MUNICIPAL BILL KILLED IN SENATE; DEBATE IS BITTER After an hour and ahalf of fervid debate, in tvhich charges of “So cialism” were bandied to and fro be tween the speakers, the first of the Municipal league bills, providing for public ownership of public utilities, ■was killed by the senate Monday afternoon. The second bill, which provides for the creation of a state hydro-electric commission to have charge of the development of water powers, is still in the hands of the committee on constitutional amend ments. The advent on the floor of the sen ate of the first of the Municipal league bills was the signal for a sharp fight. The constitutional amendments committee reported it favorably, and Senators Smith, of the Seventh; Pittman, of the Forty second. and Keafi of the Sixteenth, immediately arose to champion the measure. They were opposed in de bate by Senators Glenn, of the Forty-third, and Barrett, of the Thir ty-first, both of whom insisted that the measure was pernicious. The bill provided that municipali ties, counties and otner political di visions should be authorized to ex ceed the constitutional limit of in debtedness in issuing bonds for the purpose of acquiring by condemna tion or otherwise all kinds of pub lic utilities, such ag electric power plants, street railways, gas plants and similar enterprises. The consti tution at present limits municipali ties to 7 per cent of their assessed valuations In issuing bonds for any purpose whatsoever. The advocates of the bill declared that the proposal was in line with < e most progressive thougne of the age; that it followed out the theory m. Democrocy in allowing the pub lic to own and operate the utilities on which it is most dependent for its existence. They insisted that if this measure was Socialistic, then pub lic operation of schools is Socialistic, as well as public operation of water works and roads. The opponents of the measure as serted that the development of elec tric power would be absolutely stop ped by the provisions of the bill; that municipalities would be allow ed to increase their bonded debt to the point where public securities would be practically worthless and that the whole tendency of the bill was toward Socialism. A wide divergence of opinion was manifested when the roll was called and many of the senators arose to explain their votes. Possibly the sharpest line of demarcation that has yet been shown in the upper branch of the legislature came to light as the vote progressed. The chamber was crowded with members of the house who were interested in the dis position of the bill and the progress of the vote was watched with un abated interest. The final vote was 27 to 16 to disagree to the report of the committee, which was favorable to the passage of the bill. It is understood that the second bill, authorizing the creation of a state hydro-electric commission, will not be pressed further at this ses sion, although its advocates declare that they will have it introduced in 1921. Earlier in the afternoon’s session a bill to provide for the appointment of an agent in the department of commerce and labor to direct the en forcement of the labor immigration laws, had been killed. A measure by Representative Brown, of Clarke, to provide for the designation of three state depositories in cities of more than 15,000 population, had been passed. Steel Plant Planned For Walker County By New Corporation The International Steel and Motors corporation has been licensed by S. G. McLendon, as secretary of state, to offer its securities to the invest ing public of Georgia, should its pro moters see fit; though they assert that they intend the stock for a few selected persons, preferably connect ed with steel and iron manufactories Plans for the corporation, it was announced, include a great plant for the manufacture of steel and iron in Walker county, near Estelle, to de velop the mineral resources of north Georgia, northeastern Alabama and east Tennessee. Speaking of Georgia’s resources in this respect Harry L. Brittain, of New York, president of the new com pany, said: “Today Georgia is producing almost as much Iron ore as Pennsylvania, but where Pennsylvania has 132 blast furnaces in operation, turning out 16,500,000 tons of pig iron a year, Georgia produces none. “Ohio, Indiana and Illinois do not produce iron ore in any quantity, yet these three states produce 15,000,000 tons of pig iron a year. Since their local supply has been exhausted, the blast furnaces of the north are com pelled to haul their ore and lime stone more than l,(f00 miles, and their coal situation is nearly as bad. These conditions, together with the new increased freight rates, will en able northwest Georgia to produce pig iron sl4 to $lB a ton less than Pittsburg, or any other market in the north. This is hard to believe but nevertheless true. “Freight on steel products from Pittsburg to Atlanta and other points in Georgia, ranges from $17.70 to $l4O a ton, so when you add together the sl4 difference in production cost on pig iron, and the minimum freight charge $17.70, you will see that these two items alone will enable north west Georgia to produce steel al ready delivered in the state S3O a ton less than Pittsburg can, or Birming ham, since Birmingham charges Pittsburg rate, and must continue to do so in accordance with the very recent decision of United States su preme court. “Thirty dollars a ton on 200,000 tons amounts to $6,000,000 a year, that is, freight alone, to say noth ing of the manufacturer’s profit, which amounts to more than the freight. Six million will almost build and finance a plant of that ca pacity.” Officers and directors are Henry L. Brittain, New York: H. Abner Dean, Rome; John Dowling, Chatta nooga; R. A. Denny, of Georgia; James M. Craig, Birmingham; K. L. Jones, Atlanta, and Walter M. Mas sey, Macon.

Y. “Gunmen” Stage Three Odd Raids In One Busy Day’s Work NEW YORK —Fourteen crap shoot ers were held up by nine masked men early yesterday morning in the cellar of an apartment house on the east side of Fifteenth avenue, be tween Forty-second and Forty-third streets, Brooklyn, and robbed of about $4,500 in cash and jewelry valued at $3,000. In making their well-planned raid and escape, the bandits practically put the whole block of thickly populated apart ment houses under martial law. The victims were lined up against a wall by five of the men while the others guarded entrances of the cellar and drove residents of the block indoors. Louis Rubinowitz, a furrier, of No. 4216 Fifteenth avenue, directly op posite the scene of the robbery, at tempted to give the alarm when the shouts of the gamblers attracetd his attention. He was forced to retreat into his house by one of the armed robbers. Other residents of the block . went to their windows and were ordered back by the bandits’ sentries. After the robbers had escaped into the nearby entrance of the West End subway on the cityward side, Pa trolmen Joyce and Reiss, of the Parkville station, were summoned. Commandeering a passing automobile they raced the subway train to the Pacific street station, four miles away. They lost the race and the men presumably escaped into Man hattan. Bandits Interrupt Diners Six gunmen held up Peter Men edis’ restaurant at No. 2235 Eighth avenue early yesterday morning and fled with a cash register containing SSOO. Thirty diners were lined up against the wall at the point of auto matics, but nothing was taken from them. Menedis’ brother, Thomas, told them, the police say, that an hour before the hold-up the gunmen ate a meal in the place and, when paying their check, asked them if the res taurant was a paying proposition. Thomas says he told them that the Takes Nap on Telephone Wires; Can’t Say How He Got There NEW YORK. —Policeman Bush, of the Newark police department heard a hearty snore shortly before dawn recently at Fleming avenue and Providence street, Newark. . He pinched himself to make certain he hadn’t fallen asleep, and then he heard it again, gathering volume as it pro eeded and winding up in a tre mendous, ear-shattering snort. The policeman looked in all the areaways, in all the doorways behind the lampposts and searched carefully all over the sidewalk. He even pried up a manhole cover, but every time he would tell himself there was no one around who could possibly snore the snore came again and always louder than before. “Spooks!” said the cop to himself. He looked around, somewhat fear fully, and finally his gaze turned up ward. And there, forty feet from the ground, he saw a man stretched across the telephone wires, a few feet away from one of the poles, sound asleep. The cop was afraid to wake him. so he sent for the reserves and they came with a life net. Bald Eagle Has Wild Ride on Salmon’s Back, Sailors Say SEATTLE. —Every man aboard the schooner Roosevelt, from the master to the cook, in from a recent voyage, said they would take an oath that they saw a huge bald eagle take a wild ride on a salmon’s back in the stretch of water between Cape Mudge and Seymour Narrows, Gulf of Georgia. And they brought the eagle to Seattle to prove it. The Roosevelt was on its way to Seattle from the fishing banks in Hecate Strait. Shortly after passing Seymour Narrows members of the crew said they noticed a bald eagle flying close to the water near the vessel. As they watched the bird skimming near the surface a spring salmon, estimated to weigh about twenty pounds, leaped clear of the swift-moving current. Quick as a flash the eagle drove his sharp tal ons into the fish’s back. There was a great splash as the fashioned way. The girls have been doing his all summer for the sake of coolness and comfort. At least, they say that was the reason. But now when skirts are to be further abbreviated and it’s still necessary to climb steps and board street cars —well, bare knees would be inevit able, and that wouldn’t do, you know. So say the two pretty models from a Whitehall street store, at any rate. place had a great patronage and that Sturday’s business had been unusual ly good. The six bade him “good morning” and departed. An hour later, Thomas says, they returned and, while three of them held him and the thirty diners at bay, the oth ers carried the cash register to a limousine at the curb. Four hours later the register, battered and emp ty, was found at Broadway and six tieth street. Gunmen Visit Baths Five smartly dressed young ban dits drove up in an automobile to the Lenox Baths, at One Hundred and Fifteenth street and Seventh avenue, at 5 o’clock yesterday morn ing and stole eleven deposit boxes in which patrons had stored their valuables. In their hurry they left more than 150 deposit boxes behind and obtained an aggregate plunder of between $2,000 and $3,000, where as the total valuables on deposit was estimated at about ten times that amount. Edward Handler, of 1154 Washing ton avenue, the Bronx, the assistant cashier, was on duty in the office when the five men entered the place. They ranged from 20 to 25 years in age, according to Handler, and were all unmasked and smooth shaven. When he approached the window of the office door, through which the business of the establishment is done,. Handler found several re volvers pointing at him. He threw up his hands when commanded, then opened the door and was marched with a revolver near the small of his back to a large room on the ground floor in which scores of pa trons were asleep on couches. Morris Hochman, an employe in the dormitory, rose sleepily when the assistant cashier and the two ban dits entered. One of the bandits struck him on the jaw and Hochman rolled over on the floor. After this incident all was quiet in the dormi tory. The bandits escaped before the alarm was spread among the 200 bathers. Several of the cops held the net under the wires and Bush climbed the pole and poked the sleeper with his club. The man stirred uneasily, and muttered something about taking an other cf the same. Bush prodded him again and the sleeper turned an uncertain eye upon him. “How’d you get up there?” demand ed the policeman. “Darned if I know,” said the sleeper, “got a drink?” The man refused to come down, but Bush prodded him long and vigorous ly with the end of ms nightstick, and at length the sleeper lost his hold on the wires and fell with a roar into the net. He was then transfer red to an ambulance and taken to the Newark City hospital, where he gave his name as William Merkel, but re fused to give his address. He had no idea of. the circumstances under which he dlimbed the pole and went to sleep across the wires. He didn’t care to discuss it, in fact; he would only say he had been out “with the boys” and he felt rotten. I big springer dived, taking the eagle beneath the surface. All hands rushed to the rail to watch the struggle. Three times, they said, the fish and the bird disappeared in the water while the Rooseveit steered a course close behind them. Finally the eagle loosened its hold on the salmon and flopped over on the surface of the water completely exhausted. It had put up a game fight, but had lost its prey. The crew of the Roosevelt pulled the bird aboard with a bait hook. The eagle was nearly drowned, but on deck it soon recovered and showed fight. While the battle between the bird and the fish was in progress two other eagles, the Roosevelt’s men said, flew around the vicinity scream ing loudly. Captain Barney Peder sa npresented the captured eagle to one of the local public parks. RACE NARROWS TO SMITH AND •WATSON ISSUE As the senatorial campaign pro gresses and Senator Hoke Smith makes satisfactory headway with the detailed organization of his forces throughout the state in his canvass for re-election,,, it is his purpose to devote more and more time to stump speaking. His visit to Conyers and Covington Tuesday is in line with this policy, and it may be stated that his out-of-town appointments will be increased as the date of the primary draws near. The Smith headquarters, in the Piedm.ont hotel, have received scores and scores of letters, sugesting speeches by the senator. It will be, impossible for him to accept all these invitations, but he expects to accept as many of them as possible. In addition to the speeches at Con yers and Covington Tuesday, Sen ator Smith will deliver tw r o other ad dresses during the week. He will speak at Vienna, Dooly county, Thursday morning, and at Cordele, Crisp county, Thursday afternoon. He will return to Atlanta Friday morning and remain throughout the remainder of the week in Atlanta. Next Monday, August 16, Senator Smith will visit Dawson, Terrell county, and Shellman and Cuthbert. Randolph county. His speech at Dawson will be made at 11 o’clock in the morning; at 2:30 o’clock he will speak at Shellman, and at 4:30 o’clock in Cuthbert. » The evidence is abundantly cumu lative that the senatorial campaign, notwithstanding the candidacy of three aspirants, is in fact a race be tween Senator Smith and Mr. Wat son. In these circumstances, the Smith leaders are gratified but not surprised that Democrats all over Georgia, without regard to past fac tional affiliations, are aligning them selves behind the candidacy of the senator. They point to mountains of mail from practically every coun ty in' the state in confirmation of their analysis of the situation. There are scores and scores of let ters and telegrams, strengthened by word of mouth reports, that the en trance of Governor Dorsey has not aroused the response that his advis ers had anticipated. Indeed, accord ing to Smith headquarters, they have received direct and first hand ad vices from hundreds of Democrats who supported Attorney General Palmer in the presidential primary, but who will vote and work for Senator Smith in the current cam paign. There have been as many, or more, letters from men who hereto fore have supported Governor Dor sey who In the present race are not disposed to follow him because they realize that a vote for him is cal culated only to help Mr. Watson. The Dorsey men, in many counties, it appears from reports received by the senator’s leaders, have united with the Smith men in order to - make doubly certain the redemption, of their counties or to certainly insure the defeat of Mr. Watson. As an evidence of the failure of Governor Dorsey’s candidacy to make headway, it is pointed out that his formal announcement created even less excitement than did the preliminary announcement of his purpose to be a candidate. It was an open secret among mem bers of the legislature yesterday and again Tuesday that the governor’s platform had occasioned no comment even among the men in the legisla ture counted as his closest friends and most ardent supporters—net that these friends and supporters were displeased with the platform, but rather that <hey have awakened to the fact that the governor’s can didacy is doomed to failure. They have realized that the people throughout the state regard the gov ernor’s candidacy as calculated only to strengthen Democracy’s ancient enemy—a realization resting on re ports that have come to them from their homes. They deplore the situa tion, and many of them, it is stated, are privately hoping that Governor Dorsey will retire from the race. Old Gold Brick Game Is Worked in Kansas WICHITA, Kan.—The old gold j brick game recently was revived here, successfully, from the view point of the swindlers, according to a story told local police by the vic tim, a pawnbroker. The pawnbroker said a stranger called at his store and said he would open a tailor shop here. His visits were repeated and he and the pawn broker became friends. Then, one day while the stranger was present, a man came in who said he had some gold he wanted to sell. Stranger No. 1 said he knew a broker in Hutch inson w’ho would buy it and proceed ed to call up the Hutchinson broker by phone. Later the broker from Hutchinson, representing himself as Max Cohen, appeared. The brick of gold, contained in a black box, was produced. It was tested and found to be gold. The pawnbroker and Cohen agreed to buy it for $6,500, the pawnbroker putting up $4,500 and Cohen $2,000. Upon opening the box during the absence of Cohen and the man who sold the brick, the pawnbroker found it con tained a brass gold-colored brick, but not the one he had tested. Cohen, who invested $2,000 in the brick, never has called since. Search at Hutchinson showed there was no licensed broker there by the name of Max Cohen. More Money Needed To Combat Smugglers WASHINGTON. Aug. 10. — (By the Associated Press.) —Liquor smuggl ing into the United States has reached such proprotions that it has brought In its wake a large illegal traffic in other commodities, it was learned today at the treasury de partment. Officials have become so concerned that they are considering a rearrangement of the government’s coastal criminal chasing arms, with a view’ to concentrating on what they described as a menacing situation. The customs service, charged with protecting the country from smug glers, has found itself “wholly in adequate” to meet the situation, ac cording to Assistant Secretary Shouse, of the treasury, who is head of that government branch. He de clared the custom officials are handi capped “both in men and in money because of a refusal by the last con gress to appropriate additional funds with which the service could be expanded.” » Russian Crown Jewels Smuggled Into England LONDON, Aug. 9. —The Russian crown jewels, worth fabulous sums, have been smuggled into England by the bolsheviki, and British dealers have been warned about them, ac cording to a report circulated to day: The jewels include the czar’s crown and the wonderful diamonds and necklaces worn by the czarina. It is said that all the court jewels w’ere placed in the hands of bolshevik agents, who sent them to Amsterdam, London, Constantinople and New York, with orders to sell them and return the money to the soviet war chest. The British learned of the plan through a dealer who had long been a resident of Petrograd and who had been approached by a bol shevik agent. In the czar’s scepter was the fa mous Orloff diamond, weighing 194 3-4 carats. The czar's collection of rubies is said to have been the finest in the world. Costs SSO to '“Shimmy” In This Illinois Town CHICAGO. —The town of Normal, the home of the Illinois State Nor mal college, where 1,991 students are learning how to become teachers, has put down its foot on the jazzy saxophone “shimmy.” An ordinance prohibiting the danc ing of the “shimmy” in public has been passed by the village board, which provides arfest for the cul prits, with a fine of not less than SSO for each and every offense. He’s Tobacco King, But Doesn’t Smoke Candy-making millionaires who never use candy and distillers and brewers who never use their own product have an interesting colleague here in the person of Benjamin N. Duke, tobacco king. Mr. Duke does not smoke. When asked whether he pre ferred pipe, cigar or cigarette, the North Carolinian, whose ven tures in the tobacco-raising and manufacturing marts have made him many millions, replied: “I have never used tobacco in any form in my life And have never had any desire to do so, although I have been connected with the cultivation and manufac boy.” CROP MARKETING IS FACILITATED BY SENATE BILL Officials of the state and national farmers’ union are rejoicing over the passage by the house, on Monday afternoon, of the senate bill authoriz ing the formation of co-operative organizations for the purpose of mar keting farm crops. The bill was backed by the farmers’ union, the federal bureau of mar kets, the state bureau of markets, the pecan growers, the fruit grow ers, the melon growers and the farm ing interests generally. It passed the house without a single opposing vote, though a few senators fought it in the senate. The bill authorizes the Incorpora tion without paid-in capital stock of co-operative marketing concerns, pro vided the same are to be conducted without profit. It authorizes the payment of patronage dividends to farmers marketing their crops through a co-operative concern. It places restrictions upon tne voting power of majority stockholders in such concerns, and likewise restric tions upon the amount of profits which may be set aside for the bene fit of stockholders. In addition to this bill, the house on Monday afternoon 1 passed the sen ate bill known as ”the money-shark bill, placing lenders of money in amounts up to S3OO under the juris diction of the state bank superinten dent and imposing drastic regulations upon the conduct of their business. Among other things, the bill cuts the maximum monthly interest rate on salary assignments and other forms of money-shark loans from 5 to 3% per cent. Other senate bills which were passed by the house at the Monday afternoon session were as follows: To provide for the appointment of alumni trustees on the board of the Georgia School of Technology. To allow six months for the valida tion of county bond issues, in place of the present requirement that they be validated in twenty days after the ascertainment of the vote in bond elections. To provide protection for the bee industry in Georgia by regulating the importation of bee colonies. To provide for the domestication of foreign corporations by petition to the superior court.

IS PROBING THE CLOSING OF COTTON MILLS WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—The de partment of justice is conducting an Investigation Into the textile indus try to determine whether closing of cotton and woolen mills is due to a conspiracy by manufacturers to con tinue high prices, it was learned to day at the office of Attorney General Palmer. Mr. Palmer, a week ago, sent into New England an agent who now is directing the investigation. District attorneys have been instructed give him all assistance. Information reaching <#rtiy the justice department but also experts in the bureau of markets and the commerce department, officials said, indicates that manufactures now are closing their mills to prevent stocks of cotton and woolen cloths from pil ing up. This would create a short age and higher prices when the fall demand begins. Officials here today were studying the closing of cotton mills at Fall River, Mass. Cotton mills in Geor gia and North and South Carolina are planning to reduce working hours next week, according to reports reaching officals of the bureau of markets. The closing down process seems to be striking textile mills in all parts of the country. Thousands of workmen are being laid off or dis charged. Idle w’oolen spindles July 1 num bered 949,066, according to commerce department reports. Idle worsted spindles totaled 757,973. The number of idle spindles has been increasing for more than a year. July 1 showed 42 per cent idle; June 1, 23.1 per cent, and May 1, 11.5 per cent. Manufacturers say they are forced to close for lack of orders. A Rochester, N. Y., ready-to-wear clothing maker recently sent a cir cular to all retail dealers stating he would be unable this fall to supply certain kinds of clothing. This, he said, was because he was unable to obtain cloth. This manufacturer named a big ■woolen manufacturing concern which recently closed its doors for “lack of orders.” The clothing manufacturer said he previously placed large orders with this same wool cloth manufacturer. Cotton cloth manufacturers in the past year paid .enormous dividends. Several Fall River mills paid more than 10 per cent for the four-month period just ended, according to re ports reaching officials here. During the preceding nine months the same mills paid a total of 25 per cent. NO INFORMATION RECEIVED ON GOVERNMENT PROBE No Information bearing on the in vestigation now being conducted by the department of justice into the alleged arbitrary closing down of cot ton and woolen mills in order to shorten the supply and Induce high er prices hhad been received Tues day at the office of L. J. Baley, chief of the department of justice for the southeastern states. “This office,” said Mr. Bailey, "will take prompt action In all cases were there appears to be a violation of the Lever act.” Ask Higher Valuation For Cotton Cargoes WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.—Repre sentatives of southern cotton ex changes conferred today with the shipping board in an effort to obtain a higher valuation for cotton ship ments on government vessels in the event of loss and injury. At present, it was stated, SIOO is the highest valuation permitted and shippers are seeking to value bales of cotton as high as $250. The question of providing for a waiver of demurrage charges when vessels cannot be unloaded because of congestion or other circumstances not the fault, of the consignee was also considered. Adoption of a uniform cotton bill of lading was discussed at the con ference and it is understood that cotton exchanges will be asked to submit suggestions for a model bill of lading. / Spokesmen for the cotton ex changes declared that the board promised immediate consideration for their problems and indicated a will ingness to help them In every pos sible way. Among the representatives from the south were R. C. Fulbright, of the Houston Cotton Exchange; F. G. Riordan, of the Savannah Cotton Ex change; R. C. Dickerson, Texas Cot ton Exchange, and A. M. Mayne, New’ Orleans Cotton Exchange.
