LOUISVILLE, KY, July 2s-The color

C. Whitaker Post, G. A. R.. better known
as the Lily White Post Of Louisville, which
has refused to obey the order Of W. T
Bausmith, State Commander, that they
go to the national encampment in Boston
under the command Of the Junior Vice.
Commander, H. c. Pearce, a negro hostler
The post has decided to go to Boston on
a special train OF It's own
At the last State ealampment at Frank
fort, this year, Whitaker Post declared
that negroes should not be admitted into
the G. A. R., and none are members OF
this post. The train Of the Lilly Whites
will pass through New York. while the
mixed train will proceed to Boston by way
of Buffalo
or the six G. A. r. posts in Louisville
three are composed exclusively OF blacks
and two others have negro members The
white members OF these posts are drop
ping out and joining Whitaker Post. Sec
retary John Blaes OF Whitaker Post said
tonight:
I'VE do not propose to be commanded by
a negro or to tolerate negroes in any ca
pacity. The idea that true American
citizens should be expected to travel or
even visit under the command Of a negro,
and. what is worse, a common hostler
who knows nothing better than the proper
way to handle curry comb, Is prepos-
ferrous"
Whitaker Post made strong fight

TANK IN THE WATER TANK.
And Mowbray Is the Luckiest Who Ever
| Stole 4 Ride ON q Slow Freight.

Fireman Bill Eyerhardt, Of a slow freight
train that pulled into the New York Central
Railroad yards at Fifty-ninth street late
yesterday afternoon, climbed over the tender
and went back to the tank to take q squipt
at the water supply
He put his eye to the water hole and yelled
to the engineer:
Hi, Bill! There's dead hobo in here!" -
Everhardt and his boss saw a ragged,
limp figure lying sprawled out in foot Of
water in the bottom of the tank. They
managed to pull the tramp out through
the water hole and then telephoned for the
police.
DR.. Peabody of Roosevelt Hospital came
on the dead" call, took look at the dripping
man and said
That's the drunkest chap to be on the
water wagon l ever saw"
They reused the tank passenger with
means effective in such cases, and he
blinked, came to and told his story. He
said he was Thomas Mowbray, of no place
in particular. He had climbed on to the
freight train somewhere up the line, he
said, and had squeezed into the tank through
the water hole. Then he got thirsty and
drank quart of whiskey. The tale ended
there.
The trainmen say that Mowbray is the
luckiest tramp that ever stole ride. The
train had scooped up ton of water from
the track trough while Mowbray was snooz-
ing. 1t had poured over him like waterfall
but it never feazed him. He kept his head
above the surface somehow with the luck Of
drunken men.
Mowbray was sent to Roosevelt Hospital

last night, when at a short distance from

shot up around the cars. Smoke rolled

fire. The motorman backed the train
to the Van Stolen avenue station, where
the passengers Of q train just in from the
Brooklyn Bridge caught the contagion Of

The people on both trains got onto the
platform as rapidly as possible, the train
hands having hard time to prevent many
from being knocked down and trampled
in their mad rush.
TIE flames were shooting up for blocks
along the iron structure of the elevated
and the crossties had caught fire and were
burning furiously. An alarm Of fire was
sent in and Capt. Pat Kelly Of Truck l57
came.

no impression. Finally Kelly climbed to
the elevated tracks and by means Of Crap

was extinguished easily.
