SAMPSON SOON TO BE RELIEVED.
VIII De Succeeded In Sea-service by
Farquhar or Remey.

WASHINGTON. September lat the
conclusion Of the Dewey celebration in
New York Admiral Sampson will be re-
lieved of the command of the North At
lantic Squadron.
This action Is to be taken at the re-
quest Of the Admiral, who has already
had much more than his proportion Of
sea service in his grade. After short
leave of absence he will be assigned to
shore duty, probably in command of one
Of the navy-yards.
In considering the selection Of his sue
cessor as commander-in-chef Of the
North Atlantic Station the Navy Depart
ment has practically narrowed the field
down 70 two names. 1t has been laid
down as the policy TO be followed that
the command Of fleets and stations
shall be reserved, wherever practicable
for the nine rear-admirals OF the first
grade. 1t has been found that Of these
officers who are not already on sea ser
vice. or about TO retire shortly, there are
three-Remey, in command Of the Ports
mouth yard; FarquLar commandant at
Norfolk, and Schley. president Of the re-
tirinc board. Farquhar has been long
est on continuous shore duty, and ii is In
dicated here that either he or Remey
will succeed Sampson

THREATENED STRIKE At CRAMPS
The Yard TO Shut Down for Eleven
Days at Least.
Ilndnlnhin Prs>ceN

The threatened labor trouble at
Cramps ship-yard will have no chance to
develop into strike for eleven days at
least Any such contingency was COM
pletely frustrated yesterday, when Presi-
dent Charles II. Cramp decided TO close
down the entire plant from September
1st to 18th, during the time of the Grand
Army of the Republic encampment
This action was not taken with an
especial view to blocking 4 strike, but
chiefly because the veterans generally
desire to inspect the works, ana the COM
pany is anxious to afford them every
opportunity to do so. Besides this, there
is a scarcity of structural material,
which will be greatly relieved by the
shutdown, and i'm addition to this the
Blacksmithing Department. is to be
moved into the huge new building erect
especially for this purpose.
That there is a chance of labor trouble
in the yard the officials do not deny
They declare most emphaticauy, how
ever. that no demand of any nature from
the workmen is now being officially con-
sidered by the company, or any one OF it's
officials.
A leading official said yesterday: 1.-THE
whole story Of this threatened strike is
Just this: For some months professional
labor agitators have been here trying TO

les. We have known IT all along. and We

North Carolina has at Raleigh q STATE

its character and purposes with the state
College at Clemson. 5. c. IL Is known
as the North Carolina College OF Agr-
culture and Mechanic Arts. and, as il
explained 'ft offers the youth ot the
State not only a thorough English and

themselves entirely 10 some one subject,
in which they need special training"
SO far the North Carolina school does
not differ from Clemson and other like
schools in the South But It has one fine
feature. which we believe is peculiar 10
it, or is shared only by another North
Carolina State college, and is set forth
rs follows:

Others, II prepared to enter and too
poor, will be credited for tuition ana
room rent. until they have earned the
money, which will not be long, as any
graduate OF the College OF Agriculture

No deserving boy is excluded from the

HARNESS. RACING
DARIEy RIOTERS FOUND GUILTY.
Trials Continuing Night and Day
Sentencing Deferred.

DARIEN. GA. September 1.-The jury
I'm the case against Ben Durham, james
Wylly, Marshall Dorsey. Louisa Under
wood. and Maria Curry. charged with
uoting, returned verdict Of guilty at a
late hour this afternoon. The jury was
out only about Is minutes. None Of
the rioters will be sentenced until the
end OF the session.
The entire day was consumed by the
Superior Court in the trial Of this FIRST
group Of the rioters. Twelve witnesses
testified for the State. The defence did
not introduce any testimony.
The proceedings Of the court were
monotonous, the witnesses testifying TO
the facts already detailed in the news
papers.
The evidence OF Mr.. r. A. Bailey and
Sheriff r. BlOunt established the fact
that they were deferred from taking
Henry Delegal from Darien to Savannah
by the presence and violent attitude OF
the negroes.
The afternoon was consumed in the de-
livery Of arguments by the attorneys.
The cases against Johanna Green, Moses
Miller Lawrence Baker, Josephine Byrd,
and Abraham Greene were called as
soon as the jury retired TO make their
verdict in the other cases.
The court is in session tonight, and
will continue 10 SIT day and night until
all the cases are disposed of. 1t will
doubtless be in session for nearly or quite
a week longer, as the murder and assault
cases are yet to be heard.
Riot, under the Georgia law, is mis-
demeanor, the maximum punishment De-
ing twelve months Imprisonment, or
81 900 fine or both.
