In 1920 Sun
bury had some $1,000 or $1,000 inhab-
itants and was considered a model city.
Ships came into it's harbOr and it was
regarded a commercial center Of no
mean proportions. But suddenly Sun
bury began to decline. 1t was sickly
on of "a
fed from the city as if plague hal
stricken the place. In a few years the
city was almost deserted And now
only three or four huts mark the spot
where once it f1ourished.
Bentley is to build his model negro
city on the site of old Sunbury. He
has ascertained that, while the white
people cannot stand the malaria in that
district. the miasma has no i'll effects
upon negroes. The land is rich and
can be bought cheap Tt can be made
a shipping point for the products of
the country for many miles around.
Bentley has recorded all these points.
Yes" he said, 81 have my plans
we'll under way. / have written to
the parties owning the land where old
Sunbury was once located, and 1 ex-
pect to hear from them in few days.
This is no wildcat scheme. | mean
business, and l already see the money
in sight for the preliminary work
have had this in my mind for several
years. I wish to show the world what
the negro Of the South can do toward
self-g government. L want to say right
here that we will have no worthless
negroes in our new city. They have
got to be industrious and of good char
ecter. / expect to have a city Of 5000
