WHITE WILL DECLINE.
And Senator Gray May Be Peace Com
missioner.

Washington, September 6.-Secretary
Day probably will not resume the discharge
of the functions of Secretary of State, and
it may be assumed that his connection
with the Department, save in the capacity
of peace commissioner, terminated when
he left Washington for Ohio recently.
Upon his return to Washington, it is ex-
pected that he will come to the State De-
partment for the purpose Of bidding fare
we'll to the employees.
There is no longer reasonable doubt
that Justice White has decided to decline
the appointment of peace commissioner
and that he refrains from making public
announcement of his purpose at the request
of the President.
In the event of the declination of Justice
White, rumor has it that the President has
Senator Gray, of Delaware, under consid-
Grafton for that place.
Later.-It may be said positively now
that Justice White has finally declined the
tender of membership in the Spanish
American Peace Commission. In the
same way it is now understood that the
vacant place on the commission has been
offered to Senator George Gray, of Della
ware, one of the leading Democratic MEM
bers of the Senate and member OF the NIL
nority Of the Foreign Relations COMMITTEES.
While the Senator has not definitely indi-
Gated his acceptance of the peace commits
sionership, it is regarded as not unlikely
that he will finally be the fifth member OF
the commission.

BIG PRIZE MONEY.
Sum to be Distributed Among American
Sailors.

New York, September 5.-A dispatch
to the Herald from Washington says:
At least 81 900, 900 prize money will be
distributed among the American sailors as
es a result of the war with Spain. More
than half of this sum viii be paid in ac-
cordance with the law providing for the
payment of bounty for persons on board
vesselA of war sunk in action. The re-
mainder will be turned into the treasury
for distribution by the courts, which will
pass upon vessels of the enemy captured
by American men-of-war.
Although not penny of prize money
he's yet been turned into the treasury
Judge-Advocate- General Lemley and his
chief clerk are engaged in considering the
various claims which have been filed by
officers and men during and since the war
and in passing upon the various questions
which have arisen in connection with such
claims. From the official report Of Ad-
miral Montejo, commanding the Spanish
fleet sunk at Monilla, there were 1875
persons on board the ships under his COM
mand The Spanish fleet WAS inferior in
force to the American squadron, and Rear
Admiral Dewey's men will, therefore, get
only 500 for each person.
1t is estimated that the aggregate amount
due the Asiatic fleet as result of the de-
struction Of the Spanish force amounts to
$1S7, 800, which Congress will be asked to
appropriate during the coming session.
One twentieth of this sum belongs to Rear
Admiral Dewey as commander-in-c chief,
and he will, therefore, be $9,975 richer

THE YELLOW FEVER.
The Quarantine Regulations Some
False Alarms.

Jackson, Miss, September 5,-The city
af Jackson has established strict quaran-
tine on all clases of traffic against New
Orleans. No trains on the Illinois Central
Railroad are allowed to stop within the
city limits.
The suspicious fever reported from the
Bear creek neighborhood in Copiah
county has been investigated and found to
be of malarial type. One suspicious case
is reported at Meridian and is being inves-
tigated.
Montgomery, Ala, September o.
Pending the investigation of the reported
suspicious cases of yellow fever at New
Orleans, Montgomery has put on Quaran-
tine against that city.
New Orleans, September 5.-Dr. Carter
of the Marine Hospital Service, arrived
today from Franklin and went to see the
two cases which DIR. Dunn. of Mississippi,
thought were yellow fever He had no
hesitation in saying that one Of the cases
was by no means yellow fever. The other
case will be studied fully there being
doubt concerning it, and he may an
nounce decision tomorrow. The local
experts are firm in the belief that neither
CdS6 lS lellOM lCtSi dllu nave Iull COIlI-
dence that their decision will be maintain
ed.
The Mississippi towns along the Gulf
coast have refused to join in the vigorous
quarantine established by that State and
have announced that they will maintain
daily communication with New Orleans
Mobile, Ala, September 5.-The Mobile
Board of Health today, were advised that
the State of Alabama would declare quar-
qntine against persons and baggage from
New Orleans until the suspicious cases in
New Orleans are pronounced upon. State
Health Officer Sanders advised Governor
Johnston, who is now here, to the same
effect, and the governor this afternoon
issued proclamation declaring the quar-
antine.
Meridian, Miss, September 5.-Two
suspicious cases are under surveillance
seven miles west Of this city. They are
negroes who came to Meridian few days
ago and were taken sick with fever few
days after they arrived. DR.. H. S. Gully,
member of the State Board of Health, has
the cases in charge awaiting developments.
A strict quarantine is being enforced by
the State of Mississippi against New
Orleans.

TO LAND AT MONTAUK.
General Miles And Troops From Porto
Rico.

New York, September 6.-General
Shafter has been informed unotticially that
four transports with troops from Porto
Rico will, upon their arrival off New York
be directed to disembark at Montauk
Point the regiments they bring. General
Shafter has also understood, unoficially
that the OLDHAM and Mississippi are two of
the troop ships, and that the four vessels
alluded to are due to reach Montank
Point on September 7th and Sth.
1t has been understood as having been
ordered by the War Department that
none of the troops that have been in Porto
Rico were to 60 to Montauk Point, but
that all should land in New York and go
to their homes or posts from this city. No
one whose opinion is valuable hazards an
explanation of the change Of the Secre-
tary of Wars design.
The OLDHAM brings General Miles and
his staff and nine companies of the Second
Wisconsin, 28 officers and about 800 men.
1t is surmised that should General Shat
ter's unofficial information turn out to be
official, the Chester, with Generals
Schwan and Hains and their staff and
forty-one officers and 7l5 men of the
Fourth Pennsylvania will be sent to Mon
tauk Point.

county, Mr.. ]. Fl. Meade, went quickly
upon the stand and placed himself between
the rival candidates where he remained
until the confusion was over. In the
meantime fight had commenced in the
gallery, occasioned by the disrespectful re-
mark of fresh young Democrat about
Gen. Walker, which was promptly resent
ed by young Republican who smacked
the young Democrat right smartly, If re,
ports be true. When order was restored
Judge Rhea came to the front and stated
that he did not mean to apply the remark
to Gen. Walker, as the General had given his
authority. This satisfied Gen. Walker who
did not intend that it should be thought
that he had permitted Rhea by indirec-
ton or otherwise to call him liar.
Judge Rhea concluded his rejoinder and
Gen. Walker again took the stand for his
concluding speech. Neither of the rejoin-
ders were equal to the opening speeches.
They were mostly composed of retorts and
not arguments. Gen. Walker concluded
the discussion with question to Judge
Rhes. 1t was in substance as follows:
"Are you willing for the Republicans of
the several counties of the Ninth Congress
eional district to select the Republicans
who shall act as judges of election at the
precincts in their counties, and are you
willing for the Republican judges of elec-
ton to mark the ballots of Republican
voters when requested to mark them?"
Judge Rhea replied that was matter for
the electoral boards to determine, that he
had nothing to no with it. Gen. Walker
said repeat the question, and did repeat
it. Then Rhea rose to his feet and said;
"It is Democratic law and am in favor
of Democrats administering it." or words
to that effect.
Thus closed one of the most exciting po-
ltical discussions we have ever listened to.
The friends of both parties claim victory,
but from our standpoint we pronounce it
great day for the Republican party in Rus
sell county and in the Ninth District. We
have never seen man smart and twist as
Rhea did while Gen. Walker was hammer
ing him in his opening speech. Disap-
pointed in his efforts to bluff or excite the
splendid old Confederate hero, RLea
writhed under the scornful shouts of the
gallant Republicans who witnessed and en-
joyed his humiliation. We have never
seen more gallant band than the Repub'
licans Of Russell county who stood by their
candidate and leader on Tuesday. They
had the crowd, they had the best of the
discussion and they were happy.

Added to the Navy.

Washington, Sept 6.-The Spanish
gunboat Sandoval has been added to the
American navy. This vessel was at Guam
tanamo when Santiago was surrendered to
Gen Shafter, and when news of that event
was received at Gurtanamo the Spanish
warship was scuttled at her anchorage.
Since then efforts were made to raise the
sunken craft from her bed of mud, and a
report received at the Navy Department
from Commodore Watson says that the
efforts have at last been successful and
that the Sandoval is now afoat, in COM
mand of Lieutenant Anderson of the
Marblehead. Commodore Watson also
said that the Marblehead would start
from Guantanamo Immediately for
Boston.

Explanation.

The State board of education, whose
duty it is to select public school books
every four years, as rule meet and COM
plete their work in the Spring. This year
it was nearly the first of August before
they finished. The county board then had
to make its selections from the list adopted
by the State board They had long list
of books to examine and compare. 1t was
very near the first of September before
their work was complete, leaving too little
time to get in the books from the many
different publishing houses whose books
were adopted by the time school opened.
Those who sell books here say they are all
ordered and should be here this week ii
shipped promptly.

TAZRwELL HIGH SCHOOL

Never in the history Of the institution
have prospects for good school been go
apparent as in this, the twenty-tifth open
ing of Tazewell High school. The school
opened with one hundred and seventy
nine pupils. An increase of one hundred
and seven or nearly 100 per cent over last
years enrolment, and large increase over
any past opening.
The large incl ease is in the High School
department. There are about twenty
boarders and many who ride in from the
country. Last year there were only
eighteen who studied Latin, and this year
over forty have already taken up this
study.
While the attendance is larger than ever
before it was not unexpected by Prof.
ByEEes4sz.-He has added another teacher
and as result Of his representation the
school board has erected large and COM
modious hall to be used as study and
recitation room. One hundred more
pupils can be comfortably accommodated.
The new hall is just completed, or suf-
ficiently go to be used. 1t handsome
addition to the school property, fronting
on Marion Avenue Al feet and extending
back 65 feet. The outside work is COM
pleted. The inside is oil finished, and
plastered, with black boards extending
the full length of both sides of the build
ing. The desks will be of the latest i'm
proved type.
The faculty is composed of Prof G. L.
Byron, principal, Latin, Greek and
English; Mr.. Jno. S. Poindexter, mathe-
matics. science and German; Miss Mamie
S. Francis, French, history, intermediate
department. Miss Ella Bowen intermediate
department; Mrs. Reba Ball, primary
department; and Miss Alice Alexander,
music.
A new feature adopted by the board of
education is charts for primary depart
ments. These charts have been ordered
and are expected daily.
Another valuable addition to the school
is good library. A library in any pre-
preparatory school is almost indispensable.
