HOPKINS BOY IS
51.000.000 BABY
Rich Atlantan Plans to Leave
Fortune to Grandson Named
for Him.
Atlanta is to have a miHion-dollar I
baby
The suit brought against Russell Hop
kins. of Atlanta and New York, by the
grandmother of Mrs Hopkins, may bring
about a • hang* .n family arrangements
and send little Josephine e Hop
kins. the 'miHion-dollar baby.’' bark to
her father and mother. And now that
trouble has arisen between the. younger
that John Randolph Hopkins, 2d, who is
generation and the eider, it is promised
just a year old. will be another '’milllon
dollar baby.’ and a rival of his sister, for
Dr J R Hopkins, of Atlanta, the baby’s
grandfather, says his will will provide
for his young namesake.
Dr. Hopkins refused to take seriously
the charges made by Mrs. Lawrence yes
terday against his son. Russell, former
Xtlantan and consul representing Panama
here, who eloped several years ago with
beautiful Vera Segrisf, fled up the Hudson
with her nn his yacht and married her
despite the objections of “old Mrs. Law
rence and his wife, grandparents of the
bride. Dr Hopkins believes that Mrs
Lawrence has been deceived by attorneys
or others into making charges against
her granddaughter s husband, and Is con
fident that everything will be straight
ened out
Russell and Wife
Both Jim Dandies.
' Russell is all right.’ - he said. He was
talking to a reporter on the shady ve
randa of his home at Peachtree and
Baker streets. “Rtwsell may be a high
roller, but that’s his business, and I’ve
never heard anybody say he was any
thing but a good fellow and straight as a
die Hie wife is all right, too. Russell’s
s jim-dandy, and his wife’s a jim-dandy.
They don’t have to wheedle money out
of Mrs. Lawrence or anybody else as
long as I’ve got a red, and I’m not broke
by a long sight.
“You know little Josephine. Russell’s
baby girl, is living with her great-grand
mother. Mrs. Lawrence The baby is worth
a million or more, left her by Dr
rence. and the old lady is very fond of
the child I don't know what arrange
ment will be made now that Mrs. Law
rence has fallen out with Russell May
be he will take the baby home with him.
She was never legally adopted by Mrs.
Lawrence, you know. She just lived with
the old lady.
“I Guess He'll
Get Everything."
“But she won’t be the only ‘miHion
dollar bab\' in the Hopkins family Look
at this picture That’s young John Ran
dolph Hopkins, the second. They named
him for me. He's a year old now, and
he < a Jim-dandy I guess he’ll nave ev
ery thing I ve got when my time comes.
1 haven't any children but Russell, you
know The little girl has a fortune of
her own. so I guess the boy will get mine
You ought to see Russell’s home up
the Hudson It’s the pride of the river
No. he doesn't keep bls zoo any more. It
outgrew the place and I persuaded him
to give it up Hut he has a yacht and
motor cars and everything else to make
him and his wife happy Wby shouldn't
they ?
“Yes. Russell has a business. He suc
ceeded to several enterprises which Dr.
Lawrence left He doesn't fritter away
his time Certainly, he's a free spender,
but he has it to spend. He Isn't a bad
box Never gave me any trouble. He
just likes to have a good time, and 1 guess
be has it You can’t make any of his
Atlanta friends think he has done any
thing wrong “
Now the Second
Baby's In Lime Light.
The doings of Russell Hopkins have
been among the sensations of New York
ever since Vera Seagrist, heiress to the
millions of old Dr. Lawrence, of TJster
ine fame, eloped with the young Atlantan
who met her while she was touring the
South Their home up the Hudson, their
steam yacht, young Hopkins' challenge to
Sir Thomas Lipton for a yacht race from
New York to Panama, his driving a team
of zebras down F’ifth avenue all these
made excellent ‘ copy for the New York
papers. The birth of the first baby, now
three 'ears old, was followed by the an
nouncement that she was the heiress to
more than a million from her great
grandfather. Dr. Lawrence. The birth
rs the second child, John Randolph Hop
kins. 2d. didn t create such a furore, but
the announcement today that he will be
heir to his grandfather's estate may place
him in Hie limelight beside his sister.

BIG PRISON FIRE
LOOKS LIKE PLOT
Factory Burns at Chicago. Im
periling Hundreds in Cells.
Guards Prevent Escapes.
CHK'.AGO, May 23. —An Invesi igation
of a fire which burned the broom fac
tory at the Bridewell and threatened
the lives of hundreds of prisoners early
today lias been begun by the county
authorities.
It has been rumored that the fire
was incendiary and was part of a plot
for a wholesale delivery of prisoners.
The burned factory was 30 feet from
two cell houses in Which 1.000 prison
ers were confined. Dense volumes of
smoke i>oured through the barred win
dows of the cell house.
It is the belief of the authorities that
the fire may have been started in order
to force a transfer of prisoners to an
other cell building and that In the con
fusion a break for liberty would be
made. The prisoners at the Bridewell
do not wear stripes.
The prisoneres were ordered by the
guards to lie fiat on the floor. Careful
watch was kept to begin the transfer if
it became actually necessary, but the
fire was extinguished before the lives
of the prisoners were actually endan
gered.
Nashville Ball Club
Receivership Tangle
Dismissed by Court
KNOXVILLE. TENN May 23. The
Nashville baseball receivership was
dissolved today by a decision of the
court of civil appeals, holding that the
grounds upon which the receivership
were asked were insufficient.
The court, however, disclaimed juris
diction in the matter as to the in
junction prohibiting the club playing
in the state on account of alleged vio
lation of the Sunday taw. holding that
this must first be heard on its merits
in the lower court. Four of the judges
took this view -in an opinion handed
down by Judge Hughes. A minority
opinion by Judge Higgins held that the
receivership should be dismissed and
tlte club should be allowed to play on
all days other than Sunday, pending
the disposition of the lower court's in
junction as to Sunday games.

U. S. Treasurer Says One-Half
and 3-Cent Pieces Would
Be a Nuisance.
• i
Lee McClung, treasurer of the United
States, doesn't think the proposed half,
cent and three-cent coins will fill a.
long-felt want, or make the high price
of living any less altitudinous. He said
so himself today, as ho drove in with
Robert F. .Maddox from the former
mayor’s country home, on the way to a
luncheon given at the Capital City club
by Mr. Maddox to a number of visiting
bankers.
"The three-cent piece would be very
convenient in Cleveland, Ohio, where
they have three-cent car fares," he de
clared, "and the half-cent coins might
every now and then be handy in a bar
gain sale, but th" trouble they'd cause
would overbalance their convenience.
Think of the poor bookkeepers who
would have to struggle with adding up
half cents, and dividing odd amounts
by odd amounts. Pounds, shillings and
pence wouldn't be a circumstance.
The Parable of
The Dying Scotchman.
Once there'was a Scotchman dying
in a London hospital, and the attendant
desired to soothe his last moments.
"'Can I do anything to make you
happy, Sandy?’ he asked.
" If I could but hear the bonnie bag
pipes skirl once again,' said Sandy,
hopefully.
"So the doctor brought in a bag
piper and he made the rafters ring.
When he had skirled his last note the
doctor bent over Sandy and found the
crisis had passed. The Scotchman was
growing well. But. all the English pa
tients were dead
"That sums up the proposed new
coins. They might make happy' the
few. but they'd be a nuisance to the
many.
The Georgia Bankers association
which meets at Atlantic Beach this
week may leas’ Lee McClung treas
urer of the United States, hut the old
Yale men in the party will drink only
to the health of Rung McClung. Yale.
'92. the greatest halfback, < >ld Eli ey. .
boasted, and one of the few athletes
who captained both the football and
baseball teams In the same year.
McClung and his plays filled as many
newspaper columns in those days as
Ty Cobb occupies now.
He captained the Blue eleven in the
fall of '9l, the famous year when Yale
rolled ,up a total football score of 420
points, while their adversaries never
once crossed Elis line. That was a
record score which stands even unto
this day.
And "Rung" McClung did a little
more than his share in nutting the ball
over the line, though such stars as
Heffelftnger, Dr. Hartwell and Hinkoy.
Yale's greatest end, were his compan
ions on the team.
When McClung left college he went
hack to his home in Knoxville, Tenn.,
took off his college clothes ami pitched
in to work for the Southern railway.
He spent several years with the rail
road. climbing from one place to an
other. and then Yale called him again
He went to his alma mater as treasur r
of the college, and stayed there until
William Howard Taft, of Yale, succeed
ed the colonel in the white house. Then
Mr. McClung was appointed treasurer
of the United States. He wouldn't say
today whether he expected Mr. Taft to
continue at the old stand after March,
1913, neither would he make audible
comment on the result in Ohio Bui he
said Atlanta looked like the lives! town
he had seen in many moons.
Mr. McClung was guest of honor at a
luncheon this afternoon at the Capita!

dinner by Mr. Maddox at his country

Shirtwaist Man Back
On Atlanta Streets:
Bit Late This Year
The shirtwaist man appeared in spots
on Atlanta streets today, and because
of his late advent created no ripple as
he might have done earlier in the sea
son.
When the custom first became estab
lished it was good form to wear only
a white shirt this to please the ladies,
of course. It was soon discovered,
however, that a white shirt remained so
about five minutes, if the wearer hap
pened to be within a mile's radius of
the Peachtree viaduct. For that reason
it was decided that something a little
less attractive to Atlanta's tffioiee col
lection of sooty snot would be worn in
the future.
Freed from the hot embarrassment
of a coat, the shirtwaist man looked
i very happy this morning, even though
a little lumpy in spots

Cotton Crop Anyway
For Georgia Farmers,
Despite Wet Weather
The Georgia cotton situation has as
sumed a more optomistie aspect, ac
cording to reports which are reaching
the state department of agriculture
dail v.
J. J. Brown, assistant commissioner,
said today that indications pointed to a
cm,, which would be at least 70 per
coni Os that of 1911. Improved weather
conditions, he said, placed the farmers
in better condition than was deemed
possible tw'o weeks ago.
It is estimated that, the continual wet
weather of the early spring cut down
the cotton acreage as at least 20 p r
cent. In addition to this cut. exploiters
<>f the Rock Hill plan have succeeded
in getting pledges which will reduce
the acreage at least ten per cent.

500 MARINES ARE
ROSHEGTO CURA
U. S. Jackies to Enlarge Force
Now at the Guantanamo
Naval Station.
WASHINGTON. May 23—Five hun
dred marines were ordered to sail from
she League Island navy yard, Philadel-,
phia. on the Prairie today, to join the
force now at the United States naval
station at Guantanamo. Cuba. The
force Is under the command of Colonel
Lincoln Karmany.
It was officially announced by the
government tha't Estenoz and Yvonet,
two chief leaders of the rebellious ne
groes. had asked for a conference with
the government and that it had been
refused. President <3omez says he will
accept nothing but unconditional sur
render from the negroes. Senor Lare
do, secretary of state, declared today
that the revolt would be crushed out
before night.
The order was issued by Secretary
of the Navy Meyer, acting on a request
from the state department. Rush or
ders also were issued' today to naval
stations along the Atlantic coast to hold
all marines in readiness for immediate
movement.
Gunboats Ordered
Cleared for Action.
Wireless orders were sent from Key
West to the gunbots Nashville and Pa
ducah. now at Guantanamo, to clear for
action and place themselves in position
to protect American interests at that
point. Today’s movement of marines
followed closely on the receipt of dis
turbing dispatches from Guantanamo,
which stated that 3,000 armed negroes
are marching toward the United States
reservation, pillaging and burning as
they go. A number of important Amer
ican interests in the neighborhood of
Guantanamo and Santiago already have
made representation to the department
that their property is being seized and
the lives of their employees endangered
and have requested that the government
of the United States provide adequate
protection for them.
In view of these appeals, the state
department today transmitted to Pres
ident Gomez, through Minister Beau
pre. the statement that the United
States, while undesirous of Interfering
in Cuban affairs, must demand that the
naval station at Guantanamo, together
with the lives and property’ of Ameri
can citizens throughout the island, be
adequately protected.
Situation Serious
Officers Admit.
The Cuban gunboat Cuba, with 600
troops on board, is expected tn arrive
at Guantanamo today. The govern
ment. apparently unable to estimate the
strength of the insurrectionary senti
ment, has sent out forces by train to
Oriente provinces. The Cuban mili
tary authorities admit the situation is
extremely dangerous, but think they
can- control It.
The state department's action in ask
ing that marines he dispatched to
Guantanamo today' is believed here to
he hut the first move in a concerted
program of intervention in Cuba —an
intervention which practically would
mean annexation—as it was stated at
tlie close of the second military' occu
pation of the island three years ago
that "if American troops ever have to
return to Cuba they would stay there.”
Washington Reports
Inflame Cubans
HAVANA, May 23. Reports from
Washington that the United States is
again considering intervention in Cuba
because of conditions which have, fol
lowed the negro uprising caused in
tense feeling throughout this city to
day. President Gomez, in a public
statement, denied that the situation
has gotton beyond the Cuban govern
ment. H" declared that ho expected
to have the revolt in Oriente and Las
villa provinces under control within a
short time.
Rurales have been sent against the
armed negro bands and fighting is im
minent at several places in the inte
rior. It is reported that a number of
whites have joined the negroes and are
fighting under the banner of the in
surgents.

Drinking Water Trust
Arrives in Atlanta;
Three Firms Merge
Even drinking water has come under
the rule of combination, and compe
tition is no more. The Atlanta Mineral
Water Supply Company has taken over
the old competing concerns —the Bow
den company and the Ben scot com
pany—an has an exclusive agency for
Tate Springs water, and now all lithia
sells at the same price and comes front
the same wagon. Yod can pay your
money and take your choice.
Atlanta drinks 1,000 gallons of lithia
water every day in the warm months
and pays an average price of fifteen
cents a gallon for the privilege. For
years the Bowden and the Benscot
companies have been rivals for Atlanta
business. The Benscot springs are
north of Austell, Ga., while the Bow
den springs are a few miles south.
This season the stockholders of the
two companies got together and de
cided to make one wagon to do the
work of two. They consolidated, and
Guy Holcomb, who managed the Bow
den company, is now president of the
new conctjrn.
But the price of lithia water hasn’t
been boosted. It remains at 75 cents
per three-gallon case, and you have
your choice of brands.

IS 'EASY PICKING'
Governor Thinks Conservative
Democrat Can Beat Him on
Third-Term Sentiment.
Governor Joseph M. Brown thinks
Theodore Roosevelt's nomination to the
presidency of the United States by the
Republican party would be a most hap
py circumstance for l he Democrats.
The governor believes that a level
headed, reasonably conservative Demo
cratic nominee would "beat Mr. Roose
velt to a frazzle” in November.
“Unless I mistake the American peo
ple, the time has not yet come when
they are. willing to throw to the winds
their convictions with respect to the
grave perils of a third term in the pres
idency for any man." declared the gov
ernor today. “I still think that the
American people will hesitate before
giving to Roosevelt what Washington
refused and Grant was denied.
"Mr. Roosevelt spoke truly when from
tlie white house in 190 S lie proclaimed
a dignified refusal to consider a third
term for himself, and said that, al
though lie had been elected only once,
yet the people in their anti-third term
ideals respected the substance and not
the form of things, and that he de
clined -to be a party to the upsetting of
this wholesome precedent.
"Mr. Roosevelt's nomination by the
Republicans would make Democratic 1
success, if sensibly pursued, an assured
thing in November," concluded the gov
ernor.

JURY DPI 3 FDR
DARROW TRIAL
LOS ANGELES. May 23.—The 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 w,th
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 nave proved to be
possessed of more fixed, stubborn opin
ions and prejudices than all the men
