TROOPS IN TROUBLE.
Big Row at Savannah, Ga. Gets
Iowa Troops Into Prison.

Iowa Troops Into Prison.
SAVANNAH, Ga, May H-The Forty
ninth Iowa regiment was mustered out
OF service yesterday morning. Maj. Gill
bert, Maj. Wallace and Mai. Howell were
the paymasters, and the work progressed
rapidly, the records being in excellent
shape. Sixty men were arrested by the
police for plunderlng the peddlers who
were at the camp to dispose Of their
wares. They finally secured their release
by making up the amount, s72, that one
OF the venders said he was out by their
onslaught.
The trouble. between the soldiers and
the peddlers arose from the determina-
ton of the haWkers to get within the
lines of the camp to dispose of their wares.
That was in direct violation of the orders
of Col. w. @. Dows, and of the wishes of
the soldiers themselves. The peddlers
were told they were were not wanted
about the camp and that the best thing
they could do would be to get out. A
guard was posted during the early morn
ing and the venders were i'll that way
kept back for time. They sncroaohed
gradually upon the lines, however, and
when the guard was finally relieved, came
right into the camp.
One of the soldiers got into a rcw over
bottle of pop he had bought. 1t was
said the soldier had not paid for the stuff
and positively did not intend to do So
That was a general signal. and all the
peddlers had to get out in a hurry, some
suffering spiliation at the hands Of the
soldiers.
One Of the peddlers hurried to the city
and secured the assistance of the police.
The detectives Of the force and a squad
of seven or eight policemen were dis
patched to the Bolton street station,
where detachment of the provost guard
was also at hand to assist in the arrest
of the soldiers coming in from camp on
the cars whom the hawker might point
out as implicated in the attack on him.
The mans indication of the culprits was
at wholesale rate. He did not stop until
sixty had been pointed out and put under
arrest Men who were known by the Off
GERS and comrades to have been abso-
lutely unable to nave taken part In the
affair on account of duties demanding
their presence elsewhere were taken in
charge and 1t Is doubtful If ten of the
men apprehended were guilty of the
charge made against them.
Landed at the station, the soldiers were
all anxiety to extricate themselves from
their difficulty, but knew of no way Of
doing so except to settle with the man
who was injured All wanted to leave
duizng the afternoon with the'r, comrades
for their homes in Iowa, and S-iere SEEM
ed little chance Of their being able to do
SO unless some kind Of settlement might
be effected. The money was paid and the
soldiers released.

Review of Reviews, after an audience

UNIQUE ART CRITICISM.
No Buttons or Button Holes In POr.

No Buttons or Button Holes In POr-
trait-Sitters' Clothes.
LONDON, May 14.-A trade paper, the
London Tailor and Cutter, issues some
thing unique in the way of criticism of the
academy, merely in discussing the man
ner in which artists painted the clothes
of their sitters. Lord Kelvin's trousers,
1t says, are so free of seams that the only
conclusion possible is that he must have
grown in them. Sir Charles Scotter's coat
and trousers have apparently neither but
tons nor button holes.
Indeed, scarcely any of the sitters have
all their buttons, but the climax comes
with Gerald Balfour, who is so terribly
dressed by his artist that the Tailor and
Cutter cannot find words to express it
self adequately, but exclaims, THE med
ley of the Chief Secretary's clothes van
ishes into undefnable nothingness."

SHANGHAI, May 14.-The tsune II va
men Chinese foreign off1ce) has replied
TO the russian minister at Pekin, M de
Giers, that the government is unable to
accede to the Russian demand, made last
Wednesday, for a new railway conces-
sion connecting Pekin with Russia's pres
ent system in Manchuria..
Not since the taking Of Port Arthur by
Russia have the Chinese been SO asitated
as over this demand. Whether M de
Giers named a specific route Is not vet
obtainable, some officials stating that
only preliminary notice was given by
Russia and others that she is asking for
q line direct from Pekin to Shan-hai-
Kwon.
Certainly the British legation in Pekin
had no previous knowledge that such a
proposal Was coming from St. Peters,
burg. The concession asked for would
ruin the existing northern railways in
which British capital to the amount of
e2,000,000 Is invested, but there seems to
be no alternative route without interfer-
Ing with plans for railway extension
which the Chinese themselves have in
mind.
1t is believed that Russias action In this
matter is intended to demonstrate to- the
world that the recent convention with
Great Britain, respecting spheres of in
terest in China, Of which the Chinese
government was notified almost inme-
diately before this latest concession was
demanded, has not fettered the action
of Russia at the court of Pekin, and also
to strengthen Russia's prestige with the
Chinese, which was unfavorably affected
by her withdrawal of her late protest
respecting the northern railways.
BERLIN, May. 14.-It is believed that
Russia's latest claims in China will re-

h. |. g.. composed OF the members and
ex-members OF the board OF education,
teachers and ex-teachers Of the three
cities met at Greenville last Friday
evening. The committee on arrange
ments at Greenville, headed by Supt.

making the necessary arrangements
for the social gathering. The special
train carrying Ionia's jolly delegation
swept into our city little late on ac-
count of the regular train being delay
ed The Bedding b. |. G., TO the num-
Der OF 26, crowded aboard and received
"A warm welcome from Ionia, headed by
Messrs. Wright and Bemis. After a
little delay we arrived safely at Green
Vile and marched To the Maccabee
Hall, where we were cordially received
by the Greenville b. /. G.. After mu-
tual greetings we passed on to the ban
quet tables, where covers were laid for
about l25 guests. What IA pleasing
prospect for a hungry crowd? TO say
that we did justice to the elegant
spread which the Episcopal ladies had
prepared for the occasion expresses it
feebly.
After the banquet we returned to
the reception room, where we were
handed cards upon which To place the
names of the people represented by
about 70 portraits in profile, which
adorned the walls. The profiles rep
resented the members and ex-members
OF the boards of education of the three
cities and were numbered promiscu-
ously. About halt an hour was con
sumed in guessing the names OF the
people whose portraits were before us,
after which we were entertained by
the Greenville b. |. G. who presented
viii Cartoons "The Three Lovers, "
and tableaux. At the business session
which followed Judge Smith of IoDia
was chosen president for the ensuing
year; Prof. Bemis of Ionia, secretary
ana treasurer; ID. Nichols, yice-presl-
dent from Greenvlle; Miss VanDress-
err, vice-president from Ionia; and W..

sons represented by the portraits, and
it was found that only one of all the
members present had them correct
The honor came to Mr.. Frank Hudson
of Bedding, who received as prize the

secured the profles, which he will no
doubt exhibit in Bedding In the near
