Gov. McLaurin received telegram
from Sheriff Johnston of Yazoo county,
Saturday, informing him that on ac-
count of the quarantine regulations he
would not be able to remove Grandis-
son, the Yazoo murderer, to Yazoo City
for execution ON October 10, according
to the sentence Of the court Sheriff
Johnson therefore asked the governor
to grant Graudisson respite for thirty
days. The message of the sheriff was
telephoned over to the governor at
Brandon and he at once granted the re-
spite. The respite extends Grandson 3
lease of life until November 10 next, at
which time he will be taken to Yszoo
and hanged. The respite is simply
granted in order to prevent the senterce
of the court from lapsing and thereby
necessltating another sentence before
the prieoner could be executed, IN
which case Grandson would no. hang
for several months. The details of his

CONSUL MACRUM.
VIII Look After British Interests In the
TransvaaI During the War.


Washington. The state department
has been notified Of the withdrawal
from Pretoria Of Mr. Conyn9ham
Greene. the British diplomatic. agent
to the South African republic, and the
existence Of a state of war between
Great Britain and that republic. Mr..
Macrum, the American consul at Pre-
toria. has accordingly been instructed
to undertake the care of the British in
terests in that section during the war.
The notification came to the state de-
partment in the shape of a note from
Mr.. Tower, the charge d'affsires of
the British embassy here. The details
Of the transfer of the British interests
IN case of war had been previously ar
ranged, 80 that all that was necessary
was to dispatch brief cablegram to
Mr.. Macrum at Pretoria This officer
is the superior in rank to the other con
sular representatives of the United
States, not only in the Transvaal. but
in the Orange Free State, and he has
been instructed to give those officials
the necessary directions The only
consular official besides Mr.. Macrum in
the South African republic is Mr..
Gordon, who succeeded Mr.. Manion as
consular agent at Johannesburg, Mr..
Manion having resigned few months
ago.
In the Orange Free State the United
States is represented by Alfred Elliott,
consular agent at Bloemfontein. He is
an Englishman and therefore il is
questionable whether or not be will re-
main at his post in his capacity as
American agent or retire. In the lat
ter case Mr.. Macrum will probably Sc
lect some suitable American to take
up the duties Of consular agent.
There is no present intention at the
state department to issue proclaAa-
ton of neutrality. It.is customary to
omit these proclamations until some
emergency arises calling for their issue
and such an emergency is not expected
to occur in South Africa.

Sple who own property have the right

plans makes no difference whatever.

were voted in Mr.. Ryan's name at the
recent meeting of the Raleigh and Gas

road. Neither he nor anyone else can
prevent a plan favored by those who
practically own the several lines froni
being carried out.
