ATLANTA, Ga., July 20.—The eighth re- unfon of the United Confederate Veterans began in this city today. Strictly speak- ing, the exercises commenced Sunday last with the dedication of a great auditorium in Piedmont Park. Such a meeting as that of Sunday has, it is said, never been held before in Atlanta. It was two-fold in its nature. While those present remembered with heartfelt sympathy the old veterans of the old war, their hearts also went out to the brave lads who have responded to the call fer a country’s honor again, and who have risked life and everything mor- tal before Santiago for the national flag over which their forefathers fought in the bleody sixties. The entire proceeds—and hundreds of dollars were realized—went to the Atlanta Relief Association to be transmitted to the Regular price. - Te. china Matting topes Memes Pte mater Georgia boys at the front.

Pickett, the hero of Gettysburg on the confederate side, reached Atlanta Sunday and was at once aken in charge by the local chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy, whose guest she will be during her stay in this city. The interesting announcement has been made that Mrs. Pickett has been for several years at work on a history of the war between the states, the full_manu- script of which she c taken to Atlanta. In response to quiry Mrs. Pickett said: “I re began writing on my or rather my husband's history of the war, fo: it contains practically all his notes and reports of the battles, nearly fif- teen years ago.

Virginia Taylor h the District Commi = SERVICE OF SUPPLICATION “House of Jacob” Congregation at Jerusalem Prayed for America’s Cause. The Meeting by the “Wall of Wail- ing” — Translation by Rabbi Stern of Cumberland, Md. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, CUMBERLAND, Md., July 20.—On June 17 last the congregation ‘House of Jacob,” at Jerusalem, held a speciai prayer service of supplication by the so-called “Wall of Watling,” a remnant of-the western wall of the ancient temple of Jerusalem. After the recital of Psalms 18, 20, 27, 35, 8% and 144 @ special prayer composed by the rabbi of the congregation for America’s cause was delivered. The following 1s a translation of the prayer, made by Rabbi J. L. Stern of Cumberland, the original being in He- brew: “We beseech Thee, O God of Mercy and Compassion, who heareth prayers. We, Thy servants of the House of Jacob, who dwell in Thy holy precincts, come this day to pour out our prayer on behalf of our brethren, the people of America who live in the United States, the peaple in whom Thou hast implanted the love of liberty and humanity more than in any other na- ton. These blessed people have gone out to battle against a mixhty foe, not to make broad their territory or to conquer neigh- bors, but to proclaim liberty unto captives and to deliver impoverished people from the wrath of their despoilers and to spread justice forever, in which ‘inou delightest, as it was written ‘I am the Lord who ex- erciseth mercy, justice and righteousness in the earth, for in these things I delight, saith the Lord.’ “Thou, O Lord, who dost search the heart, look down from heaven and behold the battling hosts and let Thy countenance shine upon the army that is moved by the sentiments of righteousness and by thé love of humanity, and on the young men and their leaders who offtr their lives for a just cause, for the succor of the oppressed from their oppressors. Help them, Q God, and send Thy angels before them, and let them succeed whithersoever they turn. Uphold the hand of the ruler of that coun- try and crown its heroes with the crown of victory. But against their enemies lift Thy mighty hand and annihilate their power. Avenge the blood of Thy servants that has been shed by a@ cruel nation, and crush Thine enemies forever. In order that it May be known among all the inhabitants of | the earth that Thou, our God, art a right- eous Judge between the nations, and that all the tyrants shall recognize Thy power and the glory of Thy kingdom. For Thou, O God, art the king of the universe. And may a redeemer come unto Sion. Amen.” Judge E. Boyd Faulkner of Martinsburg, Va., sitting at Keyser, W. Va. as a Special judge, Judge Dalley being dis- qualified, decided the suit of Susan B. Sey- mour against mrod Ajkire, which began in 1856, wher West Virginia a part of Virginia, and Mineral county had not yet been separated from Hampshire. In the sale of a piece of property by trustees in the year mentioned notes were made out for the amounts to be distributed amongst the heirs, and in so doing a division was made of a sum of one thousand dollars less than the amount stipulated in the court’s ratification of the sale. This blunder was discovered after several years, and litiga- tien started. Many very difficult and in- teresting questions were raised and elabor- aiely argued, and every inch of ground contested. By the decree of Judge Faulk- ner, Mrs. thousand dollars involved, her share of the same, and the interest on the same since 186, making about $1,200 in all. The in- terest amounts to three times the princi- pal. The case may go to the supreme court of appeals. Messrs. A. A.

Why Such a Large Nawber Will Be Retained ‘There. War Department officials feel that they are fully justified in their decision to re- tain practically all of Shafter’s army at Santiago. Recent press reports indicate the growth of serious friction between the American forces and the Cuban troops. It is felt now that the garrison originally pro- posed, two immune regiments, would have been quite insufficient to meet an outside Spanish force that might come from Hol- guin or Manzanillo, and also to réstrain the rapacity of the Cubans. It is realized that the situation is full of difieulty, and the future is dark owing to the disposition evidenced by the Cubans to ignore or refuse to be bound by the amenities of modern warfare. This first symptom of friction has Suggested to the officials innumerable difli- culties that will arise in the future. Of course it would seem to be only politic now to avoid any open rupture with the Cubans provided Ag can be kept in leash and not involve the United States in the disgrace that would follow the sacking of) helpless communities, but it begins to appear that for some time to come, and even after the Seymour receives a third of the. ‘Clearance--Clearance--Everywhere- AH Over the Store.

The reduction of the harbor fortifications will be the main work, but this and all other operations of the fleet will be supp!e- mentary to the main operations conducted by the army. The strategists, military and navel, are agreed in the view that the tak- ing of Porto Rico is primarily a military undertaking, and Admiral n’s or- ders are on these lines. The Navy Department is ‘rapldly moving the large fleet of auxillary craft, made up of merchant ships, large ocean-going yachts, tugs, etc., from Atlantic eozst points to Cuban waters, where they will be placed on blockade duty, thus releasing the larger ships for more active duty at Porto Rico and ‘the coast of Spain. Three of these smaller craft were sent south ycs- terday, and most all of them will be on’ the = goa as — ne only long ugh at Norfolk to have their batteries strengthened. sees Admiral Sampson’s Pact in the Porto Rico Expedition, Admiral Sampson has received final or- ders from the Navy Department as to the part the American fleet is to take in the campaign against Porto Rico.¥ They are based on the view that the campaign is es- sentially an army movement, the duties of the navy being to lend every support and assistance to the land operations. The ad- n.iral is instructed to ald the army meve- ments by dispatching convoys when re- quired, and by covering the landing of troops. As there Is no Spanish fleet in San.
