streams, some of which are rich in
mineral deposits. There is consider
able capital, however, being invested
in mining, and several smelters have
recently been erected in the state.
Another field which capitalists are

Of this section evidently DO not intend

This changed condition, brought
about by immigration and the intro

this state than perhaps in any other
state in the south, especially in the

rapidly dying out, and except in the
remote rural districts little is heard

newer generation look TO the future,
while the veterans of the Lost Cause
attempt to forget the sad past.

AS yet there are only few educa-

men are taught TO operate machinery
for the manufacture of cloth, but
Georgia is taking the lead in this
much-needed enterprise; also in tex
tile mills and the manner of conduct
ing them. There are not, however,
enough of these archaeological schools
in this state, nor in the south, TO edu-
cate specially a sufficient number OF
skilled workmen TO equal the increns-
ing demand. The greater portion of
the larger investments in this state is
in manufactures, and before these
factories are built it is necessary TO
have technically educated men to
manage and operate them. II is pro-
posed to cali an industrial educa-
tional convention" of the southern
states within the next few months.
The matter of establishing technolog-
zeal schools throughout the south and
educating young men in textile and
various other technical lines will be
the subject for discussion. Textile
and other mills are being rapidly built
throughout the south, especially In
Georgia. and they will continue TO in

GENERAL GREELEY SAILS.
Chief Signal Officer Says Philippine
War Is Now History.
(By Associated Press.)


New York, Oct. 26.-General Greeley.
chief of the United States signal service
in Washington, returned to New York
on Wednesday en- the Columbia, says a
London correspondent.
He was a recent caller at the American
embassy. General Greeley expressed
himself as highly pleased to get back
from the Philippines. He has no inten-
ton of returning. During his stay there
he completed network Of teleasAph lines
from one end of the archipelago to the
other.
The value Of this installation was
shown by the fact that over 10000 mes
sages day were transmitted between
the various military posts on the island.
The instruction was matter of his
tory, except in a few Of the outlying
islands, which were always in state of
rebellion, even before Admiral Dewey ar
rived at Manila.
Civil government was restored grad
ually, though" said General Greeley.
"and it will take some time to American
lie the islands. Over 10000 troops are
still there, but most of them are only
doing garrison duty"
The outlook for the islands was very
good, in his opinion, and lots Of money
might be made by anybody caring to
Fisk going out there.

WASHINGTON, Oct 26.-Having reached
a decision to check, at least temporarily,
the natural reduction which is going on
in the United States army in the Phil
ippines, as a consequence of the expira-
tion of terms of enlistment. Secretary

replacing these men from the forces ROW

particular organizations to exchange has
not been reached it is in contempla ton
to withdraw from the Philippines the

Twenty third infantry. the organizations
to return to the United States in the or
der in which they went to the islands.
Changes in Army Organization.
Before leaving the Philippines there
will be many changes in these organiza-
lions, however. for it is the intention to
exchange into them from the other reg
iments in the Philippines the men whose
terms of enlistment are about to expire.
To take the place of returning troops.
the department will send out the Elev-
enth, Twelfth and Fifteenth cavalry and
the Twenty-seventh Twenty-eighth and
Twenty ninth infantry.
The cavalry organizations will be
brought up to the maximum strength by
recruitment before they go out. while
the infantry regiments will be swelled
to the exceptional figure Of 1900 men
each.
In addition, at least 1000 men will be re-
cruited and sent out in battalion organ
izations for attachment to depleted reg
iments in the Philippines.
The quartermaster's department is
making every preparation to discharge
this heavy transportation problem. and it
is. believed that the government can be-
gin within a month the orders issued.

CASTRO CUTS EXPENSES,
Venezuelan PRESIDENT Displeased at
Tribe TRIBES Lack of Success.
(By Associated Press.)

(By Associated PreSS.)
New York, Oct. 26.-President Castro
of Venezuela mas sent a dispatch to
Senior Sarriel, president of the state of
Bolivar, announcing that circumstances
have required Clim to issue decree sus-
pending the grants of all expenses to
the several states, including grants of
expenditures for public instruction and
the clergy Of the republic.
A vessel sailing under British regis
try, which started from Port of Spain
for Barranqutlla, put into Cedros to seek
protection. Her captain said that she
had been chased by the Venezuelan gun
boat Miranda. Other reports call atten-
ton to this and similar acts perpetrated
by Venezuelan gunboats under command
Of General Ybarra.
The relations between President Cas-
tro and General Tribe Tribe, it is re-
ported, are seriously strained. owing to
the latter's failure to defeat the Colon
bian forces.
