War Between Roosevelt
and Hanna.

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Senator
Platt's announcement last night at
dorse President Roosevelt to succeed
himself in 1904, and that if New York
and Pennsylvania both should come
out for Roosevelt it would decide the
question, is regarded by politicians
here as most important. 1t means
more than the mere announcement of
the New Workers. friendliness toward
Roosevelt. 1t means that Roosevelt
and Plat have reached clear under
standing, and this has direct bearing
upon the conflict that is looked upon
here as inevitable because of the riv-
airy between Roosevelt and Hanna
No one in public life and familiar
with the situation believes Hanna can
escape being candidate before the
national convention in 1904, even If
he tried, and few believe he will try.
If Roosevelt in the meantime obtains
the cooperation of such leaders as
Platt and Quay in his behalf the fight
is sure to be the most exciting in mod
ern political annals.
1t is said the reason for the APP.
pointment of James S. Clarkson as
Surveyor of the Port of New York
is clear since Platt's announcement.
Clarkson is, first of all, a stalwart of
Platt's type, and his re-entry into poll
tics means the efficient furtherance of
Platt's plans.
Incidentally such experienced men
as Clarkson and Postmaster General
Payne will bring Roosevelts forces
into such shape before the next cam.
paign that Hanna's managers will
have the time of their lives forcing
the Ohioan to the front. The inferno
cine strife in Ohio. in which Senator
Foraker is seeking to obtain control
of the State machine, is. adding to
Hanna's troubles.

CUPID CONVOY TO HER FLIGHT
Girl Adopts Tactics Her Father En-
PLAYED Years AGO.

Knoxville, Jan. 27-Bcn Scott, a
we'll known young railroad official and
Miss Zola Davis, a pretty girl only 16
years old figured in a sensational
elopement yesterday evening.
The young man has been paying the
girl devoted attention for some time,
but had been forbidden to call in fu-
ture by her father, Robert Davis, on
account of her youth.
Mr.. Davis suspected that something
was brewing and sent the girl to her
room early in the evening. But love,
in this case. laughed not only at lock-
smiths, but also at second story win
dOws. While the father was stand
ing at the front door watching for
Scott, the young man slipped to the
back of the house and caught the girl
in his arms as she jumped from the
window
A carriage was near by and the cou-
pie were driven Immediately to a min
ister's and were married before the
father found out that the girl had left
the room
A pretty sequel to the romance was
the confession of Mr.. Davis, after he
learned of the wedding, that he stole
Mrs. Scott's mother almost under sim
liar circumstances just 20 years ago
this month.

Jefferson, Ga. Jan. 27.-Fred Oliver,

| a criminal assault upon a young lady
of about 1S years and a member of
one of the most prominent families in
this section.
The attempt was made Saturday

returning home from the house of a
friend located just across the street
from her own home. When within a
very short distance of her door she
was approached by a negro man who
attempted to lay his hands upon her
She screamed and broke away from
the negros grasp. He fell, but got
up and made a second attempt, his

was seen that his clothing was cov-
cred in places with mud The negro
was taken in custody by Marshal j. j.

upon the negro, the weapon on one
side being covered with mud.
The negro was taken to the scene
of the attempted assault and the re-
volver placed in the imprint on the
ground where the revolver was seen to
drop by the young lady. divers weap-

cirCumstantial, is believed to form an
indisputable chain to surround Oliver

tramp supposed to be from Hardee-

Plant system passenger shed at 1870
o'clock yesterday morning by South

is supposed to have beaten his way
to Savannah on the train and to have
got off just as it slowed UP at the
depot. Ignorant of the fact that the
engine was backing in for the journey
northward, he stood on the track and
was caught under the wheels. His
body was left a shapeless and bleed

Savannah.
Savannah, Ga, Jan. 27.-Charles
Williams, a negro employe of the
Southern cotton oil mills, was run over
and ground to death Saturday night
by car No. II, of the Electric Railway
company.
Williams was riding a bicycle and
was within two blocks of his home. He
seemed to get confused and undertook
to pass in front Of the car, which was
already slowing up to take on a pas
senger. Both rider and bicycle were
ground up together under the car in

simple derailment had occurred The
car had to be raised in order to extri-
cate the mangled body and the frag-

a few blocks below the scene of this
accident just a year ago, throwing Mo-
