On last Saturday morning the grand
j1ry, in the United States District Court,
at Greenville, made its final prcsentmcnt
in part as follows:
We have considered and investigated
all the matters submitted by tho District
Attorney, and have acted upon ll3 cases,
finding 90 true bills and % no bills. We
desire to say in this connection that, in
our Judgment, il large majority of the
cases scnt to this torn of court have
been mcritorious; that there have been
worry few frivolous cases and very few
professional witnesses, and we commend
tho Commissioners of the Court for the
care exercised in sending cases up, and
the Deputy Marshals and revenue officers
for tho care and diligence shown 10y
them in working up the cases.

GEN sRAL LAYTON.

| General I.awton. idolized invincible
the main spring of the Philippine cam.
paign as popularity measured, is dead
lsawton stood second only to Dewey In
popular esteem, no loss could carry
, greater sorrow to the people who have
followed the campaign against the Fill
pinos. Other generals have led their
troops with equal success. other OIL
GERS have risen to prominence only to
meet cross fire of criticism that has
been met with explanations for fail
ure to act or excuses for apparent lack
of capacity. But when Lawton took
the field, when Lawton has been on
the fighting line. the public has al
most invariably quietly waited results
confident that if the enemy could be
overcome Lawton would do 1t.
The secret Of the Generals success
seems to have been his splendid, cool
headed courage and apparently utter
indifference to personal preferment as
result of complete success in the per-
Torrance of duty. AS a commanding
general Lawton showed his sound
belief in the old saying "of you want
thing well done. do II yourself"
Whether chasing insurgents or
STRENGTHENING out a civil government,
he was always ready for action; he
made the best of the situation as IL
was, not as it ought to be, and never
allowed petty iealousies of army poll
tics to interfere with the prompt full
iilment of orders. He tended strictly
to business and expected others to fol-
low the same rule. A man of strict
personal integrity, he was a type of
American manhood that is most need
ed among those who are to do the ac-
tive work of establishing and carrying
on bene6cent rule in the new posses
sions. Lawton's work is ended, but
the lessons of his life will not be
quickly forgotten by the army or the
people who have closely watched his
career during the more recent Difficult
ties the country has had to face.

GDRMAN FLAG IN SAMOA.

Washington, Dec. 21.-The following
statement Is made by the German Off
Gals here:
"A press telegram of the 18th inst.
from Apia, via Auckland, reports that
tn German Consul in Apia has solemn
ly proclaimed the pending annexation
OF Upolu and Savaii by Germany to a
number of Samoan officials on board
the German man-of-war, and that on
the same day he hoisted the German
flag on the Supreme Court.
This report does not cover the re-
ports received in Berlin from the Ger
man Consul in Apia and according to
the instructions which he has received
from Berlin, 1t seems absolutely un-
true.
"The German Consul has likewise
wired on the 18th instant, but he SIM
ply states that certain Tanu chiefs have
refused to pay the head tax imposed by
the three consuls, hence they had been
ordered to leave the districts by the
thirteen chiefs. The three consuls
have instructed the thirteen chiefs to
send the aggressors to Apia for trial.
This has been agreed upon"
The State Department has had no
message from our Consul at Apia to
confirm the reports of fresh trouble in
Samoa and this fact is regarded as
sufficient to show that any slight dis
turbance that may have occurred, has
~een much exaggerated in the report.
The officials are confident that what
ever trouble may occur will not be
chargeable to the German officials as
the German Government Is quite as
anxious as our own that the pending
treaty providing for permanent set
Element of the whole Samoan question
shall not be endangered at this critical
stage.

do or die is now the British pro-
gram and the best evidence of Boer
capabilities is found in the strenuous
measures Britain has to adopt to OBJ
tain reasonable assurance that 1t can
do" the enemy. Ordering out the re-
serves and displacing Gen. Butler in
command of the South African forces
tells in short meter to what extent
British war lords overestimated their
ability. But the true British grit with
which they swallow the bitter pill and
proceed with preparations that would
worry first class power is inspiring.
Even with Lord Roberts and Kitchener
and 10000 men in the field, the posi-
ton of Great Britain is not happy
one. Recruits to the .Boer ranks are
not diminishing and during the delay
now forced upon the attacking columns
the Beers have all the advantages for
recuperation and strengthening of
their defenses that accrue to an unde-
feated II not victorious enemy.
Meanwhile continental enemies will
not be asleep. Their friendship and
neutrality is perfunctory and shallow.
Every advantage that can be taken of
British reverses will be improved.

are to run the risks which delay will

Chicago, Aug. 20.-Booker T. Washing
toms name was hissed yesterday at the
Afro-American Council, in session at Beth
eI Church Amid jeers and shouts the
Rev. r. C. Ransom denounced the Tuske-
gee educator as a man unfit TO pose as the
Moses of the colored people of America,
ferming him as a trimmer, afraid TO
show his true colors. Cries of He's a
traitor were heard all over the church.
Not a voice was raised in the absent mans 5
defence Mrs. Booker T. Washington's S
name. al her own request, was stricken
from the programme with cheer.
The conventions action was due TO the
fact that delegates felt themselves snubbed
when Mr. Washington did not attend FRI
DAYS session. He arrived at the Palmer
House Friday morning and when COM
mittee called it was unable to see him. AS
the proceedings drew 10 a close and Mr.
Washington did not appear the indignation
broke out with violence The publication
OF this Reputation. of Washington in the
evening papers caused his friends 10 rally
and a partial retraction was carried.
