THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA.. FRIDAY, JUNE 20, 1913.
Ir-iBishop W, A, Candler Declares
£ $1,000,000 to Vanderbilt
Jp University Is- Not “a Dona-
III tion, but a Denaturing"
The recently announced gift of
B $1,000,000 to the Vanderbilt university,
Of Nashville, Tenn., by Mr. Andrew
Carnegie is, in the opinion of Bishop
ijSpCandler, not so much a donation to the
$g;universlty as an attempt’ to “denature
g*?the Institution."
To a representative of The Journal
Bishop Candler said Wednesday:
SE. “This loud-heralded gift appears, on
Unclose inspection of the terms of the
j^peffer, to b© no gift at all, but a shrewd
v2S»ttempt to get control of a part of the
property of Vanderbilt university in
order to set up a medical school fash
ioned according to the peculiar ideas of
SMr. Carnegie and his educational era-
gployes.
“In the first announcement of the so-
g^called gift the essential terms of the
gift and the expressions of purpose ac
companying it were held back. The re
quest of a member of the board of
trust, even, who asked to see the
papers in the case, was refused. What
**J;was contained in the letter of Mr. Car-
'^negie was not known to any one out-
1 side an inner circle until last Monday,
when the board of trust met. The mat
ter was so serious that Major Millsaps,
a member of the board of trust from
^ {"Mississippi, moved that the question of
.accepting the gift be postponed until
jUthe members of the board could have
time to consider it. This motion was
rejected, and the motion to accept the
gift put through with inconsiderate
haste. On Tuesday four of the board of
trust offered a protest against the ac-
^^ceptance of the Carnegie proposals.
~_When the public sees Mr. Carnegie’s
#ks ~ letter the protest of these worthy gen
tlemen will be generally approved, if I
•“‘ini not greatly mistaken.
BELONGS TO METHODISTS.
a “The Vanderbilt university belongs to
snTthe Methodist Episcopal Church, South.
.X^The church’s ownership having been
ftc^denied, suit was brought by order of
-^iLthe general conference some time ago
to settle the question, and the chancery
court decided every point in favor of
^ the church. From that decision those
who deny the church’s rights took an
appeal, which is now pending in the su
preme court of Tennessee. 'To this Mr.
Carnegie makes allusion in his letter,
^putting His offer in such relation to this
flbuit as to make it tantamount to dang
ling money before the public with the
purpose of influencing the case. He also
3 denies the ability of any and all cherches
to manage and control educational insti
tutions—a preposterous piece of igno
rance and confident assertion which the
whole history of education in Christen
dom for a thousand years contradicts.
$ViHis expressions about the churches are
' as discreditable to him as his condition
ing a gift on the result of a pending
suit is ihdecent..

Georgian Quits Post
In Shanghai Three
Days After Arrival
B-7 RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, June 1*.—Three
J' weeks in Shanghai, China, sufficed at
„*,;ronce to sicken Dr. J. H. Hollis, of
'fi .Buena Vista. Marion' county, Georgia,
' of the American foreign service and
cure him of all desire for government
H o service so far removed from dear old
•^Georgia.
^ Dr. Hollis passed through Washington
a day or two ago en route from Shanghai
? "*to Buena Vista. He stopped here long
CTi&enough to resign a $3,600 position in
gorthe United States public health and
„)/finarine hospital service.
Dr. Hollis was “Shanghaied" by Con-
^..gresBman Adamson, Of the Fourth dis-
^ " trict, whose constituent he is. The
judge succeeded in securing for Dr.
Hollis an appointment in the public
♦-^health service. He was assigned to
-^service in Shanghai by Dr. Rupert Blue,
..^surgeon general.
The appointment and assignment were
* ■ satisfactory to Dr. Hpllis until he had
actual experience in China. Before
leave Georgia he sold most of his prop-
erty, gave up his practice and prepared
to have his family join him in Shanghai.
^ Three days after reaching the post, Dr.
~ ~ Hollis was seized with a very severe ill-
- neBS. Physicians in "Shanghai told him
that the climate and water would result
£5; in his death, and he caught the first
boat for America.
Dr. Hollis is highly regarded by Sur-
"^'geon General Blue, who regretted ex-
TT ceedingly his resignation. It is possi-
S&lble that he will be induced to re-enter
the service and given an assignment
more to his liking. .
BOTH GAINED
Man and Wife Fatten on
t Grape-Nuts
2J-- The notion that meat is necessary for
5£real strength and the foundation of solid
wflesh is now i\p longer as prevalent as
formerly.
Excessive meat eaters are usually
sluggish a part of the time because they
;are not able to fully digest their food,
and. the undigested portion is changed
•into what is practically a kind of poison
that acts upon the blood and nerves,
Vthus getting all through the system.
“I was a heavy meat eater,” writes an
Ills, mari, “and up to two years ago, was
»in very poor health. I suffered with in
digestion so that I only weighed 95
pounds.
“Then I heard about Grape-Nuts food
and decided to try it. My wife laughed
_Jat me at first, but when I gained to 125
pounds and felt so fine, she thought she
^would eat Grape-Nuts too. Now. she
fat and well and has gained 40 pounds.
We never have indigestion any more and
T. seldom feel the desire for meat.
IT “A neighbor of ours, 68 years old, was
•troubled with indigestion for years, and
was a heavy meat eater. Kfow since
-p he has been eating Grape-Nuts regular-
£■ ly, he says he is well and never has
y* indigestion.
{2 “I could name a lot of persons who
have rid themselves of indigestion by
J changing from a heavy meat diet to
Grape-Nuts.” “There’s a Reason.”

HEARS OF CANCER CURE
Dr, W, B, Mayor Declares Be
fore Convention That Cancer
of Stomach Is Curable
MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., June 18.—
In fifteen sectional meetings the sec
ond day of the sixty-fourth annual
convention of the American Medical as
sociation opened today. Various sub
jects were discussed.
That cancer of the stomach is a cur
able disease was the declaration of Dr.
William B. Mayo, of Rochester, Minn.
“A favorable diagnosis can be estab
lished by simple methods." he asserted.
“A history of gastris disturbances pre
cedes cancer in a large number if not
the majority of cases. Operations for
cancer of the stomach should begin as
an exploration. Moderate involvement
of the pancreas does not necessarily
preclude operation. Palliative opera
tions have a field of usefulness.”
Dr. Mayo gave a review of statis
tics of signs and symptoms observed
in one thousand patients operated on
for cancer of the stomach.
Radium as a physical agency was
discussed in a paper by Dr. Howard
A. Kelly, of Baltimore. Its action, he
said, is local and it is destined to be
a potent aid in the treatment of gyne
cology. He asserted that radium will
cure some cancers and will especially
eliminate many * cases of local recur
rence which are difficult to treat by
many of the customary surgical meth
ods.
TREATMENT OF TUMORS*.
Its importance in the treatment oT
fibroid tumors is just beginning to be
recognized. It checks hemorrhage and
in some cases materially decreases the
size of the growths. In pelvic inflam
matory diseases its use is very helpful,
but this, he said, is still a new field.
Lantern slides were used by Dr. J.
A. Stucky, of Lexington, Ky., to il
lustrate a paper on trachoma among
the mountaineers of eastern Kentucky.
The increase of this disease In twenty-
five years among the Anglo-Saxons 01
these mountains led Dr. Stucky to make
a trip of observation through five coun
ties on muleback.
He described unmistakably evidence
of the infeciousness and destructtive-
ness of the disease. He gave the dele
gates what he considered a solution of
the problem of eradicating the malady.
Trachoma among the Indians was dis
cussed in a paper by Dr. J. W. Schere-
wesky, of Washington, D. C. He assert
ed of 39,000 Indians in the United States
17 per cent were suffering from trach
oma. The incidence of the disease va-
amined in Oklahoma to 0.2 per cent in
ries from over 70 per cent of those ex-
New York state. The disease was most
prevalent among Indians of the boarding
schools and least among those on res
ervations. ...
NEEDLESS BLINDNESS.
Six thousand needles cases of blind
ness occur in the United States each
year. This statement was made by
Henry Copley Greene, agent for the
conservation of eyesight of the Massa
chusetts commission for the blind.
This statement; Mr. Greene said, was
a challenge to the medical profession
and called for the co-operation of Ocu
lists, social workers and law makers.
Much of the needless blindness, he said,
was due to lack of attention to sore
eyes among babies. ; -
While Dr. C. D. Camp, of Ann Arbor,
Mich., had noted no undue proportion of
cases of epilepsy and parsis among lc
comotive engineers and firemen, he sug
gested that it would be in the interest
of the traveling public to examine can
didates for these positions as to these
Afflictions.
SUFFRAGIST KILLS SELF

Aldeti Smith Charges
Labor With Lobbying
U. S, Senator From Michigan
Declares Before Probe That
Lobby Exists in Washington
and That He Approves It
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON. June 17.—Senator
William Alden Smith, of Michigan, de-
dared before the senate lobby investi
gating committee today that the dause
in the sundry civil bill now awaiting
President Wilson’s signature exempting
labor unions and farmers’ organizations
from prosecution under the Sherman
anti-trust law represented the work
of a lobby.
“The very bill on the president’s desk
this morning,” he aaid, “was put
through by a lobby of labor organiza
tions. They know there is class leg
islation in 4t. Samuel Gompers admit
ted to me it was class legislation,
“Of course the American Federation
of Labor has a lobby here. I don’t
condemn it. They have a right to be
here; so have the sugar people and the
others. I think there is a very con
siderable lobby here; there always will
be and I think it is appropriate.
“In everything I have done here I
have encountered the lobby. It does
not do any harm.
“I encountered it in the Titanic in
vestigation and the Mexican revolu
tion.”
Senator Smith added he kknew John
Norris, of the “newspaper people” had
been here for free print .paper.
He added that the “temperance peo
ple” had maintained a lobby in Wash
ington. .
Senator Smitn said he approved of
the use of influence by presidents. He
said that every president since Cleve
land had undertaken to influence legis
lation.

Governor Blease to Break Up
Practice of all Flangings
on Friday
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
COLUMBIA, S. C., June 19.—“The
designation of Friday as 'Hangsman’s
day’ is loathsome. Why should it bo
picked out as a day to execute crimi
nals, I have stated, on a number of oc
casions, by objection to this practice
and as long as I have the power to ob
viate this custom I am going to do so.
Friday is enjoyed by all the people
equally as much as any other day in
the week, therefore, why set it apart as
‘Hangsman’s day,?’” said Governor
Blease this morning in ordering the sen
tence by electrocution passed on M. L.
Garrett, the Lee county white murderer,
changed from Friday, July 11, to Mon
day, July 14.
The governor is determined to break
up the custom of executing criminals on
Friday, and thinks it tends to make the
day loathsome. In ordering the date of
the execution of Sam Dukes, the negro
Clarendon county murderer, changed
from Friday, 27, to Tuesday, July 1, the
governor says:
"Why, when or how prevailing custom
of sentencing people to be hanged or
electrocuted on Friday should have
been adopted in this state, I am unable
to say. Friday is just as good as any
other day in the week, and I think it an
abominable custom and practice to sen
tence all of the unfortunate persons to
die on Friday, thereby degrading the
day by designating it as ‘Hangsman’s
day.’ This custom and practice should
be abolished and I expect to do away
with it while I am in office.”
From the inception of the state it has
been customary to hold all legal execu
tions on Friday, and judges were accus
tomed to sentence air condemned crim
inals to death on that day. Governor
Blease has set himself the task cf
breaking up this custom.
FROM FLORIDA CAPITOL
MARTINF RATHER SWEEP
STREETS THAN OWN MINE
Mine Probe Is Overshadowed
by Dispute Between Senator
and Operator
(By Associated Press.)
CHARLESTON, W. Va., June 19.—The
senate committee investigating the West
Virginia coal strike today rushed along
the examination of witnesses to dispose
of as many as possible before leaving
for Washington tonight.
The attitude of Senator Martine, of
New Jersey, who yesterday clashed with
Qyinn Morton, an operator, and the at
torneys for the operators, became a mat
ter of concern today.
The operators’ lawyers declare Sena
tor Martine has been unfair in his exam
ination of and prejudiced in his attitude
toward the operators. They said that
when the committee reaches Washington
they will put into the records evidence
of statements by Senator Martine to
Bhow that he has “prejudiced the case.”
A statement purporting to come from
Senator Martine and reproduced in fac
simile of his handwriting by a newspa
per circulated, throughout tjie 6tate to
day aroused considerable discussion. The
statement sets forth that Senator Mar
tine, “would rather sweep the streets
than earn his money as the West Vir
ginia coal operators do.”
Attorneys declared they would place
this statement in the records.
Senator Martine today sat throughout
the hearings, but asked no questions,
under an agreement reached that Sena
tor Kenyon was to take sole charge of
examining witnesses.
John A. Greene, superintendent of the
Mucklow mine of the Paint Creek col
lieries company when the strike broke
out, said guards were not placed on
Paint Creek until men at work had been
interfered with by strikers. When the
guards arrived they were not armed
but after strikers had made a demon
stration, he said, the guards were in
creased and armed.
Walter Belk, who was for a time in
charge of the guards, defended their
conduct. He said that after the battle
of Mucklow he searched the hills and
found places carefully prepared for the
shooting. He said men evidently had
been in these places for hours before
hey began firing.
Attorney Belcher caused a start in
the committee room when he asked Belk:
“Isn’t it true that fifteen or twenty
armed men connected with your agency,
have been in this room throughout this
investigation.
“I could not say as to that,” answered

W, W, Finley Says He Has No
Personal Interest in Timber
Lands
BY BAX.PK SMITH.
WASHINGTON, D. C., June 18.—The
name of President W. W. Finley, of the
Southern railway, having been used on
the floor of the house in connection
with attacks on conservation in the
west. Representative Austin wrote
President Finley calling his attention
to the speech of Mr. Humphrey, and re
ceived an answer which has been
placed in the Congressional Record.
The Southern railway president says
he has absolutely no personal interest
in timber lands anywhere, and the only
interest of the Southern railway in th©
matter is the adoption by forest owners
of the southeast of such forestry prac
tice as may tend to advance the gen
eral prosperity of the territory along
the company’s lines.
Belk.
“Don’t you know that your men have
been # hired to ©had.ow gentlemen con
nected with the investigation?”
“I could not say as to that because
that is not my line of work.”
Attorney Knight denied vigorously
that detectives had been hired by the
operators to shadow men connected with
the investigation.

BACON FIGHTS AGAINST
Georgia Senator Declares Hia;
erta’s Regime Is a Rev
olutionary Government
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, June 19.—“The
Huerta government ip a revolutionary
government and, not the result of a le
gitimate succession to the Madero ad
ministration,” declared Senator Bacon,
chairman of the senate foreign rela
tions committee, today as he left the
White House.
“I am not in favor of recognition.*
said he. “I don’t see any serious move
ment in Washington leaning in that di
rection. A large p&i*t of Mexico is up in
arms and the northern part is in control
of the constitutionalists and until there
is complete peace and order and legal
elections there should be no recognition.
I approve of the policy of the president
in withholding recognition, as there does
not appear to be a stable regime in ex
istence in the Mexican republic.”
