It Is expected that Governor Carroll will soon appoint the fifth Judge which the legislature has provided for the Ninth dis trict of Polk county. R. N.

The supreme court disposed of two inter esting matrimonial tangles today. In the case from Lee county involving the estate of the late J. C. Hubtnger, starch maker and millionaire, It appears there was an antenuptial contract when he married a widow which waa intended to keep the estates of the two separate. But after his death the widow placed a claim for S.r0,000 against the estate. Thla claim is not upheld, the court declaring the refer ence to (00,000 being a limitation and not a claim. In a case from Decatur county, one John Moorhead, aged 79, had married a two or three times widow, aged 63, and his daugh ters had him placed under a guardian to protect his property. The supreme court reversesHhls and decide that while the old man might have been Indiscreet hla action In getting married did not show insanity. Supreme Conrt Decisions.

(Continued from First Page.) workings of the magnificent machinery that had been so carefully built up to re spond to just such an emergency. The sec retary of war wa busy winding up Im portant matter of civil administration pre paratory to leaving Washington for sev eral day. II wa able to proceed late in the day for Atlanta. Major General Wood, the chief of staff, came Into town from his Fort Myer home early and wa soon busied with the re port from his aides and from the other members of the general staff showing what progress was 'being made in carrying out mobilisation plana. These appeared to have been laid with perfection, and with the ex. ceptlon of dispatching order to certain companies to take the place of other whose withdrawal to Texas had left some military post without proper caretaker, there wa little to be done. Carter Look After Horse. Major General Carter, who 1 to command the army division in Texas, wa looking after personal correspondence and making sure that his favorite charger would be suitably cared for on the long railroad trip to Texas. Nowhere wa the aupertority of the new state of affair over those that existed In the War department before the days of the Spanish war made more manifest than In the quartermaster's department. Gen eral Aleshlre with hi deputle was engaged in a herculean task he was moving a body of soldier across the country, more numer oua than the entire force which wa gath ered at Tampa, Fla., to form the American army of occupation In yet there ac tually wa no evidence to the casual ob server that there wa In progress anything more than routine buaines. The troops' movements were proceeding with absolute accuracy and up to the close of business today not one telegram had been received by the quartermaster gen eral to complain that anything was miss ing essential to the comfort of the troops onthe animals on the road. All Preparations Made. There was good reason for this, because, a the records of the quartermaster'a de partment show, every detail of the move ment had been worked out with the great est perfection In advance. Lying on the deak of the quartermaster general and In the hands of his aides, were typewritten statements ehowitjg the exact method of routing troops ana auppuca irom tjei part of the I'nlted Htatea to San Antonio, Tex. Every particle or iniormation in might be needed by the department was included. The trunk lines or railroads. the small feeding lines, the water routes, the number of sleeping cars and flat cars and boa care and other vehicles available were carefully catalogued a waa an exact record of the number of men and animals !iiand the tons of supplies that could be "'handled by each carrier. For Instance. It wa snown inai mere were four separate lines of railway Intg .(" Ban Antonio, and the number of ware T I houses with the exact eapaclty of each at 04' Fort Sam Houston was Indicated. It was not afceerted that all this data "!had been prepared since the order had been I given to mobilise the troop in Texaa. but It was pointed otit the same Information (Xlst.d aa to every other point In the I'nlted 8inte where it wss pr.-bahle that there might b need to concentrate a great body of troops. Transports Mnrie Heat. Particular credit attaches to that part of the nuartermister general a department which deals with water transportation. Last Tuesday four of the big army trans ports, the Kllpatrlck. Sumner, Mcliellan and the Meade, were lying In the mud at Newpr.rt News. They had been long out of commission, with but one small crew of caretakers to look after the ships. The captains and a few of the engineer officers were available and were ordered at once to put the first three named ships In com mission. It was not believed that the Meade would be needed at present. Orders were telegraphed to New York to secure crews for the ships. They were rushed to Newport News, the vesstia were docked, cleaned and painted and supplies are now going aboard and they will be ready to embark two full regiments of coast nrtll lery by tomorrow night and to Ball for Gal veston Friday morning. Details of the composition of the full division of troops which will be concen trated at Ban Antonio, under command of Major General Carter were made public by the War department. The division will consist of three brigades of Infantry, a field artillery brigade, a divisional cavalry at tachment, an Independent cavalry brigade and auxiliary troops. Including members of the signal, medical and engineer corps. Composition of Troops. The first infantry brigade will be com posed of the Eleventh, Fifteenth and Eight eenth Infantry, the, second of tins Thir teenth, Twenty-second and Twenty third infantry, and the Third of the Tenth, Sev enteenth and Nineteenth Infantry. The field artillery brigade will be formed by the Third and Fourth field artillery. The divisional cavalry attachment will consist of the Third cavalry, which for the present. It Is announced, will remain on the border. The independent cavalry brigade will be composed of the Ninth and the Eleventh cavalry. The following auxiliary troops have been attached to the division: The Third battalion of engineers, com panies A and D of the Signal corps; four ambulance companies and four field hos pitals. The three brigades will be commanded by Brigadier Generals M. P. Maus, F. A. Smith and Ralph W. Hoyt, while the re maining units of the division will be In charge of colonels, to be selected by Major General Carter. The Signal corps in the field will be commanded by Major George O. Squler, assistant to the chief signal officer of the army. While in the south Major Hquier will incidentally give close attention to the operation of the aeroplanes now operating In that part of the country, studying their value from a military standpoint. In addition to the 2,000 marines which will be concentrated at Guantanamo, Cuba, 500 will be drawn from the barracks along the western coast of the United States and placed on board the armored cruisers of the Paclflo fleet. These vessels will be assembled at San Pedro and San Diego, Cal. The cruiser California, South Dakota and Pennsylvania are' already at San Diego, while the West Virginia and Mary land are at the Puget Sound Navy yard, from which point they will sail for south ern waters within a few days. Major General William H. Carter, who will be in command of the army division now concentrating for the Department of Texas, ha arranged to leave her tonight for Ban Antonio. Tryont for Hew Tactics. After months of study. the general staff has adopted an enHaly pew system of field movement , 'anif tactic. These have been tried in' a small way by the many small units Into which the army I divided, but never before ha there been a proper opportunity to demonstrate the working of the new system on a largo scale. The War department made public a state ment showing the various posts Xrom which the coast artillery companies are being drawn to constitute the three provisional regiment of that arm to be mobilized on the gulf coast. The companies which are In the eaet are to embark at Fort Monroe tonight or tomorrow pn the army trans ports Kilpatrlck, Sumner and McCIellan. The statement show that four companies now at Fort Totten, New Tork, will go to the gulf coast; three from Fort Hamilton, New York; three from Fort Hancock, New Tork; one from Fort Wadsworth. New Tork; two from Fort Du Pont, Delaware; one from Fort Howard, Maryland; one from Fort McHenry, three from Fort Washington, Maryland; five from Fort Monroe, Virginia; three from Fort Moul trie, South Carolina; one from Fort Fre mont, South Carolina; two from Fort Barancas, Florida; three from Fort Mor "I'mflMSMaoae rtag th cut.
