THE NEGRO STILL LIVES
But Doctors Say John Bailey Cannot
 Recover

Marietta, Ga., March 1S.-John Bailey, the negro who was shot last night by a mob. is still alive. The jail in which he is incar- cerated, however, is guarded tonight by a posse of fifty men. Late this evening a rumor was circulated that the negroes in this vicinity had decided to form mob tonight and attempt the release of Bailey. Judge Cover, of the circuit court, immedi- ately ordered the sheriff to protect his pris- oner at all hazards, and the posse was put inside the jail at dark.
 The doctors say the negro cannot live The attempt on Bailey's life was made about 1 o'clock this morning. The negro had attempted to assault Miss Shell Grove last Thursday, and the negro was arrested the day following. The mob which made the assault on the jail was composed of about 125 men. They broke into the jail and fired into the negro's cell. He fell at the first volley and the mob, thinking its work well done, departed.

Thus 1t can be seen that while Quay, through the efforts of MT. Hoar, has se- cured a nominal victory, it is really vic- tory that does not advance his interests particularly. It really does seem surpris- ing that a man of Senator Hoar's high ideals and political morality should so in- terest himself in the case of Matthew Stan ley Quay, as to come to the rescue of Quay when Senator Penroses imperious conduct and boorish disregard for the feelings of senators had aroused so much antagonism as to seriously jeopardize Quay's interests. Hoars friendliness to Quay would be total ly inexplicable were 1t not for the fact that he conscientiously believes governors nave the right to fill senatorial vacancies not caused by death or resignation, but by the failure of legislatures to elect He appar- ently does not differentiate between the principle he thinks involved and the poli- tical personality of MT. Quay.
 The Return of W refer
 The return of General Wheeler from the Philippines Is a matter of much Interest in Washington. General Wheeler was not given much of an opportunity to dlstln- syuish himself in a military way in the PhiNuoines, but he did make careful study of the conditions there and is in a position to give the president and public men in Washington valuable information regarding conditions there. He believes the instruction has been put down and is full of praise for our troops.
 The activity and energy of this re- markai5ie little man are stil commented upon His fervent patriotism and love for the flag against which he, fought with such reslstless energy gratify every pub- lie man and make his heart beat little faster when he thinks Of this intrepid fighter whose services for his country be- fore Santiago were of such value. Even if the house should decide that by reason of his military service after his unanimous election to congress by his district in Ala baana he Is not entitled to his seat in the house. there Will be no doubt of his return to congress, where fhis experience will be of the utmost value to him as a legislator and his patriotic sacrifices during the Spanish war will give him a more promi- nent and influential position. than he has hitherto held in the house.

Victoria, B. C., March 1S.-According to adytces by the Adzu Maru the report that Germany is about to essay what is every where recognized as a practical occupa- tion of the province of Shang Tung is generally credited as being in line with the newly accepted plan of foreign en- croaohment in China.

There is no little significance in the
appointment of James II. Wolfe, d
colored lawyer of Boston, as judge ad
vocate general of the national depart
ment of the Grand Army. especially as
the present national commander Of the
order, Judge Rasseur of ST. Louis who
makes the appointment, is Southern
man and might naturally be supposed
TO be in sympathy with the color
prejudice of his section. 1t is right
that the black soldier should stand
uponan equality with the white in this
great organization, yet it is known
that principle objection which comes
from the South against the reunion Of
ex-confederates with Union veterans is
the fact that this equality exists in the
Grand Army. The appointment of Mr..
Wolfe to this high position in the
national body is a notice to the South
that there can be no commingIing of
'he blue and the gray unless this
equality is recognized.
