HE'LL OF TERRoRIZED
PEOPLE AND MAD REBELS

BARCELONA. via Cerbere, Francs.
Aug. 2.-Barcelona has been a perfect
hell. Half the population is terrorized
and the other half mad with blood. The
troops Of the garrison. AMID shouts OF
approval from the mob. repeatedly re-
fused to fire on the people and the work
of repression tell upon the police and
civil guard.
These charged the revolutionaEies and
used their firearms freely everywhere but
numbers were against them. AS this dis
patch is sent the streets are in possession
OF the barricaded insurgents. The de-
struction of property has been great.
Barcelona is completely isolated ana

Suppose the journal stated:
81 did not vote to sustain Governor
Smith. 1 voted to dismiss Mr.. McLendon
because he dipped down and pulled out
81 800 in a bond deal? What sort Of a
record would you have?" he asked.
CAME AS A SURPRISE.
Senator Matthews said the motion to
change the journal came as surprise to
him.
THE senator from the Twenty-irst has
seen Mt to attack the motives of the
senator from the Forty-1rst because of
his Republicanism. The fact he Is a Re
publican and is not mixed up with Dem
ocratic politics is assurance Of the purity
Of his motives. 1 had not thought OF this
matter seriously before, but since listen
ing to the speech of the senator from the
Twenty first. 1 am convinced that II is
only right that senators should be given
the right to explain their votes" said
Senator Mathews.
The argument OF the senator from
the Twenty-flrst can not be dignified by
the name of argument?' said Senator
Matthews.
Sauce for goose. not gander.
Senator Burwell asked II he did not
think. IL would be equally fair for him
(Senator BurwelD to be given the right
to place his reasons for voting in the
record If that right were given the
senator from the Twenty-ninth.
Senator Matthews replied that the
senator's question was trivial and not
worthy of consideration.
Senator Womble asked II Il was not
fact that the reason the senator
wanted the journal amended was to
give Mr.. McLendon an opportunity for
framing a bill Of exceptions II his case
was carried to court.
Senator Matthews replied that the
purpose was merely to make the rec
ord state the facts; II these facts
would be of service to Mr.. McLendon
he thought they ought to go in the
record.
CHANGED HIS MIND.
Senator Sellers asserted that he had
voted against the Burwell resolution.
When the matter Of changing the rec
ord was first suggested to him ne
thought 1t ppreposterous; but upon
consideration he thought 1t only RICH
that any fact which would help Mr..
McLendon should go in the record. He
was friend of the governor but ne
knew the vote Of the senate had not
sustained him.

The legislature should sustain the order
of former Gov. Hoke Smith in suspending
Commissioner McLendon and if
Mr. McLendon should not be able TO
substantiate his claim to the office in
the courts.
Moore will get the appointment is hypo-
thetically made, IT is Of interest since
the Chatham county citizen has long had
ambitions to sit in the councils Of the
commission.
So great was this ambition IN the recent
past that Judge Moore sought the ap-
pointment of railroad commissioner I'M

Smith, The applicant was declined.
1t is known that Judge Moore is hand
In glove with Governor Brown on the
port rate question.
It will also be remembered that Chat
ham county gave Governor Brown the
largest majority in his campaign.
The fact that south Georgia is clamor-
ingffor representation on the commission
also lends material weight to the applica-
ton Of Judge Moore.
II ia known that the friends of J. r.
Smith are active in his behalf and are
urging Governor Brown to reward his
campaign manager with the appointment
on the commission, but Judge Moore, it
is said, will be named II the vacancy oc-

Situation in Barcelona
Remains Quite Shrouded

PARIS, Aug. 2-The facts as to the
situation at Barcelona remain somewhat
shrouded, as no correspondent has yet
reached the city, which is isolated by
land and sea. The censored reports
coming out of Madrid are suspected of
being overoptimistic. Nevertheless, 1t
appears certain that General Santiago
has succeeded in restoring a semblance
Of order in the city. and today a seri-
Gus effort to resume work will be made.
At the solicitation of the authorities,
the employers Of Barcelona have
agreed to offer a premium Of a week
wages to every person coming back
to work. At what cost in life and
property comparative tranquility has
been restored in Barcelona, however,
continues unknown. The various re-
ports agree that the troops, by the use
Of machine guns. drove the revolution
lists back
The main body Of the mob escaped
in the workmen's quarters, whence the
revolutionists were finally expelled by
smells from the guns on Fort Mentjuich.
Refugees arriving at the frontier SPEAK

the dead at thousands, but allowances
must be made for panic Whether or
not the ring-leaders who were captured
and were condemned by the court
martial have been executed is not yet
clear. Some reports declare that Gen
eral Santiago has not yet approved the
death sentences. 1t is known, however,
that Emiliano Iglesias, editor of the
Progresso, was shot without trial

Great Excitement Reigns Among
Working Glasses and Conditions
Are Grave in Northern Part of
Country.
ALFONSO SOUGHT TO
GO TO BARCELONA;
is FINALLY DISSUADED
District North of Barcelona Is in
the Hands of Revolutionaries,
and Much Additional Blood
shed Is Expected.

BAYONNE. France, Aug. 2.-Reliable
news regarding the situation in Spain,
received here this morning from San Sc
bastian, represents conditions as very
grave throughout the northern part OF
the country where all the trades unions
have given notice of the beginning Of a
general strike today.
The government mas seized all the tele-
graph and telephone wires in the af-
fected provinces. The purpose is to pre-
vent the leaders Of the strike movement
from communicating with each other.
The transmission of newspaper dispatches
has been entirely stopped, forcing a sus-
pension of a majority of the journals.
The greatest excitement reigns among
the working classes Reports received
here direct from Madrid say that King
Alfonso is greatly depressed over the in
terror situation. He desired to throw his
personal popularity in the scale, and 1t
was with difficulty that he could be dis
suaded from going 10 Barcelona. Premier
Maura told him IL would be equivalent to
suicide to enter that hotbed of anarchy.
Some of the highest officers of the army
are protesting vigorously against the
maintenance of the censorship. They re-
gard this restriction as foolish and use
less and giving place to the widest and
most exaggerated stories. Gen. Lopez
Domingues and General Polavieja, mem
bers of the superior council of war, have
protested formally against the censor
ship, saying they had received dispatches
from officers at the front insisting that
all the ringleaders who were captured
and were condemned by the courtmartial
have been executed is not yet clear. Some
reports declare that General Santiago has
not yet approved the death sentences. 1t
is known, however, that Emiliane Igles-
las. editor of the Progresso, was shot
without trial.
MORE BLOODSHED EXPECTED.
But If order has been restored at BARGE
Iona 1t seems equally certain that the out
lying country, especially the district north
OF the city is in the hands of the revo-
lutionaries. and that the task Of reducing
the remainder of the province will prob
ably entail much additional bloodshed.
Even the official dispatches from Madrid
speak of the necessity of restoring order
in the interior of the province and of the
difficulty of dislodging the anarchists"
who have taken refuge in the mountains.
Some reports insist that a republic has
already been proclaimed and a regular
junta is directing the operations Of the
revolutionists.
