Persia Refused to Dismiss W.

General, as Demanded.
St Petersburg, Dec. 1.—Invasion of
Persia by Russian troops was ordered
this afternoon. Cossacks which have
been held at Resht were ordered to
march on Teheran, the Persian capital.
This is considered an net of war.
News from Teheran that the Persian
national council had rejected the ulti
matum of Russia relative to the dis
missal of W. Morgan Shuster, caused
excitement in official circles when re
reived here today. A number of con
ferences were held, one of the most im
portant being between M. Kokovosoff,
Russian premier, and the British am
bassador. _
It is expected that Russian troops
will advance on Persia within 24 hours,

PERSIA TURNS DOWN
DEMAND8 OF RU88IA
Teheran, Persia, Dec. 1.—Following
riotous demonstration of the populace,
the Persian cabinet met again today
and reversed its decision of yesterday
that Persia should bow to Russia's ulti
matum for the expulsion of W. Morgan
Shuster, the American treasurer gen
ere I of Persia.
By today's action Persia rejected In
full the demands of Russia that Shus
ter be expelled from Persia and the re
habllltatlon of the country’s finances
under tho supervision of the treasurer
general and several other Americans be
stopped.
W. Morgan Shuster had already pre
pared to leave following the cabinet's
decision of yesterday to j'leld to Rus
sia’s ultimatum that Shuster be deposed
and expelled. Mr. Shuster In reviewing
the circumstances which had led up to
this point. Just at the , moment when he
had begun to make headway In the re
habilitation of'Persia’s finances, took
England bitterly to task for not oppos
ing Russia's domination and tyranny
over Persia. N
He declared that never from tha first
hid Russia intended to permit Persia to
rebuild her shattered finances and re
clothe tho government with national
power. i ■ . .
Rioting broke out*as soon as news of
the cabinet's first decision yesterday
reached tho public. As a result of tho
demonstrations a strong guard war
placed over the legation of the Russian,
whose arrogance is hated by the Per
sians.
For a time it looked as tho martial
law would havo to be proclaimed to
prevent serious disorder and bloodshed,

"During the last few days numemus

that the opposition are endeavoring to

Volney Williams, campaign manager for
Pope Brown, on Friday.
"Pope Brown is the leader, and,
course, It Is to the advantage of both
Governor Brown and Judge Russell to
tear down ns much as possible the
Pope Brown support. In .order to do
this they havo adopted the following
scheme:
"In some counties Popo Brown lead
ers have been submitted a proposition
to .fuse with the Joe Brown men In or

counties. On the other hand, In other
counties, the Russell men have made
propositions to fuse with the Popo
Brown men in order to carry theso par
ticular counties against Governor
Brown. These propositions always come
from the enemy, and should not bo con
sidered by tho Pope Brown supporters
in any county.
"Reports from every section of the
state within the last ten days indicato
that beyond any doubt Pope Brown will
earn’ counties that Ills management did
not figure upon at all at the beginning
of tho campaign. In othor words, Popo

J. T. Woodruff, traveling salesman
for tho Woodruff Machinery Company,
reported at Pope Brown headquarter*
that he has Just returned from a two
weeks trip, thru south Georgia. Mr.
Woodruff gavo out the following Inter
view: “Joe Brown and Dick Russell are
running neck and neck: Pope Brown Is
way head of both. Of the counties I
visited on my last trip I am fully satis
fied that Pope Brown-will carry Bum-
tar, Stewart, Early. Turner. Dooly. Pu

Tolbert. I bollevo that Judge Russell
will carry Bulloch county, but also be
lieve that Pope Brown has a fighting
chance. In Statesboro I saw Pope
Brown’s picture In 32 store windows
out of 62 fronts. My observation In
electlons.has been that the state usually
goes tho way the business men In the
smaller cities go.” •

further stated. ”1 have Just finished a

MYSTERIOUS SAM ON JOB;

Look out for "Mysterious Sam!" You

but yourself Is to blame If you are not

Friday afternoon. "Mysterious Sam"
will make his appearance at 5:30 o’clock
at some point in’Whitehall-st. between
the viaduct and Mitchell-at.‘ and will
work In that section until 6:30 o'clock,
placing, with, falry-llke .touch, tickets
to “At'the Mercy of Tiberius'* In’ the
hands and pockets of all who stand
near the curbing reading a current issue
of The Georgian.
Yet,'according to tne Doasi of -mys
terious Sam.” he will distribute his en
tire cargo of tickets—several hundred
in number—without being seen. Can
he do it? It’s up to you.
Tho tickets that "Mysterious Sam"
will distribute will be orchestra seats
to the Monday evening performance of
'At the Mercy of Tiberius" at the
Lyric. They will be to the third of
the series of theater parties The Geor
gian haa given this season. As was
the case at both of tho preceding par
ties, the recipient of the tickets will be
under absolutely no obligation to the
newspaper. It Is Just an'effort of Thq
Georgian to repay the kindness of Its
many friends, anil In placing the tick
ets into the hands of "Mysterious Sara"
a bit. of-fun and-amusement has been
injected;into the distribution.

So great was the success of Augusta

an Glaser had a dramatization made
of "At the Mercy of Tiberius,” another
richer’In dramatic material 'than was

the book. The story of the conviction
of the young girl. Beryl Brentano, for
the murder of her grandfather, her
unrelenting prosectuion by Dunbar, the
lawyer, called Tiberius, his love for
her and his securing her freedom has
been woven into four absorbing acts.
Throughout the piece runs the char
acter of Bertie Brentano, a weak, vacil

misdeeds, which bring misfortune to his

hand of God upon him, make him a
character that will rank with the part

GRAYS HAD FINE TIME
ON SAVANNAH TRIP
HEARING IS HELD FRIDAY
If He Can Convince Council,
Rival Corporation May Get
Atlanta Foothold.
Real competition for Atlanta’s elec
tric lighting and power business will
develop before the council committee
which hns the matter In charge at a
meeting Friday afternoon. W. J. Mas-
see, president of the Central Georgia
Power Company, of Macon, and T. F.
Wickham, vice president, have wired
Chairman John E. McClelland that they:
will be present to offer tho city a flat
wholesale rat© for all Its municipal.
buildings. Preston Arkwright, presi
dent of the Georgia Railway and Elec
tric Company, will be present to uphold
his company’s contract, and to defend
his position, taken at a former meet
ing, that his company could not glv©
the city a wholesale rate for all its
buildings.
Mr. Massee gave out an Interview
in Macon Wednesday in which he said
that City Electrician Turner was right
In demanding that the city he treated
as ono customer, and given a wholesale
rate. This would result In materially
decreasing the cost of electric power
to th© city. But according to the class
ifications of rates of the Georgia Rail
way and Electric Company, each mu
nicipal building Is treated separately,
and the city has 65 different contracts
with the company.
Macon Pay# Mor# Now.
me evidence that many Interest
ing things may be brought out at th«
meeting, Macon la charged more for
electric current than Atlanta. If Mr.
Massee gives Atlanta a wholesale rat©.
It is up to Macon to get equally as
good a proposition.
Macon Is furnished power by the Ma
con Railway, Light and Power Com
pany. controlled by th© Central Geor
gia Power Company. The rate charged
in Macon, as recorded In the railroad
lisslon’s office, i M twelve cents per
att hour, while the rate given
Atlanta Is ten cents. The street light
ing rate« are $75 per annum In Ma
con, nnd $57 In Atlanta. The scale of
both companies Includes many other
rates In the s H me proportion.
Atlanta Overcharged.
In a report to tho committee, Elec
trician Turner charged that Atlanta
was being charged 100 per cent higher
rates for electric current than other
cities, anil he urged that If a new and
satisfactory contract could not be mad©
With tho Georgia Railway and Electric
Company, the city should build u pri
vate plant. He offered as evidence of
the high charge made against tho rlty
a contract for a wholesale flat rat©
which New York city recently secured,
Mr. Arkwright was present at* the for
mer meeting and he sold the railroad
commission would not approve giving
tho city a wholesale rato for all Its
various buildings unless private citi
zens were given similar rates. And
he added that such a rate was iinpr&c-
tlcal.
Mr. Turner says ho has shown th©
2w York contract to Murphy Candler,
chairman of the railroad comrmsalOh,
nnd that Mr. Candler says there is
nothing in that contract that would
conflict with Georgia law. The only
condition under which discrimination
could he charged would be for a nearby
City t-> fall to get equal consideration,
according to Mr- Turner’s version of
Mr. Candler’s statement.
The officials of tho Georgia Hallway
nnd Electric Company aro preparing
data to refute the statements of Mr.
Turner. It Is understood that they will
present evidence to disprove that At
lanta Is charged a higher rate than oth
er cities, and his other contentions will
be denied nnd an effort mude to dis
prove them.
Masse© Offers Compstition.
But the proposition of Mr. Massee is
somewhat unexpected and quite a slg- .
nlficant turn of affairs. Ho askH that
the City give him 1*'> days' time In
which to construct a line to Atlanta and
install his equipment. The city ha* a!- •
ready granted his company a fran
chise.
It Is expected that the city will abide
by the contract with the Georgia Rail
way and Electric Company if the com
pany Insists upon it, tho the city has
the legal right to break the contract at
the end of the year.
"If Mr. Massee submits us a better
proposition." says < ’"iiruliman Aldtn©
Chambers, a member of the commute#*,
"I will favor accepting it. But we
don’t have to accept Jt until the expira
tion of the Georgia Railway and Elec
tric Company's contract, which termi
nates in March, 1913 ”
While the outcome of the meeting Is
uncertain, it is already'a fact that com
petition is now disputing the power of
the Georgia Railway and Electric Com
pany’s long-standing monopoly,
that Is something In* itself.
