"WASHINGTON, Juno 7. --An important step, and une that it la believed will bean fruit, looking to the establishment of an army post at Natrhvillo was taken today by Senator Leu and Con-firosomtm Byrne. They succeeded in on-listing tho interest of Heorutary of War 1n a visit to Nashville, and on llonday they hope- to liuvo M'ujor-Genornl Irunard Wood accept an invitation tu accompany Secretary Garrison to Nashville for the stnte fair In Beptemlwr. "Becretury Garrison promised he would vitnt Naelwilio Oaring tho state fair if ho could possibly arrange lo leave Washington at that time," enid Senator I-a tonight.

"We expect to see General Wood Monday," Tho immediate object of having th secretary of war and the commanding geenral of the army visit Tennuesee is to afford them ah opportunity to Inspect the large acreage of land near Tiillahonia that has been tendered the government for maneuvering grounds.

C. French will be nominated for postmaster at Memphis. It i believed that his name will be sent to the senate within a week or ton days, and the Tennessee senators will join in an effort to expedite Its confirmation. The name of Major French was first presented to Poa'tninster-General Burleson several weeks ago by Congressman McKellar, with the endoraemen-s of Senators Lea and Shields. After a short delay, the postmaster-general informed the congressmen and subsequently the senators that Major French was too old to Jiold tlie ofiloe.

President Wilson sustained this position and the ortloe was tendered to State Senator Hubert Fisher, who declined to accept it. The senators niyi Mr. McKellar never abandoned the fleht for Major French, however, and on several occasions recently the President has been urged to make an exception to hie "ago limit" in cas of tlio Memphis office. I' has been pointed out that Major French Is the choice of practically all the patroiis of the office, that lie is entirely qualified and thoroughly competent to administer the ofilco with aatls-faction to ail! concerned.

ROBBER CLARKSVTLLE, June Considerable excitement was created In the city last night when a report apread that a desperate robber was barricaded In a stable on College street, was reslHting the entire Clarksvlllo police force, and that blood would probably be dhed before ho could be taken.

and Mrs. Stacker Bratton attended a show last night, driving up town tn buggy. When they returned Mr. Ural-ton went to the lot with his hers nwi on stepping Inside the stable stood face to face with a dangerous looking m.ui, who pointed a large revolver straight, at his head. The stranger did not speak and Mr.

Bratton took his alienee for an order to retire, and he quietly backed out. Remembering that there was no other opening in tho building than the one through whloh he was retreating, and that if he could once get the door closed the man would be his prisoner, Mr. Uraitou decided to take his life in ids hand and rrmlio an attempt to close the door. With every nerve strung to the highest and "hlrf heart pounding HUo a trip hammer, ho did what he felt lllce was tho bruvest thing of his liTo In slamming tho door uloae. and With all his might bracing It with his body.

Calling to bin wife, he told her of the capture, and In an instant an alarm was phoned the police. Instantly therie braves were under full tilt for the scene, and in less time than the fire department could have made the run, they had covered a mile. To Mr. Brntton tne time had bru ages, but the cost was worth the prize, he thought. Tho next thing was to get the nippers on the man.

Busy mlnd went to work to devU-: ways of making the capture without the loss of blood, and too much risk. To fire tho building or drive out with water and hose was nut practical, and before a feasible and safi i)hj was suggested, a real hero volunteered to confront the desperado and demand hie surrender. On entering the barn with a light, this hero discovered that Mr. Bratton and the others were subjects of a huge jolco. What Mr.

Bratton supposed to be a real bad man was only a dummy, posed with a toy pistol In Its hand, which some of his friends had placed there for his benefit.
