EMBARGO OFF GUNS 1LFI Immodest Dress Deplored AndModern Dances Scored At Georgia Synod Meeting Invasion of Mexico Will Not Be Necessary, Declares Senator Bacon, Head of Foreign Re lations Committee BY RALPH SMITH. WASHINGTON. D. C., Nov. 6.— President Iluerta will be compelled to retire from the provisional presidency of Mexico. This is the policy of the administra tion in dealing with the Mexican situ ation. according- to Senator Bacon, chair man of the foreign relations committee of the senate. That much is decided upon as a defi nite policy. Huerta’s failure to com ply with the request of the Ignited States, already conveyed to him, that iie get out and take his suite with hinj, will probably result, not in military in vasion by the United States, but in raising the embargo on the shipment <*f guns and ammunition into Mexico. The immediate effect of that action by the United States, it is believed in official circles, will be to put into the hands of General Carranza and his con stitutionalist followers the means by which . they may defeat Huerta within sixty days, gain absolute control and establish a stable government. CONFERENCE WITH CARRANZA. There has been communication be tween the United States authorities and General Carranza within the past few days. Various envoys have gone to the constitutionalist leader from the presi- dsnt with unofficial missions, but en dowed with power to convey and receive assurances. Among these is Ambrose Bierce, a well known, newspaper writer, ar.d a close friend of Secretary Bryan. Mr. Bierce left Washington three weeks ago on this mission to Carranza and communications have beei\ received from him since his arrival in Mexico. BY REV. JONAS BARCLAY. ROME, Ga., Nov. 6.—The morning session of the synod of Georgia was opened with devotional exercises con ducted by Rev. W. E. Hill, of Atlanta. A resolution was presented by Rev. Dr. R. C. Reed deploring “the preva lence of immodest dress, unclean the atrical plays and the degrading dances of the present day.” The resolution calls upon fathers and mothers to in- i struct properly and control their chil dren in this matter. It asks the pas tors to preach upon the subjects and requests the women’s unions to co operate in this crusade against what he branded the demoralization of young people. Rev. C. I. Stacey presented a splen did report of the Sabbath school work, showing a membership of 10.552 in our schools. Four hundred and eighty have been received into chfirch membership from the Sunday schools during the past year. These schools have con tributed $23,578 to the causes of the cnurch. Mr. Stacey, chairman of the Sunday school committe, urged that the churches pay the running expenses of the Sunday schools, that the schools might devote their gifts to tfi^ causes of the church. Rev. Dr. R. O. Flinn, after present ing the report on home missions and evangelism, urged the pressing need of a synodical evangelist for Georgia. He then stated that a long and fruitless endeavor by the state committee to se cure such a man had heen made. He added that he believed that at last God had led them to the right man. Rev. H. E. Falconer, D. D., of West chester, Pa., was then invited to ad dress the synod. Dr. Falconer is a Kentuckian and has the gift of utter- j ance. He is a man of impressive per sonality and strong convictions and | speaks? with constraining power straight from the heart. He has been working for sortie years as a Presbyterian evan gelist in Pennsylvania and has been marvelously successful in his work. His address was heard with great in terest by the synod. '// / SOUTHERN STATES ARE GAINING ON LEADERS IN THE NORTH IN MANUFACTURING COTTON GOODS PREDICTS E. 0. P. WILL JOIN THE PROGRESSIVES 1 Tifct the trend of political events points to an amalgamation of the Re- publian and Progressive forces In the next national election, was the. opinion .Expressed to a Journal reporter by Senator Robert M. LaFollette, of Wls- .y coasin, who. lectured in Atlanta Wednes day evening under the auspices of the Alkahest Lyceum bureau. Senator LaFollette made it quite clear, however, that in his opinion it there is to be a reunion of the two , parties, the old stand-pat, reactionary Republican leaders must give way to the Progressives and that Progressive ideals and policies must prevail. ‘There seems to be a disposition on - t!le P*art of the roamers to return to the cid party,” said the Wisconsin senator, who has long been known as a real Progressive, “but the old party must oe willing to be leavened by the leaven of progressiveism. The leaven must per meate the whole lump or there will be no lump.” SPLIT SCATTERED FORCES. “The split which occurred in the Re publican party at Chicago scattered our forces and we were further shot to Pieces in the elections last November, j hut the formidableness of the old party fan be restored if it will choose for its leaders real Progressive men who will stand for a government honestly administered in the interest of the peo ple of this country.” He commented freely upon the defeat of Tammany in New York City, however, and declared the result was gratifying to him. "I don’t believe Tammany can ever ‘•ome back, he said. “It has oontinued to cling to the old-time political machine tactics which flourished in New York un der Platt and in Pennsylvania under Quay. The people are done with the po- litial bosses. They fire aroused and are informed. Murphey laid himself open to attack and the result was just what 1 expected. If Tammany comes back it must do so as a clean organization, en gaged in clean politics, and sincerely In terested in furthering the cause of the people." Senator LaB’aliette was unstinted in his praise of President Wilson, whom he described as a ma« of intense patriotism and integrity. Referring to the Mexican situation Senator LaFollette predicted that if it became necessary for the Unit c.d States to intervene in that strife-torn country President Wilson would Jiave the j u-’-nimous support of congress 'and the j respect and confidence of the other world ! powers. ♦ 'WILSON’S COURSE PAIR. I to declared President Wilson had pur-' sued a fair and honorable policy toward Mexico and that he had liuilded a foun dation which would justify any action the United States felt compelled to take. The tariff Li!l recently passed by congress was declared by Senator La- rollette to l>e an excellent piece of leg islation. "There is no doubt that congress will pass a curffencj; bWI,” said Senator I.a- i'ollette, "but I'hope to see the bill now in the banking and currency committee of the senate strengthened. I feel that we must not only provide a currency of greater- elasticity, but that while we are about It we should pass a bill which will terminate the control of our cur rency by the big financial interests. “Representative Government” was the subject of tlfe lecture delivered by .Senator LaFollette Wednesday evening ■-■t the Baptist Tabernacle. He declared lie is devoting himself to building up progressive sentiment and said he ex pects to give all .his spare time during the next three or four years to this •vork in the south. PRAISES SMITH AND BACON. , During his talk with The Journal re porter, Senator La Follette took occa sion. to remark that he had noticed in Wednesday’s Journal that Senator Hoke Smith was at home for a brief stay. Georgia is ably represented in the United States senate by Senators Bacon end Smith,” said he. “In fact, she is me of the states which are best repre sented in that body. Her senators are both .men of exceptional ability and of strong influence.” BY RALPH SMITH. 1 these states in 1909 was' 902,625, or 60.6 per WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.—The percent- I cent of the total for the entire industry |' age of increase in the manufacture of. 4n the United States.

COST OP MATERIALS. The total cost of materials as reported for 1909, which, however, includes a con siderable amount of duplication, was j *371,009,470, an increase of $194,457,943, or 110.1 per cent over 1899. Raw cotton is by far the most important material, the amount used by establishments having in creased from 1,817,643,390 pounds in 1899 to 2,335,344,903 pounds in 1909, or 28.5 per cent, and its cost from $125,169,616 to $274,724,210, or 119.5 per cent. i One of the most important points j brought out is the marked increase in ’ cotton consumption in the coton-grow- j ing states and the consequent decrease! in the relative importance of the older manufacturing sections. In 1889 the’ New England states reported 63.9 per cent of the totalt cotton consumption for the industry, but the proportion had decreased to 51.8 per cent in 1899, and to 43.5 per cent in 1909. On the other hand, the cotton growing states, which comprise Virginia, Kentuey, Missouri, Kansas, Oklahoma and the states south, reported 22.4 per cent of the total con sumption in 1889. 48.9 per cent in 1889, and 49.S per cent in 1909. Massachusetts was, in 1909, as it had been in prior census years, the largess' consumer of cotton, 1,244,614 bales, or 622,368,027 pounds, being used in the cotton manufacturing industry of the state during the year. North Carolina was the next largest user of cotton In 1909. South Carolina was third, Geor gia fourth and New Hampshire fifth. Plain cloths for printing or converting comprise by far the most important class of woven goods, as measured by quantity, constituing in 1909 35 per cent of the total. Brown and bleached sheet ings and shirtings ranked second, fol lowed by ginghams, fancy woven fab rics, twills and sateens, and napped fab rics, in the order named, the production of each of these classes of cloths being more than 300,000,000 square yards in 1909. The output of plain cloths for printing or converting increased 40.7 per cent between 1899 and 1909, and its value 92.3 per cent. The output of sheet ings and shirtings increased 22.4 per cent, and their value 60 per cent. Spindles and Looms. / 11am J. Harris, of Georgia. Georgia ranks fifth in the manufacture of cotton goods. Massachusetts still holds the lead, with North Carolina, South Caro lina and Rhode Island ranking in the order named. Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Alabama are in line behind Georgia. It is only a question of time when North Carolina will replace Massachu setts as the leading state in the manu facture of cotton goods. The growth of the industry in the Old North state has been greater than elsewhere, and the latest figures show she has crowded South Carolina out of second place. The proportion of women engaged in the cotton mills in New England is much larger than in the south, but the southern mills use more child labor than do the mills of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Connecticut and Rhode Island. The average number of persons en gaged in the cotton manufacturing in dustry, as a whole, during 1909, was 387,771, of whom 378,880, or 97.7 per cent, were wage earners. Of the total number, 221,299, or 57.1 per cent, were males, and 166,472, or 42.9 per cent, were females. The average number of children under sixteen years of age em ployed as wage earners was 39,306, of whom nearly one-half were girls. Chil dren constituted 10.4 per cent of the total number of wage earners. CHILD LABOR IN THE SOUTH. In three southern states—Alabama, North and South Carolina—nearly 19 per cent of all the wage earners in the in dustry -were children under sixteen years of age. In Massachusetts only 5.7 per cent were children. Practically one-half (50.4 per cent) of the wage earners were in establishments where the prevailing hours of labor were between 54 and 60 per week, and nearly one-third (31.5 per cent) were employed in establishments where the hours were sixty per week'. O the 1,324 establishments reported for 1909, 163, or 12.3 per cent, manufactured products valued at $1,000,000 or more. There were included in this group five establishments with products valued at $5,000,000 or more, the aggregate value of their products exceeding $37,000,000.

MANAGUA, Nicaragua, Nov. 6.—The frustrated plot to assassinate President Adolfo Diaz, of Nicaragua, and all his cabinet ministers on October 29 was laid by the conspirators with remarkable care, according to details published her* today. The plotters, members of the Liberal party, divided thernselves into three groups. The first of these was charged with the work of killing the president and two cabinet ministers; the second was to assassinate Vice President Fer nando Soloranzo and the minister ot foreign affairs, and the third group was {to throw dynamite bombs among the j members of the chamber of deputies while they were in session on the after noon of October 29. The discovery of the conspirators while they were meeting to arrange final details of the plot was purely acci dental .Nearly all of those connected with the affair have been imprisoned. QE INCOME TAX LAIN ! THE INFERNAL QUESTION! ‘JULIAN L. MURPHEY OIES The total number of cotton spindles small establishments—that is, those man- in the principal textile Industries in ufacturing products valued at less than $20,000—constituted a small proportion of the total number at both censuses, and the value of their products formed only one-tenth of 1 per cent of the total. The average value of products per es tablishment increased from $390,353 in 1904, to $474,616 in 1909, and the average number of wage earners likewise increased from 274 in 1904 to 286 In 1909. The total expenses reported for the in dustry in 1909 were $554,221,688, distributed as follows: Cost of materials, $371,009,470, 1909 was 28,178,862, of which 27,425,608 were in the cotton mills, including a comparatiely small number ih mills making cotton small wares. The in crease in the number of spindles from 1889 to 1899 was 6,079,804, or 35.3 per cent from 1899 to 1909, 8,714,878, or 44.8 per cent. The greatest percentage of increase in any industry from 1899 to 1909 was in the hosiery and knit goods industrv 134.8 per cent. Eight stat.es—Georgia, the two Carolinas, and all the New Eng- P ® r c f nt: L. 32,839,145 ’ or 24 ' land states,, except Vermont—reported per cent, salaries, $14,411,758, or 2.6 per more than 1,000,000 active producing cent; and miscellaneous expenses, made up of advertising, ordinary repairs of building and machinery, insurance, trav eling expenses, and other sundry expens es, $35,941,315, of 6.5 per cent. The states which ranked highest with respect to the amount of power used were Massachusetts, South Carolina, North Carolina, Rhode Island and Geor gia. The total horsepower reported for spindles in 1909. . Massachusetts, the leading state, with 9,637,601 spindles, shows a gain of 1,705,930, or 21.5 per cent, for the 10-year period, 1899-1909. South Carolina reported the greatest ab solute and relative increase during the decade, the gain being 2,323,922 spindles, or 161.7 per cent. In North Carolina the increase was 1,820,907 spindles, or 160.1 per cent. Judge Frank Park Elected To Congress From Second ALBANY, Ga., Nov. 6.—Practically complete returns show that Judge Prank Park, of Sylvester, won yesterday in the special election to fill the unexpired term of the late Congressman S.

Fisher Cat Tries To Pull Lines With Pa ws MIAMI, Fla., Nov. 6.—While it is gen erally known that cats love fish, there is only one cat, so far as is known, that attends to providing its own meals of fresh fish and also looks after the family platter. This cat is Sambo, a black one, who is owned by Mrs. W. J. Strauber. of Miami. Sambo learned that his favorite food came from the water and that it was landed on the end of a string. Since he made the discovery he has been interest ed in any string with an end on the dock and the other end in the water. Wherever the cat sees a line he watches patiently and the minute the cork bob bles, Sambo sets up a loud mewing and does not cease until some one takes the fish from the hook. Sambo has been seen many times try ing to pull in a line with his paws, but the effort has never been repaid with success. Sporting Editor of The Journal Victim of Malady Which Baffled Physicians Julian L. Murphey, for years a mem ber of The Journal’s staff, died Thurs day morning at 11 o’clock at St. Joseph’s infirmary, after a , brave but hopeless fight against the strange malady which sapped his strength. There is sadness in The Journal building, for no man of the many who have served the paper and passed on ever made closer friends among his confreres. And the announce ment of his death will bring deep re gret far outside the circle of the Fourth Estate, too, for all the city s knew Julian Murphey, and to know him was to be his friend. Until a month ago Mr. Murphey kept steadily at his desk as sporting editor, but for a considerable period he had found himself tiring more easily after physical exertion. Then one day on the golf links at East Lake he fainted. He rose and tried again, but was too weak to continue the round. It was not until then that he or his friends realized that he was really ill. At St. Joseph’s infirmary the physi cians said he was suffering from per nicious anaemia, a malady which grad ually saps the strength of its victim through the breaking down of the blood corpuscles. There is no remedy known to science, and several physicians call ed into consulation shook their heads and said # there was no hope. Mr. Mur phey lingered several weeks, growing a little weaker every day. He did not suffer, and drifted into unconsciousness as the end approached. Mr. Murphy was born in Barnesville, on June 26, 1887, and received his edu- SECURITIES OE STANDARD OIL MAKE SHARP RISE (By Associated Press.) NEW YORK, Nov. 6.—A sharp rise in securities of the Standard Oil com pany was the feature of today’s opera tions in the curb market. The demand is supposed to have been stimulated by belief that enforcement of the income tax may result in an early distribution of the large surpluses held in the treas uries of subordinate companies. Standard Oil of Kentucky advanced 45 points to 525 during the morning. Atlantic Refining rose from 655 to 690. Standard Oil of New York also regis tered an advance and stocks of foreign companies mad eminor gains. At the offices of the Standard Oil com pany knowledge of an approaching dis- rtibution was denied, but it was ad mitted the income tax might work some change in prevailiing dividend rates.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 6.—Commissioner of Internal Revenue Osborn today noti fied his collectors that banks in certain sections have misinterpreted that prorl- * sion of the federal income tax law relat ing to its payment on interest on obliga tions of the United States or its possear- sions, or any state, county or political' subdivision thereof. The banks have refused, the commis sioner says, to pay coupons for interest on such bonds unless they are accompa nied by certificates of ownership without deducting the normal income tax of 1 per cent. “Please inform all parties interested.” said the letter, “that the income derived from the Interest upon stick obligations is not subject to the income tax and a certificate of ownership will not be re quired.” Interest colpons, the commissioner points out, should cleanly show whether they are published .the United States or a politic#! subdivision, and if • they do not an ownership ^certificate is neces sary.
