Charlottesville, has cut loose from his
Confederate brethren.
He has rendered his resignation as
commander of John Bowie Strange
Camp at Charlottesville, and seems de-
termined to have no more to do with
his old-time comrades in arms. 1t is
said that I'm view of Gen. Rosser's af-
filiation with the Republican party, his
comrades view his departure without
any symptoms of regret.
The trouble arose in the Grand
Camp over a report presented by In
spector- General Morton in which he
stated that some of the subordinate
camps in the State were not in touch
with the Grand Camp. and suggested
that the Grand body discuss the advis-
ability of reorganizing them so as to
increase interest in the work and
strengthen the Grand Camp.
All recognized this as an admirable
suggestion except Gen. Rosser. who,
after the report had been sent to n
committee. made fiery speech. saying
it was a reelection upon Confederate
soldiers who were in poverty. He
wanted the report acted on at once.
OUT OF ORDER.
AS the report had been sent to a
mes was pending, the Grand Comman-
der after pointing out that the proper
course for him to appear before
the committee having charge OF the re-
General RoSser appealed from the
decision of the chair, but 1T was I'M
animously sustained. He then clapped
his hat on his head and left the hall
in great anger. Soon after he took the
train from his home.
ONE KILLED, TWO INJURED.
An embankment on the line of the
Seaboard Air Line in the lower portion
of the city caved in this afternoon
while five men, all colored, were at |
work on it. Two escaped. but three
were buried, one so deeply that 1T took |
twenty minutes to dig him out. When |
found he was quite dead. His name
was John Ransom, native of this |
city.
The other two, John Smith and Ed
ward Lindsay, escaped with slight in |
jurieS.
STUDENTS SUSPENDED.
Several times recently parties I'M
known have tempered with the bell |
which calls the students to class at
Richmond College, cutting the rope.
tying up the clapper and in other ways
impairinE it's usefulness. Yesterday |
several students were suspended for |
declining to tell what they knew about |
the matter.
An investigation to-day showed that
outside parties were responsible for |
the trouble. The suspended students |
were at once reinstated and all is again |
harmonious.
