Navy IN Fight for a Wooden Indian

THE authorities OF the state Of Della
Are have communicated to the navy
department request that the wooden
statue of Tecumseh, Indian chief,
which formed the agurehead Of the
old ship of the line Delaware, be turn
ed over to them, but the officers who
have graduated from the naval acad-
envy, where the figure Of the old brave
is now, are not likely to permit its re-
moval without vigorous protest.
Not only is the feeling general that
the naval academy is the proper loca-
ton for as many Of the relics of the
old navy as can be secured, but the
peculiar position Of old Tecumseh in
the traditions of the academy make
its removal almost out Of the ques-

shot down Violet without a word of
warning. The men were not ac-

GENERAL OROZCO,
REBEL CHIEFTAIN
OLD-TIME FRIEND OF MADERo is
SAID TO BE LEADING THE
REVOLUTIONISTS

Washington, Feb. 23.-Large forces
OF Mexican rebels are moving on
Juarez. One of these bands, number
ing 1,400 men, is led, it is said, by
General Pascual Orozco, former mill
tary chief to Madero.
Confirmation of these rebel move
ments was received here today from
Colonel Stever, in command of the
American patrols at El Paso.
Officials Of both the state and war
departments consider recent develop
ments in northern Mexico as omin-
Gus.
From Casas Grandes a rumor has
come OF serious state of affairs
with a large rebel force massing at
that place.
Rumored movements of General
Orozco are without verification, but
are attracting attention.
Chihuahua continues a hotbed OF
revolution. A few parts of the repub-
lie are quiet, but others continue to
furnish a basis for the deep concern
felt here. All the women and children
living at Velardena and Asarco, where
the American Smelling and Refining
company is located, are reported to
have left the vicinity. Disturbances
are reported in Orizaba and Jalapa

THE OGLETHORPE
CASE WILL COME
Up IN SAVANNAH
INJUNCTION TO BE HEARD TODAY
BEFORE JUDGE sPEER IN
g.. U. S. COURT.
Question at Issue is Whether or Nes
the osiethorpe Company Can Take
Possession OF the Aostelry Which is
Now in Hands of Receiver.

Before Judge Emory Speer in the
United States court in Savannah today
one branch of the case of the Ogfe-
thorpe hotel will be taken up and de
cided. 1t is not. however, directly
connected with the action of variotas
creditors who recently placed the ho-
tel in bankruptcy.
1t will be remembered that Just q
few days before the American Re-
sort Hotel company, lessees Of the
Oglethorpe, went into bankruptcy, the
owners of the hotel, notified them to
surrender their lease within five
days, claiming that various sections
OF the contract had been violated. But
when the creditors filed petition for
involuntary bankruptcy, they likewise
filed an injunction to restrain the
owners from ia ing the management
of the hotel from the lessees, and this
is the point that will come up before
Judge Speer today.
The hotel is owned by the Ogle-
thorpe company, that being the name
Of the corporation, but which is really
the Atlanta, birmingham and Atlantic
railroad. The hotel was leased to the
American Resort Hotel company un-
der certain conditions, which the
owners claim, were violated, and, af-
ter he lessees had been requested to
surrender their lease the hotel was
placed in bankruptcy and receiver
appointed. The owners now claim
that they should be given possession
of the hotel, while the creditors claim
that it should remain in the hano3
of a receiver until the affairs OF the
1essees are finally settled.

creditors, and Judge Boiling Whit

CASE GOES TO
A HIGHER COURT
FRANK STUKES BOUND
OVER AT PRELIMINARY
TRIAL YESTERDAY.

Before Justice Lambright yesterday
Frank Stukes, the Evnrett RAILROAD
emp.oye who was arrested Monday
charged with shooting at Miss Lizzie
Silverstein, was bound over to tn;. SUI
perior court on the charge of shoo,.
ing at another not in his own ae.
tense, and was placed under bond
of $3.50. ...,
The case was fully aired at the
preliminary trial, and it developed
that trouble between young Stukes
and the young lady whom, it h all
legged. he shot at had existed for sew
eral days. & =
In brief the evidence showed that
the young man had been accused by
the young lady and her sister of
having made a remark about her.
They called on Stukes a day or two
before the shooting and asked if he
mad made such a remark Unpleas-
ant words passed between them at the
time, which finally terminated in the
shooting Sunday afternoon.
oIuhcS CldItuS LudI the young laOy
and her sister came into his office
Sunday afternoon, and renewed the
difficulty, that one of the young ladies
struck him over the head with a
stick, whereupon he fired off his pis-
tol more in an effort to frighten them
out Of the office than anything else,
and that he never attempted to shoot
either of them.
On the other hand the young ladies
testified that Stukes fired upon them
without provocation, that the bullet
passed through the hair of Miss Liz
zie Silverstein, and that they left the
office nearly frightened to death.
After hearing all the evidence judge
Lambright decided to send the case
to the superior court. Stukes was
represented by Attorney Joseph Nor
ris, while Co. F. H. Harris appeared
for the state. .

together with number of his associ-
ates, will arrive in Brunswick during

with the local committee which has
had the matter in charge for the past
wears or more, and it is likely that a
contract will be entered into, which
will mean that Brunswick is to be the
terminus of a new road.
Various stockholders of the Bruns-
wick Terminal Railway Securities
company, owners of considerable
property in Brunswick, are also in
terested in the G., C. & p, and for
the past several months they have
been working in an effort to COM

of the line to this city, which is to
be the terminus of the road.
Members CT the local committee an

of the road was a certainty, it being
only. a. matter of time, and it now
seems that within the next few months
active work will, be. started, and be-
fore another year arrives Brunswick
will be the terminus of four railroad
systems.
