TENNESSEE TAFT
MEN PUN J FLOP
Steam Roller Adds Mississippi
to the President's Column
of Delegates.
Continued From Page One.
tlonai Republican convention days be
fore it opened, witness'd such a lively
squabble for their votes.
Never have the negroes among them
been treated to such lavish entertain
ment and such solicitous i are by the
representatives of rival candidates.
Never has the real status of these del
egations been more in doubt.
Never has tin work of the steam
roller left a mor. wabbly set of dele
gates behind it, and never have the big
men of the party themselves been more
uncertain of th'- outcome.
Third candidate moves have been
made by the more conservative leaders
of both sides, who want to “save tht
organization,” and so far the compro
mise moves have fallen flat because the
two leading candidates for the nomina
tion are backed by a partisan spirit
among their followers as Intense as
that which in former days existed be
tween the two great political parties
themselves.
Southern Delegations
Admitted Shaky.
As tin convention draws nearer, pol
iticians express Ihe belief that, after
all, the work of the Republican na
tional committee isn't going to tell the
slot'.' . Tile steam roller has been work
ing smoothly enough, but when Taft
pqliti< lans themselves question the pos
sible vote of some of the big men of
the party who have been seated, and
frankly admit that the Southern dele
gations are shaky, the benefit derived
from its work Is doubtful.
< 'ertair.lj some of the moves have
strengthened the < ‘olonol's cause. The
seating of Taft delegates from the
Fourth California district is one thing
that has increased the bitterness man
ifested by the Roosevelt men. It has
driven at least one new Republican
presidential elector. Fred S. Buggy, of
the Sixth Indiana district, to declare
his intention of joining the electors'
bolt should the convention name any
one except the Colonel.
The bitterness is affecting also the
status of the uninstructed delegates
From many districts in many parts 01
the country where uninstructed delega
tions have been named divided voles to
promote mm h needed pat ty harmony
are certain.
Negro Delegates
Cause of Worry.
The question of handling ami land
ing rhe Southern negroes has become a
matter of foremost importance. Th-'
gorgeous entertainment planned fol
them, to be held at the Auditorium
theater on Friday, has been postponed
until Monday The convention will
open Tuesday. The fact that the meet
ing has been postponed and that more
gorgeous plans have been mule lot
holding it bus fostered in the breasts
of the Taft men the belief that Roose
velt himself will arrive Monday and ad
dress flic meeting.
That this would be of real impor
tance the Taft men concede.
The fact is that the real thing will
get the Southern negroes in line and
hold them there is a genuine hand
wagon movement. One Indiana negro
politician sent to the Roosevelt negro
headquarters in South State street re
turned and reported that the delegates
were wavering
"What they want to know.” he said,
“is who is go ng to win. They are not
worrying about anything else."
Under the circumstances, Congress
man McKinley's charge that Roosevelt
men were trying to buy the Southern
delegates caused a genuine sensation.
The boldness of his statement, dove
tailing into a situation where appar
ently a little "political money” would
do a lot of good, found people ready
to accept tile charges as true. It was
equally opportune for the Roosevelt
men to m ike a counter charge and find
that about as many otln r people would
believe them.

DRUG MEN FIGHT
NEAR-BEER BILE
Declare Alcohol Clause of Tip
pins Measure Means Ruin to
Trade in Georgia.
Unless amended to meet the require
ments bf the drug trade of the state,
the famous Tippins bill, the first bill on
the house calendar for consideration by
the Georgia legislature at its forthcom
ing summer session, will he bitterly
fought by the druggists.
The Tippins bill is primarily aimed
at th. near-beer dealers and manufac
turers of Georgia. Under Its provisions
no beer or liquid compound manufac
tured for sale as an "Imitation” beer
could be sold in any event, and no
compound whatsoever containing more
than one per cent of alcohol could be
marketed, either In wholesale or retail
quantities.
The passage of this bill, with the
governor's signature attached, inevita
bly would close every near-beer bar In
Georgia. It would also absolutely stop
the manufacture of beer or any Imita
tion thereof.
Druggists Ready For Fight.
The druggists of the state do not op
pose those things so strenuously as
they do oppose the provision of the Tip
pins bill which prohibits the sale ot
any liquid compound containing more
than one per cent of alcohol. The
druggists of Georgia appointed a com
mittee to confer with a legislative com
mittee looking to the amending of the
Tippins bill in such wise as to remove
that objectionable feature, but the com
mittee from the druggists claim that
the bill was not so amended, as the leg
islative committee said It should be,
hence the druggists will tight it. as it
stands.
Druggists returning from the annual
meeting of the Georgia Pharmaceutical
association, now in session in Savan
nah. say that the Tippins bill has been
a topic of continued discussion during
the progress of the convention. They
say that the druggists will oppose it
virtually to a man, in its present form.
The druggists claim that the Tippins
’.ill would drive the sale of drugs abso.
lately from the state, if enacted In its
present form. They point out, for in
stance. that paregoric, one of the com
monest articles of sale in drug stores,
would lie barred from the market under
the operation of this bill, because it
contains necessarily a high percentage
of alcohol. They cite scores of other
drugs that would be eliminated from
tin trade by the Tippins bill.
Early Vote on Bill Expected.
Tho Tippins bill will come up for ac
tion early in the summer session of the
legislature. It lias been read in the
house twice, and can hardly be kept
from a vote long. After it passes the
house, if it does pass, and it generally
is predicted that It. will, it must go to
I lie senate. If the senate passes it,
there still is the chance that the gov
ernor will veto it that, in all likeli
hood. will depend upon the shape in
which it gets to the governor.
ylreatiy there is talk of amending it.
bet-we it leaves the house. An amend
ment providing for the abolition of
locker clubs" Is being talked of, an
other i nendmetit to meet the objec
tions of the drug trade has its advo
cates; while still another amendment,
v.igue and Indefinite as yet. is living
thought out, whereby it may be re
ferred to the people for approval or re
jection, as tile case may be, after it is
passed by the legislature.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY. .TUNE 13, 1912,
Crawl Over Stern and Equilib
rium of Skiff Will Not Be
Disturbed.
Knowledge of the right way to get
back into a boat, as illustrated in The
Georgian yesterday, would save many
lives in accidents on the water. Today
is shown the wrong way—-unfortunate
ly followed in many cases.
The persons who have been thrown
out of the little craft are shown climb
ing back over the side, and as a result
the craft is being rapidly submerged.
Had the three climbed over the stern,
as was shown yesterday, the boat would
not have filled with water and would
virtually have maintained its equilib
rium.

mer, posed in these pictures for The
Georgian helping to illustrate lessons
which may avert repetition of the ac
cidents which have cost two Ilves at
Piedmont park this season.
BIG RIOT GREETS
NEW ITALIAN LAW
150 Wounded When Sicilians,
Shorn of Fishing Rights,
Defy Authorities.
PALERMO, ITALY, June 13.—One
hundred and fifty persons, including
fifteen gendarmes, were wounded here
today in rioting that caused a reign of
terror over the entire city. Os the
wounded a large number are women.
Some of the victims will die.
The trouble arose from the passage
of a law restricting maritime agree
ments. As the commerce of this port
is heavy and fishing is a leading in
dustry, Palermo was hard hit by the
new law. The Sicilian members repre
senting this district fought hard
against the bill.
As soon as word of the passage of
the measure was received here the
populace arose in wrath and marched
through the streets to the municipal
building, where a demand was made
that all government officials resign at
once. Tlie rioters threatened to burn
the buildings.
<’arabinieres and gendarmes were
called and fired into the ranks of the
strikers. Instead of being awed, the
gun play only heightened the wrath of
the people. After several hours of
fierce fighting the mobs were finally
scattered and the ringleaders arrested.
A general strike has been ordered.

Canadian Says All Could Have
Taken to Ice Floes and
Escaped.
LONDON, June 13.—" There is wide
spread regret among the hardy fisherfolk
of Newfoundland that there was nobody
aboard the Titanic to suggest tlie ob
viously simplest and most effective meth
od of saving the 2.500 persons on board.
This could have - been done by simply
utilizing the Ice floes in the vicinity as
gigantic rafts, to which the passengers
and crew might have been transferred,”
writes the Hon. P. T. McGrath, a mem
ber of the legislative council of New
foundland, in the weekly “Canada”
"It seems incredible,” he continues,
"that in all the immense multitude of
people aboard the liner nobody thought
of this simple solution. It Is one that
would have immediately commended it
self to a Newfoundlander, and it is one
that has won historical recognition
through the most amazing escape in the
whole annals of authentic adventure.
Drift 1,600 Mlles on Floe.
"I refer to the famous ice floe journey
of the survivors of the Arctic steamer
Polaris, who, in April. 1873, were picked
up by the Newfoundland sealing steamer
Tigress on .an ice floe on the Grand
Banks, after having drifted some 1.600
miles, their absolutely unique voyage
having occupied 193 days.
"The ship had been crushed In the ice
in North Greenland waters the previous
November, and, as is the Invariable prac
tice in these regions, they abandoned the
ice-gored hull and took to the floes in
order to reach the land. A storm came
up and the floe was driven southward.
For six months it was their floating
home.
"This, however, though tlie most re
markable case of its kind, is by no means
the only case of shipwrecked people es
caping death by taking refuge on an ice
berg. Whenever a Newfoundland sealing
steamer Is crushed by the pack—as hap
pens to one or other of the flotilla almost
every spring -the crew' at once betake
themselves to the nearest floes with their
clothing, provisions, boats, and other im
pediments, and there remain until some
others of the fleet come upon them and
take them aboard”

The wreck resulted in three being killed
and 75 injured, eight seriously.
The injured were placed beneath the
trees in the open air, as the day was
excessively hot, and there the physi
cians went among them, ministering to
them and alleviating the suffering
Scores of Dalton women sat beside
the cots, fanning the injured and giv
ing them water. Hundreds of people
thronged the streets, many remaining
around the depot to get latest news
from the scene of the wreck.

were so badly injured that they could
not be taken through the doors of the

FACTS PROVE ABSURD
CLAIMS MADE TO 122
DELEGATESBY WILSON
WASHINGTON. June 13.—Their pa
tience exhausted by statements Issued
from the Wilson headquarters in which
a lead in delegates is claimed over
Speaker Clark, the Clark managers
have made a close analysis of the Wil
son figures. The paper total of the
New Jersey candidate is reduced to 12?
votes, leaving him with an utmost
strength of 244 votes in the Baltimore
convention.
The last figures issued by the Wilson
management claimed for him a total
of 244 votes in the Baltimore conven
tion.
The last figures issued .by the Wil
son management claimed for him a to
tal of 366 delegates, and conceded 349
delegates to Clark.
As a matter of fact,. Clark has a
sure total of 490 delegates, as against
244 at the very utmost for Wilson.
Following is the Clark analysis of
the Wilson figures, state by state:
"The table gives him 76 In Pennsyl
vania, when in fact he is certain of
only 40, which is well known to ail
who are familiar with the Pennsylva
nia situation.
"Wisconsin had preferential prima
ries, Speaker Clark carried four dis
tricts, which certainly gives him 8.
Clark headquarters has positive infor
mation Insuring the speaker nine votes
at least from Wisconsin.
“The Wilson table claims all the Wis
consin delegation of 24.
Has No Votes in Ohio.
"The table gives Wilson 19 in Ohio.
The state convention has instructed
the Ohio delegation to vote as a unit
for Governor Harmon, so that these 19
votes should not be counted for Wil
son.
“There are eight Wilson men. or men
with leaning toward Wilson, in the
Michigan delegation, but it is by no
means certain that they will vote for
Wilson, as they are uninstructed. The
Wilson table claims 15 in Michigan.
"There are but seven men In the
Tennessee delegation who are not in
favor of Speaker-Clark. Eight of the
delegates are instructed for Clark and
nine more pledged. The Wilson table
gives Wilson twelve in Tennessee. Gov
ernor Wilson is not certain of receiv
ing more than three or five votes in the
Tennessee delegation.
"The Wilson table counts fifteen
from Virginia, where. In fact, there are
but five men on the Virginia delegation
who are friendly to the Wilson candida
cy; but as the delegation is uninstruct
ed# the action of this delegation is in
doubt.
"In the Louisiana delegation there
are 13 Clark men out of 20. The re
mainder are divided between Wilson
and Underwood. The Wilson table
claims ten from Louisiana.
raise Claims in Maine.
"The Wilson table claims eight from
Maine. Three of the members of the
Maine delegation have a leaning to
ward Governor Wilson. But as the del
egation is uninstructed, its action is in
doubt.
"The Wilson table cotints New Hamp
shire. A preference vote was taken in
tlie New Hampshire state convention,
tn which Speaker Clark received the
unanimous Indorsement of the conven
tion. and members of the delegation ad
dressed the convention, stating that
they would be bound by the vote taken
in the convention, and pledged them
selves to vote for Clark.

men. one Wilson man. and two unde
cided. If four members of the dele
gation were to vote for Clark, under
the unit rule, the entire six votes would
be cast for Clark on the first ballot.
“The Wilson figures count Utah with
six. which is without good reason. The
Utah deb gates will undoubtedly fall 'in
line with the rest of the West for
Clark, as their delegation is the only
uninstructed delegation west of thi
Missouri river. ,
"In Porto Rico the latest informa
tion is that the regular delegation,
backed by Committeeman D. H. Field
is for Clark. This delegation is con
tested by the so-called Native Porto
Rican Democracy, which instructed
these delegates for Wilson. Accord.ng
to a decision of the court in Porto
Rico, it has been determined that tlie
Field organization is the regular party
in Porto Rico.
A Claim That Is Lauohable.
"The claim of two for Wilson in Illi
nois and one in Arizona is laughable.
Clark carried Illinois by 140.900 ma
jority, and he carried practically every
voting precinct in Arizona in preferen
tial primaries and had a majority of
about ten to one over .Wilson in the
state. There is no ground for the
claim of any delegates in either slate
for any candidate except Clark.
"The Wilson table counts two in
West Virginia for Governor Harmon.
Ignoring the action of the West Vir- «
gina sta.te convention, which in
structed Its delegates in the entire
state to vote for Clark, and to vote on
all questions as a unit.
“The Wilson table, by some feat of
mathematical legerdemain, ignores the
result of the Massachusetts primaries,
and takes the 36 votes of that state
away from Clark. Governor Foss is
not a candidate and has repeatedly
stated that he is not. according to our
information, and the 36 votes of Massa
chusetts will be cast for Clark, who
carried the preferential primaries.
“Speaker Clark received more votes
in each congressional district and in
the state at large than any delegate
who had printed over his name a pledge
for any other candidate. These votes
instructed delegates to vote for Speaker
Clark.
This Is the Real Standing.
