t THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA„ TUESDAY, JANUARY 28, 1913. MMM IS Mi CESPITE1S FOES Opposition Materialized in South Carolina General As sembly, as Forecast, but the Veteran Senator Won Out (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) COLUMBIA. S. C.. Jaft. 28.—The , threatened opposition to Senator B. R. Tillman collapsed when it failed to re ceive the support expected and the two houses of the general assembly, ballot ing separately, re-elected him unani mously this morning for the fourth time , as United States senator from South Carolina, for the full term beginning Marcn 4. Tomorrow the two houses will meet in joint session to ratify this choice. In the senate last night the resent ment against Senator Tillman because of his charge that the railroads domi nated the general assembly broke out afresh and in a speech in which he scored the veteran, Sehator Young, of Union, suggested that the election of Senator Tillman be postponed until he could either prove his charges or re tract them. “Self-respect demands that we do this,” exclaimed the Union senator, de nouncing the charges as outrageous. He suggested that votes be scattered among county favorites in order to postpone election until Senator Tillman made an swer to the resolution calling on him for proof of his charges. Several sena tors took part in the debate and the senior senator was roundly scored. OPPOSITION COLLAPSED. This morning it was thought that the fight against electing Tillman would be renewed, but those behind it found that it did not meet with any support. Sev eral favored the matter, but the over whelming majority held to the view that they were bound to re-elect Mr. Till man, as he was the choice of the primary vote. This view was followed and the opposition to him ceased. Before casting his vote for Tillman, Senator Young said that he did so under protest and -because he was the agent of the people of Union county.

Smoke of Herbs Cures Catarrh A Simple, Safe, Reliable Way and It Costs Nothing to Try. This preparation of herbs, leaves, flow ers and berries (containing no tobacco or habit-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 the 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 .he 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 la seen why the ordinary treatments, such as sprays, ointments, salves, liquid or tablet medicines fail—they do not and ckn not reach all the affected 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, cu r ' and prevention of catarrh will, upon request, be sent you by Dr. J. W. Blosser, 51 Walton street, At lanta, Ga. He will, aiso, mail you five days’ free treatment. You will at once see that l it is a wor erful remedy, and "as it only costs one dollar for the regular treat ment, it is within the reach of every one.

Drummond and Thirty Other Militant Suffragettes Sentenced to Fourteen Days in Prison (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Jan. 29.—“General” Mrs. Drummond and thirty other militant suffragettes will spend the next four teen days in jail because of their de termination i to force David-Lloyd George, chancellor of the exchequer, to receive tnem as a deputation in the nouse of commons last evening. All the prisoners declared in court after they were sentenced that iney would immediately start a “hunger strike.” Mrs. Drummond complained that the police handled her roughly when she was. arrested. Sli3 declared tne patrol man had thrown her in the mud. “It is now war to the knife, she tola the magistrate, and continued; “You and Mr. Lloyd-George have a lot oi trouble ahead of you.' "You will have to do the dirty work, and you will have plenty of it.” The women all refused the option which was offered them of paying a -fine instead of going to prison. MANY RIOTS. While a deputation, which the chancel lor of the exchequer, David Lloyd- George, had refused to see until today was trying to force its way into par liament last night against an over whelming force of police, and women were being arrest&d for resisting the of ficers, the other bands of women went through Whitehall breaking windows of the government offices, and througn Cockspur street, where the great plate glass windows in the establishments of shipping companies were ruthlessly smashed. The women also visited Oxford, Re gent and other streets in the shopping district, where similar damage was dune. Later, mail boxes were attacked, quanti ties of liquid, being poured into them. In the outlying suburbs, too, the suf fragettes damaged property. Thirty-one women were arrested in the vicinity of .the parliament building, bjit were allowed out on bail after the ho^Se rose. * Most of the police stations had one or more prisoners charged with destroying property. 1 he wildest excitement prevailed, and besides protecting property and arrest ing women engaged in window smasn- ing, or who refused to move on when ordered, the police had the greatest dif ficulty in protecting the women from an unruly c/owd of youths who gath ered and jostled every woman wearing suffragette colors. In several cases the women were rcughly handled. An attempt to duck four of them in. the fountain in Tra falgar square was frustrated by a po lice *posse which had to ride through the crowd. The entire deputation of thirty-one women, who attempted to make their way into the house of commons to in terview . Chancellor Lloyd-George was arrested. Thd prisoners included Mrs. Drummond and Sylvia Pankju-rrst who u\;n:hecl in front. Before starting on mission, the delegates listened to addresses by Mrs. Emmeline Pank- liurst and other leaders. Mrs. I’ankhurst said the withdrawal of the franchise bill, including the speaker’s ruling, was a plot decided on long ago, and Premier Asquith was aware of it. “The answer to this treachery',” she said, “is ’militancy.’ ” Sylvia Pankhurst declared their in tention was to hold the speaker in the chair and leave Mr. Asquith on the bench and with this the deputation started. The police gave them safe escort as far as the entrance of par liament, when an inspector informed them that the chancellor of the ex chequer would be unable to see them until morning. Mrs. Drummond retorted: “This is tomfoolery. If you do not lot us in there will be trouble.” BURGLAR LEFT MINISTER HIS GOAT TO PREACH IN Rev, W, C, Schaeffer's Home Entered Tuesday Afternoon., Minister's Clothes Stolen A burglar, who evidently had some respect for the cloth, broke into the home of Rev. \V. C. Schaeffer, 16,6 Trin ity avenue, Tuesday afternoon between 4:30 and 5 o’clock, and made away with all of the minister’s clothes except his frock coat. Dr. Schaeffer occupies the pulpit of the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer, and his residence is next door to the church. There was no one in the house when the burglar called. He entered by break ing the glass to a rear window, which cannot be seen from the street. The latch was then undone, and once inside the intruder took hisT’tLne and gathered about all. of Dr. Schaeffer's clothes. When the minister returned he found that five pairs of trousers were miss ing, as well as a perfectly new tailored suit, several waistboats, and two pairs of shoes. Dr. Schr er was out riding Tuesday afternoon, arid a member of the family explained that he always donned his old clothes for these outings in the saddle. For this reason his b^st clothes were all at home when the burglar called. The burglar attempted to break into the buffet where the silver was locked up, but failed. The knobs were knocked off the drawers. He then visited every room in the house in search o'’ money, but all valuables were under lock and key. The man was traced by his foot prints through the house. Rains Costing: Money ANNISTON, Ala Jan. 28.—The rains tvhich have been falling in Anniston and the Anniston district for several days are costing money: The streets have suffered severely and several small bridges have been washed away In va rious* sections of the city by swollen streams. Express and F. 0. Records Show Largest Increase 1912 JACKSONVILLE, Fla., Jan. 27, 1913.—The Express and Post Office records show that 14. L. Sprinkle Distilling Co., Jacksonville, Fla., and Girard, Ala., did the largest mail order business in south in the year 1912. A newspaper reporter asked the reason why such large increase in business and was ad vised. Small profits, better goods ana uest service.—(Advt.) , WORKING MAN’S MONEY SCALE ADVOCATED IN SOUTH CAROLINA COLUMBIA, S. C., Jan. 29.—The gen eral assembly in joint session today re-elected D. J. Griffith, superintendent of the state penitentiary, by an over whelming vote, and re-elected A. D. j Sanders, John G. Mibley and Jasper M. Smith, as members of the penitentiary board. Mess^. T. Austin Wilcox and W. M. Hamer were chosen as trustees of the University of South Carolina, to’ fill vacancies caused by one death and one resignation. The house spent the entire morning fighting over the matter of appointing a bill to appoint a committee to in- j vestigate the matter of a working man’s compensation, looking to the introduc tion of a bill for this purpose, a meas ure modeled on the Michigan law has already been introduced in 'the house and several employers liability meas- j ures have been proposed. The house j refused to re-commit the bill and also j refused to let it pass third reading. \ The matter will come up again and will! cause another hot debate. j The senate got in an hour’s good] work before the time for the joint as- : sembly. The bills calling for elections on the question of establishing dispen saries in a number of counties were made special orders for tomorrow im mediately following third, reading bills. The bill permitting banks to invest three-fourths of their capital and de posits in real estate:.mortgages passed third reading after a sharp debate and was sent to the house. Among new bills introduced was a joint resolution by Senator McLaurin providing for the appointment of a com mission to investigate the practicability and advisability of the -cost of work ing the limestone and phosphate mines with convict labor. His bill providing for the sale of the state farms and placing the convicts on the public roads received an unfavorable report. President Smith appointed Senators Weston, Young and Goodwin as the senate members of thq committee to in vestigate the charges against President Mitchell, of the state university, pre ferred by the governor on information furnished him by President Johnson, of Winthrop. ' Smith Called for Aye and Nay Vote, Senate Tied and Held No Executive Session BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The Repub lican plan for forcing consideration of the 2,000 nominations President Taft has sent to the senate was checked to day by the Democrats. A motion for an executive session was defeated by a vote of 31 to 31. Senators Lafollette, Poindexter and Bristow voted with the Democrats against the motion, thus in dicating that the Republican leadership is unable to hold its forces intact, de spite the caucus action yesterday. When Senator Cullom moved an exeo- utive session Senator Hoke Smith moved as a substitute that the senate proceed to the consideration of his agricultural bill. This motion was ruled out of or der by the chair, whereupon the Geor gia man called the ayes and nays on Senator Cullom’s motion. Both Republicans and Democrats real ized the closeness of the division, and the leaders of each party exerted them selves to muster their entire strength. The roll call was prolonged, while pages and messengers were sent scurrying about the capitol and through the office building tc round up the tardy senators. The senators who were present and pair ed transferred these pairs to absent members, and the result was a tie vote, defeating the Cullom motion. The senate then agreed to Senator Smith’s motion for the consideration of his agricultural bill. It is probable, however, that another attempt will be made later in the day to force an ex ecutive session, provided the Republi cans can catch the Democrats napping. Anticipating another executive ses sion todaj' the Democrats came to the senate chamber this morning prepared to continue their filibustering tactics against the consideration of nomina tions. Senators Smith and John Sharp Wil liams, who led the filibuster yesterday were armed with ammunition to con tinue their work. The former had a formidable array of books, pamphlets and documents, while the latter had probably a hundred newspaper cartoons of a political nature, which he intended discussing. Yesterday Mr. Williams entertained the senate for a couple of hours with a discussion of the aeroplane and Sena tor Smith read lengthy extrarts about the horse from cattle books. He also went into agriculture extensively. While the Republicans realize the hopelessness of confirming the Taft nominees, it is their purpose to continue hammering away every day, trying to force an executive session. The presi dent himself has been informed, of the impossioility of putting over his nomi nees, but he will continue to send them in just the same. He is not worrying a" great deal over the matter. RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA ON VERGE OF RUPTUR State of Affairs Over Albania Regarded as Delicate in the Extreme / (By Associated Press.) ST. PETERSBURG, Jan. 29—The state of affairs betwen Russia and Austria is regarded here as delicate in the extreme. The war party is now in the saddle in Austria and Russia has 1,600,- 00 men serving with the colors. The trouble is over the boundaries of Albania. As explained by a high dip lomatic official in the Bourse Gazette, Russia has recognized in an agreement with Austria that tile Turkish fortress of Scutari and Janina belong to the future Albanian nation. The condition is to be imposed, how ever, that the military and economic interests of the adjacent of the Monte negro and Greek population be similarly guaranteed. It is thought that this cun be ac complished by dismantling the fortifica tions of the two cities and allowing the free passage of goods. Russia, on the ottijer hand, the diplo mat declared, regards , Prisrend, Jak- osa and Ipek as belonging to Servia. The position thus taken by Russia will enormously increase the difficulties of the Russian foreign office in coping with public opinion, which, is likely to re gard the abandonment of Scutari and Janina as an unnecessary concession to Austria and a sacrifice of Slav inter ests. The seriousness of the situation arises from the fact that Austria, by her suc cess in this respect, may. be encouraged to make further demands. The Russian foreign office hopes, however, that Austria will now adopt a conciliatory attitude.;., The absence of any.definite indication that she will do .this is probably the reason why Russia >h%s not taken any steps to reduce her .^rjupy to its normal proportions in spite" of several an nouncements, from ..Vienna of the dismis sal of reservists there, COMPENSATION ACT UP ON NEXT SATURDAY WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—The house judiciary committee today voted unani mously to take up the workmen’s com pensation and employers’ liability act next Saturday and dispose of It before adjournment on that day. The measure has passed the senate. GOVERNMENT IS READY TO CLOSE STEEL SUIT Greatest Nerve Vitalizer Known 50: PACKAGE SENT FREE Practically All the Evidence Against United States Steel Corporation Is in (By Associated Press.) NEW ‘YORK, Jan. 29.—The case of the government, in its suit to dissolve the United States Steel corporation will practically close with today’s session. Attorneys for the steel corporation an nounced they hoped to proceed with their side of the case some time in March P. H. Nelson, an iron ore expert, who testified yesterday that the steel cor poration paid too high a price when it leased the Hill ore lands was recalled at today's hearing. He was cross-examined by Frederick R. Kellogg, counsel for the trustees of the Hill lands, who are defendants In the suit. Nelson reiterated that the average royalties paid for the leasrng of ore in the lake Superior district were about 45 cents a ton, compared with royalties of 83 cents a ton paid to the Hill trus tees by 1 the steel corporation. This was in 1907. The witness ad mitted that in 1909 and 1910, properties containing 2,000,000 tons of ore were leased for as high as $1.35 a ton by in dependent interests. KILL INCOME TAX LAN Legislative Committee Reports Approval Would Be Unwise for the State HARRISBURG, Pa., Jan. 28 j—A legis lative committee, which has spent two years considering the revision of the corporation and revenue laws, presented its report today, together with twenty bills which the committee recommends be enacted into law. The committee recommends that the proposed Federal income tax amendment be not approved by Pennsylvania. The committee says in part: “Your committee is of the opinion that this change in the’relation between the states and the Federal government is unwise and that it would be unwise for Pennsylvania to lend her approval to it. because, as one of the wealthy states, she would bear far more than her proper share of the burden.” Kellogg’s Sanitone Wafers a Re cent Discovery, This Most Ef fective Nerve Strengthener for Men and Women Ever Found by Science.

Street City State (Advt.) The Non-Combatants Slain Throughout European Tur key During Present War With Balkans Number Thousands (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Jan. 29.—The Constantino ple correspondent of the Times, after examining the charges and counter charges of massacres, arrives at the conclusion that Moslems and Christians are equally blamable. He estimates that in the whole of European Turkey 20,000 Moslem and 15,000 Christian non- combatants have been killed during the war, and considers that Europe would be better employed in relieving the suf fering of the survivors than in at tempting to fix responsibility for the massacres. Allies Deliver Note to Turkish Representative (By Associated Press.) LONDON, Jan. 29.—The note drafted by peace delegates of the allies was de livered by Stojan Novakovitch, head of the Servian delegation, to Rechad Pasha shortly after noon today. The determining factor impelling the allies to this course of action was the delivery of reports during the night and again this morning of grave ferment among the Turkish troops stationed on the Tchatalja lines, a large portion of whom appear to be unwilling to follow 7 the lead of the Young Turks. It is considered here that in view of these internal complications in Turkey, Mahmoud Sheftet Pasha, the grand vizier, may yield before the energetic act of the allies. WARSHIPS AT CONSTANTINOPLE. The gravity of the situation at Con stantinople is shown by the large naval forces concentrated by the European powers at the entrance to the Dardanal- les. Even Austria-Hungary, which in the past has refused to join the other powers in naval coercive measures, has now 7 ordered two warships to be in readi ness to start for the east at any mo ment. While the clouds are gathering over Constantinople, the astronomers who make a study of the European firma ment consider that the general peace of Europe is no longer iff danger. As a proof of this, they point out that Italy has just disbanded an army of 100,000 soldiers who served in Tripoli.

BINS POOYE FATAL TO LITTLE EZMA SUMMERS 11-Year-0ld Girl Dies From Injuries Received While Saving Brother’s Life After suffering intense pain - from burns received early Tuesday after noon in saving her little brother from flames which enveloped him, little elev en-year-old Ezma Summers passed away at 4 o’clock Wednesday morning at the Grady hospital. The accident occurred at their home, 19 Rheinhardt street. The three-year- old boy had thrown a can of kerosene into an open grate fire. The blaze caught his dress and it was only by the timely aid of his sister, who rushed in from the next room and beat out the flames, that the little fellow’s life was saved. An ambulance carried the girl to the Grady hospital. The little brother was unhurt, but Ezma was terribly burned on nearly every part of her body save the face. The body was removed to P. J. Bloom field’s chapel, and will later be taken to Taylorsville, Ga., for funeral and in terment. . Besides her brother, she is survived by her parents. W COITUS ASI.HiS A tad FREE President-Elect, It Is Said, Will Sail for the Islands Immedi ately After the Close of the Extra Session BY RALPH SMITH. .WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—That Presi dent-elect Wilson may visit the Philip pines immediately after the adjournment of the extra session of congress is a re port from Trenton that has caused much lively interest in Washington. Governor Wilson, it is said, has been much confused by the conflicting stories about the qualifications of the Filipinos for self-government and he has deter mined, to acquaint himself with the facts first hand before he takes a final step with reference to Filipino independence. Credence is placed in the Trenton re port by those who know Governor Wil son. They believe that he is a man bent on satisfying himself as to the minutest details of every question that he must consider as president, and they agree that the best and, in fact, the only way to get accurate information about the Philippines and the Filipinos is to visit the islands and study conditions a? they really are. The question of in dependence for the Philippines is one of the most important and aggravating problems confronting Governor Wilson, and h$ is alive to this fact. The purpose of Mr. Wilson in thts di rection is regarded with favor in Wash ington. especially by congressmen and senators from the Pacific coast, who lave given much thought to the Philip pines. They think it a capital plan for the president-to-be, to visit the islands at the first opportunity after his inau guration, and they believe! moreover, that a congressional commission should be created to accompany him, with a view to reporting to congress.
