ATJ.VAVj.Hi. on Tralni: FIVE CENTS. Ministers Will Ask That Amusements be Stopped. TROUBLE BEGAN THROUGH MISTAKE Alderman Key Says Important Point Is Missing. Manager of Ponce DeLeon Shows How Innocent Is Sunday at Park. Following! the action of the Evangell. cal Ministers’ Association Monday morning In passing resolutions frowi Ing upon the operation of amusements at Ponce DeLeon park on Sunday, It stated that Sheriff Nelms will be asked by the ministers’ organization to take steps toward preventing the operation of the'amusements on Supday. This action will be taken during the present week. The publication of the action of the ministers has created a great deal discussion on Sunday amusements and various ministers have expressed them selves, their views on the queetion Sunday recreation not being all allke. That the ministers misconstrued the Invitation of the Ponce DeLeon man ngement In Inviting the Sunday schools to enjoy special days at the park. Ir shown clearly by Manager Hugh Car. doza, who calls attention to his pulv- llshed announcements. The Sunday schools were not Invited to visit the park on Sunday, but on certain days In the week to be set aside for their amusement. Cleared by Courte. In answer to the report that the sher Iff will be asked to cloeo the amuse ments on Sunday. Manager- Cardoza re plies that bis company was indicted two year* 1 ago for keeping the park open on Sunday, was tried and declared not guilty, and that under that decision could open, not only the entail amuse ments. but the theater and skating rink, If this was desired. He states that It has never been the Intention of the Company to desecrate the Sabbath; that the park Is not open In Its entirety on Sunday, and It is only Intended to give the public an opportunity to spend a few hours In a cool park and enjoy r few Innocent amusements and diver slons. and that the theater and rink will never be opened on Sundays. Dr. White to Act. Dr. John E. White, pastor of the Second Baptist church and chairman of the law and order committees of both the Baptist Ministers' Association and the Evangelical Ministers’ Conference, stated to The Georgian Monday morn Ing that It was his Intention to aseer tain the exact facts In regard to the operation of amusements at the park on Sunday and to lay the case before Sheriff Nelms-with the request that he proceed to enforce the law, and if necessary arrest every man who was operating an amusement. In this he will co-operate with Rev. A. R. Holder by, pastor of the Moore Memorial Pres, byterlan church, and chairman of the committee on Sabbath observance of the Evangelical Conference. "I see in the operation of the park, said Dr. White, "a growing tendency toward an ’open Sunday.' It Is but a step from that to Sunday baseball. 1 seo no reason why we should not have baseball on Sunday If we are to have these amusements. Atlanta has been known for her high plane of Sunday observance and the atmosphere of law* and order. The operation of amuse ments Is In violation of the state laws, Manager Cardoza's Statement. Manager Cardoza made the following statement, after explaining that but a few amusements were operated Sunday; "tv# sincerely regret the reverend gentlemen should have misconstrued «ur Invitation to the Sunday school children of Atlanta. When we Were preparing to open the amusement re sort for this season, we made the an nouncement through the press several Hines that It was our Intention to tend er complimentary outings to the Sun day school pupils of Atlanta-. Last Sunday morning's papers an nounced that we would follow this In tention by tendering a day to each of i he Sunday schools of the city, offering the children all of the amusements and riding devices with our compliments. This we propose to do, as soon as we con get the names of the oUlcers of the several schools. "We had.no Intention whatsoever of tendering the park on Sunday. Ponce DeLeon is not In real operation on the Nabbath, has never been and never will be so long as we are In control. All games, shows, the Casino, the magnln- rent St. Nicholas Auditorium and -hooting gallery and such amusements ore closed on that day. Ministers Made Mistake. "If the notice published on last Sun day is read over again by the gentle men who have made a mistake. I am sure the error In construction will be discovered. We simply said that commencing this week w# would tender the Sunday ►rhoois of Atlanta a day each at the park. If the gentlemen construed that we offered Sunday schools the use of 'he park on Sunday, It Is not our fault. There was certainly no such Intention. f->r when we do have the children with "* we want to have the park In full "perotlon, and It Is not In operation on Sunday. "The charge that the park manage- Contir.usd on peg* nine. The contract for the. dty’e light le still unsigned, owing to an unexpected hitch over “secondary rates,” or rates granted to consumers for current over a certain amount, and applying to large users of electricity. Every detail had been arranged, sat Isfactorlly It was thought, and the con tracts were ready for signatures, when the hitch arose Monday afternoon. Al derman Key refused to sign the recom mendation that the contract be accept ed because no secondary rates were In eluded, contending that this would give the street railway company an oppor tunity to Increase the secondary rate and virtually charge as much to con sumers as before. To this President P. S. Arkwright replies that the system of making sec ondary rates may cease to bo correct before the contract expires; that he has repeatedly stated that the company will make a substantial reduction In prices, and that the secondary rate ap plies to but a small proportion of the users of current, and that these large consumers have special contracts as to prices. He states also that no question of secondary rates was Included in the resolution asking for competitive bids; that the company had inserted the ob jectionable section at the Instance of Alderman Key. and that the agreement met with the approval of every member of the committee, until, at the last mo ment, Alderman Key made his objec tion. Difference of Opinion. President Arkwright contended that he had agreed to reduce one rate, but that he had not agreed not to raise the other If he saw fit, and Alderman James L. Key contended that the Georgia Railway and Electric Company was trying to "hand the city a lemon" In disguise. “Where does the private consumer get any benefit," asked the alderman, "if one rate Is reduced nml the other Increased to counteract this reduction? This Is certainly not the spirit of tho agreement between the committee and the company, and I am hand* off If any such contract Is made.” When bids were first advertised for, It was stipulated that, with each bid for the city's lighting for one year, threo- year and live-year contracts was also to be submitted a maximum rate to consumers. The Georgia Railway and Electric Company submitted a bid for the five- year contract lower than that of the North Georgia Electric Company, but the latter submitted a maximum rate to consumers lower than the rate of the former. President Arkwright agreed to reduce the maximum rate, saying he did not do so In his bid because of the wording of the advertisement which he objected to. At a subsequent meeting he agreed on a maximum rate of to cents per kilo watt hour for lights and 6 cents for power," ns compared to 12 and 7 cents, the present rate. To Protect Consumers. This was to apply to the primary rate, which Is up to ISO kilowatt hours. It was understood. It Is stated, that the secondary rates would remain the same, and the contract would protect the consumers by stipulating that the secondary rate would not be raleed. The committee adopted a resolution favoring the bid of the Georgia Rail way and Electric Company with this understanding, and Alderman Key, Councilman Terrell and City Attorney Mayaon were appointed as a committee to draft the contract. The sub-committee. met at 2:30 clock Monday afternoon, President Arkwright present. Alderman Key In sisted that when the committee asked maximum rate for consumers it applied as well to one rate os to an other. "1 do not Insist that the secondary rate be reduced, but I do Insist that the consumer be protected by having it stipulated that it shall not raised,” stated the alderman. President Arkwright said he had agreed only to reduce the maximum primary rate. While the matter was under discussion. Alderman Key put on hla hat and left the room. “I saw that Alderman Quilllan and Councllmnn Terrell wanted to sign the paper ns It was. and I left the room, determined not to have anything to do Ith such a contract.” stated the al derman. “The company's present rate Is 12 cents per kilowatt hour up to ISO kilo- watt hours and 6 cents thereafter. The company agrees to reduce the primary- rate from 12 cents to 10 cents. A Possibility. "Suppose a consumer used 400 kilo watt hours. Under the present ar rangement he would pay 12 cents up to 150, which would be 118. He would pay 6 cents for the remaining 250 kilo watt hours, which would be 115. In other words, at preaent he would pay |33 for 400 kilowatt hours. "President Arkwright agrees to re duce the primary rate from 12 cents to 10 cents. Suppose he did this, and then raised his secondary rate from « cent* to 8 cents. The consumer would pay 10 cents for 160 kilowatt hours, which would be 116, and 8 cents for 250 kilowatt hours, which would be *20. In other words, he would pay *35 for 400 kilowatt hours. ••The consumer would have an np- narent reduction of 2 cents, but would pay *35 for 400 kilowatt hours. Instead • *13. as now. If the company agrees reduce the primary rate and not to raise the secondary rate, the consumer has a reduction. Otherwise he has nothing. -Suppose further that the cnntnnnjv after reducing Its maximum primary FIFTH'S FUND is my ur T Atlanta Spirit Re sponds to Cali of The Georgian. Joseph F.

Boise, Idaho, June 4.—Boise turned out a crowd for the real opening of the Haywood trial. Half an hour before the session opened the court room was filled, many ladles—more than at any preceding session—came to hear Haw ley's statement outlining the scope and quantity of evidence the state expects to present against W. D. Haywood. The Jury Is prepared for a siege. They came into court this afternoon In negligee attire, two of them having discarded their collars and cravats. Mrs. Haywood Bnd Mrs. Steve Adams arrived In court Just as It was called to order. At 9:46 o'clock Hawley be gan without flourish. "It Is now my duty." he said In open ing. "to state the theory on which this case rests. 1 shall not go Into details, because we believe that the Jttrv shoo'd weigh the evidence as It Is presented.” After reciting the crime committed at Caldwell, Hawley began dealing with the persons Involved. "I wish to call attention to the charge. The Indictment charges that the defendant, Haywood, exploded the bomb that killed Frank Steunenberg; but we don't expect to prove that he or his associates were present fn Cald well or that he actually threw that bomb." "We w ill show that besides the death of Governor Htunenberg these leaders are responsible for scores of others,” he continued. Harrow objected to this statement, and Judge Wood overruled the ob jection. Hawley Informed the court that the prosecution expected to prove all his assertions. The Inner circle In this organisation sought to perpetuate Itself by employ ing desperate criminals to do murder by violent and unusual methods.” Harrow again objected and Hawley got angry. "I don’t care to call the gentleman down every live minutes," said Dnrrow, "but tny duty to my client compels me to protect his rights.” The court and Darrow discussed the rules governing the opening statements and Darrow Insisted that Hawlex was going far beyond the rule and scope of the Indictment. "We will show that the leaders who constitute the Inner circle," Hawley re sumed. "traded In blood and left a trail of crime throughout the mining region. We will show that this Inner circle did these crimes to levy assessments to get money for their own use. "The Inner circle organized murder Into a trade and mnde assassination a pastime.

Decker, agent for the United States Express Company at Old Point Comfort, robbed the safe In hie office and set fire to the Federal pier, on hlch the office waa located. In a few minutes the pier house was enveloped In flames, and the booming of Are alarm guns called out a large detachment of soldiers. All efforts to save the pier house or its contents were vain.

COVINGTON, GA. The action of the city council In unanimously passing a resolution calling for a bond election for the Issuance of *60,000. of bonds for tho es tablishment of waterworks and street Improvements Is one of tho many evidences of the progressive and growing spirit that moves this thrifty little city. So opposition to these bonds, the citizens being a unit upon meeting the needs which the growth of the town produces. The proposed Issue of bonds for waterworks and street Improve ments Is only one of a series of public Improvements which have been or are soon to be Inaugurated. ' Unusual development In the line of the erection of near buildings has not only taken place ae a result of the thrift and enterprise of Covington's citizens, but also to meet a demand of an Imperative nature by reason of the substantial and steady growth of the city. Within tho last few months the demand for homes has been unprecedented, and pub lic-spirited men have Invested large sums In homes for the many new people who wish to take up their residence In Covington. As many ns thirty or forty cottages of four and live rooms each, suitable for homes for the substantial class of good people coming Into the town, are now In course of erection, and will readily And occupants upon their comple tion. There Is not today a vacant dwelling or business house In the city, and the demand for homes can not be eupplled. The merchants of Covington are doing a large and profitable busi ness; the three banka, as evidenced by late atatementa Issued by them, are In a moat prosperous condition. The cotton mills, consuming annualty tnnre than 26,000 bales of cotton, are enjoying an unusual degree of sub stantial prosperity. Among the many undertakings which are planned for the near fu ture are a *10,000 Carnegie library, a steam laundry, an oil mill, a new Baptist church, etc. The plana for the new Baptist church have been drawn and accepted, and will represent an Investment of *15.000. Sub scriptions are now being taken for the construction of a public audito rium at Academy Springs, one of the city's delightful park resorts. The Farmers’ Union Warehouse and Supply Company, representing an Investment of perhaps *16,000, has Just been organized and a char ter applied for. During the last half of the present year It le expected that remarka ble development will take place in end around Covington. Magnificent water powers lie but a short distance from the city, and It Is highly prob able that some of them will be developed befdre the end of the present year. There are some ir>,0M-borse power available In this Immediate vi cinity. When these valuable water falls are harnessed the manufactur ing Interests of Covington and vicinity will certainly be stimulated, and the proposed electric railway connecting Covington with Purterdalo. Ox ford, Walnut Grove. Mansfield, Newborn and other neighboring towns and villages will be a reality as a natural result sooner or later.
