UNsoLDIERLY BIcKERING.
A Lively Time In the First Terrific
rial Regiment at Albany.

Albany, Ga, Dec. 4-There were livery
times out in the camp of the First Terri
torial Regiment yesterday, and a clash
of no Insignificant proportions was precip-
itated between the officers and men OF
the command. The regiment Is made up
of companies organized in each OF the -FOUR
territories. and is commanded by Col M.
H. McCord of Arizona, who has served
that territory both in the capacity of Gov
ernor and congressional representative
and yields powerful influence in Arizona
politics.
The First Territorial Regiment Is reputed
to be one of the best in the service and
since coming to Albany it has become very
popular with our people. The officers APP
pear to be a splendid set of gentlemen,
and the enlisted men have always con-
ducted themselves in a quiet, respectful
manner while on the streets of the city.
The trouble in camp yesterday grew out
of a petition, for which the enlisted men
were responsible, begging the President to
order the muster out of the regiment. The
caption was drawn up and the first sigma
lures subscribed on Friday, and by noon
yesterday, $40 names had been added.
When the officers became aware that the
petition had been prepared some of them
endeavored to interfere and prevent 1t
from being presented to the President, and
that Is what precipitated the clash. Your
correspondent has Vt from
sergeant of the regiment that there
was a war of words for some time, and
that neither officers nor men were partic-
ular as to the language they employed.
The men declared that the officers desired
to remain in the service because they
were making more than they could ever
hope to earn at home, and were willing
to let the men suffer that their own selfish
interests might be advanced.
The officers gave "tit for tat" and de-
| clared that majority Of the disaffected
men were enjoying better living than they
had ever been accustomed to at home, and
were kicking without just provocation.
The men could not be deferred from
their purpose, however, and a committee
presented the petition to Col. McCord, re-
questing him to approve it and forward
it through military channels to Wash
ington. He refused to approve, but would
not disapprove 1t. He gave the men his
promise, however, that he would see that
| the petition reached the President. He ex-
| poets to leave for Washington in a few
| days on other business, and will personally
| place the petition in the chief executive s
| hands. The men believe 1t will have the
| desired effect.

VICTIM OF HIS OWN RESEARCH
DIR. VI. G. Doughty Dies of Consump-
ton Contracted in His Laboratory.

Augusta, Ga, Dec. 4.-Dr. Henry Camp
ben Doughty died during last night Of
consumption. He was but 26 years Old, and
leaves a young wife and infant son. He
was member of the faculty of the Medl-
cal College of Georgia and a surgeon, and
chemist of pronounced skill.
Though not unexpected, the death of
DR.. Doughty is a source of profound re-
gret to the community. The grandson ana
namesake of the late DR.. Henry F.
Campbell the most eminent surgeon of his
day in the South. DR.. Doughty inherited
much of the professional genius of his
distinguished grandsre.
He was elected 10 a responsible position
in the Medical College, and had an envia-
bic reputation as a skilled demonstrator In
anatomy 1t is a pathetic fact that he
was the victim of his own professional re-
search and scientific investigations. He
devoted himself with great zeal to the
study of tuberculosis, and in microscopic
study Of the bacilli in the laboratory he
himself became inocculated with the dread
ful disease and died of galloping consump-
tion, after a few months of hopeless i'll
ness. No young man of his age in his
profession gave fairer promise of great
usefulness or had already achieved more
reputation and his untimely death is a
loss 70 the community and the profession
as wen as a profound shock to his friends.

BANKER CLEWs' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook as Seen From
Wall Street.


New York, Dec. 3.-The general aspect
of affairs in Wall street has not materially
changed since my advices of last week
Transactions have been fairly active; and
prices have oscillated within narrow
margin of change. The local speculative
movement has been somewhat irregular
There have been days of realizing, when
prices have slightly yielded but the reac-
tions have been promptly followed by re-
coveries. London has been a good buyer,
and the large sales on German account
noted last week have almost disappeared.
One noteworthy feature of the stock mar
ket is the widening range of the stocks
dealt in. Issues which had almost disap-
peared from the market are now forming
a considerable part of the daily transact
tions; while, on the other hand, the well
established dividend-payers are passing in
to the investment list and becoming COM
paratively scarce. One consequence of
this interest in the minor and long neg
lected shares is a certain irreguiarity in
prices, which seems inconsistent with the
generally firm underlying tone of the mar
ket. Moreover, this is a season at which
a variable market is to be looked for. We
already begin to feel, by anticipation, the
Interruptions incident to the holidays.
December is usually attended with a good
deal Of selling intended to effect a lower
range of prices in order to get stocks
for the advance that ordinarily occurs at
the opening of the new year.

A SPIRITED ELECTION.

1t VIII BE Held in Albany To-day.
The Occasion.
Albany Ga. Dec. ALBANY will be the
scene of one OF the most spirited contests
tomorrow that has occurred in our munic-
ipal politics for several years. There will
be two elections, but a contest in only one
of them.
City Attorney D. f. Crosland is a candi-
date for representative from Dougherty
county to succeed the late Hon. W. T.
Jones' who died in Atlanta less than a
month ago. 1t is a foregone conclusion
that he will have no opposition, his being
The only announcement made up to the
present time.
The municipal contest is for three vacan-
cies on the board of aldermen, caused by
the expiration of the terms of Aldermen
H. A Tarner, j. C. Cassday and N. F.
Tiff Aldermen farmer and Cassidy are
candidates for reelection, and Messrs. A.
]. Lippitt, Samuel Weldon, Jr, and c.
Caffey have also entered the race. Mr..
Lippitt Is on the ticket with the two al
dermen desiring to hold over, Messrs. Tar
ner and Cassidy while Messrs. Weldon
and Coffey are going it alone. The contest
is going to be a close and exciting one.
Each of the five candidate has a strong
following, and all are among our foremost
business men. No man can tell to-day
what the result will be.
At its next regular meeting the City
Council will have to elect a successor to
the late Alderman H. C. Cox, who died a
few days ago Mr.. Cox was also mem
Der of the Board of County Commission
ers, and his successor Is also soon to be
chosen for that position.

Estimated from monthly returns.

ESTIMATED from monthly returns.
The total value Of London's trade in 1895
was 81 l23, 591, $50. New York's showing for
the same period was $S03. 321 $780, In the fol-
lowing year New York gained $137. $50 338
while London advanced only about S27 600 -
600. In 1886 the figures for New York were
s9'6Sss,2 S5, a decrease from the preceding
year. while London showed another slight
gain But 1898 has proved banner year
Exports of merchandise have advanced
fully $45OOO0,O00 a greater gain than has
been shown by any preceding twelve,
month. Imports of merchandise have not
advanced, but there have been heavy i'm
ports of gold to put the figures up. Alto
gether New York's foreign trade for 1898
will not be less than 81, 800. 100000 while
that of London is computed at 81, 2O2, 2O7, Si7.
Victory for the Whole Nation.
Although New York is thus raised to
honor and renown, the achievement is in
no sense local one. 1t is a victory for
the whole United States. a peaceful con-
quest in the domain of commerce in which
every section of the country can justly
claim share. The steel and iron indus
tries of Pennsylvania the cotton of the
south, the food products of Chicago, the
copper of Michigan, the wheat Of the
Northwest and the cattle from states be-
yond the Mississippi and the Missouri
have all contributed to swell the volume
OF exports to point never attained be-
fore, While the whole country has used
the manufactured goods brought from Eu-
rope through New York The metropolis
has served merely as the gateway of the
country
A brief examination of the figures shows
this fact very plainly. In the most pros
porous years between 1890 and 1897 our
exports exceeded imports by about 100000
600. In 1888 the excess reached che astound.
ing figure of over $6l5 10000. OF wheat
and wheat products twice as much was
shipped as in the preceding year. OF corr
100000 more bushels were sent abroad
Meat and live stock showed a similar gain
and for all of these the prevailing prices
were good
Although agricultural products formed
the greater part Of the increase there
were also notable gains in the realm OF
manufactures American locomotives have
been sold to an English company to rur
across Egypt. They have likewise beer
sent to Japan and China. Londons new
electric roads have been equipped largely
with American electrical supplies. Will,
everywhere in Europe American bicycles
and typewriters have made their way. AnC
when both domestic and foreign trad,
come to be reckoned in, both New Yorl
and Chicago are ahead of all EuropeaI
cities. The United States viii start of
on the twentieth century as a grea
manufacturer, as well as a great producer
of raw material and every succeeding
year will make American supremacy NOR,
secure.
In comparing the trade of London anC
New York it is interesting TO note tina
Londons heaviest footing is on the sid
of imports, while New York Is in ex
ports. The great liners and freighters sal
out through the narrOWs with their hulli
low In the water and every foot of spac.
crowded; they come back in ballast 81
