Oct. 26.—Mass meetings are being held at every precinct In the county this week for raising subscrip tions for the purpose of securing the agricultural college for the Tenth con gressional district for Hancock county. A large subscription Is being raised and those In charge of the movement expect to be able to make a much, larwr bid for the sch<J,l than was at I first expected. Friday morning at the Grady Hospital, Mrs.. Crutchfield, who was pallid and weak from shock and the loss of blood, made the following'statement; "This attack on mo by my husband was cruel and entirely unprovoked. I had been to the matinee yesterday af ternoon and waa 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 In the dark ask; •"Is that you, Sally V "1 turned around and saw my hus band with a gun In hie hands. As turned, he raised the gun and fired at me, the shot striking me In both lege. I screamed and fell to the floor and at I did so he rushed onto the porch and b4«an to beat me In the head with the bjtt end of the gun. I 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 lb "I have been anticipating something like this ever since my marriage.' My husband 'has mistreated me for near ly fourteen yeara and haa threatened to batter out my brains. He la a bad man and I feared him. I have left him and eued him for divorce three tlmee because of hla abuse. The first two suite were withdrawn because of hie promisee to treat me right and cease hts abuse. Hie promisep, how ever, were always broken.” Crutchfield, when aaked for a state ment, said: "The wounding of my wife waa 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 ahoot mo. 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 ahe 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 tho floor and Injuring herself In the head with the gun. "I went to.the house for the sole purpose of protecting my two children, which I believe I had a right to do.” CRUTCHFIELD WITNESS WHILE UNDER ARRE8T.

I "If my sister dies I will kill Crutchfield. (He Is the .meanest man I ever saw. $ feel tempted to kill him anyway.” This declaration waa made Friday morning by Mrs. “Billy" Beard, sister of Mrs. Crutchfield and wife of "Billy” Beard, the well-known min strel man and leading comedian,with Haverly’s Minstrels. Mrs. Beard reeldes with Mrs. Crutchfield at 200 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 mletreatlng her for fourteen years and shs 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 hla wife’s bed room and I am (aliened It was his Intention then to kill her. She screamed, however, and frightened him away. Not only haa he. abused his wife, but he has threatened my life and once drew an ax on my mother. His conduct has been xuch that he has wrecked the health of my mother. "There was no man here yesterday afternoon and there was no provo cation for Ihe shooting and beating of my sister. Crutchfield is simply mean and I think.ho must also be crazy. He acts like It.” Philadelphia, Oct 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 ot a proteat by negro clttsens. The court room was densely crowd ed, largely with negroes, who were present to uphold the mayor In his ef forts to suppreu the play, which he de clared waa engendering race hatred and producing disorder through - Its pre sentation. Reads Extract from Play. An unusual scene. In court proceed ings was presented when City Solicitor Kinsey read extracts from "The Clans man,” emphasising those portions that he sought to show ths court would nat urally produce a racial feeling that was Inimical to good order. Mr. Kinsey dis played considerable histrionic art In his reading. Df. Dixon, the author ot the play, also was given a like opportunity to read from the text ot the play, and hla dramatic talent and elocutionary skill were utilised to emphasise the contrary view to that ot Mr. Kinsey. When the author attempted to ex. plain the historic foundation ot the play, he was Impatiently Interrupted by Judge Sulzberger with; "What do we care for that? Hlx. tory may be as false as a He Itself. Don't weary ua with auch matters. You can write a history of Pennsylvania from the records of the penitentiary, but that would not make It correct.” Dr. Dixon on Stand. Dr. Dixon was called to the stand, and explained that he hod 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” In the scene between Stoneman and Lynch, In which the latter aald he had been given equality, the court asked him how much there was In this "pith," to which the author replied, "About half a dosen lines." , "Than,'In these six lines you give the pith. You have 18,000 words In the play and the other 17,940 don't repre sent the pith,” commented Judge Buls- berger, with pleasing sarcasm, and he seemed to enjoy his pleasantry. “Laopard Can't CHangs Spots.” When the court asked Dr. Dixon If he did not use the name Lynch for one of hla characters on account of Its sim ilarity of "Judge Lynch,” Dr. Dixon de nied It, and declared that hla purpose was to prevent lynching. When Judge Sulxberger entered Into a discussion as to what solution the author had worked out. Dr. Dixon Interjected: ”1 have not set out the solution In ths play. I merely state In my play that the leopard can not change his epots.” WOODWORKING PLANT TO LOCATE IN MISSISSIPPI. Special lo The Georgian. Jackson, Mias., Oct 26.—Indiana par ties will build veneering works at Greenwood In Leflore county costing $290,000. This section ot the atnte was selected because of Its wealth of hard wood. Almost a new town Is being built there and the new enterprise will give employmente to several hundred people. BROUGHTON TALKS "As a matter of fact I believe‘that v 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 dll.'" 1 Councilman W. L. Oldknow com-, pleted Ills 'statement to the committee having his nfficlal conduct under Ink vestlgutloi) Friday with those' words. The second session of the committee developed no more tangible evidence ngulnst Mr. Oldkmnv thanoMI session a week ago, iJbt/wild J alter conference developed at least more life Harry Silverman had.a little aklr 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 ejaculated by a lot of men whV.were deprived of their licenses and I ddipt-pay any at tentlon to the yelping of a lot of hounds,” said he. Rev. Len G. Broughtdtt Wat edited to tell where he got the facts .oq which he based a sermon; deljv«0ij IJuif before his departure for Eurtffxf. In the ser mon he said that the same jro^cl which controlled the city wh£b he. first-came to Atlanta controlled It flow; that some of the city fathers had given up their segulor business for the $300-per-year Job of councilman and atlll “supported their fsmlllei and wore fine clothes.' When asked In regard to all this Dr. Broughton said that he had aald all that, but that It should possibly not have been aald from the pulpit, but ln the council chamber, "where It might possibly 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 said: “Evidently our standards of proper conduct differ widely. If a preacher was continually seeking after a $300- per-year pastorate I would put him down as either a fool or a boodler. I wouldn't vote for a man who la con tinually seeking an dffice which pays as little as a job In the city council." Money For Vote. B. Moon, who until he was re cently discharged, waa a captain oh the Atlanta police force, said that At- torney Madison Bell had told him that he (Bell) had paid Oldknow $100 to secure the election of Captain Jett. Mr. Bell absolutely denied this, but said that he was merely talking to Captain Moon on the night of July 4 about cer tain rumors that Oldknow had been paid for hla vote. Mr. Oldknow In his 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 ot his alleged mlscon >duct had already been Investigated In several lodges to which he belongs and he has been cleared there. The committee meets again at 3:$0 Friday afternoon, at which time It will probably formulate Its report to the council. STRIKERS SAY JACKSON WANT8 WIRES PLACED UNDER GROUND. Speelsl to The Georgia u.

Importation of-anight 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 bet;-t labor than what they, have to take nur places, we are satisfied; Those nien nre not machinists. They knoiv It. Tlia Southern officials. If they don't al ready know It, will soon. "We have Just received money from the national union for the' first week's benefit. It's between 3100 and $900. This will be $7 a week for each 'man. We wlll continue to get this amount each week, as long as the strike lasts. The un^n can continue to' pay this amount for yeara and never feel the strain. "In addition lo 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 ua 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 Bouthern and gone home. Out at the shops men are stationed at each of the entrances for the pur pose of keeping everybody out except employees. An effort was made by representative of The Georgian to gain 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 la stated that there areelghty men. They came In two carloads, one on Wednesday njght and one Thursday morning. They were employed by bu reaus, It Is elated, whose business Is to furnish men to break strikes. , A Jspsnsst Preacher. Rev.
