Is Mrs Jeannette S, Ford, who was
alleged to have blackmailed Warn-
ner out of hundreds of thousands of
dollars and who la now confined ic
n sanitarium, her mind almost gone,
it is cait], as a result of tho strain
of her trial.
The third principal In the cele
bra'rd case Is Edgar Strict Cooke
of Chicago, who Is to be placed on
trill here Monday on a charge of
cmbeiilement from the Rig Four.
HU trial, It U believed, will bring
to light all of the hidden details In
the sordid story of love, lust,
trlgue and blackmail.
Warrlner's Rig Embezzlement,
From the very first It baa been
hinted that the least fact of all in
was Warrlner’s
$643,000 embankment. i n War
rlner',, trial and In the trial of Mrs.
Ford the name - of Edgar Street;
Cooke way frequently
Warrlner declared that Cooke was
the Instigator end rent principal ID
the thefts of the railroad company’s
fiir.de. Tet months paused before
any effort was made toltiiflng about
the arreet and trial of the Chi
cagoan, who affected to feel no fear
that he would ever be prosecuted on
the charges made ag&lnst him.
Charles L. Warrlner confected
that hts thefts from tho railroad
began years ago when ho was em
ployed In the Cleveland office. What
prompted him to begin hla stealings
baa never been learned. While he
lived well, hl B mode of living did
not lead one to believe that he was
spending more than hls salary. He
was a constant attendant at church
and ao far as hat been learned had
no expensive habits.
The career of Mrs Jeannette B.
Ford, the second principal In the
cate, Is lees mysterious but more
romantic. She had Just finished her
course In a fashionable boarding
sehool when her father died, leav
ing her, an orphan, with aomo $86,-
000. She was then In her teens. In
Cincinnati she met a man named
Ford and married him. Ford later
secured a divorce.
The Woman Met Oooke,
Soon after this tne woman met
Edgar Street Cooke, young good-
looking and prosperous Book was
subordinate of Warrlner In the
Big Four office. There were rumors
that Cooke wag abort In hls ac
counts. Later Warrlner made a re
port that Cooke was not short and
discharged him. Cooke quit work,
but continued to draw hl« salary. In
act, hla salnry was doubled. Follow
ing thk discovery came the allega
tions of a blackmail plot In which
a man and a woman forced Warrlner
to pay heavily or have hla own
ebortagle made public.
Cooke la alleged to have told
Mgs. Ford of Warrlner’s thortage.
Then he went to Chicago to escape
her, having evldentiy decided to de
vote hie attention in future to hie
beautiful wife and hie two sons.
Mrs. Ford was quick to meet tbe
crisis. She Is alleged to have uaed
tho knowledge of the embezzlement
to extort money and yet more
money from Warrlner, and to have
employed this money In her mad
pursuit of Cooke. She demanded
money from one and love from the
other, according to the stories told.

Atlanta, Jnna 10.—The Georgia
W. C. T. U., tho Anti-Saloon League
and their allied forces have taken
two radleal steps In Atlanta which
have aroused a strong eplrlt of an
tagonism from the conservative ele
ment, which up to this time had not
taken a very active Interest on either
elite of the fight
First the temperance workere went
among the working girls of Atlanta
and persuaded hundreds of girls In
the department stores, telephone op
erators and other estimable young
women who work for a living, to
sign a pledge of total abstinence
from alcoholic liquors of nil kinds.
Thpn, publishing the fact broadcast
and mentioning tbe names of many
of the girls, they proclaimed another
great victory for tho cause.
The fathers and mothers of these
girls are in many cases Incensed
over the affair, and declare It Is not
only ridiculous, but holds up to the
public as “reformed" a lot of thor
oughly respectable working girls
nine-tenths of whom had never tast
ed whiskey as a beverage In all their
lives.
The other radleal steps taken by
the temperance workers Is their an
nouncement that they propose to try
to get tho state legislature to take
away from all the churches the right
communion wine—forcing
them to nee water or unfermemed
grape Juice In the eeremony. Against
•tihrel«l*the churches themselves, in
many Instances, are strongly pro
testing, though n few mlnleters are
allied In flavor of tho change.
In some* of tho denominations the
use of real wine Is regarded as an
rasentlal part of the cnmmnnlon, as
Is declared that the attempt to
abrogate this privilege would be re
garded and fought se an actual ef

TNE BANKERS WILLI
SIMPLIFY MATTERS.
Universal Numerical System
has Been Recommended
by the Association.
Atlanta, June 10.—The American
Bankers’ Association has approved
plan to simplify correspondence
between banks by baring a uni
versal numerical system, a sort of
number code to designate all the
banks In tbe United States, without
jtho necessity of using their names.
Reserve cities—there are 49 In the
United States—win have Individual
city numbers, from 1 to 49.
vannah tbe only reserve city In
Georgia, has the city number'd 38.
Consequently the biggest bank In
Savannah will be designated as 38-1
the next largest ns 38-3 cto.
Now, Atlanta, not being n reserve
City has no city number. Bnt the
Ante number tor Georgia will be <4*
It happens that the biggest hank In
Atlanta Is tbe biggest bank In Geor
gia, so It will be designated as 64-1.
Banka to Macon, Augusta, Albany

have the prefix (4 and Individual
numberings running on np as high
