William Henry Whit. Dead.

William Henry White, President Of
the Selma Water Works Company, died
at o'clock yesterday morning at his
home In New York City. His death
was announced in Selma this morning
through a telegram to Superintendent
Nj. L. Worrell of the Selma Water
Works Company, who Immediately
closed the companys office and draped
the door with the usual signs of
mourning.
Captain Whites death was caused by
a complication of gastritis, pneumonia
and a severe malady of the heart. ~
week ago Mr.. Worrell was notified that
Captain White was very i'll. but the
news was not published here and an
nouncement of the death was sur
prise.
Captain White was born in Virginia
in March, 1874. but early in life went
to New York where he lived out his
life. He enlisted in the Federal army
during the latter part of the war as
captain in a New York regimen. and
served through the hard campaigns in
Northern Virginia He was wounded
severely and was breveted Major be-
fore he was "a years old, his conduct in
battle being signally courageous At
ter the war he returned to New York
and resumed his business.
In 1895 he, as principal OF NUMBER
of capitalists, organized the Selma Wa
ter Works Company. He was its pres
ident, an officer he continued to be
until his death. OF the capital stock
of $125,00o Captain White owned $780,
600, the largest block of stock owned
by any individual shareholder.
Superintendent NJ. l.. WorreH. the
oompany's representative officer in Sci
ma said today that he had no reason
to believe the public status and poll
cies of the company would be changed
by the death of its president His
heirs may of course wish to dispose
of their interests in the water works
but the company will doubtless retain
it's property and maintain its plant
here DuMont Clarke, President of the
American Exchange National Bank. of
New York, is, after Captain White s
heirs. the largest shareholder in the
company, and its Vice-President. and
he will probably assume the presidency
of the corporation.
The deceased is survived by no mem
bers of his family, his wife and three
children having died several years ago
His connection with the Selma water
Works Company brought 1t about that
he was a frequent visitor to this CITY
where he had many friends. He was
liberal in his donations to every cause
advanced to alleviate suffering and 10
promote the welfare of this Guy IN
which he took a lively interest.

Text Of lmperiaI Order.

St. Petersburg. Sept. 26.-The En-
peror has appointed General Grippen-
berg. commanding the troops at wilma,
to command the Second Manchurian
army:
Emperor Nicholas has sent the fol-
lowing autograph letter to General
Grippenberg:
1.-The intense energy with which ia
pan is conducting the war and the stub
bornness and high warlike qualities
displayed by the Japanese impel me to
considerably strengthen the forces at
the front in order to attain decisive
success in the shortest possible time.
Since by this increase the units will
reach a figure making their continu-
ance in one army impossible without
prejudice to the proper direction, ma
neuvering and mobility of the troops.
/ have found it necessary to divide the
active forces in Manchuria into two
armies, leaving one in the hands OF
General Kuropatkin. / appoint you to
command the second. Your many
years service in warlike exploits and
your experience in training troops as
sure me that you, following the general
directions of the chief.
will be successful and lead to the at
tainment of the objects of the war the
army intrusted to you.
God bless you for your great and
glorious services to me and to Russia.
Ever your affectionate,

Russia MobiIizing Troops.

ST. Petersburg. Sept. 26. 2:30 a. m.-
The division and reorganization of the
Manchurian army, regarding which
there have been rumOrs ever since the
battle of Lao Yang. was officially an
nounced to-day in an official rescript
appointing General Grippenberg. com
mander of the Third army corps, in
the province of Wilma. as commander
of the Second army corps now mobil-
lied for immediate dispatch to the
Far East, leaving General Kuropatkin
in command OF the First army.
The reorganization amounts to for
NAL notice to the world. as the EN-
peror frankly explains in his rescript,
that he intends to vastly increase the
number of troops at the theater of war
in order to force the struggle to sue
cessful issue in the shortest possible
time. 1t is intended to silence defin-
itely all talk of foreign intervention.
by the announcement that Russia
means to fight out the issue with Japan
on the field of battle.

Watching the Russian Fleet.

London. Sept. 26.-The Daily Nails
Chez Foo correspondent says that the
Japanese are now devoting their ener-
gies to an attempt to drive the Russian
fleet from Port Arthur. The Japanese
assault is directed against the forts
commanding the harbor, while Admiral
Togo, with his fleet reinforced. is wait
ing outside and has placed powerful
cruisers and torpedo boat destroyers
in position to prevent the possible use
of Tzing Tau or treaty ports by the

dent says, is determined to destroy the
Russians before it is possible for the

DEADLY ASSAULT
pREsAeEs PORT ARTHuR's DOOM

Japanese Take Three Russian Posi-
tions.-Besiegers Suffer Heavy
Losses.-important Forts Threat.
ened.
Chez Eco, Sept 26.-As a result OF
the battle before Port Arthur which be-
gan September 18th, the Japanese sue
ceeded in capturing several important
positions and to-day the Russian ten
ure of the big forts guarding the north,
northeast and northwest sides OF the
town is seriously threatened.
Chinese information places the Jap
anese losses under 5000 for the three
days fighting, and this comparatively
small casualty list is due to the exces-
sive care used by the Japanese in max
Ing their preparations for the advance
Russian sources, however, claim TO
have Information that the Japanese
losses were unusually severe, amount
Ing to fully three times the number
mentioned above.
Possibly the most important capture
during three days fighting was that OF
Fort Kuropatkin, which, while of minor
value with regard to preventing the
entrance into the town of the Japanese,
had been constructed for the purpose or
protecting the source of the garrison S
water supply The control of this wa
ter supply is now in the hands of the
japanese.
AS was announced in these dispatches
September goth, the battle began before
daybreak September 18th. AT this hour
the citizens and the garrison of Port
Arthur, after the enjoyment of weeks
of comparative security, awoke to the
thunderous reports of artillery along
the line extending from the west OF the
Itz mountains to Rihlung and kikwan
mountains.
This was but preface to the assault
which was destined to result in the
capture of three new and important
Russian positions, together with six
small annoying forts lying between
Shusiyen and Rihlung mountains.
Military experts here are of the opin-
ion that il the Japanese capture either
the Rihlung or Kikwan forts, or the ltz
and Anshu forts. that the doom of Port
Arthur is sealed, and for this reason
the Importance of the results obtained
by the Japanese in their latest assaults
upon the Russian positions is obvious.
