By a vote of 13 to 6. council Monday afternoon adopted resolutions by Al dermen Beutell proteatlng against the passage of a state prohibition bill and memorallslng the general assembly to vote against the measure. The resolutions were as follows "Whereas, There Is pending In the general aasembly of Georgia a proposl tlon to place this state under a'law prohlbltlng the sale and manufacture of liquors, beer and other Intoxicating drinks, and, "Whereas, Such a law would Injurs this city very much nnd tend to' de press Its growth and prevent the de sired expansion In population, and, "Whereas, Tho taxes from such sale and manufacture are very large and are necessary to meet the Increasing ex penses and demands of our city, and the loss of such revenue would serious ly cripple the departments, In every re spect, and demoralise the financial ap portlonments, "Therefore, be It resolved, by the mayor and general council, That the senator from this district, and the representatives from this county are Dt-I-v r,.,|m'Slcil to vote ngnlnst "old legislation, nnd use their Influence to defeat same. "Be It further resolved. Thnt the clerk of councll'fonvard a copy of these reso lutions to said senator and representa- tlves. "6e It further resolved, Thst the gen eral assembly be memorallxed to vote against said legislation on ths further ground that the preaent law, by which tho sale of whlaky la regulated by local option, la acceptable to the people of the state, and haa been In force for many years, giving general satisfaction end meeting all the demands of the temperance counties, and Is democratic In that It gives the different counties the privilege of local solf-government.' How They Voted. Those voting for the resolution were: Alderman Holland, Hlrsch, Peters, Key, Curtis and Beutell and Councilman Huddleston, Pomeroy, Pearce, Styron, Grant, Hancock and Roberta—It. Against resolutions: Councilman Ter. rell, Baskin, Martin, Mangum, Longlno and Harman. A caloric dlacusston was precipitated when the resolutions were Introduced, the merits and demerits of prohibition being hurled back and forth. A motion to -table was lost, as was »l»o a motion to refer to a committee. < ouncllman Martin thought It was a matter for the legislature, and council •hould not Inject Its views there. Coun cilman Terrell said .prohibition would make the city flourish as never before; that the people would have more money, and also the city; that the po lice force could be cut down. He cited *«"•»» as an example of how well pro. hlbltlon worked In a material way. Mr. Bautall’a Views. Alderman Beutell spoke In defense of hie resolution. He said he had no de- e re to bring on a prohibition discus- eion. .'View this matter from a practical standpoint," said the alderman, "and I no reason why the expression of this council on the Question should not go to the legislature. It Is recognised as a legal traffic, and why can wo not i- .. 11 t° be sold here Instead of hav- ing It shipped from outside states?" .„_ ou ._ nc lman Longlno made a strong speech, In which he declared prohlbl- ,. 2? ,. w *f * ur ® to come, and that ths whisky dealers might as well pack their ii- .?'!!*! and K*t ready to vacate.

That Is a question tho-clerks of .the Piedmont are pondering over, nnd so for they have not found a solution to ths puizle. All sorts of things and valuables have been left In rooms at the Piedmont by forgetful guests. Almost dally guests report at the office that they left so- and-so In their rooms and "please get It.” But Monday the limit In the lost line was reached. A well dressed elderly man asked If set of false teeth had been found In nny of the rooms. ■ None of the clerks thought nny phony Ivories had been piped. The elderly man wasn't quite sure about losing his chewing appara tus In the Piedmont, but he knew he had loat his teeth. He said he had either left them In the Piedmont or In Birmingham hotel. '•When were you In Birmingham?^ asked a clerk. „ j .. "Two days ago,” quietly replied the elderly man as he fished about In his pockets for the missing teeth. But he didn’t remember If he had used them since he left Birmingham. A general alarm was sent out. among the hotel employees for the missing teeth, but up to a late hour they had not been located. In the meantime an urgent wire was sent to Birmingham for the hotel folks there to get on the trail of the Ivories. S.TAPP GOES WEST TO LEM Wants to Know Why John D. Is Not In Jail.

Were you ever a passenger on a trol ley car that started one way and ar rived somewhere else, and that In the middle of the night? That doesn't happen often, but It did happen a night or two ago, and It alt came about through a green motorman, a new conductor and a street car that didn’t know Its own route. Car No. umpsteen started out Peach tree Just before midnight. The motor- man had Just been transferred from the Copenhtll accommodation and the con ductor was a recruit from ths Luckte street Jerkwater. Neither knew the north side beyond the Piedmont. And the oar was bound to Ponce DeLeon. Huddenly the motorman awung to his brake, stopped ths car and looked around him. Gee! where am I at?" he Inquired of the darkness. But tt)e darkness an swered not. "Say, ain't we passed that road where e turn out?" the motorman asked the conductor. "You can search me." said ths man behind the punch. "I ain't no street di rectory." "Let’s ask the passenger," was the unanimous vote. The lone passenger seemed surprised. “I'm a stranger In town," he said, and all I know Is that I want to get to Ponce and the Boulevard, and do It quick. I didn't think I had to play guide for a personally conducted trolley party." About that time an Incoming car passed on the other track and was lulled. •Turn your trolley and back up about a couple of blocks," said the motorman. "Turn to your right, stop when you get to the end of the track. And your way home and get a transfer back to Copen- hill.' Clang! Clangl RACERESULTS. SHEEPSH EAD BAY.

Found—A Seat He Didn't Keep A new member of the supreme court bench came pretty near being self-ln ducted to" a seat on that high tribunal one day recently; The court was In session. A few In tereated attorneys sat In the appointed place. Reporter Stevens u mersed In his work. Sheriff Vaughan guarded the dignity of the court from his place directly in front of the Jus tices. Justice Beck had slipped from his seat on the extreme left for a few min utea. An attorney was delivering plea In most emphatic and declama tory style. It was the usual quiet and serene proceedings of the highest tribunal In the state when dry civil matters were being argued. Then something happened. A dapper, well-dressed, clean-cut young fellow pushed through the swinging door, and stood for a moment looking about. Evidently It was some thing new to him. His glance turned toward the declaiming attorney, whose back was to the visitor. For a moment or so he stood quietly, and then stalked toward the left end of the bench, where he law Justice Beck's comfortable rocker vacated. The Jus tice turned Interested eyes on the vis itor; Reporter Stevens watched him with horror-etruck gaze. But Sheriff Vanghan did not lose his presence of mind. Just as the visitor swung around to take Justice Beck's seat, the sheriff seised him by the arm, and escorted the dazed young man to the door. "Why, what'a tho matter?" he gasp ed, as the swinging door shut behind them. "Young man, that Is the supreme court of Georgia, and you were about to violate all precedent by taking the seat of a Justice, while the court was In session." replied Sheriff Vaughan sternly. "Goodness!" said the young fellow, his face chalky with fear, "I didn't know. I heard that fellow making a speech, and thought I'd go round In front where I could hear him better." And the court moved on In Its se rene and dignified way.

Boise, Idaho, July 2.—The amazing conspiracy of Pinkertons working for ths mine owners to disrupt and destroy the Western Federation of Miners was exposed today, when the defense In the Haywood trial resumed Its startling series of disclosures. Pinkerton operatives secured admis sion to the local unions as members by falsehood, bribery or any means within their power, and then acted as spies, reporting the secrets of the union to Superintendent McPsrtland In the Den ver office. This conspiracy proved a boomerang, however, when Clarence Dorrow offered the Identical reports sent by these men as evidence and had them Identified un der oath by Morris Friedman, former aecretary to McPartlond. . Some of the Pinkerton operatives who could not manage to get Into the unions were mndo deputy sheriffs. One of these wus J. N. Londoner, now as sistant auperlntendent In the Denver office. In his report ho wrote; "I was made n deputy ns soon as 1 showed my face and was told to kill any union man or" sympathizer who spoke to me. There Is strong talk now of taking tho union leaders out of the bull pen mid hanging them.” This was at Victor, Colo., nnd was datod June S, 1904. One of the most Interesting docu ments read by Dafrow was an original letter by McPartland to General Man ager Banks, of the New York agency of the Pinkertons. In this letter Mo- Portland declared that Peabody hod acted to please tho mine owners and ths Citizens' Alliance, and that he wns friendly with them and the militia, but no one would venture to say that ho had obeyed ths constitution. Ho said Peabody and Governor Adams were good friends of ths Pinkertons and the mins owners. At 9:30 o'clock Max Mallch, of Den ver, accused by Orohard of proposing to dynamite a "scab" boarding house at Globevllle, Colo., was called to the witness stand by Attorney Richardson, In defense. Mallch said hs was Introduced to Or chard by A. W. Gratios, a Pinkerton agent. Orchard spent much of his time In Mallch's saloon. One evening Orchard called him out of doors and proposed that they blow the Olobe Hotel off the earth and get rid of the scSbi. Mallch says he told Orchard hs would not stand for any thing of that sort, and Orchard said he was Joshing. Mallch denied any knowl edge of Orchard'* allegation that they stole giant powder from tbs Union Pa tio powder house. Mallch related that Orchard came to him and offered to blow up the com pany (tore, which was Mallch's princi pal competitor. He also swore that Or. chard and Adame, who lived near him, were poverty-stricken at the time Or chard claims he was able to get all the money he wanted from Haywood. Mallch told that Orchard threatened to kill Steunenberg. Capitalists Are Given a Drive and Luncheon. ED F BUCHANAN TALKS OF SOUTH of New Yorkers En joy Stay at Norcross and Atlanta., 1 EWELL L. JETT.
