POPULAR MAJORITY WILL Be
ABOUT FOURTEEN THOUSAND
Probability of a Deadlock Settled Yes

Walker Column.

Col. J. Randall Walker of Lowndes
county, will succeed Hon. w. G.
Brantley of this city, in congress
having been nominated in the state
primary held on Wednesday by safe
majority.
Returns received Wednesday night
from all but one county in the dis
Charlton-indicated that there
was possibility of a tie vote, but
yesterday came the announcement
that Charlton had not only gone for
Col. Walker, but that he had also car
ried Brooks, which was given to
Judge Parker yesterday. With the
addition of Brooks and Charlton the
Valdosta candidate will have total
of "a votes in the congressional con-
vention to be held in this city on
August 81, while Judge Parker will
have only IL.
There was great interest all over
the district yesterday in the final re-
suit in Charlton, as the early returns
giving Brooks county to Judge Parker
made deadlock appear very prob
able. 1t was thought by many that
Judge Parker would receive a major
ity in Charlton, the people over the
district generally having already
started figuring on deadlock.

CITY WILL NOW BUY some
WATER FRONT PROPERTY
NEW PROBLEM TO FACE MEN,
BERS OF cOUNCIL-ACTIO
SOON TO BE TAKEN.

The city Of Brunswick has got to
purchase some wharf property. Just
how much the municipality must own
is not as yet known, but in order to
receive appropriations from the fed
eral government, it is now necessary
for the city government of every sea-
port city to own waterfront property.
Only last week the state legislature
passed a charter amendment giving
the city this authority, and it is ex-
pected that special committee from
council will at once be appointed to
look into the matter.
Jacksonville considerd the matter
of such vital importance that it has
agreed to pay all the expenses Of
special session of the Florida legls-
lature in order to get a bill passed
giving that city the right to purchase
waterfront property. Every seaport
will now act at once, or the appropri'
ations to be made for harbor improve
ments will be discontinued.
Just what waterfront property WIZ
be purchased by the local council
of course, Is not known, but the sud-
feet will be looked into at once. I

CHARL TON---BROOkS
IN WALKER COLUMN,
GIVES HIM MAJORITY
SECOND VETO FOR BILL
FOR ARMY APPROPRIATIONS

Washington, Aug. 22.-Under yir-
tual notice from President Taft that
he would again vetos the army ap-
preparation bill if it contained any
riders" affecting the tenure of office
of General Wood, chief of staff, the
house and senate conferees today
struck from the bill CONTEMPLATED
provision to the effect, and presented
report free from the features upon
which the president based his first
veto.
A report that the long delayed
army appropriation bills as agreed
upon by conferees of the house and
senate, again contains provision in
terpreted by the administration to be
rider affecting the tenure of office
of Major General Leonard Wood as
chief of STAG, today endangered what
appeared to be complete under
standing upon the measure.
President Taft vetoed the army bill
few weeks ago because it contained
a provision to legislate General Wood
out of his office On March 4. Yes
'terday officials of the administration
learned that the house and senate
conferees, had agreed upon the pro-
visions regarding the service record
necessary to make an officer eligible
for chief of staff, which they interrre-
ted as affecting not only General
Wood, but General Funston and other
officers. These officials notified the
conferees that upon authority If Pres
ident Taft they could say the bill
surely would be>vetoed second time
if it came to the white house again
containing such a provision.
Such an ultimatum reached the
house and senate managers, it - is
said, late last night, and caused them
early today to go into meeting to
consider it. Congress practically has
decided to adjourn Saturday, A veto
might delay the closing, but President
Taft is said to be determined to dis
approve the army bill if it carries any
special legislation such as he OBJ
jected to before.

Total
AS to the Majority.

Until the complete returns are re-
ceiyed from all counties in the dis
trict it will be impossible to tell ex-
actly what popular majority Colonel
Walker received over Judge Parker
In some counties the contest was un-
usually interesting. Judge Parker
carried Appling by majority of Is;
he carried JEFF Davis by a reported
majority of 4; Colonel Walker car
ried Charlton by majority of At,
while he received less than 10 ma
jority in Brooks. Basing the figures
on the estimated majorities of the
two candidates in the various counties
that they carried, Colonel Walker
will have a popular majority of be-
tween 1900 and 1900.
Now that it has been definitely de-
cided that a deadlock will not be the
result, there will not be much inter-
est attached to the convention to be
held in this city on August 81. The
convention will only go through
the formaiity of nominating Colonel
Walker. =.
This has been one of the most in
teresting congressional races in the
history of the Eleventh district; in
fact it is the. only contest Of any con-
sequence that the district has ever
witnessed; as the two previous con
gressmen were nominated term after
term without opposition
Colonel Walker. yesterday issued a
statement IN yaldoste thaAking his
friends all over the district for his
success. 1t is expected that he will
be present in Brunswick when the
convention meets.

Governor Wilson has within the

to his correspondence to which he

LOYAL NlcARAGuAN SOLDIERS
SENT TO DEFEND LEON
ARE ALL KILLED,
SITUATION IS VERY CRITICAL
Foreign Women and Children Sleep
ing Aboard Two United States War
ships in Harbor One of the Victims
Mississppian.

Washington Aug. 22.-Two Ameri-
cans are reported to have been de-
liberately murdered in the massacre
of Nicaraguan troops by the rebels at
Leon on August 10. One was said
to be Harvey Dodd of Kosiousko,
Miss, the other man named Phillips.
The two men had been wounded
and were seeking refuge in a hospi-
tai according to the report received
today at the state department.
Dodd and Phillips ere said to
have been fighting with the govern
ment troops. After the defeat they
were taken to hospital badly wound
ed, then they were killed in the mas
sacre which followed. No more de-
tails were sent to Washington.
The killing of Dodd and Phillips,
althc Ugh nol entirely a parallel. re-
calls the killing OF Cannon and Groce
by Zelaya S men in 1909, which result
ed in an upheaval that threw the die
tator out of office and sent him to Eu-
rope in exile.
The state department is pressing
for more information.
A delayed despatch from Corinto
says the rebels are taking towns be-
tween Leon and Chinandaga. They
are reported to have confiscated a
large plantation and a distillery con-
tanning $5,000,000 worth of alcohol.
500 Butehered.
The massacre of loyal Nicaraguan
troops sent to defend the town OF
Leon is fully confirmed in a belated
cablegram received today from the
American legation at Managua. The
fighting was even more disastrous to
the government forces than originally
reported. The rebels refused quar-
ter and annihqate d the entire force
Of 500 defenders with the exception
of three or four who escaped by put
ting on rebel uniforms.
Today's early advices to the state
department are that the situation is
critical. Though the American ma
rines and bluejackets are holding
Managua against would-be looters, the
danger is threatening Corinto on the
west coast. Women and children of
foreign families in the town are now
sleeping aboard the two United States
warships there
Repeating his adverse criticism OF
the landing of American marines in
Nicaragua, Senator Bacon today
urged the senate to adopt his resolu
ton for an Investigation Of conditions
in Nicaragua.
THE gravity of the situation may
make necessary investigations at the
other end Of the capitol" he said.
What is to happen if officers of
the government are allowed TO disre-
gard laws"
If the state department said the
Georgian, acts in Mexico as it has in
Nicaragua, we would be sure to have
a war with Mexico.

Skeleton Of Old Timer
Found in Black Hills

Deadwood, March 20-While play.
ing in the gypsum cliffs east of the
McGregor ranch near Spearfish, some
bows uncovered an old skeleton of a
human being and neal by some human
teeth that were in fair state of pres
eryatior. Investigation Of the finding
which was made at the mouth Of an
old cave, leads to the belief that the
skeleton belonged to a man who died
here before the white man was sup
posed to have entered the Hills. Ac-
cording to old records, a party of men
passed through here in 1862, marking
stone which they sank in'the earth
near Lockout mountain.
This stone was found many years
| ago by Louis Thoen a Spearfish res
| ident and was photographed but its
markings are now practically obliter
sted by age. The condition of the
skeleton indicates that it belonged tt
a body that had laid in this spot many
wears and old time residents believe
