Louisville, KY. June 1.-The Confeder-
ate Veterans association which has been
In session here today voted to hold the
1910 meeting In Memphis.
: For upwards Of half an hour the con-
vention was In an uproar over a resolu-
tion presented by W. II. Burgynn OF
North Carolina to the effect that the con-
vention of Confederate veterans recog-
nized with appreciation the language OF
General Daniel Il. Sickles, the orator OF
the annual reunion Of the Army Of the
Potomac at Fredericksburg in which he
had mentioned most kindly the men of
the Confederacy and the resolution said
the Confederates reciprocated the feeling
shown toward them by the men Of the
Army Of the Potomac.
Col. j. L. Shepherd Of Richmond Sc
cured the floor and said: 81 want no
coquetting with the Yankees who de-
feated us. For Gods sake don't accept
anything from Union soldiers. Vote 1t
down, comrades; vote it down."
Instantly there was terrific uproar.
Dozens Of delegates were ON their feet de-
manding recognition from the chair.
Rev. William Is. Hill Of Mississippi So
cured the eye Of the chairman. He read
again the resolution and strongly urged
Its adoption, saying that the man who
would vote against 1t was not worthy the
name Of soldier.
Gen. s. d. Lee also urged the adoption
of the resolution. As he concluded Col
Shepherd came to the front OF the plat
form and cried "vot 1t down; vote II
down."
He was met with applause and cries ol
"sit down.
Wv. 1. LeDrosett of North Carolina, de-
clared he was the only member OF the
committee on resolutions who had op
posed the adoption Of the resolution. ID
was against 1t for the reason that hi
thought they should not take action until
they had received official notice Of the &C
| ton taken by the Army Of the Potomac.
General Gordon finally restored ordel
and said: "I trust the time Z will nevel
come while 1 stand on Southern ground
or among the chivalrous men Of ths
South, when will refuse to send kind
ly message to an enemy"
ssI know the sender Of this message
| On the heights Of Gettysburg he stoot
gallantry in front Of my lines and it wa
our bullets that sent him to the rear will

cate the kindly message Of the Northern
soldier"
The question was put and It wa
| adopted with a roar Of assent.
The reunion ball tonight was a big sue
cess.
