be seen, and enjoy the meeting as hum dreds have never done. A feW more years, comrades, and none of us will be left to tell the tale of our doings In the Confederate war. While we live, let us meet a few more times. We do not pro- pose to act in opposition, or to conflict with the United Confederate Veterans, nor with the State organization but want free, unembarrassed reunion with no carriages in the procession. and the mem bers of each old organization to form a company or squad in the line of march, with our old General Law to head the column. l can get him to come with Lieutenant Christian and Captain Cous- sins of his staff and his Aid de Camp Hon. Mims Walker.
 Let the public hear from the 4th. 18th. 44th, filth and 4Sth. I can speak for the 18th and say that believe that such a reunion would be acceptable and largely attended by the survivors of that regi- ment. The public, however. would be pleased to hear from any who served in the brigade or any member of any of the regiments.
 Let no one suppose for a moment that I intend to antagonize any of the existing organizations, for they all have my sym pathy. I am an old Confederate soldier have all the pleasure possible during the remaining years of their lives-they earn ed 1t. My proposition is for an additional kind of reunion. Some men are pleased with one method, some with another and an effort to please all of the brave men especially the privates who filled the ranks and did the real work in the war opportunity to meet and mingle with their comrades of the same command than heretofore. Who objects?

HEARD TWO
 WITNESSES McSSTS Carr and Ford Be- fore Committed. FIRST SESSION SECRET Investigating Reports About
 Pit Purchase.
 -e-- cemmitteemsn Declare Better Re- suits VIII Occur From Star Cham Der session--All Evidence to
 be Made Public.

[ Mayor-elect Thomas H. Carr and City s TsnQineer David Ford were yesterday ex- nrnined as witnesses by the special com anfttee of the City Council. appointed to Investigate charges of corruption in the Council interference to the purchase of a gravel pit.
 The first regular meeting of this com. anittee was held in secret. Nathan Lob- man. chairman. presided. A stenogra- pier was present and City Attorney Bibb Graves examined the witnesses.
 The committee was in session until af- ter o'clock last night It adjourned to meet at 4 o'clock Monday afternoon, when more witnesses, who have been regularly subpoenaed. will be examined1
 After the meeting of the committee yes- tssrday afternoon, Chairman Lobman said that in the opinion. of the committee more effective results could be gained by holding the meetings in secret, but assur- ed a representative of The Advertiser that after the proper time all the evidence would be made public.
 Alderman C. P. Mcintyre of the com n -ttee said yesterday that the impression skems to have gone out that the commit tee was raised for the purpose of white washing the Council. s
 ~we don't expect to whitewash any. body" said Alderman Mcintyre. 'sWe are go .ng to make every effort to get to the bottom of any fraudulent action, fl fraudulent action there was. and the com mittee will be glad to hear from any one. who has Knowledge of any corrupt deal having gone through in reference to the purchase of the pit. :"
 Speaking of the closed sessions of the committee. Alderman Mcintyre said that 1t was the unanimous opinion of the com- mittee that better results would be ob- tained by hearing the. evidence behind closed doors.
 Campbell Jones, Superintendent of Streets, and Alderman-elect J. J. Sulh- van have been summoned before the com nnIttee, and they win probably testify Monday afternoon.
 Mr. Carr was in the witness chair more than an hour yesterday afternoon. The committeeman declined to give any inti- nation as to the nature of the testimony.

WINS AGAIN
Marshal Richards Stru:k
 All Over With Luck

Special Dispatch to Daily Alaskan.
 Portland, Ore, Sept. 23.-Marshal Frank II. Richards, of Nome, Alaska
 who has just been exonorated by a spe- cial examiner of the department of jus tiee of the charge Of corruption in Of. fee, was today given a decision by the circuit court Of appeals, in his appeal from the conviction for contempt by Judge Wickersham, secured at Nome a year ago. The judgment of Judge Wickersham has been reversed and the case romanded back for new trial.
 Marshal Richards was charged with having bribed the jury before which Joe Wright, postmaster at Nome, was tried for embezzlement. The jury re- turned a verdict of not guilty, and Judge Wickersham cited Richards and Ed Jourdan, a prominent Nome saloon man, to appear and show cause why they should not be punished for con- tempt of court in tampering with the jury. After an exciting trial, Judge Wickersham found both men guilty and fined them $500 The reversal of this judgment by the circuit court, it is be- lieved, will result in an acquittal.
