PAGE MUST T£LL FORTY THREE
HIS REASONS SHIPS ARE LOST
FOR EXTRAORDINARY SPEECH
HE IS SAID TO HAVE MADE —
RELIEVES HE HAS BEEN MIS
QUOTED.
London, March 13.—Ambassador
Walter Hinge Page today received
from Secretary of 'State Bryan, offi
cial notification* that the United
States had called for an explanation
of his speech on the Panama Canal,
which he made here Wednesday.
Ambassador Page, after readtn:
carefully the press accounts of his
address, expressed the belief that
. his speech was misquoted.- The Sec-
• retary of State requested the Ambas
sador to cable an Immediate expla
nation.
Mr. Page said today that he had
distinctly said In hla speech that the
United States would object to,
prohibit, any European power from
taking more territory In the New
World. In conclusion, he said he
had remarked, amid laughter, “So
you see, the United States would pre
fer that no European powers should
' gain more territory In the New
World."
He said the press dispatches put
a wrong interpretation on his speech,
giving the Impression that the lat
ter utterance was his explanation of
the entire scope of the Monroe dec
trine.

MEOICAL SOCIETY /MET AT PAVO
Very Well Attended and Interesting
Session Held at that City
Thursday.
The Thomas County Medical Con
vention was held In Pavo Thursday,
and it was one of the most enthus
iastic and well attended meetings
that the society has ever held. Sev
eral discussions on various topics of
Interest were indulged, addresses
made by several physicians and a
very Interesting talk on appendici
tis was given by Dr. Emory Park,
of the State Board of Health. Dr.
Park Is a fine talker and Is well
versed in his work. He Is a nephew
of Congressman Park of this district.
After tho convention was adjourn
ed, the visitors were given a very
delightful dinner by the resident
physicians of Pavo.
The Association decided to meet

vite all physicians of Colquitt, Mitch
ell, adn Grady counties to attend and

OUT OF CHURCH
Atlanta, March 13.—The Baptists
'of Atlanta are split, on the question
of whether or not church members
ought to get out of the church or
get out of the locker-clubs.
Dr. C. W. Daniel, of the First
Baptist Church 1b trying to get his
church to pass resolutions providing
that If members of the church, who
are members of the clubs cannot get
the clubs to cut out booze, they shall
resign from the clubs. Whether Dr.
Daniel will succeed In getting the
resolution passed In Its present form
is problematical, but certain It Is
that some leaders among the lay
men of his ehjrch concur in it hear
tily.
A strong dissenting voice, how
ever, Is raised against such methods
of procedure, uy Ur. Caleb A. ltld-
ey, of the Central Baptist church,
Dr. Ridley says the Baptist church
s democratic, and that lie does not
presume to say what Dr. Daniel and
his congregation chould do, but that,
In his estimation. It Is wrong
the church to try to regulate by
hard and fast rules the social con
duct of their members.
"The conduct of Christian men
and women should be an outflow,
rather than a mechanical move un
der pressure," declares Dr. Ridley.
Mellila, Morroco, March 13.—For

Atlanta, March 14.—That perma

any this year. If you have been sit

Imagining that the new law would
save you the trouble of reg'sterlng

LAWYERS REFUSE TO MAKE MO-
TION FOR NEW TRIAL AND
JUDGE RAPS THEM SEVERELY,
ACCUSING THEM OF DISBE
LIEF IN MKDIOAJ, TESTIMONY.
Chicago, March 14.—William
Cheney Ellis, a Cincinnati merchant,
accepted his sentence of fifteen years
without making an effort to get
new trial. Tho formal motion for a
re-tall, previously made by Ellis'
counsel, was withdrawn.
Judge Petit followed the Instruc
tions of the jury In fixing Ellis’ sen
tence at fifteen years. He denounc
ed Ellis' attorneys for not makln:
any further effort In behalf of their
client. He also accused them
"abandoning him at the preliminary
stage of this fight for life.”
Judge Petit said the action
withdrawing the motion for a new
trial, signified the fact that Ellis'
counsel hadn’t faith In their own
medical witnesses.
Dr. Thomas Hogan had testified
that Ellis was Insane when he com
mitted the murder. The Judge then
appointed an Assistant states attor
ney to investigate Dr. Hogan’s tes
timony. "Two friends of the court,"
said the Judge, "Informed me that
they had talked with Dr. Hogan some
time before the trial. At that time,
he said that Ellis had never been
Insane."
Dr. Hogan this afternoop Issued a
statement saying that he had never
said Ellis wasn’t Insane. He further
declared this testimony was accord
