St. Petersburg, Aug.. 27.—The "Red
Leaders". are abroad In Russia. The
official world la panic-stricken, but It
It much more probable, according to
competent observers, that their panic
will talte the direction of bloody re
prlsals rather than - the granting of
concessions.
The bold assassination of General
Min, commander of the Semlvosky reg
iment, by a young girl, In the presence
of his wife and children, the futile at
tempts on the life of General Kaulbars
at Odessa, which failed only by an ac
cident; the discovery of the terrorists
with bombs In the grounds of the czar's
palace, evidently Intent on carrying out
the death sentence against his majesty,
all following close on the heels of the
dreadful occurrence at the palace of
Prime Minister Stolypln, Is all elo
quent evidence that the campaign of
assassination Is In progress and that
the threats of the terrorists are being
carried out In deadly earnest.
Wldezprsad Plot Found.' ;
Premier Stolypln Is In strict retire
ment for'• the present, but he Is said
to have urged the czar to rezlzt the
demand of the reactionaries, headed by
the grand dukes, for a military dicta,
torshlp. It Is urged that the former
program be put Into effect as the only
eljerngtlve' for civil war and worse
outrages.
His two children who were wounded
are progressing favorably. The young
woman, who killed General Min .de
clares she killed him for hls many bru
tal acts towards the people.
It la stated today that the police
have discovered In the papers of the
perpetrators of the Stolypln massacre
evidence! of a widespread plot.
An attempt was made today to as
rasslnate General Staalon, common
tlant of t^e Imperial palace at peter-
hof. A man who'commlted suicide at
the Hotel St. Petersburg, left a letter
saying he had killed himself because

Special to The Georgian.
Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 27.—The pri
mary for nomination of state officers In
Alabama Is on today.
The campaign for governor has not
been a* hot In this state as It was In
Georgia, but one of the same Issues Is
Involved—the regulation of railroad
rates. Both Cunningham and Comer
favor this, but Comer championed It
before the people first, when he ran for
president of the railroad commission,
and was elected by an overwhelming
majority. All Indications point to a
decisive victory for Mr. Comer. A very
lively Interest Is manifested and a good
vote being polled.
Indications are that the following
state ticket will be nominated:
Alternate United States Senators—
Joseph F. Johnston, of Birmingham,
and John B. Knox, of Anniston.
Governor—B. B. Comer, of Blrmlng-
h< IJeutennnt Governor—Henry B. Oray,
r.anUnoed
Several of the slaughter house men
of Atlanta will unite their forces and
fight the new meat inspection ordl
nance which will come up befdre coun
ell next Monday, for passage. The fight
will be commenced at the meeting of
the special Investigating committee
which holds Joint session with the
board of health Tuesday afternoon at
$ o'clock.
Up until the present time there has
been but little opposition to the ordl
nance. The retail butchers of Atlanta
asked that eeveral portions of the or'
dlnance be changed. These requests,
made In writing, wfre submitted to the
comnjlttee, and were followed so far
os practicable. The reason for the
light against the ordinance Is believed
to bo that the slaughter house men
think a central abattoir, such as will be
bujit If the ordinance Is passed, will In
Jure'the business of the abattoirs now
In existence. However^ It Is the general
opinion that a 'central abattoir will
be the best possible thin* for the cat
tie Industry, not only |n Georgia, but
throughout the South and will make
Atlanta the - Chicago as welt as the
New' York of the South.
Wide public Intereet that has been
aroused by the Investigation brought
about by The Georgian, and the de
termination, as a consequence of the
findings of the special committee, Wal
ter A; Taylor, chairman, to have pure
wholesome meats In the future, will, It
Is believed, Sweep before It any oppo
sition which might be thrown In the
way.
The central abattoir Is proposed to
be not only bo the most complete plant
of the kind In the South, so far as In
terior arrangements are concerned, but
III have a stock yard large enough
to accommodate any number of anl
mats. The enterprise Is backed by W.
H. While, Jr., formerly Southern man
ager for the Swift Company; J. J. Mc
Lendon, also at one time a manager
for the same company; R. L. Walker
and the 8. C. Wllkerson & Bros. Gro-
eery Company, as well as a number of
Atlanta capitalists.
The matter of selecting a proper site
for the abattoir and stock yards Is
still In the embryo. Several places
near the river have been gone over and
are under consideration. The final de
cision will be made soon after the pass
age of the qrdlnance.
In speaking of the company and what
it Intends to do, Mr. White etated that
the nominal sum charged for the
slaughter of animals and the small re
frigerating fee. also to be regulated by
the city council, will encourage the
farmers around this section of the
country to raise cattle and will bring
cattle from all portions of the South
to Atlanta, which will be used as a dls.
1.4 fe I. \fe IVhltVa Ka.
trlbutlng point. It Is Mr. White's be
lief that the superior railroad facilities
will also greatly aid In building up the
cattle business ln the South and that
the abattoir will be another feather In
Atlanta's cap.
Nat Even 8trict Enough,
if anything," said Mr. White, "the
ordinance Is not strict enough. The
stricter the better It will suit us, for
without the most rigid regulations we
can not hope to get the confidence of
the people and cope successfully with
the Western meats."
Chairman Taylor, of the special com
mittee which has carried on the work
of Investigating and of drafting the
ordinance, Is receiving letters dally
from prominent citizens asking that
the work be pushed to a successful con
clusion. Some of these communica
tions follow: (
FROM RANDOLPH ROSE.
Dr. Walter T. Taylor, Candler Building,
City:
Dear Walter—Tour proposed meat
ordinance Is a good one. I am anxious
to see this ordinance passed. You are
certainly doing good work In council.
With kind regards and best wishes, 1
remain, yours very truly,
RANDOLPH ROSE.
Aug. 25, 1908.
FROM HARRY SILVERMAN.
Dr. Walter A. Taylor, Atlanta:
My Dear Sir—I am Informed that
some efforts are to- be made before
your committee which will seek to dis
courage your measure before council
to regulate ^he slaughter houses In At-
r.nntinued on Psae Two.

SUPT. GARRITY

Savannah, Ga., Aug. 27.—Superin
tendent Garlty, of the scavenger de

an Investigation. The principal charge
waa lending money at usurious rates

Could Secure No Explana
tion as to Reason
For the Action.
Edward K. Van Winkle, the young
Atlantap who recently went to Baku,
Russia, for the purpose of Installing
elaborate machinery ln oil welle and
oil refineries there, was deported from
the country In a mysterious manner
about two weeks ago.
He was served with papers, through
the British ambassador, which ordered
him to leave the country Immediately,
The ordere came from the Russian
government. They said the govern
ment would not be responsible for his
life at the end of It hours.
No explanation as to the action was
afforded. Such Inquiries as Mr. Van
Winkle desired to make were cut short
by Russian taciturnity and red tape.
It Is supposed that the orders came
from the bureaucracy.
Mr. Van .Winkle got together hls
things, left hta business ln the best
shape possible and departed for Paris.'
He was registered at the Paris bureau
of the New York Herald last week,
now on the ocean returning
home.
Mr. Van Winkle Is a member of the
Van Winkle Machine Company, of At
lanta, and Is ono of the beet known
young mon ln tha southern technical
He was called to Baku June 1 to In
stall machinery of modern type In the
oil refineries of that section of south

taken several months.
ALLEGED LYNCHERS
TO BE ARRAIGNED
BEFORE SUSPECTS
By Private Leaned Wire.
Salisbury, N. C., Aug. 27.—Rowan
special court convened today with
Judge Ferguson on the bench. There
are several homicide cases In addition
the remaining three negroes ac
cused of the murder of the Lyerly
family, and the lynchere now under In
dictment. When the trial of these peo-
pie began, six negroes were charged
with the crime. The mab hanged
three of these and the ofilcers took
the othere to Charlotte for safe keep
ing. Judge Long, on the day of the
lynching, said If there was any attempt
at violence, he would stop the proceed
ings against the murderers and fight
It out with the lynchers If It takes all
the summer.
Six were arrested. The grand Jury
Ignored the bills against three and ont
was convicted and sentenced to the
penitentiary Wednesday, and put on
trial for hls life. He Is supposed to
have taken actual part In the hanging
of the negroes. Other Indictments In
