THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1913.
WILSON SPENDS DAY
President-Elect, Mrs, Wilson
and Daughters See For
eigners Enter America
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
NEW YORK, Jan. 25.—With the air of
an expert investigator, President-elect
Wilson examined Uncle Sam’s immigra
tion bureau at Ellis island today. From
end to end of the huge building he went,
noting the methods for government in
spectors, watching keenly the expres
sion of those who gained or were denied
admission to thee United States and
quizzed afty and all with whom he came
into contact.
T am here for information; not for
thought,” he said.
Tn contrast to the impassive demeanor
of the president-elect was the impul
sive, alniost childless, interest of his two
daughters, Elanore and Jessei, who
were anxious to show the effect made
upon them by the actions of those de
tained in the rooms of the station.
Mr. Wilson, too, was demonstrative at
times, especially when the party stopped
to witness the meetings of those who
had come across the sea to join rela
tives and friends.
PERSONNEL OF PARTY.
The trip to Ellis island was suggested
by Mrs. Caroling B. Alexander, a per
sonal friend of Mrs. Wilson. The party
included Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Robinson,
Mayor H. Wittpen, of Jersey City; Mrs.
J. Borden Harriman, Willard D. Straight,
ex-S6nator Everett Colby and Mrs. Col
by, of New Jersey; Rev. T. A. Conover,
of Bernardsville, N. J.; Mrs. C. Grant
LaForge, Prof. Royal Meeker, of Prince
ton; Mrs. Wilson, wife of the president
elect, and the Misses Wilson.
Landing at the isuand shortly before
noon, the party was escorted to the
‘immigration building by Commissioner
of Immigration William H. Wiliams. In
quck succession they visited the de
partments where prospective Americans
are examined as to their physical and
mental condition. Governor Wilson
listened attentively while inspectors
asked a stout German farmer where he
came from, who his parents were, who
was the king of his country, how much
money he had and many other questions.
At the special board of inquiry the
president-elect witnessed the formal de
livery of an order for the deporation of
a man named Zimmerman, who had fail
ed to pass the physical test. Hurrying
from there to the dining hall, he stood
outside the door while fifty immigrants,
detained for examination, passed in re
view to the noonday meal.
THIS MAN HIRED
NEGROES TO KILL
MOTHER-IN-LAW
(By Associated Press.)
DECATUR, Ala., Jan. 25.—Gilbert W.
McCarley, a dentist of Priceville, was
convicted by' a jury today of attempt
ing to hire two negroes to kill his
mother-in-law, Mrs. Della Fennell.
A few months ago McCarley caused
the arrest of the two negroes, claiming
they robbed him. Investigation resulted
in the charges against him. Mrs. Fen
nell is said to be wealthy.
e of Herbs
Cures Catarrh
>mo
A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way and
It Coats Nothing to Try.
This preparation of herbs, leaves, flow
ers and berries (containing no tobaoeo
or h^bit-forming drugs) is either smoked
in an ordinary clean pipe or smoking
tube, and by drawing the medicated
smoke into the mouth and inhaling
into tfie lungs or sending it out through
the nostrils in a perfectly natural way,
the worst case of Catarrh can be eradi
cated.
It is not unpleasant to use, and at
the same time it is entirely harmless,
and can be used by man, woman or
child.
Just as Catarrh is contracted by
breathing cold or dust and germ-laden
air, just so this balmy antiseptic smok
ing remedy goes to all the affected
parts of the air passages of the head,
nose, throat and lungs. It can readily
fce seen why the ordinary treatments,
such as sprays, ointments, salves, liquid
or tablet medicines fail—they do not
and can not reach all the affeoted parts.
If you have catarrh of the nose,
throat or lungs, choking, stopped-up
feeling, colds, catarrhal headaches; if
you are given to hawking and spitting,
this simple yet scientific treatment
should cure you.
An illustrated book which goes thor
oughly into the whole question of the
cause, cur*' and prevention of catarrh
will, upon request, be sent you by Dr.
J. W. Blosser, 51 Walton street, At
lanta, Ga.
He will, also, mail you five days’ free
treatment. You will at once see that
it is a won erful remedy, and as it only
costs one dollar for the regular treat
ment, it is within the reach of every
one. It is not necessary to send any
money—simply send your name and ad
dress and the booklet and free trial
package will be mailed you immeciiately.

ON EXTRA SESSION
FOR TARIFF ALONE
Sentiment Against Beclouding
the Tariff issue With Other
Legislation Growing Strong
er in Congress
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 25.—The
question whether the special session to
be called by Governor Wilson imme
diately after inauguration will take up
any legislation besides the tariff is still
in abeyance. The lawmakers here are
awaiting the convenience of the presi
dent-elect.
The sentiment against beclouding the
tariff issue by injecting other impor
tant subjects like banking and currency
reform and Philippine independence is
on the increase among the members
of both branches of congress, particu
larly in th$ house, and it is strongest
among the men who aie classed as close
to Governor Wilsoh. They make the
point, though, that it does not follow
that they reflect the views of the gov
ernor.
Feeling in favor of Confining the ses
sion to the tariff is such that there is
considerable talk of not even organiz
ing the various committees of the next
house until the regular session in De
cember. This would be an effectual bar
rier to taking up other legislation, inas
much as the heaviest part of the work
of molding legislation is done in com
mittee and if there are no committees
such work would be incapable of per
formance.
THE PHILIPPINE QUESTION.
One month ago it semed to be quite
certain that the question of Philippine
liberation would be taken up at the
extra session. The declaration of Gov
ernor Wilson, at Staunton, that he
hoped the nation would rid itself of the
Philippine frontier as soon as possi
ble, was an intimation of what was on
his mind. The understanding was that
the president-elect was just as anxious
as Chairman Jones, of the house com
mittee on insular affairs, to pass the
Jones bill at the extraordinary session.
Since then, however, the governor has
had his conferences with national leg
islators at Trenton and it is understood
that it has been satisfactorily shown
to him that the Philippine matter is
not an emergency question; that it is
not nearly as pressing as is the bank
ing and currency and trust legislation
and that nothing will be lost or gained
by letting it go over to the regular
session. #
There is a well-founded impression
that these views have prevailed on the
president-elect and that he has aban
doned whatever intention he may have
had toward including Philippine free
dom in his call for the extra session.
The view taken here is that, despite
the explicit pledges of the Baltimore
and preceding Democratic platforms,
the question is bound to excite pro
longed debate in congress and wide
discussion in the country at large.
There are Democratic members of the
house who have no hesitancy in crit
icising the Jones bill, which gives lim
ited self-government for eight years
and then absolute independence.
IN AUGUSTA STRIAE CASE
Seven or Eight More Arrests
May Follow Indictments
In Murder Case
“RULE OF REASON" IS
SCORED BY ATTORNEY
Decision of Supreme Court Is
Censured in Speech Before
South Carolina Lawyers
(By Associated Press.) 1
COLUMBIA, S. C., Jan. 26.—In a vig
orous declaration In favor of a rigid
application of the anti-trust law, Rob
ert L. Henry, of Texas, chairman of
the rules committee of the house, de
livered the annual address to the South
Carolina Bar association here Thurs
day night.
He discussed “the rule of reason” as
laid down by the supreme court in the
Standard Oil and tobacco cases, and
declared that congress by legislative en
actment should stop the breach that
judicial legislation has made. The Sher
man act. he thought, should be retained
with all its present efficiency and en
tirely unimpaired.
In discussing the defects of the law,
he thought the “rule of reason” should
be eliminated and suggested imprison
ment for violators of the statutes as
the remedy for disrespect of it. He
predicted problems in federal legislation
which must be met during the Wilson
administration and prophesied that the
new president will prove equal to the
task.
The bar association elected the follow
ing officers: «
OFFICERS ARE NAMED.
President, Ralph K. Carson, Spartan
burg; vice presidents. M. M. Mann, St.
Matthews, S. C.; E. M. Giles, Aiken;
R. G. Purdy, Sumter; W. F. Stevenson,

(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
AUGUSTA, Ga., Jan. 25.—Since the in
dictment by the Richmond county gr^nd
jury this week of three men charged
with having participated in the killing
of a motorman stike-breaker during the
s'reet car strike here last fall, it de
velops that a dozen or more strikers
and their sympathizers were banded in
a conspiracy to kill several of the men
who had taken their places upon the
cars, and that they wer e only deterred
from doing so by reason of the fact
that they blundered in the first attack
which they made upon a car crew, this
blunder making it necessary for them
to make a quick getaway.
It was learned today that startling
developments are expected during the
next forty-eight hours and that seven
or eight more arrests will probably be
made. The Burns’ detectives who are
at work upon the case and whose efforts
have resulted in indictments agrflnst
Lester R. Young and J. Gary Johnson,
motormen in the employ of Augusta
Street Railway company, and William
E. Kennedy, a carpenter, who Is known
to have been a stike sympathizer* decline
-o give out any information, but inti
mate that the case has assumed much
larger proportions than were at first
ix.uicated.
SLOAN FOUND GUILTY;
GETS LIFE SENTENCE
Man Stood Trial Wearing Suit
of Clothes Bought With
Money Stolen From Miser
Robert L. Sloan, a teamster, Was
sentenced to life imprisonment by
Jiudge L. S. Roan, of the criminal di
vision of the superior court, Friday
morning, having been found guilty by a
jury on Thursday of the murder of Will
Franklin, an aged peddler, who had
been a familiar figure on the streets of
Atlanta for a score of years.
Sloan appeared in court wearing a
suit of clothes which he is alleged to
have purchased with money stolen from
the man he has been convicted of slay
ing, and he watched with intense in
terest every move in the trial of his
case.
The state charged that Sloan slew
the peddler to. steal his hoarded gold in
order that he might gratify a young
woman’s taste for finery. Despite thitf
charge, the man’s family stood brave
ly by him, and his wife and four chil
dren remained in the court room
throughout the several hours of the
trial.
Franklin, who had hoarded his sav
ings, mostly gold, for many years, and
had an amount variously estimated at
from $600 to $2,000, in his little De
catur street shack, Was murdered in No
vember. A short time afterwards Frank
Risley, better known as “Shot,” was
arrested by the police, who bad obtain
ed little evidence against him. few
days later Sloan was arrested by de
tectives, and he made a statement in
which he admitted that he was present
at the murder, but declared that he
was innocent of complicity. He said
that Risley asked him to go to the
peddler to buy apples and that while
there a dispute arose and Risley struck
Franklin with a heavy window weight.
BUSY DAYS IN VALDOSTA
MANY RETURN TO FARM
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
VALDOSTA, Ga., Jan. 21.—'This has
been one of the busiest weeks the farm
ers of south Georgia have had In the
past twelve months. .The weather has
been ideal for out-of-door work and
every farm In this section has shown
scenes of unusual activity. Reports in
dicate that the farmers and their sons
are going to do more work this year
than ever before. Many young white
men who have had jobs at sawmills
and turpentine camps have returned to
the farm to take the place of colored
labor, which has gotten high in price
and altogether unreliable. The result is
that many of the mills are hunting for
laborers to take the places of the white
men who have gone back to the farms.
Labor recruiters are plentiful and the
.demand for mill labor is great on ac
count of the fact that much of It has
gone to the plantations again.

BANK FAILS; DIRECTORS
Directors National Bank Say
Cashier Confessed to Em
bezzlement of $82,000
(By Associated Ptobs.)
HIGH BRIDGE, N. J. Jan. 24—Fed
eral bank examiners were called here
today to investigate the alleged em
bezzlement of $82,000 from the funds of
the First National bank of High Bridge,
which suddenly closed its doors yes
terday.
The directors of the bank declared
that Abraham L. Beavers, the cashier,
confessed to having taken $82,000 of the
bank’s money and perhaps as much as
$100,000 to use as margins for stock
speculations in which he had lost.
According to the directors, Beavers
said he had taken $160,000 worth of
securities and hypothecated them with
C. I. Hudson & Co,, members of the
New York stock exchange.
Beavers is alleged to have told the
directors of this on Monday, but he and
his wife have since been missing. Beav
ers is treasurer of a church here and
has been considered a devout member.
The bank was organized in 1900 with
a capital of $30,000. Beavers was one
of the founders and has been given
much of the credit for the success of
the bank. The loss through the alleged
embezzlement is in part offset by $25,-
000 worth of property which he turned
over to the bank.

TAFT DEFENDS ATTITUDE
Denies That There Is Anything
Dishonorable in Proposal
of Administration
(By Associated Press.)
BALTIMORE, Md. f Jan. 25.—President
Taft, speaking tonight at the annual
banquet of the Merchants and Manufac
turers’ association, defended the admin
istration’s attitude in the Panama canal
disagreement with England, declared its
position was not unpatriotic or dishonor
able, and said there was no reason or
any one to oppose the proposal for arbi
tration by an impartial tribunal.
“Whether you call it a subsidy or not,
I am in favor of making tne transporta
tion rates between the coasts through
the Panama canal lower,” said the presi
dent. “Now the question is, can we do
that under our international obligations?
“If we are bound not to exempt coast
wise vessels, we can agree to submit the
question to an impartial tribunal.
“I’m willing to admit there are argu
ments on the other side.
“We are willing, however, to submit
our views to arbitration. There is noth
ing in the attitude of the administration,
as I have stated it to show that we have
been dishonorable. There is nothing to
show a disposition to evade and we are
willing to rest our case with a tribunal
that is impartial.”
The president concluded his speech
with an appeal for constitutional gov
ernment endangered he said in the last
few months by those who proposed rem
edies but who could not furnish concrete
examples of their proposed reforms.
Attorney General Wickersham was
another speaker. The president left
about 11 o’clock for Washington.

WASHINGTON, Jai. 25.—Secretary
of State Knox’s diplomatic note to the.
British government concerning free
tolls for American coast-wise shipping,
as provided in the Panama canal bill,
has cause^l a flurry among many Demo
crats of congress.
The secretary of state proves by
mathematical calculation that the free
toll provision is a subsidy for Amer
ican shipping. This is Just what Con
gressman Adamson, and others who op-
p^ ed free tolls, have contended from
the beginning of the agitation. The
Democratic party is on record as unal
terably opposed to any sort of a ship
subsidy.
Congressman Adamson, who was in
charge of tho Panama canal legislation
in his capacity as chairman of the in
terstate comerce committee of the
house, commented upon Secretary Knox’s
note today before he left for Phila
delphia to deliver an address tonight on
the canal tolls question. He will speak
before the Academy of Political Arts
and Science and will amplify the inter
view he gave out here today against free
tolls.
The Georgia congressman expressed
the belief that President-elect Wilson
will urge congress to repeal the free
tolls provision of the canal act and
threby preserve the national honor and.
escape an embarrassing diplomatlo sit
uation with Great Britain.

disorders. Of course it did not then bear its present name, but the formula
for compounding it was just what it is today, and its results then as now,
entirely satisfactory to those who used it. S. S. S. is made entirely of roots,
herbs and barks without the addition of a particle of mineral. It is the
widest known and the best acting blood purifier before the public today.
This great remedy cures Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores and Ulcers, 9km
Diseases, Scrofula, Specific Blood Poison and any and all blood infeetkoma
and impurities. No one need fear to use S. S. S. It is perfectly safe for
any system, and its fine vegetable tonic effects especially recommend Ik to
all weak, debilitated persons who may be in need of a blood purifier.
S. S. S. goes into the circulation and removes every parfiele of impurity,
humor or poison from the blood. S. S. S. acts most pleasantly and bene
ficially on the stomach, assists in
toning up the digestive members,
and contributes in every way to the
blessing of strong, robust health.
If you are suffering from any of the
above troubles, or if your system
shows evidence of being in a weak
or run-down condition, you could not do better than take a course of S. S. S„
as it will thoroughly aud permanently cure any blood disease, no matter in
what stage. Write for free book on the blood and any medical advice you
wish. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO, ATLANTA. GA.
