SAVANNAH CONVENTION State Medical Association Hears Interesting Papers and Reports (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) SAVANNAH. Ga.. April 18—The Geor gia Medical association today began a three days’ convention in Savannah with a meeting attended by doctors from all over the state. The associa tion has not met here before in several years, and there is much interest in the gathering in consequence. The ses sions will probably prove very interest ing from the viewpoint of the profes sional, but to the layman the titles of th© papers to be read do not offer much encouragement for a jolly time. The program is a very varied one, the doctors say, and it is certain to be followed with much interest by the members of the medical fraternity whd are here. The visitors were welcomed to the city this mornnig by Mayor R. J. Da- vant and soon after the public exer cises wer© over they began to discuss ■ seases and ailments with long latin names. They will be at it until Fri day fternoon with occasional interrup tions for pleasure. Last night there was a banquet at the D. P. and T. club that was at tended by a large number of physi cians who were drawn here to attend the annual meeting of the health offi cers of the cities and counties of the state. There were many bright mo ments at this banquet and no one seemed to fear indigestion as the food was prepared by the chef of the club of which Dr. t)aniel, of Savar. .h, is president. Dr. W. W. Pilcher, the president, of the state, society, presided at the meet ing of that organization this morning, and did it with a grace and charm that marked him as an ideal presiding offi- Furniture Freak Draws Fire From Six Hundred Women (By Associated Press.) LITTLE ROCK, Ark., April 15.— About 600 angry Little Rock women confronted Frank Schubert, who' says he is from St. Louis, when he was ar raigned in Justice of the Peace San ders’ court yesterday, charged with swindling in connection with “furni ture clubs’’ he is alleged to have oper ated in Little -Rock. He is accused of having victimized 480 local women out of about $6,000. It is charged that Schubert organized eight clubs of sixty members each. Each was allowed to select an article of furniture represented to be worth $15.50. It is alleged Schubert’s plan was that each woman should pay 25 cents a week. At the end of each week a name should be drawn by lot. This woman was to receive the article she had selected for 25 cents, and so on until the names were drawn. Justice Sanders placed Schubert un der $5,000 bond and gave him until Saturday to make restitution. However, the prosecutor announced he would prosecute Schubert for exhibiting lot tery tickets, even if he recompensed all the women. This was the signal for a loud outburst of handclapping. The dignity of the proceedings was some what interrupted when two local poli ticians paraded through the court room bearing a banner inscribed: “Votes for women,” and the lititgants joined in a suffrage demonstration.

COURT SUFFRAGETTES FIRE IF OF Baltimore Young Men Are Charged With Robbery of Coast Line Train SAVANNAH, Ga.. April 16.—A special t the Savannah Press from Columbia says: In the United States court, eastern district of South Carolina, indictments 1 ave been returned agal-nst George H. Hill and Henry Eckstorm, the two young men of Baltimore, who were ar rested for the alleged robbery of the Atlanta Coast Line train at Hardee- ville, S. C., In December two years ago. The indictment of the two men at Florence, where the court was in ses sion when the case was presented, is the second time that an effort has been made to prosecute them in connection '"ith the daring robbery. Shortly aft- the hold-up, Hill and Eckstorm were a rested at Hardeevllle, where they had been visiting, taken to Savannah, Ga., and held in jail there. The case was dismissed when the young men were b.ought up for a preliminary hearing. Bench warrants have been issued for the men at Florence. An effort is now being made to effect their arrest. It is stated that the authorities have located them- The action of the court at Florence in returning the indictments opens an other chapter in a case which stirred that section of this state, where the robbery occurred and the adjacent ter ritory for several weeks. The robbery was one of the boldest ever perpettated in that section, and the acquittal of Hil land Eckstorm left the identity of the robbers still clouded in mystery. Shortly after the acquittal of the young men at the preliminary hearing i-. Savannah, suit was filed by them the United States court against L. Meldrim, deputy sheriff of Chatham county, who, it is alleged, caused their arrest. The sum of $20,000 was asked by the two young men for false arrest. Two suits for $10,000 each were filed. These cases are now pending in the United States court. SMITH IS SENTENCED BY CARROLL COURT (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) CARROLLTON, Ga., April 17—J.

Government Admits 275,000 Are Out While Socialists Claim Over 400,000 'By Associated Press.) BRUSSELS, Belgium, April 16.—A statement issued by the ministry of the interior this morning admits that 257,- 000 men have joined the national polit ical strike of the Belgian workers who have chosen this means of forcing the grant of “manhood suffrage” and the abolition of the system by which the welathy citizens are given plural voting power. The Socialist leaders today claimed that the total number of strikers is over 400,000. It is stated that the Belgian govern ment finds itself with a very small sup ply of coal to run the state railroads. This supply is likely to be exhausted by the end of the week, thus crippling transport facilities. Lack of fuel will also cause the stoppage of many elec tric and gas plants and prevents many thousands non-strikers from working. JEmile Vandevelde, the Socialist lead er, today completed an automobile tour of the provinces of Hainaut and Namur. He summed Up his observations as follows: All business is stagnated throughout the industrial district. Of the 208,000 workmen in the two provinces, 163,000 are striking.” From various parts of the country reports show that in some places the movement has been very successful while in others, more especially dis tricts under the control of the Catholic unions, the men are luke-warm. Violence has been exceptional since the order to quit work was given on Monday, only a few cases of destruc tion of property or interference witn non-strikers having occurred.

WASHINGTON, April 15.—Postmas ter General Burleson announced today that it was the, administration’s policy to continue all Republican postmasters now In office to the end of their terms provided no charges were sustained against their efficiency. The policy applies to all classes of postmasters. “My department will be run on busi ness lines and not by politics,” sair Mr. Burleson, in explaining the new policy. He declared that there might be some removals, but he believed that the ma jority of the postmasters were efficient and would not be disturbed. “There will have to be specific charges of inefficiency, however,” he added, “be fore any one will be removed.” Mr. Burleson said the decision had been reached after conference with Pres ident Wilson, who favors the merit sys tem. At present a plan is being wbrked out to secure sufficient efficiency, under the civil service fourth-class postmasters having been placed under that jurisdic tion on an executive order by Mr. Taft. The policy that Republican senators will adopt toward President Wilson’s 'pointments to office will be sug gested oy a committee of five, selected by +h© Republicans at a party confer ence today and submitted to the full Republican membership.

Georgia’s Senators Are Said to Be Laboring Linder an Avalanche of Applications - The following news item relative to the deluge of applications for offices, which are said to be pouring in upon Senators Bacon and Smith, was publish ed in the Savannah Morning News: A man who stands close enough to one of Georgia’s United States senators to see and confer with him practically every day in Washington, makes the statement that there are on file with Senators A. O. Bacon and Hoke Smith at least 12,000 applications for appoint ments under the federal government from true and tried Georgia Demo crats. “They have been counted,” he said, “and I know for a fact that there are around 12,000 Georgians who have ap plied for federal jobs. “What is puzzling Senators Smith and Bacon is where they are going to get even twelve jobs to satisfy .this demand. This would mean only one in a thou sand, but if they get that many, they will be doing well. “Of course, there are many minor positions under the federal government with which not a few of this 12,000 Georgia applicants would be satisfied; but it must be remembered that prac tically all of these positions are un der civil service, and are filled only from the classified service list made up from those who have stood the re quired examinations. “I don’t refer to the court and post- office. appointments within the state. There are, of course, many of these, and while some of them will be dis tributed by the two senators, the ma jority • of them will naturally be the patronage of the congressmen in whose districts they are located. “If Senators Smith and Bacon suc ceed in getting a dozen appointments of this sort outside of the civil serv ice, allotted to them, they will do better than most of the other sena tors.” According to the foregoing state ment there are going to be some thing like 11.988 dissatisfied federal of fice seekers in Georgia. Some of the politicians in Georgia are already bas ing hopes of political preferment upon this widespread dissatisfaction. SAW THROUGH BARS; ESCAPE FROM JAIL (Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
