Western Senator Declares That
He's Not a. Bull Moose, Nor
Is He a Land Crab.
WASHINGTON. .July n.—"Ar- you
a Bull Moose?" asked one senator of
a Western progressive with Roosevelt
leaning.
"No," replied the Westerner mourn
fully; “but I will not join Taft's party -
the political land crabs. I never could
progress backward."
"Then what is your zoological classi
fication?" persisted the questioner.
"Politically speaking." replied the
Westerner, "I think i'il join Woodrow
Wilson. The Belgian hare runs like

STABBED AND HURT
LIKE EUGENE GRACE.
YOUTH OF 17 DIES
After lingering for two months, the
entire lower part of his body paralyzed
like lhat of Eugene H. Grace. Horace
Dodson, a seventeen-yea:-old youth
who was stabbed in the spine by a
drunken negro in Decatur street, near
Butler, died this afternoon in Grady
hospital.
Oscar Dewberry, the slay, i. was
chased by Detectives George Bulla: d
and Doyal and captured within a short
distance of the scene of the cutting.
He has since been confined in th"
Tower, and at the next session of the
grand jury will be indicted for mur
der. Dodson's home is in Pulton street.
FINANCE COMMITTEE
AGAIN TRIES TO CLEAR
CITY’S PLANT TANGLE
Fearing that the contract with the
Destructor Unmpan.v of "New York for a
garbage dispo.-al anil electric power
plant is hopelessl.' entangled, the
finance committee of < ouneil met this
afternoon to make another effort at an
adjustment.
After giving every assurance the
council that the contract would be car
ried out. the company now declines to
sign it unless a number of amendments
are made. The board of health will,
submit a unanimous recommendation,
agreed upon at a meeting yesterday,
that the amemiiiwnfs be granted. Sotrw
of the member- of the finance commit
tee are skeptical, however.
Local financiers haye refused to un
derwrite the contract for the $100,600
power plant, but if the city officials will
grant a year additional for the comple
tion of the plant and allow the De
structor Company to retain the title of
It. it is proposed to begin work al
once.

SMITH BIS
VANISHED
AGAIN
Papers All Ready. But When
Officers Call for Absconder
at Cell He’s “Out.”
EL PASO. TEX.. July 12.—Wily J.
Wylie Smith, the absconding Atlanta,
Ga.. bank wrecker, is breathing the
fresh, free air of the Mexican chapar
rals once more.
Like Mother Hubbard's cupboard,
when American Consul T. D. Edwards
went tn look in Hie cell of the Juarez
jail, after arrangements hail been made
tn honor extradition papers and the
Pinkertons al Atlanta toJd to come
ahead, the cell was bare.
Will o' the Wisp Wylie was not there.
It's just barely possible that Mr. Smith
is pondering over old times in Atlanta
behind the bars of a jail in Chihuahua.
A host of folks from United States Am
bassador Wilson, who worked extreme
ly hard to get the Madero government
to consent to extradition, on down Io
the greaser who had to feed Wylie his
daily gruel—will be mighty glad if
thaUs so, but that wouldn't be Wvlie's
way.
ONE THING CERTAIN.
HE WAS IN PRISON.
one thing is certain. Smith was in
prison wlien Ihe rebels took Chihua
hua and was a prisoner during their
regime. He was shown no favors and
was kept under strict guard, according
to American Consul Edwards.
Ambassador Wilson took it for
granted that he was still there and got
the extradition papers all ready.
But today Mr. Edwards received
word i hat all efforts to locate Smith tn
the Juarez prison had failed and that it
was more than likely he had been freed
when tlte Federal regime was resumed.
.Mr. Edwards wired ahead to Marion
I.etcher. American consul at Chihua
hua, who is now making an investiga
tion.

By Percy IT. Wbitiim;.
r'QNCE Df] LF7ON BALL PARK. July
11. The Crackers were awarded the see
ond game of today’s double-header by
the score of 9 to 0.
Th# l New Orleans players made it so
evident that they were playing for time
and for rain to stop the contest before It
bad reached the five innings which would
have made it a legal game that, after
repeated warnings. Umpires O’J'oolp and
Carpenter forfeited the game to the At
lanta team in the third inning.
At the time the game was given to the
Crackers, ihe score was 4 to 0 in their I
favor, and likely to remain that way,
for Waldorf was pitching well, the play
ers were according him splendid support
and were bitting like fiends.
When I’mplre O’Toole announced that
the game was forfeited. Field Captain
Johnston made a feeble kick, but evident
ly realizing the Justice of the decision
soon desisted.
