Mcclellan For President.

WASHINGTON, Dec. S.-It is said that Charles F. Murphy is aiming high for his friend George B. Mcclellan. Statements made by members of the house from New York and by other friends of the mayor elect indicate that the leader of Tammany desires to pre- sent the name of Mir. Mcclellan to the Democrats of the country as a candi- date for president, and he would like to do it at the next national conven- tion instead of waiting for the con- vention to be held in 1908 This is said to be the reason why Mr. Murphy is fighting shy of making any agree ment with David E. Hill to have the New York delegation to the next Dem ocratic nationa! convention vote solid ly for Judge Alton R. Parker.

under General Hurlburt at Aemphi: to guard the river and to garrison the railroads in west Tennessee. At that time there was a network of block houses in west Tennessee to o-defend the railways against cavalry forays, for Forrest had again and again galloped almost at will through that region from the Mississippi line to the Kentucky border gathering in vast spells of war. Taking advantage of the doingsI at Chattanooga and Sherman's absence with part of his command. Forrest, with freshly organized band of mounted men, dashed across the bor der into west Tennessee early in De . cember.
 The first halt of the raideR was at Bolivar, where the people gave the men in gray an ovation. Sending scouts in the direction of the Federal lines at Memphis, Forrest pushed on to Jack son, which he made a rendezvous for conscripts whom Confederate military agents were gathering in the region. The bands of recruits were too small to fight their way through the Federal cordon of guards on the border, but with Forrest in the field at the head of several brigades there was little risk in rallying to the standards of the south. At the end of a week the raiding force had been augmented by HOO recruits. Meanwhile the Yankees did not in-

THERE WASARECESS
President Roosevelt and Ad- visers Reach This Decision.
TIME ELAPSED BETWEEN SESSIONS
Appointment of General Wood and Other Army officers Are Consider ed to Bo Recess Appointments
 and Denominations Sent I'm.

WASHINGTON, Dee. g. - President
 Roosevelt has sent to the senate the
 nomination of General Leonard Wood
 to be major general of the army and
 the nomination of 167 other army off, cers whose promotion is dependent on that of General Wood. . :
 Accompanying these nominations were those of about twenty civilian appointees, including that of pr. w. H. Crum to be collector of the port of Charleston, s. G. and some others whom the president nominated in the last recess. z@'<t#t# These appointments are considered by the president and his advisers to be
 recess appointments. The question of 1 their status has been discussed thor oughly by the president with the best I lawyers connected with the adninistra- 1 tion in congress. The conclusion has 1 been reached that between the time of 1 the falling of President Pro Tempore l Frye's gayel signifying the conclusion of the extraordinary session and the l calling to order of the senate in the reg 1 ular session of co hgress an aOpreciable 1 lapse of time occurred.
 1 While the nominations are dated to ] take effect from the time the commits l sions were first issued on the recess ap- 1 pointments, it is the general opinion of
 members of the senate that the norni-
 nees will retain their old rank until
 the nominations are confirmed despite
 the fact that all of the officers affect
 ed have been serving for nearly three
 months under the advanced rank and pay to which they will be entitled when confirmed On this theory Gen
 eral Wood will cease to serve as jor 1 general and will resume his rank of
 brigadier general and hold it until he
 is confirmed in the higher rank. When
 he is confirmed, however, he will receive
 a commission dated Aug. &, and his ad-
 vanced pay will take effect from that ] time l The senate committee on military af-
 fairs resumed its hearing in the Wood
 case, with Commander Lucien Young
 of the navy on the stand.
 Commander Young was subpnnaed 1 by the military affairs committee at the
 request of Major Estes G. Rathbone, ] wno had furnished to the committee a l list of questions which he desired to ! have addressed to the witness. Much 1 testimony was brought out in relation to the charge that General Wood after 1 assuming the duties of governor gen
 eral of Cuba employed, detectives not
 connected with the army to shadow cer-
 tain army officers for the purpose of re-
 porting their actions to him.
 Notice has been given by the commit
 tee to Senators Hanna and Teller, who
 made the protests against the confirma- 1 ton of General Wood to be major gen
 eral that they must have all of their
 witnesses here before Dec. 16, when it
 is expected the investigation will be 1 closed

General Hurlburt, the Federal commander at Memphis, sent out force to cut the raiders off from Mississippi, and at the same time news Of the foray brought down attachments from the north to fall upon the invad CTS in that quarter. Forrest learned from his scouts that the enemy was massing on all sides and decided to make a sudden dash for home across the Mississippi border. For weeks the country had been drenched with heavy fall rains, but on Christmas day the weather was bright with promise of fair skies for days to come. At the close of the day the whole command started southward. Nearly 3,o0o re cruits had been gathered in and a long train of animals and wagons.
