Four of Rojestvensky 's most powerful battleships including a com plement of cruisers, and torpedo boats have split from the malnlbody which passe I Singapore, and while their (pur pose is not made public it is believed they have planned to strike Togo from an unexpected quarter. With the aj - pearance of the Vladivostok fleet in the open sea,! Russian naval experts figure Togo would feel compelled to dispatch some of his fighting ships to -Japanese waters to protect the"' coast from attack.

Conclusive Historical Rticirch Wirnnled Statement Engraved on Memorial. Special to Journal. - . -. Appomattox Court House, Va., April 10. Today was a memorable one for Nerth Carolina, as it marked the un veiling of the first Southern Memorial on the famous surrender-field of Appo mattox Court House, Virginia, where a notable company of North Carolinians, headed by Governor Glenn, met with other veterans from Virginia to dedi cate a monument of North Carolina granite in perpetual memory of the m from the old North State who .-'. . -s made the last stand there, the last charge, captured the last Federal bat tery, one of the regular artillery and which then surrendered. . When the noble monument to North Carolina's Confederate dead was unveil ed in May 1896, in the Capitol Square Raleigh the inscription that was up on -it was considered .very striking. "North Carolina. First at Bethel, last at Appomattox." This was but the beginning of the State's record of services in the great wars. Researches showed that the troops from this State had gone farther- a,t Gettsburg and Chickamauga, and that North Carolina had furnished more men to the Confed eracy than any ether State. Thus it came about that these statements were set broadly upon the remarkable series of publications known as the Regi mental Histories which the State is sued. The next event was something in the nature of a surprise. Ai the meeting of the Grand Camp of Virginia Confederate Veterans eighteen months ago Judge George L. Christian of Ricl mond took occasion ' to dispute the claims of North Carolina, and his re marks published in pamphlet form were widely scattered. ' North Carolina was prompt in replying and The State Literary and Historical Society, which met in October, not long after the statements by Judge Christian, appoint ed a committee composed entirely of Confederate.Veterans who had partici pated in all the battles named to make a fitting response and to publish it. The committee divided out the work and its various members visited the battle -ground, going over these with great care, in several cases with United States officers. The result was the publication last summer of a pamphlet which is regarded as having proved con clusively every claim made.,. Out of this matter grew something else notable, namely the determination by the State to mark for all time, In enduring granite and bronze what it had so stoutly contended for in battle and long afterwards. The Legislature was asked by the Confederate Veterans to create a committee or commisssion to provide memorials at Bethel, Gettys burg, . Chickamauga and Appomattox I and did so. The first of these to be dedicated is that at Appomattox. The Commission, of which Henry A. London was made the chairman selected' the design and the monument was built at Raleich: and thence shipped to the spot, the design of the construction being by Cooper Bros. There is marked simplicity of design. While there are more than 150 markers, small in size, showing the position of the Federal troops at Appomattox, this is the first one erected showing what the Con federates did there. For some reason it has been regarded as a fact that there was no battle at Appomattox, while on the contrary there was severe fighting anJ the United States officer now on Th i i PLASTICO economical material for tinting; and decorating walls, superior : to kalso tnine and wall paper, and much cheaper than paint.

' ... duty at military headquarters here who was then on duty . in the regular artillery saw the capture of one of his batteries by the North Caro!ini:iri8. The point chosen for the memorial is the center of the line of -the brigade of Infantry commanded by Gen. William BufHn Cox, which fired the last volley; the attack having been planned by his Division Commander, .General Bryan Grimes. Smaller markers indicate the point of the capture of the battery and of the last cavalry charge, the Litter being under the command of Gtheral William P. Roberts. The lady chosen to unveil the memorial was Mrs Harry Grimes Smith, a daughter " of ; General Grimes, and the silk headquarters flag' of Grimes' Division was displayed, this having been the last one to be furled after the surrender, and having" been. brought back to Raleigh by a private soldier' of one - of the most notable families in the State who placed it un der his. clothing and next . to his body. 'v It came about that when it became known what the inscription was used c n the memorial, thnoie'f-iWVirgj!iia Veterans took offence, at it, stating that the claims were not accurate, and some camps evpn one at Appomattox, at a meeting formally voted not to parti cipate, but others took no part in such action, and the .Governor of the State accepted with great courtesy "and promptness the invitation on the part of North Carolina to deliver tlic address of welcome, to which Governor Glenn of this State, whose father was a Con federate soldier responded. There were in North Carolina also found some Con federate Veterans who did not like the inscription upon the monument, nota bly the State Auditor and General Cox, both of these holding that the inscrip tions setting forth North Carolina's claims were not in good taste and might wound the feelings of Veterans from other States, not that they were in- accurate.Jbut because they thought they could not have been placed upon certain memorials, which in their opinion should only set forth what occurred in Appo mattox. General Cox had been design ated as one of the principal speakers, but ho wrote to Chairman London -of the Veterans commission, notifying him that he would not be present. On the other hand Julian S. Cair, the Major General Commanding the North Carolina Division of United Confed erate Veterans expressed his very great satisfaction with the memorial nni alfo with the inscriptions upon it. North Carolina's foremost poet Pro fessor, Henry Jerome Stockard Vias designated by the Commission to com pose and read the ode at the cere monies, and his production is regarded as a no'able one, striking a high note.
