O'Clock yesterday afternoon from the
residence of his brother, Mr.. VIII G.

finement of many months with courage
and fortitude, and the end was calm
and peaceful. The deceased was the
eldest son of the late John Sullivan, a
pioneer citizen of Americus, and is
survived by two brothers, son and
daughter, all of whom were at his bed
side when the final summons came.
Mr.. Sullivan was about As years of age,
and was member of two or three fra
ternal orders here.

As Americas Veterans Left for Rich

Carrying the Old COIOrS
of the Sixties.
THE STARS AND BARS WAyINI

Marching again beneath the folds OF
the Bonnie Blue Flag, the Stars and
Bars of the Confederacy, the veterans
of Camp Sumter, as light hearted and
happy as boys turned loose from
school, left Americas yesterday for
old Richmond Va.
1t was a gale occasion for them, as
for their friends gathered at the station
to waye them bon-voyage.
The old flag fiuttered in the May
breezes as the veterans and friends ac-
companying them boarded the special
car in which they will make the trip
to Richmond.
Attached to this train was the Pull
man sleeper Oberlin, and those desir-
ing greater comforts in travel occupied
berths in this. The cars were attached
to the Veterans Special" at Macon
and the vets will get to Richmond to-
night.

CHILDREN ASKED TO BEG PENNIE;
For Fund to Aid in Hunt for North
Pole.

Americas will not witness another
penny begging spectacle at the hands
of the little tots in school here, in aid OF
the North Pole expedition, says State
School Commissioner Merritt. This
latest scheme contemplates raising
100000 in pennies by the school
children of the country, the fund to be
used on North Pole discoveries. No
doubt the North Polar expedition is a
very worthy object, but Commissioner
Merritt fails to see why the school
children of Georgia should be so deep
ly interested in it as to make these
contributions, particularly in view oil
the fact that they need more and better
school houses, more school teachers
and more school books. We have a
little polar expedition of our own here
in Georgia now, Commissioner Merritt
thinks.

PLAN TO REORGANIzE
THE COAST ARTILLERY
1t Is Presented by Brig. Gen.
Arthur Murray.
NEW DIVISIONS NEEDED.

Washington, Sept. 14.-As a neces-
sary step toward improving the eff
cheney of the coast artillery service.
Brig. Gen. Arthur Murray, chief of ar
tillery, has prepared and submitted to
Secretary Taft comprehensive scheme
for the reorganization of that arm of
the service along modern lines. Par
ticularly is it the case that with the
rapid increase in the coast artillery
forces, and the completion and man
ming Of new batteries and posts, has
come a pressing need of a division of
the administrative work. Gen. Muir
ray has recommended that in addition
there should be created several divis-
ion or department headquarters geo.
graphically distributed along the sea-
coast of this country, and including
the insular possessions, where the
great part of the military business re-
lating to the coast artillery can be car
ried on without reference to Washing
ton, except in cases of great import
ance.

CONSTITUTES FRAUD
BY THE APPLICAh 7
Decision Is Made by the War
Department.
MUST TELL WHOLE TRUTH.

Washington, Sept. lit has been
decided by the war department that
the concealment by an applicant for en-
listment. of the fact of a previous ap-
plication to enlist, which fact, if dis
closed. would have caused his rejection
will. in the event of his enlistment
constitute an act of fraudulent enlist
ment. A deserter who is in the Phil.
ippine islands in immediate contact
with the military authorities still pass
ing under his MILITARY name. is not
considered to be absent from the Unit
ed States in the sense contemplated
by the statute of limitation, and that
statute does not, it has been decided,
therefore operate to prevent the grant
ing of a deserter's release in such a
case.

OUTPUT OF STEAMERS
ON THE GREAT LAKES
American ShipbuiIding Com.
pany Erects Most.
THEY COMPARE FAVORABLY

Buffalo, Sept. 14-Of the forty-seven
steel steamers built on the Great Lakes
during the past fiscal year, the Ameri-
can Shipbuilding Co. constructed by far
the most The total output of steel
merchant vessels in the country last
year was greater than ever before. One
hundred and twenty-five such ships
were turned out with tonnage of &c.,
665.
The forty-seven ships in the lake re-
gion had tonnage of 23S.113 which
was two-thirds of the total AS far as
numbers are concerned work was more
evenly distributed among the ship
yards of the seaboard and of the Great
Lakes than for some years. The out
standing feature of the lake shipping
industry is the enlarged size of the
boats Fifteen of the ships built last
year were over 1000 tons each, an in
crease of 1000 tons over the largest
ship of 1905. A few years before the
5000 ton ship was considered the limit
for this service. The new boats COM
pare favorably with the trans-oceanic
freight boats in size, though of much
different shape. the lake boats being
limited to a depth of about twenty feet.
This is due to the shallowness of the
ports of the lakes, especially Lake Erie
and because of the shifting sandbars.

CONFLICTS CENTER

State and Federal Courts to
Fight Out Railroad Rate
Regulation.
STATE OFFICIALS ARE OUT.
ACTION is BROUGHT ON BY THE
MINNESOTA SHIPPER G. REcov
ERERS' ASSocIATIoN- WILL
BRING SUITS.

st. Paul, Sept. 14-Minnesota is to
be the center of conflict between the
state and federal courts over the ques
ton of railroad rate regulation, like
the recent episode in North Carolina
In this instance the state officials will
not be parties to the trouble, be-
cause they are resting under injunc
ton.
The movement comes from the Min
nesota Shippers & Receivers Associa
ton. Members of that body have all
received letters from headquarters,
asking if they will do their part in
the coming campaign. Several have
already replied and declared them
selves willing to act.
The program is to lay complaint be-
for the country attorneys all over the
state against the highest railway of
ficials for violation of the commodity
rate law Under that law each Off
cial found guilty of refusing to adopt
the rates provided is liable to impris-
onment in the county Jail for not more
than 90 days, without the option of a
fine Indictment is not necessary.
The railroads are bound by Judge
Lochren's restraining order not TO
obey the commodity rate law. They
will bring this up as defense, and
there the question of conflicting juris-
diction will arise. The program calls
for bringing several suits, both in
Hennepin and Ramsey counties, and
naming the president of the head traf-
fic officials of each road as parties de-
fandant The Sylit will affect rates on
grain. lumber, coal and live stock.
