The search is now con centrated about Newington,. a small station on the Brinson railroad, be tween Savannah and Sylvanla. Newington Is near the Savannah riv er .and it Is stated that Austin has crossed this stream In an effort to get away from those who are trying to run him down. Van ePeples, a well known planter in the vicinity of Estill, S. C., came to Savannah to get information for the other members of the posse, who are ^waiting at Meinhard, a few miles from Savannah. Plans are being made to carry the posse to Newington as quick ly as possible. Edward Ziegler, a magis trate at Estill, is in charge of the posse at Meinhard. There are between 30 and 50 men in the crowd. The people at Estill took up a subscription to pay the expenses of the posse on the train.

Lawrence Yerger, of Missis sippi, Is Said to Have Con fessed To Defaulting (By Associated Press.) JACKSON. Mias., May 6.—Lawrence Yerger, clerk of the board of prison trustees, was arrested tonight charged with being a defaulter in the sum of 814,627. Yerger is said to have ac knowledged to Governo Brewer that he was short in his - accounts. An affidavit was filed against Yerger 1 late today by Attorney General Ross A. Collins .alleging Yerger had, by making erasures and otherwise defacing his books, covered up receipts that had been turned into the prison office and appro priated the money to his own use. This money was derived from the sale of products of the state farms. Yerger. it is charged, so mutilated the records ot these transactions that it was impos sible to trace the amounts paid, while in some instances no record of them appeared upon the books kept by him. The affidavit filed against Yerger by Attorney General Collins charges that during the last four years money was paid to him on account of articles purchased through him of the state and are unaccounted Tor as follows: By the Jackson Oil and Refining company $1,447.17; Natchez Cotton Oil comapny, $6,136; Brookhaven Cotton Oil and Fertilizer company, $7,044. Governor Brewer tonight said the amount of the alleged a defalcation will probably develop to be greater than the sun now given. The governor said it will be impos sible to determine the shortage until a thorough examination of the books and accounts has been made. Governor Brewer stated tonight that Yerger had acknowledged to him that he was short in his accounts, but dicl r.ot say wha he had done with the money. Te governor said that he had had detectives examining the books of thq. prison office for another purpose and the shortage of the clerk, who had # not been suspected, was discovered. Yerger, when placed under arrest, at once waived examination and in a short time was released o $25,000 bohd, signed by some of the leading citi zens of Jackson. Yerger is 29 years old, married and is from one of the most prominent fam ilies of the state. Harry Floyd’s Dilemma Over Negro Question Settled the Question of Votes for Wo men With Lower Branch of Florida Legislature (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) TALLAHASSEE, Fla., May 5.—No event of less community Interest than high school commencement or memo rial day oration could have drawn the attendance that the suffragette question in the house did Friday morning, when the resolution proposing the ballot for women as offered by Mr. Bussey was taken up as the special order. If members of the house had not al ready made up their minds on the question, they lost no time in forming negative opinions after Representative Harry Floyd, of Franklin, read a letter which he had received from a negro woman, thanking him for his interest in '“Votes fer Wtimmuns" and assuring him of the appreciation of the 3,000 and some odd negro women of Jackson ville. Although Mr. Floyd voted to submit the question to the people, he declared that he did not know on which side to stand. The letter from a prospective black suffragette, however, settled the question for once and all with many of Mr. Floyd's colleagues and to this is attributed the real cause of the amendment’s defeat. Long before the hour for the special order the galleries began to fill with handsomely gowned women and pinkly perfect girls, and as the time approach ed—the hour of fate, according to John J. Ingalls,—the area back of the rail, which is termed the gallery by cour tesy only, was filled and the house at tendants began placing chairs in the aisles and vacant spaces about the speaker’s stand until the supply of chairs was exhausted, and then the aisles became the standee, and when the debate began every door was choke-full, and there appeared tier up on tier 6f faces until the doorfacings at the top were reached, and every opening was packed with a plumosa- framed series and succession of fem inine beauty. All around the walls of the chamber there were people, and it is doubtful if that historic room ever witnessed a more tense moment than the moment when Harry Gold stein moved that the special order be followed and the house go into the consideration of the resolution. Excitement paling his bald head, even, dry of throat and nervous of manner, the Honorable H. Clay Stan ford addressed the 'chair. “I had hoped,” he opened, "that the time would never come in the state of Florida when this question would come before this body. On behalf of the people I represent and in my own be half, I wish to express my unalterable opposition to the submission, even, ot this proposition to the people.” Mr. Stanford delivered an impassion ed speech during which he paced the aisle from his seat against the wall to the speaker's stand. He said, he wanted the women of the south to remain in that realm of reverence which had been made for her by the men of the south, he desired that the woman of fifty years ago be the standard by which the women of the day should be measured and strive to achieve. Mr. Henry objected to the line of ar gument which Mr. Stanford was follow ing, contending that he was not speak ing to the question. Henry said that the merits of woman’s suffrage should not be gone into, for the reason that it was 6n the referendum of the mat ter to the people that was before the house and not the merits of the ques tion, because they were involved and he did not yield the privilege of doing so to any man- on the floor. He charged that the movement to secure the vote for women came- from the north, and that the women of the south didn’t want It. The injection of this idea, he said, was poisonous, and the members should see to it that the matter was summarily disposed of.

ROME, Ga., May 5.—Refusing to tol erate the presence in their communtiy of a wildcat still and the almost open sale of liquor, a band of women residing at West Armuchee, in Walker county, searched the woods near Suttle’s mill until the still was found. In the party were Mrs. S. Hunt, Mrs. Brock and daughter and Mrs. Anderson and daugh ter. The moonshiners were busy at work when the .women approached, and immediately took flight, but not before they were recognized by the women. Securing a pick, the amateur raiding party made a desperate effort to destroy the still. United States revenue offi cers were notified and made a raid in the hope of capturing the moonshiners and their outfit. Thie raid had been tipped off, however, and when the officers reached the scene the still had been hurriedly removed and no one was about. Eight hundred gallons of beer were destroyed. It is said that the operators of the still are well known, and that arrests will follow unless they have fled the country. (By Associated Press.) SAN FRANCISCO, May 5.—Secretary of t State Bryan turned from Tokio to Rfo do Janeiro last night. At the close of a banquet given in his honor by the directors of the Panama-Pacific ex position, he suddenly launched into a glorification of the golden rule as ap plied to the republics of South Ameri ca. “I glory,” he said, “that we now have an administration which bring home to the republics of South America our sense of national honor and which will, herald t° them our abandonment of dollar diplomacy. “If you people will give to South America a demonstration of American capital and enterprise, the United States will give dollars in service for your dollars in goods. There is no limit to the possible expansion of the golden rule between South and North America. “The canal zone should be the center of American activties for two conti nents. I dream of an American uni versity there which should promulgate the expansion of peace and Justice.” (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, May 5.—President Wilson ascended the Washington mon ument today and held an informal re ception in the tower at its summit. The president had strolled away from the White House, accompanied only by Joseph W. Murphy, one of the secret service men, and had stopped for a few minutes to watch “a kid’s ball game,” when he suddenly took a notion to join the crowd of tourists who meet at the monument throughout the day. At first the president was not recog nized, but when one man spied him and insisted on shaking hands, the en tire party grouped about the president and greeted him. When he descended, the elevator was crowded, so the president gave up his seat to a woman passenger and stood during the trip down, which takes sev eral minutes.

Again he was asked not to eat there. BONDS ARE ASSESSED FOR ATHENS BANKERS (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) ATHENS, Ga., May 5.—Sheriff W. E. Jackson has fixed the bonds of the bank officials, J.

Nineteen loaued freight ears and quantities of dry goods and carpets were consumed. Mysterious fires have broken out in these sheds on three successive Fri day nights. The militant suffragettes were suspected of arson but there was no proof of this. The latest fire was evidently in cendiary, for the firemen discovered it had been started simultaneously in sev eral parts of the building. Earlier in the night a fire had been started in some cars loaded with straw in another yard apparently to divert attention from the principal scene of operations of the incendiaries. BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, May 5.—In confer ence today with the legislative commit tee of the American Bankers’ associa tion, Senator Hoke Smith outlined cur rency legislation which he has in view, and about which he is in consultation with members of the senate banking committee. The scheme was discussed in great detail, and the bankers seemed satisfied that the plan worked out by the eGorgia senator will, if enacted, ac complish desired results in the way of making the currency of the United States more elastic. Joseph A. McCord, of the Third. National bank of Atlanta, headed the bankers’ committee. As the initial step in solving the prob lem of currency reform, Senator Smith’s plan provides for the creation of not more than twenty, nor fewer than ten, territorial divisions of the United States, in each of which there shall be organ ize a national reesrve association. The national banks in each division shall subscribe ten per cent of their capital stock to the stock of the reserve asso ciation, one-half of the subscription to be paid in. The banks shall. . deposit their reserves, less the amount kept Jh their vaults, with the association. State banks and trust companies may become members of the reserve associations, provided the states, by legislation, so authorize, and provided the state banks and trust companies comply with the laws applicable to national banks in their relation to the associations. It is Senator Smith's idea to limit the dividends on the capital stock of the reserve association to 4 per cent., allow ing, however, to the several banks in accordance with the daily averages car ried by the banks with the association. NO PRIVATE BUSINESS. The plan prohibits the reserve asso ciations from doing business with pri vate individuals or corporations, ' and limits their business activities solely to their stockholders—the banks .holding membership in the association. It is provided, however, that any association may loan money tq, pr borrow money from other associations, providing that the association making the loan has on hand more money thafc is required by its immediate stockholders. The creation of a board of general su pervisors, to consist of the secretary of the treasury, the attorney general and the comptroller of the currency, is contemplated, by Senator Smith’s plan. He proposes also that a deputy comp troller of the currency shall reside with in the territorial limits of each reserve division, and shall have access at all times to the banking offices of the asso ciation. The board of supervision shall main tain at all times a supply of reserve as sociation notes which can be obtained by reserve associations for use as cur rency, upon deposit of approved personal collateral ample to secure the notes which they obtain. The board of supervision also shall have power to fix the rate of inteerst or tax which the reserve association shall pay on the notes, the rate to be uniform throughout the United States, with the privilege of making the rate vary ac cording to the length of time that the notes are kept in circulation. The ob ject of this porvision is to enable the use of the notes in the nature of an emergency currency, to be retired,when not required for use. \ REDUCED RATES FOR CONFEDERATE REUNION DALLAS.
