k was signed at Juarez, the Madero Junta
at New Orleans shipped a large quantity
of arms and ammunition from Biloxi.
I Miss, to Yucatan for the purpose of
Pi. Starting trouble for Diaz-
V , "They started it all right, but now
they cannot stop it. After they were
■LX armed the Indians took to the woods
and 'commenced bushwhacking tactics,
and they are still at It. Every attempt
to induce them to cease fighting has
ft 1 failed.
•The Indians declare that all Mexicans
look alike to them, and that they pro
' pose to drive the Mexicans out of Yuca
tan. Many of the armed Indians have |
K crossed the border and It is expected ;
that they will cause the Guatemalan gov- I
S arnment serious trouble.”

THE SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit Required to Win the
People s Confidence. \
Hava you ever stoped to reason why
it is that so many products that are ex-
I tensively advertised, all at once drop out
of sight and are soon forgotten? The
reason is plain—the article did not fulfil
the promises of the manufacturer. This
applies more particularly to a medicine.
! A medicinal preparation that has real
'curative value almost wells itself, as like
‘an endless chain system the remedy is
i recommended by those who have been
I cured, to those who are m need of It.
In an interview on the subject a prom
inent local druggist says: “Take for ex
j ample Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, a pre
| paration I have sold for many years
land never hesitate to recommend, for
' In almost every case it shows Immediate
! results.as many of my customers testify.
[No other kidney remedy that I know of
I has so large a sale.’’
The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-
I Root is due to the fact that it fulfils
l every wish in overcoming kidney. liver
'and bladder diseases, corrects urinary
j troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
i which causes rheumatism.

MRS. FORD WILL FINISH
TESTIMONY THIJRSDM
Woman in the Case Will Tell
More About Looting the Big
Four
i
(By Associated Press.)
CINCINNATI, June 15,-Mrs. Jeanette
Stewart Ford was expected to conclude
her testimony today in the trial of
Edgar S. Cooke, who is charged with
embezzling $24,000 from the Big Four
Railway company.
Mrs. Ford had concluded her direct
testimony yesterday and the defense was
ready to begin the cross-examination.
Her physician, however, objected to her
being further questioned, saying that she
was testifying at the risk of her life.
Court thereupon adjourned for the day.
In order to facilitate the progress of
the trial, it has been arranged to hold
two sessions daily, morning and after
noon. Fourteen witnesses have been sub
penaed by the defense to appear today.
Most of them either live, or have lived,
in the vicinity of Sayler park, a suburb
of this city, where Cooke resided while
employed by the Big Four railroad.
What these witnesses will testify to
was a matter of considerable conjecture
about the court house. A subpena has
been issued for the manager of the safe |
deposit department of the Union Savings
Bank and Trust company, of this city.
He was ordered to appear with records
showing Mrs. Ford’s application for a
safety deposit box on August 8, 1901.

Graduates From Military
Academy Tuesday
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, D. C„ June 15.-
Frank B. Clay, of Marietta, was among
the cadets who graduated yesterday at
the United States military academy at
West Point.
He is a son of the late United States
Senator A. S. Clay. Along with the
other graduates, Mr. Clay becomes a
second lieutenant and will probably be
sent to the Philippines after a three
months’ leave, most of which he will
spend in Georgia with his mother.
Lieutenant Clay was appointed to the
West Point academy by Senator Bacon.
He was at that time a student at the
University of Georgia, and secured his
appointment without the knowledge of
his distinguished father. Senator Clay
never gave to any of his relatives the
patronage to which he was entitled, and
although his son was anxious to enter
the army, he wouldn’t give him the ap
pointment. The boy obtained the ap
pointment on his own merit and initia
tive fforn Senator Clay’s colleague, Mr.
Bacon.

CONN. CONGRESSMAN
WARBLES ABOUT WOOLENS
Sweet Singer of the House
Lifts His Voice on the
Tariff Measure
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, June 13.—Tariff argu
ment in poetry was injected into the de
bate in the house yesterday by Repre
sentative Reilly, Democrat, of Connecti
cut. Yielding to the muse, he gave 'the
proposed wool tariff reduction now un
der consideration his support in lines be
ginning :
“Statesman, spare my schedule,
Touch not a single line;
For years it has protected me,
Looked after me and mine.
“ ’Twas dear Sereno wrote it,
And made it our own way;
So let it, statesmen, stand.
My own dear schedule K. ,
“That old high tariff bunk,
Its wide protecting wings;
Cover wool and shoddy,
And tariff-armored things.
“Statesman forbear thy axe,
Cut not its trust-bound ties.
Oh! Spare, spare my woolen tax
Now towering to the skies.”
INDICTMENT STORY
DENIED BY TANNER
Declares He Has Had no Con
ference Regarding Cottop
Cases
CHARLOTTE. N. C., June 13.—With
reference to the story emanating from
Washington Saturday night, in which
he is alleged to have held a conference
with Ernest E. Baldwin, relative to the
possible Indictment of southern spin
ners, S. B. Tanner, one of the most
prominent of North Carolina mill men,
stated emphatically last night that the
story was absolutely without founda
tion, that he not only did not have any
conference with Mr Baldwin, but did
not know the lawyer and had never
seen him in his life.
“In regard to the cotton which the
manufacturers purchased in New York,"
he said, “we bought it for actual de
livery, received it, paid for it and con
verted it into yarn and cloth. We had
no idea the sellers would resist delivery
or consider it a crime, as they were not
compelled to sell if they did not have
the cotton.”
GOOD ROADS MEN
TO MEET AT STATESBORO
South Georgia Association
Will Hold Convention
June 29
WAYCROSS, Ga., June 14.—The officers
of the South Georgia Good Roads associ
ation are preparing for a great meeting
at Statesboro Thursday, June 29.
The Statesboro meeting will be the sec
ond one of the association, and in as
much as it will be the last one before the
meeting of the Georgia legislature, it will
be a very important one. It is almost
certain that the legislature will take
some action upon the recommendation of
Governor Brown that a state commission
of roads be established. Owing to the
fact that this matter is of the greatest
Importance to the counties of south
Georgia, the association will probably
take some action upon it.
From the information received from
numerous south Georgia counties things
bid fair to have a delegation from 75
per cent of them. Counties that have not
already sent $lO to the president, L. V.
Williams, Waycross, for membership in
the association should do so at once and
be enrolled.

(Special Dispatch to The Journal.) ■
MACON, Ga., June 14.—J. F. Herring,
a grocer, whose place of business is on
the Houston road, near Macon, was con
victed in the city court yesterday of vio- I
lating the state prohibition law. and was
sentenced by Judge Robert Hoigea to
serve five months in jail and seven
months on the chaingang.
The latter part of the sentence can be
avoided by paying a fine of SSO). The
severity of the sentence was due to the
fact that last summer Herring pleaded
guilty in the city court to violat ng the
prohibition law, and upon being fined SSOO
was warned not to appear before the
court on the same charge again, t

sheriff and a quantity of whisky found,

brother, and he was keeping it for ac
commodation. The sentence in this caze
is thought to be the heaviest ever im
posed in Georgia for a similar offense.
