West May Try To
Gobhle Treasury Loan
$60,000,000 May be Used to
Move the Crops.
Washington, D. C., Sept. 18.—
As indicated a few days ago
might be the case, assistant sec
retary K. O. Baily of the treas
ury left Washington today for
Dublin, N. H., to confer with
Secretary McVeagh and consider
the advisability of distributing
$60,000,000 to banks in the yreat
farming sections to prevent
money stringency through the
amounts withdrawn for the move
ment of crops.
Reports of national bank exam
inations made on the call of Sept.
4 show that there isa decided
tendency toward a decrease in
reserve in the interior banks and
a calling of loans of city banks.
Detailed reports of the examina
tions of Sept. 4 will be available
in a few days. |
It is believed in some circles
that if this money is put out the
Western banks will want to gob
ble it up and that little of it will ‘
be used in the South. |
Two Cordele Mashers
Fined $225 in Alb2ny
Albany, Ga., Sept. 18 —ln the
city court of Albany Judge Cros
land ‘‘stung’’ two Cordele men,
Ed Barber and Ed Mercer, with
stiff fines after they had entered
pleas of guilty of insulting an
Albany lady on the streets of that
city.
They had previously been fined
$25 each 4@ the mayor’s court.
Their lawyer made a strong plea
for leniency in behalf of the two
young men today when their
pleas were entered, but Judge
Crosland respended by fining
them $2OO each.
|.§ack Slaton Paid
! For What He Got
lDidn’t Buy “Influence,”
' But Advertising Costs.
' Atlanta, Sept. 18.—Governor
fyelect John M. Slaton is mnot a
’sponge. He believes in aiways
lpaying his way. This virtue
lcaused him to occasion a little
lsurprise among a few people be
'cause of the fact that they
ideemed $12,000 a lot of money to
'spend on a political race in which
‘there wasn’t a very sharp race.
’ To set them right it is explain
;that the $12,000 went, as the fig
ures show, to pay for services
‘which could only be remunerated
on a cash basis. The governor
elect didn’t spend any of his
twelve thousand dollars buying
‘4nfluence.”” Every cent of it
went to buy advertising space at
so much an inch; to buy the ser
vices of clerks and stenographers |
at so much per week; to purchase
campaign buttons; to buy stamps
for postage, and for similar out
lays. The governor-elect believes
that a man ought to pay his way
according to his means. |
Women Bargain Hunters
Fought Over Matting
Atlanta, Sept. 18.—Two Atla
ta women bargain hunters fought
each other like a couple of tigers
in a Mitchell St. store yesterday
afternoon over a piece of matting
which each wanted and each de
clared she had picked up first.
The matting was greatly reduced.
In fact, it was reduced to sheds
when the women got through
pulling at it and at each other.
The manager of the store was
at a loss whether to eall the police
or the fire department, but finally
the women became exhausted and
gave up the struggle.

all parts of the world. - ; !

Commissicn Making
Thorough Job of It
Select‘s Five Agents to Give
Mileage Information.
Atlanta, Sept. 18.—In further
preparation for the hearing on
the mileage puiling application
of the traveling men, and in order
to get all possible facts bearing
on the subject, the railrecad com
mission has subpeenaed a number
of station agents tocome here on
October 10.
A few days ago a list of the
active railroad conductors subpee
naad was printed, and now the
following "station agents have
been summoned to appear:
Atlanta, Birmingham & Atlantic
—F. H. Baker, agent at Talbot
ton. -
Georgia Southern and Florida
—J. M. Wooten, agent at Una
dilla.
Seaboard Air Line—J, N Moses,
agent at Richland, and C. H.
Barnes, agent at Comer.
Southern—R. L. Fields, agent
at Bremen, and T. L. Rochester,
agent at Norcross.
Central of Georgia—E M.
Southland, agent at Joneshoro,
and W. H. Colgate, agent at Ten
nille.
| These cenductors and agents
are all state witnesses and will
l tirst be examined by the commis
sion, and then turned over for
cross examination to the Travel- |
lers’ Protective Association and
the railroad lawyers.
The commission selected names
of conductors of the highest pro
fessional and personal character,
with experience, and running o
day local trains, of five promi
nent Georgia svstems. .nforma
| tion as to the standing and char
!acter of these men was obtained|
from outside personal sources and
lnot from any rzilroad officials, no
jone having been consulted or
| knowing the commission intend«d
Ito subpeena conductors at all. ‘
It has been contended that con
dugtors do not have time to pull
rpiheage; that it would.interfere
wiih-their train duties and cause
|delayed schedules. ete.; tlat
many passengers would {ry to
work short mileage on them;
would check baggage one route
and travel another, or a man
holding mileage and no baggage
would check excess baggage for
others, etc. The commission
wants to find first-hand knowl
edge from these men, and straight
information as to abuses practic
]ed or attempted to be practiced
lon them.
The commission selected on
each of the large systems in the
state without outside suggestion
or assistance, two stations, and
|strictly local, one strictly lccal
and the other at junction points,
,and subpeenaed agents at these
points. The station points selec
ted are typical of the fair-sized,
average Georgia town. It has
’been contended that station
lagents have too many duties and
too little help and between sell
ling tickets, handling baggage,
express and freight, and railroad
and commercial telegrams, etc.,
ete., have no time to exchance
mileage promptly—thus delaying
passengers. The commission
wishes to get first-hand knowl
edge from these agents, as their
duties, how long it takes them to
write out and issye mileage ex
change tickets; how long before
train time the average passenger
calls for a ticket and to have his
baggage checked, etec., etc.,—
what time they have to exchange
mileage and so forth.
