PERCY WILL ANSWER
MAGAZINE ATTACK

Washington, Dec. 9.-On next Tues
day Senator Leroy Percy of Missis-
sipp will address the senate on a
question of personal privilege. He will
reply to an attack made upon him in

during his absence in Europe. The ar
ticle in question purported to set forth
the political conditions existing in
Mississippi and the election of Mr..
Percy to the United States Senate to
succeed the late Senator A. ]. Me
Laurin
The friends of Senator Percy who
have read the attack upon him not
only resent the viciousness of the per-
sonal charges describing as "a wanton
Misrepresentation of Mississippi" In
his speech next Tuesday Senator
Percy will say whether he will serve
out his constitutional term or resign
before it's expiration. His friends are
urging him to serve out his term. His
speech is eagerly anticipated by his
Democratic colleagues, all of whom
esteem him highly.

Grover Locke was acquitted of the

who sat in judgment on his case, the
verdict being rendered this morning
shortly before ten o'clock. Locke was
Immediately released from custody
and walked forth a free man. The
jury had been out since late yesterday
afternoon when the case was sub

word had eminated from the Jury
room from the time the jury went out
until it reported, it began to look like
hung jury and mistrial
The jury was not polled and it
could not be learned how the ballot
ing stood in the case, but it is evi-
dent considerable argument was in
dulged in before those opposed to ac-
quittal at first were won over.
This case attracted more attention
than any that has come to trial dur
ing the present term of court. and
three days We're consumed in securing
la jury and introducing the volume Of
evidence-sometimes of the salacious
variety. The nature of large part of
the testimony on either side was Civ

the truth, which left the iurymen with

Protest against large southern dele

based on the fact that most delegates
are Federal office holders, who gener-

their positions, Lyons hopes that by
barring office holders all danger will

ON PETITIONS
Citizens Will Ask the Legislature to
Pass the Medical Association
Measures.
Special to The Net1s.

Jackson, Miss. Dec. 9.-Petitions
bearing the signatures of more than
900 citizens will be presented to the
legislature at It's approaching session
urging that the several measures en-
G0rsed by the Mississippi Medical AS
sociation be given favorable consid-
Grafton and passage.
rho petitions have been placed in
circulation by members of the medical
fraternity i'll every county, and are
being numcrously signed. Briefly
stated, the association asks that Il
bureau of vital statistics be created
a large appropriation made for the
campaign of education on sanitation
and hygiene being waged by the state
board of health, and that a higher edu-
cational standard be required of ap-
plicants for license to practice medi-
cine in the state The latter measure
contempates an amendment that will
require every applicant for medical
license to first take a standard course
of literary study in some reputable
college.
The caption of the petition sets
forth that according to government
statistics, forty-two per cent of the
deaths that annually occur in this
country are caused by preventable dis
eases, and the most important ques-
tion before the American people today
is the conservation of human life.

maine DESTROYED
FROM OUTSIDE
After Thirteen Years he Naval
Board Finally Reaches
Decision.

Washington, Dec. 9.-The United
States battleship Maine which sank
beneath the waters of Havana harbor
in February, 1898, as the result of an
explosion, was blown up from the out
side. This wa sannounced today by
the naval board which has been ev-
amining the wreck. he finding con
firms the report of the original invest
gators who made a superficial examf-
nation of the wreck shortly after the
disaster.
The statement given out by the
Navy Department is brief. Secretary
Meyer does not believe it necessary to
issue any extended explanation of the
boards conclusions beyond the nat
statement that an exterior explosion
was responsible for the loss of the
warship and the lives of many men
The statement follows:
"The board finds that the ,Yf.utc-
to the bottom of the Maine were caus-
ed by the explosion of a charge Of
low form of explosives exterior to the
ship between frames % and 81. strake
b, port side.
This resulted in igniting and cx.
ploding the contents of the siX-inch
reserve magazine, A-14-M, said con
tents including a large quantity of
black powder. The more or less COM
plete explosion of the contents of the
remaining forward magazine followed
The magazine explosion resulted in
the destruction of the vessel"
Secretary Meyer announced that
there might be a further statement
on the report of the board after it
had been considered by the President
One member of the board was of the
opinion it never would be published
in full but would be kept in the con
1idential archives of the Navy Depart
ment.
The declaration that a 1ow form
of explosive" was used in the outside
explosion, indicated a belief that a
mine and not a dirigible torpedo was
the instrument of destruction.
This only deepens the mystery of
the destruction ofthe Maine. A mine
charged with sufficient gun powder to
blow in the bottom of the ship must
have weighed several hundred pounds
To plant such a mine and lay the
electric connections necessary for its
discharge would have required the
services of a number of men.

most pleasing personality, affable, and
with fuency of speech in conversa-
ton and a knowledge and grasp Of
public questions, broadminded states

withal makes him charming company
The bishop expressed agreeable sur
prise at finding such a progressive,
big-citified little city as he found Hat
tiesburg to be, remarking that he felt
like he was entering his old home, At
ltanta, and predicts a bright future of
large development of the natural re-
sources of the section. In his opin-
ion no spot in the world had been
more richly favored than Mississippi

out of twelve. The bishop may be put
down as a typical booster of Missis-
sippi; he has already obtained a good
knowledge of its resources, possibili-
ties and needs and proposes to contri-
butte his part to its development.
The cordial reception and greeting
accorded the bishop has made a most
favorable impression on him and he is
duly appreciative of the courtesies
and attention shown him by members
of the church and citizens who are not
members OF that church.
Bishop Gum will preach at the
Sacred Heart church tomorrow morn
ing and large congregation will
doubtless greet him; and on Monday
evening at the Hotel Hattiesburg a re-
ception and banquet will be given in
his honor. Representative citizens of
the community regardless of church
affiliations have accepted the invita-
tions to meet the distinguished visitor
and the affair promises to be an en-.
joyable one and splendid success.

stork being anticipated the lady was
removed to an infirmary, an institution

Russian, but as the birth occurred
under the German flag, technically
speaking, it is to that flag she owes
