Duckworth, head of the Georgia division of the Farmers' Union and a member of the legislative committee of the National Farmers’ Union, has writ ten the secretary of the treasury at Washington. D. C„ asking that he be given the authority to Issue certificates to the amount of $100,000,000, backed by cotton receipts given by bonded warehouses. This step Is asked to aid In the cotton holding movement, and President Duckworth believes that the plan Is perfectly Just nnd reasonable and will materially aid the South In the effort to secure a fair price for Its product. In his letter Mr. Duckworth says: "The Atlanta bankers have issued, what they term, clearing house certifi cates to the amount of $2,000,000. They claim that these certificates are backed by 'gilt-edge security.’ "The Farmers' Union has warehouses throughout the South. The majority of these warehouses are bonded, and I want to ask. for the benefit of the farmers of the South, the permission of your department to Issue certificates, backed by our cotton receipts, given by bonded warehouses, to the amount of $100,000,000, this $100,000,000 to be guaranteed by twice that amount of cotton at present prices; these certifi cates to remain In circulation until Au gust 15, 1908."

Turman, head of the real estate firm of B. B. Turman A Co., who, after an extended Northern and Western trip, accompa nied by his wife, returned to Atlanta Sunday. Mr. Turman was In New York while the excitement was nt Its height, nnd went down to witness the scenes about the big banking houses when the people laid siege. In describing It, Mr. Tur man said: "There were lines of people three blocks long waiting to draw their money out of the banks. For the moat part they were thoae who hod deposited their savings for safe-keeping and hod become alarmed. Few of them were bualness men. They came and brought their camp etool* and waited. The barks were open for only a few hours each day, so eome of them had to wait for several daya In line, and then many never got their money out. Extra* were coming out every minute and each one created a sensation. •'The curb brokers and the brokers In the Consolidated Exchange were simply wild, tearing their hair, screaming nnd knocking each other down.” ' Mr. Turman went from New York to Cincinnati, Chicago. Indianapolis and a number of other Northern cities and on Ills trip combined both business and pleasure. The situation In New York has changed since his visit and tilt runs on the banks are over. The filter question was settled once and probably for all time Monday after, noon when council adopted the report of the committee, recommending the acceptance of the bid of the New York Continental Jewell Filtration Company. The atdermanlc board, at o session railed especially for that purpose, con curred In the action of council Imme diately after council adjourned. The bid of the New York Continental Jewell Filtration Company for a dupli cate of the plant now In operation at the waterworks, with a few modifica tions, was $26,000. The Philadelphia Water Purification Company submitted a modified bid of $24,600 for the In stallation of a plant. Attorney Rosser urged the acceptance of the lotted bid, but council took the position that the difference between the prices would not'Justify that body In accepting the cheaper Wd when the New York filters had given such aplen. did satisfaction for fourteen year*. Mayor Joyner called a meeting of th* nldermanlc board at the conclusion of the session of council and the action of council was concurred In. The ordi nance by Councilman Huddleston rela tive to city officials and members of council and administrative boards was recommitted to the ordinance commit tee for the second time. Ordinance Rs-referrsd. The Georgian disclosed the fact Sat urday that If the ordinance was adopted It would throw a nfiwber of board members and possibly a few council members out of their political offices. Councilman Huddleston stated that It went further than he had Intended, and It was therefore re-referred. T. K. Glenn, representing the Georgia Railway and Electric Company, pro tested against the laying of a new pavement In Broad street, between Mitchell and Peachtree, saying it was not right to assess the company for the laying of new pavement when the old as not worn out. Referred to the streets committee. Alderman Beutell Introduced a reso lution appointing M. L. Petty as agent to condemn the property nt the Inter section of North avenue and Marietta street, which Is necessary for the widening of North avenue. The widen ing of this street Is necessnry for the construction of the proposed under pass. Referred to the finance commit tee. W. H. Preston, clerk to the recorder, was elected recorder pro tern, pursuant to an ordinance adopted nt the previous session creating this office and making him eligible. Publio Comfort*. Councilman Huddleeton Introduced a resolution looking to the erection of a public comfort* building In Atlanta and providing that It be referred to the committee on public buildings and grounds and the committee on public Improvements. It was so referred. Councilman Longlno and Councilman Harman being added to the committee to consider the matter. Councilman Longlno suggested that the site between the Whitehall street viaduct and the Broad street bridge would be a splendid one for a general transfer station for the street car com pany and the public comforts building. This, too, will be considered. Alderman Curtis Introduced a reso lution providing for the donation of a section of the Walker Street school lot to the library board, on which to erect a branch library. Referred to the library* «nd school boards Jointly. CONTEST AT FAIR ' MAY CAUSE SUIT Additional Sporting News FOR FULL PAGE OF SP0RT8 SEE LA8T PAGE.

FI ARE UNEARTHED BY REVENUE SERVICE Distilleries Evading Law Have Been Seized By Government. Richmond. V«., Nor. 5.—Some of the tnouf gigantic frnnds In the history of the In terns! revenue service have been unearth ed In Virginia. North Carolina aiul other Southern states, nnd disclosures. Involving well known distilleries, sre anticipated. The Feilerat authorities estimate the loss In Virginia alone to be J750.000 to $1,000,000 a year, nud they say the circumventing of the laws has been going on for eighteen months or more. The loss In collections In other states Is said to approximate the nroouut of taxes evaded In the Old Do minion. It la underatoofl that Commission er John Cl. Capers Is personally conducting the investigation, nnd this la borne out by the fact that David Hates, chief of special agents, with Jiendqusrters at Washington, has made several visits to this city ana and particularly since whisky legislation compelled many whisky manufacturers to mbve across the line from North Carolina. Statistics are said to show that only four states—Illinois. Kentucky. Ohio and Indiana —exceed Virginia's production of distilled spirits. There has been double massing, na excess of spirits over that which la per mitted, nnd an unlawful amount of material used, G.

Mrs. Victoria Virginia Clayton, of Eufaula, who has been the guest dur ing the week of Mr. snd Mrs. John C. Pugh, says The Birmingham Age-Her aid. It one of the most distinguished women of the South. She Is the widow of the late General Henry D. Clayton, whose brilliant services In the Confed erate army are recorded In all true histories of that period. Hie subse quent career ss president of the Uni versity of Alabama marked the clone of life of eminent public service. Hit widow, now living quietly in the old Clayton home at the far end of beau tiful Eufaula street, hae drawn about her for many years the affectionate in terest of hundreds of mends. She Is the typical gentlewoman of the old and aristocratic South. A type of the Southern woman who wee muei Intimately a part or the old South, a part of Ite proud traditions, and of Its brilliant life, Mrs. Clayton, like hun ts of her contemporaries, became, too, a part of the changed South, lived rough the period of Its history thst ft a seared page, but through the changing years she haa clung to those traditions, and of the changed South she has written with fidelity, her ar ticles and a book published some years ago giving to the world a fadeless pic ture of the old regime. .Ml*. Clayton ti the mother of Rep resentative Henry D. Clayton, of Ala bama, and she also had another son In ' congress. Representative Bertram Clayton, of New York. Sho la a sister of Mrs. Pugh, the widow of Senator Pugh. In a series of articles which appeared In Modern Women, the'following sketch of Mrs. Clayton waa recently publlshed: Mrs. Clayton is a remarkable woman, remarkable mother, a remarkable cltlsen and withal a writer of note. In these days, when the sons of ths very rich seem to run to either wants or to run riot, she can point to a fami ly which would do honor to any mother and by her own account sho raised them to be the men and women they are. Two of her sona are In congress now—one from New York and another from Alabama One daughter Is the wife of a prominent physician of Mem phis, Tenn., and her other children are an honor to the etate and to her. Her maiden name waa Hunter, and i she was born Id the Carolina*, but her parent* were lured farther South by the wealth In the cotton growing states and settled In what Is now Alabama. | They were of Scotch-Engllsh ancestry. Her father Joined the army which helped to chase the Indians into In- , dlan Territory, and waa Identified with other pioneer movements In tho stats of Alabama. When young Mies Hunter was sent to a school In Montpelier under the su pervision of Bishop Stsphsn Elliott. A young law studsnt came to Eu faula to study In the courts there, and . hearing of the excellent traits of Miss : Hunter, eatd: "She will make a good wife. I must get acquainted with her." She esteems It a great honor that she had two sons In the United States congrtu at the aame time. In her old age she wrote the book, “White and Black Under the Old Regime.” She now lives with one of her sons at. Eufaula. WOMAN’8 CROWN OF BEAUTY.
