Post For North Caro lina: Cloudy. the past 24 hours: Max. 43; Min.24. Vol. XIII RALEIGH. INT. C, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 10, 1903 " ' ' ' ! u xepuDucans" riator Simmons Has Hot Shot Ready - for Them. Marylanders and Tar Heels Stand Well , Together I Br TUOniSJ. PE!1CB Washing-ton, Dec. 9. Special. The :.3publicans in the- Senate had to do a '.;- of side speaking in order to avoid consideration of the resolution for an investigation by congress of the post c. See scandals. They were successful In. preventing even a discussion of the subject, and Senators Simmons and Clay had to defer their speeches which they were prepared to make. How ever, Senator Gorman forced Lodge and the -other Republican leaders to do a good bit of squirming before the res olution was finally sidetracked.. Judg ing from theirj action today it does not B-ppear that the majority will permit a consideration and discussion of the post office scandals until after a vote '.3 taken on the Cuban reciprocity Will. Itf all depends upon whether or hot' they will be able to muster a sufficient number of . speakers to kill time be tween now and the 16th, when a vote v.'ill be taken on that measure Senator Gorman is determined to ." irce the issue for an independent in - estigation of the post office depart ment, and Minority Leader "Williams ll pursue a similar course in the Souse. He has already determined to ring up the Overstreet resolution fain, so as to have the subject con Idered by the House. , Senator Simmons was disappointed oyer the failure of the Senate to con rider the post office resolution today. Senator Gorman had arranged for him to speak first. The speech will be a red hot one when it is turned loose, aiid there will be no mincing of words in the discussion of the public and official records of Postmaster General Payne, Fourth' Assistant Postmaster General Bristow and Perry S. Heath. Senator Simmons thinks that a few subordi nates were selected for prosecution, nd that they have been made the scapegoats of some of the dignitaries "higher up." The call for the meeting of the Dem ocratic national committee, January 12th, in this city, which was issued to lay by Chairman Jones, wi'.l result In i. lively bid among rival cities for the honor of having the national conven tion. Both the time amd place for- hold ing the convention will be agreed upon. Just now there,- seems to be a very pronounced - disposition to have the Democratic Convention meet in ad vance of the Republican national con vention. This is one reason why the Eva Troops Landed at a Point I Where They Can Cross. I the Mountains into the 1 Isthmus Counter f Move in Contem ! plation -$- Washington, Dec. 9. Official advices have been received by the administra tion that 1,100 Colombian solders have been landed at the mouth of the Atrato river, in the gulf of Darien, for the purpose of invading the Isthmus if Panama. The officials here have een aware for several days of such a Biovement by Colombia and the sailing If the vessels from Cartagena with the frvips was promptly reported to the I-ne department. These advices were transmitted to the war department for information of the general staff and here was today renewed activity ' on lie part of officers of the army who iave charge of the plans for sending 1 military expedition to the Isthmus f" Panama should the necessity arise. h-rmy officers believe that the sending American troops to the isthmus is Inevitable, and that sooner or later an I ;dition will have to be fitted out. t was declared this afternoon that so X have preparations gone forward in at a military expedition or over three thousand men could be landed t Colon inside of ten days from the t c eipt of reports showing that they re needed. I A number of opinions have been ad vanced by officers of the general staff s to the character of the military ex pedition which should be sent to the Isthmus in case of trouble with Colom pia. Some officers think that a small poly of cavalry will be needed, while ft hers are of the opinion that only in jfantry with a mouutain battery of ar tillery will be the proper organization tor service in that country. " 1 he officials have clothed their con- Colombia I to 1 cation of the subject of a mili A tlie Postal call for the committee meeting was de ferred until after it was known what the Republicans w-ould do. The tariff is to be rfcade an issue in the next campaign-. It Is the opinion here that the convention will be cailed in May. Chi cago is apparently the favorite city for the . convention. Senator. Gorman knew the late John R. Morris of Goldsboro and held him in high esteem. He spoke tenderly of the memory of the deceased this morn ing when he met Sheriff D. R. Julian of Rowan, who was presented to him by , Senator Overman in the Senate Marble room. "He was a loyal friend," said Senator Gorman, . "and T admired him very much." The meeting between Mr. Julian and the Maryland senator was very pleasant. "I just wanted to tell you 1 that I am for you for presi dent," said Mr. Julian after being in troduced, "and I might add that the state of North Carolina is also for you. We have never forgotten how you once stood by the south." ' ''Trying, to get me in more trouble than I am now v in," was the laughing response of the senator. The conversation ra-n along for soma minutes, Senator Overman also taking part. , Senator Gorman referred to his Interest in North Carolinians. "Caro linians and Marylanders have always gotten along wTell together," he said, "especially since they stood side by side at Guilford House." -. . ' Senator Frye, president, pro tern. -of the Senate, introduced today a bill for the construction of a light houso at Diamond shoals, off Cape JIatteras. The fact that Senator Frye, who 4s chairman of the Senate committee on commerce, has token sufficient interest in the measure to introduce it is sig nificant, and gives Representative Small and the other friends of the bill strong hopes of ultimate success. Sena tor Frye told the correspondent of the Post today that he was very much in favor of the measure and would press its passage. The bill authorizes Albert F. Eels of Boston to construct the light house according to an original design and appropriates $590,000 for the purpose. , The American Forestry Association, at its annual meeting here today, de clared strongly in, favor of the estab lishment of the proposed Appalachian national" forest reserve. "Resolutions adopted, set forth that the southern mountain foresti? are of national im portance in their Influence upon stream flow and upon timber supply, and whereas, widespread loss has already resulted from their misuse, therefore the association will lend its best ef forts to procuring the creation of a national forest reserve in the southern Aappalachian mountains. Among the prominent members of the association attending the annual meet ing are' Secretary of Agriculture "Wil son, Gifford Pincht, chief of the bureau tary expedition with secrecy and de- nials are made that there is any im mediate prospect of the dispatch of troops to the isthmus, It is now ad mitted, however, that the army is prepared for any emergency which may arise. Lieutenant General Young, chief of staff, said today: "The army is prepared for any situation of no great er magnitude than, from present indi cations, exists in connection with the troubles on the isthmus." The joint army and navy board held a meeting today soon after the receipt of aditional' information in regani to the movement of Colombia upon the isthmus and promptly denied that the subject had been discussed at the war department. However, the importance of the situation was admitted by the officers, and it was explained that offi cial advices from Panama showed that the objective of the Colombian troops was Panama a.nd not Colon. Anticipating the movement of Colom bian forces, Rear Admiral. Glass and Rear Admiral Coghlan, commanding the United States naval forces in isth mian waters," have .sent naval vessels to patrol the coasts. Any attempt by the Colombians to invade the isthmus by landing of; troops within the terri tory of the republic vof Panama will "be resisted by the naval forces of the United States;-but it Is pointed out that tne warships can not prevent such landing as seems to be contemplated by the Colombians. The marines will, it is declared, do all that they can to protect the railway and the canal strip across the isthmus and will also resist any invasion of thev isthmus by land, but there is not any intention of send ing the marines Into the mountain trails to do scouting duty. The opin ion prevails here that should Colombia forces reach 3an Miguel as planned, there Will then, be ample time "within which to send troops to Colon and thence across by railway to Panama before the Colombian soldiers can march Into Panama! Steps have al ready been taken by the general staff to ascertain the best point of embark ation for American troops and inquir ies were sent out several days ago by the military information division of the general staff for information as to Prepares die Fanama dais can of forestry, and Dr. Shenck, who Is in charge of George Vanderbilt's estate at Asheville. President Roosevelt caused the an nouncement to be made some time ago that fourth class postmasters should be removed from the sphere of parti san politics, but these appointments are as much an asset of the Republican party as others paying profitable sal aries. Representative Patterson found this out today when he made a recom mendation to fill at Henrietta, Robe son county. He did not consider poli tics in the matter, because a Demo crat of the strongest type had been the postmaster there and only recently re signed. Bristow announced that he could not hear Mr. Patterson and de clared that he would refer the matter to the Republican state organization. Benjamin Patterson, the promoter who was arrested at "Washington, N. C, arrived here this morning in charge of Detective j Weedon. When the de tective reached the North Carolina town he found that Patterson had been released on $200 security and was in the country, about twelve miles dis tant. He subsequently returned and on advice of his counsel, W. B. Rod man, consented to return without de manding a hearing. When the pris oner was conveyed to police headquar ters he was met by Messrs. Benjamin F. Edwards and Nathan Horn, upon each of whom, it Is alleged, he passed; worthless checks. "Have you come to try on that tux edo suit?" the tailor said. "I'm not in a position to, try It on just at present," the latter replied, "but I will later. You need not bother about the money for you will get it all richt." Patterson was measured and photo graphed. Five charges of passing worthless, drafts have been lodged against him. It is said that Patterson owns con siderable stock in the Chase City and Blackstone Railway, and that he was comparatively wealthy a few years ago. He is said to have lost many thousands of dollars in. railway stocks. It is known that some drafts given by Patterson were paid, and the man un der arrest says all the drafts he gave are good, and that they will be paid. In a few days Representative W. W. Kitchin will introduce a bill providing for the acquisition of the Guilford bat tle ground" by the government. If the historic spot is placed in possession of the government it is believed that it will be maintained in a manner be coming its importance and that liberal appropriations for its improvement will result. Mr. Kitchin is in correspond ence writh President Morehead of the battle ground association with refer ence to this subject. Senator Overman has introduced a bill in behalf of Mrs. Elizabeth Har grave, who has a claim of $1,000 against the government. Henry A." Page is here, the guest of his brother, Representative Page. the best and quickest route for troops to take to go from Fort Thomas, Fort Snelling, Fort Sheridan, and Fort Rie ly to the ports of Mobile, New Orleans, Galveston, Charleston and New York. Steamship companies have also been consulted as to their facilities for hand ling about four regiments of troops on quick notice, and thQ opinion is now expressed at the war department that it will be better to rely on commercial steamers for the sending of a small expeditionary force than to rely on the army transports. In case of imme diate trouble on the isthmus which might require the instant dispatch of troops, the Kilpatrick, now in . New York, undergoing repairs, may be used. It was learned tonight that the news of the landing of Colombian troops at the mouth of the Atrato came from W. W. Russell, United States charge d'affaires at Caracas, Venezuela, and was to the effect that it had been brought to La Guayra by a French steamer. The steamer,, which hailed from Savanilla, reported that the num ber of Colombian soldiers landed at the mouth of the Atrato was 1,100 and that they were going) to march over the Darien mountains to the isthmus. From other official sources the gov ernment heard that 5,000 Colombian troops were on their way to the Isth mus but for some reason the authori ties here doubt this information. Accuracy or Hrporii Qnestlona LaGuayra, Venezuela, Dec 9. The French steamer Versailles, which has arrived here from Savanilla, . reports that Colombian steamers have landed 1,100 men from Cartagena, hear the mouth of the Atrato river (on the gulf of Darien) to open a way over the Darien mountains into Panama. , Other troops from the department of Cacua, Colombia,, are said to be con verging on Panama, and from all parts of Colombia troops are reported to be marching or waiting on the result of General Reyes' mission to Washington. Washington, Dec. 9. Dr. Herran, j the Colombian charge d'affaires, today au thorized the statement that if troops from Cartagena have landed near the mouth of the Atrato river, as reported by the French steamer Versailles, which has arrived at LaGuayra, it is directly in opposition to the advices of both himself and General Reyes. Gereral Reyes said that the La Guayra dirpatch was the first informa tion he bad received of the reported movement of Colombian troops. He declared, however, that if it is true, as Etated, that such movement has taken place, It was without any orders from him. Upon coming to Washington as the special representative of the Colom bian government General Reyes tem porarily relinquished the command of the Colombian army, the duties falling upon General Castro, second in com mand. General Reyes confirmed the statement recently made by Admiral Coghlan, in a report to the navy de partment, that, prior to his departure for Washington he had given instruc tions to the Colombian troops to make no. hostile" demonstration until he was heard from, and said that these troops were now awaiting orders, which, how ever, would not come from him direct, but fromthe government at Bogota. Asked as to the probable length of his stay in the United States, he re plied that it was indefinite. He would, he said, hold another conference with Secretary Hay in the course of the next few days. STILL ON THE BEACH & Reported Sinkin&of the Moc casin Was Incorrect Washington, Dec. 9. The navy de partment heaird unofficially today that the submarine boat Moccasin, which went ashore at Currituck, had been floated but sank. It telegraphed the. report to Rear Admiral Harrington, commandant 0$ the Norfolk navy yard, and got this response: "Replying to telegram, one attempt to float Moccasin this morning failed, have no doubt of success when wind comes from westward." The full cficial report of the ground ing of the Mofccasin was received at the navy department today from Lieuten ant England, who commanded the tug Peorl&s which was towing the Mocca sin and the Adder"; when they went adrift off Cape Henry. He describes in detail the gallantry of boatswain Patrick Deery of the Peoria, who jumped overboard in an ice cold and tumultous sea and succeeded in getting a tow line from the Peoria to the Ad der, thus saving the S Jbrnarine boat. HOPES OF BEAGE IN THE FAR EAST Reports From Japan Do -Not Agree With Those Ema nating. From St, Petersburg - London, Dec. 9. The hope is gener ally expressed here that the report from St. Petersburg that the confer ence between thp czar and Count Lams dorff, Russian minister of foreign af fairs, which practically resulted in an agreement to make terms with Japan In the far east, may be construed 3 an attempt by Russia to" save her face preliminary to a complete concession of Japam's demands. The correspond ent of the Sun is authorized to deny unequivocally that Japan has made or will make any modification of her de mands for a free hand in Corea. Rus sia's withdrawal of all claims in the peninsula must therefore be complete. If the report from St. Petersburg was allowed to be sent as preliminary to such withdrawal it will be wel comed as a signal of peace and a dip lomatic victory for Japan. No news of this happy result has, however, reach ed "Tokio. Japan's position in regard to Manchuria is the same as that of the other powers. She will be content to handte that question separately, alone, or in co-operation with Great Britain arid the United States if Rus sia will definitely abandon all her claims to Corea. NATIONAL COMMITTEE Chairman Jones Calls a Meet ing on the 12th of January Washington, Dec. 9. The Democrat ic National Committee will assemble in this city at the Shoreham hotel Jan uary 12th at noon. The following let ter was sent today by Chairman Jones to each member of -the committee: Washington, D. C, Dec. 9, 1903. Dear Sir: There will be a meeting of the Democratic National Committee at the Shoreham Hotel in Washing ton City, on Tuesday, the 12th day of January, 1904, at 12 m., to fix the time and place of holding the Democratic National convention for the nomina tion of condidates for president and vice-president of the United States,! and for such other business as may come before the committee. Very truly yours, JAMES K. JONES, Chairman. NORTHERN SECURITIES 1 Contentions Set Forth a Brief for Appellants j Washington, Dec. 9. A brief in be- half 1 of Messrs. J. Pierpont Morgan,: Robert Bacon and Daniel S. Lamont, ' appellants, with others, in the case of the United States against the North-; era Securities Company, was filed inj the United States supreme court" to day by Attorneys Francis Lynde Stet son andj David Wilcox. They claim, on behaljC of their clients, that the so called merger was entirely lawful and say: "These transactions have consisted merely in the organization of a law-, ful corporation of Xew Jersey and in the sale to and purchase by it of prop erty by lawful sale. All acts done in relation to the organization of the Northern Securities Company and to the purchase by It of the shares of stock of railway companies and to, the sale thereof by the owners were ex pressly jaiUthorized by law. The legal effect off the transaction has been that the owiler of the stock in one of the railway, companies has sold the same to the Securities Company, and has re ceived therefor stock of the Securities Company, which' company owns the stock hot merely of one of the rail way companies, but the stock of both." "THE SUN DO MOVE" Attempt to Be Funny Reproved by Thomas Nelson Page, New York, Dec. 9. At the Southern Society dinner at the Waldorf Astoria tonight, Robert L. Harrison, the toast master, referred to the Panama affair as one instance where the Republicans had sanctioned secession and referred to the president's luncheon to Booker Washington and the Bassett incident in the south, of which he said he only could remark with old John Jasper that 'the sun do move." Thomk Nelson Page deprecated this introduction of the negro question. He said, "This mistake has not been re vealed by the distinguished friend whom -t lie toastmaster mentioned, and I think you should be forgiven fothat mistake COTTON AT 15 CENTS A Texas Authority Ventures to Make a Prediction Washington, Dec. 9. President E. S. Peters, of the Texas Cotton Growers Protective Association, ! who is in Washington to urge remedial legisla tion for the boll weevil invasion, said today: ' "I would like to convey to every cot ton grower o the south this message: The agricultural department report es timating the crop at 9,962,000 bales ds hot only conservative, - but is oyer rather than under the indicated yield. I would therefore earnestly urge - all growers of the staple not to part with their holdings except at their real value, which is pot less than fifteen cents a pound, the figure I have re peatedly predicted would be paid. Let future markets alone ahd allow no middlemen and speculators to fix the price of the fruit of your labors. This is the opportunity of the southern planters. If there is to be a corner, let them Conduct it themselves and reap the benefits." STREET CAR RIOTS 5 in Chicago Ugly To Mob wards Non-union Men Chicago, Dec. 9. Rioting occurred in Wentworth avenue late this afternoon. City Railway Company cars, manned by non-union crews, were stoned, 'win dows were broken and several passen gers received injuries at the hands of mobs that congregated at Root street and "VVentworth avenue, apparently for the purpose 6f making a demonstration against the non-union men. At Forty-seventh street two heavy wagons took possession of the car trac'zs ,and moved leisurely nbthward, the drivers paying no attention to the frantic! ringing of the gong on a car driven by a non-union motorman. When Root street was reached eight or nine cars were bunched behind the teams. The crowd in waiting rained a shower of bricks, pieces of coal, and other missiles upon" the cars. The teams having deserted the track, the motor men put on full speed and escaped. Seve al passengers were injured by broker glass and by contact with mis Giles. No arrests were made. ..( - Reduction of Southern Rep resentation in Convention5 i Meets With Favor Washington, Dec. 9. Members of the Republican national committee who have arrived in Washington to attend next Friday's meeting are very favor ably impressed with the detaals of the proposition named by Gen. Brayton, the Rhode Island i member, for fixing the number of convention delegates from southern states on the basis of Republican votes castJ But while Gen. Braylon's plan is populaj-, it is not likely that the subject' will be taken up fey the committee, as it 18 he general opinion of influential Republicans that the question should be dealt with by the convention itself. If Gen. Bray ton' proposition and others of like charad ter that have been prepared are submitted to,, the committee in the form of rev blutions they will probably be laid aide for reference to next sum- mer s convention. F mrose Laid oe the Shelf There Is No Knowing When It Will Be Takep Down. Discussion of Cuban Reciprocity Con tinued i g i ! Washington, tec. 9.U The develop ments in the Senate today made it un certain when the resolution by Mr. Penrose for an Investigation of the post office department will come up for further consideration. Immediately after the routine:' morning business Sen ator Gorman, iollowi?ig Senator Cul lom, who had 'suggested that the time had arrived to take uj? the Cuban bill said that there was an understanding yesterday to the effectj that the postal investigation resolutioh should be con sidered until 1 o'clock.1 Senators Cullom, . Aldrlch, Spooner and others combatted the Idea that any business w.s In (jrder exceut the Cuban bill until j that tiill was disposed of or until the; time j came when,, no senator wished to speak on it. . ' The result of this discussion was that the matter went over w ithout any defi nite Idea as to when it shall be taken up. V- ' 1 Mr. Teller continued jhls peech, be gun yesterday. He agln. took up the conduct of Genj. Woo. while acting governor of Cuba. He jsa&Id there wera official; records to snow paid that the Cuban -government had exceeding $15, 000 in that interest during Gen. Wood's administration. He declared that the press of both the United Stsutes and Cuba had been utilized; In support ot the policy of reciprocity, and quoted figures showing the amounts paid foi newspapers advocating the policy. Mr. Teller was followed by Mr. Mor gan of Alabama, who also opposed the bill. ' ' ; 1 A - Mr. Morgan discussed the Cuban bill very briefly, devoting most of his two hour speech to a consideration of the situation at Panama, His argument was that the alleged participation ot the United States In the Panama revo lution and the consequent acquisition by the United States of sovereignty over a strip of Isthmus would cause all Latin America, including Cuba, to look askance at the United States. Either the relations with Cuba should be al lowed to remain; as they are for the present os Cuba should be admitted as a state in the union. Mr. Morgan Inserted into- his speech a copy of the Panama canal treaty. He denounced this treaty as the "most abominable, horrible, awful piece of business that the United States had ever engaged in," and quoted ex-Secretary of State j Olney j as saying that he hunpuhis head in, shame at the atti tude of his country The treaty, Mr. Senator Hoar He Introduces a Resolution Designedi to Uncover the Connection of the Ad- ration With minis the Panama Revolution Washington, Dec. 9.
