H PROTECTION
FROM STRIKERS
English Workmen, Beaten and
Robbed by Thugs, Appeal to
Home Secretary.
LONDON, July 13.—The case of Pat
rick Sullivan, the 62-year-old man who
was badly Injured by a strike picket at
Tilbury, robbed of his last shilling and
compelled to obtain a pass to walk in
the road, will be raised in the house of
commons today.
The home secretary will be asked
whether he is aware that thousands of
men are hiding in the docks, afraid to
go home because gangs of men lie in
wait for them in back streets and beat
them and kick them because they are
working to maintain their wives and
children, and whether he proposes to
provide sufficient protection to put an
end to this state of affairs, and the
consequent starvation of women and
children.
A story is told of an attack on a lad
of eighteen, who. like Sullivan, was at
Tilbury in search of work. Miss Borth
wick, who is a zealous worker among
the poor in the East End. was a wit
ness.
Police Do Not Interfere.
•‘He was crouching under the wheels
of a cart,” she said, 'when 1 came on
the scene. The cart was surrounded by
a number of bullies. He was small and
appeared almost a child. The men soon
became tired of mere jeering and made
efforts to bring him out of his refuge.
When one dragged him forward others
kicked him.
"The lad was a deplorable sight when
they had finished with him. He was
covered with blood, and one of his ears
was half torn off. 1 think the worst
part of the business was the wav these
men strolled off when they had finished
torturing him.
•'There were police at the end of the
road, but this did not seem to worry
them in the slightest.
"In the East End," added Miss Borth
wick, “I came across a carpenter lying
senseless in the road. I learned that
he had been struck down by one of
these roving bands —although he had
nothing whatever to do with the
strike."

“My Heart Is in the Work in
Atlanta,” Baptist Tabernacle
Pastor Writes.
Dr. Robert S. MacArthur will remain
in Atlanta to carry on the great work
of tiu Tabernach begun by Dr. I.en G.
Broughton, now in London.
The famous Baptist minister, who is
at present in the North, has so written
a prominent member of the church
which was recently seriousl.v divided,
but which has patched up its differ
ences most harmoniously.
Friends of Dr. MacArthur had been
much worried lately by the fear that
he would respond to the unanimous call
issued by Calvary Baptist church, of
New York, to return there. Dr. Mac-
Arthur. however, dissipates these fears
in his letter, in v.hi h he speaks most
enthusiastically of his work here.
Dr. MacArthur writes that his "hon
or, duty and pleasure” have led him to
his decision, and adds: “My heart is in
the work."
During the summer months mothers
of voting children should watch for any
unnatural looseness of the bowels.

ATLANTA REALTY
EXCHANGE SOON
Election of Charles P. Glover
to Head the Association Is
Expected to Pave Way.
The election of Charles P. Glover a*
president of the Atlanta Real Estate
Men’s association is believed by many
to mean that a real estate exchange,
run on the plan followed in many other
cities, will soon be opened in Atlanta.
Mr. Glover's election as head of the or
ganization was opposed only by that
part of the membership against the
formation of an exchange, which he is
known to favor. The matter will, it is
believed, be brought up at at early
meeting.
Other officers chosen at the anniver
sary dinner of the association last
night at the Cate Durand, were Harris
G. White, sales manager *of Ralph O.
Cochran's agency, vice president; G.
Ward Wight, of M. C. Kiser Company,
secretary, and J. W. Dobbins, president
of J. W. Dobbins & Company, treasur
er. All of the officers were elected
unanimously, as the choice of Mr.
Glover was made unanimous as soon as
it was seen that he had a majority of
the votes.
Ralph O. Cochran Praised.
The occasion was the second anni
versary of the association and was pre
sided over by the retiring president.
Ralph O. tmehran, who was the recip
ient of many compliments for his work
as head of the association during its
first two years.
The report of the secretary showed a
marked improvement in the association
for the past year. It has increased in
membership from 153 a year ago to
nearly 200 at present, and numbers on
its roll practically every real estate
dealer of repute in Atlanta.
M. C. Kiser. G. Ward Wight and
<'ha rles P. Glover, who attended the
national convention recently held in
Louisville, made interesting talks of
the trip and urged that Atlanta seek
the convention for 1914 and send a
large delegation to Winnipeg, Canada,
next year.
