dueers feared so much as il was the
placing Of a club in the hands Of the
sugar trust with which it could belabor

that at present the trust keeps the price
of refined sugar as high as possible on the
coast and sells it in the interior, the nat

Was RELIEVED AT
HIS own REQUEST
Lieutenant Clayton Not Re-
called by State Department.
Records Sh5v Ee joined His Regiment
-Four Months Before Alleged "Christ-
mas B,awi" and Duel Challenge.

Recent reports to the effect that First
Lieutenant Powell Clayton. Jr.. Fifth
United States Cavalry. had been recalled
By this Government from his assignment
as military attache OF the United States
Embassy in the Citr of Mexico in conse-
quencc of his refusal TO fight duel are
denied on authority, and the records are
cited to prove, as they do, that Lieut..
Clayton had been relieved four months
prior to the date of the trouble in which
he is alleged to have been involved.
Alleged christmas Brawl."
According to the reports recently cir
culated. Lieut.. Clayton became involved
in q Christmas brawl," which resulted
in a challenge to him from one of the
participants. Lieut.. Clayton. it was as
serted. declined the challenge. and this
caused so much adverse criticism and
feeling that his usefulness 10 the United
States, it was asserted. was brought to
an end necessitating his recall.
The records show that Lieut.. Clayton
left Mexico August s. 1901 and joined his
regiment at Fort Aiyer, Va. and that he
was relieved at his own request. A day
or two before he left he was the guest
OF honor at a banquet which was attended
by many men prominent in official and
social life.

Weakley, chairman of the Jelks state campaign committee, had heard enough to be fully assured that his candi- date had won a decisive victory. By g o'clock both headquarters were crowded with eager partisans. The ex-governor remained at his headquarters in the Nor ris looking over the returns until nearly 10 o'clock and then went home, leaving his son. Forney Johnston, in charge.
 The supporters of Governor Jeiks thronged to the Metropolitan hotel and cheered as encouraging returns were read out by J. W. Brown. who stood up- on a high stand. In the street and in the lobby of the hotel as we'll as in headquar<er rooms on the second floor, there was great rejoicing.
 At the headquarters of the Jelks county campaign committee, opposite the Metropolitan, a large crowd was also in evidence. While 1t was felt all along that Governor Jelks would carry the state by a good majority, some of the Jelks supporters were inclined to be- lieve that ex-Governor Johnston would

 Both of the state headquarters were open until after midnight. but the crowds had thinned out by Il 80 o'clock. the Jelxs partisans going home happy and the Johnston partisans going home hoping that fuller returns Tuesday might be fav- orable to their favorite.
 There was considerable interest in the general state ticket and in the county ticket, including, of course. the legislative candidates.

 The primary here was conducted with absolute honesty, and all good demo- crats expressed themselves as more than pleased with the plan.
