WOMUN KEENTO FIGHT BRICK MEN Mrs. Shaw Says She’ll Show Wallingford Deal and Prove Her Process a Success. * Mrs Frances D. Shaw expects to | show the world from the clay fields of . ' Georgia that the Shaw process for the : manufacture of brick is not.a .ioke. the legal battles and the financial tricks of . the brick manufacturers of Georgia to ..the contrary notwithstanding. It will take more than the allega tions in a contract, fight between Mr. .Tames English. Jr., of the Palmer Brick Company, and the Chatham Brick Com pany to indicate that the Shaw process I won't work,” said Mrs. Shaw today in discussing the injunction suit filed in superior court by th° Chatham com pany as a result of Shaw kilns erected in McDuffie county. "In the first place, they did not build the kilns right down there, and I don't believe they wanted to. Discovery Pure Occident. “I-hate always been interested in the development of the clay industry.” said Mrs. Shaw at the Georgian Terrace. "It is in my blood. The invention came i as a sheer accident, through an explo- • sion in a chemical laboratory. It is I hardly more than the burning of brick with crude oil, but it will change the j Industry. "When 1 came to Atlanta I had de cided to work with the'Georgia clays; but it seems as though the brick man ufacturers of Georgia don’t want to make brick; they want to play the game of high finance and 1 have learned a lot of that little game since coming here. "But they won't stop the Shaw proc ess. It can't be stopped. I am going to stay right here until it is working successfully all over the. state.” Allege Wallingford Tactics James W. English. Jr., who formerly! owned the rights to the Shaw patent 5 and who i? defendant in the suit of the Chatham Brick Company for $30,090. , said. .to., have been secured by hint through Wallingford tactics, says it is the Chatham company suit and not the Shaw patents which Is the joke. "They didn't want their plant to work down there. Jjecause my contract calls for a payment of $25,000 when it does work." said English. "They want to unload that plant on me. "You can say for me that I will post a bond for surety and if I don’t put that McDuffie county plant in working order in six weeks I will pay those fellow-s the $30,000 they claim it cost them to put up their kilns.” English cited the Georgia Brick Com pany at Athens, the plant recently in stalled by Mrs. Shaw, as an example of the improved plan working when it is built properly. making me buy that plant at Brick stone by any such tactics," concluded Mr. English, Old Peachtree Homes Doomed by Business Pushing Up the Street ■'There'll nevey be another residence built in Peachtree street between Five Points and Tenth street." said a real estate man' today. "The old homes are tumbling down, one after another, like blocks set up in a. row for a child to * pla< w ith and business houses are tak ing their places. Within ten years Peachtree will be one solid stretch of p'ate gla.: front-'from uptown to far out beyond the Georgian Tetrace. Do jOu know that there are a few ov . ners of Peachtree street property who are busted’ so far as ready money gbes? Take a man or woman who owns two or three old homes just beyond the present business center and owns nothing else. The rental for that prop erty. from boarding house keepers and lodging houses, will hardly pay taxes and keep up other expenses Os course there's a fortune in the land, but un til a business house which pays a real income replaces the 'dead', residence property it is a white elephant on an owtier's hands."

As Mi Massee and the I mayor have been political allies for eight years Mr. Masses's attack on Mr. Moore may prove a serious handicap tj ; the latter's ch.inees of re-election. ■ Mr Massee said. "I note that the mayor says Macon I can not support two street railway, and “ power companies. It' my mind did not 1 work any faster than Mr. Moore's I would still be back in Marshallville pulling the 'bell cord' over a. mule." Then he adds that he did not ask the mayor to invest in his company, the Georgia Service Corporation, "because 1 the mayor is the largest. local stock -1 holder In the present corporations.' In Mr. Moore's three races for h’- mayoraity Mr Massee was the largest ' subscriber to th? campaign fund, and practically th? director o’" the cam paigns. ALBANIAN REBELS, LEVY IN COMMAND.

Brown s two successful campaigns for ; governor, and an arden' advocate of; Woodrow Wilson in the presidential primary campaign in Georgia, specifi cally denies that he entertains guber natorial ambition now or that be en tertained it prior to the overthrow of the Wilson hosts in Georgia recently. Mr. Smith declares that if-every vote in Georgia had been cast for Wilson he ! still would not be a candidate for gov ernor. Hf says he long ago promised his vote to a personal friend, and he would consider it a; dishonorable thing to break that word by opposing him. With regard to his congressional boomiet so called. Mr Smith admits that many friends have written and spoken to him on that .subject, and have urged him to oppose William Schley Howard. He does not say that ne wll) not be a candidate against Mr. Howard; neither does he say tfcat he will be He merely corroborates the .■ tony that there art friends actively advocating him for that office. The Atlanta man does not object to having his ■political fortunes discussed by friend or foe, so long as the facts are kept straight; but he does object to.the insinuation in some quarters that lie has traded his former Joe Brown views for a new set of Hoke Smith views in order that he might ob am some office. In supporting Woodrow ' Wilson, Mr. Smith says he followed his firm conviction of the right--that he was for Woodrow.' Wilson, and had so announced publicly, long before _Un i derwood’s name was mentioned in ■ Georgia Mi. Smith says that when he does get ready tn plunge politically, every body will be given ample and sufficient ! notice. Once again a senate committee has vindicated Lorimer. Cheer up. nevertheless*. There wil! be no Lorimer presidential boom started. The subsequent kiss>ng-and-mak ing-up between the President and the Colonel is going to be beautiful to see—if It ever happens. One of the present raiiroad commis sioners—Paul B. Trammell—seems likely to be' returned to office without brotest from any quarter. Mr. Tram mell Is serving an unexpired term brought about some six months ago by the promotion of Commissioner War ner Hill to the supreme court bench; and it seems generally agreed that he shall have a full term without a fight. Long before Trammell was appointed to the commission by Governor Hoke Smith, he was known to harbor decided ambition in that direction. Mr. Tram mells father was the chairman of the date's first railroad commission, and was one of the most acceptable and ef ficient commissioners Georgia ever had He started the great work that sub sequent commissioners have endeav ored. with varying degrees of success, to carry forward. Paul Trammell admits that he’ de sires nothing so much as to link his name perpetually with the honorable body his father helped bring "into ex istence—and it is conceded; moreover, that he is amply qualified for the work. If he is to have opposition, it is not yet apparent. The sweet girl graduate.ls about the only person who may remind the people nowadays that "Beyond the Alps Lies Italy," and not be suspected of an intent to put some body in the Ahariias'club. "What’s the matter with Geor- V ■gia?" inquiries The Augusta Her ald Nothing radically wrong, per haps, even if she does go first one way and then another politi cally. The first evidence of opposition to Judge Allen, of Baldwin, for the presi dency of the next senate came today, w hen J.' E. T Bowden let a number of his friends know that he would, in the event of his election to the senate, be come a candidate for the presidency thereof Up to the time of Mr. Bowden’s an nouncement. ribboclv had "heaved" in sight to contest W'ith; the. Milledgeville mart for the high honor he seeks, and, ay it had been generally .coni edert that Judge’ Allen was to' have no opposi tion, it goes without .staying that the precipitation of the Waycross man's hat into the' ring will attract no little interested attention. Judge Alien still seems to have one advantage- of Mr Bowden, however inasmuch as the ’judge Is to be elected tn the senate w ithout opposition, and already Is a* liberty to prosecute his other campaign without any "ifs. ands, or buts ' attaching, whereas Mr. Bow dAn has something of a fierce fight on to'achieve his primary ambition. Both men are populal, and a race between them for the presidency of the senate would be entertaining enough for ordinary purposes. Judge Moses Wright, of Rome, is an Atlanta visitor. Judgr Wright is not taking any acute interest in politics right now. being constantly engaged in a large law prac tice. Hr still hopes to . see his favor ite for the presidency.

May 23 —Scientists to day are deeply' interested in the claim of Dr. David Allyn Gorton, the Brook lyn physician that he has discovered the secret of sex control. Just about a year ago Dr. Gorton, who is in his eightieth year, married Bertha Rehhein. hie stenographer and literary secretary. A romance, his friends called the marriage, but today it appears to have been a romance of a more philosophical order than they suspected. At their home. No. 632 Eleventh street, Brooklyn, the doctor and his wife received congratulations on the birth of twins —a bouncing boy and girl. Dr. Gorton, who is a student of the'theory' of the control of ex as ad vanced by’ Dr. Eufurt. the famous Ger man scientist, had he«n looking about for the proper mother for the son who should be brought into being endowed with everything that heredity could give him For 25 years his search last ed, and be finally decided that the girl who had been taking his dictation was the woman he had been seeking. The aged physician got the boy he wanted, and. to his joyful surprise also found himself the father of a bouncing girl. He give: this personal account of the remarkable births: By DR. D. A GORTON. I am overjoyed at the graciou- grant to me and mine of twins—a son and a daughter, both the most beautiful chil dren that I ever have seen. I did not bespeak for but one- i son —but the gift of a daughter twin was- not le. s welcome, be assured. It was a grave responsibility a* my age—near 80—to become the father of a ’child.

WOFI3FDR DARROW TRIAL Prosecution Expects Hearing to Last Until Middle of July. State Has 50 Witnesses. LOS ANGELES. May 23.—Ths un lucky thirteen was still In evidence in Judge Hutton’s court room this morning when examination of tales men was resumed in the trial of Clar ence Darrow for bribery. The. trouble began when, after hav ing secured a jury of twelve men with comparative ease, counsel and court decided to throw in an extra juror for good measure. Thirteen veniremen were borrowed from another depart ment of the superior court, and so far as examined they have proved to be possessed of more fixed, stubborn opin ions and prejudices than all the men examined for the regular panel pos sessed. District Attorney Fredericks, whose opening statement to the jury is ex* pected to prove sensational in the ex treme, predicts that the trial will last to the middle of July. Assistant. Dis trict Attorney Ford 5 believes a verdict will be reached by June 15. Rogers and Darrow agree with Ford, but they arrive at the conclusion by a different process of reasoning. Fifty Witnesses For State.

The program of the prosecution is to place on the stand as first witness George Monro, clerk of Judge Bord well's court, who will tell of the Mc- Namara trial Monroes testimony will be altogether preliminary, and the first real w itness will appear in George N.
