. found guilty, of the murder of his wife,
f after trial In the superior court of Ful
|U ton county last summer. Judge Gilbert

S The murder was a particularly horrible
one. it is alleged, the murderer entering
into the room of Mrs. Burge in the night
time While she lay sleeping, and leaving
her weltering in blood. The crime was
fixed upon the husband, who had pre
viously had some quarrel with his wife,
and the conviction followed.
The supreme court has confirmed the
conviction, and Burge will be brought be

U. 5. AND CANADA
NAY BE INVOLVED
■ IN A TARIFF WAR
Congressman Mann Says Country
May Well Be Alarmed at Troub
le Growing Out of Ratos on
Print Paper and Pulp.
WASHINGTON. ■ Nov. 27.—Congress
man Mann, who was chairman of the
special committee on wood pulp and print
paper of the last fcongress. and who pre
pared the provisions on those items as
first reported to the house by the Payne
tariff bill, but who wak overruled by con
gress in the final passage of the tariff
law, takes the position that the country
may well be alarmed at the danger of a
tariff war with Canada, growing out of
the tariff on wood pulp and print paper
under tha Payne act.
Mr. Mann has prepared, and at the be
ginning of the forthcoming session of
congress will introduce, several bills and
joint resolutions relating to this subject.
One of his measures is a joint resolu
tion to postpone the application of the
maximum tariff from April. 1, next, to
January 1, 1»U. Ataother of his .resolu
tions provides that the maximum tariff
of the Urftted States shall be held not
to apply io wood pulp and printing paper
Imported from Canada.
HAS PREPARED
Mr. Mann has also prepared and will
introduce a bill which provides that wood
pulp and printing paper shall be admit
ted free of duty when imported from
Canada, being the product thereof, on the
condition precedent that Canada or the
province in which the wood pulp or print
ing paper, is manufactured, shall not for
bid or restrict or impose any export duty
or export license upon printing paper,
mechanically ground wood pulp or wood
used in the manufacture of wood pulp.
WILL MAKE A FIGHT.
These measures naturally when In
troduced will be referred by the speaker
to the committee on ways and means,
but Mr. Mann may make a fight In the
house to have them referred to the com
mittee on inter-state and foreign com
merce, of which he is the new chairman.
In the last congress, when the ways
and means committee was endeavoring to
smother the bill introduced by Mr. Mann
to prevent the importation of smoking
opium he sent a notice to every member
of the house that on a certain morning
he would move to take that bill from,
the ways and means committee and re
fer It to a friendly committee. The re
sult was a passage at arms between Mann
and. Chairman Payne, of the ways and
means committee, on the floor of the
house, but Mr. Payne was compelled to
report favorably Mann's opium bill and
It became a law.
CANADA XVILL RETALIATE.
Mr. Mann says that unless some legis
lation, such as he proposes, be adopted,
or a reciprocal treaty with Canada be
agreed to, Canada, smarting under the in
justice of the Payne tariff law. is likely
to forbid the exportation of pulp wood
from Canada to the United States and
thereby not- only close .up a number of
the newspaper ml Us of the United States,
but increase tha cost and price of print
paper to a point ‘•fchleh will Inflict tre
mendous injury not only upon the news
papers. but upon the book nublishers, in
cluding especially school books.
TOWN OF PALMETTO K
RAVAGED BY FIRE
PALMETTO. Ga., Nov. 27-TonlglTt at
11 o'clock fire broke out In the rear of a
general merchandise store- occupied by
Jim Cooper, causing a dangerous con
flagration. Just how the Are started Is
as yet undetermined, but supposedly
from a defective chimney.
At 1 o’clock every store in that block
seems to be in immediate danger. The
one thing that can save the southern por
tion of the business section and some
of the finer residences of the city is the
fire wall between the last stores. The
stores occupied by Copper, T. A. Gog
gins and rhe cotton warehouse of C. B.
Moseley & Co. are completely gutted.
The Are company, while fighting gal
lantly, seem to have little power against
the. terrible onslaught of ravaging
flames.
The stores on the north sided occupied
by the Hudson Grocery company have
been in flames several times, but no se
rious damage has been done;
Several Injuries have oeen reported,
but the exact nature Is not known; the
damage done by the Are up to the pres
ent time is estimated as $30,000, with
practically no Insurance.
TAFT FOK SAKES GOLF
TO RIDE HORSEBACK
XX ASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—Since his re
turn from the west President Taft has
taken to horseback riding with an avidity
which augurs ill for the executive golf
game. Although the weather has been
meal for golf during the past two weeks,
Mr. Taft has visited the links but twice.
The president realises, however, that the
snows of winter soon will put an end
to constant golf playing on the links
about the capital and he is anxious to get
hardened to the saddle for he expects to
do a great deal of riding during the cold
months. ' " ‘
Another reason for the preference for
riding is the shortening of the afternoons.
To play eighteen holes of golf requires
three hours of daylight, according to the
president’s schedule, and he Is le)d<»m
able to get away from the White House
before 3 o’clock tn the afternoon, at
tempts kt golf playing would be futile.
The president rode for more than two
hours thia afternoon with Capt. Butt, his
aide.

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GEORGIA, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30.1905.
South Carolina News
COLUMBIA, S. C., Nov. 27,—The ju
diciary of the state tonight declaied
unconstitutional the recent act at' the
legislature granting the Carolina,
Clinchfield and Ohio Railway r. char
ter arid refused to require the secretary
[Ot state to charter the road.
The road has announced no policy
for the future.
The principal ground for the refusal
of the charter was that the act violat
ed a section of the state constitution
which declares that no foreign corpo
ration shall do business in this state,
except under the laws of this plate.
The effect of the decision is practically
to overrule In part, the decision In
the Tompkins case, which rested upon
the act under which the Southern Rail
way was domesticated.
The supreme court justices and the
circuit judges considered the proposi
tion on bank today.

HUSBAND, WIFE AND
BABY SLAIN IN KANSAS
FRONTENAC, Kan., Nov. 27.—A triple
murder, end an assault on a woman was
enacted on a lonely road a mile north of
here some time last night. The dead
are Mr. and Mrs. XVllllam Bork, Ger
mans, of Fontenac, and their son. who
was 2 1-2 years old. Mr. Bork presum
ably was killed while trying to defend
his wife.
The child probably was slain because
the murderer wished to silence him.
The Borks were last seen alive late
last night, when they started to drive
home to Frontenac from the home of
Mrs. Bork’s mother, two miles out In
the country. This morning the Borka’
horse and buggy were found standing In
the roadway at a deserted spot. In the
bottom of the buggy was discovered the
child, dead from a bullet wound In Its
head. '
Hastily pursuing their investigations,
miners who found the child’s body, came
jacross the body of Bork in the middle
of the road some distance away. Bork
had been shot once in the head and
twice in the body. »
A trail through the dust plainly led the
miners to a corn field 100 feet further
away, There they found the body of the
woman. She had been assaulted and had
then been shot through the heart.
Mrs. Bork had fought desperately
against her assailant. Along the trail to
the corn field were found both the slip
pers she had worn. Ribbons from her hair
and her cloak were also found.
It Is supposed Bork was the first to be
k'lled The indications were that he
had ta.'en shot as he sat In the buggy and
that he fell from his seat to the road.
Two bullets evidently were fired into his
body after he fell.
Coroner Dudley. Sheriff Morrison and
County Attorney XVoolley hurried here
from Pittsburg, Kan., as soon as they
heard of the crime. The bodies were
brought into town and an inquest was
held this afternoon. Bloodhounds were
sent for to be used In an effort to trail
the slayer. He left no iclue, .Lynching
may result If he is capturedY
EARTH’S SHADOW
DARKENED THE MOON
The occultation of the. moon, announced
by the officials of United States
weather bureau for the early hours of
Saturday morning, was pulled off as per
schedule, greatly to the edification and
satisfaction of all who witnessed the im
pressive sight. .
As explained in The Journal several
days ago, the eclipse was due to the fact
that the earth, moon and sun were all in
line for two hours, and the shadow of
the earth shut off the moon from the
sun's rays for that length of time.
Friday night was as beautiful as a
poet’s dream. The sky was clear as crys
tal, and the world was flooded with the
silver rays of the radiant full moon. The
eclipse was not scheduled to begin until
11 minutes after 1 o’clock, when the moon
was directly overhead.
No telescope was needed to witness the
eclipse. At exactly the hour and min
ute named, a faint dimness began to ob
scure the brilliance of the moon on one
side, and soon It looked as if a slice had
been cut from the luminary. Gradually
the shadow crept across the face of the
moon, the earth’s curvature being plain
ly visible.
Rapidly the Illuminated crescent grew
smaller, and at a few minutes after 2
o’clock the thin rim of light faded en
tirely and the earth was plunged into
starlit darkness. For more than an hour
the world was in darkness, and then the
shadow began to leave the moon. As
gradually as It had been darkened the
moon was re-lllumlnated, and at 4:30
o'clock all was as though nothing un
usual had occurred. Many people in At
lanta remained awake In order to witness
the spectacle.

GOMPERS SCORES
JUSTICE WRIGHT
XVASHINGTON. Nov. 26.-" I repeat
what I have said heretofore. Justice
'Wright is biased and is unfit to wear the
judicial ermine.”
■fn- these words Carnuel Gompers, the
president of the American Federation of
Labor, today referred to Associate Jui*-
tlce Wright, of the district supreme
court, who sentenced Messrs. Gompers,
Mitchell and Morrison for' contempt.
Mr. Gompers said that if the supreme
court declines to permit the issue to
come before it for review or affirms the
lower court’s decision he will not ask the
president for a pardon nor willingly per
mit his friends to do so.
' Had I violated any law and been
guilty and sentenced to prison.” said Mr.
Gompers, "I might consider the question
of seeking executive clemency.”
A writ of certiorari is to be applied for
on Monday when the supreme court con
venes, and If this is denied, a writ of
’ habeas corpus will be asked which. If
F granted, will insure a hearing by the
highest tribunal In the land on the ques
tion whether > the men are being denied
any at their constitutional rights.
Samuel Gompers and
Others Ask Certiorari
WASHINGTON, Nov. 27.—0 n behalf of
Samuel Gompers. John Mitchell and
Frank Morrison, the labor leaders, a P®* l "
tlpn was filed In the supreme court of the

quiring the court of appeals of the Dis
trict of Columbia to certify to the na
tion’s highest tribunal for Its revision and
determination the .appeal taken by th<hn
in the faboas Bucks Stove and Range

questions Involved in this case are of
grat public Importance, affecting the
views and conduct of many millions of
people. Including 2.000,000 who are by
representation made defendants in the
principal action. . .
‘The constitutional right of these peo
ple,” of saying by word of mouth or
printed publication to each other or to
others that they do not propose to deal
with the plaintiff or purchase its pro
ducts Is advanced and the argument is
made that several courts have sustained
this contention.
Though the district court of appeals
denied that they acted within their con
stitutional rights though affirmance of the
conviction of the three leaders for con
tempt corollary to the original suit, it
is urged that a difference of opinion on
that point exists in the court of appeals,
one member of which dissented from the
judgment of the majority of the tribunal.

Notice to Our Readers.
We wish to call the attention of every
reader of The Journal to the advertise
ment of Dr. Blosser’s Catarrh Reme
dy, which appears in this issue. Dr. J.
W. Blosser, 51 Walton street, Atlanta,
Ga., the d’scoverer and proprietor, is a
man of such character that his claims
for the remedy and his promises may t>e
relied upon in every particular.
As he offers absoltuely free a trial
sample of his Catarrh Remedy, it Is
certainly well worth the while of every
sufferer to write him and give the remedy
a trial, at least to this extent. It is ev
ident that unless the remedy was a good
one he could not afford to make this
offer. .
