OCEAN LINER TORPEDOED.
Sunk Near Where Lustania Went
Down and Several Persons Lost.

Last week German submarine sunk
the British liner, Arabic. The vesse
carried 423 passengers and something
over fifty were lost, among the mum.
ber being two Americans.
The vessel was struck about one hun
dred feet from the stern and sank IN
eight minutes. Life boats were
launched that saved all but the num-
ber mentioned.
The Arabic noticed that another ves-
sci, the Dunsley, in distress and the cap
tain, the Arabic was on the way to assist
in saving the people of the stricken YES
sci when the submarine launched tor
pedo with deadly effect.
In the face of conditions arising from
the Lusitania the feeling is strong that
this act of the Germans may result in
the severance of diplomatic relations
between this country and Germany, but
no one really expects declaration of
war to follow.

BONDS CONTRACTED,
Contract Will Be Signed Shortly for
the Entire Issue of 100000.

Within the past few days matter.
have been assuming a shape that justi
fies the general statement that the
$500, 900 of road bonds for this county
are practically sold.
The commissioners have been put in
touch with an offer of par for the en-
tire issue. General J. R. Mitchell took
the matter up with L. r. Preston, pres
ident of the Hamilton National Bank,
Chattanooga, and Mr.. Preston has
authorized Mr.. Mitchell to enter into
an agreement for HIM with our COM
missioners for the entire issue.
While the contract has not yet been
| signed, all the commissioners have the
entire willingness to sign the contract
for the delivery of the bonds as soon
as they can be printed. 1t seems prob
able that the entire $200s000 will not
be paid for the bonds in lump, but not
less than SIS, 600 will be available
each month to meet the pay roll, and
more If needed. 1t is also understood
that whatever accrued interest there
may be at time of the delivery of any
block of bonds, that interest will be
rebated to the county so that the actual
sale will be bona fidely par for every
dollar of bonds sold. 1t will devolve
on the county to pay for the printing
OF the bonds, but that in no way vio-
lates the provisions of the act that
specifies tn they must be sold for not
less than p.r.
Very few !. orsons think the pay roll
is liable to le,ch as much as lS5, 900
month and tor that reason is every
way satisr tory. 1t has become
known here thot the First National
Bank, of whic. >.ie of the commission
ers, Mr.. J. y Dorton, is president, |
does not wish 10 handle the funds in
the large lump of $780, 900, but it is
probable that sufficient amount to
safely meet any pay roll will be depos-
tied with the bank here and in that
way the business will largely be done
through this bank.
While the contract has not yet been
signed, there is every probability that
it will be finally closed today or to-
morrow by all Of the commissioners
affiixng their signatures to contract
that ls mainly along the lines here in

WAR SITUATION.
Germans Meet With Naval Defeat anc
ItaIy Has Declared War on
Turkey

A recent naval battle in the gulf of
Riga between the Germans and Rus
SLAMS resulted in loss of one battle
ship, three cruisers and several tor
pedo boats. The loss to the Russians
is not fully known and the details of
the battle are not fully known. The
Russians also claim to have sunk two
barges loaded with German soldiers.
Italy has declared war on Turkey
and the pressure against the Darda-
nelles is expected to be much increased
at an early date.
The Germans continue to drive the
Russians back IN Poland, but it is
thought the German naval defeat will
act favorably for the Russians and lead
them to abandon all thought of push
ing on to Petrograd, IN case that has
been their aim.
Italy claims the gain of considerable
more territory from Austria Hungary.
The fighting in France and Belgium
does not show much change.

DESTRUCTIVE STORM.
Causes Many Millions Of Dollars Dam
age and Over 200 Lives Are
Lost.

Last week the West India tropical
storm, that had been sweeping over the
Atlantic and Gulf for several days,
broke on the coast of Texas and many
ocean craft were sunk or seriously
damaged.
The great sea wall, that was erected
by Galveston just following the dread
full storm that took toll of over one
thousand lives, IN 1900 broke and
1000 feet OF it was swept away. That
rent IN the wall allowed the raging
waves to rush IN and demoish 500
houses. About IS people were drowned
and the property damage has been es-
timated at SIS. 000, 200.
Other Texas towns suffered severely
and the total dead is little over 200
with property loss estimated at not
less than thirty millions.
AS result of the storm rain fell
here for four days and the wind that
came as the last remnant of the storm
blew down much corn and other crops
over the southern part of this state and
some damage was done IN this county.
