COLUMBUS WILL MARK
 SCENE OF LAST BATTLE

Columbus, Ga, December H.-(Special.) A movement has been launched to have q national park established at the site of the laY battle of the civil war east of the Mississippi river. The battle was fought just opposite Columbus, on the Alabama side of the Chattahoochee river, and terminated on the Georgia side, where there was some firing and one or more fa- talities, a distinguished Confederate ot- ficer being killed just after he crossed the river, at a spot where a great cotton factory now stands. The city of Colum- bus is preparing to mark the scene of the ending of the battle with a large rough powder, taken from the battle field, a suitably engraved bronze plate being at tached to the stone to explain its sig nificanee. This stone, emblematic of war. will be located directly between two of the largest cotton factories in the city, emblematic of the present industrial spirit of the city which lost $470o0,OOO of prop erty when the Federal troops captured the town on that April Sunday long ago.

JOHN MITCHELL
 WILL BE INVALID
PRESIDENT OF MINE WORKERS IS SUFFERING FROM A CHRONIC TROUBLE AND IT IS SAID HE CANNOT RECOVER.

Indianapolis, Ind, December H.-(Spe- cial9-It is announced that while John Mitchell, president of the United Mine Workers of America, is not critically i'll at present, he cannot hope to entirely recover his health and will always be an invalid. The operation which the miners leader underwent some time ago was not entirely successful and since then he has suffered intense pain and has been com pelled to wear the bandage which slipped yesterday, causing his collapse.
 A special delivery letter was delivered to Mrs Mitchell at the modest home in Spring Valley. H., this morning. The letter. while telling of Mitchell's illness, also told Mrs Mitchell that the wish of her life had been gratified by the action of her husband, who. in which he be- lieved to be his dying moment, embraced the Catholic faith.
 The letter was written by Father Kil- lian, who anointed the miners leader yes terday
 After President Mitchell has further re- covered he will be received into full com munion in the church. While Mitchell family are Roman Catholics he had never been confirmed. He has always believed in the faith however, and frequently said to his friends that when tho end came he desired to die as his wife and children have lived-devout Catholics.
 The condition of John Mitchell, presi- dent of the United Mine Workers, had so improved tonight that his physician said he would be able to take his Christmas dinner with his family at Spring Valley,

April 1C 1865, beginning late in the aft ernoon and continuing until some time after nightfall. The attacking troops came from the west, being a branch of General Sherman's celebrated army, and under command of General Wilson. The home defenders were small in number but gallant in the resistance they offered. Breastworks were erected on the neigh boring Alabama hills, and it was thus across the state line that most of the battle was waged. The result. the capture of the city was almost inevitable The spot which the United States government will be asked to incorporate into a park marking the site of the last battle in the eastern section of the country is one of great beauty. From the high hills a sweeping view of the city of Columbus IS afforded. big masonry dam across the Chattahoochee river has just been com- pleted almost within stones throw of the battle field, and within view of the site of the proposed park are two other great dams which mark the progress of developing the immense water power of this river.

STUYVESANT FISH
 FOND OF CHICAGO
ILLINOIS CENTRAL MAN MAY
 MAKE THE WINDY CITY HIS
 HOME DURING PART OF THE YEAR.

Chicago, December 2l.-(Special)- Stuyvesant Fish likes Chicago. Some of his intimate friends reported today that the New York millionaire has determined to make Chicago his home for at least six months of every year.
 Though MT. Fish declined to discuss the report, the declaration of his associates is that he has determined if he is reelected director of the Illinois Central in his fight to curb the influence of F. H. Harri- man, to live in the state where the prop erty he so long controlled is centered. This report concerning the New York railroad king came after another day Tn Judge Balls court, in which counsel for F. H. Hartman sought to combat the ar gurnents made by Edgar H. Farrar, attor- ney for MT. Fish, against the motion of the Hartman faction for the dissolution of the injunction to restrain the voting of the stock held by the Union Pacihc railroad and the Railroad Securities com pany.
 Attorney R. s. Lovett, representing Mr. Hartman, said if this argument is to be sustained the state of Illinois will be up- set It is a fact, for example, that the majority of the stock of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad is owned by the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific Railroad companies. This stock is pledged to meet the bonds owned the world over to the amount of several mill lion dollars. If the view of the complain ant is sustained these bonds would be ab- solutely void of security.
 ! At least in the opinion of the com | plainant all such stock is illegally held, said Mr.-@sovett. Chicago is one of the | sreatest railroad eenters of the world, and
 surely the Illinois legislature is not so- l ing to turn back the wheels of progress. i The arguments will be resumed Mon- | day
