THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 1913. 3 Senator Clark of Wyoming De clares Something Else Must Be Done to Guarantee Ade quate Protection n (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Aug-. 7.—President Wilson's action in sending former Gov ernor jonn jLHnd to Mexico as a special emissary in the present situation was attacked in the senate today by Sen ator Clark, of Wyoming, who declared “something else must me done by the administration to guarantee adequate protection to Americans.” Senator Clark presented a resolution for an immediate investigation by the senate foreign relations committee of the condition of American citizens and American property in Mexico. “This resolution is not introduced in a spirit of hostility to the administra tion or of criticism of the foreign rela tions committee.” declared the senator. “But conditions are growing steadily worse in Mexico. Now we learn that Governor Lind has been sent there by President Wilson. LIND TRIP INSIGNIFICANT. “That does not satisfy. Mr. Lind does not go as the official representative of the United States. He does not go as an ambassador cloaked with authority to represent the United States. He cannot be appealed to by American citizens for protection. Some other steps are neces sary to give to Americans and American property the protection they need and are demanding." Senator Sheppard, of Texas, presented a summary of the strength o fthe con stitutionalists’ forces in Mexico. The report showed the constitutionalists number bteween BO.000 and 80,000 and that they are in possession of far more than half of Mexico. AMERICANS IN DANGER. "We are unable to get exact and defi nite information.” replied Senator Clark, “about conditions in Mexico. Evidence still continues, however, to show that American property is being destroyed every day, that American citizenship is being dishonored, and even that officers of the American government are being shot dwn.” Today’s official dispatches from Mexico contained no information of the five American officials to the Madero Lumber company, who are believed In El Paso to have been taken prisoners in Chin- buahua. Inquiries are being made. "REBEL” VIEWS. Colonel Euardo Hay, chief of staff of the Constitutionalist forces in Sonora, jfcave to the senate foreign relations com mittee today a detailed account of his views on conditions in . texico. The Constitutionalist movement, he declared, controlled at least two-thirds of Mexico. Though he made no recommendations, Colonel Hay insisted that intervention by the United States would make things worse and declared impossible any medi- ation which recognized the government •of Huerta. His idea of the solution of the situation was to lift the embargo on arms so that the Constitutionalists could carry on a more active campaign. Then, he declared, troubles in Mexico soon would be settled. Huerta Won’t Treat With Lind on Mexic Affairs (By Associated Press.) MEXICO CITY, Aug. 7.—President Huerta last night reiterated the declara tion of his policy of "hands off" in the reply to a question as to what would be bis attitude in case an offer of media tion should be made by the United States through John Lind who is coming here as the personal representative of President Wilson to act as adviser to the American embassy. “I have said publicly,” President Huerta declared, "that I will not accept mediation or intervention of any kind, because national dignity and honor do not exact it. I have declared also that I will not treat with the rebels, and much less will I do so if the Insinuation that I do involves a flagrant violation of our sovereignty. “The question of dignity admits of no transactions and the present struggle should be conducted implacably until the national aspirations are satisfied. All should be joined in the bonds of peace, rejecting all Suggestions of a violation of sovereignty and any insult that may be offered to our national dignity.” That any suggestion by Mr. Lind or any other foreigner that President Huer ta shall resign in favor of a provisional president, or that a compromise be ef fected with the rebels, will be regarded as unfriendly interference and resented by the government, was the comment of one man high in official life today. Lind Does Not Want Ambassador's Place (By Associated Press.; NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 7.—John Lind, President Wilson's personal representa tive going to Mexico, said here today that he would not under any circum stances accept the ambassadorship to Mexico at any time. Mr. Lind arrived today and left at 11:30 o’clock this morning for Galveston, where he will board the battleship New Hampshire to morrow. Mr. Lind said he entered into the work of personal representative of the presi dent with pleasure but even after he had accomplished what he expected to in the southern republic he would not accept a permanent post in that country. He re fused to discuss any of the recent state ments of President Huerta of Mexico. REORSIH TOWNS WIN LOWER FREIGHT RATES Carrollton, LaGrange and Vi enna Benefit by Commerce jopjO uojssiluluoo (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) WASHINGTON, Aug. 7.—*-The Inter state commerce commission on yester day decided in favor of the towns ol Carrollton, LaGrange ana Vierma, Ga., In their petitions for cheaper freight rates. It is estimated that the decision will mean a loss of $4,000,000 or more per year to the railroads, as it will prop ably result in a readjustment of rates throughout the south. 1 The commission finds that the arbi trary increase of 27 cents from At lanta to Carrollton, on shipments trom Louisville and the west, should be 16 cents. It finds that the arbitrary increase of 20 cents from Atlanta to Caroliton, on shipments from Baltimore and the east should be 12 cents. The commission also finds that com modify rates should be reduced. The rate on agricultural implements from Louisville and the west is cut from 4i to 43 cents, and from New Orleans and Memphis to Atlanta it is cut to 30 cents. On canned goods the rates from New Orleans and Memphis are cut to 46 cents for carload lots, and to 63 cents for less than canoad lots. As to other commodities, the com mission suggests guiding rates. It says all rates to Carrollton should be lined up in accordance with these, and in this connection coffee and cotton ties are some of the commodities mentioned. In the LaGrange case, the conunissioh decides that the rates uom Cincinnati should be on the same basis as the rates to Opelika, Ala. From other Ohio river crossings and from New Orleans and Memphis the rates on firstclass are not to exceed 10 cents, Instead of 36 cents as now. On commodity rates, LaGrange is placed on the same basis as Opelika. In the Vienna case, the rates to Vi enna are placed on an equality with Cordele, whereas the present Vienna rates are a combination on Cordele and Macon, whichever is the cheapest.

They I will get only their retired pay as offi cers and men of the regular army, ac cording to a decision today by the I comptroller of the treasury. The order affects many retired regulars, who also are members of the militia.

He did not decide that question, however. CONLEY'S WHOLE TESTIMONY BE ALLOWED TO STAY OF State Ready With Corroborating Witnesses, if Evidence Is Held to Be Admissable-Jim Conley Adds New and Sensa tional Feature to His Testimony, Declaring He Saw Frank Place Mary Phagan's Pocketbook in the Factory Safe Judge L. S. Roan, presiding at the trial of Leo M. Frank, super intendent of the National Pencil factory, who is on trial cnarged with the murder of Mary Phagan, Wednesday afternoon reversed nlmself in his ruling made Tuesday striking out portions of Jim Conley’s tes timony. The judge made his ruling Tuesday but withheld announcing it to the jury until Wednesday. His reversal means that Conley’s testimony that he acted in the capacity of a "lookout” for the accused superintendent on days prior to the day of the tragedy, ana also his testimony accusing Frank of perversion remains in the testimony it also means that Solicitor Dorsey will be allowed to present evidence corroborating the negro sweeper as to Frank’s attitude toward him and his conduct in the negro’s presence. CONLEY ADDS NEW F JNSATION. Jim Conley, who left the witness stand at 11:10, after sixteen hours of direct and cross examination, added sensational feature to his testi mony Wednesday by the declaration tha* he saw Frank take the mesh bag or pocket book carried by Mary Phag n from the desk in his office and place it in the safe. So far as the public knows the mesh bag has never been found. Over the protest of the attorneys ior the defense, Solicitor Dorsey managed to get before the jury that Frank tad refused to face his accuser Jim Conley when the detectives sought to arrange an interview at the tower. For the first time since the trial has been in progress applause broke out in the court room when Solicitor Dorsey after a dispute with counsel for the defense over testimony given by Detective Scott, was sus tained by the reading of the court stenographic notes. Dorsey had con tended that Scott testified that Frank told him on April 28th about Mrs. White’s having seen a negro near the foot of the stairs on the day of the tragedy. Although the defendant had given this information to the Pin kerton detectives on April 28, declared the/solicitor, it was May 7 before the state’s detectives knew about it. When the stenographer’s report of Scott’s testimony was read, sustaining the solicitor, applause broke forth in several parts of the court room at once. Those responsible for it were immediately ejected by the deputie. Dr. H. F. Harris is expected to take the stand Wednesday afternoon and finish his testimony. He will probably be under cross-examination for an hour or more. The state expects to finish the presentation of its case Thursday. 6LEASE WANTS ZACHRY I!

The engine and fourteen car® went end on end into a yawning chasm for ty-five deep deep and extending thirty feet, where the Noonday creek had washed away its cement culvert and left the gap. Into this hole th© cars piled one on top of the other, making a mass of debris that it will taie twenty- foui hours or more to clear up. The bodies of the four members of the train crew are being sought for Wednesday in the mass of wreckage, but as they were in the engine and the rest of the wreck is piled on top of them, the task is difficult. Th© only body found is that of the negro, Jack- son. He was riding on the engine pi lot, going a short distance from Noon day to his home. His body was found on the oposite side of the banh where the engine had nit the bank be fore falling to the bottom of the gap. Before the embankment of the cul vert gave way twenty feet of watei had backed up. But the gap was there before the train came along. This is shown by the fact that hay in some of the cars is not wet. There is about three feet of water In the wreckage now The accident occurred on the West ern and Atlantic railway over which the L. & N. runs. Owing to the fact that the rest of the train crew were on the rear end of the train they escaped injury.

The crew was made up at the railway division point at Et- awah. This is the main line of the Western and Atlantic. ,H9y Associated Press.)
