and re-established their lines. But in
the execution of the movement was
lost the valuable life Of Gen. Hill, who
had seen his first srvice at the famous
iield of Manassas as colonel Of tho
18th Virginia regiment in Gen. John
stons army had passed rapidly
through all the gradations Of rank to
lieutenant general, and had become a
constant and distinguished part in the
four years defense of the Confederate
capitol. Desiring to obtain a near
view of portion of the enemy's line,
he had ridden forward, accompanied
by single orderly, when he unexpect-
edly came upon a party of six Federal
soldiers concealed in a ravine. Gen.
Hill wore only the stars of a colonel
on rough citizens coat. He advanced
upon the party and commanded them
to surrender; they consented; but he
neglected to disarm them, and reas-
sured that there was no body OF troops
in the vicinity, they fired treacherous
volley and shot him through the
heart
The line which Gen. Lee had now
closed around Petersburg was not in
tended for q renewal Of battle, which
was now hopeless, but merely to gain
time for the execution Of another pur-
pose. little while after the fall of
Fort Gregg, ominous columns of smoke
arose from numbcrlcss depots and
warehouses OF Petersburg. 1t was
eleven o'clock in the morning when
Gen. Ice wrote hasty telegram to
the War Department, advising that the
authorities of Richmond should have
everything in readiness to evacuate
the capital at eight o'clock the coming
night, unless before that time despatch
cs should be received from him to the
contrary effect"

THE DEFENSE OF FORT GREGG

Had there been furthen evidence
wanting that the soldiers Of the South
We're the equais OF those OF any age
or country, their conduct in the clos
ing secnes of the long drawn-out strug-
gle would have furnished it in lavish
volume. A time when for many months
every private In the ranks had felt
that the struggle was but forlorn
hope. In the disorder on the break
ing OF our lines at Petersburg on the
End of April, 1866, members Of num-
Der of different commands joined the
little garrison nj Fort Gregg on our
line. There wero Wirginians, Louisi-
anians, Mississippians, North Caro-
linians and South Carolinians. Two of

Except the little garrison, these
We're men on tile outposts, picl1ets and
sharDshooters, unable to reach their
regiments, joined comrades of other
command to make this desperate effort
to check the eXhultant foe. A writer
Of the period describes it this way:
Having run over Fort Alexander, the
enemy moved on Fort Gregg with
cheers. Confidently, in beautiful lines
and in all the majesty of overwhelm-
ing numbers, did the Federal troops
advance upon the works. They had
got within fifty yards Of it, and not
the flash OF a single rife had yet de-
fled them. The painful thought passed
through the ranks Of their comrades,
who watched in the distance, that the
garrison was about to surrender. But
instead Of white flag there was q
white puff Of smoke, and artillery and
infantry simultaneously opened on the
confident assailants, who staggering
and reeling under the death-dealing
yolley, at last gave way, and retreated
in masses under cover. A loud and
wild cheer rang out from the Confed-
crate lines, and was answered in ex-
cellent tones by the heroic little gar
rison in Fort Gregg. But reinforce
ments were Fastening from the lines
of the enemy. There was none to send
to the help Of the garrison; every Con
federate soldier was needed at his
post, and no reserves were at hand
AS the enemy again came up in bat
tie array, the troops moved forward
in serred ranks, and soon the fort was
canopied in smoke. 1t seemed by mu-
tual consent that the conflict ceased

on other parts of the line, while both
sides stood silent and anxious spec
tators. of the struggle at the fort. AS
the smoke lifts 1t is seen that the fed
erals have reached the ditch. Those
in the distance could descry lines of
blue uniforms swarming up the sides
of the works, and as the foremost
reached the top, they reeled and fell
upon their comrades below. Once,
twice and thrice they reached the top,
only to ,be repulsed; and yet they
persevered while the guns in the en-
brasures continued to fire in rapid Sue
cession. presently the sound Of ar
tillery ceased and the federals mount
ed the work and poured rapid fire
On the defenders within. Many of the
garrison, unwilling to surrender, used
their bayonets and clubbed their guns
in an unequal struggle.
But such resistance could be Of
short duration and oson lour huzzars

the fort there were not more than
thirty survivors; and to the illumined
story OF the Army Of Northern Vir-
ginia, Fort Gregg gave fitting con-
clusion, an ornament Of glory that
we'll clasped the record of its deeds.
AS soon as tho fort was captured,
cannonading and sharpshooting were
renewed on othcr parts Of the line. In
q moment heavy bodies Of cavalry,
emerging from the cnemy's former
lines, poured rapidly over the cap
tured works, and galloped in squad
rons toward the AlppomattoX, which
was some four or five miles distant.
Their track coud be traced by the
heavy columns of black smoke that
rose from the various farmhouses on
their route which had been set on fire.
The infantry, which had captured the
fort, formed line fronting the Con-
federatc night flank, and appeared as if
they intended marching by the rear
into Petersburg. New dispositions
were now made along the Confederate
line, he protracted resistance ogcrcd
by Fort Gregg enabled Gen. Lee to es-
tablish what force remained to him in
the manner host availing for the de-
fense Of Petersburg. Longstreet, ac-
icompanied by small brigade of Fields
division, had arrived from the north
|side of the James in time to check the
advance OF the enemy long enough to
enable fresh troops to hurry up in his
rear, and to form a fresh line in front
Of Petersburg.

ABRAMS NAMED FOR
 CUSTOMS DEPUTY IN
 CHARGE AT SEWARD

J. L. Abrams has been appointed Deputy Collector in charge of the re- gently created Customs office at Sew ard, according to statement made by Collector of Customs J. c. Mcbride. He will leave Juneau about the mid dle of this month for Seward to pre- pare to open up the office on January first. '&I
 The creation of Seward as a port of entrty was announced several weeks ago. This step was recommended sev- eral months ago by Collector Mcbride, to take care of the increased business resulting from diversion of Interior traffic from the Yukon River routes to the Alaska Railroad and also by in- creased activities in the Alaska Pen insula oil districts.
 MT. Abrams is an old-timer in the Alaska Customs Service, being ap, pointed IT years ago. He has been stationed at number of points, in cluding Forty Mile, Eagle, Ketchikan Sulzer, where he was deupty 1n charge, and in the general office.

BOOTLECCERS' BAIL
 NINE MILLION DOLLARS
 IN SAN FRANCISCO

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 11.-Nine million dollars in bai1-bond money has been deposited in the Federal Court in the past eleven months to secure release of some 4,000 alleged boot leggers, Federal Prohibition Agent Samuel F. Rutter revealed in statis- tics made public today. At present more than S4000,00 is on deposit, as surfing the liberty of persons whose cases have not come to trial. Rutter estimates that to permit this enor- nous amount of idle capital the boot tagging "profession" must have cap ital of s35,0OO,0O0 or more. Bail in each case amounts from $1,OO0 to $5,000.

HoMEsTEADERs HASTEN TO
 TAKE UP TEN THOUSAND
 ACRES OF FARM LANDS

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 11.-Resem- bling the Gold Rush Days of '49," ap- proximately 400 persons jostled and milled together recently about the of fees of the Feedral Land Receiver in an effort to file homestead claims on 10000 acres of choice Southern Cali fornia farming land which have been within the confines of the famous Irvine ranch. near Santa Ana, for more than fifty years.
 Most of those who appeared at the land office sought leave to file on the full 16O-acre quota allowed under the Government Homestead laws How ever, there were others who asked for but forty acre plots. The land on which the files were made was sup posed to have been contained on the original Mexican land grant, but the filers, who are disputing the claim, stated the owners of the ranch in- cluded within it's boundaries 10000 acres of land not part of the orig inal plot.

STEADY GROWTH ! OF EXPORTS IS ! SHOWN BY LIST


 States during the month exceeded those of November, 1921, by $1,767,- sS1, according to the monthly state ment of commerce just issued by John c. Mcbride, Collector of Gus toms for the Territory. The total value of last months exports as shown by the statement is $5,2OS,1s4, of which $1,222,551 was gold and silver shipments.
 The gain was made despite de- crease of $55,00O for the month in the value of shipments of canned salmon. Nearly every item on the list with the exception of few fisheries products and gypsum showed some advance with gold and silver combined leading in amount and percentage, copper in second lplace in amount, and herring ship ments second in percentage of gain with almost 100 per cent gain over November of last year.
 Salmon Loss PuxxIing The decrease in the value of ship ments of canned salmon is puzzling to the customs officials. The dec larations made by the shippers show the value of this product shipped south during the month to have been s1, ,6s1,s3s. Last year November ship ments of the same product were valued at s1,es7,66S. This repre- sented 1O,s6o,36s pounds of sal mon. This November's shipments ex- ceeded the former in quantity by more than one and one-half million pounds, totaling 13,399,2SS pounds. It is believed that the present mar ket price of all grades of Alaska salmon is in excess of that at the same time last year, which, if true, should result in last months sal mon exports being materially more value than those of the same month
 in 1921. Other Features Shown 
 Herring increased in value from
 s249,49O last to $43O,502 this No yember. Shell fish showed slight
 gain. Growth in the by-products in
 dustry is indicated by substantial
 increases in the value of fertilizer
 and oils shipped for the month. The
 latter was especially noticeable, in
 creasing in quantity from 25,4S8 to ii335 800 gallons, and in value from
 s5,965 to s124,91O. Fertilizers in-
 creased from $4,496 to $39,57s. Furs
 increased $35,0O0, lumber s25,OOo.
 A decline in the gypsum market IS
 indicated by small fall in the value of last months shipments,
 while the quantity of the shipments
 was unchanged. i Shipments of copper ore increased
 in quantity from 4,4S1,50 tons to
 8,959,037 pounds and in value from
 se24,s7s to $1,253,259, Silver and
 gold increased from s428,749 to ST. I 1222,551.
