News of New Regiments Takes Poll
ticians TO Atlanta.

Atlanta. Aug. 15-This was the Gov
enor' = busy callers day. They came from
all parts of the state, some upon business
and others merely to pay their respects to
the chief executive.
Among the latter were ex-Gov. Thomas
G. Jones of Montgomery Ala, and his
three sons. Among the prominent Geor-
gia callers were Congressman Griggs of
Dawson and Bartlett of Macon and Judge
Henry of Rome. These gentlemen came
in behalf of friends TO have the Governor
TO appoint them 10 positions in one OF
the FIVE new regiments TO be raised for
service in the Philippines.
William h. Persons. I. II. Kennon OF
Atlanta and J. r. Holt of Newman filed
applications for captaincies. In addition
TO these there were large number of So
cial callers, including many ladies. The
callers occupied the time of the Governor
TO such large extent that he was scarce
ly able to devote his attention TO anything
else.

STILL AFTER THE CARTRIDGES.
Governors Order Was Not Enough to
Secure Them for the Rifles.


Secure Them for the Rifles.
Griffin, Ga, Aug IAN amusing con-
dition of affairs now exists between the
Griffin Rifles. the Governor, the acting
adjutant general and Clerk W. NJ. Thorn
as being disputants as to the rightful
owners of 1900 Springfield rife cartridges
Several days ago. in discussing the short
age among the state militia of ammunition,
Capt. Smith was informed that a large
number of cartridges was in the vault
of the clerk of the Superior Court and
had been there for several years.
When it was decided to have a rifle prac-
tice yesterday Lieut. Beck, at the COM
mand of Capt. Smith, called on Mr.
Thomas, who informed him that an order
from Judge Reagan would be necessary
to secure the ammunition. Judge Reagan
willingly gave the order. When Lieut..
Beck with a detail and a dray, again call
ed for the cartridges, to the utter surprise
of all Mr.. Thomas fatty refused to de-
liver them on the order.
Capt. Smith called on Judge Reagan at
the court house to ascertain why his or
der was turned down and was informed
by the judge that Mr.. Thomas had tod
his honor that he had demanded an order
from him just to get rid of the riflemen,
and that an order from the Governor
would have to be forthcoming before he
could deliver up the disputed property.
This seemed rather unnecessary TO Capt.
Smith, but he proceeded to the telephone
office ana informed the Governor of the
action on the part of Mr.. Thomas.
The Governor imme liatey wired Mr..
Thomas to Deliver to Capt. J. II. Smllh
of the Griffin Rifles. all military car ridges
in your possession" Capt Smith was pres
ent when Mr. Thomas received and read
the message from the executive depart
ment, and was boastiug of the lucky find
and how much better equipped the Rifles
were than the rest OF the state organ!za-
ton.
But the cartridges which have been
quietly resting in the vault at the court
house many years could not be moved so
easily, and TO the utter surprise and in
dignation of Capt. Smith even an order
from the Governor could not procure them.
Mr.. Thomas was seen in his office late this
afternoon and stated that it was unuGe
that he refuses to give up the property
when claimed by the rghtful owner. He
says II has been where it now is for nine
teen years to his certain knowledge. AMI
no one seems to have known of its where
abouts until recently. AS the Griffin Rifles
were not then in existence, it certainly
could not belong to them. He is positive
in his explanation that the cartridges will
be turned over to the rightful owners
when the proper methods are resorted to
and that he will thus be relieved of an I'M
necessary burden.

NOW POSES AS A MARTYR.
woodward Is Persuaded He Has
Been Greatly Sinned Against.

Atlanta. Aug. 15.-Mayor Woodward
there are any martyrs connected with the
city government. The Mayor was distinct
~ in evidence at his Office to-day attending
10 business, with a smile and the glad
hand for everybody. During the morning
he gave out a carefully considered inter
view as a sort of final to the story of his
jag talent:
The charges against me were painted
a hundred tiiaes blacker than they were,
and I had ali to win and nothing to lose
by an investigation. But the discussion
of these things hurt the city and might
hurt other people 1 can say this truth
fully, that if there was any martyr I am
that man.
IF an investigation had been under
taken" the Mayor continued, Il would
have demanded that my entire publis rec
ord be placed under the seaTchlight. 1
would have demanded of the committee
and Of the Council that my record as May
or of the city be investigated from the mo-
ment l walked into office until the day of
investigation, and I would have insisted
and SECURED a complete and thorough pub
lie urearthing of all my acts.
There has been a stubborn and persist
ext persecution brought on for ponticll
reasons and participated in oy my personal
enemies. There has been a tempest IN
the teapot all along, and the charges
which hsve been painted as back az could
be would have been dispeilcG by sworn
evidence.
IF : had not been in public life, and n
the charges tad been against fae as an in
dIgidual end not as a public official, l
would naVcr have consented or allowed
the matter to have been passed over rs it
5ns heen, but the city vas suffering from
the exaggerated statements that were be-
ing widely put in circulation and I am
Thoroughly satisfied that She matter has
been given the proper direction"

ANOTHER FIRE AT BLACKsHEAR.
Town Has It's Third Serious Blaze
Within Four Months.

Blackshear, Ga, Aug. 15.-For the third
time within the past four months Black
shear has been so unfortunate as to sus-
tain serious loss by fire. The entire block
opposite the railroad station and south
ward of it between the depot and the A.
p Brantley Co.'S buildings. was destroy
ed last night.
When discovered, the fire was under
strong Roadway and 1t was impossible to
control it before the buildings were burn
ed. Had it not been for the prompt and
efficient work of the citizens of the town,
however, the loss would have been much
heavier, as the Baptist Church. the resi-
dence of w. G. Mcmillan and the large
two-story building owned by the A. p.
Brantey Co and occupied by the Black
shear Times, Estes & Walker, and the A.
p Brantley Co, caught fire several times.
The origin of the fire is unknown. The
losses were as follows. A. n. Smith, build

sEABOARD REACHING FURTHER
To Build u New Line, the Chattanoo-

Atlanta, Aug. 15-The Seaboard Air
Line has started a surveying party from
Augusta to run line to its road at Athens
shortening the distance between Atlanta
and Augusta. Next week the application
for charter viii be advertised in each coun-
~ through which the road will run
The name of the line will be the Chatta-

a survey has been made from Augusta
TO Charleston. When this line was being
run various rumors were circulated about
it. Some thought the Louisville and Nash
vile was behind it, but ii turned out 10 be
move by the new owners of the Seaboard
There is reason to believe that the road
viii be built from Athens to Augusta and
on to Charleston. Between Athens and
Augusta there is some good farming terri
tory without convenient railroad outler
From Augusta to Charleston the territory
is not so good. From Athens to Charles
ton construction would be very expensive
Georgia would probably be willing to sell
the Northeastern. which extends from
Athens to Lula, thirty-nine miles.
1t is reasonable to assume that the line
from Athens to Chattanooga viii be the
last built. If the Seaboard should build
from Charleston to Chattanooga it would
have no friendly connection there for
Western business. Both the Southern and
the Nashville, Chattanooga and ST. Louis
would send all their business around by
Atlanta over their own rails to get the
long maui.
