ANOTHER GOODWIN FAKE EXPOSED.
What Mr. Walker Says Of One Of His Canards.
The card published by Mr. Good
win purporting to give a statement by
P. M. Moody, to the effect that be went
while In the employ of the city, accom
panied by me, to Chief Joyner’s farm
Atid that he took down wires from
poles In this city and built wire fenc es
for the chief Is a misrepresentation of
the facts.
I have no recollection of ever going
to the farm With Moody.
No wires or any other material be
longing to the city was ever shipped to
Joyner’s farm. 1 know this because I
have been superintendent of lire alarms
for twenty-four years. 1 am further
fully satisfied that no work of any
kind was ever done on that farm at the
expense of the city. To charge the
contrary Is an outrage on n good and
honest man. Respectfully,

FINAL BA TTLE RA GING
IN GEORGIA CAMPAIGN
CandidatesActive and
Final Round-Up
of Voters On.
Special to The Georgian.
Sandersvilie, Ga.. Aug. 20.—The gu
bernatorial race In this county It
seems now will be almost altogether a
race between Hoke Smith and Judge
Russell. Early In the campaign each
of the candidates, Including Nunnaily,
retired, had a respectable following,
with Hoke Smith probably In the lead,
and, at one time, had the election been
held Smith would undoubtedly have
carried the county.
Russell has been making tremen
dous gains. Russell stumped tho
county again only a few weeks ago
and now his supporters freely predict
a Russell victory. The race here will
be clearly between Hoke Smith and
“Plain Dick” Russell.

MACUN G. SHARP NOT
A CITY EMPLOYEE
Thera la prevalent an erroneous im
pression to the effect that Macon C.
Sharp, candidate for county treasurer,
is making his campaign nnd ut the
same time is a city employee.
While Jt Is true he dons a fireman's
uniform, he Is not a member of the
lire department. Mr. Sharp Is not
city enij « yet*. He Is tire inspector for
the Soumeastern Tariff Association,
and running on fiffc own merits.
By virtue of his position Mr. Sharp
has become closely Identified with the
needs of the city and bus a laudable
ambition to serve Ills city and county in
the capacity of a public official. He
has never offered for any political of
fice, consequently ids many friends
deem him the logical candidate, and
are bending every effort to secure hls
election, and they are confident he Is
the winner.
Although Mr. Sharp Is not a politi
cian, he Is making a vigorous cam
paign; in fact, he Is more closely Iden
tified with the laboring people, per
haps, than any other man In the race,
for the reason he was connected with
the Ballard Transfer Company for
years. Previous to that service he
worked In the railroad business for fif
teen years, and nine years In hls pres
ent position as Inspector for the South
eastern Tariff Association.
Mr. Sharp has lived In Atlanta forty
years, la nell and favorably known and
extremely popular with all who know
Elm.

COUNTY IS CONCEDED
TO HOKE SMITH
SIX MEN ARE ARRESTED
CHARGED WITH CONSPIRACY.
Hy Private L<>a*<>d Wire.
Havana, Cuba, Aug. 20.—Suspected
of being in a plot to assassinate Pres
ident Palma, six members of the Lib
eral party, General Carlos Garda Ve-
lex and his brother, Fausto, ex-Cuban
consul at Bremen; ex-Senator Mon-
tenguedo, Colonel Manuel Pledra, chief
of police In the house of representa
tives, and General Knrlque Loynnx del
Castillo, a former congressman from
Puerto Principe province, have been
arrested, charged with conspiracy.
The admlnUtr&t.on ban learned of a
plot to bvertli'.ow tbd goveramor** br
force, nnd It was deemed necessary to
take Into custody the alleged chief
conspirators.
The authorities at Santiago have
ordered the arrest of Juan Gual-
berto Gomez, of Havana, known as the
colored orator and one of the most
Influential Liberal leaders. Gomez ha--
been campaigning lately throughout
Santiago province against the govern
ment. The police of Bantlugo were also
ordered to arrest Demetrlo Castillo.
Gomez and Castillo are charged with
Inciting to outlawry and revolution.
General Knrlque Loynnx del Castillo,
a Radical, who was arrested here, man
aged to make his escape. After hls nr-
ydst he was placed In a carriage In
charge of a lieutenant of police. He
asked that hls brother-in-law, Sennr
Arana, be allowed to accompany him
to bring a change of clothing. This
request was granted.
. While on tho way to the police sta
tion Arana drew a revolver and threat
ened the lieutenant with Instant death
unless he allowed the prisoner to es
cape. Both men then jumped from
the carriage nnd ran. They were not
caught. On President Pnlmn’s order,
tho lieutenant of police was discharged
and arrested.
Colonel Manuel Pledra endeavored
to start a revolution In 1905. He was
captured, hut subsequently pardoned,
and singularly enough remained In the
employ of the government as chief of
police In the house.

The authorities are showing great
activity. AH the customs employees
have been armed and the treasury Is
heavily guarded.
President Palma spent the day at
the palace conferring with the chiefs
of the government. Instructions were
Issued in the rurnles, police and artil
lery. Many seditious proclamations
have been Issued,
The persons Implicated in the con
spiracy ngalnst the government re
ceived money from agents sent abroad,
among whom Is Orestes Ferrara, who
Is now In New York. •
There were two lights yesterday at
San Juan Y Martinez. The rurnles

that tho rebels numbered 2r*o.
‘MEMORIAL ORPHANAGE’-
ORDERED TO BE-PUT
IN BETTER CONDITION
MISS CRIMM’S TESTIMONY
CONCERNING ORPHANAGE
"The rhllilren and Mr*. Harwell are out. They will probably have
a good day and bring In' lota of money, ne they have been out since morn
ing,” was the stater, nt made to Miss Dolly C'rlnttn, who has spent her life
In studying methods of handling charities, and Is at present itead of the
Methodist Settlerr.» it” Home.
Miss Crimm was asked to visit t|te orphanage by Secretary Logan,
of the Associated t'haritles. From her testimony she found that Mrs.
Harwell had been out all the day wlth-abuut sixteen of the children; that
Mrs. Harwell had received absolutely no (raining for the work she is
currying on: that the children were "trained by Our Heavenly Father;’’
that the little ones "jnuft go to the services on the streets to get money;’’
that not much time was given to lessons as the children gave most of
their time to the street meetings, and that thl place was poorly equip
ped, and many other things.
Miss Crimm stated that at the present day and time a life of train
ing was considered necessary for such work and that she could hardly
explain the pathoa of the situation. "The children seem to have abso
lutely no time for pleasures. Their whole time Is given up to these
street meetings, to prayer and to work In the Institution.’’
During this testimony Mrs. Harwell Jumped to her feet and holding
aloft the Bible, declared: "The Are ts burning In my soul. 1 must speak.”
Mr. and Mrs. Harwell
Tried Before the
Recorder. -
Two Forgtd Chocks Patted.
Hpeelnl to The Georgian.
Brunswick, Ga., Aug. ,20.—A young
man who wont under tho name of (\
H. Edwards succeeded In getting two
forged checks for $10 cashed here nnd
escaped.
Kvlfor.ee, In Its trend strongly sue*
gutting that the “Memorial Orphan
age" at 52 and 54 McDaniel street has
been run more for mercenary than
charltablo purposes, was given In the
recorder's court Saturday afternoon
when Mrs. Ida M. Harwell, manager
of the .Institution, her husband, J. R.
Harwell, three of their assistants and
24 children appeared on the charge oi
blocking the public thoroughfares with
out permit and to show cause why the
children should not be placed in a state
institution.
After several hours were taken up In
testimony, Acting Recorder \V\ D. El
lis, Jr., dismissed the first case und
gavo the defendants until September 5
to put the Institution on a mure bust-
ness-Ilkc basis.
City Attorney James L. Mayson con
ducted the defense, city Warded Ev
ans, Probation Officer G.'oer, Miss Dolly
Grimm, head of the Methodist Settle
ment Home; Humane Officer Carnes,
and Secretary Logan, of the Associated
Charities of Georgia, were among the
witnesses.
Le<Lby Mrs. Harwell, who carried In
her hand a largo Bible, the 24 little
tGt*, varying In age from 3 1-2 to 14
years, appeared In the court room
shortly after 3 .o’clock. During the long
and tedious trial tho babies held, for
a time, their eyes wide open, then slow
?y as the strangeness of the scene wore
off climbed alamrd the train for dream
land • where, from the testimony, they
doubtless participated in tho only
pleasures of their Jives. f
The first case culled was that of
blocking the streets. Much testimony
of minor Interest was given and Coun
clim/m Ellis asked Mr. Harwell wheth
er he would promise not to appear
again on tho streets In meeting with
the children until proper permits were
obtained. Mr. Harwel side-stepped this
proposition, claiming that he was only
a manager nnd agent for hls wife, who
was tho real head of the institution.
The judge then attempted to dicker
with ’ the real head of tho Institution."
Rut Mrs. Harwell also side-stepped.
Must Consult the Lord First."

after meditation, during which time the
Inspiration doubtless came to her, she
ontlnued, “l must consult the Lord
about this matter. I would not think

Hls guidance.”

The chief point brought out by tht
defense was that the Institution had
only been running a year and a halt
and In that short time It was Impossi
ble to equip It na well as the state In
stitutions. Mr. Harwell also stated
that Governor Northen and many
prominent business men had signed a
petition recommending the Institution,
fn the first ense Mr. Harwell stated
thnt Mayor Woodward had given ver
bal permission for the street meeting
to J>c held. City Attorney Mayson read
the city code at tht* Juncture, showing
even that. If the mayor had done ho.
this did not make It legal, as the per
mission had to be given by the mayor
and the chairman of the police commit
tee of council.
"The children felt so blessed of the
Lord," stated Mr. Harwell, "that they
felt they must get out and tell the peo
ple about It.” He also stated thnt Of
ficer Oloer had given permission for
the meeting Friday If no child ander
10 year* of age was brought out.
Officer Gloer und i’hlof Jennings, who
overheard the officer's portion of the
conversation over the 'phone, contra
dicted this, They stated that the of
ficer had told Mr. Harwell that the
children would be taken up If brought
out, and then asked him If he did
bring out the children not to bring out
any under 10 years old.
Logan Givss Evidence.
Secretary Logan said that he had
been asked to Inspect the Institution.
For hls testimony he found some thir
teen of the smaller children out In whnt
"as rolled the kindergarten, "a small
room In the yard, where rubbish was
piled In tho corners," under the super
vision of a 13-year-old girl. Many of
the little ones were asleep on the floor.
He found thnt the children had to sleep
three In a bed, and that In one Instance
where there were six boys and girls
fropt the sume family, all slept In the
same room. That babies and those I
their teens all ate the same kind of
food. Thnt the "school room" was In
the cellar and fitted out with several
desks, boxes and broken chairs, lie
said:
"Mrs. Harwell has neither the train
ing nor the Intelligence to carry on
this work. The Institution Is only fit
ting the children In become vagrants.
Under that head I Include most of the
street preachers."

people have given away entirely to
despair, nnd when railway communi
cation Is re-established they will Hock
to Santiago.
The entire business section of the
city is wrecked and flame-swept. In
the lower part of the city, the btuutlful
section built upon land reclaimed from
the bay, Is utterly destroyed and part
ly under water, as the earth’s crust has
sunk. Throughout the city there are
fissures in the ground fifty feet wide
and over a hundred feet deep.
Several Hotels Collapssd.
The strict military patrol makes the
gathering of news extremely difficult.
It is certain, however, thnt nearly every
building in flie city was damaged! Tho
Alemendra! district, where the city’s
best residences were located, suffered
most. The government arsenal, the
naval school, the navy department
buildings, the customs house, the Ho
tel Royal, the buildings of the Chile
ind Tarapaca bank, the newspapers
>iH*trlelo and Mercuiio and the houses
of Ross and Kdwards are known to
have collapsed.
It ts reported that the Hotel Ingles
collapsed, burying the Inmates.
Funds for Suffertrs.
The funds collected through Chile for
the Inauguration of President Monet
will be distributed among the earth
quake sufferers. From Buenos Ayres
coin ok word that the Jockey Club has
headed a subscription for the sufferers
here with a contribution qf 60,009
pesos.
,To rebuild the city will he an enor
mous task. Reconstruction In the low
er city will have to he on a different
plan. So far there Is no talk of-re
construction. Some of the dead are
unburled and the homeless and the
hungry have to be fed.
