NO HOPE FOR CREW.
French Submarine still Under watea
 at Bixerta.

PARIS, July 11.-Dispatches reach. ing the ministry of marine show that the authorities at Bizerta, Tunis. con. tinue their tedious efforts to raise the submarine Farfadet, with the expecta. tion of taking out the bodies of the i'm. prisoned crew. Cables were again passed under the boat, but the res. cuers were unable to bring her to the surface.
 A large floating dock is now over the sunken boat and 1t is hoped that this will permit of raising the subma. rine The futile efforts to rescue the imprisoned men shook up the boat, loosening the cap and permitting water to enter the interior orifice for the admission of air and also served to admit water in other ways One of the last messages from the interior of the Farfadet was: Hurry. Water gaining"
 Since then complete silence has pre- vailed within. the divers raps bring. ing no response. Therefore it is be lieyed that those who escaped being sniothered were drowned.
 The divers employed in passing hawsers around the Farfsdet find if almost impossible to continue their work The submarine is now i'm beided in mud for two-thirds of her length and is gradually being engulfed The divers are working waist deep is mud.

PRESIDENT IN IT NOW
Attorney General Is Urged to Erins
 Criminal Charees.

OYSTER BAY. N T., July Il. -
 President Roosevelt has taken cogniz
 Rnce of the cotton leak scandal which
 has developed in the bureau of sta
 tistics through the action of Assistant
 Government Statistician Edwin S
 Holmes, IT,. in giving out advance in
 formation in regard to the probabili
 ties of the cotton crop. He has written
 to Attorney General Moody expressing
 very strong views on the subject and
 urging that Mir Holmes be criminally
 prosecuted if that he possible. The
 revelation of the leaks existence has caused the president the deepest in dignation, impusning as it does the honesty and value of an important in stitution of government
 It is stated that President Roosevelt is very much aroused over the matter. It is understood that the law officers of the government are now making an examination of the case with view to the presentation to the grand jury of evidence against Holmes. Before such step can be taken, however, it is believed that 1t will be necessary to reopen the investigation.
 Richard Cheatham. secretary of the Southern Cotton Growers association, has gone to Atlanta. where he will con. fer with Harvie Jordan. president of the association. It will probably be decided at the conference that the whole matter shall be taken up with President Roosevelt with view to securing the dismissal of Chief Sta tistician John Hyde and having the investigation reopened, the representa- lives of the association being convinc- cd that Holmes could not have oper- ated successfully without the help of others in the department
 Secretary Of Agriculture James Will son will not comply with the demand of Theodore Price of New York. the cotton broker mentioned in the Wilson report. that Mir Wilson retract his statements connecting Prices name with the cotton scandal Intimation was given that the government would be pleased to have Price institute pro ceedings. as it believed that such a course would bring out facts not now known to the public.
 Secretary Wilson has his fighting clothes on and intends to stand pat He says that Holmes was dismissed not on the testimony given by New York brokers. but on his own admis- sions and upon the presentation of let ters written by him establishing his guilt beyond doubt.
 "I have nothing to take back said Secretary Wilson.
 Speaking of the investigation, Sec retary Cheatham said. Tt has now been shown completely and absolutely that there was a leak in the depart ment. and now nothing can be added to that established fact except to show that others besides Holmes had some thing to do with that leakage"
 When asked if his report to the Southern Cotton association would charge others with being connected with the affair. MT Cheatham said be was not at liberty tO state.

ONCE MORE RETREAT.
Cars Troops In Shakhalin Fly Before
 Advancing Japs.

1 LONDON, July 11.-Special advice i from Tokyo say that the announce
 inent of the landing of a Japanese fore
 Ut Sakhalin island and the occupation
 of Korsakovsk. followed by the north ern flight of the garrison, has been re ceived with great satisfaction by tht Japanese. The landing of the army a Sakhalin marks the first entry of tht Japanese upon Russian territory prop CT. The Japanese have expressed themselves pleased to be again in pos session of the island, declaring that they have long felt that the bargain 1 under which they relinquished the place forty years ago was unsatisfac, tory The Japanese express the belief that they will speedily control the en- tire island.
 A Kustenji (Roumania) dispatch says that the battleship Kniaz Potem- kline lies at the bottom of the harbor there. Before leaving the Kniaz Po- temkine the mutineers opened the sea cocks and flooded her hold. She is now lying in deep water, but it is expected can be refloated
 The recent outbreak here, the first naval mutiny, led to twenty three men being condemned to death. The at- tempt to carry out the sentences of death provoked still more serious signs of mutiny, whereupon the port com mapder ordered the executions to be stopped and applied to St. Petersburg for instructions. The government re piled that all the mutineers must be shot, and shooting party was formed, but when the order to fire was given the. firing. squad turned and fired on the officers instead of on the con demned and dozen officers fell dead.
 A Tokyo dispatch says that Korsa- kovsk, the chief port of Sakhalin isl and, was occupied by Japanese force on Saturday. The Russians burned the public buildings and re tired to the northward.
 A report from the Japanese army headquarters on Sakhalin island says:
 "Our army, without much resistance, has occupied Korsakovsk, but the ene- my burned the town and retired to positions eight miles north, where they resumed resistance.
 "we dislodged them and advanced in pursuit to point twenty-two miles north of Korsakovsk.
 "We captured two twelve-centimete guns, two twelve-pounders and also an amount of ammunition. We suffered no loss"
 It is reported in government circles that the Japanese will waive the ques- tion of indemnity and will merely de- mand payment of all the expenses of the war by Russia taking over all the loans raised by Japan for war pur. poses.
 It is said that Portsmouth, \. H., has been selected as the meeting place of the peace plenipotentiaries of Japan and Russia The meeting will still be known as the Washington con- ference. for Washington is the nomi. nal place of meeting. but. as announc- ed at the beginning. the peace envoys will hold most of their deliberations in the north in order to escape the sum- mer heat of the capital city.
 It is expected that the Japanese plen- ipotentiaries will reach Seattle on the steamship Minnesota about July g. and they will % directly to New York, arriving there about July 2s.

We are having some very nice wealth

the days warm. The meeting has clos

meeting. Frank Tate and sister and
the Mayberry girls attended the meet

Aunt Flora, you ought to have been
with us. 1t was funny about Red Rats

and couldn't keep either of them at
home and so had to buy another one.
s. T. Tate has bought big pair of
mules and when Frank gets behind
them he feels so big he can't spit over
his collar He has to get some one to
spit for him. Frank Tate wants a
sweetheart, as his girl has gone back

The Difference Between Men.

Editor News:
Some people think we ought to enact
laws like some of the monarchial gov
ernments of the Orient have TO silence
the press from expressing to the public
the mistakes and blunders and ignor-
ances of the Republican form of gov
eminent, of which some of our chief
executives are not proving themselves
guiltless. But, of course, all truly
American citizens oppose the enacting
of any law which tends to interfere in
any way with our freedom. AS Amer
leans we must defend freedom of
thought and freedom Of speech and
freedom of the press if we are loyal to
our own flag and consistent to the
principles of our fore fathers, who res
cued our country from Tyranny and OPP
preston. In America we have no roy

How the Union Stands.
Whitwell. Tenn, Oct. 10, Il

Whitwell, Tenn, Oct. 10, 1905.
Editor News In writing regarding
the situation at Whitwell now will say
that the union miners, after Is months
of lockout and strike, are as firm as
they were at the beginning of the
strike. Out Of more than $50 union
men we find there are only AZ men and
bows who have broke ranks and gone
to scabbing. All of their names can
be given if needed. Less than ten per
cent. of the union men have gone to
work, and over ninety per cent. are
standing firm to the organization. If
any one can give the names of more of
them than AZ men and boys who have
gone to scabbing here, that were mem
bers of the union, let us have them at
once.
The mines only ran four days last
week The output of coal and coke is
less than it has been for some time.
Some men are leaving here now and
but very few coming in. 1t is reported
that the mines are in bad shape. If
this is so it is due to all kinds of men
trying to dig coal 1t takesa miner
and good one to make any money at
Whitwell, for no living man has ever
yet got on to shooting this coal regu-
larry, or ever will.
The writer has been informed that
sometime ago the company here posted
notice that men at work must not shoot
after O'Clock at night, but the notice
has had no effect. The shooting has
been going on the same. Today one Of
the Company's deputy sheriffs was
drunk, shooting his pistol on the
streets, cursing and hollering to the
top of his voice. Sunday ten or fifteeI
shots were fred in different parts Of
the town. After all of this some will
say that Whitwell is quiet little
town. All of this shooting is done by
the men who are working here. The
union miners are not fighting with
guns. We are fighting with firmness
believing that we have the right to be
long to an organization of our craft
We know we have something to sci
and that it is our muscle and we pur
pose selling that by and through ou
organization, that we may have tn,
right to be a party to the contract un
der which we labor. 1t may as wei
be understood now as at any other tim
that we, the union miners of Whitwel
are in this strike TO win. We canno
tell anything about how long this strik
will last All we know is that Their
is fight on here and we are in it +

one of Bacchus lions got out of the cage
and ran into Harris & Fugate's store.
On arriving at proper place he be-
gan to roll his grizzly fur and bark

pieces and beat the legs over the coun-
ter. Esquire Havron made an attempt
to enter the house but on hearing the
bark of the lion IS IA, ran into his own
house and remained there until the Ii
on came out and began tearing up the
ground with cartridges. Men and boys
went in all directions There seemed
to be no one who would attempt to
confine him until he ragged up and
down the streets in front of all the
business houses He made one attempt
to enter the store of Hudson Bros but
something caused him to desist His
"A barked in front of the Cooperative
Store but he made no attempt to en-
ter. After which he curled his shaggy
tail and made down the street towards
the depot making his IA bark all along.
In the lower part of town he began
to be so tame that the two deputy sher.
ifs caught him and led him back
through town They took his pistol a.
way from but later returned it They
then carried him to his master ovel
near the foot of the mountain, there
to be retained and armed.
