Atlanta, Ga.', October 28.
the newly -discovered disease which
has proven fatal to so many In the
South after eating bread made of
corn meal, has lnvaSi'd the ranks of
the Southern cattle through Western
corn, according to a pamphlet ' on
the Bubject of Pellagra by Dr. J. J.
Watson, of Columbia, S. C.. an -

In writing epeolflcally oh the pres
ence of pellagra in horse* and cattle,
Dr. Watson says: "I therefore bellera
that Western corn goes through a
heat before It reaches Its destination
and it Is during this heating process
that the-pellagra fungi develops and
when this corn Is sold. lt Is Infected
with the fungi, ss the samples I have
secured from the market would plain

, Atlanta, Ga„ Oct. 28—A little
story ln the Atlanta Journal yester
day afternoon caused a broad smile
among capital officials today.
The story was under a scare-head
and told of how much It cost the
state to have the books of the treas
ury department audited a few
-weeks ago. The amount was 2375
and It was paid to Alonso Richard
son A Company, who were employ
ed by Governor Brown to make a
careful examination and report
actual conditions. This they have
done. Their report le accepted aa
a true one by everybody acquainted
with conditions.
What causes the smile, though, is
the Journal's attempt to make cap
ital of the amount paid. An exam
ination of the warrant hook ln the
Executive Secretary’s office today
shows that Governor Smith, on
June the 22nd, paid the same firm
for precisely the same work 2772.24,
or a little more than tw%w the
amount paid by Got. Dnfwn. On
June the 10th, Governor Smith paid
the Joel Hunter Co., another Arm
of expert accountants, $330.03 for
Investigating the books of the' Pris
on Commission, thongh those books
(were Investigated lust six months
before that by a legislative com
mittee.
A comparison, therefore, -between
the amounts paid by Governor
Brown and Governor Smith for aud
iting books of the treasury, shows

The bfssld of-the foundation is the
