"If a law should be passed making liquor selling a capital offense, pun ishable with death on the gallows, some ROFKE PLEADS GUILTY OF BIG EMBEZZLEMENT He Slipped $1,150,000 From Fidelity Trust Company,- of Louisville, Ky. Louisville, Ky., Nov. 29.—August Ropke, who embezzled 11,150,000 from the Fidelity Trust Company, withdrew of Atlanta's blind tiger operators would j his plea of not guilty and pleaded keep at the business. They would risk guH‘y when his case came up In the their lives to sell liquor. The Atlanta; criminal court today. Tho common- blind tiger Is certainly a brazen and 1 wealth s attorney^recommended^a^sen- darlng animal." This statement was made Tuesday morning by Police Chief Henry Jen nlngs in discussing the record-break ing collection of blind tiger cases on Tuesday's police docket—a total of twenty. This number smashes Into smithereens all previous blind tiger records, being the greatest number scheduled for trial In police court on any one day since the prohibition law went Into effect, January 1, 1908. Recorder Broyles will subject these blind animals to legal surgery at the afternoon session of court, and. Judging by the characteristic success of his irevlous operations, there Is no doubt _iut that ho will open their eyes. The regular crop of drunks, disorderlies and other minor offenders Is on the wait ing list for treatment at the same time and the present Indications are that the session will continue far Into the night Recorder Pro Tem Preston had his hands full Tuesday morning listing the K tlents and getting them ready for ctor Broyles In the afternoon. Getting Worse Now. The blind tiger, diagnosed by the po. lice as an animal that flourishes more generously In cold weather and partic ularly In the vicinity of Christmas times, is now rampant In Atlanta and the police are compelled to work their special tiger dragnet overtime. Large numbers of these beasts have been bagger during the past few weeks, but never In the history of the blind tiger has such a number been corralled foi one seance as that scheduled for Tues day afternoon. “Blind tigers are flourishing In At lanta now like unto the proverbial green bay tree,” said Chief Jennings, "which Is demonstrated by the ex traordinarily large number that has been caught In the net by the police. And It Is this activity on the part of the police that causes Atlanta's blind tiger record to show up so strong In comparison with other cities. The law Is being enforced In Atlanta, while in other cities violations of the liquor law are being winked at. If the police and the courts were not enforcing the law here, the situation, on Its face and to outsiders, would Indicate that there were few blind tigers In operation. And then, I might add In the same breath, that the situation here would be the same as In other cities—liquor would be sold openly In saloons and In the streets—If the law was not being en-. forced. "The police and the courts are mak ing It hot for blind tigers, but Just at soon as one bites the dust It either revives and comes back as strong as ever or a bunch of new ones spring up like a mushroom In the night to take Its place."

Washington, Nov. 29.—President Taft wielded the big stick and pruning knife today.
