MRS. Jeff DAVIS TALKS
SCORES GENERAL MILES
IN WARM LANGUAGE
Letter Withdrawn From Badeau COL
lection Believed to be Forgery
But She Has Her Opinion
of Miles.

New York, May 2l.-Mrs. Jefferson
Davis, widow of the President of the
Southern Confederacy, pronounces the
autograph letter offered for sale in the
collection of General Adam Badeau. In
which a bitter attack Is made on Gem
eral Nelson A. Miles, forgery and not
the work of her husband. Through
some mysterious agency the letter was
withdrawn from the sale. and it Is
said that General Miles was the pur.
chaser and that he paid $500 for thu
faded record of one part Of his war
career that he wished to be forgotten.
Although Mrs. Davis denounced the
letter as forgery, the mention CT Gen.
eral Miles name aroused her in a mo-
ment. and she spoke OF him in the ut.
most bitterness OF spirit.
81 remember the incident perfectly, u
said Mrs. Davis to a reporter after she
had read the catalogue, but think
that letter is forgery. How can ever
forget that jailer or that imprisOn-
ment? But the language given here Is
not mine. 1t is unworthy OF me.
don't care IL General Badeau was Gen.
eral Grants private secretary; that let.

me. That II expresses contempt for

egon, while yet manipulating strong
position IN the politics Of the common
wealth, Mr. Mitchell owes debt oi
lifelong friendship and favors that
could have come from no other source.
II has been said lately that there
was quarrel between Walter II.
(Jack) Matthews, republican chairman
and United States marshal for ore
gon. and seator Mitchell, over this
very matter OF the endorsement Of d
senatorial candidate. Some who claim
10 know, assert that there Is In reality
no such quarrel. but that II has been
part Of a political game whereby
the Mitchell forces could be held in
position to meet all contingencies Mr..
Mitchell. being loyal to Fulton, and
yet desirous Of having a friend In the
opposition camp To look out for his
interests. II Is claimed that anything
that Matthews does win be agreeable
to the general plan Of Mr.. Mitchell,
aud 1t ls silly and cautiously hinted
thar II Is the Intention to hand a
bunch to Mr. Scott, on account c' old
scores No one knows. but that Is the
assertion, anyway.
The next question that arises is.
What will Multnomah county do in the
premises? VIII the local delegation
consent to a man from Astoria? In
short, will the Fulton program go
through without the flercest fight that
ever ragged In Oregon? That Is the
nroblem that today will absorb atten-
tion here when this statement goes to
the people. and throughout Oregon,
when it reaches the outside counties.

JUNIOR ORDER MEMS
STATE COUNCIL ENDED
w. r.. Dale of Georgia Appointed
National Organizer

The last days session of the conven-
ton of the states council of the Junior
Order United American Mechanics
which came to close last night, was
given up entirely to legislation. The
members met at their hall on York
street in the morning. sixty-dve strong,
and went into secret session.
AS forecasted by the Morning News,
the initiation fee was raised from IS
to $40, and steps were taken to throw
out inducements throughout the state
for the establishment of a uniform
rank. a discussion of the question re-
suited in a resolution looking to the
establishment of the rank as soon as
the order had obtained sufficient pro-
portions in the state, and urging the
members to bring about that result
as soon as possible.
Last night telegram was received
from the national counsellor, Hon.
George D. Bowers, from Altoona,
Penn, announcing the appointment of
Mr.. w. r. Dale to the post of national
organizer. The appointment is de-
served one, for possibly no one in the
order has done more inward
ganization in Georgia than has
Mr.. Dale. For the past year he
has given his entire time to the work,
and the results obtained have been
gratifying to the state and national
council alike.
Most of the delegates have returned
to their homes, but some remain in
the city as the guests of members of
the order. The visitors express them
selves as highly pleased with the re-
ception rendered them by the local
council and with the hospitality of the
citizens of Savannah generally.
The members of the order were elaJ-
ed over the success which the conven-
ton attained. The new members of the
order left Savannah embued with the
spirit of the order. promising next year
to make gratifying reports to the con-
vention which assemblies at Griffin.
