Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND. Va. June 27.-The rumol
that former Gov. A. ]. Montague is pre-
pairing to bolt the democratic ticket in the
interest of the Taft candidacy for the
presidency, which came to a head in this
city last night, continues to agitate po-
litical circles.
Montague is out of the city tonight
engaged in the trial of a criminal case In
a distant county. Efforts to reach him
by telephone and telegraph today were
unavailing.
His brother, Lynch Montague, when told
of the report said he did not believe it.
He said he had not heard his brother ex
press any such intention.
1t Is a fact, however, that the friends OF
Gov. Montague are carefully refrainine
from expressing themselves on the sub.
ject.
1t will probably be several days before
Montague will return to Richmond. Ir
the meantime his position in the impend-
ing campaign is the sole topic of con-
versation in political circles.
1t is said that Montague will attempt
to swing the state into the republican
column this fall, and that in the even,
Taft is successful the Virginia lawyer is
to be promoted to federal judgeship.

next session of Congress the state of Vir-
ginia is to be divided into three districts.
Judge II. c. Mcdowell is to have Tie

the eastern district.
Montague is to be given the new middle
x-strict, which will take in Alexandria
Charlottesville, Staunton, Lynchburg and
Danville. The courts Of the present dis
tricts are badly overcrowded at this time.

In the Government Service.

While Everett was professional for
ester in the government service, and Mr.
Wakely of Chicago was in the govern
ment service as a teacher in Negros. act
ing as superintendent of the native schools
in that island, they both, with assistants.
were seeking for information as to the
natural resources of that country.
Wakely being acquainted with the long
belt regions of southeastern Georgia and
north Florida. it was proposed to investi-
gate the possibility of cultivating the tree
cotton in the Sea Island or long cotton
belt of the SOUTH not with the view OF
superseding the annual cultivation of Sea
Island cotton, but with the view of pro-
ducing an increased supply Of that much
desired cotton from the south.
The long leaf planters, If the idea
proved feasible, could have as many cot
ton trees as possible, and also cultivate
as much cotton otherwise as possible.
Wakely wrote his last letter from Bats.
Negros Island. in the Philippines. April
% and sent with the letter some of the
tree cotton and some seed. The letter
says:
will try to send land he did so dO) in this
letter little of the tree cotton and some
seeds. The seeds are very loose in the
cotton. and as trees on the coast are
twice as big as in the province (meaning
at kabankalanD each tree must produce a
bushel and half of the loose cotton"
The letter gives graphic description
of the hardships of the two Americans
in their difficult climb over the mountains
of Negros. A prophetic hint of the fate
of the two is mention of the spears of
the hillmen visible outside of each hut in
the mountains
