TO try FOR WORLDS RECORD
John J. Scannen Will Send The Alb
bot Against Time Next Season.

New York, Dec. 9.-Former Fire Com
missioner John J. Scannell has decided
to send his ex-champion trotter. The
Abbot, 2:03H, against the worlds tror-
ting record next season. Mr.. Scannell
has sent The Abbot to the Patchen
Wilkes farm at Lexington. KY, where
he viii be allowed to take things easy
until he is ready for his time trial.
Mr.. Scannell said that he was conf
dent that The Abbot could improve
upon the present record. The Abbot
was not at his best last season: in fact.
he only started once, and in that tin,e
was defeated by Chain Shot in slow
time. His poor showing was due to
sickness contracted early in the season.
While training for the proposed match
with Lord Derby. which was to have
taken place at Brighton Beach, The Alb
bot went lame, and tie match had to
be declared off.
He has come around all right now,
/ however. and his good condition leads
his owner to believe that he will be bet
f ter next season than ever before.
What the Abbot needs said Mr..
4 Scannell, lis a good rest. and that he
/ will receive this winter. I still believe
that he is the fastest trotter in the
world, and, barring accidents. he will
eclipse the record held by Cresceus.''

There are number of our farmers
who are still unsettled in business on

Corn is worth about dollar per bushel.
They claim they cannot buy corn to feed

We know quite q number of landlords
who have rented their lands out and
have gone to cotton mills, and a great
many renters who were broken up last
year by standing rent or giving one-third
of their cotton for rent. This cripples
the cotton mills. There are quite a
number of farms here that will be vacant

Sohloy Is no Hero, Neither Is Sampson.

The salient features of President
Roosevelt's dscision in the Sohley case
follow:
All the accusations against Schley,
based on his conduct prior to the battle
of Santiago, arethrown out. The Presi-
dent holds that if Admiral Schley erred
during that period his offenses were con-
doned by his retention as second in COM
mand.
On the question of commend the Presi-
dent says:
Technically Sampson commanded the
fleet, and Schley, as usual, tho western
division. The actual fact is, that after
the battle was joined not helm was
shifted, not gun WAS fired, not pound
Of steam was put on in the engine room
aboard any ship actively engaged in
obedience to the order of either Sampson
or Schley, save on their own two vessels.
1t was captains fight
Sampson was hardly more than tech
| nically in the fight. His only claim for
| credit rests upon his work as commander
in chief in planning to meet the Spanish
ships when they should come out.
Schley is entitled, as is CAPTAIN Cook,
in the fight. On the whole, the Presi-
dent finds that the Brooklyn did we'll,
though he considers the vessels "loop''
the "one grave mistake" made by any
American ship during the battle.
The President considers that the most
striking act of the battle was that of the
Gloucester, whose commander, Vain
right, pushed into the fight through a
hail Of projectiles in order that he might
do his part in destroying the two torpedo
boats. For this conduct wainwright was
entitled to receive more than any other
commander with the possible exception
of Clark, of the Oregon.
1t was just to Admiral Sampson that
he should receive greater advance in
numbers than Admiral Schley. There
was nothing done in the battle that war
ranted any unusual reward for either.
There is no excuse whatever from
either side for any further agitation OF
this unhappy controversy. TO keep it
alive would merely do damage to the
navy and to the country,
