Mexican President's Denial
Through Minister Gamboa
to Secretary Bryan
BY RALPH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.—President
Wilson was in his office at an early
hour this morning. His first caller was
Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, who
was chairman of the senate committee
on -oreign relations when the Republic
ans controlled the senate. Lodge was
accompanied by Senator Stone, of Mls-
«o .i, who ranks next to the chairman
vf caat committee.
Lodge and Stone had a brief inter
view with the-president and then de-
patred .without revealing the object of
their visit.
In the meantime the White House,
while giving out the denials of the
threatening attitude of the Huerta gov
ernment of Mexico, acknowledged that
there was a “situation” pending in
Mexico, and intimated that the day
might bring on some decisive informa
tion. Representatives of newspapers
were informed that the White House
would keep in touch with them all day.
The president, it was stated, w T as con
sidering the advisability of making
public today the text of instructions to
John Lind when he was sent to Mexi
co. But it was also intimated that ac
tive negotiations were proceeding, and
toe next step by this government
might hinge on the result of such nego
tiations.
Tne situation in Washington was
complicated by the intemperate atti
tude of the local press. Both Wash
ington morning papers carried strong
■«w* war dispatches and stronger Washing-
flg*jton war articles. One paper printed a
" heading running across the top of the
page making the flat stataement
the United States and Mexico
'‘'-were now on a war footing. The oth-
- f -er one was nearly as flagrant. The
result naturally was exci ement among
| public men. While Lodge and Stone
were with the president, senators and
members began to gather in the presi-
- ^dent's outer office, seeking information
to the situation, and to all of them
f;5 Secretary Tumulty read the denial of
r "Charge 0‘Shaughnessy and the dispatch
from Jobra Lind, telling of his long and
cordial interview with the Mexican
It % president.
H • Among those who called were Oscar
W. Underwood, Democrat floor leader of
the house and A. Mitchell Palmer, of
Pennsylvania, one of the president’s
confidential advisers in the house. They
were followed in rapid succession by
others and each, upon being informed
F situation, hurried to the capitol to re-
1 in general terms of the nature of the
peat what he had learned to his col-
Uu^ieagues.

Southern Railway Sends Spe
cial "Dairy Instruction Car”
to Atlanta
Educatoinal meetings of interetst to
both dairymen who supply Atlanta peo
ple with milk and butter and to At
lanta people who depend on local dairies,
will be conducted by expert dairymen
on the Southern railway’s special “dairy
instruction car” Thursday and Friday
at the Terminal station, where the car
will be parked on Southern .railway
tracks at the end of Mitchell street
viaduct at Elliot street.
The car is being sent to Atlanta by
the Southern railway for the purpose
of bettering dairying methods in this
section. It is the same car which tour
ed Georgia last year and which has
visited hundreds . of communities
throughout the southeast. The car is
fitted out like a model farm dairy,
w r ith all the latest machinery and ap
paratus necessary to the small farm
dairy, and will be in charge of Dr. C.
M. Morgan, head of the dairy division
of the Southern railway, who will be
assisted in conducting the lectures and
demonstrations by Dr. Peter F. Bahn-
sen, state veterinarian, and dairy ex
perts from the Georgia College of Agri
culture and the state and federal de
partments of agriculture.
Thursday there will be special meet
ings from 10 a. m. to 1 p. m. and from
2 to 4:30 p. m. for dairymen and farm
ers, and on Friday the same hours
will be devoted to special meetings for
consumers of milk. The car is cooled
and made comfortable with electric fans
and seats are provided for the lectures
and demonstrations. Through the ad
vice of these experts and practical
demonstrations of the most modern and
scientific methods, the Southern rail
way hopes to stimulate interest in
dairying and to be of practical aid to
those supplying Atlanta people with
dairy products. The meetings Friday
will enable consumers to tell the dif
ference between good and bad milk and
butter so that they will be in position
to demand a higher grade product when
the milk man comes around. Atlanta
women are especially invited to the
meetings.

FIVE CANDIDATES FDD
T
Underwood, Clayton, Heflin,
Abercrombie and Hobson
Prominently Mentioned
(BY RALPH SMITH.)
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 21.—Five
Alabama congressmen are “prominently
mentioned” as possible candidates for
the Upited States senate., They are Ma
jority Leader Oscar W. Underwood, au
thor of the tariff bill and chairman of
the ways and means committee; Henry
D. Clayton, of Eufaula, chairman of the
judiciary committee, who was oppointed
by Governor O’Noil to fill Senator John
ston’s unexpired term; J. Thomas Heflin,
of LaFayette, chairman of the industrial
arts and exposition committee: John W.
Abercrombie, of Tuscaloosa, congress
man-at-large; and Richiriond Peorson
Hobson, ardent equal suffragist and hero
of the Merrimac.
It is regarded a practically certain that
three of these congressmen—Clayton,
Heflin and Hobson—will be in the race,
unless Leader Underwood tokes a notion
to become a candidate. In that event, it
is believed that Clayton and Heflin might
decide to leave the race to Underwood
and Hobson. The latter has been run
ning for several months, and was pre
paring to fight it out with the late Seno-
tor Johnston.
WILL UNDERWOOD RUN?
Interest in Washington centers in the
possible candidacy of Mr. Underwood. Re
ports from Alabama are that he can win
with comparative ease. But will he run?
That is the question. Some of his friends
say that he has an ambition to ‘‘round
out his public career” with a term or
two in the United States senate, and that
he is considering seriously the situation.
Others say that it would be the height
of folly for Mr. Underwood to end his
career in the house at this time, even
though he could have a senator’s seat for
the osking.
As leader of the house, Mr. Underwood
is unquestlonbly one of the most, if not
the most, influential man in the govern
ment, next to the president himself. He
overshadows Speaker Clark, while neith
er Senator Kern, Democratic leader, nor
Senator Simmons, finance committee
chairman, wield nearly so much influence
in legislative matters. If he gives up
this position to enter the senate, then he
will lose much of his prestige and influ
ence. He will go to the foot of the list
in the senate, and years will elapse be
fore he will be anything tike as impor
tant to display his talents as a leader.
His strong personality would be overshad
owed by other personalities quite as
strong. His life study—the- tariff—would
be of little use to him, because it would
be next to impossible for him to land a
place on the tariff making committee-
financial. Of course his ability would
command recognition, and his sayings
and doings would attract attention, but
he would find older and more experienced
senotors leading in the debates and shap
ing legislation.
As leader of the house. Mr. Underwood
is “more nearly in line for a presidential
nomination,” his friends say, “than he
would be occupying an obscure place in
the United States senate.” And his
friends have sized things up just about
right, it seems to observant persons. Mr.
Underwood can be of more service to
the party and better advance his oWn in
terest by remaining -Jn the house than he
can by “rounding out a career in the
senate.
CLAYTpN AND HEFLIN.
With Mr. Underwood out of the way,
it is certain that Judge Clayton will
be a candidate. It is almost as certain
that Representative Heflin will enter the
race also. Dr. Abercrombie’s candidacy
is predicated upon what the legislature
does with reference to redistricting the
state. He is congressman-at-large just
now. If the legislature redistricts, he
will be out of a job, and will run for the
senate. He has a state-wide organiza
tion, and would be a factor, it is be
lieved.
Hobson, “the hero, the suffragist, the
prohibitionist,” is the man that the win
ner must beat, according to advices in
Washington. Judge Clayton and his
friends think he is the man to turn the
trick. The friends of Mr. Heflin insist
that he is the man. The friends of both
Clayton and Heflin fear that if both run,
Hobson may have an advantage that
will be hard to overcome.
Heflin is a better speaker than Clay
ton, and his friends believe Is better
able to handle Hobson on the stump
than any other man in Alabama. Heflin,
too, is a prohibitionist, but is not re
garded so extreme as Hobson, and,
‘therefore, less objectionable to a large
element of the liberals in Alabama.

SOUTH CAROLINA HAS
NO MONEY IN TREASURE
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
COLUMBIA, S. C., Aug. 21.—For the
first time in many years the state of
South Carolina has no money in the
treasury to pay the running expenses of
the government and. thousands or dollars
in claim have been held up. Unless ar
rangements are made for borrowing
money no state officials will draw any
salaries and the sta,te cannot pay out a
dollar until taxes come in.
The state has each year borrowed
money to meet running expenses and the
legislature put this in the hands of a
board composed of the governor, comp
troller general and state treasurer. The
state treasurer asked for a loan of $300,-
000 and the governor made arrange
ments with a local bank for this amount
until January 1 at 5 per cent. Six notes
of $50,000 each were signed by the gov
ernor and turned over to the treasurer
who, w’ith the comptroller general, sign
ed one this morning and presented it at
the) bank. Because these officials would
not borrow the full $300,000 and wanted
it in installments of $50,000 as needed
by the state, the bank declined to float
the loan and called off its offer.
State Treasurer Carter called the gov
ernor’s attention to the refusal of the
bank to loan the money in installments
of $50,000 each and said the bank denied
that they had made any such agree
ment with the governor and asked for
documentary proof. The governor re
plied to the treasurer that he had placed
in his hands along with the notes the
copy of the bank cashier’s letter con
taining the statement that the notes
would be floated as the state needed the
money. “On account of your glaring
misstatement I will have nothing fur
ther to do with the matter,” said the
governor to the treasurer.
The state treasurer claims he was not
consulted by the governor before the
contract for the loan was made. The
governor says he has done his duty and
signed the notes and that it is up to
the comptroller general and state treas-
urerfl Meanwhile the treasury is with
out funds and with the prospects of get
ting no money tieher in salaries or ex
penses for three months state officials
and those, dependent on money from the
treasury are in consternation.

Let
Adler
Sheriff of New Hampshire
Town Trailed Him Across
Border and Had Him Held
as a Fugitive
COATICOOK, Quebec, Aug. 19.—Har
ry K. Thaw is under arrest here. He
will be arraigned at Sherbrooke as a
fugitive from justice in the United
States and according to Canadian im
migration ^authorities at Ottawa will be
deported from Canada under the immi
gration regulations. v
The yule under which this action will
be taken provides that any person who,
within five years of his incarceration
in a penitentiary or insane asylum^ en
ters Canada, may be sent back as an
undesirable.
Thaw was arraigned this afternoon
and was remanded to Sherbrooke jail.
He will appear before Judge Mulvena*
extradition commissioner, probably to
morrow.
The police appeared to have no ques
tion as to the identity of their pris
oner. He refused to take seriously
their action in arresting him, declaring
that they had not the shadow of an
excuse for depriving him of his liberty,
as he had committed no crime.
Thaw was arrested by local officers
at the request of Sheriff B. H. Kel
sey, of Colebrook, N. H., who saw Thaw
on a train last night and later followed
him here in an automobile.
Though not knowing what they can
do w*ith their prisoner, his captors are
interested in the $500 reward which
has been offered for his apprehension
and they will hold him until his re
lease is ordered or other disposition
made of him by the government. Sher
iff Kelsey will get this reward.
Thaw freely admitted his identity
but would not .discuss his movements
since Sunday morning, except to say
that he took a train “east of Boston.”
He said taht he was making for the
coast and planned to sail for Europe.
He did not appear geratly disturbed
by his detention here, declaring that
as he had committed no crime he could
not be extradited.
In company with ..Jwo-men, one heavy
built and the other slight and botn
smooth shaven, Thaw, according to the
police, came over the Maine Central
from some point south of Colebrook,
N. H.,« last night. This branch of the
road extends to Portland, Me/
Thaw is held as a fugitive from jus
tice, while the police hold his two
companions on suspicion. All have re
tained counsel.
The^ police mad ethis statement:
“Harry K. Thaw was arrested at
Hermenegilde-Garford, oil a charge pre
ferred by the constable with the advice
and on information of B. H. Kelsey, dep
uty sheriff of Colebrook, N. H. Notice
has been sent of Thaw’s arrest to the
Matteawan asylum by Hector Verretti
king’s counsellor of Coaticook. Word
has been received from the Matteawan
authorities to hold the prisoner until
further instructions are sent them.”
Thaw’s two companions refused to
disclose their identity. Thaw will be
taken to Sherbrooks for araignment,
and thence to Montreal.
A statempnt given out by the chief of
police described the prisoner as thirty-
five years of age, of brown complexion
and stated that he spoke French with
a Parisian accent. The chief said the
prisoner at first denied he was Thaw.
Thaw’s Guardian Says
His Ward Is Not in Canada
PITTSBURG, Pa., Aug. 19.—"X am
pretty sure the man they have in Can
ada is not Harry Thaw,” declared Rog
er O’Mara, Thaw’s guardian, as he hung
up the receiver of along distance tele
phone. in his office here this morning.
“No, I have not heard from Thaw, but
I am convinced he is not in Canada.”
O’Mara ’refused io say on what he
based his opinion.
How Sheriff Trailed Man
Claiming to Be H, K, Thaw
COLEBROOK, N. H„ Aug. 19.—Harry
Thaw is reported under arrest at Coati
cook. province of Quebec.
The man under arrest passed through
here on a train last night and later
crossed the line into Canada. Deputy
Sheriff B. H. Kelsey, of this town, who
was on the train, says the man admit
ted that he was Thaw. Kelsey followed
the man to Coaticook, where he was ar
rested.
According to Kelsey, the man he be
lieves is Thaw was inquiring of others
on the train the location of the county
seat and some one directed him to the
sheriff, Kelsey, saying the latter could
tell him.
Kelsey looked at the man rather close
ly, which caused the other to remark:
“You don’t know who I am?”
“I could make a pretty good guess.
You are Thaw,” the sheriff replied.
The stranger thereupon admitted his
identity and added: “But you don’t
want me, you couldn’t harm me if you
wanted to.”
The two men then discussed the situ
ation briefly. At this station Kelsey left
the train, as did one of two men who
were accompanying the supposed Thaw.
Kelsey immediately obtained the as
sistance of two friends and with an au
tomobile they followed the train.
They learned , that the stranger and
his companion had left the train at
Riverside, where they were joined by the
other man, who, meanwhile, had obtain
ed an automobile, and together they
crossed the line into Canada, passing
through Barford to Coaticook. Kelsey
and his party followed and had the man
arrested near Coaticook.
Mother Awaits Son at
Pennsylvania Country Home
NEW YOfcK, Aug. 19.-—Mrs. Mary
Copeley Thaw quietly left her hotel in
New oYrk this morning and took a train
for Cresson, Pa., near Pittsburg, where
she will await further word from her
fugitive son Harry, who escaped from
the Matteawan asylum for the criminal
insane early Sunday morning.
As she departed she said she had had
no word from Thaw since the letter re
ceived yesterday, in which he said all
was well and promised to join her at
Cresson.
U, S, Authorities in Doubt
As to Thaw's Extradition
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—Harry K.
Thaw may be extradited from Canada
on a warrant charging bribery, but
there is no provision in any of the
Anglo-American treaties for extradition
on a charge of conspiracy, except as it
relates to conspiracy to mutiny on the
high seas. There is no provision for ex
tradition on the charge “fugitive from
justice.”
Those are the views of state depart
ment officials. In none of the treaties
is there a “hot pursuit” clause which
would permit the arrest of a fugitive
Wio got across the border just ahead
.of his captors. Such ^provision did
exist Ap. an old treaty with Mexico.

All Dalton Council
Can Do Is Meet and
Adjourn and "Cuss"
DALTON, Ga., Aug. 21.—The meeting
of city council last night came near re
sulting in an indignation meeting, when
the new charter amendment, as put
through by local legislators, came up for
discussion. The members were united in
the opinion that city council now had lit
tle authority other than the right to meet
and adjourn.
The Vsit’y fathers had drafted a charter
amendment which would have, if enacted
into a law, given that body supervision
over the police department, a matter
which caused no little friction during the
past year. Instead of having the meas
ure passed, however, the legislature put
through a substitute which almost com
pletely robbed council of what authority
that body already possessed.
With the police department and record
er’s court refusing to acknowledge that
council can manage affairs of those de
partments, the charter amendment also
has taken the management of the public
utilities, turning it over to the board of
wear and light commissioners. For a long
time, the school board has conducted the
school affairs without worrying council
with them.
As one member has expressed it, coun
cil can have garbage removed, look after
street cleaning, see that the grass is kept
cut in the parks and the public buildings
swept out daily.
Driver of Water
Wagon Arrested
As Blind Tiger
TIFTON, Ga., Aug. 21.-—When the
man on the water wagon gets to sell
ing liquor as a blind tiger, the town
that owns the water wagon is getting
up against it in keeping in line with
prohibition.
Last year a negro was arrested for
selling whisky and delivering it in one
of the city'carts, but Henry Wade, the
colored driver of the city sprinkling
cart, went him one better. Wade was
arrested Monday morning by Chief
Thrasher for blind tigering and using
the city sprinkling cart as the home for
his tiger.

Mo., and in the Wichita, Kan., district
werelittle better today than before the
first showers in weeks fell last Satur

Blacksmiths are working day and
night repairing farm implements gone

Nearly every farm is surrounded by
plowed fire guards, as a spark in the
dry grass and wheat stubble would
start a conflagration.

7m Gone," Says Note
From Hubby to Bride
ANNISTON, Ala., Aug. 21.—“I’m gone;
won’t ever come back.”
These words pinned to a piece of fur
niture and found by the bride of Reuben
Rowe, an express messenger, said at the
time to be a joke, are now believed to
have expressed a premeditated intention
on the part of Rowe, who has not been
seen at his home in Birmingham since
last Monday, when he presumably left for
his work.
According to information received here,
Mrs. Rowe says that her husband was in
the habit of taking with him only enough
money to defray his incidental expenses.
She kept the family purse and when he
had taken out the money he thought he
would need he would hand it back to her.
Monday, however, he is said to have put
the purse in his pocket when he left
home. 1

AFTER SUB’S FINANCES
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.—The treas
ury department today announced that it
would insist that contractors on pub
lic buildings hereafter must look after
the financial wants of their subcon

make proportional payments to sub
contractors.
This practice the. department proposes
to end and it will try out its new pol
icy in the erection of the new $500,000
federal building- at New Haven, Conn.
