Three out of the nine prisoners
were badly and one slightly wounded
I was astonished that these men
should not have been put in ambu-
lanoes aud sent to the hospital.
We were, however, all marching g
forward and reaching bend in the
road, came full and direct under a
Ere from our own lines. Two of our
wounded were killed outright by this
FIRE and two others wounded. It was
terrific in the extreme aud might have
been avoided.
We were conducted to an old stable

arriving all containing wounded men,
as was the case with the squad I came
with. I was aocosted by q fellow

WAR STORIES.
Private Soldier Tells Of Crucltics OF Y Yankee
Soldiers.
George 9. Tanner, in Augusta Chronicle.

10 the Editor OF the ChrOniclc-Sir:
The Daughters of the Confederacy at
Wayncsboro came in possession Of
some Of the facts of my two escapes
from Yankee durancc; and after read
ing the paper the narrative was pub
lished in the True Citizen.
I have never though. it worth Civ
ny to the public, but, since it has
appeared, beg space in your valu-
able columns to give the true details
as they are retained in my memory
after lapse Of forty years.
l was born 18th Of March, 1847,
hence at the breaking out of the war
! was not yet IL years old. Yet | was
fred by all that intense ardor that
pervadcd the South, and by tight
squeeze l managed to wriggle into
Capt. Sam Crump's company, the
Walker Light infantry, which was
soon after incorporated into the First
Regiment Georgia volunteers.
It is the opinion of many that this
was the finest regiment in the Con
federate service. If true it was the
anest in any service. It was compos-
cd mostly Of old perfectly drilled and
we'll equipped companies scattered
shyoughout the State when the war
broke out. Many of the best fami-
Hes in che State belonged to it, and
6rmeY body of men could not bo
found.
cannot forget the vigorous protest
ny mention of enlistment made in the
company, and at my home, and how [
lad te be attired in uniform much
700 l1g for me because "they had none
an- .bies," and how on march [
was chucked away in wagon or as
bride Of cannon, my gun and equip :
aent weighing nearly as much as |
did. My reply to all this biting criti-
sism was that II could shoot strong
SO any Of them proved true, and /
was neevly always where the shooting
vas going on, and believe did my
share Of it.
The experience of the First Georgia
in the one year from which we enlist
ed was terrific in the extreme, and was
just about as much as the human
anatomy could endure. After that
one year when we were assembled at
Petersburg to be mustered out of Ser
vice, we had lost our Jrmer selves,
aud were all changed as human beings
never were before. But we were full
Of the fiery ardor for the cause We had
espoused, and suffering was not coz
sidered when compared with it..
Every man Of US deemed it our duty
to re-enlist and we did so almost to q
man.
Having three brothers in Cobb's
Eegion and that being cavalry, and
having enough of footing it, lost
no time in Joining that regiment.
General Wade Hampton on all oc-
easions never for one moment hesita-
bed to say that "Cobb's Legion was
she best regiment cf cavalry that
ever entered any service I have
heard him say that any number Of
times. To have belonged to two such
regiments is matter of great pride to
mo.

ROOSEVELT IN CONFERENCE.
President is stiH Crying Out for
Antitrust Measure.

Washington, Feb. 9.-President
Roosevelt had a conference tonight
with number of the leading members
of the House of Representatives for
the purpose of discussing trust legisla-
ton.
The members present included Chair
men Cannon of the Appropriations
Committee, Messrs. Payne, Dalzen and
Grosvenor of the Ways and Means
Committee, and Messrs. Jenkins and
Powers, of Massachusetts, and Over
street of the Judiciary Committee.
Consideration was given to the De-
partment of Commerce bill as agreed
on by the congressional corferees, and on
the Elkins railroad bill, as to the
Littlef1eld antitrust measu pass
ed by the House. President 1osevelt
is anxious to have legislation with ref
erence to trusts at this session round
ed out into an efficient and harmonious
whole, and for this reason went over

ularly to the effort of some of the op-
ponents of the statehood bill to find an
excuse for their opposition In the fact
that the Mormon Church has some
strength in New Mexico and Arizona.
Some OF the Republicans who are
lighting the bill have endeavored to
make il appear that the Mormons are

rltories from statehood. 1t is notice
able that in all their talk they have had

TACT and at the time showed the fimsi-
ness of the pretenes of those men who
would make a bugaboo of Mormonism,
producing the census figures to show

proportion of the population of those
territories.
Senator Clay declared an injustice
was being done the people of Arizona
and New Mexico on account of the
statements made regarding their Nor
mon population. At the present time
he said, there We're but 1900 Mormons
in New Mexico, and $500 in Arizona.

the people of New Mexico with being
repudiationists, polygamists and ig-
norant. If given the opportunity, they
would present the identical constitution
prepared by them in 1889, declaring
against bigamy and polygamy.
Senator Kean spoke on the bill for
short time, when he yielded to
