NAVAL BILL IS AGREED UPON
II Also Provides for Eight New Sub

Washington, Aug. 19.-Conferees on
the naval appropriation bill agreed
today to provide for one battleship at
a cost not greater than $15,000,00
An appropriation of s., 535, 900 is to be
available for the beginning of the
work. No agreement was reached as
to size, dimensions or armament.
The naval bill in other respects was
adopted as approved by the previous
conference, and is now acceptable to
house and senate.
The naval bill as agreed to also
provides for eight submarines. During
negotiations between the house and
senate that number was once cut t.
four. The original number will now
we provided. This years building bro
gram also will include six torpedo
boats, two golfers and one machine
ship.
1t was agreed that the new bat
tleship should not be a super dread
naught, but vessel of standard size.
The question of armament was left
to the naval constructors and the
secretary of the navy.
The bill was agreed upon also
provides for round-the- world wire

partment could keep in touch with it's
ships on virtually every part of the
globe.
A movement to name the battleship

is the centennial of the battle between
the old Constitution and the Guerrier.
Under the law the secretary of the
navy would be obliged to christen the
new ship Arizona or New Mexico, but
the senate and house conferees will
be urged to amend the bill with a
provision that the new ship be named
after cold Ironsides."

Be GIVEN GEORGIA BOYS

Two Georgia boys have the oppor-
tunity to get the benefit of a course
in the State Agricultural College

by President w. w. Finley of the

which should attract the attention of
deserving young men throughout the
state. Competitive examinations will
be held under the supervision of the
county superintendent in the coun-
ties affected at the county seat on
Saturday, August "a.
One of the scholarships is the gift
of the Southern Railway and the Geor-
gia Southern and Florida, and is open
to young men from the counties of
Appling, Bibb, Crawford, Dodge. Har-
ris, Houston, Jeff Davis, Meriwether,
Butts, Glynn, Monroe, Muscogee, Pike,

rien, Lowndes, Echols, Clinch and

BOTH CANDIDATES
CLA|MAy ICI 0RY
IN THE PRIMARY
CONGRESSIONAL RACE IN THE
ELEVENTH SEEMS TO BE
VERY CLOSE.
MANY COUNTIES DOUBTFUL
Walker Headquarters at VaIdosta
Claim Ten Counties for Their Can
didate, While Judge Parker's
Friends Say He Has Good Majority.

With both Judge Parker and Col
onel Walker claiming a victory the
congressional race in the Eleventh
district will be finally settled at he
polls tomorrow, when Congressman
Brantleys successor will be nominal
ed.
From the Walker headquarters at
Valdosta and the Parker headquar-
tiers at Waycross come the announce
ments that both of the candidates will
win; both of them will carry many
of the same counties, and there will,
according to claims, be about fifty
votes in the Brunswick convention to
be held on August 81, when the dis
trict only has total of SO votes.
These claims, Of course, are always
made by opposing candidates or their
campaign managers, but in this case,
which has been an unusually interest
ing one, at least seven of the six
teen counties are claimed by both the
candidates; in fact the Walker head
quarters do not concede the loss of
more than two counties in the entire
district, but only claim as sure for
their candidate ten counties. If these
ten counties are carried then Walker
will have a total of "a votes in the
convention.
On the other hand the Parker head
quarters, while not making any claims
as to the number of counties that
will be carried, have issued state
ment claiming Judge Parker's NOM
ination by safe majority.
OF the sixteen counties in the state
these are placed in the doubtful COL
umn: Wayne, jeff Davis, Coffee, APP
ping, Brooks, Irwin, Charlton, Cam
den and Clinch. OF these counties
both of the candidates are laying
claim to all of them.
To those, however, who have watch
ed the progress of the race and who
have viewed it from a non-partisan
stand, agree that all of the counties
are truly doubtful, and in some of
them ten or fifteen votes may decide
the contest.
At any rate it seems that the re-
suit is still very much in doubt, and
not until the votes are counted after
the polls close tomorrow will it be
known who is to be Congressman
Brantley's successor.

MORSE TO SOON START
A NEW STEAMSHIP LINE
FORMER OFFICIALS OF THE A., q.
g. A. AND BEE LINE TO
BE WITH HIM.

Announcement has been made from
Houston, Tex, that Charles w. Morse
of New York, who was recently re-
leased from the Federal prison at At
lanta, has completed all details for
operating an extensive steamship SER
vice between Houston and New Or
leans and New York. He will also run
line to Porto Rico from New York.
Officials of steamship lines have
confirmed the reports of Morse's new
undertaking. Several years ago Morse
was in Houston and took decided
interest in the new ship canal, which
is now being built from there to the
Gulf, and it is learned Morse espe-
cially intends to capture the Houston
trade on completion of the project and
later enter Panama canal traffic
Morse will come into direct com
petition with the Southern Pacific
steamship system, controlled by the
Hartman interests.
c. l.. Dimon, formerly of the Texas
Steamship company, who will have
charge of the Morse line in Texas, al
ready has obtained four vessels from
the Great Lakes and two new ones,
which are larger and more complete
than any now in the coastwise serv-
ice, are being built.
John Rowland, formerly traffic man
ager of the Atlanta, Birmingham &
Atlantic railroad, will be general traf-
fic agreement with the Grand Trunk
railway also has been arranged
The line, will handle both freight
and passenger traffic. The new SER
vice wa be inaugurated early this
fall, probably October 1.

candidate might come out against
Judge Conyers, the same argument
holds-Judge Conyers has been on
the bench for four years, he is very
strong in the circuit, and is an able,
upright, and efficient judge, and a
stranger would have difficulty in de-
feating him SO it seems to me that
Judge Conyers' friends ought to unite
and defeat Mr.. Thomas.
This Is not the county unit It is
the plurality vote, and every vote
counts. / have never asked this favor
at your hands before, but, having
assurances from all over the circuit
that my candidacy is being fayorably

ceiving strong support in all quar-

people to give me good vote on

me, and I have had hard struggle,
but feel that If my home people

SHOOTS DAUGHTERS, Wife
AND THEN END HIS LIFE

East Bourne, England, Aug. 49,
Capt Hicks Murray, an officer of the
Gordon Highlanders, last night killed
hiss two young daughters, severely
VOL nded his wife and then committed
suicide. He is supposed to have be-
come suddenly insane.
After the shooting the house in
which Captain Murray resided was
mysteriously burned to the ground.
His wounded wife was found later
wandering about the street screaming
for her children. Five bodies were
found in the ruins of the Murray
home. OF these two have not been
identified.
Captain Murray left letter in which
he said: 81 am hopelessly ruined and
have for this reason killed all those
dependent on me. should like all of
us to be buried in one grave. God
forgive me-"
The tragedy had background Of
sensational mystery Two months
ago Captain Murray representing him
self as Richard Charles Mackie, an
American, took the house and INSTALL
ed his wife, her sister and the latter's
children. OF the household the only
survivor is Mrs. Murray, who was
found wandering in the vicinity suf-
fering from severe wound and un-
able or unwilling to explain the cir
cumstances Of the tragedy. In sill
yer case, in the ruins of the house,
was found enough British coin to in
dicate that poverty was not the cause
OF the tragedy.

some quarters that my election might
hurt Judge Conyers two years from

fully, and, when Mr.. ]. II. Thomas
made the statement publicly that he
intended TO oppose Judge Conyers,
then decided that l could not benefit
Judge Conyers by remaining out of

There are two arguments in this
matter which seem unanswerable-the
first is, if / can defeat Mr.. Thomas
in twenty-one days Judge Conyers,
who has been on the bench for four
years and who has presided to the
great satisfaction of the people of the
entire circuit, will surely defeat him
after his successful tenure of four
years. The second is that Mr.. Thomas
Is now an avowed candidate for Judge
against Judge Conyers. If you elect
him solicitor general you give him
imore power, more prestige and more
opportunity to mix with the people
for two more years and make him
more formidable. II you defeat him
