WILL SEND WARSRIPS.

Washington, June 5.-After a con-
ference between President Taft and
Secretary Knox at the white mouse
today it was announced that the gov
ernment would Immediately dispatch
four American battleships to Cuban
waters.
The ships will be selected by the
navy department at once. They prob
ably will be ordered to Guantanamo,
where American marines were landed
today, but their field Of operations
will rot be confined to that port.
President Tafts decision to dis
patch the squadron to Cuban waters
was reached because of the need Of
precautionary measures, and not with
any intent to intervene at this time.
Another point brought out in the
conference was the absence of salts
factory telegraphic communication
with American vessels now near the
island of Cuba. The high power wire
less apI aratus on the battleships will
make such communication with naval
stations in the United States much
quicker.

planning mill and a larger stock add
ed to the store on Newcastle street.
The new purchasers have not vel
announced whether or not the New
castle street business will be con
tlnued or whether it will be consoli-
dated with the present business Of
the firm on Bay street. The firm
has large and commodious quarters
at their Bay street store. and it is
likely that the large stock of build

ROOSEVELT WINS
SOUTH DAKOTA
WHILE GOVERNOR WILSON WILL
GET DEMOCRATIC VOTES
OF THE STATE.

Sioux Falls, s. D., June 5.-Scat-
tered returns from yesterdays state
primary election show that Roosevelt
has a good lead over LaFollette and
Taft, but returns are too scattered to
make reliable estimate on Roose
velt's plurality
Returns indicate that Wilson has
captured the ten delegates to the
national democratic convention by a
vote Of to l, over Clark
With the principal local interest
in yesterdays primary election n
South Dakota centered in the race
for governor, precinct judges gave
their first attention to the count for
that office with the. result that less
than 800 out of the 1900 precincts
had reported early today on the
presidential preference.
These returns, however, indicated
that former President Roosevelt will
have the whole of the South Dakota
delegation to the Chicago convention,
and Governor Woodrow Wilson has a
good, lead over Champ Clark for the
dem )cratic delegation.
That Colonel Roosevelt will have a
plurality of several thousand is ap-
parently assured. President Taft,
apparently, will be third in the re-
publican race, Senator LaFollette hav-
ing polled a substantial vote which
in some counties exceeded that of
Roosevelt.

TWO JURTES OUT
FOR The NIGHT
UNABLE TO REACH A VERDICT
TWENTY-FoUR MEN HAVE A
FULL NIGHT OF 1T.

UGusualy interesting criminal cases
occupied the attention of the Glynn
superior court yesterday, and, as a
result of the days work, two juries
remained out all night with the in
dications that two mistrials would
result, while one jury, after being
out for some little time, brought in
sealed verdict last night.
Murderer Tried.
The first case taken up yesterday
morning was that of Morris Butler,
colored, charged with murder. But
ler, it will be remembered, is the
negro who shot and killed Lucius
Sanders a few months ago in the
yard in the rear of the saloon of
George Ponder on Monk street. The
trouble grew out of. a dice game, which
was participated in by Butler, San
ders and another negro.
Self-defense was the plea entered
by the negro, who claimtd that; he
did not shoot Sanders until after the
dead negro had drawn a pocketknire
and attempted to stab him. The ne
gro is represented by Judge A. d.
Gale, while Solicitor Thomas and AS
sistant Solicitor R. E. Dart repre-
sented the state. The case was Civ
en- to the jury about II o'clock and
during the entire afternoon they en-
deavored to arrive at verdict, but,
up to a late hour last night, had not
been successful
The afternoon session was occupied
in the trial of Eli Watson and his
son, Eugene Watson. They were
charged with misdemeanor, that of
disturbing a school, 1t seems that
only few days ago colored
school commencement was in. prog
ress and it is charged that Watson
and his son broke up the entertain
ment by starting a quarrel with the
principal, threatening to shoot him,
and that the spectators were greatly
frightened and left the building in
terror. No trouble, however, result
ed.
The jury in the case of Eli Watson
went out early in the afternoon, and
appears to be hopelessly divided, the
members spendiig the night out on
the case, while the jury in the case
of Eugene Watson, after remaining
out 'or some time last night, brought
in a sealed verdict.
The court will meet at the usual
hour this morning and continue on
the criminal docket.

HAD BEEN IN CAMP.

Washington, June 5.-The marines
referred to in the Caimanera report
are said here to be portion of those
which had been in camp at the Uni
ted States naval station on Guam
tanamo bay since the arrival there of
the cruiser Prairie a week ago.
In response to repeated ca;ls for
he ana protection from the plant
ers, mostly Americans, between four
hundred and five hundred Of these
marines have been sent TO the south
Of Guantanamo, about fifteen miles
inland from the naval station and
en- 1he Cuban Eastern railroad. The
large Santa Cecilia plantation is in
thar neighborhOod. Some of its build
ings have been burned and some of
the livestock has been stolen by ne
gro marauders nominally attached to
General Estenoz's army of insurrec-
tos. The permanent American naval
station at Guantanamo bay is in the
immediate vicinity and south of Cal
r1anera. Guantanamo City is ten
miles north of there, and there is
railroad connection between the two
places. American property in the vi
cinity of Guantanamo City consists
of mines, sugar plantations, located
in the Guantanamo valley.
Guantanamo valley is a fiat, horse
NshOe-shaped basin, surrounded by
mountains. In the valley are great
ninn y

companies, among them the Santa

EXTENSION OF
ROAD DISCUSSED
SAVANNAH PAPER CONTAINS IN.
TERESTING ARTICLE ON
THE G. c. G. p.

The Sa' annah Press of Tuesday,
I discussing the proposed G. c. & p.
Brunswick extension, says:
The work of extending the Leor-
gia Coast and Piedmont railway from
Darlan to Brunswick is actively un-
der way was stated today by r. M.
Hitch, attorney for the road.
According to adyices received
from Darien, Brunswick and Atlanta,
it appears that the proposed extern
sion of the railroad from Darien to
Brunswick, on the south, and from
Greenville to Lyons or Vidalia on
the north, will be put into effect as
fast as the work of construction can
be completed.
The financial arrangements. it is
stated, have all been made and all
necessary proceedings on the part of
the stockholders aud directors of the
company and of the railroad commits
sion of Georgia have already been in
stituued.
The railroad commission recently
authorized for the proposed extern
sions a bond issue of two million one
hundred and forty thousand dollars,
debantures of two hundred and fifty
thousand dollars and an increase in
issue of stock to the extent of six
hundred and ten thousand
The Securities.
These securities, it is considered
will be sufficient to retire all bonds
and other Indebtedness now out
standing, as well as defrayfng the
cost of the proposed extensions.
In building from Darien to Bruns-
wick, the work being already insti-
tuted, the project calls for quite an
interesting piece Of construction from
an engineering standpoint, the rail-
road crossing the Altamaha river
and delta, and involving the building
of two steel draw bridges and one
fixed, about four miles Of bridges, IN

company have already reached an
understanding with the war depart

Of
CITY 1902 BY
NEW DIRECTORY
SHOWS HANDSOME INCREASE
DURING THE PAST YEAR
OF T@o.
Publication is just Off the Press and
is One of the Best Ever issued in
City-Contains the Names of 4,344
People.

Brunswick's city directory for the
year 1912 is just off the press and
it is one of the neatest and most
comprehensive ever issued. The new
publication is complete in every es-
sential detail, giving, as it does, all
valuable information about the city,
its residents, their address, the vari-
Gus business concerns of the city,
churches, secret societies and organ
izations of all kinds.
This new directory shows that this
city mas a population of 1902, which
shows that the city has either made
a wonderful growth since the 1910
census was taken Or that the wrong
population was given by the govern
ment at that time. In fact both
cares may be true. 1t is known that
the census of 1910 failed to give
Brunswick her full population, and
since that time the city has grown
at a faster rate than at any other
period, therefore the figures estimat-
ed by the directory are very near
correct. 4
The population is arrived at in the
usual way. The directory contains
the names of 4,344s people, and this
number, multiplied by three, as is
always used, gives the city a total Of
1902. In discussing the question OF
population, the compiler, A. D. Young,
says in the directory:
Estimating the population of
city is matter necessarily enjoined
irCr the directory publisher. The
figures which we herewith tender are
arrived at from careful calculation,
and can be taken as practically ac-
curate. The figures represent all per-
sons living in or doing business with
in the city as well as those living
within the adjacent suburbs, which to
all purposes are a part of the city.
This directory cotnainS 4,344 names
of individuals, using the multiple
three times, as is used by many pub
fishers, to allow for childrens and
wives names that are not counted, in
dicates a population of 1902"
1t can be seen that the estimate
is a very conservative one, and, as
has been claimed by the people of
the city all along, Brunswick has up
wards of 1900 inhabitants
The new dirtctory is just off the
press and will be delivered to the
subscribers within few days. 1t
was compiled by Young C Co., Of
Jacksonville, and printed by Glover
Bros, of this city, who deserve much
credit for the magnificent fashion in
which tley printed it.

on Miss Rabbitte, the music teacher.
At the close of the program Mr..

eral Development Company, Phila-
delphia corporation. is preparing for
extensive developments in its large
holdings on Younts Fork, of Boone,
above here. and also on Moores

building the cities of jenkins and
McRoberts, the latter exchanging its
coal holdings on Mounts Fork, con-
sisting of several thousand acres.
for the Mineral Development Com
pany's holdings on Wrights Fork,
near the new city of MeRoberts. This
deal, which has been completed,
gives the Mineral Development Com
pany solid block of $4,000 acres
of coal lands on Younts Fork, while
the Consolidation Coal Company
now owns the whole of Wright's
Fork, a solid block of $4,000 ac-
res.
