bankruptcy: M ]. Colbert and w. Gwynn
Gardiner
Owing to the length of time occupied to-
day in reading the lists of creditors entitled
to vote it was argued that the ball0ting
would be very slow and tedious process.
When Referee Bradley called the meet
ing to order at / 90 o'clock this afternoon
exceptions were taken by an attorney to
the referees decision placing the creditors
on list No. l on the unsecured list.
Mr. Bradley then announced that the
election of trustee would be proceeded with.
Mr.. Leighton Names Candidate.
Attorney B. F. Leighton took the floor
and named Mr. George Truesdell for the
trusteeship. He was ruled out of order by
the referee.
II want to name Mr.. Truesdell and 10
state that he will serve" added Mr. Leigh
ton. causing a ripple of laughter at his
oleverness In getting the name of his favor
lite first before the meeting.
An attorney stated that he proposed to
eiter a protest against the election on ac-
count of the decision of the referee as TO
the creditors on list No. 1. and because OF
an implied threat that had been made at
the meeting by an attorney.
Attorney Mattin2ly denied that he had
made any threats.
Attorney Chas. w. Darr moved that me
meeting proceed to elect three trustees.
Referee Bradley said he would call the
list OF creditors entitled to vote. and those
who respond to the roll call would be rec
ognized both by number and amount of the
claim represented.

K Daniels at Montgomery on Wednesday,

by Policeman Elliott. Jackson was guarded
by crowd of his friends, who were heavily
armed. When it became known that Jack
son was in the city another posse was or

the posse charged on jackson and his
friends the latter drew guns and beat
back the posse, who retreated The posse
on the trail of Jackson last night was called
in today. The bloodhounds lost the trail
because the fugitive changed his clothing
at one of the mines, and in this way made
his escape from his pursuers.

TO BE GIVEN GOLD MEDAL.
Bravery Displayed by Chief Carpenter
Thompson in 1887.


Chief Carpenter Charles Thompson OF the
navy is to be awarded gold medal for
bravery displayed near San Fernando. Trim
dad. in February. 1887 when he saved the
life Of Commander Henry B. Wilson, now
on duty in the bureau Of navigation. Com
mander Wilson has furnished statement
of the occurrence. in which he says that he
and fifteen others were capsized from a
small boat in sQuall at the time.
I'VE were about three miles from shore
and five miles from the Ship says Com
mander Wilson. land the sea was rough
and 1t was raining and blowing. The boat
made half turn and when l came to the
surface l found myself under the sail. At
the time had on my rain clothes and was
about exhausted and saw no chance of saw
ing myself when l was pulled from under
the sail and hauled onto the side of thu.
boat by one of the party who proved to be
Charles Thompson. at that time an appren-
tice. After the boat had capsized he had
fortunately gotten hold of her gunwaic.
Seeing the position / was in, not knowing
at the time who 1t was. he, without any
thought of himself. left his secure place at
the risk of never getting back. and saved
my life. There is no doubt that l would
have drowned had 1t not been for Thomp-
son, who risked his life to save mine.
During this time three men drowned.
Nine of us succeeded In getting a place
along the gunwale of the boat which was
now lying on her side with the mast awash.
The sea was very rough. the weather was
squally and 1t was raining hard. At times
the boat would show a tendency to right,
which, IL she did feared would cause her
to go down. leaving the nine of us without
any support. Several times Thompson. at
my order, went out on the mast and by
means of his weight balanced the boat and
kept her from being righted and swamped.
Immediately upon my return to the ship
I made a report of Thompson's gallant work
and also of the case of another apprentice
named Allen. 1 strongly approve of Ad-
miral Davis recommends tons that Chief
Carpenter Thompson be given gold life
saving medal for saving life at imminent
risk to himself"

TO PROTECT PROPERTY.
Eight Companies Will Be Sent to the
st. Louis Fair

president Francs of the Louisiana pur-
chase exposition made application to the
war Department for the sending of troops
to the exposition grounds for the protection
OF government property and the property
OF foreign nations contained in the exhib-
It's, and also of the exhibits of the Philip
pine government. This request was based
on the ground that it had been the expert
ence in all great expositions, as they have
drawn toward close that the destructive
tendency on the part of visitors and others
has resulted in great loss to government,
foreign and domestic exhibits
Accordingly. the Secretary of War has
directed that headquarters and eight COM
panles OF the 10th Infantry be sent from
Fort Mcpherson, Atlanta, Ca, to St Louis
there to remain for forty-five days to assist
