APPRAISER A 7 MANILA IS STRICKEN WITH LEPROSY Washington, Nov. 20.—Advices re ceived from Manila state that George Pfeifer, an examiner In the appraiser's office of the custom house, has been stricken with leprosy.

The through train service as contem plated between Atlanta and Chicago, which was expected to be put Into ef fect next Saturday, will hardly be In augurated before January 1. It was understood st the conference of railroads Interested at the Piedmont hotel some days ago that th'e through train from Cincinnati anil the train from Chicago would consolidate at At lanta for 'other Southern' points. The new road-bed of the Louisville nnd Nashville In North Georgia Is not considered sufficiently settled to put on through fast service fit this time. The recent weather has not been at all favorable for recently established road-beds and the mountalnoua dis tricts of East Tennessee and North Georgia through which the new divi sion of the Louisville and Nashville runs made considerable grading neces sary. anil while trains are running over this road at present it Is not thought to be sufficiently substantial to permit a fast schedule for heavy passenger trains. Important Addition. This through service, when inaugu rated, will be maintained In addition to the regular winter tourist train, the “Dixie Flyer,” to be Inaugurated as usual on January 8. This train will connect Chicago. St. Louis, Atlanta, 8t. Augustine and Jacksonville. The sched ules for Ihe "Dixie FlyeF' have al ready l>een arranged and are prtctl rally the same as those of formsr years. The new train between Atlanta and Chicago will be as finely appointed as any In the country, providing luxury and speed, and It Is expected that the up-to-date equipment will prove a drawing card to the wealthy touriste who conelder comfort while traveling above everything else. This Service has been In effect before, but Its estab lishment for all the year round will prove of great lienefit to Atlanta and the South and It Is expected to prove successful from the beginning. Railroad men Interested In tills through Service say that the schedules will be so arranged that the Chicago train will probably depart from At lanta at 7 a. m. so that passengers may arrive In the Windy City the next morning In time to transact business. The .business Intercourse between At lanta nnd Chicago has grown material ly In recent years and It Is believed that the fast schedule drawing the cities closer will accentuate trade rela tions until the South and West are more securely cemented. schdoTstteTree Ur.

Calvin, president of the Texas Farmers' Union. Last year Texas planters raised about 2,800,000 bales,of cotton, while this sea son they are expected to market over 3,000,000 bales. It Is one of the strong holds of the E'armers' Union, and tho minimum price of 11 cents, agreed upon, will govern the cotton raisers of the Lone Star State, and It Is under stood that they will stand firm for this price. "Almost all the farmers In Texas have sold enough of their cotton to meet their obligations,” said President Calvin In his letter, “and they are holding the rest for 11 cents.” "The farmers of the old stales," said President Jordan In commenting upon the letter of President Calvin, "should stand by the action of the Texas farm ers and through co-oparatlon all along the line advance the price of cotton to higher levels. Worth 12 Cents. 'The unusual weather conditions that have prevailed over the cotton belt throughout the season warrant at least 12 cents for the staple. As soon as the volume of cotton now In the Interior hHS moved out, the price will go higher. If the planters will only stand by each other and wail. "The present price of 10 1-2 cents for cotton Is caused by the demand, and It Is not a speculative price. A great many of the farmers are content with this price, but If they would only hold back they would get 11 ccnta easy and they should do It.” President Jordan Is engagsd, after his return from speech-making In Gainesville and other points, with pre paring for the county meetings of ths S outhern Cotton Association the first aturday In December, at which coun ty officers and representatives to ths state meeting will be elected.

FRANK JARVIS IS INJURED BY FALL SANITARIUM FIRE INVESTIGATED BY CITY DETECTIVES The city detective department has In stituted a thorough Investigation Into the Are of Sunday morning that badly damaged the new sanitarium of Dr. Stockard In Crew street, near Fair, and which Is believed to have been of In cendiary origin. The suspicious circumstances of th<> Are were reported to . Chief Jennings and he at once had detectives detailed to probe the matter and ascertain all of the facts possible: The sanitarium has been In course of construction for some time and was al most ready for occupancy at the time of the Are. * Sunday morning about 7 o’clock th*> building was discovered In flames and before they were extinguished by tho firemen the structure had been dam aged to the extent of several thousand dollars. « When the firemen arrived on the scene they made tho discovery that several places about tne building had been saturated with oil and this at mil led to the Incendiary theory. It is stated that the Are broke out Just after the night watchman had left the build ing and this is also regarded as a sus picious circumstance. It being supposed the fire-bug watched for the departure of the watchman nnd then, applied the torch before anyone In the nelghbor- 1 had stirred. The blaze was discovered by u negro man, who sent In a telephone alarm. Tills negro knew there was a telephone In tho tool house. Jusj in the rear <>t the sanitarium, nnd, bursting In the door, he called up Are department head quarters and gave the Information about the Are.
