Some of Mr. Felder's ■friends maintain that there will be nothing worth while accomplished in a meeting tomorrow night, inasmuch as they are confident of beating Watson utterly and thor oughly. as the case now stands.

Watson's sen sational defiance and challenge issued from Thomson today, undoubtedly means, a number of politicians in At lanta think, the bringing to the. state cont ention's consideration of the name of Editor Charles R. Pendleton, of Ma con. as a delcgate-at-large to Balti more. It is weh Known that Colonel Pendle ton thoroughly disapproves bf Watson going i.o Baltimore in any capacity. He also does not think Watson has any business in the state convention. Because of the fact, however, that many Underwood leaders committed themselves to Watson's cause early in the game, including such men as G. R. Hutchens. Clark Howell, Governor Brown. Tom Felder and others, all friends and political associates of Colo nel Pendleton, the Bibb county man lias thus far repressed his disapproval, and lot it be known only through the ■ontinued denseness of bis silence re garding the Thomson man's probable status before the contention in At lanta. See Way to “Rub in" Rebuke. Now‘that it has become evident that th* convention in Atlanta will either end a pronounced -'pro-Watson or anti-Watson delegation to Baltimore, tho-e determined upon Watson's stern rebuke Wednesday ar' asking them selves how they could make this rebuke more emphatic, positive and complete than lit naming Colonel Pendleton, in stead .of Watson, as one of the dele gatea-at-large to Baltimore. "Wo not only shall not permit Wat son to misrepresent Georgia in Balti more,” said one of Atlanta's leading Underwood supporters today, “but. I, for one. am in favor of putting that stalwart old Democrat. Pendleton, of Macon, on s the delegation tn Watson's place. “There never would have been any question of Pendleton’s going to Bal timore, anyway, had it not been that Pendleton himself .aptirrunced, private ly but none the less positively, that he would not sit on the delegation with Watson, and that he would .quietly withdraw lather than be a stumbling block it, th* way of harmony in the state convention, however' misguided the efforts to preserve harmony may have been Brava old Pendleton, who has more sense than most of us —and that, is a sact —knew the convention was playing with fire when it mon key efl with Watson. He knew Mat son couldn't and wouldn’t tote fair. Rut he was unwilling to embarrass such I friends as Hutchens. Howell. Brown i and others, even in their mistaken en deavor to placate Watson. Pendleton Suggestion Gains Favor. "I am in favor of begging Pendleton's pardon for not recognizing his superior wisdom long ago. and I am in favor of making ourselvea plain as well as em phatic by naming him as a delegate to Baltimore, after Watson ha* been elim inated, and without asking Pendleton anything about It in advance." This Pendleton suggestion, which was widely discussed in Atlanta after The Geo gian spread al noon today the news ihat Watson finally and com pletely had kicked the lid off the peace party arranged for Wednesday, has met with much favor and may be carried out OPERATOR KILLS MAN IN DISPUTE OVER TELEGRAM SAVANNAH GA..

S. HAVANA May 27.—1 n the endeavor) I to save the Cuban republic from in- I tervention by the United States, Presi dent Gomes is today making frenzied efforts to put down the negro uprising before United States military forces are landed in what every- Cuban believes would be the final occupation of the is land by the great republic. Five thousand troops are in the field under orders to give decisive Hat tie to the rebellious negroes at the earliest possible moment and to give no quar ter. Negroes will be 'treated with the greatest severity ; prisoners of war will be shot as traitors. Three thousand men in Oriente prov ince. under the command of Montea gudo. federal commander-in-chief, are in motion against the principal rebel detachment under Generals Estenoz and Ivpnot. The government army hopes to force the horde of rebels into a battle within 48 hours. Arms Issued to Private Citizens. Continued depredations are reported. The greatest number are in Santiago and Oriente provinces, where the rebels are strongest. In those provinces plan tation owners are marshaling their em ployees, and arming them. The govern ment is Supply ing free of charge arms and ammunition for private citizens. Sy government decree all civilians are empowered .to take up arms against the marauders and no act of violence against the negroes will be questioned hereafter. From Holguin in Santiago it is re ported that negroes attacked the village of Saoarrlba. north of there, burning a number of houses and carrying off a number of women. A small guard of ruraies has been rushed north from Holguin on a branch line of the Cuba railroad to pursue the negroes and res cue the prisoners. The negroes are carrying off dyna mite from mining companies in t'ama syey province. In many instances where euch seizures have been made receipts, have been given to be paid by the provisional government of which Estonez has declared himself president. Many Rebels Armed Only With Machetes. The chief results front the rebel raids have been seizures of money, guns and horses. Many of the negroes went into the field armed only with machetes. , These have proved pool weapons in brushes against rurales. armed with carbines and revolvers. Traffic on the main line of the Cuba railroad between Havana and its east erly terminus at Santiago is interrupt ed at a half a dozen different places, where the. negroes have burned bridges of blown tip the tracks to prevent the advance of troop trains into Santiago province. The extreme northeastern port of Baracoa is being closely watched to guard against the landing of filibusters. The government lias learned that Hai tian and Dominican blanks and much ammunition have been landed there within the past four days. While attempting to seize several cases of the high explosive melinite be longing to the Cuea Copper Company near th* city' of Santiago, fifteen mounted negroes were fired upon from ambush and three of Hmm killed. Workmen of the copper company who had enrolled as volunteers defended the company's property. “No Intervention,” Taft Wires Gomez WASHINGTON. May-2,. The Unit ed States government will not inter vene in Cuba unless American lives are menaced or American interests suffer more heavily than they have up to date in the negro uprising President Taft today sent a ca-b'.e gram to President Gomez assuring him that this governrhent has no present in tention of intervening in Cuban affairs and that warships and troops are being sent merely as a precautionary meas ure. President Taft telegraphed the message f'om Jersey City to Washing ■ ton and it was officiary cabled through the tegular state department channel fjom this city to Havana The message was an answer to Pres ident Gomez's cabl* to President Tafr assuring him that the Cuban govern ment is able to cope with the situation there and that there is no call for inter ! ference at present.

Office Boy Who Lost I SSO Offers Half of It As Reward to Finder | If you had lost SSO. would you be | willing to give half of it to the man jw ho found it 2 Or if you thought it had i been stolen, would you take $25 of .t and let the thief keep the rest? Fred Alien would, so he figures that losing $25 is better than losing SSO. and so he put an ad in The Georgian offer ing to share evenly with the person i w'hb'returns the money. Allen, eighteen years old. works so: lan insurance company in the Grant building. He went to the Fourth Na tional bank last Saturday to cash a SSO check for his employer. He received the money, two twenties and a ten, put it in his trousers pocket, and went on an errand in the Fourth National bank building. When he came down the money was safe in his pocket, he says. When be got to th* Grant building it was gone. Alien thinks a pickpocket was on the job. If Allen doesn’t get the money he must pay the amount from his weekly salary That would take six months -of strictest economy .

May 27. —Wholesale arrests are being made throughout‘ltaly today l ! as the result of the discovery of -a plot to assassinate King Victor Emmanuel of Italy. The discovery of the plot fol lowed admissions made by Antonio d'Alba. the young anarchist who tried . to shoot King Victor Emmanuel sev - eral months ago. A number of alleged conspirators already have been taken t . into custody at Milan, Naples, Rom* and Bologna At least three self-con . fessed anarchists are said to have bernt . here. The authorities wilt give no Information relative to the scope of the cabal, nor will they admit how many arrests have been made It is believed that the authorities have been investigating the ramifiea- I tfons of the plot for some time. After d'Aiba was arrested in Rome charged with attempted assassination he clung to the story that he was alone in the J matter. There were rumors of various sorts. One of these was that d'Alba was iu i the pay of Turkey and had been elected ■ by an anarchist society to kill tiie king. - The belief most generally Accepted at , the time, however, was that d'Alba had . gone insane through reading accounts r of Italians killed in the war with Tur • key. That lhe police have delayed making . arrests until the last minute so as not .. to arouse suspicion and hinder their in . vestigations is evident. It is known that many other arrests w ill be made, i In the meantime King V ictor expos . himself as little as possible and when he appears in public is escorted- by a strong guard, while . secret service ■ agents mingle with the crowds. | AT THE THEATER"' I ATLANTA GIRL HEADS FORSYTH BILL THIS WEEK Milla Holt Wakefield, an Atiahta girl 1 heads the bill at the Forsyth this week. . and it is a bill that will win honors.
