ARE UNDER BAYONET rule
GOVERNMENT MEETS GENERAL
STRIKE ORDER BY DEcLAR-
ING MARTIAL LAW.
Feeling Is Very Bitter Throughout the
Country-NaiiVes Are
Feared.

Cape Town, Union of South Africa
A general strike throughout South At
RIGA was proclaimed by the Trades
Federation, and the Rand miners, by
two-thirds majority, voted to join
in the movement. Governmental retail
iation was swift in the form of the
proclamation of martial law.
This was the only step the authorl-
ties believed adequate to meet the sit
uation, for the strike of the miners
means not only the turning loose of
the most turbulent spirits in the Rand
but raises the whole question OF the
position of the native workers. II the
miners actually obey the strike order,
the government will Immediately take
steps to send the natives, under es-
cort back to their kraals
This means that about two hundred
thousand natives must be marched
back by road to their homes at enor
nous cost. 1t will be most difficult,
after the end of the strike, to recruit
them again. In brief, such step
would mean disaster for the Rand for
many years.
Although official reports from the
city of Johannesburg show improve
ment in the train service, reports from
other districts are less encouraging.
In Natal the situation is one of great
tension, and 1t is feared that the 10y
atty of the trainmen will not stand the
strain much longer An instance of
the mems temper is shown by the ac-
ton of an engine driver who quit his
train on the Veldt and left the passen-
gers stranded.
Practically no information is at hand
as to conditions in the Orange Free
States, but improvement there is not
considered probable.

NOTED SOUTHERN
JOURNALIST DEAD
COLONEL PENoLEToN FORMER
LY STATE EXECUTIVE CON-
MITTEE CHAIRMAN, ClES
WELL KNOWN IN THE SOUTH
Leader of Georgia Delegation to Last
Democratic National Convention
in Baltimore.

Macon, Ga.-Charles Rittenhouse
Pendleton, for sixteen years editor and
part owner of the Macon Telegraph,
died after an illness of five weeks.
His condition did not become critical
until a week ago when it was discov-
cred that he had Bright's disease. He
was 63 years of age.
Colonel Pendleton, as he was gener-
ally called came to Macon from Val
dosta, where he edited a paper for
many years. He served one term In
the legislature from Lowndes county,
but ever afterwards avoided holding
political office, though he was leader
in the Democratic party in Georgia.
Colonel Pendleton was sent to the
Democratic National convention as a
delegate from Georgia, the last one
being the Baltimore convention, which
he attended as chairman of the Geor-
gia delegation, instructed for Oscar
Underwood. He was a member OF
number of state conventions, and four
years ago was chairman of the state
Democratic executive committee.
In politics Colonel Pendleton gener-
ally was classed with the conserva-
tives, although he never failed to sup
port the nominee of his party, heartily
and enthusiastically.
Mr.. Pendleton was born III Efhng-
ham county, Georgia, June rs, 1850, the
fifth child of Philip c. Pendleton. His
mothers maiden name was Catherine
Tebeau of the family which gave Te-
beauville its name.
Immediately upon his fathers death
Mr.. Pendleton took charge of the Val
dosta Times for the family, heavy re-
sponsibility for so young man for
there were several to support with the
income from this source. He made
the Valdosta Times one of the most
influential papers in south and south
west Georgia and at one time enjoyed
the county printing of several counties.
In 1879 he married Sallie Patterson
Peoples of Valdosta, who survives
him.
Among the kilograms received by the
family of the illustrious editor were
those from Gov John M. Slaton, ex-
Gov. Joseph M. Brown, Col. w. S.
West of Valdosta, Clark Howell OF
Atlanta; Labor Commissioner II. M.
Stanley and A. H. Ulm, the governors
private secretary.

HUERTA DEFAULTS ON DEBT
Dictator Announces No Interest Will
Be Paid on Debts.

Mexico City.-After a meeteing of
the cabinet, which lasted all night, the
Mexican foreign minister, Querido Me-
heno, announced that the Mexican gov
eminent will default in the payment
of all interest on the bonds of the
internal and external debts, which now
remains unpaid or which falls due with
in the next six months. A heavy pay
ment of interest on the foreign debt
becomes due in April.
1t has been the practice of the gov
eminent to make weekly remittances
to New York, London and Paris to ap-
ply on its interest obligations, in or
der that when the interest payment
periods arrived the money would be
in hand. These weekly remittances
now have been suspended the explana-
ton being that the government re-
quires all available funds for pacifi.
cation purposes

.IOS LIVES SAVED
FROM THE OCEAN
RESCUE SHIPS REACH WRECKED
STEAMER coBEoUIo AND
TAKE OFF PASSENGERS.
WAVES BROKE OVER SHIP
Rescue One of Most Notable Ever Ac-
corplished on the Atlantic
Coast.

Yarmouth, N. S.-Snatched from
what seemed almost certain death, the
los passengers and crew of the Royal
Mail Packet Cobequid are safe in Var
mouth harbor.
Wireless appeals for assistance,
which she had first made thirty-siX
hours before, were answered as the
doomed steamer was being racked to
pieces on Trinity Rock, six miles off
Port Maitland. The rescue will go
down in shipping annals as one OF the
most notable ever accomplished on the
Atlantic coast.
The Cobequid had begun to break
up under the cannoning of the ter
rife seas that had been merciless from
the time the vessel struck. Quantities
of cargo covered the waters as the
lifeboats ranged alongside. The coas-
tai steamers Westport and John l..
Cam were first to get their small
boats into the water and they were
followed soon by boats of the govern
ment steamer Lansdowne and the
steamer Rappahannock. AS the work
of rescue progressed the seas subsid-
ed and no mishap marred the triumph
over the waves.
Captain McKinnon of the Westport
found the liner on Trinity lodge in
the afternoon. At the time there was
a high wind and rough sea. He took
off in three lifeboat loads seventy-two
persons, including all passengers, the
purser, several deck officers and part
of the crew.
The Westport stood by until the
John L. Cam came up. The latter
took off twenty-four men as the West
port was leaving for Yarmouth.
The 108 persons on the Cobequid in
cluded twelve first cabin passengers
and an equal number in the second
class. Mrs w. c. Zoller and her child
were the first to go over the side.
Then followed Misses Marguerite and
Dorothy James, daughters of the late
r. H. James, mayor Of ST. Georges,
Bermuda, and two sisters of charity.

The earthquakes continue necessarily
