A Senate on Constitutional Law.
Washington, Aug. 16.—-Sergeant at
Arms Bright of the senate received a.
dispatch last night from Senator Wad--
thallof Mississippi, sexing that his col-
league, Senator George, died yesterday
afternoon at Mississippi City, Miss, and
asking that Vice President Hobart and
Senator-elect Money of Mississippi be
notified. The sergeant,..at arms accord-
ingly telegraphed Mr. Hobart at Plattss
burg, on Lake» Champlain, where he is,
with the president. The vice president
will determine whether a. committee 'of
senators will be appointed to go to Mis-
sissippi, a duty somewhat difficult at‘
this season, with senators widely scat-
tered and the place of funeral remote.
Sen-tor George’s Cancer.
Senator George was not a native of
Mississippi, but had resided in that
state since his eighth year. He was
born in Monroe county, Ga, on the ,26th
day of October, 1826. After the death of
his father, which occurred in the sena-
tor’s early infancy, he removed with his
mother in 1834 to, Noxubu county, Miss,
remaining there for only two years and
then going to Carroll county, where he
maintained his legal residence until his
death.
Senator George obtained his educa-
tion in the common schools and did
not begin his professional career until
after the close of the Mexican war, in
which he served as a. private in the
regiment commanded by Jefferson Da-
. \

vis. Among other engagements in
which he participatéd was the battle of
Monterey. Upon his return from Mex-
ico, Mr. George studied law and was
admitted to the bar at Carrollton, rising
so rapidly in his profession that he was
elected reporter of the high court of
errors and appeals in 1854, being re—
elected to this position in 1860. He pre—
pared and published 10 volumes of re-
ports of decisions of this. court and aft-
erward prepared and published a digest
of all the decisions of the supreme and
high court of errors of the state from
the admission of the state into the Un—
ion up to 1870. .
He was a. member of the Mississippi
' convention of 1861, by which the ordi-
'nance of secession was passed, and he
voted for and signed that instrument.
He afterward took an active and prom-
inent part in the civil war, casting his
lot with the south. He left the con-
vention hall to become a. captain in the
Twentieth regiment of Mississippi vol—
unteers. He rose to the rank of briga-
dier general of state troops before the
close of the war, also serving at a later
period as colonel of the Fifth cavalry
of his state.
When the civil war closed, Mr. George
returned to Carroll county, resuming
the practice of his profession and lat-
ter entering into politics. He was chair-
man of the Democratic executive com-
mittee in 1875-6. In 1879 he was ap-
pointed to the supreme bench and soon
afterward elected chief justice, in which
capacity he was serving his staté when
first elected to the senate of the Unit-
States in,1881. He had been twice re-
elected to this important office, and if
he had been permitted to serve his en-
tire tcrm'he would on the 6th of March,
1899, have wmpleterfhis eighteenth year
in the senate. He had declined a re-
election more than a. year ago on .ac-
count of his health,- 6 Hon. H. D.
Money has been cho ' .88 his successor
'for the term beginning b.1399. ,
A‘Great Constltnuonsl lawyer.
Senator George was well liked in the
senate, notwithstanding a rather
brusdue manner. Those» who knew him
realized fully that beneath the outward
crust was hidden in. kindly'and gentle
disposition. He was also universally
respected for his great erudition on
questions.
Probably there has been no man in the
senate during the present generation
who had -madegrea.terresea.rch into con-
stitutiona] questions or could discourse
more profoundly upon that instru-
ment of government. Very few con-
stitutional questions ever arose in the
senate that he did not participate at
length in their discussion, and he talked
on comparatively few other topics.
Mr. George was ranking Democratic
member of the_,committee on agricul-
ture, and he served as the chairman of
» that committee in the Fifty-third con-
gress, but he devoted more of his time
to the affairs of the committee on the
judiciary. of which he was a. member,
though holding a. less prominent place
there.- He had taken especial interest
in the preparation of the substitute for
the bankruptcy bill, providing for vol-
untary instead of involuntary bank-
ruptcy, and had been expected to par-
ticipate actively in the consideration of
the bill in the senate. .

LEADERS STILL CONFIDENT.
Batchford Says the Fight Is In a. Better
Condition Today ,Than It Ever
“has—Gompers and Sovereign
\Vorking \Vith Him.
Pittsburg, Aug. 16.—For the next few
days the eyes of the industrial world
will be turned toward. Pittsburg. The
greatest anxiety will prevail until the
injunction proceedings against the
marching miners are finally concluded.
That there is much interest in the sit-
uation is evidenced by the presence here
of a number of the foremost labor lead—
ers in the. country. Michael D. Ratch-
ford. national president of the United »
Mine Workers of America; Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, and James‘ R. Sov-
ereign, general master workman of the
Knights of Labor, arrived here yester-
day and will remain a few days. While
they are here they will be kept busy.
They" came from West Virginia, and ,.
were brown and enthusiastic. Batch.-
ford seemed to be well pleased with the "
outlook, and in an interview said: “The
fight is in a better condition today than
it ever was. The men are as solid is
a. rock, while they are increasing in
number and determination. They are
growing stronger every day, and there
are more organizers among them than
there have been. We have reached the
point where we are very much curtail-
ing the output and where we haVe the
courts to fight. ‘ .-
“In this connection, I‘wish to say for
every man that is incarcerated there
will be 100 friends gained for the cause.
We have not come here to defy the
courts or judges, but discharge a plain
duty, as we know and understand it. If
it would be a crime to talk to men of
the benefits of trades unionism and call
them together in peaceful assemblage.
we are surely ready to meet the issue.
“There was a. feeling among some (‘1’
the miners, both of this state and West
~Virginia, that their officers would de-
sert them when injunctions were en-
countered. You can say for me that the
officers will stand by the faith and this
great cause until the last. We have en-
tered into this contest to win, and if we
fail to do so it will be because the min-
ers"thcmselves have not taken our ad-
vice. I do not anticipate this, however,
for I am sanguine of victory if the min-
ers conduct themselves as they have in
the recent past.”
May March to Get Arrested.
‘President Samuel Gompers expressed
a hopeful View of ‘the situation in West
Virginia. He said there was some coal
being produced in certain sections, ’but
the~supply was being gradually cut off.
He claimed there was general sympathy
for the cause in the mountain state
and maintains that fully 13:000 of the-
20,000 diggers of that state have joined
‘the suspension. .
A series of meetings to be addressed
by the labor leaders will be arranged.
Ratchford, Gompers and Sovereign ad—
dressed a big meeting at Camp Isola-
tion at Plum Creek.
In case the injunction is continued it
is altogether probable that some of the
men may march in order to get arrest-
ed. The reason for holding off. is said
to be due to the fact that the men hope
be quashed. In
case they win the strikers say they will
camp right where they are and march
every morning until the strike is won.
The camp commissaries are well stock-
ed with provisions, and so far as the
material man is concerned the strikers
will not suffer.
No move will be made by the sheriff
toward raiding the camps until after
the hearing. If the injunction is con-
tinued, he says the‘camps will be bro-
ken up in short order.
The Bunola mine, near Elizabeth, is
closed down again. Twelve arrests of
strikers for disorderly conduct was
made yesterday and eight the day be—
fore. The men were brought to Pitt;-
burg and lodged in jail in default of
bail. The strikers made no resistance
when arrested. The managers of the
Bunola mine are somewhat discouraged
over their futile attempts to resume op-
erations. ~ ‘ r
In Illinois.
Marion, 1115., Aug. 16.—'I'be marching
miners failed to get the men who are
working here to join the strikers and,
have gone to Centerville, the mines at
which place having the largest output
of any in southern Illinois. The march-
ers expect re-enforcernents at Center-
ville, and a big meeting will be held
tomorrow. The sheriff has sworn in a
number of deputies and declares the
men here and at Centerville will be
protected if they'want to work.
The \Vest Virginia Campaign.
Charleston, W. Va.., Aug. lit—The
campaign for effecting a. general strike
in the Kanawha field has closed. Dil—
cher, Weber and other strikers have left
for the New river field. It looks now like
the strike would soon be at an end in
the Kanawha valley. The coal diggers
at Winifrede held a meeting and decid-
ed by a large majority—147 to 56-40 re—
turn to work. tThere were about 200
present at the meeting.
Rejected the Proposition
Brazil. Ind., Aug. 16.—The miners of
this district have unanimously decided
to reject the proposition of the Jack-
son Coal and Mining company and oth-
er operators to pay 80 cents a ton for
coal to run local plants.
