Should be Acquitted or Convicted.

:
Tho trial of United States Senate or Rich
ard r. kenney, which came to such an un.
fortunate end In the United States Cir
cult Court on Monday last from the fail
ure of the jury to agree upon vordic'. and
who were discharged. shows tho utter i'm
possibility OF twelve men to look Mt the
mntter in tho same light. 1t Is much to
be depIorcd that the jury did not reach
some definite conclusion either for ac-
quittal or conviction. While tho accu sa-
tion against Senator Kennoy was not
proven and he Is not as yot guilty in the
sight OF the law, the odium OF the trial will
atlend him wherever he goes until lie is de-
clared innocent or guilty. We cannot but
feel u sympathy for Senator kenney aud
realize that 1t was to his bes, interest to
have decisive verdict in one way or an
other. We also regret that when so much
time wns spont by both sides to Inform the
jury of all the particulars that they should
refuse to agree; but their will Is absolute
and they were out long enough to have re-
viewed every possible bit of evidence pro.
duced.
The most gratifying feature Of the case
to us Is the fact that the jury did not
divide on political lines; that they sll owed
themselves men enough to rise above par
tisan politics to give a fellow man the
most impartial trial ever held in this
State For this tho jury shonld be COM
monded-even though they failed to agree
upon verdict.
No one will dispute tho fact that Scra.or
KenDey was injured by the trial in the
sight Of the general public, but his friends
will generously give him tho benefit OF the
doubt and will stick by him. We believe
he will retain tho confidence Of his con-
stituents and will serve them wit as much
zeal and fervor as in tho past. Had the
jury returned verdict for acquital there
would have been some people who would
still believe him guilty and who would be
mean enough to slight the Senator on
every occasion po sble.
The Government will again open the
case at the September term Of Court and
it is hoped the jury then drawn will be
able to reach decisive verdict either for
conviction or acquttal. g

Welcome at Lithia Springs-To Be
Given Public Reception.

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 2.-Lieutenant
Richmond p Hobson, who has been
expected in Georgia ever since his ar
rival in the United States from San
tiago, Is with his mother at Lithia
Springs. The lieutenant reached At
lanta yesterday. and for several mo-
ments the naval hero was busy man.
He was kept shaking hands until each
individual had been saluted. At Aus
tell there was a call for the dlstin-
guished traveller to come to the plat
form. to which he responded
When the train pulled up at the sta
ton at Lithia Springs, where the mob
was waiting, crowd of guests from
the Sweet Water Park hotel had gath
cred to Join in the welcome. The
meeting between mother and son was
pathetic one. The son kissed his
mother, who threw her arms around
his neck, and for several moments
rested her head upon his. shoulder,
shedding tears of joy.
As she walked up the lane from the
depot to the hotel leaning on the arm
of her boy her face was eglow. The
hotel parlors were decorated with beau
tiful flowers. Flags were draped over
the portieres and the word Welcome"
made of green leaves. was spread over
the door. A string band furnished
music.
Hobson has not definitely arrange
all his plans and does not know just
how he will occupy his time prior to
leaving for Santiago or just how soon
he will return. He thinks now he will
go back via Key West. He is to pre-
side in New York next Thursday night
at meeting Of the Soldiers and Sail
ors' Relief association.
Mrs. Governor Atkinson. one of the
most active workers in the Army and
Navy League, telephoned Lieutenant
Hobson yesterday that the members of
the league were anxious to give him a
reception. The lieutenant responded
by saying that he would be most happy
to accept If circumstances permitted
1t. The reception, which will be pub
lie one, will be held at the governors
mansion tonight.

JOE WHEELER'S FORCES
Will Soon Be Brought From Santiago to tho
New Military Camp at Mon
tauk Point, L, l,

Washington. Aug. Am expert
mental movement of troops Is to be
made within few days from Santiago
to Montauk Point, N. Y. AS soon as
the necessary transportation can be
arranged for the main part Of General
Wheeler's division of cavalry, now at
Santiago. it will be brought back to the
United States. They will so into camp
at Montauk Point, and will be kent
there probably for some time. In the
healthful and invigorating climate at
Montauk the men are expected RAPIDLY
to recuperate from the results of their
hardships in Cuba.
The troops that are to be brought
back at this time have not been ex-
posed to the fever infection, and, thus
far, have suffered little from sickness,
II the experiment should prove sue
cessful. and should the troops improve
rapidly in condition, other parts of
General Skaters corps will be brought
very soon to Montauk Point.
AS soon as sufficient number of the
immune forces can be gotten to Sam
tiago properly to garrison the city
General Skaters men will be moved
back into the hills, where the sanitary
conditions are much better than they
are about Santiago. This movement
will be preliminary to their return to
the United States, where they can se-
cure suitable rest after the arduous
campaign In Cuba.
In addition to the first and second
immune regiments which have been
sent to Santiago as a garrison force
for the city, the third and fifth i'm
munes have also been ordered there.
As soon as transportation can be ar
ranged for them they will sail from
Savannah, Ga. 1t is not unlikely tina.
at least one other regiment will be sent
to Cuba at the same time. but the
designation of the regiment has not
yet been made.

Whether Spain shall retain possession
Of the Philippines as whole or in part

The reason for deferring the de.

this fashion is because the administra-

clear at this moment what sound pol

while, and until the commission has
satisfactorily disposed of the future
Of the Islands. the United States is to
exercise military government over
Manila harbor and bay. The COM
mission will be actually a peace COM

which will terminate formally the war
with Spain. However. suspension of
hostilities may be sooner declared
when the Spanish government shall
definitely accept the conditions above
laid down and renounce its authority
over Cuba and Porto Rico.

SCHLEY'S MODESTY.
The Victorious Commodore's Pretty Re-
sponse to Letter of Congratu-
lation From His Cousin.

Indianapolis. Aug. 2.-Shortly after
the great naval victory off Santiago, in
which Cervera's fleet was pursued and
destroyed by the American vessels of
war under Commodore Schley, Captain
John Schley. cousin of the commo-
dore, wrote letter of congratulation
upon the victory won. Yesterday he
received a reply, which in part Is as
follows:
"The victory was the joint product
of everyone fortunate enough to be
engaged, and l ought rather to thank
you in their name than to appropriate
the congratulations to myself. Surely
1t was large enough to win laurels for
all. and I assume no other pride in 1t
than the lucky place of this ship in
the line where the first heavy assault
was made, and afterward by her speed
and her. .directian-to keep in the scrap.
1.-The sweetest thought end the great
est satisfaction comes 1yom the fact
that our conduct that day has won the
peoples love and earned the nations
admiration. 1t is this which encour-
ages US in the public defense, no mat
ter at what risk to ourselves. If 1t
secures peace to our beloved land ana
permits us to return soon to our loved
ones and to our people our efforts were
well directed"

= Hong Kong. Aug. 2.-News has been
received here from Manila that the
other day the. American troops went to
the assistance Of the rebels, who had
been expelled. from their trenches by
the Spaniards. The latter retired be-
fore the American advance. The rebels
have been sheling Manila from four
guns on the south side of the city.
Admiral Dewey has received word
from captain uenerai August that he
Is willing to surrender so soon as he
can do SO honorably. 1t Is believed
that he will make only show Of re-
sistance. Admiral Dewey expects to
take the city without losing a single
man. Should Dewey and Merritt begin
the attack August will propose to
capitulate on the following terms:
The Spanish troops to march out
with the honors of war; the soldiers
and officials to be permitted to return
on parole to Spain, and an assurance
to be given that the lives and prop
erty of Spaniards will be protected
from natives.
The Spanish officer who reported in
Manila the destruction of Admiral Ger
vera's squadron was treated as
traitor and was threatened with death.
While riding near Malate the other
day General Anderson narrowly es-
capped being shot by the enemy. Con-
cerning Aguinaldo, q Manila corre-
spondent has written to United States
Consul Wildman here as follows:
II have not yet seen any reason to
regret your prompt action in sending
Aguinaldo here. Your wisdom In doing
so was contested at the time. but the
remarkable success of the rebel leader
has proved that you were good Judge
of human nature when you sized up
Aguinaldo's capabilities"
The friction between Aguinaldo and
his officers has reappeared. the latter
taking offense at his assumption of the
role of dictator. Mr.. Wildman declares
that his latest dispatches from Manila
say that Germans are now giving less
trouble. There was not much fighting
last week. The chief topic of discus
sion is a report that Lecarda, Aguin-
aldo's principal secretary, has either
deserted or been captured by the Span
iards.
When the French warship Pascal ar
rived at Manila the other day she neg

station.
