The creek was fordable In a dozen
places, but CORVALLIS resisted the i'm
portunities OF some Of his officers, who
wished to ford it and attack at oncc.
He sent urgent messengers off to
Princeton to bring up the 1000 men
left there with Won Donop and to hur-
~ up Leslie with the ear guard, six
miles away. When they arrived they
could turn the right flank of he Amer

On the other side Of the creek, in the
house Of good Mistress Dagworthy,
anxious hearts were debating. Cen

usual diversity of opinion OF all sub

odds were fearful-10.0OO seasoned

Dear Sir:-I am now in St. Louis, en-
joying the Worlds Fair and I thought
1 would drop you few lines giving
you some important points about the
Fair We have heard In Washington.
D. c., from time to time, that colored
people were treated so badly, that it
would not pay them to attend the big
Fair. I can tell you Of my personal
experience, you are treated all right.
You can get something to eat almost
anywhere, you are treated with the
greatest respect by everyone you may
come in contact with, and it would be
too bad to miss the Fair on any such
misrepresentation az we have heard
in Washington. The street car con-
ductors are as polite as any set OF men
it has fallen to my lot to meet, and
we have gone everywhere we wanted
to, and have been regarded and treat
ed as gentlemen. Hence me cannot
say too much in favor of the great
Worlds Fair. As to the Negroes
treatment, for it is good, anyone who
may feel that he can spare the time
and money to come out here, will be
well paid for his trip, let him be

Navy Department Gives Out Statement
Regarding Alleged Trouble.

Washington, Sept. 2S.-At the navy
department, Wednesday, the statement
was made that the special guard now
stationed around the battleship Con-
necticut which is to be launched at
the navy yard, New York, Thursday,
was increased because of the discovery
made some weeks ago of a defect in the
ways which gave the department con-
siderable concern. No word has
reached the department as yet of the
discovery of a new obstruction.
1t appears that an officer found this
trouble and searching investigation
followed but it was impossible to de-
termine definitely whether the defect
was due to an accident or to treach-
cry and the commandant Of the navy
ward could find no clue to the person
responsible. The whole subject was
guarded with the greatest secrecy. 1t
always is customary to guard snip
preparatory to its launching and the
incident Of several weeks ago has put
the officials Of the New York yard
constantly in the watch. In view OF
the fact that there has been trouble in
the buildine of the Connecticut regard
ing piecework systems and other labor
troubles the anxiety of the ofnclalS
about the safety for the ship has been
increased.

armed marines patrolled the inclosure,
wherein the final preparations Tor the
launching of the battleship Connectl-
cut are under way. Naval Construct
