Washington, March. -21.-Following
the declarations of Senators Clay and
Bacon of Georgia, there comes to-day
the declaration Of Senator Carmack Of
Tennessee that his state and southern
sentiment generally is opposed to the
nomination of William r. Hearst. Car
mack says: .
think that Judge Parker of all the
men that have been mentioned is the one
man who fully meets the requirements
of the occasion, and that he would make
strong candidate. I am for him, and ]
believe I reflect the dominant democratic
sentiment Of Tennessee. ..,. .
The Hearst boomers have taken advan-
| tage Of the divided sentiment in New
York over Cleveland and Parker and have
made some headWay-enough to be a lit
| tie dfsquieting to- one who regards Hearst
] as absolutely inconceivable as presiden-
l. tial possibility. 49,. ... .'..
The nomination of Hearst would COM
pass the ruin Of the party. It would be
a disgrace, and have already said tc
the people of Tennessee that if Hearst
is nominated we may as well pen dis
patch and send 1t back from the field Of
battle, "All is lost, including our honor. p
"Do you believe Parker could be
elected?" .-. II,

Safe crackers entered the office Of
the E. H. Day Lumber company
Saturday night, dynamited the safe

So heavy was the charge that all the
windows in the office were broken, the

the safe door was blown thru the wall.
A large clock was blown into frag-
ments and only a few pieces could be
found.
Detectives were put on the case yes

the explosion. Only the outer door of
the safe was blown: open, and no eff

Washington, March 21.-Represent-
atives Stevens and Lind are much
gratified that steps have been taken to
acquire the additional land needed for
Fort Smelling, and they both hope that
the commission to be appointed by
the court will complete it's work in a
short time. ~. .......
From the attitude Of the owners Of
the property with reference to the
value of the land, there is little pros
pect that the government will get pos
session of it until the case has gone
thru several courts. The owners have
the right Of appeal to the circuit court
of appeals, and if they do this, it will
| be at least a year before all the pro-
ceedings are finished.
| No effort will be made by the war
department to enlarge the facilities
at Fort Smelling by the construction
| Of new buildings until the land ques-
| ton is settled
The completion of the buildings now
authorized will call for the expenditure
Of about $250,000 during the next ifs
cal year. When the military appropri-
alton bill becomes a law Representa-
| tives Stevens and Lind will take UP
| the question of providing the money
necessary to complete the riding hall
and construct new roads.

Washington, March 21.-Secretary
Hitchcock has transmitted to the
president a report on a numerously
signed petition recently presented by
Representative Bede, praying for a
change of departmental practice in
the adjustment Of the state swamp
land grant. r.
The secretary will not make public
his report, but it is learned that he
declines to reverse his decision of last
year in which he directed that field
notes of surveys shall be accepted as
proof of a swanpy character of land.
The secretary calls attention, how
ever, to his action Of last week in di-
recting an examination Of lands re-
Gently surveyed, with a view to ascer-
tanning whether lands described as
swamp in field notes are really
swamp in character within the mean
ing Of the law. He reiterates his dec
laration that nothing in his decision
can be held to hold survey which
is shown to be erroneous or
fraudulent.
