The Resolute, which was also ordered

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 14-Presldent
Mckinley made memorable the frst
day OF the Atlanta peace jubilee by a
notable utteranoe in his speech before
the joint session OF tho Georgia legIs-
lature this afternoon. HIS reception by
the general assembly was warm and
hearty In the extreme, and his speech
was punctuated with frequent OUT
bursts Of cheering. 1t Is admitted on
all sides that the address marked an
epoch In history and tonight is on
every lip.
During the course of his speech, Air.
Mckinley referred often to his notes,
and constantly paused for the cheers
10 stop. a scene Of intense enthusiasm
followed, when, amid Impressive silence,
these words fell from the lips Of the
President:
Every soldiers grave made during
the unfortunate civil war Is a tribute
10 the American vaior And while,
when these graves were made, We dlf-
fered widely about the future Of the
government, those differences were long
ago settled by the arbitrament OF arms
land the time has now come in the
evolution Of sentiment and feeling un-
der the providence OF God, when. in
the spirit OF fraternity we should share
with you in the care of the graves Of
the Confederate soldiers"
A Wild cheer went up from every
throat In the typical southern audience,
q cheer that echoed and re-echoed
through the chamber until It was Ia
ken up by the crowds outside. Old
men, who fought for the South, rose
from their seats and waved their hats

made to the Confederate dead, this old

while the cheers rang out, cried like q

or all the many concillatory speeches
which have been made since Grant said
LET there be peace nothing has more
deeply stirred q Southern audience than
the simple words OF President Mckinley
this afternoon.
No sooner had President Mckinley
concluded before there were loud cries
for Wheeler, and when that little mar
got up, his head scarcely higher than
the speakers desk the audience once
more gave vent TO wild enthusiasm.
General Wheeler referred euloglstically
10 the Efforts OF the President toward
preserving peace as long as the coun-
try's honor would permit such efforts,
and Of his mnsterful policy after war
was Inevitable. General Wheeler paid
tribute to Admiral Dewey, and add
ed: 'grhe army, In conjunction with
the navy, was ordered to attack and
destroy the Spanish forces at Santa
70. In four weeks that order was
obeyed and It's purposes accomplished.
The proud Spanish nation stood suing
for peace from the nation which
month before 1t had held up to scorn
and ridicule."
