POSTERS STATE

The FREE PRESS publishes in an
other column this morning n statement
to the effect that he is not n candidate
for the United states Senate. Pre-
vious to the appointment of the Hon.
John w. Stewart by Governor Proctor
TO tho vacancy caused by the death Of
tho lamented Hon. Redheld Proctor it
had been freely stated thnt Congress-
man Foster would appreciate promo
ton to the United States Senate. and
the fact was generally discussed.
After the appointment of Senator
Stewart the statement was made in
behalf OF Congressman Foster that he
would be candidate for reelection
to Congress. and would cross other
bitches when he came to them.
Whatever his friends may have said
in his behalf, he has not announced
his candidacy for the United States
Senate, since he determined to be
candidate for Congress again. and he
sets forth this situation In his state

GENERAL FEELING OF
BUSINESS REVIVAL
Said That Every Saw Mill Between
Hattiesburg and Mendenhall Will
Have Resumed Operations Before
End of Next Week.

Senator D. NJ. Watkins returned yes
terday from Mendenhall where he
went to attend to some legal business.
He was asked by a representative of
the Daily News if he learned anything
with reference to the lumber and mill
business On this trip, and the Senator
stated that he was advised, on what
he believed to be reliable authority,
that every sawmill between Hatties-
burg and Mendenhall would resume
business either this week or next.
The Senator stated that he found
people generally were feeling more
cheerful than they had for many
months and that there was a feeling
abroad that business was picking up
and would continue to pick up until
there was much better times than have
existed during this year.
Senator Watkins is a very close OBJ
server and is very careful in his
statements. He noticed that the drum
mers were all cheerful and all felt
that a business revival was at hand;
he also found the business men were
expecting good times, especially with
the active revival of the lumber in
dustry, which is certain to come, as
Senator Watkins learned, before the
end of next week.
These mills are all in the Hatties-
burg trade territory and the fact that
they are all to resume operations soon
will mea an increase of business in
this city.

to the United. States, has been perem-

Dowager and will be succeeded by
Chung Men Yew. The latter recently
arrived in Japan, on his way to the
United States. He is making the trip
in company with Tang Shae vi. spe-
cial envoy of the Emperor of China,
who has been sent by his royal master
on diplomatic trip around the world.
While the Chinese government has
repeatedly denied any intention of re-
calling Mr.. WI, it appears certain that
such action is contemplated and that
Chung Men Yew is to be his successor.
1t is rumored in diplomatic circles here
that Mr.. WI has been indiscreet in his
relations with the powers that be in
Washington, and that upon his return
to China he will be stripped of much
of the honor and prestige heretofore
accorded him in the affairs of state of
the empire. Other reports have it that
his recall is due to the fact that he is
needed to counsel the Empress Dow.

matters now pending and that he will

Chung Men Yew who is slated to
succeed Mr.. WI at Washington, was
formerly Chinese consul-general at
Manila and is one of the leading men,
bers of the Chinese Opium Commits
sion.
He has spent much of his life in the
United States, where he is well known.
He was educated at Harvard Univer-
sity and was a member of the Delta
Kappa Epsilon fraternity,
Later he became interpreter at the
Chinese legation in Washington. He
served with number of Chinese min
listers including WI Ting Fang, and
was then sent to Madrid as charge
d'affaires. He afterward returned to
China and was given important work
in connection with the railway and
telegraph development. He is a wild

therein the frendless boys in the large cities and
give them an opportunity to rusticate during the

health and morals of the kids. Furthermore, the
lads are unfamiliar with high finance they are not
likely to reject the offer by saying that the money
for the parks is tainted.
