ELKS' SMOKER.
Elks and Foresters Enjoy Themselves Frida,
Night.

The lodge OF Elks paid the forfeit for
not being able to beat the Foresters
playing base ball, by giving a smoker,
Friday night, in honor of the victorious
ball tossers.
An elegant lunch had been prepared
by VIM. McDermott for the occasion,
which was amply supplemented with
Aberdeen beer and choice cigars, and
the Foresters became aware that the
Elks were royal entertainers.
The night was pleasantly spent with
music, short speeches, singing, dancing
and story telling, and if anybody present
failed to have jolly time the fault was
with his liver.
A mock duel with pistols loaded with
blank cartridges, by J. A. Hood and
Phil. S. Locke, created quite a commo-
ton among those who were not "onto"
the joke. More than 100 members of
both lodges were present, and they all
enjoyed themselves to the limit.

OBITUARY.


Mr.. Charles Collins died yesterday
morning at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. N. C. Collier, in st. Louis, Mo-,
after an illness of seven weeks from
dropsy of the heart. MIR. Collins was
Go years old and had been resident
of Savannah nearly his entire life up
to year ago, when he went to st.
Louis to engage in the sawmill bust
ness. He was twenty years master
mechanic of the Savannah, Florida
and Western Railway. He served his
apprenticeship in the Central Railroad
shops with the late d. ID. Arden. For
some time he was superintendent of
the Tybee Railroad. Mr.. Collins was
a native of Ireland, but came to this
country and to Savannah when he
was lad. He was widely known
and respected and the announcement
of his death will cause much regret.
He leaves three daughters, Mrs. Col
lier, and Misses Alice and Jennie M.
Collins of st. Louis, and one son, DR..
j. III. Collins of this city. He leaves
also sister, Mrs. A. M. Reardon. His
wife died two years ago.
The remains will leave st. Louis to-
day. accompanied by Mrs. Collier and
Miss Alice Collins and are expected to
reach Savannah Monday morning. The
funeral will take place from the resi-
dence of Dir. Collins, No. 235 Gordon
street. east, probably the same day.
MIR. Collins had been in i'll health for
some time. His son, who had been
with him for some days, had just re-
turned home when he received the
news of his fathers death.

tinct quarters.
An attempt has been made" says
the historian quoted above, ito re-
heye Gen. Sherman of the terrible CEN
sure of having deliberately fired and
destroyed Columbia, and to ascribe the
calamity to accident or to carelessness,
resulting from an alleged order of
Gen. Hampton to burn the cotton in
the city. To the imputation
against Gen. Hampton, that chivalrous
officer, whose word friend or foe never
had reason to dispute, has replied in
a public letter: L deny emphatically
that any cotton in Columbia was fired
by my order. / deny that the citizens
set fire to thousands of bales in the
streets" 1 deny that any cotton was
set on fire when the Federal troops
entered the city. l pledge my
self to prove that I gave a positive
order by direction of Gen. Beauregard
that no cotton should be fired; that
not one bale was on fire when Gen.
Sherman's troops took possession of
the city; that he promised protection
to the city; and that in spite of his
solemn promise, he burned the city to
the ground deliberately, systematical-
ly and atrociously.' The facts are that
Columbia was fired in twenty different
before the commencement of the fire
a Federal officer had given warning at
the Ursuline Convent that Columbia
was doomed"

Truly can it be said of him that the

of Wade Hampton. his grandfather
having fought under Marion and sum-

career he has proudly sustained the

he was one of our greatest soldiers, a

citizen and a pure man.

New York, April 11.-Louisville and
Nashville was the feature of to-day's
stock market, as it was yesterday, but
to-day the rumors that a corner had
been arranged to squeeze shorts gave
way to reports that the stock was be-
ing bought in order to secure control
of the company. The corner theory for
the advance in the shares was dissi-
pated by a statement from President
Keppler of the Stock Exchange to the
effect that he had been assured that
there was no intention to corner the
Louisville and Nashville stock. and
that the stock would be available to
borrowers.
ANOblAAAi6 was cPd1 Shb LO-QchJB OOJOli
heavy transactions in the stock, to in
dictate that any one was buying for
control, and nothing could be learned
as to the identity of the supposed pur-
chasers, except that the speculative
world connected the movements of the
stock within the last two or three days
with the announcement made on Mon
day by the Louisville and Nashville
directors that the company had ac-
quired a majority interest in the At
lanta, Knoxville and Jellico. The
state was made at that time that this
purchase put the Louisville road into
competition with the Southern Railway
between Cincinnati, Knoxville and At
lanta The Southern is a property
with which j. p. Morgan & Co. are
connected, and to-day 1t was reported
that Southern interests desired a con-
trolling interest in Louisville. These
reports, however. were denied by Sam
uel Spencer president of the Southern,
who said he knew nothing of such
intention on the part of his road.
Late in the day ]. S. Bache & Co.
made public a brief photographic cor
respondence which they had with the
Rothschilds in London. They an
nounced that they sent the following
cablegram to the Rothschilds:
1--WE hear control of Louisville Sc
cured by Morgan, who bought your
holdings at lis. Can you confirm or
deny?"
The reply of the Rothschilds was as
follows:
1--WE have received your cablegram.
We know absolutely nothing about re-
ported negotiations between Morgan
and Louisville company"
The trading in the stock all day was
very active. 1t opened at 11S, yester-
days close, sold down to 116A and then
advanced to 1221a, after which it re-
coded again to 1908. In the after
noon the stock sold back to 1885. The
sales for the day were 156,900 shares,
exclusive of $4,000 shares of new stock
authorized on Monday, which has not
been listed, the total issue is $4,000
shares.

FILIPINOS GOOD LABoRERS.
Gen. Macarthur Speaks Highly of
Their Capacities for DeveIOpment.

Gen, Macarthur Speaks Highly of
Their Capacities for Development.
Washington, April 11.-When Gen.
Macarthur resumed his testimony be-
fore the Senate Committee on the Phil
ippines to-day. Senator Dubois asked
a number of questions concerning the
efficiency of Philippine labor. The
General said there were about 400 ma
tives employed in a certain corral in
Manila, and that for this work they
received SIS in gold per month, while
Americans received $40. The Filipinos
were, he said, quite efficient in
this work. He also expressed the opin-
ion that the natives would be found
equal to the task of cultivating the
agricultural lands of the islands.
Replying to Senator Patterson, Gen.
Macarthur said there were few fac
tories in the islands, but that he be-
lleved the F'ilipinos were capable of de-
velopment as artisans.
"They were successful" he said,
wherever dizziness of touch is neces-
sary. There is, in brief, no question
of the power of the Filipinos as peo-
pie to reach a high standard of de-
velopment in any direction"
Replying to further questions from
Mr.. Patterson, the witness detailed
the situation at Manila when he ar
rived there in July, 1898. The state
of amity between the two forces was,
he said, good, and the Filipinos evil
IDENTIFY looked upon the Americans in
the light of deliverers.
The witness answered a number of
questions relating to the firing by the
American sentinels on a Filipino patrol
when the first battle with the Fill
pinos began. which, he said, would
have been justified under the circum-
stances had there been no order what
ever to halt. He said that on the next
morning he had ordered an advance
of the American forces.
with the result" remarked Senator
Patterson, that 5000 Filipinos were
killed or wounded"
Fortunately with the result" the
witness responded, that a great vic
tory was won by the American army"

ously defended and made a point of
decisive contest in Sherman's devastat-
ing pathway. Gen. Hardee failed to
grasp the situation, believing that
Charleston was the objective point Of
the Federal commanders attack. In
this dubiety of perception and purpose
there was no adequate force to check
the onward march of the Union army
The only Confederate troops which con-
tested Sherman's advance upon Column
bia consisted of Gen. Hampton's
mounted command, and, though they
made a stubborn resistance, their OPP
position could not, of course, be more
than that of severe skirmishing. Yet
to the last it was hoped that Columbia
might be saved. ut. was asserted that
the corps of Cheatham and Stewart
were making forced marches, with
view to a junction with the troops un-
der Beauregard; and such was the
spirit of the Confederate troops, ana
one of the generals at least, that al
most at the moment when Shermans
advance was entering the town Hamp-
toms cavalry was in order of battle,
and only awaiting the order to charge
IT," But the horrors of a street fight
in a defenseless city, filled with Wo-
men and children, were prudentiy
avoided, and the Confederate troops
were drawn off from the scene at the
very hour when the Federals were
entering it. The gallant and chivalrous
Hampton was eager to do battle to the
last. When it was proposed to display
a white flag from the tower of the city
hall. he threatened to tear it down.
"He reluctantly left the city, and so
slowly that a portion of his command
passed on the road to Winnsboro' in
sight of the advance of the enemy,
giving it the idea of flank movement
of cavalry"

men in Hamptons command were kill

Aug. 8, 1858, and in 1864, after several

Guided junction with Hunter and the
capture of Lynchburg. In 20 days he
captured over 5000 prisoners and much
material of war, with a loss of 719 men.
Gen. Hampton was made commander
of Lees cavalry in August, 1864, with
the rank of lieutenant general. In
September of the same year he struck
the rear of the Federal army at City
Point, bringing away 400 prisoners and
2,4S6 beeveS. Soon after in another &C
ton he captured 500 prisoners. In one
of these attacks he lost his son in bat

Subsequently Hampton was detached
to take command of Gen. Joe John

to arrest the advance of Sherman's
army northward from Savannah in
the spring of 1865. 1t had been hoped
