THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 1, 1913, But the Question Agitating Democrats Is: Can He Pro duce Proof of Campaign to Depreciate Bonds?. BY BAX.FK SKITS. WASH’X'STON, July 31.—The cur rency situation today Is surcharged with acrimonious discussion, private and pub lic. Secretary McAdeo continues to be the target of bankers. Republicans, in surgents and bewildered Democrats. The suspicion that he acted without direct documentary proof in charging a con spiracy in New York to depress govern ment bonds will not down. Now the question is: How he is going to get away with it, without confounding the Issue of currency legislation? McAdoo is silent. He refused himself to the newspaper men who called at his office today, and it was said for -him that he would have nothing further to publish until he had had opportu- - nity to examine the pile of correspond ence which his statement of Monday night has inspired. REPUBLICANS EMBOLDENED. The failure of Mr. McAdoo to name names has emboldened the Republicans in their fight against currency legisla tion. They declare now that they will persist in their plan to prolong the tariff debate in order to stave off the Wilson brand of currency reform. They believe that they put the president in a hole when they caled on him for proof of the tariff lobby allegations. Against the suspicion that Mr. Mc Adoo acted on inf< nation' and belief, lather than on uuo ion and specific knowledge, is the as- -ion of friendly critics that he knows the devious ways of New York well enough to know what he is striking at. Tijey insist that he has sufficient acumen to appreciate the seriousness of his charges. WAS PRESIDENT WARNED? One question that has gone unanswer ed- is this: Did the president have any advance Information about McAdoo’s in tention to issue such a statement? None of the administration authorities have said a word by way of enforcing Mr. McAdoo’s allegation, and because of this there has been drawn an Inference that Mr. McAdoo acted solely upon his own responsibility. Senator Owen elaborated today upon his statement that the banks would be the first to try to manipulate the fed eral reserve board, if given control over it. The senator was asked by The Journal if he could cite any recent case where the big New York city banks, or their allies, would seem to have misused their discretionary powers for political or selfish purposes. SENATOR OWEN TALKS. "Cite specific instances?" the senator repeated. "No. I am not going to be diverted from my present purpose and work, nor do I propose to be drawn into further controversy with these banks or other banks. But I know the National City bank crowd and a lot of others in the same crew. I know of how they travel about the country, quietly at work with their publications, to create sentiment inimical to the banking and currency bill. Oh, you bet I know them, and I know them well. But I haven't the time to quarrel with them, for I’ve got a pret ty big think on my hands Just now. ' RAPS THE BANKS. “You’ve heard what I said in my state ment the other day. If the banks them selves were permitted to control the fed eral reserve board, the National City bank would head the list in its political activities to control the federal reserve board and would not be moved altogether by altruistic purposes. That’s clear enough, isn’t it? "And you’ve heard what the banks— particularly those political banks—have to say? Intimating that the federal re serve board would be left in the hands of ’dead ducks, politicians, old timber out for a Job.’ What right have they to, infer any such tiling? On what do they base such an assumption Why, the men who will compose that board will have control of over twenty-five million dollars; and these banks dare to say ‘po liticians.’ meaning wornout men, we are left to infer, will be chosen for such positions. That’s sheer Impudence— nothing less than damned impudence. “No,” he concluded, "I don’t want to cite specific instances. It’s not neces sary.” Whales and Sharks In Deadly Combat Off Long Island (By Associated Press.)

When questioned, Judge Glenn stated that he was employed Tuesday morning to defend Poole and had been busy throughout the day preparing the de fense. “I see no reason now why we should not be ready at least by Thurs day,” he said, “and I expect an acquittal for my client.” Hatfield, charged with murder, an nounced when taken before Judge Fite, that he was unable to employ counsel, and Judge Fite appointed Attorney W. E. Mann to defend him. Mann has been retained to defend the Nicodemus broth ers, charged with be^Vig implicated in the murder of Will Parrish.

EATONTON, Ga., July 81.—Rather a rare botanical specimen sent by a for mer resident of this county to rela tives here during its full bloom of tht past two weeks has attracted consider able attention, not only from lovers of rare plants, but lovers of the curious as well. The plant is known, or called by both of two names, the Bird of Par adise plant, and Moses and the Burn ing Brush, either of which seems fully appropriate. The bush is about eight feet tall with leaves of leguminous type, and the blooms are in clusters, yellow in color with several seemingly elongated pistils extending from within the bloom, bright red and making a very happy harmony of calors. The large clusters over the bush with these red pistils attract attention immedi ately to the plant and give it indeed the appearance of a burning bush. At the same time, the blooms taken separately make the Bird of Paradise plant seem especially appropriate as a name. Pods containing seed make tjie plant easy of propagation and quite a number of citizens have been eagerly securing these as souvenirs. ANOTHER REVOLUTION REPORTED IN PORTUGAL (By Associated Press.)

Harris, a stenographer, fifty years old, who was found dead from three bullet wounds In the head, near the summer home of Governor Fielder at the state encampment reservation yesterday, had been gambling with the militiamen en camped there and was probably ^ murder ed for the money he won, according to the theory entertained by the police. Harris was regarded as a “man of mys tery” at the encompment. Little was known of him except that he came from Danbury, Conn., about a month ago. Advices from Danbury say that he is not known there. The police are still confident that the small caliber revolver which Har ris clutched in his hand, had not been used by himself, the wounds being of a nature, it was said, that could not have been self-inflicted. He was evi dently murdered while walking from the state camp to his boarding house at Spring Lake, a distance of about two miles.

Jacksonville Mayor Says Whipping Post Would Allay Crime (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) JACKSONVILLE, Fla., July 31.— “What can be done to allay the wave of crime In this section and what can you suggest as a remedy?” was the question put to Mayor Swearingen this morning. “A whipping post.” The answer came quickly, and was backed up with a good argument by the mayor, who, through his experience as a police judge, is quite able to judge as to what would have the best effect upon the hardened criminal, who treats jail life as a luxury. The mayor in his advocacy of the whipping post states tha£ there is no reason why bodily punishment would not have its effect upon the criminal, at the present time, as it did in times of old. In his argument In favor of the pun ishment in public, he stated that in slavery days the negro was civilized by the whipping post, and seldom If ever was he brought up for a second time for the lash.
