OX MARCH 7th personal letters from prominent bankers in two southern states were received at the Tanlac office. These, like hundreds of thousands of other communications that have been pour ing in with every delivery of the mail for the past year or more, express the writers' high appreciation K of the merits of lanlac. as proven by their-own experience with it. The first letter quoted comes through Eli W Goode, druggist and local agent for Tanlac at Hawkinsville. Georgia, containing the statement of E. J. Henry, president of the Hawkinsville Ban* and Trust company, which is one of the best known financial institutions In tha. part of the state. His letter fol lows jukt aa it was written: “Hawkinsville. Georgia. March 5. 1917. Mr G F. Willis. Atlanta. Georgia. "Pear Sir: Mr. E J.

I came to vou and bought a bottle of Tanlac and began to Improve. Two more bottles put me all right, and I felt perfectly well. A few weeks ago I had the grippe and was beginning to get down and out again, and about a week ago I bought another bottle and have taken it and am perfectly well again. “ T unhesitatingly recommend Tan lac, to anyone who is sick and worn out. as I believe that if anybody will lake Tanlac when they fleet begin to feel bad it will prevent and keep off sickness.

These endorsements have come from people representing practically every walk of life. Includ ing Bankers. Lawyers, Judges, Doc tors. prominent Government, State and County officials, prominent men of af faire. etc., but it is a noteworthy fact that in this particular instance two well-known bankers of the South have on the same day voluntarily writ ten an expression of their gratitude for publication, telling what Tanlac has done for them. In this connection one of the best known newspaper publishers of tha South recently said: "I know that there are at least a thousand people in this city who would be glad to endorse Tanlac,” and what is true of that city is true of prac tically every other city of the south and west: in fact, throughout the en tire country wherever this medicine has been sold. The fame and popularity of Tanlac. as everyone knows, has swept over the whole country like wildfire and is now a household word from coast to coast. Although placed on the market a lit tle over two ydars ago over seven million bottles have already been sold, and the demand is constantly increas ing. Tanlac is sold in Atlanta exclusively by Jacobs’ Pharmacy and by one reg ular established agency in every town. —(adv.) EIGHT OFFICERS OF LIEBENFELS DRAW TERMS IN ATLANTA Germans Convicted of Sinking Ship in Charleston Harbor Must Pay Fine and Serve Year in U. S. Pen (By Associated Frats.) FLORENCE, S. C., March 10.—Eight officers of the German steamship Lieb enfels sunk in Charleston harbor the night of January 31 last, today were sentenced to spend a year in the Atlanta federal penitentiary and to pay a fine of SSOO each. They were convicted yes terday of sinking a vessel in a navigable stream. Bond was fixed at $6,000 in each case, which the defendants were not immedi ately able to give. While efforts were being made to arrange for bonds the prisoners were kept in the federal court house under guard. Nine officers of the vessel were in dicted but as Captain Kiatennhoff was 111 in Charleston his case was postpon ed. Each was charged with conspiracy to sink the Liebenfels and also with sinking a vessel in a navigable stream. They were acquitted of the conspiracy charge. Major G. A. Youngberg, a United States engineer stationed at Charleston, testified that there was pos sible danger to vessels attempting to reach the navy yard because of the course they had to take because of the sunken Liebenfels. Those convicted are Johann Lubken, first officer. George Sunkel. third officer. J. E. Jansen, chief engineer, Heinrich Wattenburg. first assistant engineer. Johann W. Buse. second assistant en gineer, Morits von Thulen, third assist ant engineer. August House, fourth as sistant engineer and Wilhelm Schwar ting. machinist. All are Germans ex cept Jansen who maintains he is a Dane.

LEADERS IN CONGRESS PUNNING FDR EXTRA SESSION ON APRIL IB Democrats and Republicans Both Are Claiming Majority in the New House—Demo crats Control Senate <By Associated Ft ess.) WASHINGTON, March 10.—Uncer tainly felt about rhe capitol for the last week over an early session of congress was replaced today by preparation for the special session called by President Wilson for April 16. five weeks from Monday, to consider appropriation bills and other important measures on which final action was not taken before ad journment of. tne sixty-fourth congress last Sunday. The new body probably will be asked to consider the armed neutrality bill specifically authorising President Wil son to arm American ships and appro priating funds for the purpose, despite the president’s decision yesterday that he already has executive power to put navy guns, gunners ana ammunition aboard merchantmen. The organization or the new house cannot be foretold at this time, for a majority is 218, and the standing is; Republicans, 215; Democrats, 214; Pro hibitionist, Progressive, Progressive- Protectionist. Socialist and Independent, one each; vacancy, in Democratic dis trict, one. Both Republican and Dem ocratic leaders declare they will have support from enough of the so-called in dependent group to control the organiza tion. but there is considerable talk of a coalition organization. The new senate is Democratic by a majority of twelve. Speaker Clark believes congress will find so much work before It that It will continue in session until August, 1918. Appropriation legislation which must be passed before July 1 includes the army, sundry civil, general deficiency and military academy bills, carrying in aggregate more than 1500.000,000. Among the measures which failed in the last congress, strongly urged by the ad ministration, are the railroad labor bill, Webb foreign selling agency bill, con servation and land leasing measures and acts to enlarge the interstate com merce commission and give wider pow ers to the shipping board. CALL FOR CONGRESS. The president’s proclamation calling the extra session of congress follows: Whereas, public interests re quire that the congress of the Unit ed States should be convened in extra session at 12 o’clock, noon, on the 16th day of April, 1917, to re ceive such communications as may be made by the executive. Now, therefore, I, Woodrow Wil son, president of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim and declare that an extraordinary occa sion requires the congress of the United States to convene in extra session at the capitol in the city of Washington on the 16th day of April, 1917, at 12 o'clock, noon, of which all persons who shall at that time be entitled to act as members thereof are hereby required to take notice. Given under my hand and the seal of the United States of America the 9th day of March in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and seventeen, and of the independence of the United States, the one hundred and forty-first. BOTH SIDES OPTIMISTIC. Optimistic forecasts of the control of the next house came from Democratic and Republican leaders when they heard of the president’s call so. an extra ses sion of congress. Many unbiased ob rervers, however, foresee only a long and bitter organization fight anless a coali tion agreement prevents. Both Speaker Clark and Representa tive Woods, of lowa, chairman of the Republican congressional commlttes. predicted victory for their respective parties. Etch said his party was as sured of at least 218 votes. The offlcl.il standing of the incoming house is ss follows: Republicans, 215: Democrats, 214; Pro hibitionist, 1; Progressive. 1; Progress ive-protectionist, 1; Socialist. 1; Inde pendent, 1; vacant, 1. The vacancy exists in the fifteenth New York district, which is over overwhelmingly Democratic. It has been generally believed Governor Whit man would call an election before next Friday, which would mak» virtually cer tain a tie at 215 between the Democratic and Republican membership on the open ing day of the session. Republican leaders are worried over i the illness of three of their members j and the statement of a iourth that he does not favor Representative Mann for speaker. Representative Hill of Con necticut, Sulloway, of New Hampshire, and Graham, of Pensylvanla, are ill. Representative Heintz, of Cincinnati, re cently stated in a letter that he did not "favor” Mr. Mann. All of the newly elected Democratic and Republican members probably will be summoned here for caucuses a week or ten days before congress is reconven. ed. Several former Progressives now enrolled as Republicans, it is understood, will decline to be bound by caucus rules. Some members of both of the old par ties would not be surprised to sea a coal ition agreement entered into before April 16. and the elate carried through with a rush before the end of the first day. Success of the bl-partisan propos al will depend in a great measure on the international situation and gaps which may be caused in the ranks of the big parties by illness or death. Neither side proposes to permit weeks of weari some and useless balloting for sneaker to tie-up important government business. Despite the growing talk of coalition ' the five Independents insist they will not acquiesce quietly to wishes of big party leaders. By agreement none of the independents will pledge himself to any candidate for speaker until all have met here again. Sentiment developed at today’s meet ing of the Democratic senate steering committee for "n adjournment of the special senate session next week, so that senators may have some time at home before the special session of congress opens April 16. As a result it Is probable no effort will be made now tn press the $15,000,000 Colombian treaty for ratification. Democratic leaders have been told there will be no further sßlous oppo sition to the confirmation of Dr. Cary T. Grayson as medical director and rear admiral. • The committee took no action, but In formal discussion disclosed that sen > ators believed the special session in April should.continue only long enough to put through legislation demanded by exigencies of the International situation and those appropriation bills which failed In the last congress. An appropriation will be made if Pres ident Wilson asks, for arming ships, but I unless he so desires the armed neutral ’ tty bill will not be pressed. Instead, a I joint resolution may be proposed to de clare It to be the sense of congress that the president acted within his power in arming ships. COALITIDN OF TWO PARTIES IN CONGRESS SEEMS IMPROBABLE Schall, Progressive, An nounces He Will Not Be Par ty to Movement to Block Im portant Legislation (By Assceiated Press.) WASHINGTON. March 10.—The pos sibility of a coalition organization agreement between Democrats and Re publicans in the Incoming house of representatives was considerably les. senetl today in the opinion of many members of the announcement of Rep resentative Schall, Progressive, of Min nesota, one of the five so-called Inde pendents, tiiat he would not be a party to an independent movement which would block important legislation. As the bi-partisan plan originally was broached only with the view of de feating a deadlock by the refusal of the Independents to support either a Republican or a Democrat for speaker, leaders of both Lie parties tonight fore saw an abandonment c.f the movement. They predicted that before the ballot ing for speaker had proceeded far all five Independents would be voting with the old parties. Republicans generally accepted the development as meaning an additional vote for Representative Mann for speaker as Representative Schall spoke in behalf of the Republican national ticket in the last election. Hasty surveys of the situation today following the call for a special session April 16 found both sides still claiming a majority. Both were hoping for the vote of Representative Martin. of Louisiana. Progressive Democrat, but it was admitted that he had not pledged his support to either side, ff the Inde pendents do not maintain their organi zation. it was generally believed today that Representative Randall. of New York, probably will vote with the Dem ocrats, and Representative-elect Fuller, of Massachusetts. Progressive, with the Republicans. Announcement today by Governor Whitman that he will call a special election to select a successor to the late Representative Uonry, of the Fif teenth New York district, was a wel come development for the Democrats. They say that there is no doubt that in the overwhelmingly Tammany dis trict which Uonry represented, another Democrat will be elected. That would bring the Democratic total to 215. with in three of enough to re-elect Speaker Clark. The Quinine That Does Not Affect the Head Because of its tonic and laxative effect.

WILSON TO FILL VACANT JUDGESHIP IN NEAR FUTURE One or Both of Georgia Sen ators May Object to Nom inee and Request His Rejec tion By Senate —~ BY RALPH SMITH WASHINGTON, March 10. —President Wilson is expected to make a nomination early next week, probably on Tuesday, to fill the long vacant judgeship in the southern district of Georgia. Whet het the nominee will be confirmed by the senate may depend upon the man select-1 ed by the president. It is possible that one or both of the Georgia senators may object to the nom inee and request his rejection by the; senate. If the senators united in such a request, it is a foregone conclusion tha’ their wishes will be respected by their colleagues and the nomination reject ed, leaving the southern district further without the services of an additional federal judge until such time as the pres ident may nominate for the judgeship a man acceptable to the senators. If on the other hand, the senators fail to unite in opposition to the nomination, a situation will be presented that may or may not result in rejection. There are many things more remote than a disagreement between the sena tors respecting the nomination about to be made. WEST SELECTED. Senator Hardwick originally selected John T. West, of Thomson, for the judi ial appointment. Under the custom con cerning the distribution of responsibll-! ties in the northern and southern dis ; tricts of the state. Senator Smith con curred in the selection of his colleague. I It was known, though not publicly an nounced at the time, that the senior senator would not look with disfavor! cn the nomination of former attorney I general Thomas S. Felder, of Macon. It was likewise understood, though not pub- Holy stated, that Senator Hardwick would not oppose Mr. Felder’s confirm-j ation in the event of his nomination, though he preferred Mr. West and pub licly announced he had no second choice. The name of Mr. West was presented to the attorney general, with the an nouncement that his nomination would be satisfactory to Senator Hardwick and Senator Smith. Attorney General Gregory,' whose recommendations con cerning judicial appointments usually control the president, seemed impressed with Mr. West’s legal attainments and capacity but lie lias refused thus far to recommend his nomination, because he believes him to be too old in years. He is 58. The attorney general has never indi cated his reasons for withholding his endorsement of Mr. Felder but it is un derstood he contends the appointment should be given to some capable at torney who has had judicial experi ence. in these circumstances, the names of several judges and ex-judges have been under consideration by the department of justice. Among them Judges Z. A. Littlejohn, of Americus; U. V. Whip ple, of v.’ordel"; Joseph Bennett, of Brunswick: W. E. Thomas, of Valdosta, j Tom Parker, of Waycross, and others. It is understood that the attorney 1 general has been well impressed with! the record and experience of several of these gentlemen. Senator Hardwick, it [ is understood, is not disposed to accept the nomination of any person other! than Mr. West or possibly Mr. Felder. I He believes that Mr. West, enjoys ev- ' ery necessary qualification satisfactor- i ily to discharge the duties of the judge- I ship and he is loath to abandon his choice and participate in the confirma- ; tion of any other nominee SENATOR SMITH’S VIEW. Senator Smith takes a different view of the matter. While he favors the; nomination of Mr. .West, he thinks that j his first duty is to the people of the southern district, to see that they get a good,judge. He doesn't feel that his , loyalty to Mr. West should operate to I commit him everlastingly against the . selection of any other man. He recog nizes that the nominating power is vested solely in the president and that | his rights in the premises are advisory! cnly. He exercised this right in advising the' apipoiinment of Mr. West, but if the! presidffht decides to appoint some other person capable of filling the office, the. senator feels it his duty at least not to} oppose the-confirmation. If any one other than Mr. West should; be nominated, as seems possible, the i chances are that Senator Hardwick earn-; estly. will urge the senate to reject the I nomination, while his colleague, Sena-1 tor Smith, may vote for the confirmation.! The attorney general, it may be point ed out in this connection, has seemingly] made a studied attempt to ignore and I disregard senators, especially with re-1 spect to th© judgeship appointments. Tn ; the state of Texas, he utterly disregard- ! ed the wishes of Senators Culberson and! Sheppard. In Louisiana, he did not re spect the recommendations of Senators Brossard and Ransdell concerning a dis trict court judge. In Ohio he paid no heed to the wishes of Senator Pomerene, and in Alabama he informed ’Senators Underwood and Bankhead that their rec ommendations for a federal court ap pointment would not be considered as binding. Tt has been his policy, in most cases, to make selections satisfactory to himself, and take a chance on their con firmation in the senate. He has been universally successful up to date, but whether h© will succeed in the matter of the Georgia judgeship remains to be seen. Ushers Quit Their Jobs After Row With Pastor >By Associated Press.) NEW YORK. March 9.—A1l the ushers of the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian church have resigned as a result of a disagree ment with their pastor, th® Rev. John Henry Jowett, over the course to be fol lowed In seating strangers. This church is crowded nearly every Sunday with visitors from outside the city, and Dr. Jowett, backed by the session, lias in sisted that places left vacant by pew holders should be held no later than 11 a m. Two weeks ago, observing some vacant pews, the pastor announced that if he found any more vacant seats he would read off the names of the pew holders. The ushers are all volunteers, and many of them have served for fif teen or twenty years. Fifth to Leave El Paso Not Later Than Mar. 21 BY LEGARE DAVIS. EL PASO.
