Atlanta Constitution, The (Newspaper) - September 5, 1890, Atlanta, Georgia ATL ANT AI CONSTITU' VOL. XXII ATLANTA, QA., FRIDAY 31I0BOTNO, SEPTEMBER 5, PAGES. PRICE FIVE CENTS. THE GBEAT STENCH J3JT THIS SPEECH OF JSOB Of OUZO. _ THE PENNSYLVANIA MEMBERS MAD, And Senator Quay Is at a Loss to Know Wliat to Force Hill Men Behind Etc., Etc. "WASHINGTON, September Borne avenging Nemesis seems to have ovor- laken the republicans of this infamous con- gress, and the whole structure they have reared is trembling and crashing about their Scandal has followed scandal. Jobbery galore has been uncovered; disgraceful rowdy- ism, vulgarity and oven fist fighting have characterized the proceedings of the house; but it remained for "King Bob" Kennedy, the hero of several disgraceful exhibitions, both In Ohio and Washington, to crown tlio indict- ment the republicans have drawn up against themselves, by denouncing tho chairman of the national committee of his own party as a criminal and a second Judas tho arch-traitor of history, and tl.e betrayer oE the founder of the Christian religion. KKPT OUT OF THE RECORD. Tc is impossible to give an adequate idea of the intense excitement Kennedy's furious out- break of yesterday has caused here. Tho tpt'cch was delivered late last evening, and many representatives did not knoTV of it until they read the published abbtract in the morn- Ing papeis. They rushed eagerly for The Con- grebhional Record, only to timl that he who hid prated so loudly bravery and had im- puted cowardice to had himself shown tho Tthite feather. The speech had been "vwUihcM for re> Jaioii." The lepubUcans of the liouso immediately lesim fighting like Kilkenny cats, as to who onght to shoulder the responsibility of permitting Kennedy's, onslaught. The Quay paiunms surprised that the attack the OhU'an had been made with the full knowl- edge and conhOiit of the rabid pro-force bill men, who were chagrined over the postpone- ment of their pot measure. The assault was directed at Quay, not because he was tho lead- ing "spirit in the movement in the senate which re-suited ui the abandonment of the Eorco bill, but because be was tho most vuncrablo object of attack. THE REAL HESPOVSniLK SENATOR. Senator Aldrich, and not Quay, is the re- sponsible person. Ho saw lhat tho force bill and Uriff could not both pa1--.. ,md inaugurated the scheme to shelve tlie former. Quay merely carried out the details. As a matter of fact, Aldrich is as much the autocrat of the senate, as Reed is of the house-. While McKmley is posing for the farmers and working men, Aldrich is going rijjht ahead, without anj frills, perfecting the tariff bill in the interest of his manufacturing constituents. It is Aldrich, therefore, not Quay, who is tlie belli now. AH the republicans in the house, of course, disclaim any complicity in the Kennedy but it is well known that some of the force bill crowd are covertly elated over the affair, whether they were accessories be- fore the fact or aot. BURROWS IS CENSURED. Representative Burrows, of Michigan, has to bear the brunt of the blame of the Quay partisans. He is the speaker pro tern, in Reed's absence, but claims lie was powerless to call Kennedy to order. He, in turn, censures the republicans who were present for not making the point that Kennedy was transgressing the rules of the house. Nevertheless it ia clearly Trilhin the province of the speaker to call a member "down" for speaking disrespectfully and discourteously of the members of tho othor house. However, since the milk was spilled the vital question presented today to the re- publicans of both branches, and Mr, Quay in particular, was how to best repair the damage. Quay was badly flustered. He didn't know whether to pursue his policy of silence with reference to tho damning charges or not. It would be humiliating to bo smoked oat by a whippersnapper like Kennedy, not to speak of the danger such a course might subject him to. SoiSfcof his friends told him he could not longer afford to maintain silence now that the charges so freely used against him by democratic news- papers, have been adopted by a member of his own. party in the house, and spiead upon the record. His indecision gave rise repeatedly during the afternoon to the rumor that he would make a statement iit the senate. DECIDES UPON PRUDENCE. He finally became convinced, however, that was the better part of valor, and to his supporters in the houso he announced that lie should allow them to fight tlie battle. "I shall personally take no notice of the at- tack of a blackguard and a he said. Some of his brother senators thought a reso- lution should bo passed by the senate, calling tho attention of the house to the infraction of the rules, but no such action can be taken -until the speech is printed officially. And this is what tho Pennsylvania delega- tion will seek to prevent. They declare they make Kennedy smart for his impudence, and all sorts of dire vengeance is threatened. At a consultation early this morning they de- cided to offer a resolution to keep the speech out of The Record, but Representative Bur- rows said he would decline to entertain the resolution. He told thorn, nothing could be done until after the speech was printed. Thereupon they drew up two resolu- tions, one to expungo the speech from The Record, and tlie other imposing a severe censure on Kennedy. These resolutions have been holding at Kennedy's head all day, threatening to introduce and pass them it he -did not come to terms. KENNEDY GEOW5 AFBA13J. Meantime the white elephant of the affair is badly scared at the propositions of the rumpus he has kicked np in tlie ranks of the .grand old party. -He tries to put on a bold front, but it ia evident that, his backbone is gristle and his knees weak. He said this afternoon that the Pennsylvania delegation wasn't the house, and if they wanted to make war on him, there were republicans on his side who Would take a hand, bat his next showed that he is hunting for a hole to -crawl out of. He claims he did not transgress tlie rules of the senate in his reference to Quay. "I only repeated the charges newspapers have said he, "and did not pretend to have any original knowledge of my own." "But how about the charge that Quay sold out the republican party and your reference to him as a second Judas replied the author of all this row, lace lie was met by a Dover delegation. At S'ewmarkot junction, Mr. Hoed shook hands from the roar platform all who could reach him in ten minutes. At Dover he left tho train for a near-by plat- bnn, vherft he and Mr. Lodgo each spoke for if toon minutes or more. Mr. Reed spoke from the car platform at Salmon Falls, S'orlh Berwick, Kemiebuiic and Saco. Ou ar- riving here he received an ovation, and ad- Iressed a large concourse at the Union station- The city hall was crowded this evening with all the people that could flock into it, half an iour before time., Mr. Reed was advertised to speak. When he did appear the audience robe ctt him." EXTRACTS FROM SPKECH. Ho then delivered a carefully prepared speech of some four or five thousand words.

TO FILIBUSTEKIIVG. Two years Mr I e d continued, under tre- caused the battle set in array by free-traders, the republican party triumphed so-signally th it even tho cohorts of fraud were routed, and, after a fow ineffectual struggles to count us out, we had the house by the entail ma- lority ot five, instead of our leal majority of before congress haOa aembled tlie air had been resonant with tue hopes aud threats of tho minority, with declarations th.it they were to rule, in utter disregard of tho will ot the people ot the United States. At the very worst, no measure should pass "which did not lavo the s motion of their high approval. If any man here thinks they reckoned without their host, ;hat they had no foundation on which to build tlieir hopes and threats, he knows little of deep-laid schemes of mrni-y yaars to repiibHcana powerless xvlieneverthey should- get control. For years rulo has been piled upon rule and decisit n upon doc.ibion to render legislation dependent upon the sufferance of the mi- nority. Filibustering lurked in every Jine. The power of obstruction was Iwithout link. You will ask why it was that who most of thu time had a majority should so strengthen tlie minority. If yon will consider ;lie nature of the two parties the cause cannot es- cape vou. The democratic party wants no legis- atiori. It is not charged with the progress of the ivorld. All the southern control the party, ivaut or ask for is to be let alone. When tho repub- ,ican party comes into power it has work to do. It that action can be prevented v.'hat more should tho southern democracy desire. Hence, all their plans, whether in power or oat of power, are centered in obstruction. Now, the of representatives Is not a body quick to do business under any set of rules. Its Urge numbers, and the diverse interests they rep- resent, will always make it slow and cumbersome. But a svBtem which enabled one member to hold the whole house at bay until the going down of the sun, and then to hold it until physical ex- haustion set it Iree, and one-htth to hold it for- ever, was evidently a system which rendered elec- tions and called a halt to civilization it- self. Of what use was it to summon into the field an army ot orators to explain the question of party policy. THE 1IINOKITV HAS NO BIGI1TS. Of what use was it th ata great throng of journ- als set themselves to explain to the people the needs of tlie hour? Ot what use was an election grand culmination of power of citizens, if, after all, nothing could be done without the sane-turn of the beaten party? What statesman ild there be so foolish as to battle for power with the responsibility, when ho could have the same power without the responsibility? What kind oL a fight is that to go into where the victim will be and the powerless? 8avs Foran thou think, O, man, that wo created tha heavens aud the earth, in Are elections a farce, and is the government by tlie people a juggle? Do we Tuarshall our tens of millions to the polls for sport. If there be anything in popular froverament it means that whenever the people liavu elected one party to take control 01 tho or the senate that party shall have bnth power and responsibility. If that is not tho effect, what is the use of the elections? It was with far other ideas of public duty that tlie minority met as at the opening of the session. Not only were no measures to pass which did. not have their approval; but no ru'.es, even of pro- cedure, were to be permitted except those which seemed suitable to the beaten, party. A WORD OR TWO AUOUT RULES, So we began life without any rules. The con- stitution says the Jhouae may determine the rules of its procedure, and docs not say that it must. After two months' time the opposition found that under tno parliamentary law wbicb liad been touilt up by theAnierican people in consonance with their public business was going on every day without their consent, and they oegan to clamor for the very rules they had denounced. I neud not describe to you the scenes of disorder whitrh were preliminary to the establishment of sound business principles 'in the house, It is enougli to say that the good work was the bouse af representatives Sas taken a large strida towards business and the performance "of duty. Will you, my old friends and neighbors, permit just one word which ia purely personal. Any time those lasteifrht months, I have been the sub- ject of much indiscriminate praise and much indis- criminate blame. One is juat as much deserved as tlie othor. Great events do not turn upon one man. The house of representatives was ready and 3 ripe for a change, and the pepple stood ready to -approve. "Wliat all -the .world wonted easy to do. I am, not greitly proud to be speaker of the house, but i am proud, with all my heart, to "be one ot that magnificent majority OL the house of representatives of the fifty-first congress, -which, for nine Itmeftnonths, has never, for one moment, faltered in its doty. When we cleared tho "decks for action there was plenty of worlc to dp, and, we have done it to the full measura of satisfaction, we have achieved all that the republican party promised and more. Most platforms are mtt" glittering generalities, good enough for the campaign, but onr last plat- form lias been treated by the house of representa- tives like a deed of trust. ABOUT THIS ntECTIOIT BILL. air. JReeO. enumerated measures for which the house claimed creditr the administrative customs bill, the tarjjt bili, the silver bill, and then coming to tbe federal election bill, he said: There -was also another promise to he kept, made long ago andoften renewed. For years the republican party had declared, most righteously, that there could not be in the republic a thitj more sacred than tho dnty of upholding the rights of every citizen, to participate in the government. Who has forgotten the words of thatgreatsoldier, 30 soon to lie among the unfbrgotten brave on the lieicfats of Arlington? "The people have made up their minds that they have a government, an honest ballot aixd- a'fidr ,Tha house of representatives, true to its duty, lias passed a bill ivhich, when it becomes a law, 'people or suffrages of nullfone. It will enable votes to cast; and counted as east. fWhat an enormous hubbub bas been raised, abont that simple bill. There bas been nothing like it ainco Walter Scott described the uprising ofthe virtuous people of Alsatla on the approach of the sheriff. "What is this bill on which so many violent epithets have been rained? It is a ple proposition to have United States EURer- rs -to see that United States elections of United States tracers shall be lioaently conducted; that all fa on est votes shall be cast arid honestly counted as cast. If there be any man in the country who opposes "tha bill jhere will not bo many years before he -will look those who proclaim the divine origin of slavery. .That the democrats flow denounce, with ent epithets, a republican measure, is no new In their historv. So persecuted, they, the ts, when Abraham, Lincoln proclaimed that ;tua land should not bo permanently half free and half slave; the democracy of my vonnger declaredfthat he said so because .he wanted lis sister to marry a ncpro. So when the repub- Jgans of our day proclaim that In a republic one million of voters can never be perma- nently disfranchised, the democrat of our day shouts "negro domination" and "bayonets." BTKALJKG DEMOCRATIC SEATS. r. Reed then proceeded with his enumera- tion of the Oklahoma bill, and bills for the admission ot new states, the Conger lard tlie meat inspection bill, the bankruptcy bill, ilfe original package bill, and the Louisiana ;ottery bill. He described the obstacles under which all this work was done, and the waste oftime caused by faction opposition. In this conpection he said: We were forced to spend more tlfne on con- jested elections than any democratic congress, Because tho fraudulent certificates came from the southern states, and we were obliged to consume fclie time of tho house in jrHing those members seats who would have had the certificates in the aoginning had they been fairly treated. So justly Were the democrats treated by tbe retuining dfiicers that not a single republican feat has been Contested. Our IOHS of time from contested ejjfc- iions will not bo less than twenty TOO MUCH TL3IE WASTED. One other tho Joss of time will be a sur- prise, perhnps.'to the community at large. No man would regret more than I to be thought in all proper respect for the dead and all proper reverence lor the departed comrades and Tor the ladings of surviving friends, yet the inethod by which the house shows Its respect and pays its reverence, very costly to the nation. Since the election of tbe present house ten mem- Ijore have died one senator. AmonK them luive been the most famous men of the William D. Kelley, the great champion of protec- tion Saiimel J. Randall, the heart of oak and of iron, the strongest force in half a century, and Samuel SulhvanXox, at oisce brilliant and laborious. we have pairl due reverence, and spoken tho "proper eulogy over these and tueir companions, nofc loss than twenty-one working days wilt hj.ve to be counted. means almost an entire month Ot time. When John Bright died, the English house thought it could best honor his memory by joing on with the business of the country. or IIOLI, CALLS. These losses which 1 have enumerated could not, perhaps, be helped .without greater reforms than Can be hoped for in many years, but'what is about t'o be described could be avoided by either the commonest patriotism or healthy public senti- ment in the house. It ought to be known all over the United States that with members it tikes twenty-five minutes to make a roll call. Our an- cestors when they established in the constitution the provision lor the yeas and nays did not know now fearfully they were wasting the time of un- born generations. Now the sessions of the house two years ago lasted one month and a half loncer than the present session thus for. -During that session, of two years ago, there were'220 roll calls, of which eighty-six were ic- longJilibusteragainst the direct tax bill, leaving but 140, which were seemingly legitimate. I say these HO were seemingly legiti- mate, for I have no doubt that 100 would have fully complied with the demands of the constitu- te v One hundred roll calls would have been for all proper purposes for the wriole of this session, and yet we ha'ti 400. Threo hundred of these have been utterly useless, a mere wanton waste. The legislative day, exclusive of the reading of tho journal, is a scant five hours. Three hundred roll calls, then, mean twent3'-nve legislative days. Think of twenty-five legislative days wasted in the mere useless calling over of names, and all done to time, with public business unfinished. THE "ORHAT" DKKDS OF TUT HOUSE. Hut in closing what I h ive had to say, it wotUd not be just to rest the claims of the bouse upon even a catalogue of its great deeds. What the house has shown the country that any house can do is well worth a prince's ransom. Henceforth a promise cannot be excused except by perform- ance, Henreforth great measures cannot be lost and nobody know has become of them. 1'arty responsibility has bepun, and with it also tae re-pmisibillty off the for they can no longer e'et t a democratic house, and hope that the nri- noritv wiU neutralize their action, or a republican house without beinj; sure that it will keep its pledges. If we have broken the precedents of a hundred years, we have set a. precedence of an- other hundred voars nob'er than the last, wherein responsibility will wait on power, and wherein the people, with the full knowledge that their servants can act, will chose those who will woctb- ily carry out their will. COOPEK. NOT APPEAR, And the Ranm Investigating Committee Adjourned Until Next Monday. WASHINGTON, September special houso committee investigating the charge against Pension Commissioner Ranm met promptly at 10 o'clock this morning and sat for half an hour awaiting the presence of Mr. Cooper. Mr. Lewis, the only democratic mem- ber of the committee in attendance, said that Mr. Cooper would not be present aud as Mr. Goodnight, his colleague, was not in "Wash- ipgtoii he was in an embarassing position and would like the committee to adjourn until Mr. Goodnight returned. The committee showed some impatience at the failure of Mr. Cooper to be Finally an order was made for for Cooper, and also requesting him to be present with his witnesses and evidence next Monday, to which day the committee adjourned. 3HYPXOTI8M. PhyslcIanH Mrs. vVoodivorth's Alleged Power Pernicious. ST. Louis, September physicians have filed compJaint in the probate court for an inquiry as to the sanity of Mrs. Woodwotth, the noted evangelist. Mrs. has been holding .meetings here for several months, and certain members her audience became possessed of what she terms "tho power." Others think the peculiar mania and bodily state is due to hypnotism exerted by Mrs. Woodworth, a.'nd that its effect ia rnost per- nicious. The basis for thfi inquiry liea in the fact that Mrs. Woodworth has stated that while in this state she bas conversed with the diefcy and descended into hades. Five days is gtven her in which to prepare for the trial. FOR A Ihe Probable Result of a Mania for Brown Paper. MQNCTON. New Brunswick, September 4, Etta .Simpson, aged seventeen years, went to sleep" a "week ago Sunday, and has not yefe awakened or taken any nourishment. Miss Simpson has for some months had a mania for eating brown paper, and would consume a large bag, sach 'as used in grocery storesat a single meal. She has eaten scores of brown, paper bags, and it is supposed this mania has something to do with her illness. About a year ago she slept for. five days, bnt was awakened while being bled by her medical attendants. i Tlie Injury to RALEIGH, N. C., September Theinjury to cotton by the rain is becoming great. Farmers who arrived here today from Johnston, an Important cotton-growine county, says an extensive reduction of the expected crop will result. The rains of August hart the crop which "was forming during the earlier part ot that month, and that rust, which attacked the cotton earlier than usual, has badly affected the top crop. -The -same state- ment applies to nearly all this section, and while the crop will be far larger than the last one, yet it trill fall below the Julyand August estimates, "which were that it would be the best crop ever grown. -The 'crop is opening very freely-and-win lie picked HUffTIM FOB EUBE. JtKTECrXVEB AJfO BLOODHOUNDS OUT OF THE NOTORIOUS TRAIN ROBBER. A. that He "Was Seen In Blilton, Causes Great Parties in Search of Him. JACKSONVILLE, Fla.f September Pen- sacola special to The Times-Union says the Plomaton train robbery has produced intense excitement here. Kube Burrow was reported to have been seen at Milton, twenty miles east of this city, yesterday, and at 2 o'clock a special train, with Superintendent Fisher, Route Agent Arnold, several express company detectives, and a posse of deputy sheriffs from Alabama, under Sheriff McMillan, passed through this city for Milton. Deputy Sheriff Tom Cusache, of this county, joined the party hero with a posse of six men. Patrolman "Wilson, of the police force of this city, with a posse of six men, left here yesterday and is coming down tbe Escambia river from Bluff Springs n a boat, and several parties with bloodhounds are scouring tho country from the scene of the robbery down the river to the swamp. Detect- ives and deputy sheriffs, who passed through the city today, had with them five blood- iiounds, and if Rube Burrow is in Florida it is thought he will be captured by tomorrow night. It is certain beyond any possible doubt now that it was he who. committed the robbery, assisted, it is thought, by the noted desperado of Santa Rosa county, Burrell Mar- tin. STEINEK BROUGHT BACK. 'Ward. Politics Koiued a Once Prominent Merchant. Ala., September Steiner, late treasurer of the Montgomery fire department, and charged with embezzling the funds of the department. was brought to this city last night, having been arrested by detectives at JHalletsvillo, Tex. Steiner left the city mysteriously not Suite a year ago. When his defalcation was iscovered, his bondsmen, who made good the shortage, offered a reward of S200 for his ar- rest. Steiner was formerly one of the most prosperous aud successful merchants of Mont- gomery. SWUNG TO A LIMB. A Negro Brute Taken from Custody by a JVIoli and Hanged. EW ORLEANS, September 4. "Water Valley, special says Last night a negro, named Rogers, decoyed Airs. Murray from her home on the pretense of helping to rescue her husband from roughs, whom Rogers said were ill-treating him in a lonely part of town and assaulted her, bruising her badly. TUe negro xi as arrested later, but was taken from custody by a mob and banged to a tree. Mr. and Mrs. Murray are from Iowa and have lived hero two years. A Colored Desperado Arrested. BIRMINGHAM, Ala., September 4. [Special.] Henry Willingham, the worst negro desperado in the state, was captured here today by a deputy sheriff. He resisted arrest and was shot twice, one of the wounds being a very erioua one, which may prove fatal. wanted in Shelby county, f or murder, and in Talladega, Ala., Joran attempt to ururderiiis wife. He has also committed a number of small crimes in other places. And Xow Neither Slay Get the Clrl.' SAN AXTONIO, September 4. Infor mation has reached here of a desperate duel, which was fought near SanJAuguslino. Fred Clark and Julius Jones, two young cowboys, became enamored with the same girl, and re- solved to settle the matter by fighting a duel with shotguns. The event came 6ft and Jones received a load of buckshot in his bowels, kill- ing him. Clark was arrested. No Arrests Have Been Made. SAN ANTONIO, Tex., September 4. [Spe- cial.] James Krinier, a young man, went to the home ot Samuel Johnson, a prominent fanner of Falls county, this morning, and as- saulted Johnson as a result of some old grudge two. Johnson drew a and shot his assailant, billing him. Ko arrest lias yet been made. _____________ THE STRIKE. The Blockade Eaised, But Attempts to Wrecli Trains Are BcSdg Hade. ALBANY, N. Y., September Car Accountant Ewinga, of the New York Central road, was in the city today. Ho said tho blockade which had existed in this vicinity, was effectually raised, and that everything was now running smoothly on the Mohawk and Hudson River divisions. PinKerton says that there are still 400 of his men stationed at points between here and Schencctady. The men will be kept on patrol duty until the strike is declared off. The strikers who have not returned to work, and who are occupying tbe railroad company's houses, have been notified to vacate within thirty days. There are about one-third of the number of men usually employed now at work in tbe "West Albany shops. Each, day iinds a few ofthe returning to work in the shops. ATTEltrr TO WRECK CABS. Superintendent Bissell said tonight that a dastardly attempt to wreck a port'on of a freight train was made this afternoon at the Van Wert street crossing, in this city. As tbe train was proceeding west at this point somebody succeeded in parting the couplings of the second rear car from the rest of the train. The two cars thus separated gainedspeed as they rolled down tho hill at this point. Afl theV passed through the upper part of the yards, "a brakeman observed them and suc- ceeded in hoarding- them as they rolled on the tipper railroad bridge and stopped them within 100 feet of the open draw. The draw had been opened to allow the passage of one of the Tracy boats, which was just passing through when the cars were brought-to a standstill. Had the run- aways continued on, they would have plunged down on a vessel which was freighted with human lives. Superintendent Bissell says the company had as yet obtained no clue to the partv who parted the coupling. UNEASINESS ABOUT A TRAIN. The train from New York, due here at p. m., had not been heard from since it left Hudson on time. It ia now two hours late. No information can be obtained at the station here. Some uneasiness prevails concerning The Strike Virtually Ended. CHICAGO, September 300 and 4GO men of the striking carpenters returned to work today, and the strike is practically at an end. Various questions are mooted, however, among the strikers. In some quarters, how- ever, it is hinted that the non-union men will be persuaded to join the nnion in order to get better wages, and that tfae fight will be re- sumed within ten days. It ia generally thought, however, that the trouble is over tilJ next spring- when a general walk-out is for.___________ Obstructing the Cars. PTTTSBCBG, Pa.f September special from Wheeling, Va., says: This morning an attempt was made by the company to rnr their electric street cars with men who had taken the places of strikers. One car was stopped aud held for an hour, while hooted and threw stones. Another car started and the same treatment. The lines are now obstructed in hundreds of places with trees, stones, boxes, railroad ties, etc., and any at tempt to ran cars will cause UguUfe A NEW SCHEME Wbteli Is to be of Benefit to Kentucky's Boom Town. CHATTAKOOGA, Tenn., September 4 H. Arnold, of The Middles- borough News, is in the city looking after the interest of the proposed railroad from Chatta- nooga to that point. The road, Mr. Arnold" believes, will be built. It has no connection with either tlio Louisville and Nashville off the Western and systems, but is an independent line. Tire general purpose is tc extend the line from Middlesborough north- ward and connect with Hmittngton's Chesa- peak ami Ohio. Tha route will lead ia s. direct line from Chattanooga to Kingstonr and then follow tlie course of tho Clinch rivez to a point thss side of the mountains from Miadlesboroug-L, The greut difficulty hitherto :n tlie way was ia getting through Cumberland Gap, the Louisville and Nashville and KnOx- ville roads using the same arid1 the projectors of the Chattanooga line were unable Co make satisfactory arrangements to get through the tunnel.

Sawyer, Wallace Co.. of New York, Make an NKW YORK. September Wallace Co., exporters of breadstuff.s and cotton, and dealers in Jcaf tobacco, at 18 Broadway, mada a general assignment today to Marshall Ayres, without preferences. Tbe assignment was filed shortly before the closing of the county clerk's office and the news, when it reached the street, created a groat sensation. Tho cause it, losses the tirui has sustained in their foreign option business. The firm bas branches in nineteen, or twenty European cities. In the pork deal last January the firm is said to have sustained losses of Claims for losses against European speculators arc among the nominal assets. It is estimated that the sum total of the nomi- nal absests will reach among which was included lost m the pork deal. It is believed that they have protected their interests in this country, and that their ch.ol losses, which may reach will be in London, and mainly on their porit dealings. But their business has many ramilications. MOUNTAINS OF SILVEK, Wliicli Enrich Several Virginia Capi- talists. control one-half of the capital stock of tho company jiibt formed to develop the ore about th.rty-five miles from Seattle, Wiiali., which are reported to be the richest in the 'u orlil.

A some point during the day, I'm going to post a thread in one of the forums with details on the prize. To win the prize, all you have to do is be 1 of the first 25 members to reply with the comment, "It's an ehMazing Day!" 1 of the 25 member's names will be chosen by random draw for that prize!
It's that simple! :clap:
So keep checking back at ehMac.ca. You never know when it's going to be an ehMazing Day.
It's an ehMazing Day - Test!!
It's an ehMazing Day
Yep, you're good. :)
Third Test is a charm?
So is this starting today?

I truly hope this works out for you guys, good luck!
Whenever we die, i ampretty sure that all of us willgo to heaven !! This is taking too long !!!
KYVADER, i mentioned you not getting any response from Gary in email, I sent it yesterday, Ill let you know
I thank you. I really hope he contacts me. i sent an email yesterday too. Ill just have to wait and see good luck to us all, i hope this can be resolved for all of us and put behind us.
i still have not heard anything but i am not surprised i do want to thank all those that asked him to contact me on my behalf. This community is truly special we do all stick together
I think that this is too much for me......
He has changed his profile pic on Facebook, ...please check this out !!!
Gary Marcus Chaboya | Facebook
I contacted that face book profile about ten minutes ago and he wrote back that he had no idea what i was talking about and that i had the wrong guy. Again i feel like i am getting played somehow. I just want this to be over with and that these stupid games would stop.
Mee too!!! I want my money back...or my items shipped !!!!!
For you guys living in the US, it should be easier to contact the Police and the FBI.
Please do so!!!!!!
If there is any cost of lawyers or detectives or whatever, i will be glad to give a part of it just tomaking pay for what he is doing to all of us !!!
In Spain we say that he is laughing in our faces !!!!!
have contacted them nothing has happened and this man continues to play us for fools
Boba would have already claimed a bounty on this fool
Hello again guys,
As i told you before, for me it is more difficult to talk directly to the FBI or the local police dept. Please give them a call....
Also, i could transfer 50 or 100 us dollars to any of your accounts, so i f all of us do the same, we could pay a lawyer so we can all sue him together. I bet you that if he receives a letter from a Californian lawyer.... he will react in a different way.
Please do so....
Thanks Foxbatkllr!!!!
i will take a look and let you know. But i guess that we should add the legal cost of the money since the payment.....
Should we also sue him and claim damages?
What could happen to him if he is guilty?
Will the law protect me ven if i am from another country?
Guys, I am pretty sure you are chasing a ghost. This guy used Gary Chaboya's information to establish an ebay account because he could not get one due to his activity. This guy had Gary as a part time employee and thus stole his info. This guy has 4 kids and a wife. I am pretty sure that if you sweet talk Gary and tell him what is going on, then he will tell you who the guy really is. Think about it and trust my info. PM me and I will give you my phone number if you want to discuss it deeper and more detailed. Look at his hand in the picture. Its the hand of a forty somthing man and not a twenty something boy. You need to research with Gary on facebook.
BTW MY 1000th POST!!!! YEAH BABY!!! I'm finally not a NUB!!!
Last edited by Boomer Fett; Oct 14, 2010 at 11:34 AM.
Congratulations for your 1000th post!!!
And about the info... thanks !!
he told me so once, then i told him that if he was acting as someone else, we could sue him also for that.....
Wee need to solve this at once !! Come on guys !!!
Last edited by Madrid Boba; Oct 14, 2010 at 12:48 PM.
Do any of you really think he will make good? Stop saying you want to sue him and just do it already.
Of course i want to do it woodman, but like i said, we have to do it all together.......
I lost $109.99 to this joker, if that helps. I hate getting played and that is what's happening to us all. I am tired of it.
I lost more than 25o US Dollars.....
im 300$ in the hole
Another 300 from me....
I will update the list with all you guys and all the quantities. Please give me your name and total ammount. We need to know the ammount (total) because the lawyer needs to know it
By the way, someone should contact the real Gary Chavoya, and tell him that someones is using his name in order to rip off people. He could also join us in order to sue him !!!
Last edited by Madrid Boba; Oct 20, 2010 at 1:20 PM.
I have already tried that he has not responded in over a week, makes me think that it is the one we are dealing with. Guys i am not trying to be cynical but this guy is playing us all and laughing about it. I'm not cynical just experienced.

Boaters Alert
British Waterways (BW) appears to be going ahead with local mooring strategies in other areas which it defines as "hotspots" before the pilot local mooring strategy on the Kennet and Avon Canal has even been drawn up and implemented. As far as we know, these areas are the Lee and Stort, Birmingham, the Macclesfield Canal and the Southern Grand Union.
Boat dwellers, also known as "continuous cruisers", are another part of the Travelling community who suffer from being moved on by the authorities, namely British Waterways (now Canal River Trust).
Read British Waterways 2004 Mooring Guidance for Continuous Cruisers. Read the advice to Continuous Cruisers in light of the Mooring Guidance, by Kennet and Avon Boating Community. To find out more about the legislation that covers the waterways visit the Canal River Trust (the new name for British Waterways) website: https://canalrivertrust.org.uk.
There are also a number of support groups offering advice and support for continuous cruisers who are experiencing difficulties due to the lifestyle:

Leather Grades
The Coja collection offers 5 grades of leathers in many colours, it's easy to make a selection for any décor, taste, budget and lifestyle. Coja only uses top and full grain leathers. No splits (the under layers of the hide), bi-casts or bonded leathers are used in producing our furniture.
Grade 1
These offer a strong finish. Highly resistant to dirt and liquids, sunlight and wear and tear, this leather is easy to keep clean, and is excellent for families with children and pets.
Grade 2
These are top grain leathers finished with fine pigments. These medium weight leathers provide a medium grain for a great hand and look. The protected leathers in this series are easy to keep clean and are excellent for families with children and pets.
Grade 3
Most of the grade 3 leathers are full grain, non corrected leathers, finished with fine pigments which leave a smooth and silky finish for a superb feel. These leathers have a protection coat applied and are easy to keep clean.
Grade 4
A large collection of fine contemporary and traditional full grain leathers. With a slight micro pigmentation these hides show their natural characteristics. An extensive collection of distressed pull up leather is also included in this collection. Pull up leathers are finished with oils and waxes and provide the leather with a unique rustic look. This collection has a superb feel.
Grade 5
European raw material, these leathers are a collection of the finest full grain leathers available in the market place. These leathers are supple to the hand and their natural marking are pronounced and add to the leather's inherent beauty.

| Hotel in Florence historic center near the Duomo and the Florence train Station
The Hotel Boccaccio can be found in the heart of the historic city centre, in an area between the River Arno and the Church of Santa Maria Novella, a stone's throw from the railway station, from Piazza Duomo and from the Church of San Lorenzo. This enviable position makes it possible to enjoy, within just a few minutes walk, the romantic atmosphere of the Ponte Vecchio, the works of art contained in the Galleria degli Uffizi and the treasures of the Galleria dell'Accademia. Alongside the palaces and monuments one can find artisan workshops, small cafes and prestigious boutiques along the elegant Florentine streets. Their products, today just as in the past, have rendered the name of Florence and Italy famous throughout the entire world.
Print the map with the directions to reach us
Whether arriving from the North or South, the most advisable motorway exit is Florence-Scandicci (A1): at the exit follow the indications for the town centre. Then follow the indications for the central railway station. From the station turn into Via Santa Caterina da Siena, the Hotel will appear in front of you. The hotel is found in an area which is easily accessible by car. Our staff will be happy to see to the parking of your vehicle in a near-by and safe garage with which we have an agreement.
Arriving at the central station of S. Maria Novella, the hotel can be reached easily on foot in 5 minutes; descending from the train, just exit the station to the right, cross the pedestrian crossing, turn left and proceed along Via S. Caterina da Siena; the Hotel will appear in front of you.
The Hotel is just a few kilometres from the airport and can be reached by taxi or by shuttle bus with destination for the central station of S. Maria Novella or the SITA bus station (the last stops in Via S. Caterina Da Siena, right in front of our hotel.) It is possible to book a transfer service from/to the airport on request.

Coordination, Thyroid, and Obesity
Byron J. Richards, Board Certified Clinical Nutritionist
Early impairment of nerve-related function1 is a clear risk for developing later-life obesity, so concludes new research published in the British Journal of Medicine. This finding is significant because it shows that early developmental problems with nerves have a wide-ranging impact on health – and obesity is one clear consequence. The researchers felt such changes could be caused by social (stress) or environmental factors (exposure to toxins like cigarette smoke).
I would like to point out that other new research has identified that clumsiness is a clear first indicator of poor thyroid function, as brain signals that stimulate the thyroid gland to produce thyroid hormone also work in other regions of your brain to facilitate coordination.

Roberts Wesleyan Wins 1st Wendy's Title Since 2001-02
The Roberts Wesleyan Women's Basketball team earned their first Wendy's College Classic title since the 2001-02 season by defeating SUNY Geneseo 44-41 this evening.
The title is the first for head coach Bob Segave after having reached the championship game four times in the last five years. For the program, this season's title marks the third time the team has won the tournament.
Interestingly, in the 2001-02 victory, Roberts Wesleyan defeated Geneseo by a score of 71-61.
In a game that saw both teams shoot poorly from the field, senior forward Chelsea Sanders earned the double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds. The Wendy's College Classis MVP finished the three-game tournament with 50 points, averaging 16.6 points per game while picking up a double-doubles in the semifinal and final.
Junior forward Marissa Sell was honored by being named to the All-Classic Team after finishing the game with an astounding 18 rebounds. Sell also scored eight points in the winning effort.
The 18 rebounds by Sell is just four shy of the Wendy's individual game record of 22 rebounds, set by Roberts Wesleyan's Candy Day in the 1994 tournament.
Both teams shot under 30% as Geneseo had a slight edge with a 28.8% field goal percentage compared to Roberts Wesleyan's 25.8%.
The difference in the game could be the free-throw shooting as the Redhawks went 7 of 12 at the line as the Knights were 3 of 6.
Roberts Wesleyan also scored 16 points off of turnovers compared to Geneseo's seven points.
The win improves Roberts Wesleyan's overall record to 5-1 as they resume East Coast Conference action. The team visits New York Institute of Technology on Saturday, Dec. 14 for a 1pm game before traveling to LIU Post the following day at 1:30pm.

WATSONVILLE >> When William Brewer traveled along the Pajaro Valley coast in the 19th century, the surveyor with the U.S. Geological Survey described birds flying in flocks so immense they were "like clouds," others of such enormity that he found feathers on the ground more than 2 feet long. He wrote of seeing the tracks of grizzlies prowling around a whale stranded on the beach.
"More species could be collected in one mile of that coast than in a hundred miles of the Atlantic Coast," Brewer announced in his 1860 book, "Up and Down California."
Supporting that diverse wildlife, which, according to Watsonville Wetlands Watch biologist Jonathan Pilch, included herds of tule elk, was a vast system of wetlands that stretched well into the heart of what is now Watsonville.
It's a landscape hard to imagine, much of it paved over or farmed today, and, even then, fast disappearing as pioneers moved into the area to seek agricultural gold in its rich soils.
The remnants have been transformed from seasonal ponds and marshes in the flood plain of the Pajaro River to what Pilch described as essentially a series of shallow lakes. While much of what's left has been protected and restoration efforts are underway, there's no going back.
"We're trying to do the best job we can with what we have now, said Pilch, who guides restoration efforts for the nonprofit in partnership with the city of Watsonville and other governmental and private agencies.
Reclaimed land
For more than a century, the wetlands were looked upon as wasted space.
By the late 1880s, Chinese laborers were clearing the native willows and tule from sloughs and planting berries and vegetables under what were known as reclamation leases, historian Sandy Lydon wrote in "Chinese Gold: The Chinese in the Monterey Bay Region." The practice proved profitable.
"When the reclamation leases expired, landowners rarely renewed them on a long-term basis with the Chinese farmers, preferring instead to follow the example of the Chinese and grow berries or vegetables themselves," Lydon wrote.
Pilch quoted from a 1892 Register Pajaronian article about a drainage ditch being dug in the Harkins Slough area that's indicative of the thinking of the day, and indeed for most of the next century, and not only in Watsonville but throughout the country.
"When this branch ditch is opened a fine body of land will be wrested from the swamp and will be soon ready for cultivation," the report said.
By 1931, a Stanford graduate student wrote that Watsonville Slough was typical of the region: "In the center a ditch with a luxuriant swamp vegetation along its edges; on either side fields of lettuce, onions, celery or bulbs."
Shifting ground
In the past 25 years since Watsonville Wetlands Watch was founded to preserve and protect 800 acres of freshwater wetlands, the third largest such system in California from urban development, attitudes have shifted. Once adversaries over development issues, the advocacy group and the city are more often partners, recently obtaining a $225,000 state grant, for example, to create trails and restore habitat. Watsonville leaders describe the wetlands as a city gem, and residents turn out by the hundreds to volunteer for cleanup and restoration work.
"The politics have changed," said Councilman Lowell Hurst, who first served in city government in the 1990s as debates raged over urban growth. "It's a whole new awareness that has developed over open space and wetlands restoration for everything from pollution control to the joy of outdoor recreation and walking."
Meanwhile, a peat mining operation in Harkins Slough ended in 2002, and, in accordance with their permit, the owners turned the property over to the state Fish and Wildlife, Pilch said. That was a first step toward conservation. Others have followed, including the acquisition of nearly 500 acres in and around sloughs west of Highway 1 by the Land Trust of Santa Cruz County.
Restoring wetlands
Pilch said delving into the past helps guide restoration. The 1930s Stanford study, for example, provides a detailed inventory of plant life, including an orchid not seen today but which can be replanted.
But the wetlands of today aren't those of the past, and restoration efforts have to take into account current conditions and work to enhance the resources that are available.
Invasive and predatory fish, likely stocked at some point by eager anglers, swim in sloughs where endangered red-legged frogs once spawned, for example. As a food source, the fish have attracted bald eagles and osprey to the area. This summer, a bald eagle pair fledged a chick, the first time the species successfully reproduced in Santa Cruz County in decades, if not longer. But the fish in turn feed on frogs and their young.
Encouraging the endangered frogs required a change of tactics that is showing promise, Pilch said.
"We focused our efforts on building seasonal ponds outside the slough system," he said.
The wetlands aren't just about wildlife, Pilch said. Besides the beauty, they offer flood protection, groundwater recharge, recreational opportunities, even the chance to cash in on ecotourism. The city is host to an annual fall birding festival, a tribute to the thousands of migratory birds that stop at the sloughs to rest and refuel during long journeys.
Pilch said the future must guide restoration efforts as much as the past.
"We have to envision what it's going to look like in 100 years," he said, "and figure out how do we lay the foundation for that."

Then we had about a three hour border cross to get through which consisted mainly of us waiting in a huge line outside in the blistering heat with our big packs and the only saving grace was a tarp over our heads to keep the sun from beating down directly on us. Just horrible.
After the long wait we were herdered to a small minibus and they packed it full...with us being the unlucky two that had to sit in the two half sized seats in the back by the bags (all the way back to Bangkok!!).
When we arrived at Bangkok we still had a 4 or 5 hour wait for our night bus which we got through by playing a very long couple games of rummy, thank god for cards!!
The night bus south was a LOT worse than the one from Chiang Mai to Bangkok. There were more seats which meant less leg room and we ended up between two seats of guys, the ones in front of us jamming their seats all the way down and into our legs (and if they didn't think they had it all the way down they would ram it up and back down into our legs again), and the ones behind us putting their knees up into the seats and pushing on the backs so a) we couldn't quite lay our seats back and b) we could feel every small movement of there legs digging into our backs.
Just great fun!!!

Finding my place
What is my kind of place? It's a place where I can go outside every day, where I can walk out my front door and wander into the mountains, to quiet places where I can listen to streams gurgle down narrow gulches and watch wild animals sprint across open meadows. It's a place that sometimes pummels me with drenching rains and stiff winds. It's a place with steep roads to climb and narrow trails to ride, and enough of both that every day has potential for new challenge and discovery. It's a place where I can find solitude, and also enjoy time with friends. It's a place where I can take photos I appreciate and have experiences I cherish. There are of course a lot more attributes that might make a place absolutely perfect for me, but these aspects are the basics, the aspects I need to be happy.
I went for a bike ride today. It was a low-key, "short" ride, because I am still in downtime mode. Even though I've only lived in California for just over a month, I've already scoped out my comfort places — the places I seek sometimes to challenge my physical limits, and other times to spin easy and think. But even in this secondary mode, I can still plan a two-hour ride that includes 2,700 feet of gut-busting climbing, strenuous enough that my "time to think" thoughts soon dissolve into gasps and whimpers. Today I rode to Black Mountain. At the top of the climb, I met up with a small group of mountain bikers who tempted me onto the singletrack. We descended into the green rolling hills on a narrow ribbon of trail, dipping, weaving and grinning like children. After several hundred feet, the jolting on my bruised arm and knee became too pronounced and painful to continue riding downhill. I waved goodbye to the mountain bikers and turned back up the trail, back to spinning smooth and climbing — my favorite mode of travel.
Back at the top of the mountain, I startled a large herd of deer. I stopped as they darted away and listened to the strange zipping sound of dozens of hooves tearing through the grass. Just as the sounds of the stampede faded, I heard other, even more eerie sounds ringing out from the crest of the next hill. Low moans and yips preceded a long, drawn out howl. I squinted into the low sun and realized there was a pack of coyotes prowling the ridge. I could see their slender bodies silhouetted against the golden evening sunlight.
I stood there a while longer, listening to their yipping and smiling at the sun. I have found my kind of place in a lot of places, but I honestly never dreamed I'd find one here.

Where to locate???
Im still writing my business plan and we have come with two different options to premesis.
Bearing in mind that we are opening an outdoor store offering clothing and equipment where would be ideal to locate?
I am going to pitch the location to the bank to see what they would think with regards to price, value for money and passing traffic / people but was also wondering what the forum thinks. :-)
Option 1)
A main street shopping centre unit that also faces on to main street in a busy town with about 90,000 people in a 15 mile radius.
Size 1530 sq feet. Brand new.
Price £38,000 a year
Limited or nearly no parking on Saturdays or busy days.
Option 2)
A business unit 2 miles from above on the outskirts of above town but on route to a major city. Population is same as above.
Size 1000 sq feet
Price: £7000 a year.
Loads of parking.
Hi Michael,
I go to a large outdoor store located just outside Wakefield. It has parking but its so busy at weekends theres still not enough at times.
Its a big warehouse type building, I cant imagine going to a shop on a main street, the bigger building means they stock a much larger range.
Its about 40 mins drive from where I live and I would rather do that then fight in the centre and possibly come away with nothing!!
It's a difficult question to answer - however, you may want to consider the types of businesses currently located in either location. Do they complement what you do in terms of attracting the right type of customers? Is there any existing competition?
Hope this helps
I personally if could get the finance would go for the Town centre.
1. You are going to get a large amount of passing trade.
2. You will be easy to find
3. 90,000 walking pass means that a lot of people will see your shop and tell a friend about it if trying to find outdoor gear or if they need it themselfs.
4. Its a large floor so you have the ability to provide larger range of goods
5. There maybe limited parking but what busy shopping centre area has parking on saturdays, so this is not to much of a worry.
6. The price uearly price is high, do you think you can recover this + taking into account your staffing costs and general overheads?
As for the business unit, what do you mean? is it a large retail park or a small business industrial like unit?
1. The price is a whole lot lower so therefore may be easier to recover your costs
2. Population is the same + you have a wider potential customer area as its on the route to a large city.
3. You have a lot of parking which means for larger outdoor equipment, which a lot is large would be easier than carrying it around town.
4. You have a smaller area meaning you cannot sell as large range of products.
5. You may not get as much passing trade which may mean people will only visit your shop when they actually need something. Less chance of impulse buyers.
Overall I would personally go for the shopping centre area store.
Hi Guys thanks for the replies.
The business unit outta town is just a lot of smallish unit setups for small business use provided by Enterprise NI. They are just like large garages. There is not really anything else like this other than a few computer shops, trade and manufacturing companies.
Inside the town centre the shop unit would receive alot of window shopping / passers by. THere is no competition in each area in this town. Nearest competition is about 15 miles away at present.
By the sound of that, I'd go with the town centre location.
The town i live (Bridgend) sounds like a similar sized place. We have two outdoor type shops. one is Millet's, and occupies a small-medium sized shop in the town centre. The other is Countrywide, which is on the edge of an industrial estate about a mile out.
They're both busy, but Countrywide have a large warehouse type shop that is properly fitted out for retail. There are a lot of small retailers on the industrial estate with these garage type units, but most of them don't seem to do much call-in trade. The only one I've been to is a computer shop, which is always empty. Most seem to be online businesses.
Now the thing worrying me is the price of the town centre unit. I'll have to find out what lease it is as well so I won't be tied in for x amount of years if things don't go according to plan.
It could work out very expensive and the banks may not favour this idea.
Say for a retail unit of this size (1530 sq feet), what would be the costs in fitting it out? I imagine it is still just an empty shell so would need everything.
Hi Michael,
You would have a lot more money for stock if you went for option 2 which means you have more potential for making a return for your investment.
If you do go for an out of town option make sure that it looks like a retail environment. You get a lot of developments that are offered as shops or offices -can be a bit off-putting for customers sometimes.

text: PROJECT LOVEDThe current Project L.O.V.E.D. program began in November of 2008. The program partners humane society dogs with adult inmates from the Wyoming Honor Conservation Camp near Newcastle. We currently have eight dogs enrolled in the program. Each dog is assigned a primary and secondary handler. The dog lives with the primary handler in their room. We believe this basic training (housebroken, crate trained, sit, stay, heel, loose lead walking, down, place, hup, come on recall, finish, stand and touch) makes the dogs more appealing to potential adopters and helps ease the transition for the dog between shelter life and life in a new home. All the dogs in the program are currently available for adoption, but new owners will have to wait until they have completed their training before taking them home. Dogs that are currently in the program or recently graduated, are listed on our website under the title PROJECT LOVED. All of the PROJECT LOVED dogs are spayed or neutered and are up to date on shots before entering the program. Their adoption fee is $75. Transport to other Wyoming communities or surrounding states can sometimes be arranged. Please keep in mind that an application and home check is required prior to adopting one of these wonderful dogs. We are excited to announce that we are now working with the Wyoming Women's Center in Lusk with Project Pen Pals. The women handlers will be teaching their dogs the same basics as the men. So keep an eye out for the dogs that are completing that program.

Game Blog | Box Score | Season Stats
Associated Press
COLUMBIA, S.C. -- After the 40 minutes of sloppy basketball and the media interviews, Tennessee coach Pat Summitt could finally smile when she started signing autographs.
Before that, it was scowls and icy stares as No. 5 Tennessee stumbled its way to a 60-55 win over South Carolina on Sunday, its 38th straight win over the Gamecocks.
The Lady Vols (19-1, 7-1 SEC) fell behind 13-0 and never led until 7:53 was left in the game. Their three best scorers -- Angie Bjorklund, Glory Johnson and Shekinna Stricklen -- combined for just 19 points, 22 below their combined average this season.
"This team has to make up its mind if it's going to be a 40-minute team all the time," said Summitt, whose team finally kicked in during the last five minutes of the game.
The Lady Vols trailed 54-52 before Kelley Cain got consecutive layups to take a two-point lead with 1:57 to go.
The Gamecocks (11-10, 4-5) had their chances down the stretch. La'Keisha Sutton missed two free throws with 1:20 to go that could have tied it, and South Carolina would miss its final six shots and turn the ball over twice in the final four minutes, squandering the team's best chance to beat the Lady Vols in 30 years.
"We don't want to live on the edge like this," Summitt said.
Freshman Kamiko Williams led SEC-leading Tennessee with a career-high 17 points. Alyssia Brewer added 13 and Cain had 10.
After watching her perimeter game struggle for the first 30 minutes, Summitt decided to go to the paint. Brewer's short jumper gave the Lady Vols their first lead at 47-46, and Brewer would give Tennessee the lead again on a short jumper with 5:12 to go. Cain's two lay-ups put her team up for good.
It looked like Colonial Life Arena would see its second epic upset in five days for much of Sunday. Tennessee has won every game over South Carolina since January 1980 -- the last 17 wins have been by at least 12 points. But the Gamecocks have already doubled their SEC win total from last year, and coach Dawn Staley insisted they had the talent to beat the Lady Vols.
The Gamecocks showed their confidence from the start. Sutton buried two open 3-pointers and Valerie Nainima added a 3 of her own as the Gamecocks stormed out to a 13-0 lead.
The Lady Vols then cranked up the defense, though, and the Gamecocks scored just five points in the final 10 minutes of the half to hold on to a 26-25 lead at halftime.
The game went back and forth for most of the second half, but South Carolina couldn't get the big play at the end. Down by three, the Gamecocks threw away an inbound pass with 21.8 seconds to go. They made 7 of 16 3-pointers, but Nainima missed two 3s late that could have cut the deficit to two.
"We have a lot of young players who have never been in that position," Staley said. "And sometimes when you can win a game like this, you start thinking instead of just reacting."
Sutton led South Carolina with 19 points, while Nainima scored 16 and Kelsey Bone added 11.
Staley isn't accustomed to losing to anyone. She turned Temple into a winner in her eight years at the school, and already has led the Gamecocks to one more win than last season's 10-18 squad. She reminded her team of its 37-game losing streak against Tennessee during practice before the game, telling them that's the kind of win that can reverse a program's fortunes.
South Carolina has just two winning SEC seasons since joining the league in 1991.
"We were hoping to change that," Sutton said. "We'll probably see them on down the road in the SEC tournament."
Summitt waited until she called her first time-out with her team down 10-0 to remind them of their dominance over South Carolina, Williams said, staring down her team and saying, "We don't want to be the team who loses to them."
And for the 38th time, she was right.

I've been Valentine tagged by Ripley!
I am going to tell you my 5 Valentine wishes, and then tag 5 friends with a p-mail or rosette. They will then write a diary entry and tag 5 friends with a p-mail or rosette, and so on and so on.
1. I wish I could sleep on the couch all day instead of spend the daytime in my kennel (although it is nice there, too).
2. I wish I could have a fresh bone everyday instead of every week.
3. I wish my sister would stop cleaning my ears (OK--I DON'T wish this. I really like it...).
4. I wish I had thumbs so I could be a REAL person.
5. I wish I could go to work with my mom.
I'm tagging:
Big Pappi
I got Tagged by Bubbles AND Ripley!
Here are the rules:
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their Diary the rules & their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose 7 dogs to tag and list their names. Don't forget to bark them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your Diary, or, send them a fun Rosette announcing they've been Tagged!
1. I am a slim 130 pounds.
2. I let my sister clean my ears.
3. I love to have my knee-bows rubbed.
4. I hate the kitties...just the mention of the word sends me into a tizzy!
5. I love to eat pasta! Maybe I am a Swiss-Italian St. Bernard...
6. I love to lounge on the deck in nice weather.
7. I like to keep Mommy's spot warm on the couch, and in the bed, and on her pillow, and...
My seven tags:
1. Gitta (my sister)
2. Butch (my Cougar friend)
3. Lucy
4. Big Pappi (my sister's boyfriend)
5. Chilly
6. Emma (my cousin)
7. Rexy
Well, my sister has done it again. While Daddy was putting his socks on in the mornings, she looked at hims, and squatted, and peed right on my bed. I can't believes it! Mommy and Daddy found me a twin mattress to sleeps on, and I absolutely loves it!!! They got it for $55, which is so much cheapers than a dog bed for a pup of my size (besides, I have been known to eats expensive dog beds). Mommy says that they have to finds me a new one now because we can't haves a pee-pee bed in the house. My sister--she's a lot of troubles, but she sure is fun to plays with. I will gives her a quick rag-doll today while we're playing just to shows her how mad I am, but then I'll gives her a good lick on the nose so she knows that I still loves her. I can't wait to gets my new bed--the floor is too hard for a spoiled boy likes me.

Western Digital (WDC) shares were up more than 5% in Tuesday afternoon trading, a day before the disk drive maker is scheduled to release its Q4 earnings results.
The consensus estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters calls for earnings per share minus items of $1.82, up 20% from the year-earlier quarter but a sharp slowdown from triple-digit growth posted in the previous three quarters. Analysts see revenue jumping 85% to $3.7 billion, the fourth quarter in a row of double-digit growth. The results will be for Western Digital's fiscal second quarter ended Dec. 30.
Shares of rival Seagate Technology (STX) were up 3.5% in afternoon trading Tuesday.
"Both companies have been very vocal regarding maintaining margins and they show no inclination to increase their market share through aggressive pricing," Monika Garg, an analyst with Pacific Crest Securities, wrote in a research note this month. She initiated coverage of both stocks with sector perform, or hold, ratings.
The disk drive industry has consolidated over the decades. Seagate and Western Digital combine for roughly 85% of the global market, which Garg says should lead to increased profit.
When there were more competitors, it was common for makers to overproduce in a bid to gain market share, which often led to excess capacity and severe price cutting.
Seagate is set to report its quarterly results on Monday. This month, Seagate announced some preliminary financial results that included a boost to its revenue expectations but a cautious stance on profit, as IBD reported. The next day shares of Seagate rose 6.6%.
Seagate said that it shipped almost 58 million hard drives in the December quarter, about the same as the prior quarter. Many analysts had expected lower shipments as PC sales struggled due to slower-than-expected Microsoft (MSFT) Windows 8 adoption and sluggish investment in technology due to rough economic conditions.
The disk drive industry still faces some head winds, wrote Garg. PC sales are slow and storage systems that use flash chips threaten to cut into hard-disk-drive sales. But the outlook for storage systems overall remains strong.

This morning, Senator Rand Paul can be seen on C-SPAN filibustering the Brennan nomination and insisting he will do so until President Obama clarifies whether his administration believes the federal government can indeed use drone strikes to kill U.S. citizens on U.S. soil without an act of Congress, as has been suggested.
Senate filibustering isn't all that unusual these days, but the way he's doing it certainly is: i.e., the old fashioned way ... by making a speech and not yielding the floor.
As of the time of this posting, Sen. Paul is closing in on his second straight hour. His remarks thus far have been fairly clear-headed and thoughtful.
