MOST UNIQUE CITY
 IN UNITED STATES Town to be Governed Entirely
 by Negroes. SITUATED NEAR ANNISTON Population of Four Hundred, Every One Black-They Say That They
 Will Govern Themselves
 Wisely and Well
SITUATED NEAR ANNISTON

Annlston, August 15.-(Special.)-By a unanimous vote of 90 per cent. of the reg istered voters, Hobson City decided today to be the most unique city in the United States, in that it will be the only exclu- sively negro town in the country.
 Today's election was by order of the pro- bate court to decide whether or not the town should be incorporated. Incorpora- ton carried unanimously, not single vote being cast against 1t.
 The town is located three miles from An- niston, has 400 inhabitants, all negroes, and contains one hundred houses, three churches, a school house, several stores and no saloon. At today's election the en- tire town turned out, the males to vote, the females to see that they voted right, and not drop of whisky or the least disorder was in evidence.
 Following the incorporation, will be the most unique experiment in town governing ever made in Alabama. Within five days the municipal election will be ordered and the negroes will select city officials, every one of whom will be coored. Upon the experiment hinges the question of the ne- groes ability to govern his own people. The star voter today was Clay Snow, very black negro, who is the towns oldest in- habitant. Snow is 65 and has lived sixty years in Hobson City. The new negro town adjoins the town of Oxford, and many of the people of Oxford have op- posed the incorporation for fear the negro town would develop into disorderly com munity. The negroes insist, however, that they will govern themselves wisely and well and the experiment will be watched with intense interest in Alabama.

ROOT GETTING
 DOWN TO WORK Held Consultation Yesterday With Adjutant-General. QUESTION OF ENLISTMENT Problem of Transportation in Philip s7ines Has Been Under Considera- tion by the War Department
 For Some Time.
QUESTION OF ENLISTMENT

Washington, August 15.-Secretary Root today gave considerable of his time to army matters. He had a long consultation with Adjutant General Corbin relative to the army, It's strength, equipment and supplies, these being considered in connec- ticn with the statements that have been furnished by the heads of the different bu- reaus.
 The question of enlisting and the selection of officers for additional volunteer regi- ments was also under consideration, but 1t was stated that no decision to call for more troops was considered. While it is said that five regiments will be organized the number has not been definitely determined upon. Neither is it settled whether all will be infantry regiments. It has been sug- gested that another cavalry regiment or two may be of great advantage in the Philippines. The only objection to organ izing cavalry regiments is said to be the great difficulty and cost of transporting horses to the Philippines. The recruiting now going on will first continue The regi- ments may be organized at other posts than the first ten have been stationed, as several localities are anxious to have them.
 The problem of transportation in the Philippines has been under consideration by the war department for some time. It is expected that at the end of the rainy season it will be necessary to move the troops and at the present time means, of transportation are not sufficient for large army and extensive operations The diff culty has been met by sending mules to Manila in large numbers The quarter masters department has already shipped about 600 of these animals and will send 500 more very soon. There are nearly 2,000 more owned by the department which will be sent if needed.
 These animals will not only be used for transporting supplies in wagons. but 1t is intended to organize pack train for car rying equipments where teams cannot be utilized
 The indications are that the campaign after the rainy season is to be conducted not only along the railroad where General Otis has confined most of his operations, but the interior of Luzon will be pene- trated.

Situation Is Critical

Washington, August 15.-The situation in as critical Thus far, however, the state department has not received a word from any, source concerning the strainedt cohd- ton of affairs, and there is no disposition to take up such questions of neutrality and the care of our interests in that locality unless the war issue is actually framed. Charles Macrum is the United States con sul stationed at Pretoria. He has sent number of reports dealing with eomrner- cial affairs, but has not touched on the delicate political conditions existing The United States also a consular agent, J, H. Manion, at Johannesburg, but he has not been heard from since he was appointed. hannesburg that a colored blacksmith, claiming to be an American, had been roughly handled by the field comets. Iand that he had raised the question of his American citizenship and had appealed to the American representative The state department has been expecting to hear from MT. Manion on this case, but nothing has come.
 Admiral HOwiSons return will probably shed much light on the condition of affairs in the Boer country and the extent, of American interests, for while the Chicago was in South African waters the admiral spent much time at Pretoria and Johannes burg. The admiral has not yet made report of his movements.

WHARTON BARKER HERE YESTERDAY
  Populist Nominee for Presi- dency Spent the Day With
 Chairman Grove.

The Hon. Wharton Barker of Pennsyl. vania, the nominee of the populist party for the presidency of the United States, was in Birmingham yesterday.
 Mr. Barker spent the day in consultation with State Chairman Grafton B. Grove and other leaders of the populist party.
 He received great many visitors at the Florence hotel.
 Mir. Barker talked very freely, but chief ly mot for publication. One of the many statements he made of national interest was this:
 ''1here will be about fifteen million votes cast in 1900. Four millions at least will be populist Possibly more than that num- Der will support the populist ticket. You need not be surprised If the populists nom- inee for president is elected There are 1,500, 900 democrats disgusted with tine dem- ocratic party. Forty per cent of the re- publican party are rebellious on account of the Philippine question. They are against They must go to the populist party. There Is an upheaval at hand. The strong ele- ment of the American population will have nothing to do with the democratic or the republican party. There is nothing left for them to do but align or ally themselves with the populist party"
 What am I doing south? I am come and Mississippi"
 Mir. Barker Is man of most distinguished appearance and most engaging manners.

LILY LANGTRY
 AGAIN \ BRIDE Famous Actress Privately Mar ried to Hugo Gerald
 De Bathe.

London, August 15.-Mrs Lily Langtry, Island of Jersey to Hugo Gerald de Bathe, 2S years of age, the eldest son of Sir Henry Percival de Bathe, Bart. retired general and Crimean veteran.
 The ceremony was private, the only wit ness being Mrs. Langtry's daughter. The Prince of Wales is said to have been in the confidence of the pair and he sent them a telegram of congratulations.
 The wedding occurred the day Mrs. Langtry's horse, Merman won the Good wood cup. Sir Henry de Bathe has seats in Devonshire Sussex and County Meath, to which the bridegroom is heir.
 Sisters of the bridegroom are married to Henry McCalmont, Harry Lawson and Sir Saville Brinton Crossley, bart.
 The wedding will not interfere with Mrs. -Langtry's forthcoming season at the Haymarket.
 Mrs. Langtry, in an interview at the the atre, said to a reporter of the Associated Press:
 "Yes, it Is quite true am married to Dr. DeBathe. The wedding occurred very quietly at my old church, St. Saviour, Is- land of Jersey, where my dear old father officiated so often. It was pretty much in the nature of a runaway match, as we kept it to ourselves, hoping it would leak out gradually. I see the papers put me down as 47 years old. Well, few years either way doesn't matter, but I am only 39 for the old clerk at St. Savious's took my age from the church register of births.
 "I know nothing of Hugo's estate. In- deed, have not been there yet. Newspa- pers, as a rule, do not spare me, and have often criticized me when did not deserve it. They very idea of newspaper comment makes me speak nicely of our wedding now that it has leaked out.
 "The Prince of Wales was, as he always is, thoughtful. He remembered us kindly by congratulations. But I am sorry his name was mentioned, as what he did was done privately, and out of pure friendship.
 MT. Frohman is arranging with me for an American tour. long to go, for l love the people of that country. Of course my husband will accompany me-"
