Darien. Ga, Sept. 1.-The jury in the
cases against Ben Dunham, James Wylly,

Maria Curry charged with rioting, return
ed a verdict of guilty at a late hour this
afternoon.
The jury was out only about fifteen
minutes.
None of the rioters will be sentenced un-
I'll the end of the session
The entire day has been consumed by
the Superior Court in the trial of this first
group of the rioters. Twelve witnesses
testified for the state. The defense did
not introduce any testimony The pro-
ceedings of the court were monotonous,
the witnesses testifying to the facts as al
ready detailed in the newspapers
The evidence of Mr.. T. A. Bailey and
Sheriff T. b. Blount established the fact
that they were deferred Srom taking Hen
ry Delegal from Darien 10 Savannah by
the presence and violent attitude of the
negroes.
The afternoon was consumed in the
arguments by the attorneys.
Mr. w. G.. Charlton and Mr.. w. c.
Hartrdge of Savannah made mastery
arguments for the prosecution, while the
speeches of Judge H. D. D. Twiggs end
Mr.. R. S. Collins for the defense were
eloquent and able.
The defense based lis case upon The
theory that no act was done by the as
sembly of negroes, and that as there was
no evidence to prove that there was
common intent in the assembly, there was
no riot.
The charge of Judge Seabrook covered
all the points of the law on rioting, and
was quite clear and cohcise.
The cases against Jonas Greene, Moses
Miller, Lawrence Baker, Josephine Byrd,
and Abram Greene was called as soon as
the jury retired to make their verdict In
the other case
The court is in session tonight and will
continue to sit day and night until all
the cases are disposed of. Court will
doubtless be in session for nearly or quite
a week longer, az the murder and rape
cases are yet to be heard.

ing twelve months Imprisonment or 81 900

HONOR TO cor. cEsPEDEs.
Relieved He May he Put Forward
for President of Cuba.


Havana, Sept IA good deal of surprise
is expressed at the exceptional honors
shown Col. Cespedes by Gen. Gomez and
his adherents on his arrival in Havana.
This tribute is Interpreted as going to show
the truth of the earlier reports that the
Gomez party intends to nominate Cespedes
for president if Gomez proves unavailable
as a candidate.
Gen. Gomez Is deeply grieved at the re-
ported decision of Gen. Brooke, not to pay
anything more on the supplementary rolls
of the Cuban army. He declines, however,
to express a further opinion until he has
conferred with Gen. Brooke on the sub
ject.
The United States transport Ingalls,
formerly the Clearwater, will be converted
into gunboat for work against the pirates
along the seacoast and also to prevent
smuggling.
In a letter to the Discussion Manuel
Sanguilly says:
The census proclamation has been the
cause of surprise and dissatisfaction. The
first time the President of the United
States speaks to the Cubans, he speaks
with the most singing dryness. The proc
lamation is the greeting of friend rather
than the disdainful order of a superior.
'Cubans would have welcomed brevity
and even rudeness, if only the document
were frank and explicit Obviously it does
not refer even remotely TO the joint reso-
luton of Congress, which we had a right
to hope would be referred to, nor even
to the time when the military occupation
is to cease. 1t is obvious from the proc
lamation that the United States govern
ment has some plan, though IT is
not clear hat the plan includes TIE fdi-
filment of the JOINT reso ution."
Al a club where he spent last evening,
Sanguilly remarked 10 a friend that IL
there existed enc real Cuban leader, he
coud sweep the country for either pre-
tee crate or annexation.

THe Would Have IA Run for II.
New York, Sept 1.-The Cunard Line ,
steamship Campania arrived at quarantine
tonight at 1880 and was met in the Mar
rows by a flotna of tugs and the steam

The quarantine commissioners boat the

scene with a large party under the guid-
ance Of Commissioner Palmer The party
consisted Of Col. Tredwen, Gov. Roosevelts
military secretary who was sent by the
Governor to receive Sir Thomas Upton, a
number of officials and members of the
New York Yacht Club. and many others.
Sir Thomas received an invitation, ex.
tending the courtesies of hfty-six clubs,
while In this country, and an invitation
to lead the marine division of the Dewey
day celebration with his yacht Erin. Both
were accepted,
One of the first questions Sir Thomas
asked after the first greeting, was: How
Is the Columbian"
He then expressed the belief that tho
best boat would win, saying:
I'VE felt 1t a waste of time to come here
with anything but the best boat in Eng
land. She Is here now. The Shamrock
will do her best and we will try to do
better than some people who have been
here before"
When Sir Thomas came over the gang
plank, he was received with another great
cheer. He took off his cap and bowed,
and there was a smile on his face.
Upon my word / did not expect this"
said he as Messrs. Fife and Ratsey aud
a couple of members of the New Yacht
Club aided by several policemen, made
way for him through the crowd. "Is this
the way they welcome the men who come
to get the cup?"
You're all right, Sir Thomas" shouted
a voice.
I'm glad to hear that, by Jove I rath-
er think | will be sorry to take that cup
after al' replied Sir Thomas.
You'll get a run for your money"
| shouted a voice.
II don't doubt It," answered Sir Thomas.

SAMPSON WILL BE RELIEVED.
other Rear AdmiraIs to BE Given a
Turn at Sea Duty,

Washington Sept. 1.-At the conclusion
of the Dewey celebration at New York
Admiral Sampson will be relieved of the
comand of the North Atlantic Squadron.
This action is to be taken at the request
of the admiral, who has already had much
more than his portion of sea service in his
grade. After short leave of absence he
win be assigned to shore duty. probably in
command of one of the navy yards.
In considering the selection of Admiral
SIMPSONS successor as commander-in-
chief of the North Atlantic station, the
navy department has practically narrowed
the field down 10 two names. 1t has been
laid out as the policy to be followed, that
the commands of fleets and stations shnll
be reserved wherever practical, for the
nine rear admirals Of the first grade.
1t has been found that of these officers
who are not already on sea service, or
about to retire shortly, there are three
names Remey, in command of Ports
mouth; Farquhar. cornmandant at Nor
folk, and Schley. president of the retiring
board. Farquhar has been longest on
continuous shore duty, and it is indicated
here that either he or Remey will succeed
Sampson.
