Against Georgia Convict Camp
ManaRera.

ATLANTA, Ga. Sept. T.-Charges have
been filed with the prison commission of
Georgia by Solicitor j. w. Edmundson, OF
Brooks county. this state, In the form OF
afYidavits from prominent citizens to the
effect that McRee brothers have kidnap-
ped innocent men and women and made
them work under armed guards for an
indefinite time. 1t is charged that one
practice of the McRee brothers has been
to employ "trappers" to arrest innocent
negroes passing through the country and
without the form of trial to imprison them
and put them to work.
The charges filed by Solicitor Edmund
son contain the following: Fanny Jack
son eight or ten years ago went to the
camp to visit her husband who was kept
there as convict. When she went TO
leave the camp she was arrested and
forced to work, chained with the men,
watched by the guards and frequently
whipped She had young child with her.
and finally WIN Mckee whipped her ter
ribly to make her bind the child TO the
camp In order that 1t might grow up a
convict.
other atlantis charge that they were
arrested and detained similarly without
criminal charge being proved against
them.
Several white citizens OF the vicinity
allege thar the affidavits of the negroes
are accurate as to the statements made in
them.

NEW SUBMARINE TERROR.
Work of the Holland in Minnie Naval
Battle Praised by Board OF
Arbftrament.

NEWPORT, r. l.. Sept. 27.-The board
of arbitrament at its meeting gave
out fits decisions as 10 the operations thai
have been held here the last two days by
the ships of the North Atlantic squadron
The attack Of the Holland on the kear-
sarge was not allowed AZ the time me
the battieship had her running lights up,
and this, the board says. was enough 10
rule the Hollands attack unsuccessful, as
the battleship was not looking for an enc
my.
The board is loud in its praise of the
commander Of the Holland, admitting that
she went five miles out TO sea when she
by vessel. II is also admitted that the
trial with her could be considered a FAIR
one.
manders were afraid of this craft, and
did not wish II stated that their vessel
had been picked up by the new defender
of the seas.
In regard to the first night the decision
is that the Stiletto was successful in hor
attack on the battleship Massachusetts,
and that she torpedoed her before she
ran ashore az Fort Adams.
In regard TO the ramming OF the Kear-
sarge by the tug Leyden. II Is the ruling
that the Kearsarge was out OF the field
of action at the time. and the claim IS
not allowed.
In regard to the work OF the torpedo
feet last night, the decisions entirely
change the reports of the umpire as to
only torpedo boat that was successfully
torpedoing was the Gwynn. and that she
put out the Scorpion and the Eagle. The
Porter. Morris and Gwynn were put out
by the Kearsarge, and the Dahlgren by
the Indiana This Is just the reverse OF
what was reported last night.
The Texas was the only vessel that was
not found. and II is said that she turned
tail and went far out to sea so that she
could not be found.
The operations are considered a success,
and they will be the subject of discussion
in tho national war college on Friday,

GROWTH or GREAT CITIES.
what the Figures Of the Census Bu-
reau VIII show.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 81 - Statistics
have been compiled at the census bureau,
based on the population OF large cities.
which have been announced up TO the
present time, which demonstrate that the
l5 largest cities In the United States
numerically increased In population from
1850 to 1900 almost exactly as they did
between 1850 and 1890 These La cities
increased their population 4.7Ml07 from
1850 to 1890, and 1927. 95S from 40 to 1900
or Just 1874 less during the latter than in
the former decade. or course when the
aggregate percentages OF increase of the
population OF these i55 cities during these
two periods are compared they show that
the percentage OF increase was consider
ably lower In the last ten years because
the increase IL compared with larger
population In 1900 than II was in 1890
The fact that numerically the increase
OF the population of these cities has come
out just about the same during the last
two censuses IL more interesting from the
fact that the rates OF increase of the
various cities have varied greatly.

house. The cost OF ice this summer has
been 8 cents per pound or at the rate of
800 per ton.
Consul McCook says more mining
claims have been worked this summer
than in any other season. because the
heavy rainfall has afforded sufficient
water for sluicing. Machinery is now
found everywhere in the district, and no
one thinks of working a claim without
boiler. engine and pumps.
The amount Of gold sent out this sea-
son. as per consular invoices. is si2.5o0, Goa.
IL Is possible that n quarter of a million
more has gone out without any record.
