THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, MAY 9, 1913. 8 PRIVATE INTERESTS STOP This Is the Charge Gifford Pinchot Made Before Territo ries Committee Tuesday (By Associated Pross.) WASHINGTON, May 8—Gifford Pin chot charged before the senate terri tories committee today that private in terests had held up legislation to open Alaskan coal fields under a leasing sys tem and named former Senator Guggen heim, of Colorado, as one of the men who had exerted his influence to prevent such legislation. He told the committee that he could get the names of other men in and out of congress, who were in opposition to the leasing system. Mr. Pinchot had been called to give his opinion of the bill for government aid in construction of Alaskan railroads. He was asked why, in his opinion, leg islation to develop the Alaskan coal fields had taken so many years to get through congress. “Do you mean that members of con gress have been influenced by private interests against such legislation?” asked Senator Lippitt. “I mean what you all know', that pri vate interests have great influence in congress,” returned Mr. Pinchot. “There was strong opposition from Sen ator Guggenheim to the passage of the leasing bill, here were others. I can get the names if you want them.” The former forecaster declared that in his judgment the government should operate railroads in Alaska. He be lieved in the leasing system -for mines. He added that if the government had tetained possession of the coal-fields of Pennsylvania there never would have ♦been such “political corruption.” as he said existed in that state. Mr. Pinchot advocated the retention in government possession of all “fac tors of power,” coal, oil and water power. “Power.” he said, “is the greatest tool of civilization. The curtailment of sources of power is the main reason for the high cost of living.” Mr. Pinchot was the only witness to day.

(By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, May 8.-7After a con ference with President Wilson today. Postmaster General Burleson announced that an executive order would be Is sued requiring that all fourth-class post masters now in office or candidates for prospective appointments should be sub jected to a competitive examination to determine their fitness for the office. The postmaster general issued a state ment explaining the puopose of the new executive order declaring that President Taft’s action in putting the fourth-class postmasters in the classified service was not sufficient and that the mere placing of a great horde of persons in the classi fied service was not in conformity with the spirit of the civil service as there were no tests to determine the merits of the applicants. The new order which substantially amends the Taft executive order, retains in the classified service all fourth-class postmasters In the service, but specific ally requires a competiitve examination and a selection by postofflee inspectors from among the first three eligible ap plicants. The order places the age lim it for appointees at sixty-five years. Mr. Burleson, in his discussion of the situation, indicated that the Wilson ad ministration wishes to take the fourth- class postmasters out of politics but points out that Democrats as well a» Republicans will have an opportunity under competitive examinations to show their fitness. Second and Third Class Offices Under Order Soon WASHINGTON, May 8.—Postmaster General Burleson announced today that it was the purpose of President Wilson and himself to take into the classified service probably during the next year all postmasters of the second and third classes. Fourth class offices already have been covered by executive order. COL. HUFF SAYS TRIAL WON’T PREVENT ATTACK MACON, Ga., May 8.—Judge W. I. Grubb, of Birmingham, Ala., will prob ably try Colonel W.

The hanging was to take place in Emanuel county and was post poned by order of the governor until Friday, September 5.

Her case was called at Swains- boro last week, and postponed until Sep tember. Flanders died under suspicious cir cumstances, and Dr. McNaughton, who lived with him at the time, was ac cused of administering some kind of poison.

I don’t know now why 1 did it, and I regretted it soon afterward. But it ~7as too late. We were married on February 15.” Mrs. Bell, when in Waco, lived with her adopted mother, Mrs. Mary Dowd.

JUDGE Lawyers in Washington Con fer With Georgia Delega- • tion Over New District BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, May 8.—At a confer ence today between the members of the Georgia congressional delegation and a committee of Savannah lawyers, the cre ation of an additional federal judge in Georgia was considered. As a result of the discussion, the dele gation passed a resolution requesting the Savannah lawyers to submit In writ ing a bill and facts to sustain their con tention that an additional Judge is needed. Senator Bacon and Congressman Howard were the only members of the delegation absent from the conference. They were unavoidably detained. Sena tor Smith stated to the meeting that after a conference with Senator Bacon they had agreed to support whatever federal court legislation the house mem bers may agree upon. The conference was enlivened by the unavoidable discussion of Judge Emory Speer’s popularity and unpopularity in the southern district. The Savannah committee came to Washington in the hope of interesting the Georgia congressmen and senators in the creation of an additional district. Divergent view expressed In the confer ence, however, developed the Impossi bility of an agreement along this line, whereupon, as a basis of compromise, the suggestion was made that an addi tional judge with headquarters at Sa vannah, would relieve conditions. “I gather that you gentlemen are af flicted with a disease and want local re lief, yet are willing that other setcions may continue to suffer,” said Congress man Tribble, who declared that he would not agree to such a proposition. The Savannahians disclaimed that such was the case, and asserted that the popularity or unpopularity of Judge Speer should not be considered. Congressman Roddenbery declared that before he acquiesced in any ar rangement to relieve Savannah from Judge Speer he expected to hear from the constituents In his district. He added that he did not feel like voting for the creation of additional federal jobs in Georgia unless there Is a tenta tive understanding as to how the patronage is to be controlled. Judge Adamson declared that “if the judge of the southern district is a poor judge that is all the more reason why there should be another federal judge In Georgia, and that if he Is a good judge, then another judge is needed just the same.” Discussing the creation of another district, there seemed to be a general objection to any positive agreement as to geographical lines at this time. Senator Smith declared that he felt sure that the people of the northern district, who are in love with Judge Newman, would object seriously to be ing placed In another jurisdiction. The lawyers in the Savannah commit tee declared that the admiralty practice in the federal court had dwindled to nothing, because the federal judge is rarely accessible to give it his atten tion. The Savannahians were: Judge Sam Adams, General Peter W. Meldrim, W. W. Osborne, Ferris Cann, Anton Wright and Mayhew Cunning ham.
