BATTLE TO THE KNIFE ANDKNIFETOHILLSAYS WATSON AS WAB OPENS Declares He’ll Run the Whole Show, Rejecting All Suggestions of Peace. Report That Governor Brown Plead ed With Him in Vain For Long Time. Felder Declares He Will Stick to His Guns and Fate of the Combatants Seems to Rest With Fifth District---Great Convention Starts With Finish Fight Certain. Unless all signs fail, and nothing seems more likely, the question of Thomas E. Watson’s going to Baltimore as a dele gate at large to the national convention will be fought on the floor of the state Democratic convention today to a complete and absolute finish. Watson at 11 o'clock this morning declared himself uncom promisingly for war to the knife, and the knife to the hilt. Felder, for a time last night more or less placated and ap peased, is today as immovably anti-Watson as he was when first he accepted Watson's taunting challenge to battle Monday. Desperate. even agonized, ef forts were made in the direction of at least an approximate cessa tion of hostilities and compro mise last night, and for a little while those hearts bent upon a cairn convention were slightly op timist ie. State Politics Now Mixed. . This 'morning the fat la all back in the fire, and nothing short of Watson's triumph or utter humiliation will be the result of today's convention at lite Grand opera house. if state polities had not become so vexingly interwoven in the Watson row, the solution of the puzzle might be easy enough. It would mean Wat son's entire defeat. But state politics has been mixed in it. and mixed so surely and so dis tressingly that nt, man dare try further to get it out. All controversy threw peace over tures and efforts to the winds this morning, and the decks have been cleared for action and a fight to a finish Some of John M. Slaton’s friends, who ate also Eelder's and Watson's friends, endeavored last night and late yesterday afternoon to get Watson and his cohorts into a compromising frame of mind. There were evidences that for a time these endeavors might result in something worth while. When Watson made his little talk at tile Watson meeting at the Kimball last night, these negotiations had not been concluded. Mr Watson had lis tened. for the moment, to the sirene call of peace. It was while the matter was in the air that Watson deviated he was for a lovefeast today, provided it could be pulled off. Late last night, however, things went to pieces again—and this morning Wat son is the same Watson that stepped off IX® PR I Ch’ - Trains. FIVE CENTS 1 IXlVLj.in Atlanta. TWO CENTS the Georgia train at noon yesterday. Discussing the situation this morn ing. Mr. Watson declared that there could not. In decency or common sense, be anything of compromise in him. "I can not alt on the delegation with Mr. Eelder; I will not sit there with Mr. Brantley. “I must be placed absolutely at the head of the Georgia delegation, and that delegation must be made up en tirely and exclusively of my friends. I would not care to go to Baltimore em barrassed by a hostile and unfriendly delegation behind me. "I shall begin my tight immediately after the temporary organization is un dertaken. "I shall move that all secret cau cuses held last night and this morning be set aside and abrogated, and that every county vote for itself in open convention, county by county, upon every question coming up. "1 shall triumph or fall in that fight. Its outcome will show conclusively whether I am to control or be con trolled. "I am content to stand ot fall by it. I am right; I would rather be right titan be elected chairman of the dele gation to Baltimore at a sacrifice of honor and principle " Peace Overtures Rejected, He Says. "My friend. .1. .1. Brown." continued Mr. Watson, "came to me last night and said Eelder wanted to know if 1 would meet him in conference io talk things over. "I unhesitatingly refused to moot Eelder for any purpose. "Such overtures of peace as had beer, made Io nw befoie Brown saw me were made upon a basis that I felt | might consider. But when It came to meeting Eelder and talking things over with hitr I balked "I have finally and definitely deter mined to put this matter to a test in the convention. "Watson and a Watson delegation
