spect the Republican party
 The List of Applicants.
 The Department of Justice announces that the following men were applicants for Judge Bruces position:
 City Court Judge James w. Lapsley and Circuit Judge John Pelham of Anniston
 Former State Senator Oscar R. Hund- ley and former Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court R. W. Walker of Hunts ville
 United States District Attorney William Vaughan and J. A. w. Smith of Bir- mingham.
 Former Congressman B. H. Craig of Selma.
 James Jackson of Tuscaloosa.
 Judge William L. Chambers and for mer Judge Thomas R. Roulhac of Shelf field.
 Congressman Ariosto A. Wiley, United States District Attorney Warren S. Reese, and Edward B. Jones, a brother of Gov ernor Jones, all of Montgomery.
 Simultaneously with Governor Jones' appointment comes the announcement from the White I1ouse that the President has turned down the South Carolina regu- lar Republican organization as well as that of Alabama. Senator McLaurins s man Loomis Blalock. has been selected for the internal revenue collectorship Along the same line comes the news that the Republican National Committee has appointed John G. Capers. a Democrat in the place of the late Republican Ma tional Committeeman of South Carolina.
 Accordingly there is much speculation as to the course the Republican organiz- ations will pursue towards President Roosevelt. While there is considerable gossip as to the possibilities of the stren- uous life arising between the President and the southern regulars. there does not at this time seem to be anything to war rant the statement that a split will take place.
 All the office-holders in the south are Republicans, and as a matter of sef-pres- ervation they are more apt to openly com mand the Presidents action than take the other course. As for as the Demo- crats are concerned they express confi- dence that their party will lose nothing by President Roosevelts southern policy. It is an experiment they do not fear in the least.

ScHLEY DID HIS PART WELL
FoIger of New Orleans Declares That Spanish Vessels Could Have Easily Escaped On
 Dark Night.

Washington, October 7.-Lieutenant cupied the greater part of the time of the Schley court of inquiry as a wit ness. He was followed on the stand by Capt William L. Folger, com the Spanish war.
 Lieutenant Dyson also was recalled to add some details to his former tes- timony concerning the coal supply of ago blockade. Commander Hodgson repeated and extended his story of the battle of July 3, giving the opinion that Commodore Schley's conduct on that occasion was such as that of a commander-in-chief should have been.
 He also explained at some length his correspondence with Admiral Schley concerning the alleged colloquy between them while the Santiago en- gagement was in progress. He said he had no controversy with the com mander, but he repeated that the Com modore had said Damn the Texas when told that that vessel was In danger.
 Captain Folger said that the bom- bardments of the Cristobal Colon on May 31 had been eminently successful in developing the strength of the Span ish shore batteries and had shown them to be very weak. He also said that if the Spanish vessels had at tempted to escape at night they could not have been seen by the blockading fleet in bad weather.
 Doyle and Rodgers.
 The days proceedings began with the recall of Lieutenant Doyle and Comman- der Rodgers for the purpose of correcting their previous testimony, and when they had been excused Lieutenant Commander Hodgson, navigator of the Brooklyn dur ing the Santiago campaign, resumed the stand. This was his third sitting, and when he began today's testimony the judge advocate had not entirely completed his questions. There were still few of tne ietteis cohstitutihB the correspond- ence between the witness and Admiral Schley. and when they were concluded Captain Lemley and MT. Hanna proceed ed with their questions.
 When the reading of the Schley-Hodg son correspondence had been concluded, Captain Lemley asked hr. Hodgson whether his denial of the colloquy be- tween himself and Commodore Schley had eyer been published entidely. MT. Hodg-
