JONES TELLS OF TRIP
MADE TO ATLANTA
IN TURNER OASE
Special to The Georgian.
Chattanooga. Tenn., Oct. 7.—J. E.
Jones; of Atlanta, Is the only witness of
Importance so far put up by the prose
cution In the Turner murder trial. Jones
told of- wild orgies In the Germania
House nt Atlanta and on n picnic near
that city, on which he went with the
Turners and ethers, and said the trip
to Chattanooga vvaa for the purpose of
continuing the revelry. After remain
ing In the city one night tho party se
cured whisky and went to Lookout
Mountain. When they reached the foot
of the mountain Turner and his wife
separated from the rest of the party
and went off Into the woods. In a short
time Turner rejoined the party. When
asked what had become of his wife.
Turner said she had decided to go back
to the city and hod caught a car. Tur
ner then announced that he had de
cided to go himself and left.
TECH WILL ASK
STATE FOR FUNDS
FOR NEW BUILDING
When the Georgia legislature meets
again In the summer of 1908 tho prop
osition will be put up to It to spend a
sufficient sum of money on the Geor
gia School of Technology to raise It to
the standard required by Condition! of
the present day.
As stated recently In a published In
terview with President Matheson, of
the Tech, more than one hundred «tu-
dentvJiavo been turned away from "the
Institution because there is no more
available dormitory room. In addition
to having reached the limit of the dor
mitory service, the capacity of the
plant Itself Is being taxed to the ut
most and every year more students ap
ply for admission to the school than
can be adequately cared for.
At the next session of the legislature
the condition of affairs will be present
ed to the general assembly and nn ex
penditure of >40,000 or >50,000. will be
asked for n new dormitory. The leg-
tslature will also be asked to appro
priate funds for the building of a min
ing and eglneerlng building and other
wise enlarging the plant of the Insti
tution as conditions may demand.
"We are going to put the matter
squarely up to the legislature," said
President Matheson Friday. "That Is
all we enn do. Of course, we have
done this before, but this time we have
more hopes of success. Last year 1
agreed to raise >25,000 for a new min
ing and engineering building If the
atatc would furnish the rest of the
necessary sum, but no action was taken
In regard to It.
"We were subjected to some criti
cism upon the propostton that we were
making greater effort to educate boys
from other states and other sections
than we were to educate the boys of
Georgia.
[■his year we have devoted pra .
colly every effort to secure Georgia
students. We have succeeded and wo
have more boys from the state of Geor
gia than we ever had bofore. We have
answered that complaint to the extent
that many Georgia boys are not li
school today because there Is no dor.
mltory room for them, and their pa
rents object to their rooming out In
town.
"We have reached the limit of our
capacity. We need a larger plant and
better facilities for carrying on our
work. When we get 600 students we
have all we ran care .for, yet develop
ment and advancement are expected
where none can be made. If wo had
larger dormitory service we could have
500 students now roaming on the cam
pus.
"We are going to put the matter up
to the legislature next year, and see
If the state Is willing to embrace the
opportunity to make of Tech one of the
greatest Institutions of the kind In the
United States."

The Important official report of the fourth
Internntlmmi cotton congress, held at Vi
enna In May Inst, was Issued Saturday
last. It la a much bulkier volume than any
of Its three predecessors, and contain* a
rani mine of information of special Im
portance to those engaged In the world
wide ramifications of the cotton trade, snd
valuable to every one Interested in the
complications of International commerce.
The International Cotton Federation
claims to have been the menus through
which the cotton Milliners and mamifactnr
era of the world nave become closely ac
quainted, and now no longer look ttjion one
another merely as competitor* lu tin* mar
kets of the world, but rather ns member*
of one great corporation, as colleagues and
frteuds. In this way the federation ha#
achieved much, not name for the advance
ment of their own alius, but for the fur
therance of the peace of the world. The
position is suinnuirlxed hr C. W. Mi
tin* ehalriintn of the committee of the luter-
uutlona! Cotton Federation, lu the followlug
words:
"While the International Cotton Federa
tion Ins endeavored to safeguard the legiti
mate Interests of the luUtmtry as a whole.
— *- -remove alamos, there has always
sincere desire to deal equltnhlj
all concern*
feeling assured that we are not merely
working for the welfme of.a great indus
try, bat that Ity meeting together In
friendly conference to discuss the boat
methods of orercoatlng mutual difficulties
we are also actively engaged In promoting
tho welfare of liuinaulfjr nml the peace of
the world, which, more than anything e!ae,
will insure the continued prosperity, uot
only of the cotton ludnstry, not of all other
Industries.’’
t’lniuuil Interest was given to delibera
tions of the Vienna cougreaa by the •pres
ence of several prominent representatives of
the American cotton growers, who con
tributed valuable lufornintlcii to their Eu
ropean customer*, and in return* as they
frankly admitted, learned uum-Ii that waa
new about European requirements. On
behalf of the Southern Cotton Planters’
Association, V. 8. A., It was atnted that
“the time has come In tho evolnttcn of
business methods under twentieth century
Idea* when the producers of all great sta
ple commodities should come Into closer
touch and business. relationship with tha
manufacturer# and consumers or such com
modities needed In the world's channel of
trade. • • • The people of America should
no longer be strangers to tho people of Eu
rope. hnt nbould rather feel that their In-
teresta are largely mutant and that a cor-
dial and moat friendly reeling should exist
both as to business aud soolnl relation*.”
The outcome of the free discussion of thl*
a nestlon has been the visit of over a hun-
red splimeca and others associated with
the cotton Industry to the American cotton
fields this month, a iynlqn« development
from which many practical benefits are ax-
pected to accrue.
Another subject discussed by the congress
was the employment of Irregular bills of
lading fqr cotton shipped from America.
I’roor was given that these bills stated that
cotton had been shipped or received for
shipment, whereas nt tha time the bill of
lading was loaned the cotton was frequently
still mar at the Interior port. A farther
Irregularity was that the bills of biding
were signed by parties not authorised to
sign, A Idll of lading conference was held
