General Moore had characterized Gov- enor Blease’s cnucis as “cheap poli tics,” and the governor says he is will ing to leave It to the two colonels in the adjutant general's office to say whether or not he is right. The governor did not call off the en campments of the First and Second reg iments, and the former went into camp •t Anderson yesterday.

The comptroller general says the legislature made no appropriation for anything other than the actual expenses of the attorney general incurred while attending the meeting, and sent the account back to him, saying only about $25 was all that could be legally paid and asking him to revise it accordingly. HERE’S A GOOD CHANCE TO MAKE BIG MONEY Government Wants Americans to Raise Foxes in Alaska NEW YORK, July 28.—Several Ca nadians have written to the department of commerce seeking to buy some of the blue and silver foxes from the govern ments preserves in Alaska, but no citi zen oL the United States has made sim ilar request, although the department is anxious to get Americans to go in for fox breeding. Assitant Secretary Sweet declared to day that good profits await those who take up the industry. The government, he said* has several small islands off the Alaskan coast, which it will lease to any- one who desires them for fox farming, and at the same time the gov ernment will furnish breeding animals at low prices. There_ are several fox-raising estab lishments in Canada, said Mr. Sweet, which are reported to be making big profits, and as the skins bring fancy prices in London, the center of the fur selling trade, he thought citizens of the United States should be reaping part of the returns. BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON. D. C., July 28.—It was learned today on good authority that the nomination of Adam E. Pat terson, an Oklahoma negro, for register of the treasury, was sent to the senate on Friday through an inadvertence. Prominent Democratic senators, who view the nomination with misgiving were much relieved when they returned today and they are hopeful that the negroe’s name will be withdrawn by the president. In connection with the Patterson nom ination it was learned today also that Senator Hoke Smith is opposed to his confirmation and has an appointment at the White House Monday morning for the conference with the president about the matter. He will voice a protest against the selection of negroes of federal offices and will urge Mr. Wil son to withdraw Patterson’s name. The president, it is understood was moved to the consideration of a negro for register of the treasury not through a personal desire to recognize the black race, but because of representations to him that political expediency demanded that the negroes be given some rec ognition by the administration. North ern Democrats in both the senate and house who look with favor on Patter son's nomination are understood to have urged the importance of giving this place to a negro as a reward to the black race for its friendliness to the Democratic party in close northern states. The office—register of the treasury— is claimed by the negroes as their ex clusive patronage. For many years it has been held by a negro. The re tiring register, James C. Napier, of Tennessee, is a negro, as was his pre decessor. The office was once held by Judson Lyons, a negro, of Augusta. The opposition to negroes for federal offices is general among southern Dem ocrats in the senate and should the president be unable to find a way out of appointing them, it is safe to say that all such nominations will have a rough road to travel toward confirma tion. Senator Bacon, like his colleague, is opposed to nominations of negroes, and their objections are shared by Senators Simmons, of North Carolina; Tillman and Smith, of South Carolina; Fletcher, of Florida; Williams and Vardeman, of Mississipi, and many others. These senators will urge that the nomination be withdrawn and if the president fails to do so they will or ganize an opposition to confirmation. RENOUNCES THE JORN WILLIAM DAVIS FOR FAVORABLE REPORT FOR NOMINATION OF* GERARD Frederick C, Penfield and Charles S, Hartman Names Also Will Get 0, K, WASHINGTON.

LOBBY COMMITTEE TO DISCUSS TARIFF BILL WASHINGTON, July 28.—Senator Lippett today had referred to the sen ate lobby investigating committee a published interview with Chairman Downing, of the New York Merchants’ association tariff committee in which It was claimed that the association’s committee had much to do with modi fication of adminitsrative features of the tariff bill by the senate "finance committee. Chairman Simmons, of the finance committee, said he never had heard of Downing. The senate resumed consideration of the chemical schedules. Senator Lodge moved to strike the duty off peanut oil, declaring it was used largely in the manufacture of butterine. Norwegian Minister Dead (By Associated Press.)

Va., rep resentative of the First West Virginia congressional district, was nominated today by President Wilson to be solic itor general of the United States.

Prizes Amounting to $400 Have Been Raised-Crops in Fine Shape (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) JACKSON, Ga., July 28.—Prizes amounting to about $400 have been rais ed in Jackson and Butts county for the members of the Corn club, farmers as well as business men having given lib- eraly to the fund. The prize list has not yet been made up and all the con tributions are not in, two or three of the district committees not having re ported. This will swell the total con siderably. This is the second year of the Corn club work in Butts county and results greater than expected are being accom plished. Last year the club had only thirty-two members, while over fifty joined this year. The boys are said to have their work well in hand and some good yields are expected this fall. The highest yield last year was ninety-two bushels, and a new record will probably be made by the members of the club in 1913. Rev, Chas, S, Davidson, For merly of Atlanta, Burns His Vestments (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., .July 28.— Burning his vestments and prayer book at the gate of historic Monticello, Rev. Charles Steele Davidson, for ftve years rector of St. Mark’s Episcopal church, Cleveland, Ohio, and later pastor of churches in Brooklyn and Atlanta, re nounced the ministry and in a written statement caustically criticised the Episcopal church, which he leaves. Dr. Davidson is a son of Captain Hunter Davidson, who did torpedo service on the James river during the Civil War and later was sent to investi gate the Franco-Prussian war in 1871 by President Grant. Briefly, his statement says: “Here on Friday, the 25th of July, 1913, at the gate of Monticello, at the home of the apostle of the people’s political free dom, I burn the vestments of an im portant priesthood, the empty emblems of ecclesiasticism, the mockeries of royal priesthood. Here I burn the prayer book, the fetish of a false wor ship, the idol of the diluted word of God.’’ Dr. Davidson says he retains the ministry, which he received from the Lord Jesus, and says the Bible is a sufficient guide book to all men. WHOLE FIRE DEPT. GOES ON STRIKE OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla., July 28.— The Oklahoma city fire department con sisting of ninety men, struck today be cause the city commissioners had cut their wages and dismissed their chief. Thirty citizens have been detailed by Acting Fire Chief John Von Elm to take the strikers’ places and other Ok lahoma cities have been asked to lend their experienced extra firemen to the department.

It is quite certain- that a packing ,house will • be established be fore next spring. Thift meeting will probably be the be ginning of a series of farmers’ insti tutes which will continue throughout the year. BELIEVE NEW YORK COP COMMITTED SUICIDE (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, July 28.—The belief ex pressed yesterday that Policeman James E. Cahill, who was found dead in the yard of St. Matthews Catholic church in Brooklyn Monday morning, had com mitted suicide, is now the definite con clusion reached by Deputy Police Com missioner Dougherty, who took personal charge of the inquiry into the supposed killing of the policeman by burglars. If Cahill killed himself, he staged the act with dramatic cunning, for in the church door was found a burglar’s jim my and the policeman’s body bore three stab wounds, as well as a bullet wound. A motive for the staging of a bur glary to cover a suicidal act is* seen by the police in the fact that if Cahill had been killed on duty his widow would have received, as is customary in such instances, nearly $20,000 in death bene fits. The members of the Cahill family still refuse to accept the theory, how ever, . that the policeman committed suicide. FLAGS AT HALF-MAST WHILE “NIAGARA” SAILS (By Associated Press.)

[ Dept. 19 Chicago | BEAUTIFUL St IS TO DEATH: JS INJURED Miss Bessie Lyon, *19 Years Old, Dies of Burns She Re ceived at Her Home on Wed nesday Afternoon Miss Bessie Lyon, nineteen years old, of 349 Capitol avenue, passed away Thursday night from burns she received Wednesday afternoon at her home, and her mother, Mrs. Lillie Lyon, is in a serious condition from burns sustained by herself when she attempted vainly to save the young woman. At the time of the accident Miss Lyon and her mother were alone in the family’s apartment on the second floor of the address given. Miss Lyon was burning some trash in the grate. For a moment she turned away from the flames, says her mother, and her skirt caught. Almost instantly she was en veloped in fire. Mrs. Lyon attempted to beat it out with her bare hands, but could accomplish nothing, and her daughter, screaming, ran downstairs, where B. Clein, whose family occupies the lower portion of the residence, caught her and smothered the fire with rugs and quilts. Miss Lyon was removed to the Geor gian hospital, four blocks away, and her burns were dressed at once. In spite of the best of attention, she sank gradually. At 1 o’clock Thursday aft ernoon she became unconscious. At 9:30 o’clock Thursday evening she died. Miss Lyon was the daughter of Mr. Robert L. Lyon, superintendent of the Austell building. A sister, Miss Annie Lee Lyon, and one brother, Robert L. Lyon, Jr., survive her, in addition to her parents. She had attended, the pub lic schools of the city, being a pupil most recently at Marietta Street school. But for some time past she had been studying music with particular atten tion to vocal culture. She was a mem ber of the Capitol Avenue Baptist Sun day school. The body will be sent to Ball Ground, Ga., Saturday for funeral and interment, and a deputy, to make bond later in the evening. The case will be brought before the next grand jury. MR. JACKSON’S STATEMENT. Saturday evening Mr. Jackson tele phoned The Journal to state that sev eral gentlemen, who were then in his office, agreed that it would be at mat ter of impossibility for him to have made such an attempt as is charged to him, in his office. More than half of the door is trans parent, he says, and passers-by can easiyl see in the office. If I were knave enough” says Mr. Jackson, “ to attempt this thing of which they faalsely accused me, cer tainly I would not be fool enough to attempt it here.’’ Mr. Jackson states that the charge against him is an effort to injure his work as the leader and organizer of the Juvenile Protective association, which he says now has spread to six different states. “No one knows anything about what occurred in the office except the girl and myself,” he said. “It is a question of which one of us is telling the truth. Many of the best citizens of Atlanta know me and know that I am incapable of such a thing as is charged so falsely to me.” Mr. J ckson stated that he had been advised that the charge might be dropped before it reached the grand jury. He says that he hopes that It will not be dropped as he wants it sifted to the bottom and the truth shown. LAMAR SAYS HE’S “BUSY;” CAN’T GO TO NEW YORK (By Associated Press.)

Criticise Refusal to Send American Fleet PEKING, July 28.—The refusal of Rear Admiral Reginald of the Nichol son, commander-in-chief of the Amer ican Asiatic fleet, to send* American ma rines to Ku-Ling is generally criticised in non-military circles here, although the German and British admirals are reported to agree with Admiral Nich olson. An American guard wasat flrstagreed agreed upon by the British, German and American legations owing to Chi neses suspicions as to the disinterest edness of other nationalities. Ku-Ling is a high mountain town near Kiu-Kiang, where thousands of foreigners, mostly British and Ameri can women and children, take refug6 from the summer heat and diseases of central China. The only danger at Ku-Ling arises seemingly from outlaws and dispersed soldiers attempting to loot. The ad miral has offered to escort the foreign ers to the river, but refuses to detach a small guard. $3.50 Recipe Free For Weak Men Send Name and Address Today—You Can Have It Free and , Be Strong and Vig orous.

FEW CHALLENGES FOR MULHALL STATEMENTS Lobbyist's Story Will Stand Practically Without Cross- Examination by Democrats (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, July 28.—Martin M. Mulhall’s story of his lobbying activi ties for the National Association of Manufacturers, as unfolded before the senate lobby committee, is to be allowed to stand practically without cross- questioning from Democratic members of the committee. Senators Nelson and Cummins, who yesterday began a severe questioning of the witness upon many of his statements, probably will continue to demand more detailed statements upon his letters as they are introduced in the record, but the Democratic members, Senators Over man, Reed and Walsh, expect to let the Mulhall story stand principally upon the evidence presented in the 6,000 or more letters. Mulhall will go befort the house lob by committee early next week and it is expected that there he will be sub jected to a rigid examination as to the charges contained in his mass of corre spondence, that members of the house were his close associates in political campaign work, and in efforts to head off labor legislation. The senate com mittee also has indicated that it will not permit a general cross-examination of Mulhall by attorneys or officers of the manufacturers and these officials will attempt to make Mulhall defend his statements before the house com mittee next week. CLAPP URGES AMENDMENT TOALDRICH-VREELANDLAW (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, July 28.—Senator Clapp today proposed an amendment to the Aldrich-Vreeland law to permit emergency currency Issued under it to circulate at the same tax for three months as it now would circulate for one. “There is a growing feeling,” said he. explaining his argument, “thAt it would be unwise to have general cur rency revision at this special session. Bankers have advised me that if this rate of tax can be ex-tt nded to cover three months, the currency available would suffice to meet any emergency at this time.” EBfll. COMER LEADING A MOB Sensational Climax of Bitter Alabama Campaign for Governor ^Special Dispatch tr The Journal.) MONTGOMERY, Ala., July 28.— Charging that B. B. Comer, former gov ernor of Alabama and candidate for the office again, led a mob in Calhoun county in the late eighties for the pur pose of lynching two men, Samuel P. Kennedy, campaign manager for Charles Henderson, has issued a reply to Comer’s statement, in an address at Attalla Thursday, that another gas steal would come about if Kennedy were named president of the railroad com mission. Mr. Kennedy’s answer was based on newspaper reports of Comer's address which contained this statement: “Mr. Comer said that if Mr. Henderson were elected governor Sam Kennedy would be appointed president of the railroad commission. ‘Think of it! Kennedy and McCord. We would have Alamo gas steal before you could say ‘scat.’ ” The campaign manager declared he didn’t know why Mr. Comer had directed an attack at him. “Just what Mr. Comer meant by such a statement can only be accounted for by his maddened condition brought about by the defeat that is staring him in the face.” Ending the reply, Mr. Kennedy declar ed that his good name was all he had and he proposed to protect it. “I did not have the opportunity or the inclina tion to lay a foundation for a fortune by selling whiskey to ‘niggers’ as did this assassin of character,” said the Henderson manager. In the interview Mr. Kennedy asked why he should be mentioned in connec tion with the Alamo gas matter, which caused a sensation in Alabama two years ago when efforts were made to prove that certain state officials were given shares of stock in the gas com pany in exchange for their influence in certain deals. “Why should I be menitoned in con nection with the Alamo gas matter?” asked Kennedy. “Surely not because I am Henderson’s campaign manager. What else, however, can be expected from a mob leader—it is a well known fact, or if it is not well known, I will now try to make it known, that this same ex-governor did himself lead a mob in Calhoun county in the late eighties for the purpose of lynching two men, neither of whom ever was tried or convicted for the offense for which he wanted to lynch them—what can be expected from such an unbalanc- eu personality? “When I ran for associate commis sioner thre e years ago he said he would support me, I don’t know whether he did or not—two of his brothers did, I know, for the fact that they told me they would. I am not now running for office and this attack on me by in nuendo is uncalled for and no man of integrity or of a temperament that would fit him to hold any office would have been guilty of such an offense.” MATTIF0RD RELEASED BY POLICE OF BOSTON Arersted Friday in Boston, John D. Mattiford, formerly of Atlanta, was re leased by the Boston police Friday night. John A. Barwick, the complain ing witness in the indictment against Mattiford alleging that he assisted in the kidnaping of Mr. Barwick’s two children when he eloped with Mrs. Barwick some months ago, will not prosecute Mattiford.
