No G. o. p. in Louisiana.

Baton Rouge, La, May 16.-As a
party, the republican party no longer
exists in Louisiana today. It's fran
chise was lost when the official re-
turns OF the April election were read
in the joint session of the general
assembly today and the result form
ally promulgated. Only 1851 votes
were cast for the republican candi-
dates and as this is less than the
10 per cent required by state law, the
organization no longer exists and the
only way that the names of the nom
inees can be placed on the ticket IN
the future is by petition, as has been
the case with Independent candidates.
The forfeit of the franchise also pre-
vents the party from availing itself
of the provisions of the state primary
law

Atlanta, May 16.-After having
been out of the Atlanta Georgian

pressmen of that paper returned to
work at 9 o'clock this morning, every
member of the force resuming his
former place. The Georgian has not

sistants.
The Atlanta pressmens union met
Yesterday morning and a motion was
made to rescind the action of last

amended so as to notify President
Berry that unless the New York ana
Los Angeles pressmen of the Hearst

men in New York last night refused
to go out, and the Atlanta pressmen

TITANIC RAFT FOUND
WITH DEAD BODIES

New York, May 16-That some pas
sengers of the Titanic starved to
death in open boats after escaping
from the sinking vessel was made
terribly probable with the arrival
here today of the White Star liner
Oceanic from Southampton. In a
collapsible life raft which the Oce-
anic sighted and picked up on last
Monday were found three bodies, all
i'll such condition that they were COM
mitted to the sea after burial serv-
ices.
The bodies were those of men, one
of them chained by the leg to a
thwart in one end of the boat. The
two others were huddled in the other
end. In their mouths were small
pieces of cork, which it is believed
they chewed in their delirium to ease
the pain of hunger.

IberviIIe Parish Flooded,

Plaquemine, La, May 16.-Eighty
per cent of the area of Iberville par
ish S now flooded by the water from
the crevasses at Torras and in the
Atchafalaya river just below Mel
vile. Of the 100000 acres compris-
ing the parish, about 40 per cent is
open farm land. There are thirty
sugar refineries in the parish, several
of chem being among the largest in
the state, with a capacity of 1000
tons a day.
The extensive flooding of farm land
and the closing down of the refner-
les and many other industries will
throw approximately $4,000 men out
of employment. The sugar refiner-
les not only consume the cane raised
in Iberville, but also large quanti-
ties shipped in from other parishes
Last year 3,599 cars were received
The parish has population of 10000,
one third of which lives in and near
Plaquemine.

GEORGIA COAST AND PIEDMONT
PREPARING TO BEGIN
ACTIVE WORK.
Chief Engineer Cranberry, Accompa-
MED by County Commissioner
Townsend, Went over Route Yes
terday-Oid 0arien Road is To Be
Used.

That the Georgia Coast and Pied
mont railroad is preparing to begin
active work on its Brunswick extern
sion Immediately, is best evidenced
by the fact that the matters looking
to the right of-way from the Alta
maha river to Brunswick are now
being gotten into shape, preparatory
to the active work.
Yesterday Chief Engineer Granber-
ry, who is to be stationed in Bruins
wick permanently. accompanied by
Capt. W. R. Townsend of the county
commissioners, made trip over the
proposed right-of-way, for the pur-
pose Of looking into various details.
They spent most of the day between
the city and Dents rice plantation.
AS has been previously stated, it
is planned to use the old Darien
road, Crt many years ago for a rail-
road between Brunswick and Darien.
This road is now in unusuaI:y good
condition and it is believed that the
line can be constructed cheaper on
II tnan 10 secure an entirely new
route. The road is direct, there not
being curve or turn in it from
Brunswick to the rice fields. 1t is
understood the most of the land
owners have already signified their
intention to donate the right way
and it is believed that it will be
secured with but little difficulty.
1t is also stated that the owners
of the road are now preparing to
begin active work on the trestle
across the Altamaha river, connect
ing Glynn and Mcintosh counties.
Plans for the bridge were drawn
and Submitted to the government
some time ago and have been accept
ed
1t is the intention of the promoters
to get the line into Brunswick at the
earliest possible time and just as soon
as I'll the preliminary arrangements
are completed active work will be-
gin.

COAST LINE CASE
INTERESTING One
RESULT WILL DECIDE WHETHER
OR NOT STATE HAS LAW TO
COVER CORPORATIONS.

The beginning of the end of the
Atlantic Coast Line case, so far as
the state railroad commission is
concerned, was signaled Wednesday
when Judge J. K Hines, special at
torney of the commission, filed with
it his written report as to the law
in the matter The commission will
now proceed with the matter and
will probably formulate its decision
pretty definitely at its next meet
ing.
The Atlantic Coast Line case
brings into question that part of the
Georgia laws which require that pub
tic service corporations shall apply to
the railroad commission for authority
before they issue bonds and stock
According to the evidence, tte At
lantic Coast Line issued some $780,
100000 worth of bonds, about eigh-
teen months ago, without this per-
mission from the Georgia railroad
board. Months later the commission
learned of the bond issue and called
the Coast Line to task The Coast
Line attorneys answered that their
company had not violated any Geor-
gia law because the Georgia law on
this point could not possibly be con-
strued as applying to a foreign (Vir-
ginia) corporation doing an inter
state business.
1t is on this point, raised by the
as to whether or not the
Georgia law does apply in this case,
that Judge Hines has now compiled
the laws and the commission will
soon take a stand one way CT the
other.
If the commission decides that the
Georgia law has been violated. it
will refer the whole matter to the
governor, in order that proceedings
may be begun in the courts.

HOTEL CASE MAY
YET Be SETTLED
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS TO THE
CREDITORS BY THE LEsSEES
OF HOsTELRY.
No Action Was Taken,in Bankruptcy
Court Yesterday as Creditors Will
Be Given Time to Consider Propo-
sition of American Resort Co,

When the Oglethorpe hotel case
was called before Referee Max Isaac
IN the bankruptcy court yesterday
morning, Attorney R. D. Meader, at
torney for the American Resort fiotel
company, the lessees, who have been
placed in bankruptcy, offered a prop
ositlon which may be accepted by
the local creditors and which may
mean that the case is to be settled.
The attorney stated that it was
the intention of the company to pay
out of the money on hand, together
with that held under garnishment, all
of the local creditors, together with
the amount due the laborers. 1t was
shown that quite a sum is now tied
up by the garnishment suits and that
other funds are on hand, and with
this considerable of the Indebtedness
can be paid
The matter was taken under con-
sideration and will be submitted to
the local creditors, and it is believed
that the proposition will be accepted.
In the event it is the holdings of the
American Resort Hotel company will
not be brought into the case, but in
the event it is refused the bankruptcy
court will proceed
1t is understood that the company
now has on hand almost a sufficient
sum of money to pay all the labor
ers and a large part of the local in
debtedness of the hostelry and if the
proper showing is made it is prob
able that the concern will be per-
mitted to continue in charge of the
hotel until the case is finally set
tied.
In the meantime the hotel will
continue under the management of
the receiver and Major Huger will
be the active manager.

gia shooter has ever been the victor
IN the Southern Handicap, and the
