F*rlday morning at the Grady Hospital, Mrs. Crutchfield, who was pallid and weak from shock and the lots of blood, made the following statement: ’•‘This attack on-me by my-husband was cruel and entirely unprovoked. I had been to the matinee yesterday af ternoon and was returning home. I had just alighted from a car In front of my house and stepped up on the porch when I heard some one ln the dark ask: 'Is that you. Sally?’ I turned around and saw my hus band with a gun In his hands. As I turned, he raised the gun and fired at me, the shot striking me In both legs. I screamed and fell to the floor and as 1 did so he rushed onto the porch and began to beat me in the head with the butt end of the gun.' 1 think he struck me about five times. My two little boys heard me scream and rushed down stairs. Somebody opened the door and I crawled Into the hallway, where I became unconscious.’’ . Continuing, she said: Had Expected It. "I have been anticipating something like this ever since my marriage. My husband has mistreated me for near ly fourteen years and has threatened to batter out my brains. He Is a bad man and I feared him. I have left him and sued him for divorce three times because of his abuse. The first two suits were withdrawn because of his promises to treat me right and cease his abuse. His promises, how ever, were always broken.” Crutchfield, when asked for a state ment, said: “The wounding of my wife was pure ly an accident. I heard that a certain man, who a year ago wrote my wife a letter advising her to leave me and who has been trying to break up my home ever since, was at her house armed and had threatened to shoot me. I then got my gun and went there for the purpose of getting him. I had no Intention of harming my wife. When she went up on the porch I tried to talk with her and she grabbed the gun, try ing to take It away from me. It was cocked and In the struggle was dis charged. After being wounded, my wife continued to struggle with me. Jerking me to the floor and Injuring herself In the head with the gun. "1 went to the house for the sole purpose of protecting my two children, whlfh I believe I had a right to do.” CRUTCHFIELD WITNESS WHILE UNDER ARRE8T. Crutchfield was under subpoena as a witness In a civil case In the superior court Friday morning and was taken to the court house under guard of Po liceman Doyal. The prisoner went on the witness stand and gave his testi mony without any show of emotion or any Indication of the trouble he was In. After tfstirylng he was returned to the police station.

A large subscription Is being raised and those In charge of the movement expect,to be able to make a much larger bid for the school than was at first expected. “CRUTCHFIELD MISTREATED MOTHER AS WELL AS WIFE,” —MRS. BILLY BEARD. "If my sister dies I will kill Crutchfield. He Is the meanest man I ever saw. I feel templed to kill him anyway." This declaration was made Friday morning by Mrs. "Billy" Beard. Slater of Mrs. Crutchfield and wife of "Billy" Beard, the well-known min strel man and leading comedian with Haverly’a Minstrels. Mrs. Beard resides with Mrs. Crutchfield at 300 South Pryor street. With tears In her eyes and her frame shaking with emotion, Mrs. Beard discussed the shooting of her sister and declared she felt like avenging the shooting of the latter. "Crutchfield Is responsible for the trouble of my sister." she said, "and I feel like killing him. He has been mistreating her for fourteen years and she has been compelled to leave him three different times. It was only a week ago that he came here to the house and pushed his way past me Into his wife’s bed room and I am satisfied It was his Intention then to kill her. She screamed? however, and frightened him away. Not only has he abused his wife, but he has threatened my life and once drew an ax on my mother. His conduct has been .such that he has wrecked the health of my mother. "There was no man here yesterday afternoon and there was no provo cation for the shooting and beating of my sister. Crutchfield Is simply mean and I think he must also be crazy. He acts like IrF' Dixon’s Play Cannot be Presented in Philadelphia.. Philadelphia, Oot. 26.—Judge Sulz berger, In common pleas court yester day refused to grant an Injunction re straining Mayor Weaver from’ interfer ing with the production at the Wal nut Street Theater of "The Clansman,” which the mayor suppressed as the re sult of a protest by negro cltlsens. The court room was densely crowd ed, largely with negroes, who were present to uphold the mayor In his ef forts to suppress the play, which he de clared was engendering race hatred and producing disorder through Its pre sentation. Reads Extraot from Play. An unusual scene in court proceed ings was- presented when City Solicitor Klneey read extracts from "The Clans man,” emphasising those portions that he sought to show The court would nat urally produce a racial feeling that was Inimical to good order., Mr. Kinsey Uls- jllayed considerable histrionic art ln his reading. Dr. Dixon, the author of the play, also was given a like opportunity to read from the text ot the play, and his dramatic talent and elocutionary skill were utilised to emphasise the contrary view to that of Mr. Kinsey. When the author attempted to #X' plain the historic foundation of the ' ly, he was impatiently Interru; ‘ dge Sulzberger with: "What do we care for that? His tory may be as false as a lie Itself Don’t weary us with such matters. You can write a history of Pennsylvania from the records of the penitentiary, but that would not make It correct." Dr. Dixon on 8tand. Dr. Dixon was called to the stand, and explained that he had spent 20 years studying the subject he had dealt with, and had read over 4,000 vol umes treating on the reconstruction period. When Dr. Dixon explained that he had placed the “pith of the play” ln the ecene between Stoneman and Lynch, ln which the latter said he had been given equality, the court asked him how much there was In this "pith,” to which the author replied. "About half a dozen lines.” "Then, In these six lines you give the pith. You have 18,000 words In the play and the other 17,340 don't repre sent the pith,” commented Judfce Sulz berger, with pleasing sarcasm, and he seemed to enjoy his pleasantry. "Leopard Can't Change 8pots.' When the court asked Dr. Dixon If he did not use the name Lynch for one of his characters on account ot Its sim ilarity of "Judge Lynch." Dr. Dixon de nied It, and declared that his purpose was to prevent lynching. When Judge Sulzberger entered Into a discussion as to what solution the author had worked out. Dr. Dixon Interjected: ”1 have not set out the solution In the play. I merely state In my play that the leopard can not change his spots.” BROUGHTON TALKS IN OLDKNQW CASE BEFORECOMMITTEE “As a matter of fact I believe that When I cast my vote for E. L. Jett as captain of police I brought on all this trouble. The mayor didn't like It at all.” Councilman W. L. Oldknow com pleted'his statement to the committee having bis official conduct under In vestigation Friday with those words. The" second session of the committee developed , no more tangible evidence against Mr, Oldknow than did the other session a, week, ago, but this latter conference’ dsveipped nt least more life Harry Bllvermah had a little sklr mlsh with the committee, to whom he refused to give Information concern Ing whom he had heard circulating rumors against Oldknow. These rumors have been circulated by a lot of tnen who were deprived of their licenses and I'don’t pay any at tentlon to the yelping of a lot of hounds,” said he. Rev. Len G. Broughton was called to tell where he got the facts on which he based a sermon delivered just before Ills departure for Europe. Tn tho ser STRIKERS SAY WOODWORKING PLANT TO LOCATE IN MI88I8SIPPI.

JACK80N WANTS WIRES PLACED UNDER GROUND. Special to Tin* Georgian. Jackson,' Miss., Oct. 26.—Alderman Chiles has announced that at the next meeting of the city council he will In troduce an ordinance requiring the tel- j "l 1 egraph and telephone companies of the mon he said that the same crowd which controlled the city when he first came to Atlanta controlled ft now; that some of the city fathers had given up their regular business for the 3300-per-year job of councilman and still "supported their families and wore fine clothes." When asked In regard to $11 this Dr. Broughton said that he had said all that, but that It should possibly not have been said from the pulpit, but ln the council chamber, "where It might posyfbly do some good.” "Where are they getting their living?” he asked When a member of the committee asked the direct question If he knew of any Improper conduct on the part of the councilman. Dr. Broughton sald: "Evldently our standards of proper conduct, differ widely. If a preacher was continually seeking after a 3300- per-year pastorate I would put htih down as either a fool or a boodler. I wouldn't vote for a man who Is con tinually seeking an office which pays as little as a job In the city council. 1 ' Money For Vote. Z. B. Moon, who until he was re cently discharged, was a captain on the Atlanta police force, said that At torney Madison Bell had told him that he (Bell) had paid Oldknow 3100 to secure the election of Uaptaln Jett. Mr. Bell absolutely denied this, but said thpt he was merely talking to Captain Moon on the night of July 4 about cer tain rumors that Oldknow had been paid for his vote. Mr. Oldknow In Ms statement also denied that he had re ceived money for his vote. Other features of Mr. Oldknow's statement In his own behalf showed that the rumors of his alleged miscon duct had already been Investigated In several lodges to which he belongs and he has been cleared there. The committee meets again at 3:30 Friday afternoon, at wMch time It will probably formulate Its report to the council. Building House of Worship. Special to The Georgian. Mesena.

This is the terse statement of a member of the press committee of the striking machinists of the Southern, in regard to the Importation of about . 75 northern men, with whom the South ern hopes to break the strike. "No," continued the striker, "Just os long as they don’t employ any better labor than what they have to take our places, we are satisfied. Those men are not machinists. They know it. The Southern officials. If they don’t al ready know IL -will soon. ’IVe have Just received money from the national union for the first week’s benefit. It’s between $800 and 3900. This will be $7 a week for each man. We will continue to get this amount each week, as long as the strike lasts. The union can continue to pay this amount for years and never feci ths strain. “In addition to this, a number of .At lanta people have contributed to the aid of the strikers. These contributions were entirely voluntary. We are not begging. We have enough money In Ihe union to keep us going, Just as long as the Southern continues to per sist In not granting us an equitable scale of wages.” The men held their usual morning meeting this morning. The pickets on duty around the Southern shops re ported that a number of men, so-called '‘strike-breakers,” have already desert ed the Southern and gone home. Out at the shops men are stationed at each of the entrances for the pur pose nf keeping everybody out except employees. An effort was made by a representative of The Georgian to gnla entrance to the shops and see Just how many men were really at work, and what they were doing, but he was not admitted. It Is slated that there areelghty men. They came In two carloads, one an Wednesday night and one Thursday morning. They were employed by bu reaus, It Is stated, whose business Is to furnish men to break strikes. A Jspsnais Preacher. Rev. Watarn Sdkaktbara, a Japanese minister who has fitted himself for religious work, graduating at Sewanee, and who will soon return to hla native land to work among his people, will occupy the pulpits of two Atlanta churches Sunday. At the morning service at 11 o’clock he will preach at St. Luke Episcopal church and at 7:30 he will conduct the services at St. Phil ip Cathedral.
