Justice Clark and Judge Justice.

To the Editor: No Confederate SOL
dier ocepies any one of the twelve seats
from North Carolina in the two houses
of Congress.
Next year we are to elect ten Superior
Court judges and three Supreme Court
justices. OF the many proposed for these
thirteen positions, only two are those of
Confederate soldiers: Judge NJ II. JUS
tice for the Superior Court of his dis
trict, and Judge Walter Clark for Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court
1t is lamentable fact that the 1875. 600
men North Carolina sent to the front in
1876 are to be represented by only
two out of twenty-eight of the highest
posts of honor. Such is the effect of the
rapid lapse of time, though neither
Judge Justice nor Judge Clark are old
men.
1t Is gratifying to the veterans and
their friends. however, that neither of
these two gentlemen has any opposition.
This is as it should be, not only on ac-
count Of their services since the war,
but during it. The old soldier should
not be entirely forgotten.

Remarkable Spring in Florida.

AS a part of the water resources OF
the country, the United States Geologi-
cal Survey is studying the wonderful
Florida springs and lakes, from which
most of the rivers of the State have
their rise. Kissengen Spring In Polk
county is one of these. The water has
q temperature of 10 degrees Fahrenheit.
and is strongly impregnated with sui
phur, iron and other ingredients that
characterize artesian waters In that re-
gion. The spring is evidently natural
artesian we'll. The water all comes from
one point, gushing up vertically with
great force through circular orihce in.
the bottom OF the basin and although the
basin is thirty feet deep or more the
fcrce is so great that the water directly
over the oriice is considerably higher
than the surface of the lake at the banks.
While swimming in this delightful pool
ii is found to be exceedingly difflcult to
Keep in position over this spring boil

measured by tn photographers Of the
Geological Survey was found to be 1900

Raynsr on the Floor.

Washington, Jan. 6.-Hon Isidor Ray
ner, the counsel for Admiral Schley, of
the Court of Inquiry spent some time on
the floor of the House of Representatives
today. He Had been at the Supreme
Court and later visited the House, where
he served as member for some years.
Mr.. Rayner joined Representative Cum
mings, of New York, a member of the
House Committee on Naval Affairs and
learned from him the general situation of
affairs concerning the many bills pro-
posed in the Schley case. Mr.. Rayner
said later that his visit was without
bearing on the admiral's case, although
being among old friends he had taken oc-
casion TO learn the general condition Of
affairs.
In this connection it is under
stood that the friends of Admiral Schley
have expressed approval of the bill which
has been introduced making the judg-
ment of Admiral Dewey the judgment OF
the Congress. However, the informal
talks today led to the conclusion that a
bill of this character was not likely to
be reported from the Naval Committee
and that if action was to be taken it
must be on one of the various other plans
pending.

LONG DEFENDS NAVY
DEPAR TMENT
Nelson Criticised. Distribu-
ton ofPrize Money.
Long Says Under Law Sampson Was Entitled
10 One Twentieth Whether Present
al Battle or Not.
(By the Associated Press. }

Washington, Jan. 6.-Secretary Long
has addressed 10 Senator Knute Nelson,
of Minnesota, long letter defending tne
Navy Department against what is de-
clared To be unfliendly criticism in con-
nection with the distribution of prize
money and bounty. The letter is called
for by one from the Senator. asking for
information on this point for the use of
a Western newspaper.
The Secretary declares that the criti-
cism that the department has discrimi-
mated in favor of Admiral Sampson and
against Admiral Schley in the distribu-
tion of prize money and bounty is unjust
because the department has no control
OF this matter, the money being dis
tributed from the Treasury and all ques-
tions of law and fact relative to prize
and bounty having been determined by
the courts. The Secretary calls atten-
! ton to the laws touching prize and
bounty as they existed at the beginning
of the Spanish war; and he says that
though advised by the Attorney General
that it might make a distribution, the
Navy Department preferred to place the
matter in the Court of Claims, and so
far from displaying favoritsm, adopted
the most effective means in It's power
to secure just determination by courts
of law of the rights of all concerned.
Touching the claim of Admiral Samp-
son for bounty at Santiago the Secre-
tary says that the distribution was made
under a decree of the Court of Claims,
which he cites, and from which no appeal
was taken. He further points out that,
Under the prize laws, the commander in
chief of the fleet is entitled to his 'one
twentieth" of bounty by virtue OF his po-
sition as commander in chief, whether
he is personally present during the en-
gagement or not. Says the Secretary:
"As commander-in chief Admiral
Sampson would. therefore, under the law,
have been entitled to his share of the
bounty for the destruction of the Span
ish ships at Santiago if he had been on
the north shore of Cuba at the time This
vas the law, for which the Navy Depart
roent was in no wise responsible"
On this point, the Secretary says that
the department itself was the first to
realize the inequalities of this law, and
to make the Recommendations which led
to it's repeal, so that "a rather amusing
feature of the attacks made upon the
Navy Department as the Secretary puts
it, is that the administration is blamed
more than two years after il had cured
the evil. The Secretary concludes his
letter with an extract from the report of
the Auditor of the Treasury for the
Navy Department showing the status of
the prize money and bounty cases, yet
unsettled owing to delays in the courts,
and predicting a settlement within one
year

Washington, Jan 6.-The United

Edward H. Gaynor. Green and Gavnor
are charged with being in completely with

dict The opinion was delivered by Jus
tiee Peckham.
Commenting upon the action of the
New York court in ordering the removal
of the defendants in Georgia for trial
Justice Peckham, who delivered the
opiIion of the court, said:
We think that a fair Interpretation OF
the language used by the district Judge
in granting the application for the war
rant of removal shows beyond question
that from the evidence taken by the
commissioner the judge was of the opin-
ion that there existed probable cause
and that the defendants should therefore
be- removed for trial before the court in
which the indictment was found. The
judge says he did not express any opin-
ion whatsoever on the merits of the case
He was not called upon to do so. 1t was
sufficient if, all the evidence being taken
into account there existed such probable
cause for believing the defendants guilty
as to warrant their removal for trial of
the offense charged"

EMMA BURGLARS TOHANG
Capt. Potter Here and Urges Governor
to Commute Death Sentences.
JACKSON AND ROSE TO HANG SANE DAY.
Remarkable Number Of Executions to Take
Place that Day and Wilson VIII Have
The First Since Anli.beIIum
Days

Governor Aycock yesterday fixed
Wednesday, February 26th as the date
for six executions.
The six men who are to pay the death
penalty are the four Emma burglars.
Andrew Jackson, the Lincoln county
burglar and ]. H. Rose the Wilson
county murderer. The cases came to the
executive office from the Supreme
court, where new trials were denied
While six executions in North Carolina
in one day are out Of the ordinary. the
conviction of four men for burglary and
the imposition of the death sentence in
each case is probably unprecedented
1t is understood that an application for
executive clemency in behalf of at least
two of the burglars is being prepared in
Buncombe, but as yet no formal petition
his reached the executive office. Cant.
T. w Patton, OF Asheville, called on the
Governor Saturday and urged the com
mutation OF the deathh sentences.
While it is not known that the Gov
ernor will interfere with the decisiop of
the jury and the court il is stated that
MlliS anu 0dlliSs lWO u hAle COhuNIlAtNu
men, have a better shovlnAg for exeQu-
tive clemency~ than ,tna cnpaEd IN,
ions. Judge Douglass Of the Sfne
court dissented from the decision Of the
court as to the guilt Of these two, hold
ing that they were only guilty Of burg
larry in the second degree. Foster and
Johnson made the entrance in the store
and did the shooting, while Mills and
Gates stood on the outside.
Andrew Jackson, a white man, will be
hanged for burglary on the same day in
Lincoln county. There is now petition
before the Governor in his behalf, urg-
ing executive clemency. He entered a
house which was only occupied by two
women and when he was discovered by
them he attacked both savagely. One
OF the women was very seriously cut
with knife and at the trial a little child
born was shown to the jury and had
birthmarks corresponding to its moth
er's wounds. jackson eluded the Off
GERS for nearly year and was finally
captured in South Carolina, tried at
Lincolnton and sentenced to hang.
The Governor also fixed February 26th
as the date for the execution Of j. H.
Rose, of Wilson, who waylaid and shot,
a neighbor. There has not been
hanging in Wilson county since the war.
