N.USSEMBLIHE
EXPELLEDBV VOTE
ALBANY. N. Y., April I.—The five
suspended Socialist members of the
New York assembly were expelled
today on charges of disloyalty fol
lowing an all-night debate.
Individual vote on expulsion was
taken on each member.
The five Socialists are: August
Claessens, Louis Waldman, Charles
Solomon, Samuel A. Dewitt and Sam
uel Orr.
Lieutenant Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt led the fight for reseat
ing them. One of the two women
members, Miss Margaret L. Smith,
spoke in favor of expulsion. Speaker
Sweet also took the floor to urge
ousting of the Socialists.
Owing to the fact that the men
were expelled after midnight on
March 31, there can be no special
election® to fill their seats in the
assembly unless an extraordinary
session of the legislature is to be
convened.
Voting on the question of expelling
the Socialist members was begun at
9:38 a. m. today. Louis Waldman, the
first voted on, was, expelled. The
vote was 115 to 28.
August Claessens was expelled.
The vote was 116 to 28.
Charles Solomon also wa» Cupelled.
The vote was 116 to 28.
Samuel A. DeWitt and Samuel Orr
were expelled. The vote in DeWitt’s
case was 104 to 40, and in Orr’s 114
to 40.
By its action the assembly estab
lished a precedent altogether unique
in legislative history in the United
States, as never before has an entire
party delegation been ejected from
any legislative body.
Party lines disappeared in the vot
ing. The Democrmatic minority,
which was supposed to be pretty well
united in favor of reseating the So
cialists, polled a majority of one
vote in favor of expelling Wald
man, Claessens and Solomon, the
Democratic vote on these men be
ing eighteen for unseating and seven
teen for restoring them to their
former legislative status. Twenty
one Democrats voted to reseat De-
Witt and Orr. while fourteen favored
their ‘expulsion.
The Republicans, by a devision of
98 to 11, voted to unseat Waldman,
Claessens and Solomon, and on the
DeWitt-Orr votes they stood 89 to
29.
When the assembly adjourned, after
the seats of all five Socialists had
been declared vacant, it had been in
continuous session twenty-three
hours and forty minutes. ,
The final chapter lacked the thrills
that many of the spectators had
expected. Speaker Thaddeus C.
Sweet closed the debate at 9:36 a.
m., and within two minutes the call
ing of the roll had been begun in
the case of Louis Waldman. Under
the rules, no member is allowed to
explain his vote when voting on a
resolution; virtually every member
was in his seat, and as a result the
five roll calls were run off in record
breaking time.
Some assemblymen who had voted
to unseat Waldman, Claessens and
Solomon cast their ballots in favor of
reseating DeWitt on the ground that
the evidence had not incriminated
DeWitt and Orr beyond establishing
their adherence to the doctrines and
platforms of the Socialist party. Ma
jority Leader Simon L. Adler shared
this opinion.
The debate lasted about twenty
hours, and more than forty members
participated. The chamber was
cro-wded with spectators from the
time the assembly convened at 10:30
a. m. yesterday until long after
midnight. Many of the visitors re
mained throughout the night and
heard the assemblj’ record its ver
dict.
SAYS SOCIALISTS WILL
MAKE APPEAL AT ONCE
NEW YORK, April I.—The five
ousted Socialist assemblymen will
appeal immediately to the state su
preme court and if necessary, will
carry their case to the United States
supreme court, S. John Block, asso
ciate counsel, said today.
Mr. Block said the appeal -will be
arrange das soon as the Socialist at
torneys can confer.
The Socialist attorney said the ap
peal would be made on several legal
questions involved, emphasizing that
under the state constitution the as
sembly has no right to censor the
political affiliations of its members.
He declared the federal constitution
was violated in that guarantee
of a republican form of government
to every state was ignored when the
five Socialists were suspended and
their constituent? left without rep
resentation.

EYE-WITNESS OF
TORNADO TELLS
HIS EXPERIENCES
NOTE. —The following first-person, eye
witnesses description of the scenes attending
West Point’s visitation by a disastrous
cyclone last Sunday, tells the experiences of
Fred Schaefer, well-known Atlanta real
estate man associated with the 11. 11. Otis
agency, and a former citizen of West Point:
By FRED SEAEFER
‘‘lt is indeed difficult to attempt to
describe the horrors of being in a
cyclone such as the one that passed
through West Point last Sunday aft
ernoon. Webster failed to invent
words to fully cover a description
of such a' trying time.; in fact, one
must go through it to appreciate just
what it means.
“You have no doubt heard a heavy
loaded freight train from three to
five miles away approaching at a
midnight hour when everything was
calm. At first. you could barely hear
it, and then it, would get louder and
louder as it neared you. Then with
a roar and lumbering noise it would
shoot by and then the noise re
versed until it was again out of
sight.
“But, believe me, there never was
a freight or even a fast express
train that traveled the speed of that
wind Sunday. It was more like light
ning when it comes to speed.
“The atmosphere became close and
sultry, the heavens became dark, and
then it lightened up to a golden
shade, and then you could hear the
roar; yet no one thought for a mo
ment it was more than an approach
ing automobile. And the strangest
part of the storm was the failure
to hear any thunder. There was
neither thunder nor lightning.
“West Point Is my old home town
and I went down Saturday afternoon
to spend the week-end with my rela
tives and. old friends. I was at my
sister’s home when’ the storm passed,
and which was right in its path. To
gether with my sisters, two nephews
and niece, we were all in the sitting
room. About 3 o’clock we noticed it
was getting a little cloudy, though
never thought much of it and that
perhaps we would have a shower, but
instead it grew darker and darker
and then lightened up to the golden
shade as above described. If it had
been at night I believe it would
have looked more like fire. Then
came the roaring noise, and then the
stobm.’
Feeling Indescribable
“The double doors to the front hall
was open* and by locking them, and
with the force of my two nephews,
George and Shaefer Heard, and my
self leaning against them we man
aged to keep them closed, while all
the other doors afid windows were
locked and closed. •
“Then came the crisis. The win
dows were blown in, the chimneys
fell, the columns supporting the ve
randa were blown away, immense
trees fell upon the house and the
house rocked and reeled. I called to
gether the entire family and while
all huddled together around the hall
door pleaded with our Heavenly Fa
ther to save us. There are no words
to describe the feeling at this mo
nlent, perfectly helpless and with
but One to call upon. We thought
that every second, not minutes, but
seconds, we would all be lost.
“It lasted about three minutes, but
I must say .it seemed like three
hours. The storm then proceeded on
its journey, weeding down every
thing in its path. As above stated,
the wind part of the storm remind
ed me of a fast express train pass
ing a non-stop station, but instead of
seeing it you heard it and when it
had pass/d it was all over and gone.
“I then walked out on the front
porch to see just what, and how
much damage had been done, and
was attracted by the voice of a lady
calling for help. At this moment it
began to and such a rain I have
never seen before. My nephew and
myself ran around the corner in re
sponse to the call by the lady and
found their home a complete wreck.
We picked up three of the small chil
dren in our arms and carried them to
some of the neighbors whom were
more fortunate in their loss, while
a half dozen other men with saws
and axes cut timbers apart to res
cue the older members of the family.
There was no one killed in the
house, though one of the little girls
suffered a broken leg, and other
members of the family were badly
bruised and cut. On the next block
was the Presbyterian church, a com
plete wreck, and where Mr. Isom
Stanley lost his life and Mr.
Ferguson was badly injured. The
elders of the church were hav
ing a meeting there, planning the
future of the church, or rather plan
ning to erect a new church. There
were about eight in the party, and
the remaining six were spared, which
escape was indeed miraculous, as the
church was wrecked to the ground.
“Then to go up to the business sec
tion of the city and to see the de
struction and toll of death was
simply heart-rending. In the death of
' Mr. L. D. Askew, West Point lost
one of its best citizens. Mr. Askew
was president of the board of edu
cation, a deacon of the Baptist
church and prominent in every cause
for the good of the town. When kill
ed he was no doubt filling a pre
scription for the sick or doing a
good turn for some one. Roland
Horne and Blake Henry and others
that were killed I did not know.
“Had the storm happened the day
before and at the same hour there
would have been not less than 200
lives lost, as it was estimated a
crowd of from 5,000 to 8,000 people
from the surrounding country was
in town.
West Point Plucky
“And right here I wish to say
West Point is without a doubt the
pluckiest little city in the entire
south. And there are no better citi
zens to be found on the top side of
the earth. Come back? Why inside of
two months no one will evbr know
that a cyclone had been within a
hundred miles of the town. By 6
o’clock the next morning, 1 venture
to say there were from 500 to IJIOO
laborers and teams on the job mov

NO EFFORT MADE
TO PREPARE NAVY,
ASSERTS FULLAM
WASHINGTON, April I.—Because
of the navy department’s policy of
“indifference’’ no effort was
bring the navy to a state of pre
paredness before the war, Rear Ad
miral Fullam, former commander of
the Pacific reserve fleet, declared to
day before the senate naval investi
gating coAimittee.
The admiral said that in 1915
when he went to the Pacific coast to
take command of the reserve fleet
the ships had so small complements
that they could not be moved from
the dock. The navy was “fatally
short of men,” he added, but the de
partment failed to advocate suffi
cient personnel increases and was
“to tally indiferent to the possibil
ity of a state of war being forced
upon it.”
The only persons in the navy de
partment who would listen to his
pleas for more men and material
preparedness were the assistant sec
retary and members of the general
board, the officer declared.
BALDWIN STILL ok STAND
IN NAVAL COURT INQUIRY
WASHINGTON, April I.—Com
mander F. D. Baldwin, witness for
Admiral Sims, continued his testi
mony today before the naval court
investigating the removal of Rear
Admiral William F. Fletcher from
command of the Brest convoy forced
by Admirals Sims in October, 1917.
Commander Baldwin, in his open
ing testimony, described in detail his
duties as aid for material on Admiral
Fletcher’s staff at Brest. These, he
declared, were not sufficient to oc
cupy his time, although, the admiral
denied his request that additional
duties be intrusted to him. It was
the “general impression” at Brest,
the officer declared, that Admiral
Fletcher had not so organized his
staff as to make “full use” of it.
Counsel for Admiral Sims had pre
viously examined Admiral Fletcher
as to the organization of his staff.
General March’s Visit
Expected to Result in
Benning’s Completion
COLUMBUS, Ga., April I.—The
visit of General March .chief of
staff, to Camp Benning today, has
been an event of unusual interest,
in view of expected orders to resume
construction activities on the big
military reservation on a large sale
right away. /
General Marh, witlfi a small staff,
arrived in the ity last night, anl
was met at the station by Colonel
Farnesworth and a ommittee of lo
al militar yauthorities. The party
was aompanied to the amp head
quarters, instead of the Ralston ho
tel as had been planned, the distin
guished guests spending the even
ing with the loal amp ommander.
Early today the party made an
inspetion of the big amp, going over
the reservation and ooking fhto de
tails of the task of completing the
local post.
While no official information was
available, it is confidently believed
that the,visit of the chief of staff
will be followed by orders to resume
construction activities at Benning
and that the great military establish
ment will very soon be completed.

stating that her brother, Harold IJal
stead, former srmy officer and only

been killed by customs officers near
Fort Hancock, Tex. Mr. Halstead
was inspecting his land holdings,
the message stated, and was mistak

BIMINI LIQUOR
(DEALER BITES
AGENT’S FINGER
TAMPA. Fla., April I.—Only aft
er Charles Vincenti, of Baltimore,
had almost bitten off Special Agent
M. S. Bobst’s finger, when the agent
attempted to prevent his leaping
overboard in deep water, was vigor
ous force used by the three federal
agents who arrested the liquor dealer
at Bimini Thursday, according to the
report of the agents ,made to United
States Attorney Herbert S. Phillips,
here. The report- also contains the
charge that Vincenti came aboard
the agents’ boat to conclude a “deal”
for the sale of whisky from his
warehouse, to be smuggled into the
United States. According to the re
port, it was while Vincenti was in
the vessel’s hold, figuring how much
whisky could be safely carried, that
Revenue Agent Arthur Johnson, from
Baltimore, announced his identity and
served the warrant.
Even •when force was used, ap
parently it was not severe, for the
agents report *hat the next morning
Vincenti was escorted to a bank in
Miami, and no mention is made of
any first aid being required by Vin
centi when they reached the Hills
boro Lighthouse, where Agent Bobst’s
finger was dressed. Z
After the “first misunderstanding,”
as the agents refer to the biting epi
sode, they say Vincenti offered no
opposition to accompanying Johnson
to Baltimore and they quote his al
leged signed endorsement on the war
rant, expressly waiving removal pro
ceedings and at times he seemed per
turbed at signs of interruption of
their journey. Vincenti’s friends,
ho-wever, werp not so willing—it be
ing alleged by the agents in the re
port that Vincenti had promised a
loan of $300,000 to the Bimini Rod
and Gun club, which was to have
been put through the day following
his capture. They sued out a writ
of habeas corpus in Miami, but in an
automobile race to West Palm Beach,
where Johnson and his prisoner were
placed on the train, the agents won.
Some idea of the extent of the op
erations at Bimini are given in the
agents’ report, which says-’ that Vin-
I centi had shipped to the Bahamas a
shipload of liquors—36,ooo cases and
1,200 barrels. The revenue storage
tax on this shipment, which was on
the steamer Lake Ellersly, will net
the colonial government $300,000.
Charles Marshall Is
Found Guilty on
Charge of Murder
TUPELO, Miss., April 1. —The
: jury trying Charles Marshall on a
charge of murdering Fannie Green
Miller, her infant child, and her
father and brtoher, returned aver
- diet of guilty Wednesday.
i Marshall sentenced to hang on
Friday, May 14.
The verdict finding Marshall “guil
; ty as charged” was returned imme
diately after court reconvened after
the noon recess—less than two hours
after argument was concluded and
the case submitted to the jury.
J. E. Marshall, father of the man
convicted today and the latter’s
brother, Felix Marshall, are charged
with complicity in the qua’druple
murder. The elder Marshall is ex
pected to be placed on trial tomorrow.
Lawton Henderson
Killed; Two Sought
ALMA, Ga., April Lawton
Henderson was shot and killed near
the home of Mr. Steve William?, two
miles from here, Sunday morning,
while an undertaker was embalming
the body of Mr. Williams, who had
just died. Reports say Henderson
had come up in an automobile with
Dan Wilcox and a young man by
the name of Williams, and that after
the shooting, which occurred some
distance from the house, Wilcox
came back to the house and asked
that the sheriff be notified that Wil
cox ha,d killed Henderson. It is un
derstood that warrants have been
issued for both. Henderson was in
an automobile accident some time
ago with Leßoy Wilcox, but he had
recovered from his injuries..
Another Cotton Warehouse
In Prospect for Rome
ROME, Ga., April I.—Directors of
the Georgia-Alabama Warehouse
company have purchased the old Un
ion Oil and Fertilizer company
property at the foot of East Fourth
street from Booze and Formby. The
property is 210 by 215 feet and Is
located on the railroads tracks and is
in proximity to the marketing cen
ter.
President T. B. White, of the Ware
house company, states that the direc
tors are making plans to have the
warehouse ready for the receipt of
cotton for this year’s crop. If it is
possible construction on the first
unit of the new building will be
started at once. Should there be
delay in getting the new building
started the present building, formerly
used by the mill, will be remodeled
for immediate use.
Very likely Ebert’s experience as
a saddle-maker taught him a few
things about staying in one.
If Germany desires a billion of
credit in this country, perhaps she
will offer our notes as collateral.

STATUS OF ARMY
ON RIVER RHINE
WASHINGTON, April I.—American
troops on the Rhine are subject only
to the orders of the president of the
United States as commander-in-chief
of the army, President Wilson wroter
congress today in response to a res
olution of injuiry adopted by the
house.
The American troops and the terri
tory they control still are governed
by the terms of the armistice, the
president said. He disclosed that
the American government has dis
approved plans to have the troops
and the territory placed under the
orders of the Rhineland high com
mission. , , „
Field Marshal Ferdinand Foch has
no authority over the American
troops, the president said. Major
General Allen. commanding the
forces, “has full authority,” Mr. Wil
son added, “to utilize his troops of
the police of the occupied district,
the preservation of order and to repe
any attack which may be made upon
hi The president said the American
forces in Germany on .March -6
“were reported to comprise 726 of
ficers and 16,756 enlisted men.
“The American forces in Germany,
the president wrote, “are at present
operating under the terms of the
original armistice and the subsequent
convention prolonging the armistice.
After the formation of the Rhine
land convention, the president sal ,
the question arose as to whether its
ordinances should govern in the
American sector and the presenta
tives of the state department and
the commanding general of the
American forces in Germany were
instructed as follows:
“ ‘This government cannot admit
jurisdiction of that commission over
portions of Rhenish provinces occu
pied by the American forces. Con
sequently, neither you (representa
tive of the' state department) nor
General Allen should issue any ordi
nances which conflict with or exceed
the terms of the armistice, which
the department (of state) regards as
continuing in force as to the United
States. You should, however, main
tain the closest touch with the high
commission and endeavor insofar as
possible to conform administrative,
regime within territory occupied by
American forces to regime adopted
by high commission for other por
tions of occupied territory. There
is no objection to your sitting in
formally with the high commission
provided you are requested to do so,
nor of continuing your aetviities, as
well as those of your staff, in con
nection with special committees to
handle distribution of coal, etc.
Ordinances, orders, regulations, etc.,
relating to financial and economic
matters, including those similar to
one adopted by high commission,
which it is desired to put into force
in territory occupied by American
forces should be issued by General
Allen as' commanding general of
American forces in Germany, but
only after having first been approved
by you. In general, endeavor to co
operate fully with high commission
and avoid all friction with that body,
while at same time make it perfect
ly clear that you are still operating
under the armistice as before Jan
uary 10, and are in no ifray bound
by the terma of the Rhineland agree
ment or the memorandum of June 13,
1919, defining the relations between
the military authorities and the high
commission.”
Mother, Dying, Tells
Why She Murdered
Her Five Children
ELK CITY, Okla., April I.
Scrawling a word or two at a time,
Mrs. Elmer Cowart, shortly before
she died in a hospital here last Wed
nesday, related how she killed her
five children and then mortally
wounded herself early today in the
tent in which the family lived on
her parents’ farm four miles south
c st of here.
“I was crazy and was tired of
living,” ■ she wrote, unable to speak
e .iuse of th< wound in her throat.
“I know all about it now.”
She was driven to insanity by
loneliness, financial troubles and
sickness, she stated, and used an ax,
a butcher knife and a razor tc end
the lives of her children and herself
soon after her husband had left to
go to work at a mill in this city.
Asking for her clothing, she show
ed hospital attendants where she
had secreted S4O ip currency, all
she possessed. The tent in which
she and her husband lived with their
children had only the ground for a
floor.
As Dead aSsrfio Dodo
Every druggist in town—your druggist and everybody’s drug
■gist has noticed a great falling off in the sale of calorpel. They
all give the same reason. Dodson’s Liver Tone is taking its
place.
“Calomel is dangerous and people know it, while Dodson’s
Liver Tone is perfectly safe and gives better results,” said a
prominent local druggist.
Take “Dodson’s Liver Tone” Instead I
Dodson’s Liver Tone is personally
guaranteed by every druggist who
sells it. A large bottle costs but a
few cents, and if it fails to give easy
relief in every case of liver sluggish
ness and constipation, you have only
to ask for your money back.
Dodson’s Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting, purely vegetable remedy,
harmless to both children and adults.

A March 22.—Rus
sian and Japanese' troops clashed at
Nikolaevsk, a city located at the
mouth of the Amur river, on March

Italy Agrees to
Wilson’s Stand on
Adriatic Question
TRIESTE, April 1. — (By the As
sociated Press.) —The Italian gov
ernment has notified Gabriele
d’Annunzio that It will have to ac
cept President Wilson’s project for
the settlement of the Adriatic ques

ment has been to Fiume, where he
made this declaration known to
d’Annunzio, the insurgent Italian
commander there.
A meeting was held in Flume at
which all of d’Annunzio’s volunteers
were present. At this meeting Al
cetse de Ambris, chief of the d’An-
cabinet, declared the procla
mation of Fiume as an independent
state would be made only in case
such action was necesssary to pro
tect the Italian character of the city,
to guarantee the principles for
which d’Annunzio went to Fuiume
and to insure to that city possession
of the port and railways.

Enter Georgia Race;
President Is Silent
(The Atlanta Journal News Bureau)
623 Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER
WASHINGTON, April I.—Former
Secretary of State Lansing Informs
me he has telegraphed the Georgia
State Democratic committee that he
appreciates the compliment, but Is
not a candidate for president and
does not want his name on the ballot.
The White House so far is inclined
to ignore the placing of the presi
dent's name, and it was indicated no
reply would be made.
State of Texas Is
Enjoined in Red
River Oil Proceeding
WASHINGTON, April I.—Texas
was enjoined today by the supreme
court from issuing any permits af
fecting contested oil lands in the
Red River Valley pending a final de
cision on the boundary proceedings

George Washington’s
Old Home Robbec
RICHMOND, Va., April I.—Police
today discovered that during last
night thieves entered George Wash
ington’s headquarters on East Main
street and robbed the place of many
valuable relics. The building is the
oldest structure in the city and has
been preserved since Revolutionary
days because of its historic impor
tance. In addition to it being
George Washington's headquarters
it also was used by Patrick Henry
as a law office.
Take a spoonful at night and wake
up feeling fine; no biliousness, sick
headache, acid stomach or constipated
bowels. It doesn’t gripe or cause in
convenience all the next day like vio
lent calomel. Take a dose of calomel
today and tomorrow you will feel
weak, sick and nauseated. Don’t lose
a day’s work! Take Dodson’s Liver
Tone instead and fsel fine, full of
vigor and ambition.

Get Back Your Strength
Red Blood Means Old-Time
Vigor, and Pepto-Mangan
Builds Rich, Red Blood
Perhaps you’ve been ill this win
ter—or others in the family have,
and you’ve worn yourself out with
extra burdens. And now your
strength is slow to return.
Week after week you’ve felt too
tired for anything, and have looked
it, too —color bad, eyes dull, and no
enthusiasm.
When you don’t feel well you are
not wpll.' Probably what you need
right now is the good blood tonic,
Pepto-Mangan. Physicians every
where recommend Pepto-Mangan for
run-down, anemic people. Ask your
doctor about i|t. Pepto-Mangan sup
plies the things that blood-starved
people lack. It puts iron and vigor
in the blood. It paints the cheeks
in Nature’s way, and restores the
hearty appetite.
The blood is naturally sluggish in
the Spring and the whole family
would profit by taking Pepto-Man
gan, which tones up and builds up.
It is pleasant-tasting and soon makes
you feel better. Your own druggist
has it ready for your call, and in
both liquid and tablet form, just as
you prefer.
But to be certain that you get the
genuine Pepto-Mangan, ask for it by
the full name, “Gude’s Pepto-Man
gan.” Look for the name “Gude’s”
on the package.— t.Advt.)
