TO CARE FOR THE VETERANS.

The ENQUIRER has bad frequent
inquiries as to what accommodations
may be expected at the Charleston re-
union for such old veterans as may
not be provided with an abundance of
funds. We have letter from Mr.. r.
]. Morris, chairman on Confederate
Hotel, containing the assurance that
the veterans to be sent down by THE
ENQUIRER will be taken care of, and
the following from the Sunday News
of April 80, contains information that
will be agreeable to others interested:
"At three places at least, along the
water front, there is unwonted activity,
and it is all on account of the coming
reunion. To begin with, at Boyce's
south wharf and Adger's north wharf,
two large cotton warehouses are be-
ing fixed up for the accommodation OF
visitors, and particularly veterans.
This dormitory will be known as the
"Reunion Hotel" and huge sign, to
stretch clear across East Bay street and
| lighted with dozens of electric globes,
will clearly indicate its whereabouts.
The dormitories will accommodate
about 1000 men, and will be provided
with comfortable cots, each one of
which will have pillow, two. sheets
and a pair of blar iets. One of the
buildings is large enough to accommo-
date about 700 dodgers, and the other,
two-story warehouse, will comforta-
bly, quarter about 300. All of the
places are clean, dry and well ventila'
ted. If the weather is fine, such as
Charleston hopes to have, the large
doors and windows will be open and a
fine breeze from the sea will make
everything comfortable. If, however,
the temperature should be unseasona.
bly, cool all of these openings can be
closed and ample light and air secured
from the skylights. At night the dor
mitories will be lighted by hundreds Of
incandescents.
"Under broad, open shed, 200 feet
long, a double row of shelving has
been arranged, and upon this will be
placed basins and soap dishes. In
front of each will hang roller towel,
and each of the posts that hold up
the centre of the shed will show two
mirrors, one on each side. A few steps
from the lavitory is very large ciste:n,
where an abundance of excellent
drinking water is available. All other
necessary conveniences are close at
hand.
The "Re-union HoteP' is entirely
under the management of Mr.. J. M.
Connelley, and he has given it great
deal of time and thought. Veterans
and others who spend the night or the
week at the "Re.union Hotel" will
have no cause to complain of hard
beds or high prices. The rates will be
fifty cents per night.
ga little further down the water
front, at Adger's south wharf, very
large warehouse is being fixed up by
Mr.. r. J. Morris, of the reunion COM
mittee, for such old veterans as will be
unable to pay for their lodging. The
building will be made thoroughly clean

BIG RAILROAD DEAL.

AS the result of big railroad deal
that has been on hand for several
weeks, all parties to it putting out all
kinds of denials in the meantime, the
South Carolina and Georgia railway
company has become a part of the
Southern system.
The deal, however, does not include
the Ohio River and Charleston road
owned by the South Carolina and
Georgia Extension company, and un'
til recently controlled by the South
Carolina and Georgia Railroad compa'
ny. Under section 7 of article 9 Of
the constitution, one railroad compa'
ny is prohibited from absorbing anoth'
er that has parallel or competing line
By some kind of an arrangement, the
exact nature of which is not exactly
explainable without extended legal
investigation, the South Carolina and
Georgia held the Ohio River and Char
lesion through the Extension compa-
nv. The constitutional provision re-
ferred to stood in the way of absorp-
ton, and, therefore, in the deal just
perfected the Ohio River and Charles.

from Blacksburg to Gaffney-still be-
longs to the South Carolina and Geor-
gia Extension company. What is to
become of this property is a matter of
future development. The State, of
Sunday, has the following in connec.
ton with its present disposition
At a meeting held at Blacksburg
yesterday to take steps in regard to
building line from Gaffney to Spar
tanburg, the South Carolina and Geor-
gia Extension stockholders decided to
bond the road for $1,S00,000. The
following was filed with the secretary
of state last night through Mr.. Donald
Mcqueen, agent of the South Carolina
and Georgia at Columbia:
We hereby certify that the consent of
the persons holding the larger amount
i'm value Of the stock of the South Caro-
lima and Georgia Extension Railroad
company has been obtained to an in
crease of the bonded Indebtedness of said
company from nothing to Sl,SOO,000; that

the proposition to make such increase Of

SALESDAY.

Monday, salesday for May, was
about as dull as salesdays generally
get. There were no sales in Yorkville
by the clerk, only one by the sheriff,
and there were but few people in town
from the country to see how things
were going on.
In the ease of Kelly Inman against
Lewis Tigler, the sheriff sold a tract
of 155 acres of land in Bullock's Creek
township. The land was bought by
Lewis Tigler for $500.
Clerk of the Court Wylie went over
to Rock Hill to look after certain sales
advertised at that place. At the
suit of the Savings Bank of Rock Hill
against T. A. Robertson and others, he
sold lot of land in the town of Rock
Hill, containing two-ffths of an acre.
1t was bought by w. B. Wilson for
sS1O.
The clerk also sold, at the suit of the
National Union Bank of Rock Hill
against A. E. Hutchison, 119 shares OF
the capital stock of the Landsford
Water Power company. OF this stock
80 shares were bought by R. Lee Kerr
at s51 per share, and 80 shares were
bought by the National Union Bank of
Rock Hill at $50 per share.

Qualifications of a Juror.

Columbia Record: In the case of
New VS.. the Charleston and Savannah
railway, the supreme court renders a
decision as to the qualifications of ju-
rors which is of considerable impor-
tance. The question at issue was for
damages for injuries received ; but the
point was raised that one of the jurors
was not qualified elector and hence
could not serve, he not having been
registered. The court holds that a
juror must be qualified elector and
to be such be must be registered. But
it holds that where juror is accep-
ted, when he was subject of chal-
lenge, this circumstance will not be a
cause for overthrowing the verdict of
the jury, as the principle is we'll estab-
lished that after discovered cause for
challenge will not affect verdict rem
dered.

WEDNESDAY, MAY 3, 1899.

- No matter what might be the
views of the individual as to the jus,
tice of the American war in the Phil
ippines, every American must admire
and feel proud of the heroism and
courage of our gallant troops. 1t has
been shown that, after all, the Filipino
is no mean adversary. He is more
than a match for the average Span.
lard but he cannot withstand the ir-
resistible American.

GEORGIA CIVILIZATION.
The Newman Fiends Angered Against Rev.
DIR. Broughton.

DIR. Broughton.
There has just occurred another
legitimate development of the events
which recently took place at Newman,
Ga.
On the night of the burning of the
Negro Hose, Rev. l.. G. Broughton, of
the Baptist Tabernacle, corner of Har-
ris aud Luckie streets, Atlanta, de-
nounced the mob as murderers, and
during last week he received several
packages containing pieces of the flesh
of Hose, accompanied by threatening
anonymous letters.
On Sunday, DR.. Broughton preached
scorching sermons in which he re.iter.
ated what be had said about the mob.
He said that the anonymous letters
proved that the senders. were craven
towards, and he asserted that so far as
he was Individually concerned, he was
"not afraid of all the devils in hell"
Sometime during Sunday night, par
ties unknown broke into the church,

WILL BE LOOKED AFTER.

THE ENQUIRER has been making
some especial inquiries in behalf of ac-
commodations for the Confederate vet
erans it proposes to send to the Char
lesion reunion, and as a result takes
pleasure in making public the follow
ing, which explains itself:
CHARLESTON, S. c., April 25, 1899.
YoRKvILLE ENQUIRER, Yorkville, ,:
c.: Replying to your favor of 2nd, will
say the Confederate Hotel will furnish
sleeping quarters for l,5OO Confederate
veterans who are unable to pay for lodging
elsewhere. They will be required to show
a reunion badge, which can be obtained
at division headquarters. Free meals
will he furnished at the Confederate COM
missary, which is situated a short dis
tance.say to 5 minutes walk-from the
hotel. You need have no fear but that
the veterans you send will be well taken
care of. Yours Truly, r. j. NORRIS,
Chairman Committee on Confederate
Hotel.
AS proper caution to be taken be-
fore leaving home, we would suggest
that veterans will do well to get GER
tificates of Identification from the
commander of their local camp, or in
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-05-03
PROGRESS OF THE VOTING.

In todays's issue is published the
last of the series of coupons, on which
the subscribers to THE ENQUIRER will
indicate their preference as to the va.
rious Confederate veterans TO be sent
from the respective townships, and, as
already indicated, the election will
come to a close tomorrow (Thursday)
night at 9 o'clock.
The voting during the past few days
has been rather more lively than at
any previous period of the contest, the
coupons coming in for the various vet
Grams in blocks of half dozen, 80 OF
40 and even so at q time. Fort Mill
and Catawba townships have been
quite backward, until Monday morn.
| ing, when half dozen letters were re-
ceived from Fort Mill, all containing
coupons, with the promise of others TO
follow. Catawba is still holding back ;
but of the something like 1000 votes
that this township is able to put in il
it wants to, we think it likely that quite
fair proportion will be in before the
"close of the polls"
In York township, where the mum.
ber of coupons is larger and where COL
lection is not so difficult: the voting
has been freer. than in the other town
ships; but we have seen signs Of con-
siderable interest all around, especially
in Kings Mountain, Bullock's Creek,
Broad River and Bethesda. None OF
these townships-in fact not a town
ship in the county-bas sent in any
thing like the number of votes it is
capable of sending, and as to how the
result will stand at the windup, would
be rather difficult to predict. We shall
make no effort to count the last votes
until Friday morning, and the first an
nouncement of the result will be in the
uext issue of The ENQUIRER.
Up to IL o'clock noon, yesterday,
the voting stood as follows:

some 40 or so starving Filipinos came
into the American camp and surren-
dered. Owing to the intense heat the
American army was too much exhaus-
ted to pursue the Filipinos from Ca
lumpit; but had to leave them free to
retreat on San Fernando, where they
at once proceeded to entrench them
selves. 1t is thought that another bat
tie will take place at San Fernando.

CoMPLIMENTING THE VETERAN

Intendant Carroll has been collect
ing some more subscribers to the list
of those who desire to compliment
Confederate veterans with Transports
ton to Charleston and return. Up tc
Yesterday at noon, Intendant Carroll's
list stood as follows:
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-05-03

The subscriptions above are with the
understanding that each subscriber Sc
lects the veteran or veterans he desires
to compliment. 1t is very likely that
most of them have already made their
selections; but at the same time there
are no doubt some cases in which no
selections have been made. Where
the veteran elected for the compliment
declines for any reason, it is under
stood that another must Immediately
be selected in his stead. Individuals
desiring specific information on this
point should confer with Intendant
Carroll.

ley was again greeted by large crowd.
The crowd cheered as the carriages
drew away from the church on the
return to the hotel.
- The American army in the Phil
ippines captured the city of Calumpit
last Friday with but slight loss. The
Filipinos made brave show of intend
ing to stand their ground; but the
Americans marched steadily forward
and sent in such showers of lead as to
make the enemy flee in wild disorder.
The number of killed and wounded on
the side of the Filipinos is believed to
have been quite large. The American
loss was slight. After the taking of
the city of Calumpit, high Filipino Of
fcers entered General McArthur's
lines under flags of truce, and stated
that they had been instructed by Gen
eral Aguinaldo to request cessation
of hostilities until the Filipino congress
be summoned for the purpose of as
certaining whether or not the people
wanted peace. General Macarthur en-
tertained the officers for some time and
sent them to General Otis, who gave
them to understand that he would not
recognize the Filipino congress. The
Filipino officers maintained thut Aguin-
aldo would not agree to peace without
the sanction Of congress. General
Otis said that Aguinaldo had com.
menced the war on his own repsonsi-
bility and that he could end it in the
same way. There was no practical
result from the conference. Afterward
