Business Better Than Last
Year and Some Think Fall
Trade Will Be Better Than
Ever Before
Merchant* report that trade, elnce the
fall *e*s>n began, has been better than
ft was during September of last year,
and come believe that the fall trade will
be better than ft ever has been before.
The wholesale dealers are Alling more
orders than they were a year ago. and
the retailers are selling to more custom
ers
Wholesale dealers report that they are
receiving more Inquiries from merchants
and that many orders are coming to
them unsolicited. They regard these
two facts as convincing indications of
unusually good business conditions.
Money' is still somewhat tight, but
with the moving of the cotton crop this
condition will be remedied.
Business men as a whole are very op
timistic. They And present conditions
satisfactory in every way and look for
business to grow even better as the fail
continues
Following are statements that were se
cured yesterday from leading merchants:
BUSINESS SPLENDID.
Gordon Kiser, of the M. C. Kiser com
pany. makers of the well known "Shield
Brand Shoes" declares that the outlook
for business this fall is magnificent.
“Our traveling men this season will
cross the Mississippi river and open up
new territory from which we expect
splendid returns. Heretofore they have
confined themselves to the south Atlan
tic states, but in future we win do a
big business In the middle west. This,
of course, will largely Increase the com
pany's business, all of which will be In
addition to the An* trade we already
have In our present territory, which Is
by now means small. Our salesmen are
now showing our new line of samples
and with a half-mllllon-dollar stock we
ar* prepared to serve our trade prompt
ly”
J. K. Orr. of the J. K. Orr Shoe Co.:
"Business during the last ten days has
been splendid. Since September began
trade has been better than it was dur
ing September last year. I look for busi
ness this fall to be better than it wm
during the fall season In 1909 We are
receiving an unusual number of Inquiries
from merchants and our orders are en
tirely satisfactory. Quite a few mer
chants seem to be starting up in busi
ness. I can see nothing but good things
ahead of us. With cotton selling at IB
cents or more, there will be money a
plenty In the south , and business should
move along with a rush.”
W. S. Byck. of Byck Bros.: “Busi
ness has been very good indeed since the
fall began. It has been better than it
was last year, and I really expect the
biggest fall trade this year we have ever
had. I And that business conditions are
excellent. Every aspect of the trade is
good and the future was never more
promising."
E. R. Dußose. of Chamberlln-Johneon-
Dußose Co.: "Business Is better with us
than it was last year, and I look for our
trad* this fall to be as good perhaps
as during the fall season of any past
year. Th* fact la we experienced no
dullness In trade in the summer. Busi
ness was good throughout the hot
months, especially so In August."
Lucien York, of M. Rich Bros. A Co.:
"Business conditions are excellent.
Trade is better now than it was this
time last year, and I am looking for
business this fall to be as good as it ever
has been. Next week, with so many vis
itors In Atlanta because of the Odd
Fellows' convention, trade should be un
usually good. In October Colonel Roose
velt will speak here and Atlanta will
again be host to a number of visitors.
High-priced cotton will furnish the
farmer* with money and trade should be
good throughout the state."
CENSUS HELPS CITT.
Henry Bcha.nl, of Schaul & May. jew
elers. said in part." "I have seldom
Sown a year when business started to
om so early In the fall. I am sure
that Atlanta win have the biggest year
tai her history. This early boom, in
my own opinion. Is due to two things.
Et the census announcement of At
tjfs population, which has made out
siders realise what a hustling city we
really have. Another thing Is the
number of big conventions, which have
advertised the city all over the country.
Dr. Joseph Jacob* Is highly elateo
ever th* early business start which
Atlanta seems to be experiencing.
~T was looking for it," said Dr. Ja
cobs,” and I was prepared for It. Not
only did I make early orders for sup
plies from different parts of this coun
try, but I anticipated this early rush
es fall business by getting my ship
ments from Japan and Europe espec
ially early.
"Atlanta Is going to have a great
business year. The fact that by a
government count Atlanta has over
114.909 Inhabitants makes real estate
values unusually stable and safe, and
this greatly help* the town In a gener
al way Advertising and the old "At
lanta spirit” Is also responsible in a
measure for the boom that's coming.”

TERM IN PRISON WINS
POWERS CONGRESS SEAT
Former Secretary of State Is
Elected in Kentucky by
7,000 Majority
LONDON. Ky., Sept. 19.—Pleading for
votes on account of what he called his
eight years' "martyrdom" in jail in con
nection with the Goebel asassination,
Caleb Powers, former secretary of state,
has defeated Congressman Don C. Ed
wards for the republican nomination for
representative from the Eleventh con
gressional district of Kentucky In a
primary election held today, by 7,000
majority.
At the headquarters of Congressman
Edwards in this city it is conceded that
Powers had carried al! but four of the
19 counties, which comprise the dis
trict. Edwards carried only Laurel,
Bull, Pulaski and Perry counties
Congressman Edwards is serving his
third term. Powers, who defeated him
for renomination, made his race upon
an appeal to the voters of the district
to give him the nomination as a “vin
dication" of his alleged complicity in
the assassination of Democratic Gov
ernor William Goebel In 1900.
Powers, who was secretary of state
at the time of the assassination, was
conAned in jail during eight years, his
first three trials resulting in convic
tions and the fourth In a disagrement.
Last year Governor Wilson swept
the court records clear of all of the
eases remaining untried In connection
with the Goebel murder by granting
pardons to Powers and several others.

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKT7Y JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GEORGIA. TUESDAY. SEPT. 20, 1910.
CAVALIERI MAY SING
IN CONCERT IN NOVEMBER
Chanler May Accompany Her.
Music Association Will Se
riously Consider Her as One
of the Season’s Offerings
Mlle. Lina Cavalleri, the Itilian prima
donna, otherwise Mme. Robert Winthrop
Chanler. said to be the most beautiful
woman in the world and the possessor of
one of the sweetest soprano voices of the
day, may appear at the Atlanta audito
rium next November, under the auspices
of the Atlanta Music Festival associa
tion. It is not improbable that Mr.
Chanler, husband of the noted beauty,
will be among those present.
Cavalleri is expected to return to
America from Paris within the next
week or ten days, to begin her battle for
the Chanler fortune, and, incldently, to
sign contracts for her concert or operatic
work during the fall and winter in this
country.
Members of the Music Festival associ
ation have the engagement of Cavalleri
seriously under consideration, and at the
next meeting of the board a Anal decis
ion will be reached.
Cavalleri, upon her arrival in America,
will determine deAnitely whether she will
cast her fortune with the Metropolitan
Opera company, or devote herself to con
cert work.
WHO IS CAVALIERI?
And who Is Cavalleri?
No concert or operatic star In th* Arm
ament holds half so much lnter»*t for
the public today as does this Italian
beauty, Tetrazzini, Mary Garden, Ger
aldine Farrar and all the others have
been equaled in public interest by Cav
alier!, who began life as an Italian shop
girl and has forged her way to the front
and married an American millionaire—a
lineal descendant of John Jacob Astor.
Cavalleri is the beauty whose charms
have divorced Robert Winthrop Chan
ler and his fortune. She is the same
whose contributions to the beauty col
umns of 100 newespapers have been-read
by thousands, and whose love affair with
Chanler has set a-wagging the tongues
of thousands of gossips in all parts of
two continents.
The romance of Cavalleri and Robert
Winthrop Chanler—Sheriff Bob, of Duch
ess county, N. Y„ great-great-grand
son of John Jacob Astor —reads more
like a novel than a story from life. It
is the romance of a rich young man, who
fell head over heels in love with a for
eign beauty, whose charms so attracted
him that he signed away all he had and
was content to accept a paltry allow
ance of S2O per month to win her hand
in marriage. It is the romance of a rich
young man—an artist—who was literally
given “the boot” in a foreign land short
ly after he had signed away his fortune
to win the hand of an opera singer. It is
the romance of a rich young man—and
American—who saw his wife spurn his
love and bestow her affections upon a
Russian nobleman within a few short
weeks after he had gained her hand in
marriage by giving to her his all—but
S2O per month.
When Robert Winthrop Chanler Arst
saw Cavalleri he was charmed. She was
singing in New York. The sight of her
snd her msgnlAcent voice so enchanted
this young man of artistic temperament
that he sat in a box every night she
sang, gave her gifts of rare gems, and
refused her declination of his proposals
of marriage. ,
CHANLER PERSISTED. .
And when Robert Winthrop Chanler
heard Cavalleri tell him that she didn't
love him. he smiled and continued his
suit for her hand. He was rejected two
score times, but never lost heart. He
permitted her to use his marriage pro
posals for advertising purposes, and
allowed the newspapers to know long
in advance that he expected to get a
Anal answer to his proposal by cable
from the singer.
SOME OTHER THINGS.
And here are some of the other things
he did In order to marry Cavalleri, who
soon jilted him:
When the Anal answer came he gave
the news jubilantly, with interviews to
the newspapers to aid the press agents.
Went to Europe to be wedded.
Her attorneys had told her that to
make the wedding binding, she had bet
ter tell Chanler the story of her life.
Chanler listened to this.
Agreed to forget th* past.
Heard her tell him that she had a son
18 years old, In a school in Rome, of
whose existence even her, nearest friends
knew nothing.
Heard her say that this son was born
when she was a working girl in Italy.
Agreed to become the stepfather to
this son.
Agreed to turn over to her his entire
fortune, which yielded him an annuity
of $50,000 a year.
Heard her tell him just before the
wedding that she didn't love him. but
was only marrying him for his money,
and because he was a nice sort of fel
low.
Married her.
Discovered that she was still fond of
a bewhiskered Russian prince, with only
two front teeth, whom the laws of Rus
sia forbade her marrying.
Forgave her for this.
Found that his guardians in New York
i refused to turn over to Cavalierl the
j fortune which he had promised her.
Came to New York to plead with
them, knowing that his arrival here
would give full publicity to the fashion
tn which he had been duped.
Told his family and his attorneys that
he wanted to give the woman all his
fortune except enough to yield him an
Income of S2O a month, and that despite
[ her past and her treatment of him, he
still loved her.

Also Indorses Greater Georgia
Association —Stockholders

At a meeting of the executive commit
tee of the Georgia Fruit Exchange last

change to Secretary James Wilson, of
the United States department of agri
culture, and to W. M. Scott, of the bu
reau of plant industry, department of
agriculture, for their efforts during the
past year In the Interest of the fruit in

rot, scab and curiculo. The resolution
concluded with this strong statement:
“We feel that your efforts in this di
rection should have been crowned with
the highest measure of success, which

mittee gave its indorsement to the Great
er Georgia association mot ement.
Notice has beon received at the Geor
gia Fruit Exchange that the Interstate
commerce commission will grant a hear
ing on Tuesday, September 27, on the
petition of the exchange to have the
minimum car load reduced from 53s
crates to 448 a car. It is declared that

on more is a dead loss. The manager,
counsel and a number of witnesses will
go on to Washington to be present at
this hearing.

nual meeting of the members and the
stockholders In the exchange will be held
on the second Tuesday In October, Oct. 11.
DEMAND PROBE OF CAMP
FOR_POLITICAL ACTS
Claiming that Camp W. H. T. Walker,
No. 725, U. C. V., grossly violated the
constitution and by-laws of the associa
tion by dabbling In politics in the recent
state primary by pledging the support
of the camp for Gov. Joseph M. Brown.
Camp Stonewall Jackson, No. 1581, has
adopted resolutions urging the state as
sociation to Investigate the charge and
enforce the law against the camp at the
state encampment at Columbus, Ga.,
next month.
The resolutions were unanimously
adopted by Camp Jackson at h. meeting
September 18, when all members express
ed indignation at the camp dabbling in
politics when the constitution of the U.
C. V. association forbids it. The resolu
tions as adopted by the Jackson camp
will be submitted to the state encamp
ment at their annual session in Columbus
on October 19 and 20, and the associa
tion will be urged to take up and investi
gate the charges in full.
Since the time that Camp Walker vo
ted to support Governor Brown, veterans
throughout the city have been up in
arms against the violation of the con
stitution of the association and the
strong resolutions as adopted by Camp
Jackson were the outgrowth of an in
vestigation by members of Camp Jack
son.
Not only did Camp Jackson adopt res
olutions urging an investigation, but
expelled from their camp Color Bearer
Saxton for displaying in a political pa
rade the camp banner of his camp. His
action was denounced as a violation of
the constitution and an act that the camp
would not stand for.
Following the expulsion of the color
bearer and the adoption of the resolu
tions calling for an investigation of the
alleged violation of Camp Walker the
veterans exonerated Camp Commander
J. B. McFadden of all false accusations
brought against him.

■LER'S DEBTS
HOLD DP FORTUNES
CAVALIERI SEEKS
Lawyers Say ‘Sheriff Bobby’s’
Real Estate Is So Heavily
Mortgaged That He Can Not
Give It Away
NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—Lewis S. Mor
ris gave up the Saturday he usually
spends In sports, keeping his office
force overtime to try to And out what
part of the lands, houses, funds and
other “heredities" Robert W. Chanler
really owned when he transferred them
on paper to Natallna Cavalleri, spin
ster, the “most beautiful woman” and
high salaried opera singer, when she
promised to marry him.
Mr. Morris, who has legal charge of
the Chanler real estate, found his Sat
urday afternoon task very amusing. Ho
could not resist laughing even at such
sober, matter-of-fact questions as “Did
he own what he deeded away?” Or
“Can a man give away property over
whelmed with debt?”
' “I’m too busy this afternoon to pre
cisely clear up for you what Mr. Chan
ler’s possessions are," he said, “but I
should say—wouldn't you?—that if he
gave anything away he must have own
ed it."
And out of sheer joy, no doubt, of
being tied down in u»s office with labor
instead of golfing and pololng, Mr.
Morris laughed again.
Mr. Morris Intimated that the city
tax lists were not a reliable record of
the ownership of property, and that the
mere fact that Chanler is recorded as
having paia the taxes on certain prop
erty is not proof that he is the real
owner.
William Russell Osborn, counsel for
Cavalleri, said seriously:
“I filed that document with the coun
ty registrar because any real estate con
veyance must be so Aled so as to be le
gal.”
He Intimated that, awaiting further
instructions, his duty as retained at
torney had been accomplished. Cavalier!
herself will be here in three or four
weeks, when she has recovered from the
surgical operation.
After her arrival, it is understood,
she will bring suit against the admin
istrators of Chanler's estate, for an ac
counting. She will demand payment for
the worth of the entire accumulated in
come of his estate from the date of
the contract, May 31, minus the allow
ance she agreed to give him out of it
for “spending money’—s2o a month.
Unless present plans arc changed,
Chanler’s defense against his wife’s at
tack will be that until his debts are
paid, no income from his estate will be
available either for his wif* or him
self. It is known that everything ne
owns outright is very heavily mortgag
ed. Just what the value of his prop
erty is has been variously Axed at be
tween $1,000,000 and $2,000,000. and the
debts, It has been Intimated, exceed his
equity, —is own lawyers are at sea on
what that is at present.
It is even considered possible that
before cavaneri can ootain a judicial in
terpretation of her rights in Chanler’s
estate her husband may have to go
through supplementary proceedings.
Small personal debts, which he Is un
able to pay at present, are accumulating
in the hands of his lawyers from
tradesmen of all kinds. The next move
wftuld be bankruptcy proceedings, and
should he be declared a bankrupt it
would be many years, it is thought, be
fore his wife could get anything from
the income of his estate.

Authority on Nervous Diseases
and Insanity Takes His
Life
CLEVELAND, 0., Sept. 17.—Driven

authority on insanity and nervous dis
eases, committed suicide here today.
Accompanied by his wife. Dr. Rutter
came to Celevland three weeks ago on a
visit to some friends. Last Wednesday
he disappeared and all search for him
was fruitless until this afternoon when
he was found in the lobby of a down

had taken.

FOWLER GIVES OUT
STATEMENT ON CANNON
ELIZABETH, ,N. J., Sept. 17.—Al
though Representative Charles N. Fow
ler, one of the leaders in the fight
against Speaker Cannon, has been de
feated for renomination by the Republi
can organization, he acquiesces without
complaint. His attitude is defined in a
statement he gave out tonight in part
as follows:
r'rom a sense of public duty far more
than from personal ambition, I have
made a hard and clean fight for those
principles and policies which I regard
as absolu ly essential to the present
advancement and ultimate welfare of
my country and therefore just as es
sential to the continuance of the Re
publican party in power.
Lut it now appaers that the Repub
licans of the Fifth congressional uis
trict have thought best to nominate
some one else to succeed me in con
gress. I most cheerfully acquiesce in
their action —for i am a (Republican.
Therefore I shall continue to tight for
those principles in the future as in the
past within the ranks of the Republi
can party.”

HIGH PiiICES WILL
TUCH US ECONOMY
This Is the Opinion of Atiram
W. Harris, President of
Northwestern University
CHICAGO. Sept. 17.-“ I believ* th*
present high prices are really a good
thing, for they will teach Americans how
to economixe.”
This startling assertion was made by
Abram W. Harris, president of N
western University, who returned today
from a two months' tour of Europe.
Many conversations with British states
men, President Harris said, led him to
the opinion that Germany was in a fair
way to gain the commercial supremacy
of the world. He was convinced also
that the fear of a German war of con
quest has become a real and Important
factor In shaping British politics and
that England Is already beginning to
look to America for support In cas* of
trouble. -
In President Harris’ opinion an Anglo-
Saxon alliance may grow out of the ter
ror with which Germany's naval con
struction program is now viewed in
America. Among the conditions noticed
by President Harris in particular were
the cleanliness of European cities, the
conveniences for railroad travel in Eng
land and governmental Interests in both
methods and affairs.
"Germany In particular is making ef
forts to gain the commercial supremacy
of the world and is forging to the front.
This country had the advantage of fre*
land, but Germany had the impetus- giv
en by the uniting of countries that be
fore had fought each other and had kept
one another from progressing.
“America's free land, however, ’result
ed in the formation of the bad habit of
extravagance. I beliey* th* present
prices are really a good thing for they
will teach Americans they must econo
mize. . • < je a
“The Germans are giving their business
methods a scientific attention which is
fast putting them in the lead. Th* -
ground Germany is gaining in the matter
of international business is proving th*
pactical advantage of the Teutonic
method.
"J was much surprised at the s.ncer*
apprehension with which even the most
intelligent British leaders, view th* ac
tion of Germany. The fear of Germany
is a force in England and its result is
the development of a sentiment favoring
an alliance with America. I would not
be surprised if such alliance should
some day be formed".
RUSSIAN POLICE ACTIVE

KIEV, Rusfda, Sept. 17.—The pollc*

sons were driven out or given a brief
period in which to make their exit.
Thirty-two Jews left voluntarily. In th*
same days 56 persons were expelled from
the suburbs of Solomenka and Demleff
ka.

ing to support Mayor Dahlman. of Oma
