Washington, March 1.-Notwith-
standing the agreement made by the
senate to vote on the Hawaiian gov
eminent bill yesterday, the final vote
on the measure was postponed until
today. Senator Aldrich (rep., r. ID,
chairman of the finance committee,
made an explanation of the work of
the conferees on the financial measure.
One of the features of the session was
the speech of Senator McLaurin (dem.,
S. CO. on the Philippine question. He
is the first democrat in the senate to
declare himself for expansion.
Senator Aldrich in his statement said
the amendment ito the currency bill was
also made to permit banks to issue
oe-third of their circulating notes in
denominations of S. because banks in
remote parts needed a good deal of
currency in small bills. Senator Allen
(pop., Neb.) interrupted saying there
was no such demand from his section.
A lively political colloquy ensued be-
tween the two senators. At the con-
clusion of Senator Aldrich's statement,
Senator McLaurin delivered his speech
upon the Philippine question. He
strongly deplored that democratic sena-
tors were making the Philippine ques-
ton of expansion political issue.
Some of the greatest democrats OF the
past wree expansionists. He dwelt on
the great opportunities offered
by the islands for trade between
Americans and the nations of the
orient. The south had special
interest in the expansion OF
our trade. Fealty to party and mis-
leading information, he feared, had
produced among southern farmers OPP
position to territorial expansion,
but he believed it impossible much
longer to mislead them. When Sen
ator McLaurin concluded, considera-

stepped forward and shook hands with

tation of Roberts to the vanquished
boer leader. He then motioned Gen
Cronje to a seat in the chair which had

breakfasted with the British officers.
Cronje Starts For Capetown.
London, March 1.-The war Office has

day in charge of Maj Gen. Prettyman
Later in the day the remaining prison
ers went in charge of the Earl of Err

a hundred imperial volunteers. The

Cronje's refusal to. accept my offer OF

Capetown, March 1.-The governor
of Cape Colony, Sir Alfred Miner, fur
ther prorogued the Cape parliament to
April 6. He also issued a proclama-
tin announcing that the mill
tary authorities were authorized
to impress wagons, oxen, provisions
and other necessities in Rhodesia,
the articles thus taken to be paid for
at fair value. This was taken to
mean that Col Plumer's column ad-
vancing to the relief of Marketing
would be enabled to seize supplies.

ON THE Rail.

Some of the railway companies are
doing away with the brass checks for
shipping baggage. The check used is
made of cardboard, on which is en-
tered the name of the station to which
the baggage is to be sent This check
or card is attached to a strap. At the
end of the strap is a plain metal tag,
which bears the railway company's
name. The tag is known officially as
a plate, and the agents and baggagemen
have orders to call them plates on all
occasions and especially when making
requisitions for them. The only brass
checks to be used are those for check
ing baggage to foreign lines.

WISCONSIN PEOPLE.

E. Boyd Mott of GAINESVILLE is dead
at Columbia, Mo-, where he had gone
to attend the Columbia university.
The first news of his sickness was re-
ceived in the form of telegram to
his father, A. D. Mott. The dispatch
simply stated that the young man was
seriously i'll, and to come at once. Mr..
Mott left on the noon train, but was
too late. The circumstances surround
ing the young mans death are very
sad. He graduated from the James
Vile high school in 1899, and at once
entered Columbia college to study civil
engineering. He was an exceptionally
bright young man, and the future had
much in store for him. He would
have been Fl years old March 4.
1t is very possible that a number
of relatives of the famous General
Joubert off the Transvaal army are
among the population of La Crosse.
Mrs A. Thomas is interested in the
matter and, if her suggestions are
correct, she is a descendant of the
same family as the general. Should
she succeed in tracing the tangled
thread of relationship, the connection
will be on the side of her grandmother
who bore the name Joubert. The Jou-
bert family from which Mrs. Thomas
is descended is of Spanish and French
origin and is an illustrious family, its
members having been statesmen and
warriors of fame. The Thomas fami-
ly is one that holds an enviable record
in the history of our country, General
John Thomas of Washingtons forces
being a member of it, as was also the
General John Thomas of Andrew
Jackson's staff The latter served at
the battle of New Orleans with honor
and was a personal friend and COM
paniop of Jackson. Mrs. Thomas will
attempt to reach the Joubert family in
south Africa that she may discover
to a certainty whether there is a re-
lationship existing. A General Jou-
bert who served under the first Napo-
leon may be discovered to be the per-
sonage connecting the two families
Mrs. Thomas has several heirlooms
of the Joubert family in the shape OF
sofa and small table, known to he
at least 200 years old.

Large Funds Being Accumulated to
BE Used for Election Purposes.

There is one feature of the coming
elections which deserves to be mem
toned and that is that there is but little
concealment of the fact that both sides
are accommodating large funds to be used
in obtaining the purchasabie vote. 1t is
estimated that there are not less than 500
purchasable votes and that these
will bring anywhere from $40 to $25 each
according 90 the amount of rivalry be-
tween the buyers for the two sides. The
election is evidently close and the rivalry
is certain to be strong and this means that
the higher figure named is likely to be
reached early in the day.
The fund is conservatively estimated at
$4,000 for each side. Some of the candi-
Gates are understood to have given up
very literally. That $40 O00 should be spent
in a primary election is unprecedent-
ed Mayor Myers said yesterday
that he would instruct the police
IL they found any place where money is
being paid out to voters on the day of the
primary, to raid the place, arrest the par
ties and seize the funds. This simply
means that the buying must be cautiously
conducted.
OF course this large fund will not be
used altogether in the purchase of votes.
The old hands know of many ways in
which 10 dissipate campaign fund. Good
workers bring high figures, and a number
are doubtless already on the pay lists of
both sides. Workers are rated at 500
each, and considerable shifting about is
said to have taken place already. 1t Is
reliably stated that a well-known Citizens
Club worker was recently offered $1,000 by
the opposition for the services of himself
and his crowd, and that the offer was re-
fused. great deal of mony has been ex-
pended by both sides In paying the taxes
of voters in order to register them. 1t is
almost ivariably the rule that when a
voters taxes are paid to get him on the
list that his vote has also to be bought on
election day, and both sides doubtless
know whom they expect to buy.

THE NICARAGUAN CANAL.
Prof. johnson VIII Address Citizens
Monday Nay IA

Monday. May -,
Prof. Emory R. Johnson of the 18TH
milan Canal Commission has replied to a
recent telegram from President Purse of
the Board of Trade, expressing his pleas
ure at the Information that the Mayor
would call a meeting of the business men
and citizens at the City Exchange at noon
to-day, May IA, for the purpose of hear
ing from him upon the subject of the
Nicaragua canal.
Obviously, Prof. Johnson, as a member
of a government commission seeking in
formation could not ask for a public
meeting, and the action of the presidents
Of the Board of Trade and the Cotton
Exchange in anticipating his desires in
this matter, is evidently very acceptab BILE.
Prof, Johnson desires to secure informa-
ton, statistical and otherwise, concerning
the port of Savannah, and the probable
benefits which will result from the con-
structson of the canal. The meeting will
just what he desires in these respects,
and steps can then be taken to provide
the desired information.
The commission of which Prof. John
son is a member consists of the following
members: Rear Admiral John G. Walker,
Unted States navy, president; Hon. Sam

LETTER REGISTERING AT HOME
The New Postomce system Proving
Popular.

Popular.
Although the politicians have quit hunt
ing up voters to register, Uncle Sam s
letter carriers show no signs of letting
up. BY their system the ladies can reg
lister as well as the gentlemen.
The house-to-house system OF letter
and package registration by carriers rs
growing in favor, and promises to be an
experiment that wall result In having the
system continued in Savannah. So far,
Carriers M. T. Jones end George Tison
lead in the number OF registered letters
received at the homes.
The receiving of letters for registration
in the residential portion of the city, when
once thoroughly established, may be ex-
tended TO the business section. Those
who have failed to secure a copy of the
instructions furnished by the department,
explaining the system, should ask the
carrier on his next trip for a copy. as
carriers are provided with these copies for
distribution.
Letters prepared at home on Sunday
can be delivered to carriers on their first
call Monday morning.

VOTING BY NATIONALITIEs.
No Estimates Have Been Made by
the County Registrar.

The percentage Of the various nationaN-
ties and religions that have been regis
tered in the pending campaign have not
been made out by Registrar Sullivan, who
has had neither time nor opportunity to
satisfy himself on this subject. No &C
curate, or semi-accurate, estimate OF the
race based on such figures can, therefore,
be made.
Mr.. Sullivan estimates though, that a
very large number of voters possibly LOO,
or more, have been added to the list since
the last registration. These have come
from every county IN the state, and some
of them from adjoining states, and are
largely of what is known as the
american" vote. What results on the
election will be made by these additions
TO The INST of registered voters remains to
be seen, though the Citizens Club derives
from it a great deal of encouragement.

DECISION AGAINST WARSAW.
Separate street Cars for the Races
Need Not BE Furnished.


Judge Falligant decided yesterday the
suit of the Savannah, Thunderboit and
Isle of Hope Railway against the Mayor
and Aldermen Of .the town of Warsaw.
The decision was In favor of the plaintiffs
and directed that permanent injunction
issue in their favor.
The suit was originally brought because
of the attempt made by the municipal au-
thorities of the town to compel the street
railway company to furnish separate ears
or separate compartments for white and
colored passengers, in accordance with an
alleged state law ON this subject To this
action the street railway company Obj ected
that the state law did not contemplate
such total separation as had been indicat-
ed, and that eli that 1t required was that
white and colcred passengers should be
given separate seats and separated as far
as was possible. No other and further pro
vision was made in the code Of the state.
The matter was argued by the attorney
for the parties during the fall of last year,
At that time temporary restraic ing o.
der was granted, prohibiting he plaintiffs
from stopping the running of cars though
the town of Warsaw on the ground indi-
Gated in the petition. 1t was stated at the
time that irremedable damage would ftl-
low the action of the town authorities,
should they be permitted TO follow the
course they had mapped out and that they
had decided to pursue.
Judge Falligant has decided that the
state law does not require that sspara e
cars or compartments shall BE- furnished to
negroes, but that seperate seats shall be
furnished them, on electric and other
street cars, as far as it is practicable. I'm
der the law, as outlined in the ccde, the
decision of Judge Falligant was demanded
and none other cOuld have been given The
attorneys fer the town OF Warsaw ga re
their full consent TO the rendition of the
decree that was finally granted by Ju
Faligant.
