Doubtful Of Border Service.
On1cers and men at Camp ordway
now are becoming very pessimistic
over the outlook for border service. The
railroad situation this morning left
much doubt in the minds of many Of
the men in camp as to whether they
would join the other District troops on
the border. There is a general feeling
now in camp that the District troops
will continue their training here until
after the elections, when they will be
sent back to their home station.
The troops went to the parade ground
this morning to drill In their heavy
sweaters, the heavy rain and wind yes
terday having left very chilly
atmosphere at the camp. A heavy
wind continued to blow over the camp
all morning, beating the flies over the
tents and making them sound like so
many motor boats.
The wind and rain yesterday sent
many tents down and ripped the front
and side out of the large store tent. At
the headquarters offices the wind got
under the tent flies, which serve as
front porches" for the officers, and
laid them down. 1t also tore down the
temporary garage constructed for the
officers cars, but did no lamage to the
cars.

ATLANTA STILL TRYING
To SEPARATE THE RACES

ATLANTA, Ca, July 27.-Can the
city CT Atlanta prevent white resi-.
dence sections from being overrun
with negroes?
Again this question is before the
courts.
Already it has been variously decid-
ed in the cases of Baltimore, Louis
Vile, Birmingham and other southern
cities.
Already it has been decided once i'll
the case of Atlanta.
Now it's to be decided again.
When Atlanta's first segregation or
dinance was held by the state su-
preme court to be unconstitutional
and null and void, the city council
passed a second ordinance prepared ny
the city attorney in conformity with
the supreme courts decision.
Now the test has come. A negro liv-
ing on Myrtle street, highclass north
side residential thoroughfare, has been
ordered by the police to move. Re.
fusing, he was arraigned before the
recorder and given ten days to move.
Again refusing, the police have been
blocked by an order of court restrain
ing all interference with the negro
until the courts have passed upon the
constitutionality and validity of the
city's second ordinance.
The negro made one concession, and
only one. He nailed up the front door
Of his house fronting Myrtle street, and
used the back door facing another
street He claims this brings him
within the ordinance, since he has plac-
ed his number plate over the back
door and published the back door adj

REGENT CROP BULLETIN

A report from Washington on the

JAPAN BUILDING
UP NAVY RAPIDLY

TOXIC, July 27.-It is reported that
guns of 15-inch calibre may be mount
ed on a superdreadnaugh which has
been ordered by the navy department,
and will be laid down in the japanese
naval yard at Kure. This ship was
authorized at the last session of the
liet, and she viii be the largest battle
ship in the Japanese navy. She will
be called the Nagato after one of the
provinces in southern Japan.
Although official figures have not
been announced, it is said the war
ship will have a displacement of 3d.
600 tons and speed of "a knots. The
displacement exceeds by 1,4OO tons
that of the dreadnaught Yamashiro.
which was launched at Yokosuka last
November. The Yamashiro is about
the same size as the United States SUI
per-dreadnaught Pennsylvania.
If the announced figures prove ex-
act, the Nagato will be bigger than the
celebrated Queen Elizabeth of the
British navy, more speedy than the
Yamashiro by two knots and faster
than the Pennsylvania by three knots,
although she could be outdistanced by
tie Queen Elizabeth. A feature of the
proposed ship will be improved equip
ment for defense against torpedoes.
The question of main armament
seems not yet decided 1t is understood
that the navy favors 15-inch guns, but
guns of this size have never been made

would have to be imported from Eng

turn them out during the war.
The department has likewise ar.
ranged for the construction of two Sec
ond class cruisers, each of $500 tons,
to be called Tenryu and Tatsuta. One
will be laid down at Yokosuka, and
the other at Saseho. A large-type de-
stroyer of LOO tons will he built at
Maizuru.
The latest addition to the japanese
navy is new and powerful submarine
boat which was built in France and
which recently arrived at the Kura
avail station. Submerged, the boat can
reach speed of over eighteen knots.
Her displacement is 900 tons, and she
is the largest submarine in the Japan.
