MRS. LOGAN IS ACCUSER
WIDOW OF FAMOUS GENERAL
FLAYS HER SON-IN-LAW.
Charges Lieut.-Col Tucker With Scandal
Gus Conduct In the Philippines
Investigation Begun.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., June %
What promises to be another cause ce-
lebre in the American army has been
precipitated through the action of Mrs.
John A. Logan, widow of the famous
Civil war general, in filing a complaint
at the war department alleging scan
dalous conduct on the part of her son-in-
law, Lieut.-Col William +. Tucker If
an investigation already begun by the
war department should substantiate her
statements. Lieut.-Col. Tucker stands in
danger of court martial.
The interest in the Tucker case is
heightened by the recent reports that
Lieut.-Col. Tucker and his wife, Mrs.
Logan's daughter, recently separated.
Mrs. Tucker is now in Washington, living
with her mother. and her husband, Lieut.
Col. Tucker, is stationed in Chicago, per
forming his duties as paymaSter of the
department of the lakes.
The complaint filed by Mrs. Logan is
said to be based upon the way in which
her son-n-law conducted himself while
stationed in the Philippines. Officials of
the war department decline to make pub
lie the nature of Mrs. Logan's alleGa-
tons.
The military authorize recently issued
an official order in regard to the rela-
tiOns which should exist between army
men stationed in the far eastern archi
pelagO and Filipino women. These rcla
tons have tended TO bring disgrace upon
the army and the United States and a
number of court martals have occurred
which have resulted in the dismissal OF
the officers involved.
so far as Lieut.. Col. Tucker is CON
cerned there is absolutely no flaw in his
military record.

NO HOPE FOR NEGRO,
SAYS HOKE SMITH.
Improved by Slavery, and Few Helped
by Learning From Books-Make
Him Do Manual Labor.

ATLANTA, Ga, June 90 Special !
-lioke Smith was sworn in as governor
Of Georgia at noon today, succeeding
Joseph NJ. Terrell. The occasion was
one of enthusiasm for the thousands of
Democrats who came from all parts of
the state 10 participate in the ceremonies.
The Inauguration took place i'll the open
air, where the oath Of office was admin
lstcrcd in the presence of both houses
of the Legislature, members of the SUI
premc court and hundreds of others
prominent in the political and business
life of Georgia. a public reception at
the executive mansion was held this aft
ernOOn.
In bis inaugural address Gov. Smith
suggested special legislation to prevent
corporations from using improper intiu-
cncr to control legislation.
The contribution of money for political
purposes 10y corporations or special IN
tcrcSts the governor declared should be
prohibited by a state law
Discussing the questions of the CON
troll of the railroads and public service
corporations, GOV. Smith said:
1t is especially important at this time
when many are ready to transfer to the
national government all such control,
that the state should show its capacity
to meet its part of the responsibility
Gov. Smith is one of the leading LA
Toilette Democrats" of the south.
Continuing the governor said:
Amy plan for the negroes which fails
to recognize the difference between the
white and black races will fail, The
honest student of history knows that the
negro had fuR opportunity tor genera
tons to develop before the days Of slav-
cry; that the negro race was improved
by slavery and that the majority of the
negroes in this state have ceased to i'm
prove since slavery. Few have been
helped by learning from books All have
been helped who have been taught or
made to work. The negro child should
be taught manual labor and how to live.
The negro school should help the negro,
not njurr him. Racial differences can
not be overcome by misguided phiIan-
thropists"
