BULGARIANS STILL HOLD
CITADEL OF ADRIANOPLE
Report of Its Reoccupation
by Turkish Troops Shown
to Be False
(By. Associated Press.)
SOFIA, Bulgaria. July 24.—The report
of the reoccupation of Adrianople by
Turkish troops was shown today to be
false. It was spread by fugitive Bulga
rian officials from that city who heard
that a reconnoitering force of Turkish
cavalry commanded by the notorious En
ver Bey had been seen in the vicinity.
At this news the officials fled panic-
stricken, believing that the entire Otto
man army was about to descend on the
place.
Communication was restored today be
tween the Bulgarian capital and the cit
adel of Adrianople. Official reports
from the Bulgarian commander there
showed that the Turkish troops retired
after reconnoitering the position.
The Bulgarian government has order
ed the fugitive civil functionaries to
return to their posts. Similar instruc
tions have been sent to Bulgarian offi
cials who fled from various places in
the province of Thrace.

Widows of Man of
Double Life Decide
To Live Together
(By Associated Press.)
LA CROrirfE, Wis., July 24.—An un
usual sequel to the exposure of the
double life of Wilfred B. Frost, who
died in a Chicago hospital -on February
28, came today, when the Chicago widow
of Frost came here, met the La Crosse
widow and left with her and the latter's
children for .Chicago, the two women
agreeing to make their home together
for the remainder of their lives.
In Chicago Frost had a wife, a son of
twenty-one years and a daughter, nine
teen years old. In La Crosse, where, he
was known as Dr. Wilfred B. Montclair,
he had a wife and two boys of three
and two years. Until his death each
family was in ignorance or tne other’s
existence, and Frost, or Montclair, was
considered a model husband and father,
whose business took him away from
home much of the time. Revelations of
his doubled life prostrated both widows.

COLUMBIA PRESIDENT
DISCUSSES THE CANAL
Urges Importance of an Un
derstanding With the
United States
(By Asiociated Press.)
BOGOTA, Colombia, July 24.—Refer
ences to the Panama canal occupied a
prominent place in President Carlos E.
Restrepo’s annual message today to the
Colombian congress.
The president said that the aproach-
Ing completion of the canal, the develop
ment of the country at large and the
special interests of the coast provinces
rendered daily more Important an un
derstanding with the United States.
‘The Colombian government,” he con
tinued, “has refused the propositions
made by James T. Du Bois, the United
States minister, as not affording that
reparation and satisfaction desired by
the nation.”
The new administration at Washing
ton has inspired the Colombian people
with great hopes. After the arrival of
the new American minister, Thaddeus
Thompson, the president hopes to sub
mit satisfactory terms for a settlement
of the Panama affair to this* congress.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 24.—The
inspection of the Atlanta postofflee has
beep completed and the report is now in
the hands of First Assistant Postmaster
General Daniel G. Roper, awaiting his
consideration.
As a result of the inspection it is
stated on reliable authority that Post
master Hugh L. McKee and Assistant
Postmaster DeWitt C. Cole will be
succeeded within thirty days by officials
to be named by the postoffice depart
ment.
Senator Hoke Smith will recommend
the nomination of Bolling Jones as post
master, and the assistant probably will
be picked from among the clerks on
the eligible list, as the place is covered
by the civil service regulations.
While First Assistant Postmaster
General Roper today declined to discuss
the report of the inspectors, who made
a careful and painstaking investigation
of the Atlanta office, it is understood
that the report charges both McKee and
Cole with general lack of proficiency in
the management of the office, and
recommends an immediate change for
the good of the service.
Postmaster McKee was in Washington
last week In conference with the first
assistant postmaster general, and it is
reported that he came to defend him
self against the charges of the inspec
tor. Mr. Roper stated today, however,
that Mr. McKee stopped in Washington
en route to New York only to pay his
respects to the officials of the depart
ment.
"I haven’t taken up the report on the
Atlanta office,” said Mr. Roper. *T can
not say when I will reach it, but I hope
to give it consideration at an early
date. The same is true of the report
on the Savannah postofflee, which also
was inspected.”
Postmaster McKee’s term ordinarily
would not expire until next year and
the tenure of the assistant postmaster
ordinarily is given indefinite periods.
Mr. Cole came to Atlanta as assistant
postmaster shortly following Mr. Mc
Kee’s appointment. Prior to that time
he had served as postmaster at Mari
etta, where he now lives.
In the event First Assistant Post-
moster General Roper agrees upon the
report against Messrs. McKee and Cole
as it is believed he will do, the “buck”
will be passed along to Postmaster
Burleson. If he follows the usual
course he probably will ask for Mr.
McKee’s resignation as he did in the
case of H. S. Edwards, the Macon post
master.
Should the resignation be not forth
coming, the usual procedure would be
for the postmaster general to recom
mend to the president the appointment
of a successor, and the confirmation of
the man named by the president would
act as an ouster against Mr. McKee.
The investigation of the Atlanta post-
office was ordered some weeks ago by
the postoffice department, as was in
dicated in the dispatches. It was pred
icated immediately upon charges of in
efficient service, lack of discipline
among the clerks, and general dissatis
faction with the service in Atlanta.
Begging for a Kiss
Husband Shoots Wife
And Attempts Suicide
KANSAS CITY, July 24.—“Kiss me
good-by and I’ll never bother you
again,” begged Albert Snyder of his
wife Olivete, then fired a bullet into tier
forehead and turned the weapon on him
self in front of a downtown store to
day. Recovery of either is doubtful. Mrs.
Snyder had sued for divorce.
ONE GIRL PUTS UP
4,000 CANS OF FRUIT
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
VALDOSTA, Ga., July 24.—The re
ports from the Boys’ Corn club and the
Girls’ Canning club show that the school
girls in Lowndes county are putting up
many thousands of cans of vegetables,
fruits, etc., and that all of the girls
together will probably put up more can
goods this year than are usuall sold
in all of the stores of Valdosta during
the year.
One little girl in the Ousley district
has already piYt up over 4,000 cans of
fruits and vegetables. Two sisters in
the Bethany district have put up 1,000
cans each, while all of the girls have
put up from several dozens into the
hundreds of cans. There are * large
number of girls in tall of the district
doing canning club work. Their exhib
its of canned goods at the county fair
next fall is going to be a very fine one.
The stockholders here are very highly
pleased at the showing which is being
made by the instructors in this depart
ment.
TIFT WOOL GROWERS
SELL CLIP JULY 26
T
BOUNDS. SAYS BEEASE
TIFTON. Ga., July 24.—Following a
custom of many years’ standing, the
wool growers of Tift county and ad
joining territory will, meet here Satur
day, July 26, for the purpose of dispos
ing of their clip for the year.
The growers of this section, realiz
ing that the best prices can be obtained
by selling their clip in bulk at the
end of each shearing season, set a
date when they meet buyers in Tifton
and dispose of their wool. In past
years when there were many more acres
of wiregrass land in this section than
there are now, the annual wool sale
was one of the big trading events of
the year and brought many thousands
of dollars to the growers. Now the
sheep are few and scattered and the
sales are small. It is expected that be
tween thirty and fifty bales will be of
fered on the market here Saturday.

Issue No More Orders Before
Submitting Them to Gov,
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
COLLTMBIA, S. C., July 24.—A severe
rebuke was given Adjutant General
Moore today by Governor Blease for his
action in ordering three of the compa
nies of the Third regiment now en
camped at Aiken, home because they did
not have the required number of men,
the governor saying that the adjutant
general had assumed to himself au
thority which he did not have and which
is lodged solely in the governor as com-
mander-in-chief. The governor prom
ises to make an investigation into the
whole matter and says that things
must be in more pleasant conditions or
he will call off the encampments at An
derson and Camp Willie Jones, the First
regiment being under orders to encamp
at Anderson this week and the Second at
Camp Willie Jones, near Columbia, in
August.
Captain J. H. Claffy, commander of
the Orangeburg company, one of the
three sent home because it did not
have the required quota of men, re
ported the matter to Governor Blease
this morning, saying Adjutant General
Moore had told him' his company could
not even draw rations and transporta
tion. In a telegram to Colonel Julius
E. Cogswell .commander of the Third
regiment, Governo Blease says the adju
tant general is without authority to
issue any orders except as a representa
tive of the commander-in-chief, and he
hasn’t given him any such authority.
The governor said he understood that
companies falling below the quota were
entitled to transportation and subsist
ence while in camp, and that had the
matter been reported to him the whole
thing could have been avoided and the
companies remained in camp.
In a letter to Captain Claffy the gov
ernor assures him his company is ex
cused from field duty this year and need
fear no harm. Referring to the adjutant
general he says:
“I dislike to think that the man is
drunk on power, or that he has lost his
head on account of his promotion, but
there is something peculiarly strange
about his conduct.”
The governor orders the adjutant gen
eral to issue no more orders, no matter
ho winsignificant, ‘‘by order of the cam-
mander-in-chief,”- unless the same is
personally presented to him.
Heat in Washington
Drives Ambassadors
To Summer Resorts
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—In spite of
the imminence of the passage of a new
tariff law and the existence of grave
foreign questions it developed today that
of the forty nations represented here
only one ambassador and eight minis
ters have remained in the capital. The
others have surrendered to the Wash
ington heat and have slipped away by
ones and twos to the mountains and the
seashore. The situation is considered
out of the ordinary, for congress is in
session and the president of the United
States remains actively at work at the
White House.
Of the ambassadors the only one re
maining in Washington is Viscount
Chinda, whose presence here is necessi
tated by reason of the California alien
land law controversy. The eight min
sters who are sticking to their posts are
representatives, with the exception of
the Cuban minister, of Central and
South American countries. They are ac
customed to tropical weather in their
own countries, however, and are not
suffering. The others have fled before
the torridity.

WIFE TURNS UP HUSBAND
TO NEW ORLEANS POLICE
(By Associated Press.)
CHICAGO. July 24.—How a wife’s
jealousy caused her to furnish inform
ation which led to her husband’s be
trayal to the police, was revealed today
when Detective Charles F. Mellen, of
New Orleans, left Chicago for the south
ern city with Jules A. Zatfrain, thirty-
two years old, who is charged with lar
ceny involving $3,700. Zatfrain was ar
rested here yesterday.
Zatfrain formerly owned a tailor shop
in New Orleans and obtained $3,700

without paying for it a year and a half
ago. Later Zatfrain disappeared, but
subsequently was seen in New Orleans
in company with another woman. The
wife traced the couple to Chicago and
notified the police.

SENATE IS SUED
Senator Fall, of New Mexico,
Demands Passage of His
Resolution to Give Full Pro
tection to Americans
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Senator
Fall, of New Mexico, today called up
his resolution for the protection of
American citizens in foreign countries.
It refers to conditions in Mexico. Chair
man Bacon, of the foreign relations
committee, demanded that it be sent
to that committee, so that its terms
might be carefully weighed.
Senator Fall asked that it be passed
at once, aserting that it was thorough
ly understood by every senator.
BACON CONSERVATIVE.
Senator Bacon insisted that the peo
ple of the United States are in a grave
position of responsibility “at this time,
and any enunciation of principle such
as this should be thoroughly consid
ered.”
Senator Bacon asked if the resolution
did not mean that the United States
should send an armed force into Mexico
to protect American citizens.
Senator Stone, reviewing certain con
dition in Mexico, declared he would
favor sending an armed force.
Senator Williams maintained that a
citizen of the United States has no con
stitutional rights in foreign countries.
Amended, he thought, such a resolution
ought to be passed “to strengthen the
arm of the secretary of state.”
Resolution in House
Asks for Intervention
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Representa
tive William H. Murray, of Oklahoma,
well known as “Alfalfa Bill,” Introduced
an elaborate set of resolutions today, in
which he invites the senate to concur,
directing intervention in Mexico if
order and peace are not restored within
thirty days after President Wilson
issues a proclamation to that effect.
Murray’s resolutions characterize Pro
visional President Huerta as a “usurp
ing marauder, a black-handed murderer,
and his regime as founded upon treach
ery, duplicity and murder.”
CABINET MEETING DELAYED.
The regular cabinet meeting slated
for today did not take place because at
the last moment it was discovered that
most of the secretaries were out of
town. President Wilson denied himself
to callers and remained in his study,
taking up state department reports and
papers on the Mexican situation and
considering the proposed Nicaraguan
treaty.
Changes in the plans of Ambassador
Henry Lane "Wilson, now hurrying north
from Mexico City, so that he will con
tinue from Havana to New York by
sea, instead of landing at Key West and
proceeding by rail to Washington, are
expected to make a day’s difference in
the time of the ambassador’s arrival.
The conference at which Mr. Wilson
is to lay before the president and Sec
retary Bryan a first-hand report of the
situation in Mexico, upon which some
important development may be based,
probably will not take place before Sat
urday.
Meanwhile the situation, so far as
the United States is concerned, seems
to be unchanged,.
Roosevelt Nominated
For Mexic Ambassador
(By Associated Press.;
DENISON. Tex., July 24.—A telegram
to President Wilson, recommending the
appointment of Colonel Theodore Roose
velt as ambassador to Mexico, protec
tion to American citizens in Mexico, and
steps by the United States “to go to
the assistance of our sister republic,’’
was sent from here last night by a
special trainload of Americans who
have just made a trip throug n parts of
the Rio Grande valley.
Its signers numbered i-fty-four. They
did not give their home addresses, but
signed as “citizens from Iowa, Illinois,
Minnesota, Missour iand other states.”
They had been investigating land int
ves-ments along the Texas-Mexican bor
der.
No Demonstration
Wanted by Japan
(By Associated Press.)
MEXICO CITY, July 24.—Japan,
through its charge d’affaires here, has
suggested to the Huerta government
that it will not sanction any demon
stration upon the arrival of the Japa
nese minister which might partake of
an anti-American character. The charge
d’affaires said at the same time, how
ever, that his government was pleased
at the manifestations of Mexican friend
ship.
Wire communication in a round
about way has been established between
the capital and Laredo. The first tele
gram in many months from Laredo was
received late last night, being sent by
the citizens there congratulating Presi
dent Huerta upon the progress of his
administration.
The disappearance of the rebels from
the railroads to the east and west of
San Luis Potosi has enabled the
authorities to reopen the lines to
Aguas Calientes and Tampico. The
rebels on the main line of the National
railway have moved farther south, how
ever, and were reported last night at
Rocas, the first station north of San
Luis.

Secretary Lane Announces
That Every Case Will Be
Tried on Merits
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Secretary
Lane, of the interior department, today
announced there would be no compro
mising of suits brought by the govern
ment against private individuals for the
fraudulent entry and taking of govern
ment lands. The suits will be fought
out on their merits, as a matter of prin
ciple.
In a letter to Clay Tillman, commis
sioner of the general land office, the
secretary said: “I am opposed to this
department being the party to the com
promising of land suits which involve a
serious breach of the law. for these rea
sons:
“Such compromises necessarily in
volve a repudiation in some part of the
government’s claims.
“This office is required to set itself
up in the place of the courts as to both
law and facts.
“The policy of compromising cases
leads to the bringing of cases which
should never have been brought, for the
officials will be less regardful of their
facts where there is a likelihood that
the case will never be fought out upon
its merits.
“Such a policy of compromising leads
inevitably to continued breaches of the
law, especially by wealthy and reckless
individuals who believe that if their
wrong is discovered they will be able to
‘settle with the government.’ ”
The secretary concluded with a de
fense of the policy, under which, he ad
mitted. “the government doubtless will
lose many suits which otherwise could
be compromised.”
He insisted, however, that it would
develop respect for the law among the
people at large and among those whose
duty it is to see that the law is obeyed.

essary to Replace Gold
Leaf on Landmark
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, July 24.—Repairs are
necessary to the golden dome that
crowns the library of congress, and con
gress probably will be called upon be-
for adjournment to authorize the ex
penditure of $50,000 to replace the golf
leaf that has made the dome a glisten
ing landmark. The sun, wind and rain,
throughout seventeen years, have had
their effect upon the dome, and the leaf
now is beginning to peel. In view of
the fact that the dome of the capitol re
cently has been cleaned and refurnished
it Is believed congress will make pro
vision for the rehabilitation of the
neighboring buildings.
