Residents. Americans Render
Valuable Assistance
AMERICAN WARSHIPS ALL SAIL AWAY

Kingston, Jamaica, Sat. Jan. 10.
Rear Admiral Davis mission of
mercy to stricken Kingston came TO
an abrupt aud painful end today in
consequence Of Gov. Swettenham
objection TO the presence Of Ameri-
can sailors engaged in the work Of
clearing the streets, guarding prop
erty and succoring the wounded and
sick, eliminating in letter TO the
Admiral peremptorily requesting him
to re-embark all parties that had been
landed.
Admiral Davis was greatly shock
ed and paid a formal visit to Gov.
Swetteuham's today, informing him
that the United States battleships
Missouri and Indiana aud the qua.
boats Yaukton would sail this after
noon.
To the Associated Press Admiral
Davis said that the immediate com.
pliance with Gov. Swettenham's re.
quest was the only course consistent
with the dignity Of the United Sta
ties.
The friction between the Governor
and the Admiral began with the ar
rival Of the American war vessels,
when the Governor objected to tn,
firing of a salute in his honor on tn,
ground that the citizens might mis-
take the firing for a new earthquake
He also declared there was no neces
sity for American aid-that his gov
eminent was fully able to preserv,
order, tend the wounded and succo
the homeless.
Rear Admiral Davis, however
landed parties of blue jackets, VIII,
patrolled the streets, cleared tn,
debris, RACED ruins, attended man,
of the wounded and won the highes
praize from citizens and military ofh
GERS for excellent work
Or the afternoon of the salute in
cident Rear Admiral Davis wrot,
Gov. Swettenham and offered an APP
ology for the mistake of the salute
He stated in his letter that he landed
working parties from both ships t.
give aid generally to suffering hu
mainly and that he proposed landing
parties on the morrow for the sam,
purpose unless the governor express
ly did not desire it aud trusted h,
would Justify him in this work o.
humanity. He also stated that 1
patrol of SIX men had been sent OF
shore to guard and secure the. arc
hives of the United States consulat,
and after completing their work haC
assisted the native police in captur
ing some thieves and recovering from
them safe valued at So, 900. Ad
miral Davis said he would take pleas
ure in meeting Gov. Swettenham a
the hour.
Gov. Swettenham replied Friday
in a very sarcastic letter and thanked
Admiral Davis for his assistance anC
told him in no unmistakable term;
that his services were no longer need
ed and that the patrol had no right
to assist the native police in running

STICK TO HOME MERCHANTS
DO YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING
IN THIS CITY.
Local Business Houses Deserve Your
Patronage = Have Laid In Large
Stocks For the HOLIDAYS.

The Washington merchants are adj
vertising in country papers about the
land to try to induce citizens of towns
about here to 80 there to shop.
The Evening Journal will not carry
such advertising.
Our merchants this year and all
others need all the trade they can
get.
They have laid in superb line Of
goods they have large and tasteful
stocks and they have a display as
select and choice as the Washington
merchants though not so large and
cumbersome.
The Journal carries great deal of
local advertising and lives with the
aid Of it. The Journal will not throw
down its local merchants at this time,
worst Of all when the holiday season
is on, nor at any time, and It does
not need the trifling sum the Wash
ington people offer for space.
The Evening Journal urges our peo-
pie to buy at home and disregard the
scheme to drag them to Washington.
Advertisers in The ournal need not
fear that sort Of competition in this
paper.
We, too. are out for business, but
not for that kind.
Local merchants spend practically
all their advertising money in this
city. they aid in keeping UP the papers
that exist here, they pay taxes and

live here, they spend their incomes
here, and it would be small thing
II they should expect home people
and home papers, all things being
considered, to stick Loyalty to them.
The larger places have nothing to Of
fer; our merchants have been wise
ia their selection of goods, articles
of jewelry, Of art and beauty, and to
turn them down and travel afar is to
rebuff, discourage and discredit them.
We again urge our people to visit
the handsome, splendid and rich
stocks of al sorts of goods displayed
here, try them by every test OF price
fancy and we sincerely believe they
will be found up to the standard of
the most curious and deliberate in
spection.
We must all hang together, or we
will all hang separately.
Such foreign advertising is at this
time immoral, for 1t invites us to plum
der our own merchants, who have in
good faith prepared for our holiday
wants.

BAD MAN CAPTURED
Nathan Robinson Arrested IN Pine
Hills Wednesday Night.
IS WANTED FOR sH0OTINs A MAN
Perforated the Anatomy of John
Norris With a Bullet From His
Gun--Trouble Said to Be Over
a Colored Woman.
a Colored Woman.

Nathan Robinson, colored, badly
wanted here for shooting John Nor
ris, also colored, was captured We'd
nesday night shortly before midnight
at the home of man named Miller,
in the pine hills, three miles from the
city, by officers Hollis and Heck, Dep
uty Sheriff Lemen and Constable Wild.
Robinson has the reputation of be-
ing bad man, but when he found
the officers were after him he crowded
under a bed and endeavored to hide.
He was hauled out by the heels and
surrendered forthwith.
1t appears that Robinson, in addi-
ton to being bad man and handy
with gun, is also a great admirer
of the ladies of color In his neighbor-
hood, and 1t is said that a woman is
at the bottom of the present case.
Several weeks ago he won the affec-
tions of Norris woman and this re-
suited in fight. During the alterca-
ton Robinson pulled his gun and
perforated the anatomy of Norris, and
the latter came to town and secured
a warrant for the arrest Of his as
sailant,
The officers have been on the look
out for Robinson for several weeks,
and learned Wednesday night that he
was hiding in the pine hills. His cap
ture was effected in a short time.
Robinson was brought to this city
and lodged in Jail, pending prelimi-
nary hearing in Justice Felker's court.

Much sympathy is felt for his fami-

NOBLE BIRD IS PASSING
KING TURKEY FALLS BEFORE
THANKSGIVING RUSH.
Conditions Here This Year Were
About the Same as Last = What
Thanksgiving Dinner Costs.

Even turkeys have their time te
fall. The last day of grace for the
King Bird passes and his head goes
on the block, the sacrificial altar fol-
the national appetite to be appeased al
the festal board today.
The financial panic had not deter
rent effect upon the turkey market in
Martinsburg yesterday and several hun
dred majestic gobblers and modest
hens were trotted into town and dis
played in all their tempting glory
before admiring eyes.
Many pocketbooks were consulted
and the whole range of fowls gone
over before any deals were made.
Prices had significant and wide
range.
Live turkeys sold anywhere from 15
to Is cents per pound while dressed
birds went at from 20 to rs cents.
Dealers could not explain this wide
difference. They simply fixed their
own prices. The stall men got a
bump when several hucksters unload
ed crates of live turkeys and offered
them at Is cents per pound. Prices
had been started at 16 to 18 cents.
Hens being considered the choicer
bird brought cent or two more than
the proud gobblers.
A dealer stated that numbers of
persons having turkeys refused to
sell and are holding them for Christ
mas expecting to get higher prices.
Many refused to sell at Is cents. He
thinks there will be plentiful sup
ply of turkeys for the holidays.
Those who care for other fowls had
variety to select from on market.
Live chickens sold for II and IL
cents per pound and from IS to rs
cents dressed. Ducks ranged from
IS to rs cents; geese at $1,25 aal $3.50
guineas, 35 cents; rabbits were plen-
tiful and sold for 20 cents.

meats, fish, etc. w7s' large Celery

lunches for quarter. Pumpkins sold
for Is to rs cents; parsnips, 20 cents;
