For some time Dr. T. nj. Eastman.
George Bailey, George H. Miller and
X. K. Hagan, Uniontown councilmen,
have been secretly investigating the
Indebtedness of the borough. The
members named have the exact con-

known their investigation be-
fore meeting of the council with the
startling fact that the borough's in-
debtness figured close to 5000, 900. or
$50, 600 or $780, over the limit OF
Indebtedness. The investigation has
caused a sensation In Uniontown as
1T was thought by the majority of
the people that the borough's fnan-
cial condition was IN pretty substan-
tlal condition. The councilmen who
have undertaken the investigation say
this is only the starting OF search
that promises to develop some even
more startling facts before they finish
their work.

II. R. MOORE THE CHOICE.
Franklin County Voters Declare
for Him by Their Silence.

WINCHESTER, Tenn, Oct 2l---(Spec-
ial. 1.-The result Of the democratic
primary in this county Saturday was a
surprise to the supporters Of Messrs.
Best and Williams, and cause of re-
ioicing to the friends of Hon. II. r.
Moore, the independent candidate for
legislative honors, who is running for
the office in obedience to the wishes OIL
his friends, who, to number of nearly
!, 100 voters signed a petition request
ing him to run. He was not in the
primary, and in fact refused to have
anything 10 do with it, and the result t
Williams 300, Best 4l6, shows a decided
disinclination Of the voters of Franklin
county to support those candidates.
The approximate vote of Franklin
county is 5000, hence it is seen that
Messrs Williams and Best failed to
draw with their entire vote one-fourth
of the vote of the county, and what is
still more remarkable fell short 3S4
votes of polling the vote accorded Mr..
Moore by the signed petition.
At Huntland, Mr.. Moore's home place,
where 1856 votes were polled in the Au-
gust election, Messrs. Williams and
Best did not receive a single vote. Mr..
Moore's friends throughout the county
are enthusiastic oyer the outlook, and
feel that if Marion will support a gen
tleman who has the best interests of the
| two counties at heart, that be will be
elected by handsome majority.

Shock of Several Seconds
Duration Experienced at
Chattanooga.
HOUSES SHOOK AND
PEOPLE TERRIFIED
At Sewanee, Monteagle and
Tracy City and in Georgia
Shocks Were Felt.

Chattanooga, Oct lS.--A distinct
earthquake shock, accompanied by a
muffied rumbling like distant thunder,
was felt here this afternoon at five O.
clock. The shock was of several Sc
conds' duration and shook the houses
very perceptably in the city and sub
urbs. Dishes and windows ratified and
many people rushed from their homes
in fright.
At Lafayette, Ga, large vases were
thrown violently from the mantle in
one residence. On the streets the
shock was felt, the earth seeming to up
heave under the feet Of the pedestrians.
Reports of shocks at the same time
have been received from Trion, Ga, Sc
vance, Tenn and other towns in Ten
nessee and Georgia.
Two shocks we're felt at Sewanee, the
first very light one, about p. M, and
the second, which was more severe, a
bout p. m. The latter shock was very
distinctly felt The duration was but
few seconds, the waves appearing to
pass from south to north, rattling win
dows and shaking things up generally
Tracy City, Tenn, Oct. 90 Especial
Earthquake shocks were felt here and
at Monteagle Saturday, but were of
brief duration.

N. S, Elliot Advances to Office Of Vice.
Presdent.-.I. W. HOwe's New
Position.

j. T, Bowden of Whitwell, is the new
president of district No. 10, United
Mine Workers of America. Until his
election to the highest office in the dis
trict he was vice president of the organ
ization of No. 10. Owing to the vaca-
ting of the Office of president other
changes were made in the officers and
membership of the board of the district
organization. NJ. S. Elliot was elected
vice president in Mr.. Bowden's stead
The new vice president was formerly
a member of the executive board of the
district His place on the board was
taken by G. w. Kelley. This completes
the list of changes,
The new president Of district No. 10
was seen by reporter for The Journal
and Tribune last night. He SAID he
had nothing to give out regarding the
condition of the district when asked
regarding matters in this section A
further effort to have President Bow
den express himself regarding the
strikes in this district, one at Tracy Ci-
ty and one at Whitwell, Tenn, the lat
ter being the home of the new eXecu-
tive officer, was unavailing. Twelve
hundred men are out at Tracy City and
Whitwell. This is at the mines of the
Tennessee Coal and Iron company. In
the Birmingham district, where this
same company operates, 1900 miners
are out
The new presideut of district No. 1
is an Englishman. He commenced
work in coal mines when he was years
OF age. Until two years ago, when he
was 3S years of age, he had been work.
ing continuously at the business of min
ing coal from the time he first took it
up. For two years he has not done
active mining, President Bowden has
been vice president of district No. 10 for
seventeen months. Previous to his g.
lection to the vice presidency he was a
member of the executive board for one
year. He is fully acquainted with the
matters and workings of the district
despite the fact that he refused last
night to give out anything regarding
district matters.
Mr.. j. W. Howe, who leaves the local
organization, is soon to go with a coal
company as manager He has entirely

No. 10 organization The details of his
resignation have not been made pu b.
lie. A reporter made an effort to see
him before he left the city yesterday
but failed. However Mr. Howe will
probably make a statement regarding
his resignation at future date, as he
stated he would do so short time since.
