The PETITION
WAS PRESENTED
G. c, G. p. ASKS FOR AUTHORITY
TO ISSUE THREE MIL
LIONS IN BONDS.

News was received from Atlanta
yesterday to the effect that the pc
tition of the Georgia Coast and Pied
mont Railroad company, for author
ity to issue $3,000,000 in bonds, was
presented to the Georgia railroad
commission yesterday morning, and,
after hearing arguments on the pc
tition from various people Interested,
the commission took the matter into
consideration and will render their
decision within short time.
There is no doubt whatever as to
the outcome of the petition. In fact
it is merely formality in asking
the commission for authority to issue
the bonds, such action being neces-
sary in order to comply with a state
law on the subject
The promoters of the road are now
making every arrangement to begin
active work on the extension of the
road, and it is their intention to have
a large force at work before the first
OF July.
The local delegation who attended
the hearing in Atlanta yesterday will
return to the city this morning.

Battle Hard Fou ght.

At Federal Front, near ReiIano,
Mexico, May 23.-Yesterday's battle
was renewed at daybreak today After
two weeks of hard marching through
the desert plains of northern Mexico,
General Huerta, commanding about
1900 federal troops. finally forced
General Orozco's army of 5000 insur-
rectos today into battle which may
prove to be the turning point of the
Mexican revolution.
Repairing bridges and constructing
practically new railroad over the
course, which had been taken by the
Tetreating rebels, the government
troops had pushed their way today
exactly ia miles north of Torreon
to a battle-ground, where the rebels
finally appeared willing to engage
them.
At Gaybreak the heavy artillery fire
of the federals was renewed. Five
hours of steady shelling from the for
ty big guns in the government line
had yesterday been slowly disorganiz-
ing the enemy when night interrupt
ed the combat. With vigor, both sides
resumed fighting today. The heavy ar
tillery of the federals, projecting
shells nearly four miles, is counted
upon by the government to drive the
insurrectos out of the west, as was
the case in the last battle at ConeJos
a week ago Sunday,
The battlefield, just outside of Re-
1lano, is a sandy mesa with its ap-
proaches visible for miles. High
grasses form cover for the infan-
try for a short distance, but indica-
tions early today were that if cavalry
charges follow advantages gained by
the artillery they might prove de-
structive. The rebels are well forti-
fed in Rellano.

FLOOD REFUGEE CAMPS
ARE WELL ORGANIZED

New Orleans, May 23.-Conditions,
sanitary and otherwise, of Mississippi
river flood refugee camps at Ather-
ton, Milliken's Bend, Natchez and
Vicksburg are excellent, and splen-
did work has been done by Captain
Hageman of the United States army,
the Red Cross and other relief or
ganizations, according to John NJ.
Parker of this city, who returned to-
day from an eight weeks experience
in the flooded district, and furnished
the Associated Press with a state
ment of the situation in the flooded
district
Mr.. Parker is the owner of 4
large and valuable plantation inun-
dated by the Salem crevasse, causing
q property loss to him of several
thousand dollars. Several herds of
thoroughbred cattle were drowned
on his plantation.
Many planters who lost their all
when the Salem levee broke, said Mr..
Parker, did heroic rescue work with
the certainty of no reward except the
satisfaction of duty we'll and faith
fully done. Men of the highest stand
ing in social, professional and finan-
cial circles time after time risked
their lives to rescue some unfortunate
negro family.

HAVE A LICENSE
TO SELL MILK
HEALTH DEPARTMENT TO MAKE
EFFORT FOR PURE MILK
IN THIS CITY.

In an effort to give the people of
brunswick pure milk, the health de-
partment Of the city, unoer the direc-
tlon of City Physician Mann. has
started out to improve the milk SER
vice of the city and hereafter all the
dairies doing business in the city
will have to first procure a license
from the city.
The new rule has not as yet been
put into effect, but the licenses are
ii2w being printed and will be deliv-
cred to the city within a few days,
aiNS shortly notice will be issued that
every person in the city engaged in
selling milk must first secure a Ii
cense.
The new health officer is of the
opinion that much of the sickness Nl
Brunswick, especially during sum-
-mer months, is due to impure milk
and he is going to make every effort
to prevent the sale of such milk in
the future. When a person secures
a license he will be required to state
the number of cows on hand, amount
of milk delivered daily, etc The is
suing of license is only the first step
that the health department is to make
in its crusade for pure milk

Rebels Holding Ground.

At Rebel Front, Rellano, May 23.-
AT I a. m. today the rebels were hold
ing their own, but the artillery fire
was growing heavier every minute.
General J. J. Campos, known as
"Chinese Campos," has captured two
cannon and one machine gun from
the federal column on the left. The
advantage appears to be with the
rebels in that. they are holding firm
their positions.
At 7.30 a. m. General Huerta, the
federal chief, attempted flank move

but was unsuccessful. General Oroz-

UnfaVorabIe Conditions Make it In

Washington, May 23-Four hundred
miles south of the American border,
near Rellano, along the Mexican Cen
trail, fierce battle is in progress to-
day between the rebel forces in north
~ eXico under General Pasqual Orozco
and he Mexican federals commanded
by General Huerta. the battle may
prove to be the turning point of the

Late yesterday the federals attack

almost incessant 1t is estimated that
$500 troops are engaged on each side
and already scores of dead and in
jured dot the high mesa desert bat

The advantage early today appear
ed to be with the rebels, in that they
held their strongly fortified positions
in front of Rellano, repelling the re-
peated federal charges of the federal
cavalry and infantry. The govern
ment has the most artillery If the
rebels are dislodged it will be be
cause of the superior commanding of
the federal force, which alone, in the
last two weeks, has been gradually
forcing the rebels a distance of ia
miles north and away from Torreon,
the railway gateway of north central
Mexico.
To.reOn originally was the objective
point of the revolutionists in this
campaign. The scarcity of food and
water, the burning heat and the stiff
ling atmosphere that spreads over the
sandy tableland where the battle to-
day RACES make it seem impossible for
either side to keep it's whole force

Washington, May 23-The senate

senate next Tuesday. 1t will be a
sweeping arraignment of the eondi-
tions under which the Titanic swept
along the iceberg area to her DOOM
1t is understood the report will Sc
verely criticise Captain Smith of the
Titanic, as mainly responsible for
the disaster, because of failure to heed
the warnings of other vessels; the
British board of trade for lax inspec-
ton; j. Bruce Ismay, who was
passenger, and will point to the lack
OF discipline in the time of danger.
Captain Lord of the Californian, will
figure in the responsibility because of
failure to take necessary steps when
near the Titanic, whose rocket sig
mails of distress were seen aboard the
Californian. Congress will be asked
to reward Captain Rostron of the res

Washington, May 23.-Because of
reports of danger to American lives

at Philadelphia and proceed immedi-
ately to the United States naval sta

Apparently, the government has been
unable to estimate the strength or
the purpose of the insurrection. The
cuban military authorities admit the
situation is serious, but think they
can control it. 1t is reliably reported
to the state department that many
people consider the movement de-
signed to provoke intervention
No explanation was volunteered at
the state department as to the in
tervention report, but it has been
matter of discussion for some time
that the Cuban government itself
might be tempted to encourage a re-
