Distinguished Citizen of Georgia and

Judge William L. Gary died in Augusta,
Ga., Thursday afternoon after
as illness of about one year's duration.
^ The announcement oi nis aemi3e
came as a great shock to all Augustus,
who-, loved and honored the gal-,
last Sooth Carolinian, whose adopted
hove was Georgia. There was no
man in the city or county better
known or more ardently admired than
Judge Gary. His humanity was of
the broadest and most generous
% gauge, in appearance and action he
was the,typical South Carolina gentleman
of the old school, brave as a
lion, courteus at all times and generous
to a fault. He shirked no duty
^ and his hand and heart were ever
ready to extend aid or sympathy to
those who. needed it.
As a presiding officer of the superior
court he was dignified and firm,
yet he always tempered justice with
mercy. He went about his labors in
a most businesslike manner and overworked
himself in clearing congested
dockets.

^t Winchester, Tennessee, Trio of
Murderers Pay Penalty for Heinous
Double Crime.
At Winchester, Tenn., Thursday
morning, Henry Judge, Joe Delp ant.
John Evans were hanged for the murder
of Simon Bueher and his wife last
August.
The trap was sprung at 5:48 and
all three died without a struggle. The
condemned men exhibited the same indifference
and stolidity that marked j
their conduct during the trials and
walked boldly and without assistance
onto the scaffold. Each of them made j
a short speeech in which they expressed
their preparedness and said tneii
only regret was to leave their wives
and children. None of them made any
reference to the deed for which thej
paid the panaltj\
The crime for which this trio of
white men paid the extreme penalty
was the murder of Simon Bucher and
his wife on the oth of last August.
It was Judge who conceived and
planned the deed, and his motive is
said to have been prompted by a desire
to get rid of Bucher because he
had the oversight on some mountain
lands upon which Judge wanted to
have the timber. Judge employed Evans
and Delp to do the murder. The
conspirators reached the Bucher home
late in the afterroon and asked to
be shown in the garden. Bucher led
the way and when a short distance
from the house was shot in the back
by Delp. Bucher dropped in his tracks
and was found the next day.
The assassins then returned to the
house* where Evans shot Mrs. Bucher.
Fire was then s^t to the house and
the murderers left both victims for
dead. The charred body of Mrs. Bucher
was found next morning and upon
further investigation her husband was
discovered in the garden near by. Bu-1
cher was conscious but paralyzed
in the lower libs, and his face was
badly scorched.
He lived long enough to make a declaration
to a minister in whicn he
told of the assault by Evans and Delp,
who were shortly afterwards apprehended.
They did not betray the arch
conspirator.- but coDdential information
led the sheriff to suspect Judge, and
his arrest followed.
CHARGE AGAINST SOLDIERS.
Eight Artillerymen Accused of Criminally
Assaulting Young Girl.
A special from Savannah, Ga., says:
Eight United States army artillerymen
are in irons at Fort Screven, Tybee
Island, awaiting a courtmartial or
trial by civil court. They are charged
with criminal assault committed upon
a young white woman, Sallie Guest, of
Douglas, Ga. The terrible story has
been current in Savannah for some
days, the alleged crime havfhg been
committed two weeks ago. The commanding
officer and other officers at
Fort Screven made every effort to suppress
the facts, and to prevent any
publication of the matter, and up to
this time succeeded.
They considered that the honor of
the army was involved and that the
story should be spared as far as pos
sible all publicity. They have not telt

any degree intending that justice snail
be done. They had the eight alieged
culprits put under arrest at once. A
man who saw the girl after the outrage
declared that she was 17 years
old and that she had come from Valdosta,
Ga., at the solicitation of one
of the soldiers, who was from the
same town, and who was under promise
to wed her. When the girl arrived
at; the reservation she was met bj
her lover. The story has It that there
was something to dr!nk at hand and
that the young woman was unwise
enough to indulge in it.
She and her lover wandered off into
the woodland of the reservation

RUSSIA CLAIMS VICTORY.
_____ 7
Great Slaughter of Japs Offsets Rout
of Czar's Forces.
The gloom which prevailed in St
Petersburg Tuesday says an Associated
Press dispatch, was almost com- j
pletely dispelled Wednesday morning j
when the people read the story of I
the glorious fight made by General j
Zassalitch's hand::ul of rough regi- j
ments against the flower of the mikado's
legions at the Yalu and of the utter
defeat of Vice Admiral Togo's new i
attempt to seal the entrance to Port
Archur.
It is now plain that not more than
8,000 Russians were actually engaged
in the fighting at, the Yalu against
the Japanese army, of a total strength
of between 3U,UUU ana *u,uuu. me
losses on both sides, which are expected
to reach 1,000 and possibly
1,200 in the Russian force and twice
that number for the Japanese make it
one of the bloodiest fights in history.
At the river crossing the Japanese
dead lie piled up literally in heaps,
ana General Kuroli's success was purchased
at such a heavy cost that the
Russians are disposed to regard it as
rather a defeat thsn a victory for him.
General Kuropatkin's dispatch
shows that the Russians fought with
such bull-dog tenacity and bravery j
against overwhelming superiority of I
enemy that the latter's nominal vie- J
tory was eclipsed by the prowess of
the czar's soldiers.

Canal Work is Turned Over

IS ORDER OF PRESIDENT!

I
Conference Is Held in Washington, a< 1
Which Regulations of Commission
in Great Undertaking Arc
Decided Upon.
I
A Washington special says: Presi- j
dent Roosevelt held a long conference j
Monday with Secretaries Hay and Tatt j
and Attorney General Knox, at which j
the regulations to govern the isth- j
mian canal commission were determined
on finally. Secretary Taft gave a
brief resume of their provisions at the
conclusion of the conference. Wnile j
the creation and work of the commis- j
sion is committed by lav/ to the pres- !
ident, whose authority in that- regard |
is practically sup:erne, the president j
by the regulations directs that the
commission shall exercise its powers
under the direction and supervision
of the secretary of war. General Geo.
W. Davis, the army member of the
commission, is appointed governor of
the American zone on the isthmus. Until
the expiration of the fifty-eighth
congress, the isthmian commission will *
exercise executive authority over the
American strip. Governor Davis is
given authority to appoint one judge
who shall exercise judicial authority.
If in the opinion of the commissioner
an additional judge is necessary to
the proper conduct of the judicial
work on tie isthmus tne regulations
confer on the commission .authority
to appoint him.
. Secretary Taft explained" that it
manifestly would be impossible for
the president In the execution of his
duties to give that personal attention
to the canal work which is absolutely
necessary and as the war department
hitherto has exercised supervisory
control over public, civil and military
works and governmental control
over the territory dependent upon the
country, it was deemed advisable that
the isthmian commission should operate
under the direction of the war department.
What particular bureau of
the war department the commission
will be under has not yet been determined
by Secretary Taft, but he indicated
that it might, not be the bureau
of insular affairs, which> he Intimated,
already had enough work on
its hands.
Under the operation of what is
known as the dockery law, the auditing
o? the commission's accounts will
fall to the duty of the auditor of the
state department, but beyond the mat
ter of auditing, the state department
will not be charged with any : control
over the commission. The commission
itself will establish an elaoorate
system of bookkeeping, through which
its accounts may be handled very reasonably
by the state department auditor.
The committee will report directly
to the secretary of war as often
as he may direct, upon all phasej of
its operations. It will be under the
same soft of control of the secretary
of war as in the Philippine commission.
All directions concerning the
operations of the commission are set
out fully in the regulations, 'and a
recitation is made of all the operations
leading up to the acquisition of
the canal property and appointment of
the commission. The details still remain
to be worked out, but they are
largely administration in native and
are not regarded as essential :'to the
regulations themselves. ~

The disaster to Russian arms on the

first honor in his class.
After graduation he taught school

councils of the state and nation. The
late Governor W. Y. Atkinson, Governor

are among those who were his pupils.
Mr. Revill had long been identified
with public matters, having served in
the general assembly and having always,
taken an active part 1n questions
before the people. His memory
was a wonderful one, and he could
recall at a moment's notice events
In the careers of almost any public
man. He was a prominent church
member, belonging to the Methodist
denomination and was also a Mason.
News of the death of Colonel William
Revill was received at the capital
and among his many friends in
Atlanta with expressions of the most
profound regret.
At the capitol particularly did the
announcement cause sorrow. Governor
