WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—Free raw
wool was agred to in the senate Monday
without a roll call. No objection was
made to*-ratification of the paragraph,
though Republican senators will later
demand roll calls on pending substitutes
for the woolen schedule when ttfe bill
leaves the committee of the whole.
The finance committee amendment
providing that free wool should not be
come operative until December 1, 1913,
also was agreed to.
The entire free list was approved
with the exception of works relating
to art..
Finance committee amendments to so
broaden the international internal rev
enue regulations on denatured alcohol
as to open the industry to farming com
munities will be presented to a Demo
cratic caucus next week.
Leaders believe the house and senate
will agree on disputed items within
two weeks after the senate passes the
bill.
Senator Kenyon’s amendment to au
tomatically free list products of a con
cern adjudged a monopoly by the courts
precipitated a prolonged debate and it
was referred to the finance committee.
A diversity of opinion among Repub
licans and Democrats developed.
Senator Cummins declared that nec
essity for free listing monopoly prod
ucts would disapper when the Sher
man law was amended to send offenders
to jail an^ when courts appointed re
ceivers to sell monopoly properties so
that guilty ones cpuld not continue to
profit.
“How can monopolies be ended when
the supreme court declares a combina
tion violates the law as it did in the
Union Pacific case, and the attorney
general goes around to devise a plan
with those interested to keep the mon
opoly alive?*' demanded Senator Bristow.
He added that it seemed to him that
in the Standard Oil, the Tobacco case
and the Union Pacific cases, the de
partment of justice had convinced to
continue their monopoly.
Bristow later explained he did not
charge the attorney general with design
edly seeking to annul the dissolution
but charged that the result of the at
torney general’s consultation with the
railroad interests had been to deprive
the public of any benefits from the dis
solution.
Girl Who Survived
Messma Disaster
Restored to Father
(By Associated Press.)
CHICAGO, Aug. 28.—Joe Andranco,
happier than he *has been for years, is
ir New York waiting the arrival today
from Italy, of his daughter, Tillie, who
until a few-weeks ago, he believed, was
lest in the disaster at Messina. It was
nine years ago that Joe kissed Tillie
goodby” and left her with her grand
parents in Messina. Then the earth
quake came and no trace of the girl
could be found. She was mourned as
dead.
But Andraco often dreamed that his
child was alive and two months ago
when he procured his naturalization pa
pers he told United States Commission
er Foote about his dreams. The com
missioner sent a letter to the consul
general at Genoa who located Tillie in
a city hospital there.
The consul general learned that Tillie
had been caught in some wreckage
and washed to a hillside by the tidal
wave at Messina. Ther eshe was found
three days later by Queen Helena, who
accompanied Red Cross nurses to the
scene of the catastrophe.

TO PROHIBIT CONGRESS
MEETING DURING SUMMER
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—The tedious
grind of a summer sessi'on of congress
in Washington heat has had its effect
on the new members of the house. Rep
resentative Thompson, of Illinois, a
Progressive, indicated this by introduc
ing a bill to prevent summer sessions.
He proposes that congress shall assem

of the long session it shall convene in

SHERBROOKE, Quebec, Aug. 28.—
New York state was ruled out of cour;
here today during a dramatic prelimi
nary skirmish with lawyers for Harry
K. Thaw, fighting deportation.
Superior Judge Globensky. hearing ar
guments of Thaw’s counsel on a motion
to discontinue a writ of habeas corpus,
absolutely refused to entertain the ob
jections of Hector Verret, representing
New York. This was greeted with a
wild outburst of cheering by a thousand
Canadian spectators. Thaw rising,
bowed in acknowledgement.
“Hooray for the British flag! Hoo
ray for Harry Thaw,” shrieked men and
women standing on chairs waving hand
kerchiefs, parasols and hats.
Thaw bowed three times, like a stage
star taking a curtain call before a sym
pathetic audience. His cheeks were
flushed, his big brown eyes shone but
he maintained his composure.
Men and women struggled forward
over chairs and benches to congratulate
the prisoner.
When the New Yorkers and their
Canadian lawyers got back their breath,
they assembled in their hotel. Mr. Je
rome called reporters aside and dictated
this statement:
“We, who represent here the state of
New Y'orl^ are entirely unwilling to
comment dii the scene that occurred in
one of his majesty’s courts today. The
relations between the bar of the United
States and the courts of the Dominion
of Canada are most friendly and cordial,
and we realize keenly the sense of hu
miliation experienced by our brethren
in Canada who are assisting us. Mr.
Jacobs, who is associated with us, is
present and we would prefer not to say
anything with reference to the occur
rence of the morning.’'
Mr. Jerome turned toward Mr. Jacobs
and the latter said:
“There is nothing I can say. I will
say, though, that this is the first in
stance to my knowledge where such an
outburst in any of our courts was not
followed by the immediate clearing of
the court.”

GRAND JURY PROPOSES
TO GET TAX DEFAULTERS
Butts County Tax Returns
Have Decreased Great
ly Since 1878
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
JACKSON, Ga., Aug. 28.—The grand
jury that has just adjourned made' some
pertinent recommendations as to tax
defaulters and the continued decrease
in the acreage of land.
It was shown that since 1878, when
about 124,000 acres of land was re
turned, there has^ been a decrease until
now the total number of acres returned
for taxation is about 112,000.
This year’s digest shows an increase
over the number of acres returned last
year, however, and the nice gain in tax
values in Butts this year was the sub
ject of comment by the grand jury.
The grand jury suggested that land
be returned to the tax receiver by lot
number.
WOULD STRETCH LAW ON
DISPATCHING MILITIA
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—More lib
eral interpretation of the constitutional
provision which in the past ha^ been
accepted as prohibiting the dispatch
of militia to foreign soil will be sought
in the coming conference between the
staff officers of the war department
and the officers of the militia of the
various states. Denial was made that
there was any significance in raising
the question at this times 1 a desire to
make the regular army and the militia
a more effective combination, it was
declared, prompted the department's
actions.
Military lawyers are said to be con
vinced that authority is given by the
constitution for the employment of
militia in foreign countries to “exe
cute the laws of the nation.” They
are not all agreed in this definition of
the fundamental law, and a debate is
expected.

GOMEZ DEMONSTRATES
HIS MILITARY STRENGTH
CARACAS. Aug. 28.—The parade with
which President Gomez demonstrated
his military strength at Maracay on
Saturday was an unusual spectacle. A
group of twenty political prisoners-rep
resenting the Castro revolution, were
marched into Maracay from Tapatapa
with 6,000 loyal soldiers as their es
cort. President Gomez hoped to show
by the demonstration how futile were
seditious plots.
Just outside the city the troops halt
ed the prisoners and with their guard
they slowly passed between a mile long
line of artillery. Arriving at the plaza
in front of General Gomez’s residence,
they were forced to stand for an hour
in the hot sun while the government
troops deployed past. President Gomez
looking on from a window of his resi

The prisoners included Simon Bello,
General Castro’s brother-in-law; Manual
Tores, tall and defiant, the natural son
of General Castro; Felix De La Rosa
Porez, a member of congress under Gen
eral Castro, and General Porfirio Sier-
ralts, a tall, grizzled Castro warrior.
COUNTERFEITERS AT WORK
‘ TRAILED BY GOVERNMENT
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—Two coun
terfeit $10 national bank notes have
made their appearance an dthe secret
service force of the government is hot
on the trail of the counterfeiters One
bill is accredited to the First National
bank of Chicago and the other purports
to have been issued by the Farmers
and Merchants National bank of Los
Angeles, Cal.
The treasury department in a state
ment issued today says: “The figures
in the bank and treasury numbers are
poorly foPrmed and out of alignment. The
lathe work is very good. The back of
the bil^s is a darker shade of^ green
thq,n the genuine. The paper feels thick
and harsh.”
The bills, the officials say, are form
ed of two pieces of paper between
which silk threads are distributed. The
officials add that “if better printed,
these bills could be very deceptive.”

tion by Which Sub-Commit
tee of Judiciary Committee
Takes Up Case
BY B Ala PH SMITH.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—The house
passed unanimously today the Clayton
resolution authorizing the judiciary
committee to investigate the official
conduct of Federal Judge Emory Speer,
of the south Georgia district. The ac
tion of the house marks the first direct
move in a proceeding that may result
in the impeac-hment of the well known
jurist.
The passage of the resolution follow
ed a short debate, during the course of
which Judge Clayton summarized the
charges against Speer, as contained in
the report of the special examiner of
the department of justice.
The consideration of the resolution
was heard by one of the largest crowds
that has visited the capitol this year.
The galleries were packed with persons,
who had been drawn to the capitol to
hear President Wilson’s massage on the
Mexican situation, and the Speer case
served to entertain them pending the
arrival of the president. After the
passage of the resolution. Judge Clayton
told The Journal correspondent that
owing to Judge Speer’s ill health at
this time, the judiciary committee will
not begin its formal examination of wit
nesses until later in the fall. This work
which begun, will be conducted by a
special subcommittee, and sessions will
be held probably at Macon, Savannah
Augusta, Albany and Valdosta.
“The committee will not delay con
sideration of this case, however,” said
Judge Clayton. “The report of the
department of justice will be considered
in detail, and the general scope of the
inquiry outlined so that there will be
no delay when the inquiry is finally
begun.”
JUDGE CALLAWAY ON HAND.
Judge Enoch Howard Callaway, of Au
gusta, reached Washington this morn
ing in the interest of Judge Emory
Speer, whose impeachment by congress
is threatened as a result of a sensa
tional report made by the department of
justice. Callaway expects to confer with
Chairman Henry D. Clayton, of the ju
diciary committee, concerning the charges
against Speer and the method of proced
ure to be followed in conducting the pre
liminary investigation. He will at
tempt to get a copy of the charges.
Judge Clayton declined to furnish
Callaway a copy of tne examiner’s re
port, and referred him to the summary
he (Clayton) gave jthe house.
“I regret exceedingly that Republican
Leader Mann objected to the considera
tion of the Clayton resolution yester
day,” said Callaway. “As I understood
it, nothing can be done until the house
formally authorized -^n investigation,
and as a friend of Judge Speer I think
i< important that this authority be
conferred immediately.”
Callaway expressed satisfaction at
learning that out of deference to the
wishes of Judge Speer the taking of
testimony in the case will not be begun
until after a frost.
“Judge Speer’s health at this time
is such that it would prove a great
hardship if he were compelled to enter
upon the investigation,” said Callaway.
While Callaway has not been formally
retained by Judge Speer as counsel in
the threatened impeachment proceed
ings, his appearance in Washington is
regarded as indicating that he will rep
resent the jurist in the preliminary in
vestigation and subsequently if im
peachment is ordered by the house.
It is understood that Judge Andrew
Cobb, of Athens, will be associated with
Callaway in the defense of Speer, and it
is believed possible that Orville Park
and George S. Jones, of Macon, may be
also retained. They represented Speer
in the contempt proceedings against W.
A. Huff.

SULZER BARES HIS
TROUBLES TO O’NEAL
"The Grafters Are Hounding
Me," He Writes, "but They
Cannot Hurt Me"
(Special Dispatch to The Journal.)
MONTGOMERY, Aug. 28.—Governor
Sulzer, of New York, in a measure, has
laid bare his troubles to Governor Em
met O’Neal, in a letter to Alabama’s
chief executive. The letter was in an
swer to a communication sent to the
New York governor inviting him to at
tend the governor’s conference.
In his letter of invitation Governor
O’Neal expressed his sympathy for
Governor Sulzer in the serious trouble
he is now having with the New York
legislature and the Tammany Hall
forces and expressed the hope that
tne matter might be amicably aujusted.
.Governor Sulzer’s reply to Governor
u Neal’s letter was a lengthy one and
he took occasion to deny the cnarges
made against him by .ooss” Murphy
and other Tammany leaders and de
clared that he has no fear of the ulti
mate result in his struggle against the
torces that are trying to down him.
Governor S^zer wrote that he is be
set with th* greatest difficulties; that
his enemies are seeking to destroy him
for political reasons only, but “they
will not, in the last analysis,” hurt
him.
“You have no conception of the ob
stacles in my way,” wiote Governor
Sulzer. ‘^either have you any idea
ox the difneulties that beset me. Oft
en I am sick at heart; but then words
of assurance like yours come to hand
and I take renewed hope to go forward
with determination, come what may.
“When the political boss found out
that h,e could not control me and make
me a rubber stamp, he did everything
in his power to destroy me politically.
However, I have no fear of the ulti
mate result. The truth will prevail
and right makes might. In the future,
as in the past, you and alk my friends
can rely on me to do my duty aS I see
the right and* God gives me the light
regardless of personal consequences.
* x.he grafters are hounding me. Mr.
Murphy and his hirelings are traduc
ing me and trying in every conceivable
way to get mud to throw at me. How
ever, I can assure you there is little
or nothing in the charges made against
me. Most of the stuff Murphy and his
agents put in the newspapers about me
is baseless and pure fabrication. They
know this and they know it will not
in the last analysis hurt me; but they
also know it disconcerts me and wor
ries Mrs. Sulzer.
“When Boss Murphy told me he
would destroy me if I did not do his
bidding, I defied him to do his worst,,
and declared I would continue to do my
best. No matter what comes of me,
the fight for good government will go
on, and ultimately will triumph. With
the aid of the decent people of the
state I sjiall go forward. I cannot do
otherwise.”
Pity The Mailman!
He is Overworked
Picking up Money
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 28.—Picking up
loose meney has grown to be such a
hardship for the overworked rural free
delivery carrier that the postoffice de
partment today issued an order warning
reckless citizens against leaving loose
coins lying around. Hereafter coins must
be tied in bundles or Inclosed in en
velopes whenever the patron of a rural
route wants stamps from a carrier and
leaves the necessary amount in the
wayside box.
“The attention of postmasters at ru
ral delivery offices and of rural car
riers.” says Fourth Assistant Postmas
ter General Blakelee, “is again directed
to the fact that rural carriers are not
required to collect loose coins from ru
ral mail boxes.
“Patrons should inclose coins in an
envelope, Wrap them securely . in paper
or deposit them in a coin holding recep
tacle so they can be easily and quickly
taken from boxes and carriers will be
required to lift such coins and when
accompanied by mail for dispatch, attach
the requisite stamps.”
Lest the temptation to “lift” loose
coins prove to strong, the department
adds that if it is done the carrier dis
closing such weakness “will do so pure
ly as a matter of accommodation and
not by any direction or requirement of
the department.”

ON ALL AMMUNITION
Would Enlarge Arsenal So
That Exorbitant Prices
Would Not Be Paid
(By Associated Press.)
WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 28.—Over
charges for army ammunition “unbe
lievable to the average citizen,” accord
ing to Representative Tavenner, of Illi
nois, inspired him today to introduce
a bill providing for an appropriation of
$1,030,000 for # the enlargement of the
arsenal at Rock Island. Ill. The im
provements would include an extension
of the plants for the manufacture of
cartridges and field artillery ammuni
tion.
According to Mr. Tavenner, the gov
ernment is paying exorbitant prices, for
ammunitions for war. He declared it
paid approximately $25 for shrapnel
shells for the use of field guns when
it had been demonstrated that the
Frankford arsenal at Philadelphia could
turn them out for $12.52.
He also asserted that the same arse
nal turned out ball cartridges for the
service rifles at a cost of less than
$30 a thousand, while private contrac
tors were charging the government
something over $38 for the same sup
plies.
CUT; WIFE ARRESTED

Joseph Sharp, on Point of
Starting to New Orleans,
Has Throat Slashed
(By Associated Press.)
NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—Joseph Sharp,'
who had been employed as a steward in]
a restaurant here pending the settlement
of the estate left by his parents in New!
Orleans, was found dead with his throat
cut last night.
Although Mrs. Sharp insisted that her)
husband had killed himself after slash
ing her with a razor, the woman was ar-i
rested charged with murder. Mrs. Sharp
was badly injured. The couple had quar-.
reled, declared the wife, and in a fit or
temper. Sharp attacked her as she lay)
in bed. She telephoned for aid before
collapsing from weakness due to loss
of blood.
The charge against the woman, the
police said, was prompted by contradic
tory stories she told and by her state
ment that Sharp after he cut his throat,]
exclaimed: “Well, I did it!” This, said
the physician who examined the body fo<
the authorities, was an impossibility, as|
death from the throat gash had been
practically instantaneous.
