GRAU COMPANY HERE
QUICK RUN MADE BY L. 6 N.
 VIII TROUPE.
Depot Was Again Packed With Peo- pie Yesterday and Last Night. Roads are Doing Tremendous
 Business This Week.

Another of the good results accruing from the splendid track that Superlnten- dent Mckinney has on his division be- tween here and Mobile came yesterday morning in the handling of the Grau Opera special.
 The train was delivered here by the South and North division from Birming- ham at 3:30 and at 3:43 the Mobile and Montgomery people pulled out for Mobile Engineer Cooley with Engine 250 pulled the train with Captain John Elliott in charge. It was composed of three bag gage cars, three heavy compartment cars for the prima donnas, two Pullmans and A couple of day coaches-ten heavy cars in all.
 In the run down six minutes was lost at Greenville and six minutes at the Chicas- sabogue bridge on account of an open draw and even then they rolled into Mobile at ten minutes after o'clock, just about four hours running time. The run to New Orleans was made in about four hours and at :55 the special was in the station at the Crescent City.
 Among the passengers on the south bound Louisville and Nashville train, No. g. last night were twelve men who will form the crews of the skulls from St. Louis in the regatta today. The two boats were in a Wabash baggage car of the train, the car being tightly locked on the trip from St. Louis here.
 Yesterday was decidedly the biggest day that the local railroads have had this week and probably one of the heaviest in their history
 From early morning until after o'clock in the afternoon special trains poured into the shed until there was perfect jam of people streaming across the platforms. Captain Phil McRae, station master. an extremely conservative man puts the number of people handled during the day at something like 5'OOO.
 Last night the scene at the station eoualled that of the day-a mass of humanity packed the general waiting rooms and every inch of space between the waiting room and gates to the shed. | There inc crowd stayed most of the night | the special and some of -he regular | trains holding until nearly midnight. The depot employees almost had lock | jaw through answering the endless flow of questions fired at them.
 General Passenger Agent Stone of the l Louisville and Nashville, will be up from New Orleans on train No. tomorrow | evening and Sunday he will take a trip | over the Birmingham Mineral.
 Master Mechanic Minto of the Louis | ville and Nashville shops at Mobile, | went down on train No. yesterday | morning after d trip north. |

 Next in point of numbers to the trunks tried by Recorder Tarver came the Fes- tival fighters. From the quantity of black eyes, bumps, cuts and bruises dis played it would seem that beligerent citi- gems have been saving up their energies to expend them on each other during the fair. Be this as it may-it Is certain that more fights have occurred this week than Montgomery has known in all the prevt- ous weeks of 1901 combined.
 In all more than twenty fights nave been aired in the court since Monday to say nothing of those which escaped the lynx-eyed officers of the law.
 To all the tales and explanations or the fighters and their focks of witnesses Re corder Tarver listened with remarkaple patience and he showed wonderfuf apii- ity to get down to the grain of truth In each case through the chan or partisan testimony delivered.
 One of the features of the court yes te.

 Just before the Recorders Court ad, journed. Chief of Police Gerald arose ana made a brief speech to the court. lie said that in behalf of the Police De partmcnt of the city he desired to thank the retiring Recorder for courtesies ex- tended.
 ''The relations between the Police De- partment and the Recorder has always ben most pleasant" he said.
 Then he spoke of the excellent ad- ministration of Recorder Tarver. He said he had been attending the Police Court ever since the position of Recorder was established in Montgomery and he did not know of an official who had been more faithful in the discharge Of his duties than Recorder Tarver and 1t was with keen regret that the official rela- tions between them were about S, to .css cease sn which he thanked the Chief for his kind words.

Captain Marchant of the Phoenix City Military May Not Resion

The office of the Adjutant General ves- terday morning received a letter from 70 r. Coulter, First Lieutenant of the in. fantry company which is located at Phe- nix City stating that the members of the company had held a meeting and unania mously passed resolutions requesting Ca tain J. r.

ed in such manner that he died few
days later. For this crime william
Henderson was also arrested, and after
a sensational trial was found guilty
OF murder in the second degree. He
was sentenced for life and is now in the
anomalous position of convict who
has to serve out eight years after he is
dead.
1t is these cases-cases that Mortified
the community--that are being inves-
tigated by the grand Jury. The crimes
were so similar that 1t was easy to see
that they were committed by the same
crowd, but up to this time only two
persons have been arrested for the
Bender robbery and one for the Har-
tons case, though 1t is known that
there were at least five men in both Of
the cases.

indict them. It Is conceded to be a
difficult matter, but two of the promin-
ent witnesses in the. trial of William
Henderson are said to be aiding to a
great extent to fix crime on at least
one of them. These two are Isaac
Stripe, of Greentown and the woman
evangelist, Mrs. Gates, who was holding
service in Stripes meeting house on
the night the alleged slayers of John

MRS. GATES HERE.
Mrs. Gates has been in Canton. She
was here Tuesday. She was in the
county Jail. She saw the suspects.
1t was all done very quietly but she
saw them. Prosecutor Day, Sheriff
Zaiser and another man are said to have
accompanied her to the door of the
jail and then told her to go in and look
around. She did so. 1t is said she got
a good view of everybody in the corri-
dor and when she came out she was
asked for her verdict.
"That man sitting over there" she
IL said to have remarked, as she indi-
Gated him with her finger, ''is one Of

night and had fight with Stripe"
She had indicated Jack Donahue.
During the Henderson trial she gave
testimony that supported that of Isaac
Stripe and to her testimony and that
of Stripe was due the verdict OF
guilty. She had not claimed to have
as good view of the men as Stripe
had, as she was not SO close to them,
but in general way her Identification
was accepted. 1t is therefore apparent
that great Importance attaches to her

Washington, Sept. 25.-Rear Admi-

to be naval clique, organized in the
interest of Rear Admiral Sampson, is

The log of the Texas was the issue
during the morning. Some witnesses
have told of the movements Of the
Brooklyn with reference to interfering
with and endangering the safety of
the Texas, and 1t is a naval regulation

Claxton, chief machinist, testified TO
having received orders for full steam
astern, during the early part of the
engagement. This, it is claimed, was
to keep the Texas from being rammed
by the Brooklyn.
Admiral Cotton, who also delivered
dispatches to Schley before Santiago
engagement, was put on the stand.
He told of the delivery of dispatches
to Schley which contained the opinion
of navy department, that the Spanish

after the receipt of this dispatch that
Schley started to Key West to coal.
Cotton stated that 1t was not SO
rough but that he could have coaled
his ship Harvard on the day that
Schley said it was too rough to coal
at sea. Then came the discussion Of
Schley's message. In the original
Schley said; 1T is to be regretted that
