JACKIES ATTACKED By Cuban Pi^.ve While on Shore Leave at Santiago. SEVERAL BADLY INJURED Americans Were Unarmed and Not One Policeman Was Hurl—Investi gation Under Way—Cubans Were Aggressors. Confirmation was received both at the navy and state departments at Washington Wednesday of the attack of the police of Santiago upon a par ty of sailors from the United States cruiser Tacoma who had been given liberty and were returning to their ship early in the morning. A full investigation is in progress, the re sults of which are awaited with in terest. Regarding the affair a Santiago dis patch sws: The conflict between the sailors and police, followed an order ly banquet which was given at the Cafe Leon de Oro by a party of first class seamen of the cruiser Tacoma. At 1 in the morning the men sepa rated and twelve of them went to the Cafe Union. They were not intoxicat- • ed. A police captain named Lay, who was in citizen’s -clothes, had been watching this cafe all the evening, with seven or eight policemen to sup port him. At about 2 o’clock in the ' morning the seamen started for the wharf with the intention of boarding the Tacoma. Captain Lay claims that the seamen started the trouble and the sailors claim that Captain Lay, without provocation, caused the dis turbance. As the enlisted men had been hin dered by the police on thtir way to the wharf, Ensign Brisbin decided to walk slightly ahead of the party. Suddenly he heard a revolver shot and Immediately afterwards tne po lice charged with revolvers and ma chetes. Brisbin received an ugly cut on the arm and was felled to the ground three times. As the crowd of seamen came up the policemen emp tied their revolvers at them, at the same time attacking the Americans with machetes. A fiegjce fight ensued, w;th the re sult that Henry L. Lee, a fireman of the Tacoma, will probably die of a compound fracture of the skull, caus ed by a machete, and a gunshot wound In the right breast. Ten other mem bers of the crew of the Tacoma were taken to the ship hospital suffering from machete wounds and clubbing. Not one of the policemen was bad ly hurt, though several of them suf fered from fist contusions. The captain and all the policemen who participated in the affa’r have been suspended by order of the civil governor of Santiago, on the repre sentations of Commander Tappan of the Tacoma, and the American con sul, Mr. Holaday, who affirm that the lives of tile American officers and men who go ashore are not safe while such men are acting as agents of the law. Mr. Holaday is making a thor ough Investigation of the incident. M0YER-HAYW00D HOWL Attorney for Men Accused of Murder of Governor Steuenberg Issues Their Statement.

Clarence Harrow of counsel f Haywood, Moyer and Pettlbone of e W'estern Federation of Miners ho are charged with complicity m the murder of former Governor { Ainen- berg, issued a formal state Jnt at Boise, Idaho, Wednesday n ght. It was anticipated that the statement would be a direct reply to Presideut Roosevelt’s “undesirable citizen’’ let ter, but the statement is general and the references to the president are to former letters of the excutive. The statement in part is as follows: “We have been charged with kill ing ex-Governor Steunenberg with a dynamite bomb. Our trial is to be gin May 9. The details of the as sassination have been published broadcast for more than a year. The press of the country, especially of that section of Idaho where we will be placed on trial, has bitterly de nounced us, and the Western Federa tion of Miners, to which we belong. “We were not in Idaho for years i before the crime was committed. Un der the law we could not be extra dited from Colorado. But in spite ol this, we were arrested on a perjured affidavit, charging that we were in Idaho at the time of the commission of the crime, and that we immedi ately fled from the state, and on this perjured affidavit the governors of Idaho and Colorado kidnaped us in the night time, refused us an inter view with family or a chance to an peal to the courts and brought us on a special train a thousand miles from . home and into a state and community ! systematically poisoned against us by j newspapers and officials. We have i been In jail fourteen months and de nied bail, while constantly demanding a trial. Every effort has been made to teach the farmers, business men and working men of the community that we are asassins and outlaws. “Our case Is about to be reached and the president of the United States —in no way interested, officially or otherwise—sends two letters broadcast over the country charging us with guilt and crime. These are repnblish ed in every paper in the land, and es pecially every paper in Idaho. “The governor of Colorado adds his wdfcis of spite and v«£itnn to those of the president and says that we are not only guilty of the crime charged, but many others. While the presi- Ident of the United States and the governor of Colorado are sending out their statements, the judge of inis county has brought acitizeu before him for contempt on the charge that he tried to influence the mind of a prospective juror by saying that the state administration was trying to railroad us. On the appearance of this man In court, the judge told the state’s attorney that hq. should have this obscure farmed indicted for fel ony because he tried to influence the mind of a prospective juror. The pres ident knows how much greater weight will be given to his words than those of an obscure citizen. "If we are to be tried in court, ev ery law-abiding citizen, however great or humble, should do everything In his power to cool the passions of man rather than add fuel to the flames. If we are to be thrown to the mob the officers should at least open our prison doors and give us some chance to defend ourselves.’’ Possibility of Scrap Between Mexico and Guatemala.

Attorney General Stead, of Illinois, has filed a suit against the lilinois Central Railroad Company to recover approximately $5,000,000 claimed by the state as due from the railroad in accordance with provisions of the company’s charter, giving the state a share in the road’s gross earnings. The strained relations between Mexico and Guatemala arising from •he failure of the latter to surrender under extradition proceedings for trial in Mexico, General Lima, charged with complicity in the assassination of President Burrillas, is a matter of se rious concern to ihe officials in Wash ington. They are sincerely desirous of the maintenance of peace in all of the three American republics, pending the meeting and conclusion of the sec ond Hague conference, otherwise the presentation of certain subjects to the conference by the United Slates would lose much of its force. With this iu view the state depart ment has gone to unusual lengths In its eftoi'cs to term mate the war be tween Nicaragua and rionauras and prevent its spicad to other Central American countries, and also to guard against further troubks in the fu ture by providing for a permanent peace commission to meet iu Nicara- gm The details of this last arrange ment particularly as to time and place, are expected to be disclosed in the treaty of Amalapa, when the text of that recently negotiated convention leaches Washington. Hence the officials view with appre hension the increasing friction be tween Mexico and Guatemala and there are frequent conferences at the state department, the last being Thurs day between Secretary Root, Assistant Secretary Bacon and Ambassador Creel of Mexico, in the pursuit of a common purpose to avoid a fresh out break of wmr. As the situation stands now, it may be stated on authority that the Mexican government does not teelieve it will be necessary to go to •ms—JeSgnr~pt uc utpai' EXCHANGE IS ENJOINED. Price Charges That Cotton is Classi fied by Improper Standard—Seller is Favored. VICTORV FOR PUBLIC Upon application of Theodore H. Price, Justie^Bischoff at New York, Thursdav^ifnted a temporary injunc tion r' lining he clasisflcation com- aiittee of the New York cotton ex change from classifying cotton by what are alleged improper standards. Under the order of Justice Bischoff, the exchange is enjoined from classi fying cotton by samples drawn from bales so long before the time of clas sification as to enable them to become jleached, from classifying samples un less the bale from which they were taken can be identified, unless they are compared w r ith pioper grades, or without affording an op .ortunity for comparison with standards of every grade, or fiom classifying cotton which is unmerchar .able uecause ot sand and dirt. The order also requires the classi fication committee of the exchange to deliver to members of the exchange a set of the type, of standards used by it iu certifying and classifying cotton. Mr. Price declared in his petition that the classifying committee classi fied samples which are not tagged so as to identify the bale from which it was taken, ths-t the classification is made by improper standards and that the committee is influenced by undue pressure to produce an over classification in favor of the seller, i-ie asks that the injunction be made pt rmanent. Late Thursday night, Henry W. Taft, representing the New York cot ton exchange, secured from Judge Bis choff a modification of the temporary injunction. It ^as represented to Judge Bischoff thjfc the injunction might seriously interfere with current contracts to thci injury of the mem bers of the exchange. Judge Bischoff accordingly modified the injunction so that it would not take effect pending a hearing in the matter Monday. RECORD PRICE FOR CONVICTS. does feel that it has a right to de mand of Guatemala the surrender of fugitives who Inve committed the greatest of crimes on Mexican soil. It is feared that the demand for Jose Lima will ultimately be refused by Guatemala, If fer no other reason than ■ because Lima is regarded as the right hand man of President Cabrera, iu whose interest he is charged with having connived at the assassination cf Barrilias. But in that event war might not fol low according to this authority. The Mexican troops that have mobilized on the Guatemaian frontier to the number of ten thousand would be re tained thrre and diplomatic relations of the two countries would be termi nated, but there would be no declara tion of war and no hostile acts on the part of Mexico so long as there was no fresh provocation by Guatemala. Such a situation would bo unpleas ant, but not In’o’erable and might be terminated in one or two ways, either by the breaking out of a revolution,di rectly against Cabrera’s government or by the decision of the latter to yield to the Mexican demand for Li ma's rxtradiiion. The Guatemalans as- - r* thaF n very active junta exists in Mexico with the object of financing and starting a revoluUon in Guatemala •cainr-t the existing government and it is pointed out that Genera! Barrilias was assassinated because he was the wad of that junta. Natural 1 -- —•*% the 'e mined w lotions between Mexico and Guatemala, rvvultiug from a termina- lion of all diplomatic interchanges, it might be supposed that the Mexican government would not be particularly diligent and earnest in its efforts to curb the activity of this junta in the matter of getting arms and men across the herder into Guatemala ; hence the belief that an active revolu tion may be expected.

The best contract other than this one was that made with the Hand Lumber company at Bay Minette, some days ago, for $43, up to that time the most remunerative ever made. It was for 100 men. There is a bad shortage of labor with the lumber mills at this time, caused by the farming people rushing back to the farms for the spring plant ing. ELEVEN BODIES RECOVERED.

DECISION OF HIGH COURT Atlantic Coast Line Appealed Against North Carolina Railroad Commission But Lost Contentioib /V\iss Lizzie Vaughan, FINE MILLINEKy. JOHNSON BUILDING, PARK AVENUE, AIKEN. YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO CALL AND INSPECT MY STOCK OF FINE MILLINERY. I HAVE AN EXPERIENCED NEW YORK TRIMMER THIS SEASON. The supreme court of the United States Monday decided, in effect, that the railroad commissioners of North Carolina can compel a railroad com pany operating In that state to eo ad just Its schedules as to accommodate passengers on other lines from any particular part of the state. The opinion was delivered by Jus tice White, in the case of the At lantic Coast Line Railroad Company vs. the Corporation Commission of North Carolina. The case arose out of an order issued by the commis sioners, directing the railroad com pany to make connection at Selma, N. C. f at 2:50 p. m., with a train on another line running from the eastern part of the state, with the object of accommodating passengers whose des tination was Raleigh.- The railroad company resisted the order on the grounds that it could not be complied with without putting on a special train, which would involve, extra expense. This, it was contend ed, amounted to taking property with out due process of law. The commis sion justified its course on the ground that compliance with the order was necessary to accommodate a large part of the public. The supreme court of North Carolina held against the railroad company, and its decision was affirmed by Monday’s action of the su preme court of the United States on the ground that the order of the com mission does not affect the rates, but is a proper act of state regulation. Justice White discussed at length t*vf^conteati°n of the railroad, com- pinir^r the case involved rates in any way, a nd said, in part: —“it or tne “This c a s n does_not involve > ; n- contest at Gl^nwood has just been 1 nrtTTTTn-m-i a— .ffnra won first MISS ELLA HUGHES, THE WELL KNOWN MILLINER, 810 BROAD ST., AUGUSTA, GA., INVITES THE LADIES OF AIKEN AND VICINITY TO AN INSPEC TION OF HER LARGE AND NEW STOCK OF SPRING AND SUMMER HATS.

Carson spoke whether an exercise of state author- Wofford and Brooks Wingard for ity to compel a carrier to perform a particular and specified duty as so inherently unjust and unreasonable as to amount to the deprivation of prop erty, without due process of law, or a denial of the equal protection of the laws. In a case involving the validity of an order enforcing a scheme of maximum rates, of course, the find ings that the enforcement of such scheme will not produce an adequate return for the operation of the rail road, in and of itself, demonstrates the unreasonableness of the order. Such, however, is not the case when the question is as to the validity of au order to do a particular act the doing of which dees not involve the question ot the profitableness of the operation of the railroad as an en tirety. “This is so because as the primal duty of a carrier is to furnish ade quate facilities to the public, that may well be compelled, although by doing so as an incident, some pecuniary loss from rendering such service may re sult. It follows, therefore, that the mere incurring of a loss from the per formance of such a duty dees not, in itself, necessarily give rise to the con clusion of the unreasonableness, as would be the case where the whole scheme of rates was unreasonable un der the doctrine of Smyth vs. Ames, or under the concessions made in tha two propositions we have stated. Of course, the fact that the furnishing of a necessary facility ordered may oc casion an incidental pecuniary loss Is an important, criterion to be taken into view in determining the reasona bleness of the order, but it is not tlie only one. As the duty to furnish necessary facilities is codeterminous with the powers of the corporation, the obligation to discharge that duty must be considered in connection whh the nature and productiveness of the corporate business as a whole, the character of services required, and the public need for its perform- formance.” NEW SECURITIES AUTHORIZED.
