WASHOUT
ALL TRAINS OVER THE SOUTH
ERN ARE AGAIN ARRIVING
MANY HOURS LATE.

There is another washout on the
Southern railway and all trains be-
tween Brunswick and Macon are again
arriving late and it will probably be
three or four days before the regu-
lar schedule will be resumed.
The washout this time is about one
mile from Everett City on the Alta
maha river and is said to be a very
bad one. No trains over the Soutnera
have passed Everett since 10 O'Clock
yesterday.
The passenger due here at 2:S5 yes
terday afternoon did not arrive unit
about 8 las night. and was then com
Ipelled to go from Jesup to Waycross
over the Plant System track and
come to Brunswick over the track Of
the Brunswick and Western.
The 9;05 Southern last nigu, left
over the Plant System track, which
will be used as far as Albany. The
train VIII then branch off on the Cen
tral and go to Macon where Ineir
track will again be used.
This makes the distance to Atlanta
a great deal longer tnan by the reg
ular route, and trains will therefore
be very late in arriving Brunswick
today and until the washout is re-
paired.
1t is understood that large force
lof hands have been put to work and
through trains will be run as soon as
possible over the line.
The News telephoned to Everett
at a late hour last night, and it was
learned that the river was still on
a rise, but the situation is not a seri-
GUS one.

GENERAL KITCHENER WILL
NOT BE RECALLED
London Officials Say Such a Thing
Would Be Absurd.


Would Be Absurd.
London, March 14-Rumor mon
gers are pro1ting by the lack of de-
eiled information respecting the mil
lta1y s.Suation in the lIansvaal They
are repeating silly inventions about
the recall Of Kitchener, the return OF
Lord Roberts to South Africa, and the
promotion of French as commander in
South Africa.
These reports are dismissed with
contempt by officials and military men
as even more preposterous than the
assumption that Delarey will re-estab-
lish the siege OF Mafeklng or make a
dash Tor Johannesburg Lord Salisbury
has decisive information in determin-
| ing the selection of the commander OF
the forces in South Africa, and Lord
Kitchener has been his favorite gen
eral from the outset. 1t was Lord
Salisbury who suggested the appoint
ment Of General Kitchener as Lord
Roberts chief OF staff when General
Buffers campaign went wrong after
Colenso, and there is no evidence that
the prime minister is dissatisfied with
the results of recent operations.
Information is required respecting
the column which Lord Methuen ex-
pected to join when he set out from
Vryburg, but otherwise there has been
no apprehension on the part of the
military authorities of serious results
from the recent defeat, wnich was
mainly due to a panic among the I'M
seasoned yeomanry. 1t seems prob
able, however, that the number of
Beers under De wet who succeeded in
breaking through the British block
house lines was considerably larger
than official reports indicated, and
that a junction may have been effect
ed with Delarey.
The newspapers are puzzled to ac-
count for the release of General Meth
uen, out they generally give credit to
Delarey for acting with great mod
Grafton, courtesy, and tact. The Daily
Mail expects to see either General
Cronje or Genrsal Yiloen returned to
the Beers in exchange for the British
general.
