THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, MAY 20, 1913. 3 PUBLIC TARIFF HEARINGS [[ He and His Colleagues Reiter ated Today That Hearings Are Open to Press (By Associated Press. - ' TVASHINTOX, May 19.—Announce ment today by Chairman Simmons of the finance committee that sub-commit tees considering the Underwood tariff bill had determined to grant more time to protesting manufacturers than at first was intended, aroused considerable interest at the capitol. Although the effort of senate Repub licans to force public hearings was defeats, minority leaders see in the changed tactics of the Democrats a concession which they claim resulted in the denunciation of secret considera tion of the bill. Another interesting development was the determination of Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia, a mem ber of the sub-committee consjdering the cotton and chemical schedules, to have the private hearings conducted by him reported by a senate stenographer This is an innovation which the Repub licans assert was brought about through the insistence of Senators LaFollette and Bristow, who urged that the pri vate hearings be published for the ben efit of senators not on the finance com mittee. It also has been agreed that the finance committee will send to manufac turers the list of questions on costs and production proposed by Senator LaFol lette. Still another liberalizing feature re sulting from the debate from the Pen- rose-LaFollette public hearing amend ment. was the reiteration 'by Senator Hoke Smith and some of his colleagues that members of'the press could attend the private hearings. Today Senator Smith conferred with other members of the committee and found they were agreeable to admitting newspaper rep resentatives. None of the tariff bill sub-committees held hearings today except Senator Williams* committee which gave a brief hearing to Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Curtis and Assistant Attorney General Denison on the administration features of the bill. “We will try to have the bill ready for the senate by June,” said Senator Simmons today, “but it probably will be a little later than that owing to the fact that the sub-committees have agreed to give a little more time to the manufacturers who are protesting against the rates in the Underwood bill. They have decided to do this owing to the insistence and persistence of some of the interests affected by the bill. We already have lost a whole week because of the prolonged debate on the reference motions but the work will be pushed as rapidly as possible.” TH GEORGIA OPPOSES A NEW FEDERAL COURT Grand Juries of Southern Dis trict Memorialize Senators and Congressmen ’ BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, May 19.—Senators and congressmen have been memorial ized by the feedral grand juries of the southern district of Georgia not to cre ate an additional federal circuit in the state. The memorial was submitted by Cook Clayton, of Macon, clerk of Judge Emory Speer’s court. It contains reso lutions adopted by the grand jury of the several divisions of the southern jurisdiction. The resolutions are highly laudatory in their references to Judge Emory Speer, whose popularity was unavoidably brought into a recent con sideration of this question by the Geor gia congressional delegation. Coinsidoring that much of the clamor for another circuit, if possible, but an other judge at all costs, comes from the city of Savannah and adjacent territory, the declaration of the grand jury for the eastern division carrie as a surprise to the members of congress. “The faithful, fearless and able serv ice rendered your state and country has attracted attention far and‘’wide,” reads the resolution of the eastern division grand jury, which resolution of course was directed to Judge Speer. It con tinues: “No judge has rendered nobler serv ice, no one has striven harder to do his full duty without respect to persons. We have noted with pleasure the man ner in which even-handed justice is ad ministered by this court.” The grand jury of the western divis ion was not less laudatory in its praise of Judge Speer, as instance the follow ing extract: “We remember with appreciation the reform of court and jury body following your accession to the office.” The grand jurors of the northeastern division declared that “we feel indeed fortunate in having a judge of so much ability and learning to preside over its courts, and view with alarm the rumor that an attempt will be made to divide the district.” Man Dies in Cell As Jury Votes to Hang For Murder (By Associated Press.)

Bend order toth WASHINGTON, May 19.—Secret serv ice men, after a five weeks’ hunt for the origin of a mysterious midnight telephone call to Miss Jessie Wilson, one of the president’s daughters, dis covered today that it was only a mis chievous page boy of the house of rep resentatives bent on a lark in a dull moment and that he was now safe at home in Texas, where he could not even be officially spanked. The White House telephone tinkled late one night and a voice said: “I want to talk tuh Jessie.” Then, it developed, the little chap lost his nerve and hung up, while the se cret service men began a weary chase finally tracing the call to the Repub lican cloak room of the house to find that everybody on the hoube side of the capitol knew who did it. NO CAROLINA STATUTE ON L Webb Bill Merely Confers Au thority for Such Law, Says Court BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, May 19.—The parcel post records of the postoffice for the month of April show that Atlanta con tinues to hold its own as a mail order center and general distributing point. The city ranks twenty-fourth, outstrip ping half a dozen other cities that have a much larger population. Among thi3 number may be mentioned Indianap olis, Louisville, Denver,' Seattle, New Orleans, Los Angeles, Portland and Columbus. Ohio. The most wholesome feature of At lanta’s parcel post record, however, is the fact that the merchants of the city dispatched 184,000 parcels during the month, and that the postoffice re ceived for distributing in the city only 50,790. The balance of the trade wa“ largely in favor of Atlanta, and if this fact were considered in fixing the rel ative rating of the postoffices of the nation, Atlanta would take even a higher stand than is given her. For instance, both Rochester and Washing ton, D. C.. outrank Atlanta in the gen eral classification, but in each of the cities the number of parcels received were larger than the number of par cels sent out. The relative rating of the cities, however, is computed from the total number of the parcels handled by the Postoffice, and in this respect it is not a fair index of business condi tions. • Considered in connection with her would-be commercial rivals in the southern territory, Atlanta is in a class by herself. Birmingham is not even accorded a place among the first fifty pustoffices of the country. New Orleans ranks thirty-first, Richmond thirty-seventh. Memphis thjrty-ninth, and Nashville forty-fifth, the total parcel post business of each falling far short of the 200,000 mark. Indexed. Louisville did not touch the 200,000 mark for the month. ! uuu ! 1 TD HUERTA'S REGIME SHERIFF GETS DAVIS, WANTED FOR BURGLARY REIDS VILLE, Ga., May 19.—Sheriff (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) J.

MINERS WILLING TO TESTIFY TO SENATE (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, May 19.—More than a thousand letters, petitions and tele grams have been placed on Senator Kern’s office desk urging the passage of his resolution for inquiry into the con dition in the Paint Creek and Cabin Creek coal mine region of West Vir ginia. Today the senator received a letter from a man in New York, who wrote that he had been induced to go into the West Virginia mines under false representations, compelled to pay his own expenses and to get away, was forced to steal his way out to avoid the mine guards. The man offered to testify. Action on the Kern resolution is ex pected Monday after Senator Goff com pletes his argument against it.

May 19.—The Underwood tariff bill, as far as it relates to Frencii industry, was energetically condemn ed today at a meeting of the National Association of Industry and Com merce. Deputy Georges Gerald expressed hig objection to the bill’s administra tive clauses, which instead of reliev ing the great hindrances which he de clared exist, in trading in the United States, increased them arbitrarily. “When Mr. Underwood and his friends say they are only applicable to professional defrauders," said Gerald, “this affirmation is not sufficient for French exporters, who already know too much about the administration of the American tariff. “The world has seen how the Unit ed States by its Panama canal act has violated the Hay-Pauncefote treaty and how the state of Califor nia has violated the United States treaty with Japan,” said Deputy Ger ald. “The projected tariff. which seems intended to subsidize Ameri can ship and American shipping, vio lates twenty treaties, yet I still hope that France and the United States will be able to arrange a practical agree ment.” M. Lebon, former commerce com missioner, regretted that “the United States, although professing the de sire to live on good terms with all the world, does not give any practical proofs of this to France.” Former Foreign Minister Hanotaux and former Commerce Minister De- lombre were at the meeting.

BELLE VALLEY, O., May 19.—Two r.ien are dead, three are probably fatally wounded and 16 others entombed as the result of two explosions tonig-ht in the Imperial mine of the O&ara Coal com pany. The 16 men caug-ht by the first explosion are imprisoned a mile and a half from the entrance of the mine. At midnight hundreds of persons, at tracted to the scene of the explosion, were in absolute ignorance of the fate of the entombed miners. A rescue party entered the mine, but its members were driven back by the deadly gas. .Miners doubt whether the men in the mine will be found alive. Additional relief was summoned from Cambridge, 20 lies north of Belle Vel- ley. Superintendent S. T. Mathews, of the O’Gara company, and Deputy State Mine Inspector ^Ellwood, a number of physicians and a score of volunteer re lief workers left Cambridge on a spe cial train soon after the explosion. Friends and relatives of the entombed miners gather about the mine and it was with difficult that they were restrained from entering the tunnel. Twenty miners left the workings just a few min utes before the first explosion occurred. MYSTERY OF DEATH OF PRINCE RUDOLPH SOLVED? (Special Cable to The Journal.) VIENNA, May 19.—All the world knows that on January 30, 1889, the Crown Prince Rudolph of Austria, the heir to the Austrian crown and the only son of the aged emperor, and the Bar oness Mary Vetsera were found dead at the hunting box of Meyerling, near Vienna. But to this day it has never been au thoritatively stated how the prince and the oaroness met their end. The secret is at last to be told, and it will be revealed by one who played an impor tant part in the drama, and whose testi mony Is unimpeachable. It is the Countess Marie Larisch, a niece of the late Empress Elizabeth of Austria, who has decided to speak, after a silence of twenty-four years, and her narrative is as sad and terrible a story as nas ever been told. The Countess Larisch is probably the only person living who is able to tell the whole story. She was the confidante of the poor girl who died with the prince, and her story of the greatest of European court mysteries will be eag erly awaited. An official account of the death that was given out at the time attributed the princes’ death to apoplexy. It was known for certain that a mer ry party, which included Count Hoyos and Prince Philip of Coburg, brother of King Ferdinand of Bulgaria, had been dining at the hunting box with the crown prince the night before. It was Count Hoyos who first sent the news ol the death to the emperor. But rumors added that there had been a scene of wild disorder in the hunting box, widely varying results as follows: That the crown prince had been shot by a gamekeeper. That he had been hit on the head with a chair by the duke of Braganza.* That the Baroness Mary Vetsera (whose dead body had also been found in the hunting box) had wounded him because he wanted to break off his re lations with her. As the doctors refused to certifly apoplexy as the cause of the crown prince’s death, it was announced of ficially that the prince had committed suicide. The last letter written by the baron ess and found in the hunting box had been addressed to the Countes Marie Larisch, a niece of the late empress of Austria, and only daughter of Duke Lud wig, of Bavaria. Rumor had it that this lady had brought about the meet ing between the crown prince (her cous in) and the baroness (her friend). The truth appears to be that she was their unintentional tool. City Clerk Kills Self By Dizzy Leap From Oakland City Hall OAKLAND, Cal., May 19.—Harold E. Magill, city clerk committed suicide today by leaping 200 feet from the fourteenth story of the new city hall to the roof of ft. lower part of the same building. Magill obtained a permit to go to the roof and while the permit was be ing prepared asked the clerk if he thought a man could drop 200 feet and be conscious on striking. He told one of his associates yesterday that he had not slept for three weeks and had walked miles in an attempt to tire him self out that he might gain some rest. Executive Committee of Na tional Committee Getting Ready for 1914-16 Fights CBy Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, May 19.—Plans for drawing the political battle lines of 1914 and 1916 were talked over today at conferences of the executive com mittee of the Democratic national com mittee. The plan included a conference over what the national..committee should do to make the party successful in the state and congressional elections two years hence, with a look ahead to the next national election; a meeting with officers of the Democratic congressional committee regarding a greater represen tation of senators on that body and a conference with President Wilson. “The committee, which met at its per manent offices, is composed of Commit teemen Palmer, of Pennsylvania; Clark Howell, of Georgia; Cato Sells, of Texas; Homer Cummings, of Connecti cut, and Fred. Lynch, of Minnesota. “Concentration, anticipation, amalga mation, confederation, harmonization,- of methods, is the way one member of the executive committee epitomized the plans of ther. conference. Today marked the opening of the permanent offices of the jjemocratic national committee, which the party organization expects to maintain every day during the next four years at least. ^he “executive” committee, so-called, but really a finance committee, is under instructions to devise methods for raising money under a resolution adopted at a meeting of the national committee on March 5, which indorsed the effort of Chairman McCombs to establish a permanent headquarters and press a vigorous publicity cam paign. LAWYER TRIED BRIBERY 10 FREE HURRY 1 John N, Anhut Is Convicted of Attempting to Free Thaw by Illegal Means NEW YORK, May 17.—John M. An hut was convicted of attempted bribery tonight by the jury before which he has been ontrial in connection with an at tempt to free Harry K. Thaw from Mat- teawan by alleged illegal means. The young lawyer will be sentenced Mon day. In summing up, assistant District Attorney DeFord rehearsed Thaw’s un successful attempts to get his free dom and declared in the Anhut case Thaw, in desperation, sought Illegal means to gain an end he could not ac complish legally. Arthur Palmer, in summing up for Anhut, asked the jury to disregard Thaw’s testimony, in view of his men tal condition. He said Anhut was a victim of circumstances brought about by Th^w and Dr. Russell, and had acted honestly as Thaw’s counsel. In charging the jury, however, the court said Thaw’s testimony should be given careful 1 consideration. Thaw said on the stand that he sent Anhut $25,000 when the defendant told him he had talked with Dr. Russell, and that the physician had promised to see that Thaw was released. Dr. Russelll said that Anhut tried to bribe him with a $20,000 offer. JAPS WANT EQUALITY WITH U. S.

The meeting closed with dignity ana seriousness and, with the exception of the idea that granting naturalization rights, the Japanese in America would find a practical solution.
