VOLUME XIII. ATLANTA, GA. TUESDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1913. NO. 10. United States Will Not Take a Foot of Territory by Con quest, Declares President in it ■ -lo-bile Speech (By- Associated Press.) MOBILE, Ala., Oct. President Wilson announced to the w6Iji today •that the governing motive of the United States in its relationship with the coun tries of this hemisphere would be “mor ality and not expediency.” “I want to take this occasion to say,” he declared, “that the United States will not seek to secure one additional foot FIVE MILUDHS Gil!! B THOSE IB 101! Saturday Deposits of Atlanta Banks Show Clearings of $5,470,592,93 Gained Over Last Year of territory by conquest.” The president in a speech before the Southern Commercial congress deliver ed a veiled attach on what he termed *the material interests” that had influ enced the foreign policy of some govern ments in their relations with the na tions of Latin America. Though Mr. Wilson did not mention Mexico as the afflicted country, he devoted his entire speech to a description of the degrading influences which foreign concessionaries had had upon the internal affairs of some of the Latin-American countries. With the Mexican situation upper most in the president’s mind at this time, his address was interpreted by his hearers as an arraignment of those financial influences which it has been charged has secured in some cases rec ognition for the Huerta government in Mexico from the big powers. •The president declared that it would be v tb« duty of the United States to assist'the nations of this hemisphere in an “emancipation” from “the material interests of other nations,” so that they might enjoy constitutional liberty un restrained.” The president spoke extemoraneously. CLOSER NEIGHBORS. “I came,” he said, “not to speak for the south because the south has the jjift of speaking for herself. I came >ere because I would speak of our pres ent and prospective relations with our neighbors to the south. The future is going to be very different for this hem isphere from the past. Those states lying to the south which have always been our neighbors will be drawn closer to each other by common ties of under standing. “Interests do not tie nations together; it sometimes separates them. But sym pathy and understanding does bind them together. “You hear of concessions to foreign capital in Latin-America, but you don’t hear of concessions to foreign capital in the United States. They are not granted -concessions. They are invited to make investments. It is an invita tion, not a privilege. And states that are obliged to grant concessions are in the condition that foreign interests are apt to dominate their domestic af fairs. Such a condition of affairs is apt to become intolerable. And it is emanci pation from this inevitable subordina tion which we deem it our duty to as sist in. “Their self-respect, their achieve ments in spite of these difficulties de serve nothing but the admiration of the world. WILL BE EMANCIPATED. "I rejoice in nothing so much that they will be emancipated and we ought to be the first in taking part in assisting in that emancipation.” The president digressed to point out that the department of sta.te had re cently “tried to serve in that wise,” but mentioned no specific instances. FRIENDS ON EQUALITY. “In the future,” he continued, “the nations to the south of us will draw closer to us because of those circum stances of which I am speaking. We must prove ourselves their friends and champions on terms of equality and honor. We can’t be friends on any oth er terms than those of equality. And we must show ourselves friends by com prehending their interests whether they square with our interests or not. It is a very perilous thing to determine a for eign policy in terms of material inter ests. It is indeed a degrading thing. N(3T BY CONQUEST. “I take this occasion to say that the United States will not gainseek to se cure one additional foot of territory by conquest. “I would rather belong to a poor na tion that Is free than a rich nation which has ceased to love freedom. Mor ality and not expediency is the thing that ihust guide up and we must never condone iniquity.” The president’s speech was constantly interrupted by applause. He rode through crowded streets bowing and nodding from his automobile to cheer ing throngs. ' Atlanta’s bank deposits, which re liably reflect the financial condition of eGorgia and the south, reached a high water mark Saturday when they exceed ed thosb of the corresponding Saturday a year ago by more than $5,000,000. The deposits Saturday aggregated the enormous sum of $34,896,667.93, as com pared to $29,426,074.97, the total deposits on Saturday, October 26, 1912. The gain this year was exactely $5,470,592.93. It is confidently predicted that this year's bank deposits will break all pre vious records, and the same thing is ex pected of the bank clearings. Brad- street’s weekly bulletin, issued Satur day, places Atlanta fifteenth in the amount of bank clearings for that week as reported by the cities of the United States. CAPITAL AND SURPLUS. The statements as to capital, surplus and undivided profits are equally en couraging, as, in each particular, they* show a remarkable t increase. On October 26 in 1912 the totai capital of the banks was $5,676,230, and in 1913 on October 25 it was $5,700,000, an increase of $23,770. The surplus and undivided profits in 1912 on October 26 were $5,408,145.15, and in 1913, on October 25, the amount was $5,6 75,927.27, a gain of *•>(57 789 19 COTTON CROP CAUSE. The marked increase of deposits is accredited to the early marketing of the cotton crop, which is one of the largest In, years. Movement of the staple has just started at a good price and there is every indication tht this yer’s crop Will net a tremendously large sum. Other crops are good, too, and the sea son is one of prosperity everywhere. The condition of the banks of the city has always been sound, and each year shows an increase in the deposits and surplus, but the leap to something over five million^ increase Is a startling indication of the growth and financial prosperity of the city and the state. With two more months still in this year, the total of business for the year will probably mark the record for At lanta. JUDGE SPEER’S ILLNESS • MAY POSTPONE PROBE BE TOLDFOR WEEK Powers Expected to Join With United States in Ousting Huerta Provided He Is De clared President (By Associated Trees.) MEXICO CITY, Oct. 27.—Returns of yesterday’s election may possibly be known within a week, but it is more likely that a fortnight will elapse be fore the result is placed before the public. Not even a good guess as to who was at the top of the poll can be made at present. Returns are frag mentary. In the federal capital itself the result may be known within a day or two. Telegrams received today by the de partment of the interior showed that the elections at Guadalajara and Toluca were orderly. At the close of the eelctions yes terday the indications were that ribt sufficient votes had been ca&t in Mex ico to constitute a legal choice for the presidency to succeed General Victoriano Huerta. No official announcement has been made, but it is unofficially estimated, judging from the results in the capital, where it was expected the vote would be up to the average, that less than 10,000 of the 80,000 eligible voters in' the federal district went to the polls. There are said to be more than 3,000,000 eligible voters in the republic. It would be no surprise if congress, the members of which also were voted for yesterday, declared the elections void when that body is organized and revises the returns. The leaders of the Catholic party claimed a long lead, although they were unable to estimate the number of votes polled for their candidates, Frederico Gamboa and General Rascon. DIAZ RAN SECOND. If this claim is correct, it is generally thought that General Felix Diaz and Senor Requena ran second. The liberal candidates, Manuel Calero and Flores Magnon, had no printed tickets at the polling places, their constituents being obliged to write their names on blank ballots. President Huerta did r\ot vote. He spent the day at his Poptla suburban home. A decree will be issued by General Huerta today increasing the army from 85,000 men, its alleged present number, to 150,000. General Huerta proposed such an increase some time ago, but the congress, which he dissolved, limited him to 80,000. Since the deputies and senators are not subject to the election provisions governing the presidential elections, it, is said that the choTce for congress is assured. It is assumed, on the show ing so far as known, that the Catholic party will have a majority in both chamber and senate. Tnere was no semblance of disorder in any quarter of the city. A few pa triots were on the streets, but neither police nor troops had any but their usual duties to perform. Expect Powers to Rally To Support of U, S, WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—According BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—The prelim inary investigation on the charges against Federal Judge Emory Speer, which was to have begun on November 10 at Macon, may be postponed, owing to the serious illness of the accused jurist. None of the members of the subcom- tee of the judiciary committee that has, _ . , _ . , been named to conduct the probe, is in ! ;‘° un ° ffl ° l advlc ' is received here to- Washington today, and pending their ? ay - the exchanges of views between return it will not be known definitely ~ ."rmann ° what course will be followed. Private advices received in Washing ton from Judge Speer’s bedside indicate that his condition is even more serious than the press reports from Mount Airy state. It is understood here that the judge is hopelessly ill, and that his death is a question of only a short time. It is stated that Judge Speer’s af fliction has been aggravated by the charges that have been filed against him, and that for weeks he has suffered from occasional attacks of hysteria. It Is reported that he has not been ad vised of the committee’s original plan to begin its inquiry on November 10, and that his family fears to impart the information to him. Judge Speer Shows Marked Improvement (Special Dispatch to The Journal.) MOUNT AIRY, Ga., Oct. 27.—Dr. Steven Harris, of Highlands, N. C., Judge Emory Speer’s physician, issued the following bulletin Monday after noon on the jurist’s condition: “Judge Speer’s condition Monday morning shows a marked improvement over his condition on Sunday. He is now out of danger, and his ultimate re covery appears assured. While the judge is still very weak and unable to leave his bed at present, It is hoped that he will be strong enough to attend the hearing before the congressional com mittee investigating his judicial con duct. However, it is uncertain as to whether he will be sufficiently strong to do so.” A Wink, a Hug; Fair Maid's Rib Is Broken BARTLETT TO 60 TO CARLSBAD FOR HEALTH the European powers at Paris was preparatory to showing the United States that action in Mexico hitherto by the various foreign governments was not intended tfs an evidence of un friendly feeling. It is believed the movement towara showing this country concerted friend liness was instituted by the French government. Upon the outcome of these diplomatic parleys across the ocean depends, It is understood, whether or not the Washington govern ment will issue the already prepared note defining its views that interfer ence by foreign governments with the American, policy toward Mexico was not desired. Many people conversant with the sit uation predicted ,that the United States already had reason to feel that Europe was preparing to manifest a spirit of co-operation and that the issuance of the proclamation might offend the sen sibilities of those nations which up to the present had refrained from embar rassing the United States In any way. President Wilson, though absent from Washington, was kept constantly advised of the situation. Just what the next step in the American policy will be has not yet been determined by th e officials themselves. It is be lieved a course of action will be framed on the outcome of the Mexican election and the incidents of election day. Should the election fail to result in a choice and indications point toward Huerta being continued In power for a long period, it is understood some move on the part of Europe in support of the American demand for the elimi nation of Huerta from the situation is looked for. go hfe &S IT u USED TO Be m Little, U ATE ft*. - — s> % SO/L, VlVSASrri THE TIDE OF IMMIGRATION Ffll MM DISASTER (By Associated Press.) DAWSON, N. M., Oct. 27.—By noon today 132 of the victims of the Stag Canon mine No. 2 disaster had been buried. The major portion of the bodies now being recovered are in such condi tion that they cannot be shipped or laid out in the morgue for public funeral service, as was done with the first two score. Health officers are vigilant to see that the sanitation of the town is not impaired. Rescue men who bring the bodies from the mine are subject to disinfectants after each trip. Bodies are taken ot the' cemetery directly from the temporary morgue at the mine, and if identification is possible members of the dead miners’ families are not permitted to view them. Danger from fire passed last night, when air currents were directed into every room of the workings and no smolders were found. Government mine experts will remain here two or three weeks in an effort to determine positively the cause and the nature of the disaster. The Red Cross, Salvation Army and the Stag Canon Fuel company at once will begin efforts to arrange affairs of the dead miners' families. Treasury Officials Held Up by Watchmen Who Didn’t Know ’Em (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—“Are you a newspaper man?” demanded, a treasury department watchman of George R. Cooksey, the new secretary to Secretary McAdoo. “I was, but I am not now,” replied Cooksey. “I’ve reformed.” “What are you?” demanded the watch man, putting qut a restraining hand. Mr. Cooksey replied that he was an em ploye of the treasury department. “Ah,” ejaculated the watchman, “you’ve overstayed your lunch hour and I’ll have to report you.” Mr. Cooksey gave his name and finally was admitted to the nation’s treasure house. Assistant Secretary Hamlin and Assistant Secretary Nekton also have been held up recently by watchmen who failed to recognize them. GEORGIA AMONG FIRS! ® TO HAVE PIG CLUBS (By Associated Press.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—Organization of boys’ pig clifbs in the southern states for the purpose of increasing the supply of pork and encouraging the breeding of good hogs Is planned by the department of agriculture, it was announced today Boys’ corn clubs and girls’ canning clubs already are established institutions in the south. Pig clubs already have been organized in Alabama and Louisiana, the depart ment announces, and a club organization has been started in Georgia.

The pig clubs, when thoroughly or ganized, it is expected, will work hand in hand with the corn clubs. The boys of the latter will produce the corn and the boys of the newly organized associ ation will see to it that the pigs are produced to consume the corn. til JUDY BY FEAR OF MOBJPCE" So Declares Attorney Reuben R, Arnold, Who Was Still Speaking When Court Ad journed at 12:30 o’Clock DETROIT, Mich., Oct. 27.—If a fair maid plays hugrging games she really ^e n too™am young man meak™ Georgia Congressman Returns of her ribs, a jury in Judge Hosmer’s court decided after deliberating an hour over the testimony in the case of Mrs. Henrietta Merihugh Schoell against James Reichard.

BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 27.—Polar trout, the only fur^bearing fish known to ntaural history, is the latest contri bution of the arctic regions, according to John. Bunker, of North wood Center, N. C.j who has reached Boston from a two months’ exploring trip in Green land. He brought photographs and actual specimens of the strange fish, which he has called polar trout. This peculiar denizen of the polar re gions resembles a square-tall trout in shape and gamenes, and reaches ten to fifteen pounds in weight. The skin is covered with a fine brownish fur, re sembling the texture of moleskin. Tills fur is slightly spotted with white, as-is a young seal in the spring. Bunker says this fact first led him to call the curiosity a polar trout. Bunker caught in all three spec! mens, two in a river and one in a small headwater pond, about 200 miles north of Baffin’s bay. eve(Atywhaav.. etaoi. etaoin eta SACRAMENTO, Cal Oct. 27.—Roy Logan, a young farmer, of Shasta coun ty, claims to be the champion rattle snake slayer of the west. He went camping and spent the first night in an abandoned barn. It was dark when he reached the barn and he lay down In a manger filled with straw. When Logan awoke next morning three rattlesnakes were in sight. One lay full length and asleep on his breast, and * the two others were stretched out beside him. He got out of the manger as quickly and gingerly as possible and killed the dozing serpents. In stirring up the hay Logan awoke a den of rat tlers on which he had slept throughout the night. He killed fourteen. It is ex plained that because of the extreme cold ness that prevails in the high mountains of northern California after nightfall the snakes were benumbed.

Remembers $1 Loan: Gives Woman $10,000 PITTSBURG, Pa., Oct. 27—Thirteen years ago, Miss Cora Bowser, a servant girl, loaned $1 to W. M. Morrow, who had concluded that the east held none of the good things in life for him, and had decided to go * west to prospect for fortune. She considered the dollar in th? light of a friendly contribution to Mor row’s fortune, and proceeded to forget about it. In the passing years nothing was heard from Morrow, and he was for gotten even by his friends. Meanwhile Morrow was doing a lot of hard plugging. Recently he “landed,” making his strike in Nebraska. Miss Bowser has received a certified check f«r $10,000. With additional excoriation of tho so licitor general, Hugh M. Dorsey, for his methods In conducting the state’s case at the trial of Leo M. Frank for the murder of Mary Phagan, and with addi tional attacks upon the evidence which the state marshaled against Frank t<f secure his conviction, Attorney R. R. Arnold, of counsel for Prank, occupied the morning session Monday of the new trial hearing in Frank's behalf be fore Judge L, S. Roan. Mr. Arnold began his speech about non last Friday, and spoke at the Friday afternoon session again, and continued at both sessions of the court Saturday. When adjournment was taken for lunch, at 12:30 o’clock Monday afternoon, Mr. Arnold said that with about fifteen min utes more at the afternoon session to be gin at 2 o'clock he would finish his speech. After Mr. Arnold concludes. Attorney Frank Hooper, who assisted Solicitor Dorsey in prosecuting Frank, will have his turn with the argument, presenting the state’s side for the first time at the present hearing. He will occupy not more than a couple of hours, he said Monday morning. Solicitor Dorsey will follow him. Attorney Luther Z. Ros ser, of counsel for tho defense, will conclude the case with his own argu ment. Mr. Arnold has devoted almost his entire attention to the evidence pro duced by the state, It is expected that Mr. Rosser will confine his argument to u»e law points upon which the de fense asks a e«w trial. The defense informed the newspaper men that it had been notified of the mailing from the Pacific coast of copies of several newspapers out there which carried, under date of Ootober 10, ac counts furnished- by a news agency, not the Associated Press, of the execu tion of Leo M. Frank in Atlanta for the murder of Mary Phagan. WILBURN TRIAL. Mr. Arnold opened his speech by call ing attention to the Wilburn trial, fin- . lshed the other day in Georgia. “That shows how we treat our own boys when they are on trial,” said ha He went into a detailed description of the charge against Wilburn, and de clared “if the crime Itself has anything , to do with the feeling against a man on trial, In that case certainly there would have been a great prejudice against Wilburn, for the crime with which he was charged was hideous enough. Yet when the verdict was re-1 turned in that case, there was not a murmur In the court, not a cheer. Peo ple on the streets expressed their sor row that It had been necessary to find the man guilty and sentence him 1 to the death penalty. That was a very com mendable and proper attitude. It was due to the fact that Wilburn was not an alien, but one of our own farmer boys. “I wonder. If they had had against him not his own confession but only tho statement of a dirty negro crook like Conley with only strained facts to cor roborate it, how long it would have taken the same Jury to turn him loose. It woiild have taken Just about a mo ment. They wouldn't have gone out ot the box to reach a verdict.” He referred to the fact that the In dictment against Frank was returned without Conley's statement. “They didn’t have a bit of evidence. They didn’t wait to get any. They showed by their act in pressing that bill of indict ment that they were going after Frank to get him, regardless. That is the spirit In which the whole case has been conducted.” CURRENCY BILL UP~~ FOR FINAL HEARING Well-Defined Sentiment in Evi dence for Federal-Controlled Bank WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.—Final con sideration of the administration cur rency bill in the senate banking; com mittee began today. The committee went into executive session to consider amendments to the measure with a well defined sentiment in favor of a govern ment controlled central bank in evi dence. With strong* opposition to the central bank plan apparent in the house, and from President Wilson, the committee will probaly be unable to write that principle into the bill. General compromises on the various provisions of the administration bill is looked for. The president already has canceded a reduction in the number of regional banks fixed by the bill at twelve, and the elimination of the sec retary of agriculture and the comptroll er of the currency from the federal re serve board. LEPER NURSE, OUTCAST, IN CITY, TO SPEND REST OF HER LIFE AT COLONY Miss Marie Colliers was a nurse to lepers, and she herself escaped the dis ease and returned to "the world of the living,” only to find that the supersti tion of leprosy is as bad as its germ. Miss Colliers has given up the idea of suicide and sentenced herself to give the rest of her life—she is twen ty-five years old—to the lepers, “be cause lepers are not afraid to be near j “I thought I might live with the clean,” said the girl, “but the clean will not believe that I am clean.

She said she had de termined to die, but a friend in Mil waukee told her that her duty was to go back to the leper^ Aged Negro Sings and Preaches in His Sleep WILMINGTON, N. C., Oct. 27.—Ma jor Perry, a seventy-four-year-old ne gro. who lives over in .South Carolina, continues to amaze scientists by his wonderful faculty of preaching In his sleep. A few minutes after retiring each night, the aged negro falls into a hyp notic state, in which, after the manner , of his boyhood days, he “lines out” a hymn verbatim and sings it in a most sepulchral tone. Then he offers a fer vent prayer, as if in a congregation in worship. He next announces a text, stating the book, chapter and verse, and then quotes the verse word for word. When he says “Amen” at the end of the sermon he seems to relax and with out awakening passes into natural sleep. Major Perry is an ex-slave and can neither read nor write. Awake, he can not even tell anything about the Bible, much less quote it accurately. If awak ened after his “worship”* is over and asked to repeat the hymn he has Just sung, or the Lord’s Prayer, which he has just used, or the text he has quoted, he if? as blank as a child. While in his hypnotic state he has never been aro'hsed. Me*i have tried to do it by sticking and pinching, by run ning smoke up his nose and rubbing pepper in his eyes, but to no aval). lie preaches right on.
