THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN. * It IP AY. SEPTEMBER 1 As straws show the direction of the wind, so do brick and mor tar the direction of a city's growth. Take a trip out Spring, West Peachtree, Peachtree, Juniper, Piedmont and Myrtle Streets, and count the new houses and those building, and the vacant lots, and see where these improvements lead to. It is fashionable to own a home beyond the noise, dirt and smoke of the center of the city. Vacant north-side lots are getting scarce. Attend Tuesday's auction sale of ANSLEY PARK LOTS and buy one at your own price, while you can. No lots in Atlanta offer the same advantages for homes, or the same prospect for rapid en hancement as these. Plats now ready. FORREST & GEORGE ADAIR, ANSLEY BROS., CHAS. M. ROBERTS.

Louisville, Ky. f Sept. 14.—Hen# Watterson In today'* Courier-Journal locks horns with William Jennings Bryan on the railroad ownership ques tion. Under the caption, "Let Us Rea son Together," Mr. Watterson says: "It is greatly to he reffetted that Mr. Bryan could not have se£n his way to taking the political situation as It is, and dealing with It upon existing lines which are sufficiently distinct; that Instead he should have felt himself •inpelled to break substantially new ground In the proposed government ownership of the railways; but every public man has his limitations; each Is answerable to his conscience, and in any event and In the end, Mr. Bryan I* likely to be judged rather by his character than his opinions. "It is his personality which attracts the people. It Is the absence of reserve which makes him interesting. He is already as good as the Democratic nominee for 1908. Long before the assembling of the national convention he will be named by the several states. "We had thought that we might elect Mr. Bryan In his bare feet. He will n»>t have this.

By MANUEL CALVO. Havana, Cuba, Sept. 14.—The revo lution has {alien Into secondary place before the fact that American blue jackets, armed for action and with machine guns, are on the scene. • The bluejackets are camped In the plaza, which faces the palace near the water front. The Denver can be seen from the palace. They have a 3-inch held piece and two Colt machine guns, which can ahoot 300 shots a minute. Under order* from Washington, portion of the men went Aack to the ship, but a heavy legation guard wa* still kept on shore. It will be Impossl ble for the rebels, even if they entered the city, to accomplish anything of Im portance without coming In conflict with the Yankee sailors. They are not likely to do this under any circum stances. Rebels Are in Control. The rebels appear to be In complete control of the provinces of Plnar del Rio, Havana and Santa Clara. A sym pathizer with the revolution, who ap parently Is well Informed, estimates that there are at least 15,000 rebels In the Held In the three provinces. A high government official admits that the situation Is most serious, and adds that the revolutlonfeta have pdt an end to the republic In an Insane spirit of revenge". fie also states that the Hautey Sugar Mill at Santo Domingo, Santa Clara province, has been destroyed by the In surgents, who are about to destroy the famous Constada Sugar Mill, which Is supposed to be valued at 32,000,000. The Hautey mill was owned by Mr. O. Ra- beu, an American of Cuban descent. His son states that the value of the mill was more than 32,000,000 and that $500,000 was spent for machinery this year. Property le Destroyed. Tho Constocla property belongs to on American company. It Is also re ported that Home Guero and the San Oues estates have been destroyed by Guzman and his rebel forces. Since It was stated that Pino Guerra had 8,000 men marching on Havana, this explains tho landing of the ’ Afnerlcans. The government appears to fear Its ability to deal with the situation. Property owners are greatly alarmed. The great question Is how to avoid the wanton destruction of property I revolutionists. Unless the United ! takes over the Administration of af fairs this destruction may continue to a large extent. It Is safe to say that all property owners look to the United States as their only hope of aatvatlon. BEGGING FOR FORGIVENESS MURDERER CONFESSES ALL BEFORE BIG CONVENTION New York.

Commander Colwell subsequently saw President Palma, to horn he communicated the proposals. He said that If President Palma would obtain the consent of the Washington government, he would act In the mat ter.

Commander Col- ell later Informed the emissary of the attitude of the president. Railway Traffic 8tcppsd. The Western railroad, throughout Its whole extent of 125 miles, Is paralyzed.

Lincoln. Nebr., Sept. 14.—In a state ment, which was given out last night, W. J. Bryan replies to the recent pub lic statement of Roger C. Sullivan, Democratic national committeeman from Illinois, who declared that cer tain charges by Mr. Bryan were false. Mr. Bryan says he will not permit the discussion to be lowered to the level of a personal controversy, Mr. Sullivan, he declares, is holding his place In the national committee by unfair means.j , Continuing, the etatement cays: "If Mr. Sullivan disputes the asser tion that. a considerable majority of the delegates to the Springfield con-, ventlon were oppoeed to him, he can fight the question out with the major ity league of llllnole, which will doubt less accommodate him. "As Mr. Bryan has hot asked for a nomination and has not announced that he will be a candidate, he will not sub mit the question whether he should be a candidate to Mr. Sullivan or lo any body of persons less numerous than the members of the Democratic party of the United States. Neither can the question as to whether Mr. Sullivan should be re-elected to the national committee be submitted to the mem bers of a convention already adjourned. “The question > muit be submitted to the Democrats of Illinois when they meet to select delegates to the next national convention, and Mr. Sullivan will not be permitted to dodge the Issue that Is raised against him. He Is of ficially connected with a favor-seek lng, franchise-holding corporation and the question Is whether the Democratic! organization should be paralyzed by the Influence of men whose private In terests make it Impossible for them to be guardians of the public. "Mr. Bryan will urge the Democratic party to put Itself In a posltlonvwhere It ran fight boldly and persistently for the regulation of such corporations as are not monopolistic and for the pre vention of any private monopoly what ever. To this end the organization muht be composed of men who are free set for the public and not tied by, personal Interests to corporations which are seeking favors at the public's ex pense."
