THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOTJBNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2, 1913. By mkwiwi mn 'V'mm 4 * ' IS USED BY HIS ENEMIES Efforts Made by Habeas Cg rous Writ to Bring Him into Court Tuesday (By Associated Press.) SHERBROOKE, Quebec, Sept. 1.— Harry K. Thaw’s favorite though inef fective weapon in the New York courts, the writ of habeas cor pus, was turned upon him today by his old prosecutor* William Travers Jerome, as a means of forcing Thaw into court here next Tues day in order that the immigration au thorities may deport him to Vermont, in what Mr. Jerome hopes will be the first leg of the trip to Matteawan asy lum. Tc?ri~ai, satisfied with his work, Je rome left for Quebec to spend Sunday. He was accompanied by Franklin Ken nedy, deputy attorney general of New York. John Boudreau, the rural chief of police at Coaticook, Thaw's proud cap- tor, after he had crossed the Canad ian frontier, was the fulcrum used by Jerome and his Canadian lawyers in obtaining the writ. The police chief was persuaded that Thaw’s detention in the Sherbrooke jail on a defective com mitment might result in a damage suit for false arrest, so he petitioned Su perior Judge Samuel Hutchinson to have the prisoner produced in court. Judge Hutchinson, at nrst loath to disturb the status of the case, Thaw having been remanded to jail for an indefinite term by a brother judge, Ar thur Globensky, finally consented to hear arguments on the writ at 10 a. m. Tuesday, when Thaw’s lawyers will have an opportunity to oppose it. If the writ is sustained Thaw will be turned over to the immigration offi cers at once and will be taken to Coati cook for hearing, and doubtless be thrust across the Vermont border, there .to be seized by deputy sheriffs acting for New York state on the warrant charging him with conspiring with Howard Barnum. the Matteawan guard, and others to escape. Jerome’s coup was made possible by the sudden return here of Judge Hutch inson. who had been in Maine on his vacation. By the merest chance Sam uel Jacobs, chief of counsel for the New York interests, was apprised of his return, and made a dash back to Sher brooke after leaping from a train bound for Montreal. The immigration author ities, also bound thither, returned on the next train and waited about the court house today in the hope that the hear ing on the habeas corpus writ would be held at once. HE WANTS GOVERNMENT TO MAKE ARMOR PLATE Representative Britten Would Appropriate $7,000,000 for Factory WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.—-Represen tative Britten, of Illinois, introduced today a bill to appropriate $7,00,000 for a government armor plate plant to be operated by the navy department. His idea is to break what he calls "the _ . trust now controlling the armor plate situation in this country." He con tends that a government plant should turn out 10,000 tons a year at not ex ceeding $314 a ton. IS [HEED ON BUIE Trial of Man Who Aided Thaw to Escape Is Postponed and He Makes Bail (By Associated Press.) SHERBROOKE, Quebec, Sept. 1.— ‘‘Gentleman Roger” Thompson, the chauffeur who whirled Harry K. Thaw away from Matteawan i*n an automobile, today was a free man. Police Magis trate Mulven admitted him to $500 bail, after he had appeared for trial charged with aiding Thaw, an undesir able, to enter the Dominion. F. Camp bell, of the immigration department, an nounced he wished to press first the charge of Thompson having entered Canada by stealth. Thompson s counsel, acting with the Thaw counsel, objected to proceeding on this charge and at their reuuest ad journment was granted. With Thaw in jail for an indefinite period—probably till the session of the king’s bench in October—and % the Thompson case postponed, indications were today that there had set in a de cided lull in matters pertaining to Stan ford White’s slayer. Thompson’s bail was supplied by the Thaw family. William Travers Jerome, chief of the New York state forces working for the deportation of Harry K. Thaw, having returned here from Quebec early today after £. fruitless trip to see the premier and attorney general, Sir Lomer Gouin, whom he found absent, the status of the state’s case in the Thaw matter re mained unchanged and lawyers for both sides gathered in police court for the trial of “Gentleman Roger” Thompson, “I do not think I shall return to Quebec,” said Mr. Jerome. “We did not see the premier; he was not in town I cannot say what will be our next step.” M. Campbell opened the case for the prosecution, electing to try Thompson on the charge of entering the dominion by stealth, sidelocking the Thaw issue. Adjournment was taken until Wednes day, September 3. Thompson was admit-, ted to $500 bail. Officials Decline to Discuss Thaw Case ALBANY, N. Y. f Sept. 1.—Charles J. Doherty, minister of justice of Canada, and acting minister of the interior, and Sir Lomer Gouin, premier of Quebec, arrived here today on their way to West Point to join Lord Chancellor Haldane. They declined to discuss the Thaw case on the ground that some phase of it might coine before them officially.

BURLESON HAS NAMED 5,765 POSTMASTERS Postmaster General Has Aver aged 32 a Day Since He Assumed Position (By Associated Press.)

Refused Food in Its Prison (By Associated Press.) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. J.—A rattlesnake with nine rattles whose plump folds have dwindled to flabbiness since he was imprisoned in a glass cage two months ago by C. L. Baker, who caught the reptile while on a picnic, kept Humane Officer Merrill “on the jump” all day yesterday and perplexed humane society officers and deputies in the county prosecutor’s office for hours. “Ir a rattlesnake is a pet, is feed ing mandatory?” was the puzzle that Humane Officer Merrill warded the au thorities to solve before putting Baker under arrest for cruelty to a rattle snake. It required the expert advice of an animal expert to settle the controversy. His opinion, given after comparison be tween the rattlesnake and an English suffragette on a hunger strike, was that a rattlesnake is “an animal which just out of spite, won’t eat for weeks after it is placed in captivity.” The humane officer was satisfied and no further atempt was made to arrest Baker. PETROLEUM SHIP BURNS; $200,000 PROPERTY LOSS (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—Fire swept the petroleum carrying ship Burgenmeister Hackman on the Broklyn water front last night, destroying thousands of tins of oil and leaving the vessel a shell apparently ready to sink at her dock at any moment. The property loss was about $200,000. The ship owners, a Hamburg con cern, had chartered her to an oil com-1 pany to carry 150,000 tons tins of re fined oil to New Zealand. The vessel was to sail Thursday. BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 1.—The so-caued publicity campaign in the in terest of Judge Emory Speer, whose of ficial conduct is to be the subject of congressional investigation, and possible impeachment, probably will furnish the judiciary committee with still another subject of inquiry with reference to the accused, jurist. A member of the judiciary committee stated today that the annoymous circu lation of the Federation on Labor reso lution was calculated to excite resent ment in congress and possibly furnish the basis of still another charge against Judge Speer. This member of the committee was possessed of a copy of the resolutions, containing the typewritten introduction referring to “Congressman Bartlett’s charges of tyranny and oppression.” He called attention to the fact that the resolutions were mailed from Mount Airy, where Judge Speer has been spend ing the summer. UNION LABEL MISSING. “And,” he added, “you will observe that while the resolutions pertain to 'any measure to diminish the territorial jurisdiction of the Hon. Emory Speer,’ there is no such measure pending before congress at this time. The only meas ure pending before congress with refer ence to Judge Speer relates to his of ficial acts, which are to be the subject of an investigation. “A significant fact in connection with the circular is that although it con tains the resolutions of the Federation of Labor, it does not bear the union label.” While the member didn’t say as much, it was inferred from his remark and his manner that he suspected that the Fed eration of Labor had nothing whatever to do with either the publication or cir culation of the resolutions “as to Con gressman Bartlett's charges of tyranny and oppression.” AN IMPROPER ATTEMPT? It is the contention of congressmen that, if Judge Speer is responsible for the circulation of the resolutions from Meunt Airy, or has .*■ nnctloned the so- called publicity campaign, then he is liable to the charge of improperly at tempting to influence congressional ac tion with reference to a matter of the highest importance. The judiciary committee, by unani mous agreement, is proceeding in the Speer case with caution and silence None of its members desire to do the accused judge an injustice. Outside of the fact that the committee has been impressed by the so-called publicity campaign and its serious aspect, it is impossible to ascertain definitely what line of procedure will be followed to run it down, and fix final responsibility. It may be stated, however, that the com mittee is determined, if possible, to as certain, not only the extent of the so- called publicity campaign, but the source of its inspiration. CHAIRMAN SUBCOMMITTEE The selection of a chairman for the special subcommittee of the house judiciary committee may be governed by the action of the United States sen ate with reference to the seating of Henry D. Clayton as a senator from Alabama. If Judge Clayton’s credentials from Governor O’Neal are accepted by the senate, and Judge Clayton is seated, then the chances are that either Charles Creighton Carlin, of Virginia, or John Charles Floyd, of Arkansas, will head the subcommittee. If, however, Judge Clayton is not seated in the senate, then Edwin Yates Webb, of North Carolina, will be chair man of the subcommittee. Representative Debb is the ranking Democrat on the judiciary committee, and if Judge Clayton goes to the sen ate, Mr. Webb will succeed to the chairmanship of the big committee, and, as chairman, it is not likely that he would be able to absent himself from Washington during a session of con gress. Therefore, he would prefer not to Serve on the subcommittee that In tends to hold its hearings in Georgia. Assuming that Judge Clayton remains in the house, and chairman of the judiciary committee, it is believed that the Speer subcommittee will be consti tuted as follows: Representatives Webb, of North Car olina, chairman; Carlin, of Virginia, and Floyd, of Arkansas, Democrats; Volstead, of Minnesota, and Nelson, .of Wisconsin, Republicans. ONLY SIX IMPEACHMENTS: Since the foundation of the United States government only six federal judges have been impeached by the house of representatives. Three of these were acquitted by the United States senate, and three were found guilty oi the charges and removed from the office. If the charges against Federal Judge Emory Speer are sustained in the opinion of the judiciary committee, it is regarded as certain that he will be impeached, and the proceeding would CADETS IT WEST POINT Lord High Chancellor of Great Britain and Party Off For Montreal (By Associated Press.)

ASKS GOVERNMENT COIN FOR BANKS OF ALABAMA Walker Insists That State Banks Should Participate in $1,500,000 Fund .Suecial Dispatch to The Journal.) MONTGOMERY, Ala., Sept. 1.—In asmuch as the small state bank Is the one called upon, in the beginning of the cotton crop movement, to handle the cotton and furnish the finances, State Superintendent of Banks Alex E. Walk er Insists that the state' banks of Ala bama should participate in the $1,500,- 000 put out by the federal government in this state for .the purpose of aiding in the marketing of the cotton crop. He also thinks that Alabama has not received Its just share of the total fund appropriated by the government for tne movement of the cotton crop. He cannot see why Florida and Maryland, with Inappreciable cotton yields, should come In for as a part as Ala bama, Superintendent \Valker, in his claim for participation by state banks in the fund, claims that there are 258 state banks and only eighty-six national banks in Alabama, and that most of the former class are small hanks in the interior cotton centers. Best-Hated of Farm Tasks O N the spreaderless farm the thought of the great heaps of manure piling up constantly in barn yards, stables, and stalls, is a gloomy one. Those piles mean much disagreeable and bard work. Three times every bit must be handled. It must all be loaded onto high wagons. It must be raked off in piles in the fields. Then every forkful must bo shake!, apart and spread. Compare that old-fashioned method with the spreader way. You pitch the manure into the spreader box, only waist high, drive out and —the machine does all the rest. And, far more important, if you buy an I H C spreader one ton of manure will go as far as two tons spread by hand, with the same good effect on the soil, and it will all be spread evenly. 1 H C Manure Spreaders are farm necessities. The man who uses one will get the price of it ■ back in increased crops before its : -wness has worn off. 1 H C spreaders are oonutru -ed u jeordin- to plans in which every detail, every feature, is made »< :o. t. They ar built to do best work under all circumstances, an * to ctanfl very strain for years. They are made in all styles and sizes, for small farms and large, low and high machines, frames of braced and trussed steel. Uphill or down, or on the level, the apron drive assures even spreading, and the cover ing of corners is assured by rear axle differentials. In all styles tha rear axle is placed so that it carries near three-fourths of the load. This, with the wide-rimmed wheels with Z-shaped lugs, makes for plenty of tractive power. Winding of the beater is prevented by large diameter and the beater teeth are long, strong and chisel pointed.
