P 'T don’t recall.” Mr. Untermyer asked if anything was said about the high rate of call money and the effect on the stock exchange of the failure to get money here. Mr. tig ■ Cortelyou started to give an explanation and was asked sharply to reply to the question. “You know, Mr. Untermyer,” he said, “there are question 1 cannot answer yes < or no without doing myself an injus tice. 1 have a right to make an explan- E ation of my position and I propose to ST exert this right.” Mr. Cortelyou finally said he probably did have such a discussion, but could B not recall the details. & Mr. Cortelyou, upon being pressed for a list of the banks in which the $25,- 889,000 was deposited, finally referred Mr. Uptermeyer to the records of the treasury department.

HUMAN SIDE OF CHICAGO FIGHT HUMOROUSLY SEEN BY EDNA FERBER BY EDNA FERBER. (Copyright. 1912, The Associated News papers.) CHICAGO. June 15—For eight hours, beginning at 9 o’clock this morning, Chi cago changed its motto from. “I will" to "I wait.” Heat and humidity settled down like a stifling blanket upon the convention city. Chicago took off its vast and waited. It eaaed its collar, and wait ed. I< fanned itself with newspapers and drank cool things out of high glasses, and waited. The Congress hotel lobby was like a Turkiah hath, and the crowd in it sweltered and watted. Upper Mich igan avenue was banked with the waiting thousands. Every time a band played the crowd quivered with expectancy. The atmosphere was just what ‘it used to be back In your own home town on circus day/ when It was newsed around that the parade had left the circus ground and was coming on Cherry street. I'p to the Florentine room, where the heat was sickening and the air unbearable, Gov ernor Stubbs waited, and while he wait ed he mounted a platform and talked about the man for whom the whole city was keeping one eye on the door. Gov ernor Stubbs looked like a picture of one of the prophets as he stood and rharangued, his soft fluff of a pa'e pink hair making a halo effect about his head. Only his modish (for Stubbs) pale gray summer suit marred the old testa ment effect. T|te heat grew as the afternoon waned. The crowd amused itl self with shouting Its new slogan of "Fight ’em,’ " ’Em being the gentlemen who arg chauffeuring the steam'roller. Then In a minute, a roar went up, a fa miliar face, browned by weeks of out door campaigning, appeared on the bal cony at the Michigan side of the Con gress hotel. ROOSEVELT HAD COME. The coming of Roosevelt changed the complexion of the crowds that swarmed about the convention head quarters. It was a Saturday afternoon half holiday crowd with nothing states manlike about it. It sacrificed ita half day of baseball or rowing or picnics in the park to its desire to see the colo nel. That desire gratified, it melted, leaving Michigan avenue and the hotel headquarters to the delegates again. It takes a half day of mingling with the political powers to discover that they are not all as busy as they* seem. After the eye and brain have accustomed themselves to the bewildering, shift ing. jostling mob of strangers, all look ing as though weighted with the se crets of state, there comes a sneaking suspicion that what they are doing isn’t always so hatr-ralsingly impor tant after all. At the northwest corner of the Con gress hotel lobby are the long distance telephone booths. An important look ing personage with" eyeglasses and a breastplate of badges and medals COLQUITT PLANS BILLS FOR NEXT LEGISLATURE (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) MOULTRIE. Ga., June 14.—Colquitt county la to figure in the doings of the next session of the legislature in Au gust, according to notices which have been pobted at the court house here. There will be no less than three distinct bills introduced for the benefit of dif ferent parts of the county, and the chief one will be one to provide for the in corporation of Doerun as a city. Those behind the move are the officials and business men of the city, and the main one behind the new move is Mayor James L. Dowling. He states the char ter Is merely to get more privileges, but are people who have canvassed the situation who say Doerun wants a city court of her own. At the legislative session there will be a bill for a change in the achool laws of the city of Moultrie and also for the establishment of a separate •chool fftstrict at Berlin. The latter town haa some 800 people and their schools are under the supervision of the county commissioner of schools. GUINEA PIG’S CHEST OR LION’S CHEST—WHICH? (Special Cable « - - Journal.) LONDON. June —The man in the street cares little whether the tuberele bacillus ia the aetual cause of consump tion (as the orthodox in the profession insist) or whether it only settles and flourishes in the lunga after the disease has begun its ravages. What he wants to know is how he can escape thia ter rible scourge or, when attacked, how he can soonest cast it from the system. A little book written by a layman, Mr. Arthur Lovell, entitled “A New Light on Consumption,” deals with these essential points in away well worth consideration to the general pub lic. The names of a learned committee of scientists who are to investigate the need for sens tor ia for combating con sumption under the insurance act, have just been announced. The man who in the process of growth reaches maturity with a "guinea pig cheat” rather than a “lion chest,’ must necessarily be constantly on a short oxygen nation. CHARLOTTE ENFORCES STRICT PROHIBITION (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) CHARLOTTE. N. C., June 14 —Hav ing voted to refuse license to drug stores to sell liquor of any descrip tion after July 1, even on a doctor s prescription, the board of aidermen took another decisive step last night lin the direction of absolute prohibi tion when they required that every or ganization, chartered or unchartered, of tpen who have the privilege of keep ing liquors in lockers, shall furnish a $5,080 justified bond with three sure ties. which shall be forfeited if any : officer, employe or member of the club shall be found guilty df violating any state or municipal statute regulating the sale of liquor. Since the city must license the clubs j in- order to regulate them, it was voted I to impose a nominal tax of $25 as li cense fee. and charge no tax for the lockers. This provision also goes into ! effect July 1. PIPE LINES DECLARED COMMON CARRIERS _______ (By Associated Eresa.)

THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA„ TUESDAY, JUNE 18, 1912. 11 1 — i adorning his coat lapels, rushes up to the operator. He gives his number. He wants New York. A curious little group of onlookers gaze at him re spectfully. “This is important, understand?” says the personage, addressing the op erator. "Get ’em for me right away; I'll stick right here until you do.” GOOD DEAL OF BLUFF. The operator bends all his energies to getting the New York call. The im portant personage stands by and twid dles his fingers and gazes at his watch. “Probably going to talk to Taft, or somebody." whispers someone around the switchboard. The personage's num ber is called. He rushes into Booth 4, one of the over-eager listeners edges near the door. He holds his breath. This is what he hears: "Hello, Mary. Thought I’d telephone instead of wiring, because I wanted to hear the sound of your voice. You and the kids all right? Say, Il's hotter than blazes here. I'm just going in to dinner, and say, Mary, I'd give ten dollars if I could just set my teeth into a piece of your fresh cherry pie." He coes out of the both, still looking important and mysterious. “What'd he say." demands the little crowd of the listener. The one who had overheard shakes his head. "I dunno’ he says, "he was talking in cipher code." GH YOU SUFFRAGETTE. For that matter, the conversation of the women who are here for the conven tion is just as apt to be dtsilluioning. The California headquarters are in the auditorium. California sends two women delegates to the convention. Seeing Mrs. Isabella Blaney, of Pasadena, talking to a llitle group of women, anyone with a news nose would scent politics and suf frage, at least. The look on their faces in earnest, rapt, intense. The thing to do is to gumshoe up, look carefully the other way, as though searching for a friend at the other end of the lobby, and drink In the conversation. “If we d only know sooner,” says one woman, in a half wail. “Now. that sounds newsy, doesn’t it?” “We might have known the change would come now. It was to be expected, after all these months,” another woman in the group puts in, ruefully. A third speaks up. She shows real spirit. "Perhaps It isn’t too late, even yet,” she says. "Something might be done.” "No.” says the first woman, firmly. “To late. But I thought they’d surely be successful. That's why I had mine made that way. I was sure that after wearing 'em so tight you couldn’t sit down in ’em ail last summer and winter, that the Pannier effect wo&ld take. But it hasn’t, and I had my green made that way, and you can’t make a hobble out of a Pannier." EASTERN CAPITALISTS PLAN TROLLEY LINES (Sy Associated Pre**.) BFAKTANBUKG, S. C., June 15. — A. B.

Governor Blease .Changes Day for Executions—Electric Chair Ready August 1 (By Staff Correspondent.) JOURNAL BUREAU, Jerome Hotel. COLUMBIA, S. C., June 15.—Friday will no longer be bangman’s day in South Carolina, so far as Governor Blease has power to fix execution days. The hangman is out of it altogether, for the state has substituted the elec tric chair for the gallows, but since the governor has declared himself against Friday for executions, other days of the week will be made to share the odium whlcn has long been at tached Ito this date alone. Because the new electric chair will not be com pleted before August 1 the execution of five condemned prisoners had to be postponed, and in issuing the commu tations the governor distributed them over the various days of the week.-, "I know of no law,” states the gov ernor, “requiring people to be executed pn Friday and I see no good reason why this particular day of the week should be picked out for that purpose. Friday Is as good a day as any other and I see no reason to condemn it as ‘Death Day.’ ” Among the commutations is that of Samuel N. Hyde, the Anderson county wife murderer, whose day of execution is now set for September 3. He is the last of the five to be executed and will thus be deprived of his wish to be the first to “break in” the new electric chair. All the others are ne groes and their execution days are as follows: William Reed, August 6; Isaiah Butler, August 14; John Cole, August 22; Ernest Mulwee, August 30. GRACE HAS NO PROOF THAT BLEASE RECEIVED GRAFT (By Staff Correspondent.) JOURNAL BUREAU, Jerome Hotel. COLUMBIA, S. C., June 15.—" We wonder what proof Mayor John P. Grace, of Charleston; S. C., has of his charges of graft against Governor Blease.” This is the question most asked with reference to the sensational statements that hhve been appearing in the may or's paper, Common Sense, and have stirred the state, and on account of which Mr. Grace has been summoned to appear before the dispensary inves tigating committee. “If the charges are proved it will kill Blease politically, blit If they fall flat, It will help him,” so has run the com ments. In a statement yesterday the gov ernor Renounced Mr. Grace as a liar and a coward. In today’s issue of the Common Sense Ms. Grace makes reply in which he says he has no proof that the governor personally received any graft, but has evidence of the utmost circumstantiality tending to trace it to him. Mr. Grace's reply is as follows: , “We have said that we traced this graft practically yp to the governor himself. It will be noted that what the governor says in reply is that any one who states that he had received graft from Charleston blind tigers is a liar and a coward. This is not the point. Upon it therg can be no issue between the governor and us. If we had competent to show that the governor did himfielf in person receive this graft, our readers may rest as sured that we would say it. But we have made no such claim. What we have said, and caff abundantly prove, is that the constables here in Charleston have Received it and ht.ve organized a perfect system of graft. Their actions have been coincident with the comings and goings of certain persons and per sonages whose movements point with utmost circumstantiality to our conclu sion that the graft is traced practi cally up to the governor himself upon the same character of evidence we would under oath And guilty a person accused of murdef.” FOWLE RANNOUNCES ‘ FOR (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
