B. ?. TILLMAN RAPS BLEASE SAYS THE GOVERNOR HAS LOST THE ENCAMPMENT T*f\ TUC CT* A TP 1 ML fiiNANci?L LOSS To Persons In Charleston Will Be Considerable On Acount Of Preparations Special Correspondence. Washington, April 22.-Senator Till man this morning undertook, ut the renu/>Ht of o numher of South Caroln ians to exert his influence with Secre tary Garrison to have the encamp ment sent to South (karolina, not withstanding the recent differences be tween Governor Meuse and the sec retary, which led the latter to revoke his order designating the Isle of Palme, for the encampment. The secretary told the Senator, however, that his mind waa made up, and that the en campment would he held in another State. Tonight Senator Tillman gave out the following Interview on the matter: "I have received numerous tele grams from friends in Charleston, and other places In South Carolina, beg ging me to use my influence with the War Department to get the secretary of war to select the Isle of Palms for the Military Encampment yet, instead of carrying it to some other State. I am informed the money spent already hy the owners of the Island In pre paring for this purpose, and the loss that will come to business men, mer chants truck gardeners, etc, will be very great.

Mr. Whaley and I had the matter all ar ranged, as we thought, and I left for South Carolina. But for the Govern or's unfortunate attitude and letters to the war department, there would have been no trouble whatever. If Governor Blease had waited until the ' orders were issued, and the thing set tled so far as the war department was concerned, there would have been no hitch at all. Hits at Blease, .The governors of North Carolina, fi orgia and Florida, would undoubted- I ly have written asking his permission, I as governor, for their troops to come into the State of South Carolina; for that is the rule throughout the United State, I believe, but his egotism prompted him to-advertise himself and- - magnify his own Importance and, charleston and the-whcle State wHlj be Bufferers thereby. ,.| ??*$$mii&M iib ?Sfl&igfcuita eacretary oi. war, inis morning ,Tor ?he ttl rs t time on this subject -.nd lound his mind made up. The ar nutgements for the the encampment1 to go to the Isle ot Palma was 'made through the adjutant "general's- of-" flee. The secretary of war then had nothing whatever to do with it. Gen eral Evans had made the inspection uiut reported in favor of that place, and I BO notified Mr. Sottlle. After the governor's letter, the secretary of war took a hand for the first time. ..Hr ?srr?Run in .nad. "Mr. Garrison emphatically gave me to understand'that under no circum stances would his decision be altered. The Governor had made him mad by his Insulting letters and he feels that he cannot afford now to have the en campment go to South Carolina at all; and to my regret, I found I had no influence with him whatever in re gara to this matter. "I am sorry the State will lose the encampment, because lt would have niven the people an opportunity to Bee the militia of other states, and Charleston will lose much trade and udvei li<?eiuent of the sort she wanta, lt Is now auv-rtised throughout the United States that ??oj th Carolina has lost the encampment on account of Its Governor's arrogant attitude towards thc secretary. o' war. I think, per haps, the- threatened war In M.?xlcb w|U prevent any encampment being held ut all; but, of course, I do not know this."

QUESTION CAN ONLY BE AN SWERED BY THE PEOPLE MUCH ?uVfiKiiSiNG Three Men In Anderson For the Purpose of Billing the City For Coming Attraction With all |riann finally completed for the holding of the Chautauqua herc next week, the etty yesterday was ad vertised as lt WES never advertised before and if Anderson people do not attend the event and take part in the amusements offered here it will cer tainly be their own fault and through no fault of the people who are back ing the chautauqua here. I Expeditions were sent out over the city yesterday for the purpose of ad vertising the approaching affair at thc various mill stores of the city and in the mill villages and now it can be said that there is not a spot in the city where the chautauqua has not been heralded. Anderson people will appreciate the fact that his chautauqua is not merely a traveling show. It visita only the biggest towns in the state, and it goes j only to the biggest towns when lt ls guaranteed that a certain amount from the seat sale will result, This is not a cheap attraction in any sense of the word. It is a collection of stars in their particular lines and every single number will be well worth hearing. The sale bf chautauqua, tickets ls booming-end promises to exceed all expectations. The ticket sale which started in earnest Monday night, under tiic l?uicD O' {uc CI>iu Aanuciutioh is being carried out with the usual vigor with which the Association has at tacked every proposition. Every one is interested in the Chautauqua and the ladles report the sale going on nicely. Indeed for one to say he is not interested in the Chautauqua puts him in the back number class Imme diately. Owing.to a great number of requests for special reserved seats. Secretary Wihaley has announced that reserved seats will be pluced on sale Saturday tor which a very nomiaal charge will be made to those desiring them. Fur ther details will be given later. One af tho first probier.", with whUh the Redpath Bureau has had to deg) each year, and what seems compara tively simple, ls the problem of suit able stages.
