AT BIG BANQUET
TAFT TELLS JAPS
THAT WAR IS HELL
Secretary Surrounded By
Nobility in Japanese
Capital.
Toklo, Oct. 1.—A banquet In honor
of Secretary of War Taft was given
jointly by the municipality of the capl
tal and the Chamber of Commerce last
night. The guests Included the mem
bers of the cabinet and about 200 mem
here of the nobility and Americans.
Among Mr. Taft’s suite were Ambas
sador O'Brien and the members of the
embassy.
Mr. Taft, in responding to the speech
of welcome, said In part:
"The word ’war’ Is not allowable In
diplomatic correspondence but those
who are not diplomats can talk war. '
do not hold that war Is entirely un
justifiable when International griev
ances can. not otherwise be redressed.
But war Is hell and only a great cause
which can not be settled by diplomacy
justifies it.
■”A war between America and Japan
would be a crime against civilisation.
Why wish for war, which would stop all
Japan has undertaken to rejuvenate
her ancient neighbor to whom she Is
sending the greatest statesmen In the
world? I am confident that Prince Ito
and the Japanese government In their
Korean .policy are making for Justice
and civilization. Why stop or delay
the reform In Korea?”

SIMS MAY FACE
A STATE WARRANT
After paying hi* debt to society In
the shape of a term In the federal
prison of. about four and one-half
years, llallhinn Sim*, who pleaded
guilty In 1903 to eteallng about 390,000
from the Capital City National Bank,
Is n free man.
He was releaaed from the penlten
tlary ahortly after midnight Sunday
morning, entered a closed cab and
was driven—somewhere. Just where
lie Is nr what hla plana for the future
are. none of thoee Intimate with him
will say.
Sims’, release from the prison was
different from that of most prisoners.
Ills term legally ended at midnight on
September 28. So when the clock ush
ered In September 29, his sentence had
expired. It la customary to hold pris
oners Who are leaving the city until
train time and see that they are placed
safely aboard trains for their destina
tion. If they have a fine In addition
to the prison sentence and have not
the money with which to pay It, they
are taken to the clerk of the federal
< ourf when they take oath to that ef
fect.
But as Sims resided In Atlanta and
bad no line and was also anxious to
escape reporters. Warden Moyer al
lowed him to leave the penitentiary
a half hour after midnight.
So nt that hour Hallman Sim* re
gained hi# Identity and assumed his
name Instead of "Number 633,” after
having lost It for four and a half
years. Slnco he ha* been In prison hla
conduct has been excellent and he re
ceived ill the tlmd allowed oft for
good behavior.
There le still an Indictment hanging
over Sims’ head In the state court*
charging him with embexxllng money
from the Captttat City Bank while It
was a state Institution. So far no
warrant has been Issued for hi* arrest
tinder this charge. When asked Mon
day concerning the matter Solicitor
tieneral Hill said nothing had yet been
done In the matter. That l» all he
would say about the caae. It Is gen
trail, believed that the state Indict
ment against Sims will be nol pressed.

ALL CITY’S DEBTS
WILL BE SETTLED
-Alderman E. C. Peter*, chairman of
the^financo committee, has made an
other atatement to the same effect aa
the one given to a representative of The
Georgian about a week ago—that all
the debt* contracted by the adminis
tration this year will be paid this year
and the city would etart with a clean
slate next January.
At first It was feared that the ad
ministration next year would he bur
dened with debt* contracted by the ad
ministration this year, but a careful
study of the situation' has revealed the
fact that this would hot prove the case.
Alderman Peter* does not share the
fear of others that the administration
will be embarrassed next year by the
loss of whisky licenses. In the an
nouncement published In The Georgian
Met week to the effect that a raise In
water rates is being considered by the
administration, Alderman Peters Is
quoted as saying that this would not be
necessary, as, the loss from whisky
licenses could be made up in other
ways.
