CORRECTING A WAR INCIDENT,
Cor. Nashville American.

Cor. Nashville American.
DR.. D. G. Kelly asks for the pubi-
cation of the enclosed communica-
ton, written by himself, and ask
for the publication of the two letters
herewith enclosed from 7. D. Flip
pen, who was clerk and teller of the
Bank of Tennessee during the war
of 1861 5, and who was constantly
with the bank during all of its trav-
els through the South. Mr.. Flip
pen settles the historical inquiry in
favor OF the bank, who preserved
the School Fund after many tri-
ais. The assets of the bank we're
squandered after its return to

tract from the credit due to G. c.

Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1903-02-07

According to a cable dispatch Of
Wednesday from Caracas, Venezuela,
the government troops, under Alcan-
tara, a graduate from West Point,
have defeated a force of rebels num-
bering nine hundred, under the Revo-
lutionary general, Ducharme, on the
Camatagua river, about fifty miles
south Of Casacas. The rebels were
routed, their ammunition and 230 pris-
oners were captured. On the receipt
of the news Of the victory, prices on
the Stock Exchange here jumped four
points. Since the rout Of Gen. Matos
and his army Of ten thousand men by
President Castro, near La Victoria,
October 18, the remnant Of the rebel
forces has been dispersed in all direc-
tions. These scattered bodies Of rebels,
believing that arms and ammunition
had been landed, lately reunited, and
to the number of about 1000, under
Gems. Rolando and Ducharme, assem-
bled at Altagracia at the entrance to
the Gulf Of Maracaibo and at Orituco,
q village 60 miles from Caracas. Gen.
Ducharme, with nine hundred men,
advanced up the Camatagua river.
President Castro sent force Of one
thousand troops against him, under
Gen. Alcantara, who took the rebels by
surprise and routed them after a seven
hours fight. Alcantara captured thir-
ty officers and two hundred soldiers,
forty thousand rounds and all the reb-
els reserve ammunition, and fifty an
imals The balance Of Ducharme's 8
army fled in the direction Of Orituco.

in the sum of two hundred dollars, to
be recovered for each and every offence,
in any court Of competent jurisdiction,
one-half of which shall go to the con-
signee aggrieved and the remaining
balance deposited in the county treas
ury as other public funds.
Sec. 2. That where any loss or short
age occurs in any shipment of goods,
wares, merchandise or other commodi-
ties, as may be shown by the original
bill OF lading, the railroad or railroad
company delivering the partial ship
ment shall, upon the demand OF the
consignee or consignees at the ume
of delivering the partial shipment, pay
the consignee the full cost value Of all
such goods, wares, merchandise or
other commodities as may have been
lost in transit. For the failure or re-
fusal of any railroad or railroad COM
pany or their agents to comply with
the provisions Of this section, said rail-
road company shall be fined in the sum
Of two hundred dollars for each and
every offence, to be recovered In any
court Of competent Jurisdiction, one
half of which shall be paid to the con-
signee aggrieved, and the balance
the offence may have been committed,
and used as other public funds.
Sec. 8. All damage to goods, wares,
or commodities Of every
kind while in transit, caused by water,
careless handling or otherwise, shall
likewise be adjusted at the time of de-
livery by the railroad or railroad COM
pany delivering the same, under fne
and penalty Of the preceding section.
All acts and parts Of acts inconsist-
ent with this act be, and the same are
hereby, repealed.
A bill Of this same nature passed
the house at the last session; but 1t
was killed in the senate. The oppos-
ing view is that it Is unconstitutional
in some of it's provisions, and unjust,
in the fact that 1t requires
the delivery road to be responsible for
mistakes or damages that may be
really chargable to the receiving ROAD.
It is pretty generally admitted, how
ever, that the situation requires ad-
juStment.

HANNA HUNTING VOTEs.-If Uncle
Marcus Hanna is not bidding for the
Negro votes in the next Republican
national convention, says a Washing
ton special of Wednesday, he had bet
ter take in his sign. All washington
is giving voice to some such sentiment
as that tonight. The occasion for this
comment is a bill which the Ohio SEN
ator introduced today, providing for
pensions for former slaves. This bill
provides that ex-slaves over 10 years
Of age shall receive bounty Of $5OO
and a pension Of SIS month; those
between so and 70 a bounty OF $3oo,
and a pension Of $12 a month; those
between so and so a bounty OF $lO0 and
a pension of So a month; those under
so years shall be entitled to receive "a
per month until they are 50 years old,
when they shall receive 81 per month.
Several weeks ago deputatfon OF col
ored men went to the White House TO
secure from President Roosevelt MS
endorsement Of this slave pension
proposition. The president turned
them down so hard that the leader of
the deputation went from the White
House swearing vengeance upon Pres
ident Roosevelt and declaring that
they could control 100000 votes In the
states of the north, which would be
thrown against Roosevelt If he were
the Republican candidate in 1904. L.
ter this definance was repudiated by
others active in the movement. The
fact that Senator Hanna has come out
