The entire morning was spent In se curing a stenographer, organizing and getting down to business. The Tech case was the first one taken up. because of the fact that it was on the. recibest of Tech that the meeting was called. Tech Case le First. In speaking of the order of doing business. Professor Riggs, a member of the committee, said: "We are taking up the case of Tech first because they were the ones who applied for a hear ing. Afterwards we shall take up Georgia. We shall hear the evidence against the men who ape declared to be professionals and then consider wheth er the charges are true or not.

On the other hand, the marshal, from the city directory alone, has collected to date more than 810,000 from de faulters, which Is a considerable In crease over the amount collected last year. This will bring the total bock to nhout 8164,000. The water receipts this year will be Shout 8320,000. an Increase of about 1*0,000 over loet year. On account of the many Improve ments made this year and to be made »t the waterworks, the increase will probably be twice as great next year. gOOOO4JO0O000G0O0000000000O £ RAIN, RAIN—THEN 80ME; 0 £ FAIR STILL PROMISED.

"So you can see that Auburn Is vitally Interested. But we wish U un derstood that we want to see justice done. We do not ask that It be even postponed on our account.

Most of the accused men on the Tech team were present during sotne parts of the morning, and so were Coach Helsman, R. W.

Including Sam Hew lett and other ex-Georgia players. Also among those present was Cap tain E. J.

Barnes, who Just before adjournment yesterday tes tified a* to his acquaintance with Mrs. Bradley and different conversations he had had with her In regard to her re- latlona with .Senator Brown. Mr. Jinnies said that he remembered one conversation with Mrs. Bradley In January, 1906, In which she had asked hlnj to go to see Senator Brown fop her and endeavor to persuade him to marry her. He said Mr. Brown had promised to get a divorce nnd marry Mrs. Bradley, so she said, even before his wife died. *'I told her that I did not want to talk o tho senator about the matter and ho begged and pleaded a long time. Finally she asked me If I would go If the senator asked me to come to sea him. I told her that I would. After that the senator sent for me and we talked on the subject. Urged 8enator Brown* "I repeated the substance of my con versation with the senator to Mr*. Bradley. I told her that th© senator had asked mo what I thought about th© matter and that I had said: " 'Senator, I nm going to speak to you frankly. Mrs. Bradley says her two children are yours. X have never heard you admit It nnd am not going to conTmitxrpyscIf on this point, but you yoursolf know In your own heart whether these children are yours.

At this she be came very much agitated and per turbed.' "During thoso conversations what was her manner compared to her man ner on the witness stand here?" "She was more composed on the wit ness stand here than at some of theso conversations."

Million in Sunday School. Th. reading and discussion of the Sunday school report, together with a strong address by Dr. E. Y. Mullins, of the Baptist Theological Seminary, at Louisville. Ky.. comprised the busi ness before the convention laat night. The Sunday school report* showed more than 1.400 Bible schools In the state, with over 1,000,000 attendants. It wns shown that despite the great number of Sunday schools established and the Increased Interest In the work there were still 700 Baptist churches In the state without a Sunday school and not more than 40 per cent of the church members belong to the Sunday schools. The report of the Sunday school board shows that the board wa* In a most satisfactory condition and that last year It paid out of the sale of literature and periodical* 360,000 to denominational purposes. The address of Dr. Mullins, of the Baptist Theological Seminary, was n very strong one. He told of the efforts to raise an endowment of 3400,000 for the seminary by 1909 and of the great Importance of the work. According to a graphic report of foreign mission* read by Dr. IV. H.

Attorney Baker endeavored to have the. wltnees say that the paper wns written prob ably while Brown was Intoxicated, but It** salt that Brown’s handwriting was always very erratic and unintelligible at times. He said It was possible that it might have been written either while nator Brown was sober ->r Intoxicat ed or while he was suffering with his eyes. Major King Recalled. Major Samuel King was recalled to e stand nnd told of various efforts to get Mrs. Bradley and Brown to cease their relations. On several occasions, he said, Mrs. Bradley would become hysterical. He said that his Impression was that Mrs. Bradley loved Brown with a love that amounted to Idolatry. He said that during these Interviews she would sit for a moment and then walk the floor nnd wring her hand*.
