SLAYER’S
EYES FOR
BLIND
MAN
Cornea of Wife Murderer’s
Orbs May Give Paper
Seller Sight.
Seeing through the eyes of a
murderer for the rest of his life
is the hope of John Cashin, a
peaceful, blind paper seller of At
lanta. At his earnest behest ex
pert plans are now being made
to remove the orbs of a man that
the law says shall not live in or
der to restore Cashin’s power to
see the things of the world in
which he has lived for years in
total, hopeless darkness.
John Cashin would literally apply the
ancient Mosaic doctrine of an eye for
an eye. The law has said that as Rob
ert L Clay killed his wife, Robert L.
(.'lay must die. Twelve jurors have de
rided that earthly use for Robert L.
Clay has passed. His physical being
must pay the cost.
Rut John Cashin can see
‘hrough the eyes of the slayer. Th. i.-.a
1 lay’s body die, Cashin would have his
eyes see, but see from the brain and for
the soul of one who has never offended
rnun-made laws and who is therefore
entitled to live.
Clay Hopes for Life;
Blind Man for Sight.
Clay waits in the Tower in hope
that a new chance for life will be given
him by the highest court of his state,
but as he waits on the judges so Cash
in waits on him. For in his death, the
man who sells papers in darkness at
Whitehall and Alabama streets, hopes
for vision of sunshine, of the power to
sec his fellow man, of the right to
mingle as a member not as a depend
ent of society.
He has planned and specialists of
Atlanta have admitted that there is so
much feasibility in his scheme that
they are actually investigating the pos
sibility of transplanting the cornea of
the murderer’s eyes that see into the
head of the citizen who is sightless that
he may see when the law has been sat
isfied with the wife slayer’s life.
The plan originated in the brain of
Cashin. His earnest, repeated, request
was the cause of specialists consider
ing even for a moment an operation
said to be unknown to ocula" science.
Consults Eminent
Specialists on Plan.
Cashin has the papers that he sells
read him each day. One day early
this summer the news was read him
that a jury had imposed the death pen
alty on Clay. The judge had ordered
his execution in July. He immediately
became obsessed wdth the idea "this
man must die, why should not I use
his eyes?”
The idea grew with the days. Cashin
finally decided to consult a physician.
He had once been examined by Dr. J.
N. Ellis. He called on him again.
His plan, as bizarre as Poe ever im
agined, was submitted to the physician
as a matter of fact business. Dr. Ellis
at first gave the man no hope. But
Cashin was insistent. His own mind
told him that the operation was pos
sible. He pleaded with the physician.
He finally succeeded.
It was decided that if his optic
nerves are still serviceable after his
years of blindness there is the possi
bility that the eyes of a man that has
read the death sentence might make
him see.
To Ask Dr. Calhoun
To Make Examination.
Dr. Phinizy Calhoun, noted oculist,
will be consulted and asked to examine
Cashin. -He will decide whether his
optic nerves will admit of possibility
of the transplanting of the eyes.
Here Is the plan:
As soon as Clay has paid the pen
alty of tjis crime, his eyes will be re
moved before the body is taken from
the death chamber. They will be
placed in a warm saline solution and
Continued on Pago Two.

STEEL BILL VETO
OVERRIUDEN 81
HOOSE
Measure Taken Up Almost Im
mediately After Being Re
ceived From President.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—The house
this afternoon passed the steel bill over
the president’s veto by a vote of 173
to 83.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 14.—Unde
terred by the action of the Democratic
and insurgent Republican coalition in
the house, which passed the wool bill
over his veto yesterday, President Taft
today sent a message to congress in
which he vetoed the steel bill, passed by
the house and senate, and sent to him
for his signature.
Earlier in the day there had been ru
mors that the president was so bitter
over the failure of ‘‘standpat” Repub
licans to attend yesterday’s session
and support his stand that he would
allow the steel bill to become a law,
and only the president’s message end
ed these rumors.
The president based his veto of the
steel bill—the metal schedule of the
tariff —on the ground that It was
framed ‘‘without consulting the reports
of the tariff board, and provided only
for revenue and not for the protection
of American industries.”
Explains His Objections.
In a lengthy message the president
enumerated his objections under the
principle heads:
First, he took exceptions to the act of
congress in overlooking the publica
tions of the tariff board, and chided the
house for paying no attention to the
findings of this body.
Second, he objected to the schedule
because it provides a ariff for revenue
only and not for promotion.
Third, because of its tremendous im
mediate effect on millions of working
men and their families and hundreds
of millions of dollars worth of goods,
without first providing for a careful and
distinterested inquiry into the condi
tions of the whole industry.
In summing up his reason for with
holding his approval of the measure,
the president said:
Tariff Board Ignored.
“From the outset of my administra
tion I have advised a revision of the
tariff on a non-partisan study of
the facts. I have provided the means
for securing such information in the
appointment of a tariff board. Their
thorough work, already completed on
several schedules, has justified my con
fidence in this method. The principle is
indorsed by chambers of commerce and
boards of trade in almost every city of
importance in the country.
"The proposed bill has not been
framed on the basis of any such study
of the industry. Avowedly its rates
are fixed with no consideration of any
thing but revenue. The principle of
protection is disregarded entirely, and
therefore it is not too much to say that
the effect of these sweeping changes on
the welfare of those engaged in the
various industries has been disre
garded."
WANTED HUSBAND
ASKS GIRL WIFE HE
LEFT TO MEET HIM
Mrs. Mary McEachin Hutcheson, of
Brooker, Ga., who married Conway
Hutcheson, when he advertised for a
country girl as a wife, and who said she
was deserted by him, received a tele
gram from Hutcheson today.
Hutcheson wired from Milledgeville
that he would reach Atlanta late this
afternoon and asks that his wife meet
him at the station. The telegram hints
at a plausible explanation and a possi
ble reconciliation. The girl arranged to
meet him.
The girl, who is 20 years old. had
never seen Hutcheson until she answer
ed an advertisement, reading: "Wanted,
a good country girl for a wife; am a
rich Virginian."
Hutcheson visited the girl at her par
ents' home, and. despite the objections
of her father, the pair came to Atlanta
and were married August 1.

Deal Is Closed in Mobile
Whereby Popular Baseball
Chief Comes Back.
CHATTANOOGA. TENN., Aug. 14.
William Andrew Smith will manage
the Atlanta baseball club next year.
The contract has not been signed as
yet and will not be until the close of
the present season. But a verbal
agreement has been entered into and
BUI Smith will be in Atlanta September
17 to take over the club and to resume
the position from which he was de
posed after winning the pennant for
Atlanta in 1909.
Since that time the Cracker club has
had a succession of unsuccessful man
agers and apparently driven to desper
ation, the Atlanta Baseball association
has closed with the man who was'un
ceremoniously canned jl.st three years
ago.
Let Out by Andrews.
The news leaked out here when Man
ager Smith notified President O. B. An
drews, of the local club, that he would
not serve as Chattanooga's manager
again next year. This he did by wire
from Mobile.
Up to this time it was supposed that
Smith would return here next year.
Though lie has been particularly un
successful In Chattanooga, it was
deemed best to offer him the manage
ment a third year. When this deter
mination was made known to Smith, he
withheld his decision. At that time it
was not known what Smith had in
mind, but it later leaked out that he
was dickering with Atlanta. The deal
was finally closed in Mobile, and from
there Smith notified President Andrews
that he would return to Atlanta.
Jordan May Succeed Him,
It is virtually certain that the man
agement of the Chattanooga team next
year will go to "Kid" Elberfeld or to
Otto Jordan.
Bill Smith went to Atlanta as a
manager in 1906. Previous to that time
he had managed a pennant winner in
Macon, and he has had a long and suc
cessful career as manager and player
in various minor leagues. His first
year with Atlanta he had no luck, but
in 1907 he gave the Cracker club the
first pennant it had had in twenty
years.
With a pitching staff made up of
Russell Ford, “Hoot-Mon” McKenzie,
the late Rube Zeller. Roy Castleton and
Bob Spade, with a pair of catchers of
the caliber of Sid Smith and Ed
Sweeney, with Jim Fox, Otto Jordan,
Lou Castro and Bill Dyer in the in
field, and with Dode Paskert, George
Winters and Jesse Becker in the out
field, he had an aggregation that won
the pennant after one of the most ex
citing races of baseball’s history.
Team Riddled by Sales.
The following year the Crackers took
a slump, owing to the fact that the
team was riddled by drafts and sales,
but in 1909 Smith again got together a
pennant-winning team. The Crackers,
after a poor start and a bad slump that
lasted all through May, took the lead
late in June and did not give It up.
The team that year consisted of Rohn
and Henn, at first; Jordan, at second;
Scotty Walker, at third; Newton, short
stop; Lee, Bayless. Wintersand Moran,
outfielders; Smith and McMurray,
catchers; Rogers, Fisher. Bartley, Max
well, Atkins, Johns and Viebahn, pitch
ers.
The one-sldedness of the race made
the season a poor one financially and,
as Smith could not get along with the
baseball association over certain mat
ters of handling the team, he was
canned at the end of the season. Since
then he has managed the Buffalo and
Chattanooga teams with varied success.

Woman Kept Waiting
Three Hours for Cab

She Sent in Call for Vehicle
From Home.
Mrs. Annie L. Chambers, of 272
Formwait street, says it Is worth SB,OOO
to wait three and a half hours for a
cab. In two suits filed by herself and
her husband. O. G. Chambers, she asks
that amount of the Atlanta Baggage
and Cab Company for the company’s
delay in sending a call for her on
July 16.
Mrs. Chambers says she was serious
ly ill and called for the vehicle to carry
her one and a half blocks from No. 100
Crumley street to 272 Formwait street.
She asserts that she called the cab at
5 o’clock in the afternoon, and it did
not arrive until 8:30. The suit was filed
in city court today.
ISONEWHO
HAWKS GOODS, RULES
THE SUPREME COURT
According to the state supreme court a
peddler, in the meaning of the Georgia
law licensing vending, is the person who
actually goes out in the highways and by
ways and hawks his goods. A person who
may hire the peddler Is not a peddler
at all.
The court's definition came as the re
sult of an appeal from the judgment of
the superior court of Tattnall county
made by S. P. Smith, the sheriff, and other
county officers, who had been enjoined
from licensing .1. E. Whidden
Whidden, It seems, had peddled for a
Confederate veteran, who, under the law,
Is not required to pay a license.
The high court held that Whidden was
the peddler because he did the hawking,
and, therefore, the clause exempting Con
federate veterans did not apply to him.
ATLANTANS QUITTING
THE CIGARETTE HABIT;
SMOKE MORE CIGARS
The sale of cigarettes In Atlanta has
decreased 25 per cent since January,
according to statistics gathered at a
well known Whitehall street stand.
This applies to all classes of ciga
rettes. A partial explanation of this is
found in the fact that there has been
an increase in the cigar trade.
"1 know of no reason why this should
be,” said the proprietor, "unless smok
ers gradually are turning away from
cigarettes to cigars. It's a fact, how
ever, that fewer people are smoking
cigarettes in Atlanta."

NON-COM. OFFICER ROASTS
CAPTAIN AND IS ARRESTED
SAVANNAH, GA.. Aug. 14.—Offense
shown a United States army captain
while he is umpiring a baseball game
is sufficient provocation for the arrest
of a non-commissioned officer. This
precedent has been established at Kort
Screven, where a senior sergeant ma
jor, a man with a record of 25 years of
exemplary service, made a remark that
wasn’t exactly in accord with the cap
tain's ideas of respect to a superior of
ficer.
Baseball is a popular pastime at Fort
Screven. An officer who is keenly in
terested in the sport volunteered his
services as umpire. Then the inevita
ble happened. The captain's umpiring
didn't suit everybody, and some of the
players started in to roast his “limps.”
The captain tried to take the roasts in
the proper spirit, but a captain is ac
customed to being shown respect, and
it wasn’t long before his ire was
aroused.
Although the offending non-com. was
subjected to the indignity of arrest, the
matter was adjusted without a court
martial. Investigation developed the
fact that the remark was spoken in
jest.

U. S. VICE CONSUL TO
COLOMBIA KILLED BY

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.—Wm. B.
Mae Master, American vice and deputy
consul at Cartagena, Colombia, has
been assassinated. This news reached
the state department today.
Mae Master, who was an American
born in Colombia, was shot in the
back while hunting, apparently by’ one
of his guides.
Other attempts to murder him have
been foiled, several of the conspirators
having been jailed for participation in
the plot.
The state department has ordered an
Investigation.
NEW YORK YANKEES CAN
BUY PITCHER KEATING
BOSTON. Aug. 14.—The directors of the
I>awrence baseball club, of the New Eng
land league, have the authority to sell
Pitcher Ray H. Keating, of that club, to
the New York team, of the American
league, for $5,000.
Judge Morton, tn the equity session ot
the superior court, refused to issue an in
junction asked for by the plaintiff in the
suit of Joseph Sullivan against Louis
Pieper and Daniel A Moon. The defend
ants are directors of the Lawrence club,
and as such had agree'! to sell Keating
to the New York Americans for $6,000.
