Miss Bertha Doud Mack attracted a very much larger uudlence at the St. Nicholas skating i.nk Tuesday night than was present at her Initial per formance in Atlanta. Miss Mack dis played her Versatility by executing a number of stunts which she had not performed Monday night. One of the features of last night’s performance was her graceful rendition of a Spanish fandango to a comet ac companiment. A special matinee will be given Wed nesday afternoon ct & o’clock. Miss Mack will bo seen all this week, after which time she goes to New York for the opening of "The Parisian Model."

Shortly after 11 o'clock Wednesday morning the contractors In charge of the reconstruction work In the Geor gia yards, at the foot of Alabama street, exploded an unusually large charge of dynamite along the base of a concrete wall. This wall formed part of the foundation of the temporary shed which the road used during the erec tion of the new building, which Is crossed by the (’olllns street viaduct. Owing to the fact that the charge was so great, and that the material against which It wan placed was hard as rock, the foreman for the contractors, Mr. 8. E. Wire, compelled the draymen in the yard and all the expressmen there to leave, and notified the railroad company that It would he safer to have the clerks leave the new building, as he feared the force of the' explosion might shatter thqf glass and cut some of the men at work there. As a consequence, the drivers all had their teams at the entrance to the yard promptly at 11 o’clock, and the railroad clerks came running out of the new building. Everybody congregated In what he or she deemed a safe place, yet where the fireworks could be seen. The result was that more people came, and then otherfr.-and then some more, so that when the fuse was lighted there probably were 1,000 people there, and more came running up after the explo. slon. Although the number of Injured or killed was placed as high as forty by the rumors that spread rapidly, not a man was hurt, and while the wall was crumpled like an eggshell, the debris was not thrown over three feet away from It. "That shows that excellent Judgment was used by the engineer," said an en gineer who hurried to the place os aoon as he heard a number of people had been killed there. Mr. Wire simply took proper pre caution In warning the men near there to get out of the vicinity. Anybody who uses dynamite will tell you that Its force Is something no one can ea- tlmate—a stick will do twice the work this afternoon that It would yester day."

Chamberlin-JohnsQn-DuBose Co. JUDSON CLEMENTS TAKES ISSUE WITH CHAIRMAN KNAPP Washington. Sept. 18.—Judson C. Clements, of Georgia, a member of the Interstate commerce commission, takes Issue with Chairman Martin A. Knapp, who, In an Interview In Chicago Mon day, declared that the Sherman anti trust Jaw, In Its application to rail roads and tho Interstate commerce act, was utterly Inconsistent. Chairman Knupp made ft plain also that he believed that the time had come In the management of railroads, when co-operation should supplant competi tion. In commenting upon the observations of the head of the Federal commission, Judge Clements said: "Without discussing the advisability of permitting carriers to enter Into cer. tain agreements which are now sup< posed to be forbidden by the anti-trust net, I have never yet been able to see why the carriers enn not obey both tho Interstate commerce act and the antl- tiust act, or the necessity they arc ul leged to be under, that to comply with the one they must violate the other. The anti-pooling provision of the In terstate commerce act Is In perfect ac cord with the purposes and principles ot the anti-trust act. If Publio Was Assured. If the public could at all times be assured of Just, reasonable and non' discriminatory rates there Would, of course, be no necessity for either ot these acts as applied to the carriers. Neither could there, In such a cose, be objection to combination, so often des ignated by the milder term of 'co-op cration.' "The experience of the world does not prove that It Is safe to construct inws upon the theory that no harm will come to the consumers of any article because of the pacific co-operation be tween the' producers of the same hereby competllton among themselves Is destroyed or limited. "The people who manage railroads are not essentially different In their nature from other classes of people. They desire to make all they can out of the business. Just aa other people do In their lines of business. What they can get when competition Is eliminated may be more than Is Just and reason able. "Hence, there 1* necessity for main taining. as far as possible, the natural taws ot commerce and business In their full vigor as a preventive of unjust and. unreasonable rates, for It will never be possible for any public tribunal to cor rect on the spot Immediately all unjust rates which may be put Into effect, especially under a system of combina tion where competition Is eliminated. Rely Upon Natural Laws. It Is better that the public ahould be able to rely, as far as possible, upon natural law* of trade, unrestricted, for protection against cxt.irtlon rather than to be at all times dependent alone upon the action of any governmental tribunal which of necessity. In every case, must take the time necessary to hear con- troveriea before It can decide them. Prevention I* better than cure." In discussing the proposal ot Presi dent Roosevelt and Chairman Knapp that "pooling" be legalised, thus ex cepting railroads from the application of the anti-trust act. Judge Clements said: "I do not believe In anything else un der another name, which Is equivalent to It." Judge Clements' attention was called to a report that the commission would not reduce basic rate* and that a* a rulo a conservative enforcement of tho railroad rate act would prevail. ment aa to what the commission will do respecting basic rates,” he said. "In all controversies pending before It, the commission will proceed under the law, upon full hearing, to determine each case upon Ita merits and moke an order accordingly.” ONLY $1.50 for a season ticket to the Great I.yeenm Coorse, If you buy before Saturday even- BRAIN NERVES WERE SEVERED Russell Vaughn, the elevator boy who was stabbed while at work In Tho Constitution building Friday afternoon by a negro, la in a critical condition at the Orady Hospital.
