8 THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, JUNE 10, 1913. Curran Aldermanic Committee Makes a Scathing Arraign ment of New York’s Detec- tive Bureau- WEATHER BUREAU OFFICIAL PUTS GREAT CREDENCE IN “SAYIN’S” OF PROPHET OF VILLAGE STORE (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, June 9.—Scattering ar raignment of the detective bureau of the New York police department, and a charge that a partnership exists be tween some detectives and criminals, are contained in the third section ot the Curran committee report on police conditions, submitted to the board oi aldermen today. A brisa fight over the report’s adoption was expected. “Betijamln Levy,” says the report, “who had never been convicted of a crime, testified that at the request 01 officials in the detective bureau he had ot'fen- induced criminals to commit bur glary in order that they might be ar rested. He was strongly corroborated by reputable citizens, including an offi cial of an insurance company, a mer chant and others. ‘‘Levy testified that in one case Dep uty Commissioner Dougherty, in charge of the detective bureau, gave him $25' with which to purchase ourglar tools, and after he succeeded in ‘he burglary pr.id him $75 for his services. “City vouchers for these amounts in Levy's favor were found ■ the comp troller’s office. “Deputy- Com-iissioner Dougherty and others involved were subpoenaed by us and asked to waive immunity before giving their testimony. This tlrey refused, with oiie exception, and $- ey were not interrogated. Notwith standing the shocking nature of this testimony and the corroboration re ceived, the commissioner has taken no action whatever in the premises. It is not surprising that under such lax dis cipline some detectives turn thieves.” In conclusion the report says the bureau is hopelessly inefficient and should be reorganized along drastic lines. Commissioner Dougherty issued a statement this afternoon branding the committee reports as “a sample of malice and lies worthy of the trade tal ent of a professional crook.” It was too absurd to discuss in detail, he said.'

ARGENTINE PACKERS THREATEN-TO CLOSE (By Arf-ooiatetl PreSR.) BUENOS AYRES, Argentine, June 9. —Six of the leading Anglo-Argentine chilled beef companies presented to the Argentine government today a note de claring that if the present onerous sit uation continued they would close their plants because other companies estab lished in the country were preparing to establish an absolute monopoly of the meat trade by selling in the English markets Argentine meats at less than .cost. The complaining companies de clare that in. presenting the note they' were incited by a desire to warn the Argentine government of the conse quences. MITCHELL BARRED AS LABOR COMMISSIONER (3v Associated Press.) ALBANY, N- Y.. June 9.—Supreme Court Justice Chester today upheld the contention of Attorney General Carmody that Governor Sulzer was without legal authority in appointing John Mitchell, former president of the United Mine Workers’ of America, as state labor commissioner. The question now goes to the higher courts. The effect of Justice Chester's decis ion is also to uphold the conclusion of attorney general that the governor may not appoint several other state officers without the consent of the legislature.

WASHINGTON, June 9.—Scientists in the weather bureau have oeen study ing the weather proverbs, and have come to the conclusion that many of them have a degree of reliability that is quite startling. Unlike tfce scientific forecasts, however, these proverbs are based • on local observations and apply to local conditions. The weather bureau has a horizon that is as broad, as a continent, or even the world, while the village forecaster, depending on the sky, the sun, the moon, the stars or the winds, has an outlook no wider than the physical horizon which shuts him in. Generations and even centuries of experience have crys tallized the observations of these vil lage-to-village forecasters into the form of the proverbs which are familiar to the public at large, and given to a num ber of them a degree of reliability that is not to be questioned. In many places, chiefly the rural communities, it is impossible to get, in time for use, either the official forecast of the weather bureau, or the Weather map accompanying it, and under these conditions it is poitned out that certain weather signs are of special value. W. J. Humphreys, Ph. D., professor of meteorogical physics in the weather bureau, who has just contributed a highly Interesting chapter to tJTe litera ture of weather proverbs, notes the crude but shrewd wisdom that is back of many of them. He notes that deep sea fishermen will weigh anchor and flee from a gathering storm when to the casual onlooker there is no sign of such storm, and that the woodsman will note significant changes and understand them when the average man would be con scious of no change. “The prescience of these men,” says Dr. Humphreys, "is phenomenal, “and then he proceeds to a consideration of some of the proverbs which go to make up the wisdom on which such people rely for guidance in weather matters. SOME OF THE PROVERBS. Some of these proverbs attempt to forecast conditions for an entire grow ing season, and when they deal with results rather than with types of weather. Dr. Humphreys says they are frequently rationally founded. Take, for instance, this proverb: \ ' Frost year, Fruit year. Or to state it in another form: A Physician Cures His Wife Of Consumption With A Simple Home Treatment. Book Fully Describing The Treat ment Sent Absolutely Free To Any Lung Sufferer. DR. W. H. KNIGHT of East Saugus. Mass., writes: ‘‘My wife was down with Consumption, when I ordered the Lloyd treatment. She was very weak from night sweats, cough, and in a feverish condition. I noticed a change tor the better after ten day’s treat ment, and from that time on up to three months, when the cure was completed.

Fruit will grow; Or put in still another form: A year of snow, a year of plenty. “That these ajid similar statements are commonly true,” says Dr. Hum phreys, “is evident from the fact that a more or less continuous covering of snow, incident to a cold winter, not only delays the blossoming of fruit trees till after the probable season of killing frosts, but also prevents that alternate thawing and freezing so ruin ous to wheat and other winter grains. In short, as anefther proverb puts it, ‘a late spring never deceives.’ “A different class of proverbs, but meaning practically the same thing, and justified by substantially the same fact—-that an unseasonably early growth of vegetation is likely to be in jured by later freezing—is illustrated by the following: “ ‘January warm, the Lord have mercy.' PROVERBS OF SUN, MOON AND ^ STARS. Another series of proverbs forecast weather conditions from the appearance of the sun, moon and stars and the sky, and, like the proverbs forecasting the seasons, some of them are built upon the sure foundation of accurate observation and correct reasoning. It is with these latter that Dr. Hum phreys deals. A familiar proverb of this class is this: A red sun has water in his eye. Quantities of dust in a damp at mosphere produce a “red sun,” or smoke, if of sufficient quantities, will do it. When the atmosphere is heavily charged with dust particles that are moisture-laden, we see the sun as a fiery ball. This dust has much, to do with rainfall, for it has been scientif ically demonstrated that cloud par ticles, and therefore rain, will not form, ordinarily, in a dust-free atmosphere, but will readily form when the at mosphere is damp. A red sun there fore commonly indicates the presence of both the essential rain elements— .dust and moisture. ■Bhere are many proverbs, some good and usefl and others misleading, con cerning the color of the sky at sunset and sunrise. From Shakespeare are the following lines: “A red morn that ever yet betokened Wreck to the seamen, tempest to the field, Sorrow to the shepherds, woe to the birds, Gusts and foul flaws to herdsmen and to herds.” But in many ways the most interest ing of all these proverbs that have to do with red sunrise and sunset, in the judgment of Dr. Humphreys, is the one which, according to the gospel of Mat thew, Christ used in answer to the Phar isees and Saducees when they asked Him to show them a sign from heaven. “He answered and said unto them. When it is evening, ye say, It will c fair weather: for the sky is red. “And in the morning. It will be foul weather today: for the sky is red and lowering.” “It will *be noticed,” comments Dr. Humphreys, “that an evening red sky :s here declared to indicate exactly the opposite type of weather from that in- licated by a morning red. This, how ever, Is only an apparent contradiction, for the origin of the red is not the same in the two cases.” If the evening sky low in the west, is yellowish or greenish, or some other short wave-length color, then look out for clear weather, for these colors, says I)r. Humphreys, indicate even less con densation and therefore a dryer air than does red. Hence, the following lines from Shakespeare express a general truth: "The weary sun hath made a golden set, And by the bright track of his fiery car Gives token of a goodly tomorrow.” But if the evening sky is gray, then we may know that many water drops are present, and that the dust particles have become loaded with moisture, MOON HAS SMALL EFFECT. There are numerous proverbs based on the assumption that the moon ap preciably controls the weather, but sci ence has proved them to be without re liability. Beyond a very small tidal effect on the atmosphere, as indicated by the barometer, the moon has no ef fect whatever on the weather, say the scientists. The following proverb bears out the scientific theory: The moon and the weather May change together; But change of the moon Does not change th6 weather. If we’d no moon at all, And that may seem strange, We still should have weather That’s subject to change. However, as Dr. Humphreys observes, the appearance of the moon depends upon the conditions of the atmosphere, and, therefore, provertjs based upon phenomena of this nature are more or less sound and have much value. Thus: Clear moon, Frost soon. Moonlight nights have ..ie heaviest frosts. ■i/roverbs ^f this class are true, be cause on clearest nights the cooling of the earth’s surface by radiation ii greatest, and hence most likely to cause, through the low temperature reached, heavy dew or frost. The interesting moon proverb— Sharp horns do threaten windy weather, is shown to have a scientific founda tion. When the air is clear, bad seeing is due to. atmospheric inequalities which the free mixing caused by winds will eliminate. Thus when the moon’s horns appear sharp, that is, when the seeing is good, we know that these ine qualities do not exist, and the natural Inference is that they have been smoothed out by strong, overrunning winds, which later may reach the sur face of the earth. The Star proverb— When the stars begin to huddle, The earth will soon become a puddle, also has a scientific basis. In a mist the smaller stars are not visible, and the brighter ones shine dimly with a blur, each looking like a confused clus ter of stars. This gave rise, prior to the ascertainments of science, that stars can huddle together at one time—before a rain—and be scattered asunder at an other. There are many proverbs based on the direction and changes of the wind, but their value mainly is local, except when taken in connection with the readings of the barometer. The heighth, extent and shapes of the clouds depend upon the humidity and upon the temperature and motion of the atmosphere, and consequently they often furnish reliable warnings of the coming weather. One proverb correctly says: The higher the clouds, the finer the weather. High clouds are formed only at the expense of much cooling, a*nd they con tain little moisture. This proverb, how ever, it is pointed out, must be restricted to stratus and other of the more com mon clouds. It does not apply to those thin wispy or cirrus clouds, the highest of all, that float from 5 to 8 miles above sea level, for, as is well known: Mackeral scales and mares’ tails Make lofty ships carry low sails. Part of the air that forms the strong upward currents near the center of a storm rises to great heights, where, in middle latitudes, it gets into the swift ly eastward-moving layers that carry it and its ice particles far ahead of the rains. There are other ways by which such clouds can be formed, but that just explained is one of the most com mon, and as in this case they are only the overrunning portion of a storm that is coming on in the same general direc tion, the proverb just quoted evidently is well founded. When the air is rather damp and the day is warm, great cumulus or thunder- head clouds are apt to form, as a re sult of strong convention, and produce frequent local showers. Hence the fol lowing proverb: When clouds appear like rocks and towers, The earth’s refreshed "by frequent showers. When the ’air is full, of moisture its temperature tends rapidly to become equalized, and the atmosphere is freed from the innumerable temperature ir regularities that prevail during dry weather, and that strongly reflect and dissipate sound. But when the air is homogeneous, which is far more likely to be when damp, it will convey sound much better than when filled with in equalities, and hence there is good rea son to accept the proverb— Sound traveling far and wide A stonrmy day will betide. Not only the hearing, but the seeing also, is improved by the homogeneity of the atmosphere; and this, too, has appropriate proverbs, as for instance— The farther the sight the nearer the rain. Decrease in atmospheric pressure and increase of humidity have led to many well founded proverbs. It is thus stated that the approach of a storm is marked by the rising of water in wells, by the more abundant flow of certain springs, by the bubbling of marshes, by bad odors of ditches, etc., all of which are due to that decrease of at mospheric pressure which precedes storms. Increase of humidity, favorable to precipitation, is noted by the gathering of moisture of sold objects, the collec tion of perspiration on our own bodies owing to diminished evaporation, and dampness of many hygroscopic sub stances. This last effect is illustrated by the packing of salt, the tightening of cordage and of the strings of musical instruments, the dull and damp appear ance of stone walls and columns, the settling of smoke -and similar phe nomena. all of which have been made, the subject of proverbs indicating a gathering storm. Dr. Humphreys winds? up his inter esting discussion of weather proverbs by saying that he hopes enough of tne more reliable ones have been quoted to Indicate their importance in those eases where a weather service cannot take the place of weather signs, meaning the rural communities more or less remote from railroad p.nd telegraph stations. DEMOCRATS LIKELY TO CREATE ANOTHER OFFICEJ CABINET Secretary of Public Works Be the Next New Cabi net Official to Sit on Board at White House CASTOR IA for Infants and Children. The Kind Yet! Have Always fought Bears the Signature of. BY BAZiPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, D. C., June 9.—The next cabinet position to be created by congress will be the secretary of pub lic works. So say a number of promi nent public men, who have been watch ing with a good deal of interest the trend of public sentiment in the United States in favor of co-ordinating all the federal public works, as is the rule in France, Germany, Italy and other countries in Europe, and placing them in charge of a responsible executive de partment. The recent appointment of a com mittee on good roads by the house of representatives, it Is predicted. will eventually lead to this proposed cab inet position. It would not be surpris ing if the matter should take definite form next winter, in the regular ses sion, and at the latest it will prob ably not go beyond the long session which will mark the middle of the Wil son administration. The campaign of education that will follow the introduction of a bill will probably run along for several years; this has been the rule in the past; and then the new department will be cre ated. THE DEPARTMENT’S JURISDIC TION. Following is a partial list of the items that would naturally come under tne Jurisdiction of such a department, and whose growing importance will be a powerful aid in the enactment of the legislation. The building of the Alaskan railways by the government. The plan now is to have the government do the work of construction and issue the necessary bonds. This work will require a num ber of years for performance, and at its completion the federal government must have a bureau in order to main tain a proper check upon the operations of the lines. The cost of the Alaskan railways will be approximately $40,- 000,000. Army engineers will do the work. 1 The maintenance of the Panama canal. It has been estimated that it will re quire $5,000,000 a year to operate the canal at a high standard of efficiency. This charge will be perpetual. Under the present arrangement, the war and navy departments divide the responsibility of the canal, and conflict of authority is inevitable. Public buildings. The average an nual appropriation for new public build ings is $15,000,000, and the work is done under the supervision of the secretary of the treasury, who is charged also with the responsibility of the upkeep of the buildings. Army and navy departments construct buildings to the value of about $5,000,- 000 a year, for various purposes con nected -with their work. This construc tion is now in chaf&e of departmental bureaus. Indian reservations. Each year hun dreds of thousands of dollars are ex pended in the construction of new build ings of various kinds on Indian reserva tions in the west. The work is done now under the direction of the commis sioner of Indian affairs. Good roads. “And last, but by no means least,” as the speiler at the cir cus would say, there is the question of good* roads. The creation of a good roads committee by the house indicates that it will be not a great while before con gress will decide upon a policy of road construction throughout the country, the states assisting, with the federal gov ernment in general charge of mainten ance, for the sake of uniformity. It is believed that the annual expenditure will not be very.large at first, but members of congress believe that in time the appropriations will amount to $100,000,- 000 a year. WILL CO-ORDINATE IMPROVE MENTS The purpose of the department of public -works will be to co-ordinate all of this construction work under one re sponsible head. It Is sure to come, say prominent men in both houses, and un der favorable conditions it may come before the end of Wilson’s first admin istration. At the latest, they say, it will come under that of his second adminis tration. It may be added by way of pa r enthesis that the impression is gen eral in Washington that Wilson will suc ceed himself. IS BALDNESS DOOMED?

White and eighteen other officials of the United Mine Work ers of America, were indicted in the federal court here today on a charge of violating the Sherman anti-trust law. It is alleged the defendants conspired with the coal operators of western Penn sylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois to raise wages in the West Virginia coal fields, so as to prevent their competi tion with other states. ESTABLISHES PRECEDENT. It is said here that this case is the first one in which officers of labor organ izations have been indicted on charges of having violated the Sherman anti-trust law. The indictments charge that the ninety men engaged in a combination and con spiracy in restraint of trade and com merce.” The offense is said to have start ed September 1, 1912, and continued since. It is charged that the indicted men have been agents and members of “an unincorporated voluntary organization of Individual as a labor union known as the United Mine Workers of America, having many thousands of members who unlawfully combined and conspired to gether with the object and intent of un ionizing and making membersof said or ganization the laborers employed in and around the coal mines of the state of West Virginia in order that and with the intent that said organization, by regulat ing the wage to be paid to said labor ers for their work, could and would fix and control the price at which the coal mined in the state of West Virginia could compete with coal mined in the western part of Pennsylvania and in the states of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, in the mar kets of the states of the United States outside of West Virginia.” SENATORS MAKE ISSUE UPON INDIAN AFFAIRS WASHINGTON, June 9.—Demands of Senator Lane, of Washington, that the Indian affairs committee of the senate get complete statements as to how all Indian funds are administered, betore acting on the $10,000,000 Indian appro priation bill now pending, opened up an Indian fight that probably will be car ried onto the floor of the senate. Senator Lane proposes to ask the com mittee Monday to authorize only tem porary appropriations for the Indians and to institute at once an investigation of the Indian bureau. Other committee members declared it was impossible to get the detailed state ment, and that the bill would, be recom mended for passage early next week. The Indian bill contains a provision for a complete investigation of the Indian bureau, the Indian service and the ad ministration of all funds. ■ STILE! TD GET POSTOFFIGE IN DUBLIN Charge of "Vicious” Opposi tion to Mr, Wilson Not Sus tained Upon Inquiry BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, June 9.—While there has been no official announcement by the postoffice department, it is believed to night that Vivian Stanley will be nom inated for postmaster at Dublin on the recommendation of Congressman Dudley M. Hughes. It is understood 'that the charges of “vicious and offensive” oppo sition by Stanley to the nomination of President Wilson at Baltimcre have not been established, and that the depart ment is inclined to respect the wishes of Mr. Hughes. When Stanley’s name was first pre sented for the Dublin postofflee, it was charged that he had been equally as active and bitter in his fight on the president as was Albert S. Hardy, at Gainesville, whose activity cost him that office. The department declined to nominate him, pending a full investiga tion of the charges. Ed T. Brown, Walter P. Andrews and William J. Harris, state chairman, who were the Wilson leaders in Georgia, are understood to have recommended the nomination of Stanley, after making a full investigation. It is stated that they have examined the files of his pa per, the Dublin Courier-Dispatch, with care and have found nothing offensive.

Utah, June 9,~ Today’s sessions of the conference of western governors were devoted main ly to drafting an address to the public outlining what changes were considered advisable in government control of nat ural resources in order to obtain the highest efficiency. Clay Tallman, commissioner of the land office, was the first speaker. “I am not here to defend,” he said, ”in fact, I am not going to try to de fend the actions of the department In the past. I am here as a construction ist.” Commissioner Tallman asked a series of questions of the governors with a view of ascertaining the exact changes wanted. Especial attention was given to the position of the United States for est service, it being alleged by some of the governors that the administration of the service had discouraged mining and prospecting. Mr. Tallman said that as far as he was concerned, if the prospector con fined his work to actual prospecting and obeys the rules of the forest service there will be no disposition on the part of the administration to hinder, but ev ery effort will be made to encourage. There was a general discussion of national control of oil and mineral lands. Some of the governors took the position that blanket withdrawals should stop. Both Assistant Jones and Commis sioner Tallman indicated that the ad ministration’s policy would b© the freest opening of all mineral and oil lands to the honest developers. of the lake was vested in the state of Tennessee and that the lake Is naviga ble in a technical legal sense. The ob ject of the procedings was to have the state acquire the lake by condemnation proceedings. Chief Justice Nell dis sented. SURRENDERS TO FRIEND FOR REWARD OF $250 WINCHESTER, Ky., June 9.—One good turn deserves another, Is the philosophy that a man giving his name as Shade McIntosh acted on, according to his story, wh&n he sought an inter view with Jailer Mullins here last night and confessed to him that he-was wanted for murder and that a reward of $260 for his capture was the jailer’s for the asking. McIntosh was arrested on a charge of drunkenness and was turned over to Mullins, who treated him so kindly, he said, that he resolved to confess to him and allow his benefactor to claim the reward. The man is said to have killed Robert Murphy at Heidelburg, near here, three weeks ago. When ar rested for drunkenness he gave his name as Frank Bagley. DANIELS MAKES TRIP IN LAUNCH DURING STORM WASHINGTON, June 9.—Secretary Daniels and Mrs. Daniels made a run of several miles up the Potomac today in a motor launch while a heavy thun derstorm played over the waters and spilled torrents.
