FAIR MANGE TO HEfIGH 50,000! Admission Fees Will More Than Pay Expense of Exposition. Birminghamers Welcomed. ■—~ With the knowledge that the "Made-I In>-Atlanta" exposition has paid its own i way and they won't have to go down iij i their individual pockets to make up a | shortage, the stockholders today pre-I pared to receive the crowds of late- ! comers. From the way the morning visitors came in it was evident the ' next two days would bring a handsome j profit to the treasury. J K. Orr, the newly elected presi-i dent of the Southern Merchants asso- I • elation, made the announcement in ad dressing a delegation of Birmingham visitors, that the exposition had taken in enough dimes at the door to pay all of its expenses through the close to-| morrow night. The surplus probably i will be used as the nucleus of a fund for financing next year's show, for the _ exposition is to bi an annual affair. The total attendance for the ten days of the exhibit will reach about 50,000 persons. The Birmingham business men who came over to see how Atlanta does things found a real Atlanta welconti. They wire taken over the exposition' by a reception committee, given i luncheon at the Capital City ciub, mo tored around town and out to East Lake and told everything they desired ' to know . The party included John W. | Sibley, president of the Chamber of | Commerce, and 25 of the most public spirited citizens of the .Alabama m - tropoiis. BAILIFF ARRESTING NEGRESS STABBED IN !

Many Policemen Members of Desperado Bands or Entirely Under Their Power. NEW YORK. Aug. 9. You van have your enemy killed for $lO. if you hire a New York gunman. That’s the low est price, and it ranges up to SSOO. in the s< licdule of crime brought out since the Ros nth.il inurdet has turned the searchlight on tin "Apaches of New York.” The system by which police officers and the gangmen curry out their work, the remuneration and pro tection. the plotting and execution have all been shown. No dime novel author would have dared to weave sucii i plot and expect even youthful readers to be lieve it. There are many gangs on the East Side, sometimes enemies, sometimes working for a common end; but they live by crime and their livelihood is made possible by the protection given them by the police. They pay the debt by crooked politics, repeating in elec tions. frightening away honest voters, swinging precincts for ward leaders. The system has strange ramifica tions. A clew found in the crookedest alley of the East Side, if followed through blind twists and turns, will lead uji to a man high in the counsels of the police department. Policemen and Gangs. How the gunmen of New York have become a powerful adjunct of the gam blers who are in league with the police system was revealed by the Rosenthal murder. How some of the policemen w hom Commissioner Waldo is daily de fending in statements have not only developed the gunmen, but assisted in organizing them into murderous bands, is a story that will amaze the reader. The Rosenthal murder has shown that, nothing is too small and no crime too great to stand in the way of the "system." Murder is ordered, or bought and paid for,las any commod ity, whenever It is necessary, and the murderers are taken care of by certain corrupt political leaders and police of ficials in the district until they are needed again. To the credit of the politicians and the police it must be said that the number who would con done a murder is very small. A fair estimate of the union rates charged bj the gunmen of New York for executing the orders of their em ployers follows: Slash on the cheek (as a favor), up to $lO Shot in the leg $1 to $25 Shot in the arm $5 to $35 Throwing a bomb $5 to SSO Murder $lO to SSOO A few of the gunmen make murder a THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN ANT) NEWS. FRIDAY.

Gangs Used to Win Elections. : Evert election brings out the power 'of the "system." A leader finds that Ihe is in danger of losing his district • (through the vigorous campaign of hi- • | rival. He and his henchmen then go to the gunmen or repeaters, give the • I word and the man is elected, even if murder is committed. The repeaters are unmolested because word has come though the police captains that the ' bands helped the leader, and they know that before long tribute and political favors will be forthcoming. One of the most powerful bands of murderous hoodlums who work like • j wolves—-bravely when in large num- ibi rs—is the nondescript following • •lied the Gophers Tle ir bailiwii k stretches all along the western side of the cijy from Greenwich village to Fifty-ninth street. They number in all about 300 men. ranging in age from Ifi to 40, and large is the list of crimes they have committed. Murder is no snore than a pastime, and felonious as saults, robberies and destruction of I business when it will benefit some one in tile band are mere incidentals to their existence. They will murder for money and ’ trust to their influence with the poli ticians to "square" the whole thing ■ I through the "system." They will mur ' derously assault any man who crosses i their path at a tangent to their own smooth way of doing business. Several of the most at 'oeiou- murders eve i committed in this city are charged to , them, and yet the guilty men walk away, brush the dirt off their clothes i and get ready for the next event. M.my ■ of their members are policemen. Don't* Look Like Bad Men. One of the best and most forcible il lustrations of how the gunmen have ■ worked into the good graces of the ]>n i -flee within the last two years is given every day in Seventh avenue, when the Paul Kelly band make their head . quarters. A more thriving, more pros perous looking set of men of their call ing could not be found anywhere in th city, and any day, every day. afternoon or night, several of them may be seen standing in front of their "club house," which is almost as pretentious as that of the Sam Paul association. i 1 They do not look like the murderous i type one might expect, but in well , made clothes, clean shaven faces and good shoes they could pass easily for i persons living at the high-class hotels i near by Their members come and go . as they please, revolvers or no re- t volvers, except at odd timers when the i police make a “raid" on the club. The r raid is the usual fruitless one, with au • occasional arrest and a fine or dis r charge of all the prisoners on account • of insufficient evidence. Harry Horowitz, called "Gyp the Blood.” who is wanted as a participant in the Rosenthal murder, is the leader r of a band of young outlaws who have t terrorized Harlem in the neighborhood t of Lenox avenue and 116th street for many years. They have openly defled the honest policemen, insulted women ' and young girls with impunity, at tacked aged men and robbed them, sal- • lied downtown into the homes of un s protected women and robbed them, shot up gambling rooms and kept the whole ■ neighborhood in a turmoil. They have ‘ bullied anil browbeaten the policeman ' honestly trying to do his duty by threatening to write to ('oniniissloner ' Waldo and complain or “frame up" charges against the patrolman that will make trouble. Horowitz Outlaw Leader. < , Horowitz himself is a tail, lanky, , yellow-faced youth, with a stoop and a , cringing way that certainly would not 1 mark him as avers bad man w here real men figure. In spite of all his bravado, , he has gone to the captain of the dis trict crying like a baby because he f feared the police suspected him of a , crime. And when a particularly atro . clous crime did point to him he found influence to reach the "system" and he I was not punished. He was born in 115th street and , reared in the district where his gun men make their headquarters. He re cruitd his bandits from the neighbor j hood and from every other section of i the city that would turn out possible good nun for business. He aggrievi d , many a Hariem family by drawing Into £ his element a young son who had j given promise of amounting to some thing. The temper of the gunmen and their fear of their fellow gangsters was never more strikingly shown than when > William Shapiro. dri\er of the noted gi f automobile used by the slayers of i Herman Rosenthal, was brought into <'oroner Feinberg's court and put unth a file of in oil -s questioning in t:i presence of "W.iitey" Lewis and Eran ('irocci, two of the men under suspi cion. It was not the law that Shapiro i feared—not the blue coaled men who i had sworn to uphold the law. He quiv ' ered and turned pale undi r the gaze of the other prisoners, fol- he feared th.it he would be forced to tell the iruth am ; his old pais would "get" him as th -y I got that other who "squealed," Herman I Rosenthal, the gambler.

NEW YORK. Aug. 9.—Under the ex i pert dirt - tinn of the flower of the gen i oral si.ut of the United States army, | nearly JO.OOo troops has iust begun *o ■ demonstrate the possibilities of an Lirmy 4> sc'-ndlng upon N<-w York with i 'ls millions upon millions of treasure. | ’is art, wealth and more spoils of war •than any commander in history ovei dreamed would exist Tyvo opposing I armies, the Red and the Blue, will take .part in the tactical problem, in which | the main question is: | "Are the great vaults and treasure | palaces of New York, its great shlp j ping kes and its use as a base of op ! orations safe from a foreign foe?" The actual movement of the troops began yesterday, when national guard ] regiments from the New England states s’arted to take positions along the Housatonic river in eastern Connecti cut. The actual fighting begins tomorrow. The official title of the games being played is the Connecticut maneuver I campaign. General Bliss in Command, Its chief point is Bridgeport, and General Tasker H. Bliss, commanding tlie Department of the East, is direct ing the play. The game has two pe riods. The first is devoted to instruc tion; the second to the actual attack and defense upon New York. General Albert L. Mills, formerly su perintendent of West Point, is to com mand the army that seeks to ravage New York. General Frederick A. Smith, from the Department of the Missouri, is to see that General Mills doesn't suc ceed. In the battle array, 25 miles long, with aeroplanes humming over the troops, elevated guns theoretically tear ing the wings to bits, and wireless flashes telling the commanders tvhat | the enemy is doing, will be all the pomp Lind circumstances of war yvitnessed. Wireless telephones, telegraph wires i and flags will be worked for communi- I cation, with the heliograph, the scien tific evolution of the Apache Indians' mirror, filling in the gaps. Two hundred regular officers are de tailed to watch the game and Instruct the troops. Operating in Big Triangle. The scene of the operations will be generally confined to a truncated trian gle, yvhose lower apex is cut off by a twelve-mlle line stretching between Stratford and New Haven. The base of the triangle, about 30 miles long, reaches from Waterbury, where the right wing ot the advancing Red di vision will be flung, to Danbury, which will he the western mobilization point of the Blue defenders. Another side of this triangle sretches some twenty miles flom Strat ford to Danbury. This theater of wUr. comprising roughly 450 square miles, is pronounced by army experts to be ex cellently adapted to war maneuvers. It includes a great variety of rolling ground, interspersed with abrupt hills and valleys. Several rivers and their tributaries also add to the complica tions of the transport problem. Eorty-ninth street and Third avenue l after the shooting and that they left your car there. Weren't you lying? Didn't you take those men uptown?” "Yes," said Shapiro, glancing nerv ously about. "Whitey" Lewis and "Da. go Erank" Cirocci were in the room and looking at him. “Whitey” was boring into Shapiro’s soul with his llttlb sharp eyes, "Dago Erank” was watching the chauffeur from under drooping eyelids. Both hung on his answer. “Is that one of the men you drove from the Metropole after the murder?" the attorney asked, pointing to “Dago I l-'rank." S.iapiro let his eyes rest upon I his fellow prisoner for only a second. He put his hand to his face and shook his head. "No, I didn't see them good." he re plif d. "Is that one of the men you drove that night?" asked Mr. Whitman, point ing to "Whitey” Lewis. Shapiro seem ed struck with a spasm of fear. "1 didn't see 'em Honest, Mr Whit man, I didn’t see 'em good." was the terrified response.
