ROCKY.BYE, BABY,
In the Court-Room. and There Was
 Trouble.

Anniston, July 20.-(Special.)-M Hen derson has had under consideration police court case of more than ordinary interest by reason of it's resemblance to a case men, tioned in the Bible A negro baby is the cause of the trouble, and Mayor Henderson was called upon to decide which of two negro women is the mother of the child. Mary Hardie and Carrie Williams both claim the baby, and the Williams woman has had Mary Hardie arrested for steal dng the child from her. Mary Hardie claims that the child is hers and that she left it with Carrie Williams while she went out to work. Carrie Williams says the child is hers and that the Hardie woman has no claim upon it. A number of witnesses for both sides were examined.
 The case ended this afternoon in a rather startling manner. The testimony showed that the baby belonged to Mary Hardie, and 1t was given to her after a number of legal proceedings were gone through with, including habeas corpus proceedings. Car Tie Williams was then arrested on a charge of perjury and was locked up in the city jail. The case attracted a great deal of local attention, particularly among the col Ored population.

TUSKEGEE
There Will be Opposition to Thompson
 in Macon County

Tuskegee, July 20.-(Special. )-Congres- sional primaries will be held in Macon County tomorrow. This is the home coun- ty of Colonel Thompson, but his local ene- mics have secured a prorate in the county and consequently there is increased inter- est in the contest. There is no doubt that Colonel Thompson will secure nearly the solid vote. Elmore County also acts to- morrow leaving but two more counties to act-Coosa and Clay It is conceded that these counties will be for Thompson. To date Lowndes has voted for Brewer, Talla- poosa for Bulger, Chambers for Hefin, Randolph for Thompson and Autauga Is uninstructed, but it Is understood that Bull ger and Brewer have one friend each on the delegation while Thompson has two. Should Thompson carry both Macon and Elmore tomorrow his friends believe he will have then won the race.

TENTS SHIPPED
 TO BIRMINGHAM And Regiment of State Troops
 Will Encamp Here. SUPPLIES HAVE BEEN SENT Adjutant General Brandon Has Receiv- ed Message from Quartermaster General Saying the Issuance
 Has Been Approved
SUPPLIES HAVE BEEN SENT

Montgomery. July 2O.-(Special. )-There is reason now to believe that Birmingham will secure the encampment of one, If not two of the regiments, of the Alabama Ma tional Guard next month. Nothing defi- nite as to the place of holding the en- campment has yet been decided, but 1t is now certain that the encampment will be held Adjutant General Brandon received a dispatch from Quartermaster General Ludington at Washington stating that the Secretary of War las approved the issu- clothing and equippage turned over to the government by the state at the beginning of the Spanish-American war.
 This property includes 446 war tents, 42S shelter tent halves, three complete hospital tents POI campaign hats, 339 pair leggings, 800 pair trousers, 16 overcoats, 66 ponchos and five drums.
 All of this material excepting the tents will be shipped direct from the Quarter masters depot in Philadelphia to the mili- tary companies throughout the state. The tents will be shipped to Birmingham and Mobile It is believed that the ordering of a portion of the tents to Birmingham means that the Third, and probably the Second regiments will be ordered into camp there during the latter part of August.

CHINESE MINISTER
 IS CONGRATULATED On His Service to United States In Getting the Message. MIR. WU LOST LITTLE TIME In Delivering the Message to Secretary Hay He Seems Overjoyed to
 Know That Minister Con
 ger is Still Alive
MIR. WU LOST LITTLE TIME

Washington, July 20.-The Chinese min ister, MT. Wu Ting Fang, is today the cen- ter of official and personal congratulation over the great service he has performed for the administration and the people by opening communication between Minister Conger and Washington and sweeping aside mass of horrible reports as to the wholesale massacre of our officials and others The Chinese legation was in a state of jubilation today.
 Minister Wu breakfasts early in the day, after the Chinese custom, and this morn- ing he breakfasted earlier than usual. Just before he sat down a telegraph messenger boy rode up to the legation office and pre- scented him dispatch
 The message was taken in hand by a sec retary while the minister proceeded with his breakfast. The message proved to be quite long, and a considerable part of it was in an uninteligible cipher code. But 1t was not until the eye fell upon the name
 Conger' written in English that the full purport of the message became evident. Then there was stir throughout the es- tablishment. The minister was entirely in the dark as to the meaning of a strange group of Arabic figures, but 1t was evil dent to him that this was a reply direct from Minister Conger to Secretary Hay's s cipher cablegram of July Il.
 MT. Wu went up stairs to his private of flee, where he was joined by his secretary, MT. Chang. Word was sent for the minis ter's automobile to take him to the State Department.
 Went In an Automobile
 A few minutes laeer he appeared with MT. Chang at the east end balcony of the lega- tion. In his hand he carried document carefully wrapped up in a piece of linen His face was wreathed in smiles. He step- ped into the vehicle and his American at tendant turned the lever and they sped up Connecticut avenue toward the State De- partment.
 1t was 9:45 o'clock when MT. Wu handed the document to Secretary Hay, and then after brieI congratulations over what the message was beheved to contain he retired In order that the translation of the cipher might begin. MT. Wus personal feelings over the receipt of the message are those of intense relief following a long period of excited depression. He had little to say over the message, as 1t speaks for itself, and his views could add nothing to 1t. eA'' AiN 10 iSJoiSSu dt tHe iepOItS Ol the massacre of MT. Conger and the for e1gners.is dissipated and this he regards as the supreme fact, notwithstanding the grave statement in the message that the bombardment is going and massacre is imminent. The trankness with which this statement is made is taken as conclusive evidence of the genuineness of the dispatch Moreover MT. Wu is personally acquainted with the Tatoati of Shanghai, who for Warded the message for him and got back the answer, and the Minister regards him as one of the most irreproachable and high minded men in all China.
