BIG COTTON EXHIBIT
F0I1II
ims plan is
IS HELP
UNCLE SAM IS WORRIED
ill Be Largest Permanent
Exhibit of Its Kind in the
World
Plan* have been put jnder way by
the Atlanta chamber of commerce and
the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Ex
position association to establish here
the most complete permanent exhibition
of cotton and cotton products In the
world
It is proposed that the exhibit shall
.take up a whole floor of the new
chamber of commerce building and
that it shall be so complete and so In
teresting as to compel the attention of
all visitors to Atlanta.
Exhibitions of this kind have been
established temporarily at some of the
big world’s fairs, but there is no com
plete permanent one in any city of this
country. The plan was put under way
yesterday morning at a meeting of the
cotton products committee of the Mer
chants and Manufacturers’ Exposition
association held in the chamber of com
merce hall and attended by M R. Wil
kinson W M. Hutch nson. W. H.
Schroder and H. E. Watkins, who repre
sented F. P. McBurney Present also j
at the mee'ing were P D. McCarley,
vice president of the Coton Seed Crush- j
ers’ association of Georgia; A. A. Fry- j
erson.' secretary, and E. P. Chi vers,
chairman of the publicity bureau of the
samp association. W. J. White and W\
H. Pinson were also present.
As the proco*al to devote the whole
jf one floor will necessitate some slight
changes in the plan for remodeling the
chamber of commerce building it is de
sired to push all arrangements to an
early conclusion Wh n established
along the lines suggested, this exhibit
from a commercial and educational
standpoint will be one of the most in
teresting things In the south.
It will begin by showing growing cot- !
ton plants, and soil, fertilizer and oth- j
er things that enter into the planting
and growth of cotton will be illustrated
and explained. Then each product and
by-product of cotton will be taaen up
and shown through all Its stages. The
co. on lint will be shown as it goes
through various changes in a big cotton
mill and the prices® s explained. Over
fifty different kinds of cotton cloth
and cotton products will be shown.
The cotton seed will be taken up sep- j
ar* ely the same as the lint and all of
Its different products will be illus
trated. including hulls, meal, crude oil,
fine oil. cooking preparations, soaps,
etc.
Any man, W' man or child who spends
an hour or two in this exhibit will come
out learning more practically about
what cotton means than they could •
learn from a year’s s*udy. of books.
It is the idea to make the exhibit the
object of special interest to all visi
tors and to throw it open to all con
ventions which come to the city. It is
hoped to have the exhibit ready to be
opened soon after the chamber of com
merce moves into its new quarters on
January l.

BULGARIA MAKES BIG
DEMANDS AT PEACE MET
BUCHAREST. Rumania, Aug 4.—
Bulgaria's counter proposal presented
at the Balkan peace conference here
today is regarded as constituting her
maximum demands, and. consequently,
their abatement to some extent is con
sidered certain.
Peace will be signed, according to
the opinion expressed in diplomatic cir
cles, on the basis that points, on which
an agreement cannot be reached, shall
be reserved for decision by the great
powers.
The Bulgarian proposals stipulate
that the frontier line should give Bul
garia possession of the towns of Kot-
chana, Istip, Strumitza, Seres and Ka-
vala.
Bulgaria declined to recognize the
allies’ claim for an indemnity or to
enter into any negotiations concerning
that subject.
BUMPER CROP EXPECTED
AROUND BARNESVILLE
►(Special- Dispatch to The Journal.)
BARNESVILLE. Ga., Aug.-4.—Not in
years have the crops of cotton and corn
In this Immediate section been so
promising at this season as for this
year. During the past three weeks
every possible progress has been made
and farmers are highly elated. If con
ditions continue favorable for the next
few weeks the finest harvest will be
gathered that has been known for
many years.
This applies to the territory immedi
ately around Barnesville. There are a

WASHINGTON, Aug 4.—The plan of
the Wilson administration to avert a
contraction of the currency in New York
and to facilitate the movement of the
crops in tne south and west, as an
nounced last night by Secretary of the
Treasury McAdoo, has met with instant
approval among senators and congress
men from the sections of the country
*.o be affected.
They regard it as an evidence of Pres
ident Wilson’s determination to combat
with all of the* resources at his com
mand any attempt on part of New York
bankers to contract the money market
at a time when the farmers of the
country most need it. They believe
that tne plan outlined by Mr. McAdoo
Will result in easy money in both the
south and the west, and they feel that
the farmers themselves will reap the
greatest and most direct benefits,
though it is equally certain that the
banks in southern and western cities
will share in the general good.
ATLANTA BANKS ON LIST.
John Skelton Williams, first assist
ant secretary of the treasury, speaking
for the department this morning. told
The Journal that tile $50,000,000 which It
is intended to transfer to souintrn and
western banks will be apportioned
among the agricultural states on a ba
sis of crop valuation, population and sur
plus and deposits of the national banks.
..e added that banss of Atlanta and Sa
vannah would be chosen by the treas-
uiy as distributig points for the big
government deposits
“While there are a number oi other
excellent cities in Georgia, it will be
impossible for the treasury department
to deal with over two cities in the dis
tribution of this fund,’’ said Mr. Wil
liams. “It is my idea that Atlanta and
Savannah will be selected as the Georgia
cities. The banks in those cities have
correspondents throughout the state
and have adequate fac.lilies for handling
the situation and taking care of the
smaller oanks in the country.”
CONFIDENT OF BANKS’ CO-OPERA
TION.
When asked if he believed the banks
in Georgia and elsewhere in the south
would avail themselves of the offer of
the treasury department. Assistant Sec
retary Williams waxed most enthusi
astic. tie said.
"I rtgard Secretary McAdoo’s propo
sition as the greatest tning for the
lax mers of the south that has been at
tempted by the iederal government in
hali a century I am entirely confi
dent that the southern bankers will
take ad\aniage of the offer, and that
tne movement of cotton in the southern
states will be greatly facilitated.”
Mr. Williams declared that, In his
judgment, the southern bankers who
avail themselves of the ofter will use
commercial paper and not 2 per cent
government bonus, as a basis of their
loans from the government. He declar
ed that usually at this period or the
year :he banks in the south have lots
of high class commercial paper and
that the treasury department would ac
cept this as collateral and not require
the banks to go into the markets to buy
2 per cent government bonds.
SOUTHERN COMMERCIAL PAPER.
“The southern banks have good com
mercial paper and it will be unnecessary
for them to buy bonds in order to ob
tain the money the treasury intends to
transfer as a means of moving the
crops,’’ said he.
Assistant Secretary Williams regret
ted the publication this morning of a
statement to the effect that the treas
ury department was acting under the
provisions of Aldrich-Vreel and emer
gency currency act. He stated that such
was not the case, and that the depart
ment proposed simply to transfer some
of the money in its vaults to the banker^
of the south and west.*
HOKE SMITH’S VIEWS.
Senator Koke Smitnh commended th*
McAdoo statement highly and declared
that the farmers of the south would
benefit greatly as a result of the policy
of the administration.
“I regard the statement of Secretary
McAdoo concerning the transfer of
money to southern and western banka
as indicative of a policy on the part
of President Wilson to use the re
sources at his command to block efforts
of New York banks to contract the
money market,” said Senator Smith. “It
is the first time in half a century ot
more that a president of the Unitea
States has had the courage to take su
decided a stand in the interest of all
the people as against the bankers. The
plan is one of the most reassuring and
confidence inspiring moves that the ad
ministration has made, and I feel con
fident that the cotton farmers of the
south will be among the first to appre
ciate it. It means that money will be
easy In the south this fall, and that
the cotton crop will be moved with ex
pedition.”
ADAMSON AND HARDWICK.
Congerssmen Adamson and Hard
wick declared that they had read Mr.
McAdoo’s statement with great pleas
ure. and felt that it was a wise move in
the right direction.
“I favor any move by the administra
tion that will make it easier for out
farmers to market and move their
crops.’’ said Mr. Adamson. “I believe
the plan of the treasury department will
accomplish this.”
”1 am in hearty sympathy with , tne
ans of the administration to help the
armers of the country,” said Mr. Hard-
ick. - “Mr. McAdoo’s statement is a
holesome and significant indication of
;e attitude of the administration. Its
peration means much to the farmers
Georgia and other southern states,
nd It should be commended.”

WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.—The sudden
and unexpected appearance in Vene
zuela of General Clrprlano Castro to
take personal command of the revolu
tionary forces, confronts the state de
partment with a grave problem.
Secertary Bryan declined today to say
what would be trie attitude of the
United States toward the presence of
the unwelcome exile in the land from
which he was banished five years ago.
The Taft administration not only
approved of Castro's exile from Vene
zuela but sought by every means, al
though without success, to prevent him
from landing in this country last win
ter.
Officials realize that Castro’s present
personal direction of the insurrection
will make the movement far more for
midable.
The cruiser Des Moines will leave
Brunswick, Ga., Monday for Laguaira,
expecting to reach that port Friday.
Henry F. Tennant, of the state depart
ment. who Is going to Caracas to take
charge of the legation pending the ap
pointment of a new minister, will leave
Washington tonight and will proceed to
Venezuela on the Des Moines.

HU TRIES TO
KILL EIGHT WITH AXE
Negro Attacks Family at
night as They Are
Asleep
'Snedal Dispatch to The Journal.)
CAIRO, Ga.. Aug. 4.—Several posses
this afternoon are scouring the country
for a negro, said to be Ed LeCont. a
farm hand, who entered the home of
George Bodiford, a well-known citizen
of Grady county, about midnight Fri
day, and attempted to murder the en
tire family of eight with an ax.
The assailant practically brained Mr.
and Mrs. Bodiford. They have not re
gained consciousness. «.nd their death
Is expected at any moment. Some of
the children, who recognized the assait
ant, have revived sufficiently to make
known his identity. The finding of his
shoes and ax further substantiates the
children’s statements.
LEAVES SHOES AND AX.
As the assailant fled he dropped hts
ax on the floor. His shoes were round
in the yard, supposedly where he had
hidden them before entering the house.
The shoes and ax have been Identified
by negress who claims to be the wife
of Ed LeCont.
A son of the negro has said that
there was some trouble several days
ago between Lecont and Mr Bodiford.
Four physicians are in attendance on
the Bodiford family. All are expected
to recover except Mr. and Mrs.
Bodiford.
The awakening of a little girl of 12
probably prevented the negro from kill
ing the entire family of eight. When
the child screamed the negro struck hei
with an ax. almost severing her nose
from her face.

Declares England's Only Rea
son for Not Entering Is Lo
cation of San Francisco
(By Associated Press.)
LONDON, Aug. 4.—An apparently in
spired statement in regard to the Brit
ish government’s non-participation in
the Panama-Pacific exposition In San
Francisco appears today in the West
minster Gazette, drawn forth by the
caustic comment cabled from America.
It earnestly avers that Great Britain’s
refusal to participate has no diplomatic
significance and is based purely on com
mercial grounds. The newspaper says;
“We do not mix up our diplomatic
negotiations and our business in the
way suggested. • * * Americans may
be easy in their minds that our refusal
on this occasion has no other reasons
behind it than those of expense and the
impossibility of getting together a wor
thy collection at a place so distant as
San Francisco. We hope and expect
that any diplomatic differences we have
with the American government about
the Panama canal wll! be settled long
before 1915, when the exposition is to
be held.”
The Pall Mall Gazette says there was
no occasion for an “explosion of tem
per” by Americans after the explanation
given by the British board of trade yes
terday. and continues:
“We must confess we learned of the
reluctance of our traders with some re
gret. At first sight it betokens lack of
Imagination and enterprise.”
The newspaper suggests that the ex
hibition might give British traders a
chance to make up leeway on the Ger
man “drummers” who are already busy
on the coast.
American Bacteria Are
Entirely Too Vigorous
For Ultra Violet Rays
WASHINGTON, Aug. 4.—Although the
ultra violet rays may sterilize water in
Europe, the vigorous bacteria in Ameri
can milk will not succumb to their in
fluences. This discovery has Just been
made by chemists of the department of
agriculture, following a series of experi
ments. The scientists found that while
the rays were efficacious in disposing of
much of the bacteria, many of the path-
egenic, or disease-producing, germs sur-
vi\ e.
The department chemists found it was
impossible to sterilize cpmpletely even
dirty milk bottles with the rays. Fur
ther inquiry as to the means adopted by
the European scientists In the use of the
rays probably will be made.

senate.
While the senate was In session a
sub-committee, composed of Senators

ferred with Governor John M. Slaton
in regard to the bill.
In the committee meeting, which was
an executive session, it was decided to

tions In common schools, high schools

impartial cut might be made of each.
HGW CUTS RANGED.

cut bill In the senate; that they would
be only too happy to change the bill
if the house would adopt some meas
ures Increasing the state's revenue, but
that if nothing was done the commit
tee would refuse to increase the ap
propriations beyond those provide4 In
the bill as cut.
APPEAL OF ANDERSON.
In speaking to the senate on the ap
propriations bill Senator Anderson said
in part as follows:
"The chair desires to ask the chair
man of the Appropriation committee to
have another meeting of his committee
during the day. The condition which
confronts us today is of such a serious
nature that those who form a part ot
the administration charged with c< nduct-
>ng the affairs of this state find it nec
essary to call the attention of the sen
ate to the gravity and seriousness of
the situation The governor of the
state, the president of the senate, the
chairman of the finance and the chair
man of the appropriation committee of
the senate, the speaker of the house,
the chairman of the ways and means
committee of the house and the chairman
of the appropriation committee of the
house are those who form the state
administration. • which Is charged with
the duty of handling the state’s busi
ness.
"'The house has sent to the senate an
appropriation bill carrying $280,000 in
excess of the anticipated revenues of
the state, based upon the expectation
of preesnt values being maintained.
“In the year 1910 there was a balance
in the state treasury of $81,965. The
appropriations for the year 1911 were
$227,149 in excess of the anticipated
revenue.
"Deducting from the appropriations
for the year 1911, this $81,966 left a
deficit of $145,183 for that year.
"The excess of appropriations for the
year 1912 over the anticipated revenues
was $427,000.
“The excess or appropriations for the
year 1913 over the anticipated revenues
was $349,000, making a total excess for
these three years of $921,188.
"The bill that has been sent to * you
carries an excess of $281),000 over the an
ticipated revenues, and, if passed, will
run the deficit up to $1,201,188.
“I am sure It Is only necessary to
bring these facts to your attention, to
make you realize the gravity of the sit
uation which confronts you and that
this senate has only one means to as
sist the state. This senate is not allow
ed to originate appropriations, neither Me
it allowed to originate measures for
raising revenue. The only thing which
the senate can do, and the only function
which the senate can perform under our
constitution would be to Interpose by
its veto between the action of the house
and the bankruptcy of the state, and It
Is the function of the senate to keep the
appropriations within the revenues ol
the state. You are here to see to It that
no appropriation bill passes your body
so excessive or so improper as to
necessitate an executive veto.
"I think that every member of this
senate Is aware of the responsibility
and duty in this crisis that rests upon
him. and I am sure that it is only
necessary for me to call your attention
to these facts to Insure your discharging
promptly and fearless the duties of your
position."

II
Treasury Department Doesn’t
Want Farmers Overcharged
Under McAdoo Plan
(By Asioc’ated Frau.)
WASHINGTON. Aug. The $50,000,-
000 deposit of government funds about
to be made will be placed In banka of
the large cities In the agricultural re
gions ot tne south and west upon the
condition and expectation, said treasury
officials today, that these banks will
distribute the money to the country
banks at reasonable rates of interest.
While the treasury department will not
attempt to fix the rate of Interest, be
cause it has no such power, It will
Insist upon equitable treatment so that
the money will be available for the
marketing and movement of crops at
reasonable rates.
New Orleans and Atlanta will be
among those to receive a substantial
share of the $50,000,000 for distribution
in the south. Large deposits will be
made In Chicago and St Louis.
Assistant Secretary Williams said
it is necessary for the government to
place the money in the large channels
because it would be Impracticable to
pass upon the quality of commercial pa
per as security If the deposits were
scattered Indiscriminately among a
great number of country banka.
