AND DETURN via SOUTHERN RAILWAY L RAISE El FOR IMMIGRANTS TO THIS STATE The directors of the Georgia Immi gration Association met In Savannah Monday ant) held an all-day session, which was full of Interest. The moat Important matter that came up was the report of a committee of the board which went to Charleston Sunday to see the landing of the North German I.loyd steamship Wltteklnd, direct from Belgium, with 420 Immi grants brought over from Belgium and neighboring countries. The Immigrants were In charge of Sir. E. J. Wataon, commissioner of Immigration for South Carolina, who has been In Europe for some time working up the party. P. P. Sargent, United States commissioner giyieral of Immigration, wax there with n staff of Inspectors and Interpreters, who subjected the Immigrants to a searching Invsstlgatloji. The' result Was that 93 were refused admission and seven Were excluded because they were suffering from trachoma, n dis ease of the eyes. The Immigrants had little or no money, but the opinion of the commit tee was that It was an excellent lot of people, very far above.the average of those who land at Ellis Island. This I* due to the fact that the state of South Carolina paid their passage and care fully selected these people. They were taken to Columbia, thence to be dis tributed through the state. Some were textile operators, some farmers, some mechanics, etc. The state of South Carolina only appropriated a few thousand dollars. Judge Andy Calhoun is confronted with a problem. Puzsle: How can thirty-five rioters be tried In three weeks before five- men Juries when the Atlanta criminal court is allowed a panel of only"twelve men per week, and when a Juror has assisted In the trial of one riot east! he la debarred from sitting on any of the others? But the Judge Is not worrying over the question much, because the lawyers representing the white men arrested for rioting on the night of September 22 have elected to sever and If they had rather stay In jail until the next term the court has no particular ob jections, I. H. Curr, one of the rioters, was convicted Monday and will be sen tenced during the latter part of the week, when the sentences are posted on whatever cases of this character can be tried before Saturday. Carr, who Is an electrician. Inter ested In the Southern Electro-Plating Company, admitted on the stand that he had been down town on the night of the riot and that he had chased and struck a negro, hut he said he did It after hearing a cry of "Stop thief!” and protested that lie knew nothing of the riot which was at Its height at that time. , MOTHER-IN-LAW CAUSES SUIT FOR IE we undertooK to supply every per son in the United States who had lost their appetites, with a package of Toasted Corn Flakes, we would be very much further behind our orders than we arc now.

The other kind hae been brought Into the limelight, however. In the divorce suit of Mrs. Minnie Hubbard Smith against Charles E. Smith. The peti lion for a separation shows that the couple was married on August 14, 1203, and that Smith took hla bride to live at his mother's home at 71 East Baker street. Mrs. Smith says that her hue band’s mother fro.n the first cruelly maltreated her und on several occa. sions threatened to kill her. The pe. tltloner claims that she begged her husband to take her aotnewhere else, but that he would not do It. so, fear ing for her life, she left him September 20. 1005. She asks for a total divorce and the restitution of her maiden name. and It la understood that moat of the money for this movement was fur nished by the cotton mill companies of South Carolina, who turned over 926,- 000 to the state treasury to be used by the bureau of Immigration at Ite dis cretion. ’’The Georgia Immigration Associa tion Is watching this movement and with a great deal of interost,” said W. G. Cooper, secretary of the Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, and directors of the association from the Fifth dis trict, who attended the meeting In Sa vannah. "The plan outlined at the first meet ing of the Georgia Immigration Asso ciation." he continued, “Is In brief as fallows: "To raise by subscription the sum of 150,000 and turn that over to the state for the use of the bureau of Immigra tion. with the understanding that the commissioner of Immigration will send competent agents abroad to select from Northern Europe a good class of Im migrants und bring them to Georgia, binding them at Suvannab nnd bring ing them to some central point In the Interior of the state, thenre to be dis tributed throughout Georgia. "It was also proposed Id go before the legislature at Its next session and ask the state tn take hold of the sub ject of Immigration In earnest and ntakn n sufficient appropriation to make the bureau nr Immigration a reality.’’ ROOSEVELT SET A PACE FOR QUICK VOTE CASTING; IN BOOTH FIFTEEN SECONDS flpeclil tn The Georgian.
