Freddie Smith, six years old, of 162 Cen tral avenue, was crushed to death under the wheels of a street car this afternoon as he ran out into the street to meet his mother, w'ho was coming home to a late dinner. The lad dodged a heavy truck and fell in front of the trolley car. His mother, Mrs. Carl Smith, looked away as the heavy wheels of both trucks passed over the little body, taking from it the semblance of humanity. Before she could reach the child's side, Ollie Doster, a barber, of 109 Woodward avenue, who knew Mrs. Smith, leaped from the car that crushed the child and bore the frantic woman to her home a few doors up the street. He and her aged mother kept her there until a score of men. led by J. F. McKowan, raised the car oft the ground and removed the body. The body was horribly mangled under the car. Motorman R. L. Brumelow, of HO West Georgia avenue, fainted. His conductor was O. Cater, of 24 Woodson street. The motorman said later that he was not going more than four -miles an hour when the child rushed from in front of a wagon and fell, not in front of his car but under the very wheels. He brought the car to a .stop in less than its own length. Both the street -ar men con cerned were taken to the station house, pending an official investigation. Motorman Becomes Hysterical at Station. R. L. Brumbeluw, 111) West Georgia avenue, motorman of the ear, who was arrested by Call Officer Roberts im mediately after the accidi nt occurred, became hysteiical at police headquar ters, while a case of w reckless driving was being docketed against him, and could give no coherrent account of the affair. Eye-witnesses who accompanied the motorman to headquarters, said that young Smith scurried between two wagons which were drawn up at the Central avenue curb near Garnett street, and ran directly into the car. Conductor O. Kater said thay, the mo torman did not see the lad until the car was upon him. Chief Beavers fixed Brumbelow’s bond at SSOO and set a hearing for Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock. Of ficials of the Georgia Railway and Electric Company gave the bond. No case was made against Kater. WHITMAN OFFERS $5,000 FOR CAPTURE OF TWO GANGSTERS NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—Despairing of any marked success from police "ef forts" to arrest “Lefty Louie” and Har ry Horowitz, alias "Gyp the Blood.” District Attorney Whitman will offer $5,000 reward for their capture. He hopes thus to appeal to the cupidity of the East Side gangsters, who may know the hiding place of the two men ac cused of firing the shots that killed Herman Rosenthal. The offer of a reward is practically the last step which Mr. Whitman can take to effect the capture of the two gun men whom the police so far have failed to arrest, and the knowledge that he intends offering the reward is taken to indicate that he has little hope of the police in the future being more suc cessful than in the past. His action in going over the heads of the police department with such an offer is without precedent in this city. PANAMA CONFERENCE BILL WINS IN SENATE BY 48 18 AFTER FIGHT WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—The sen ate. after a long debate, accepted the report of the Panama canal bill con ferees by a vote of 48 to 18 this after noon.

BOSTON, Aug. 16.—Henry Clay Frick, a Pittsburg steel magnate and Prides Crossing pride, is at odds with Northshore society over his billion-dol lar lawn fete planned for tonight. So ciety is not'coming out the way it ought, Mr. Frick decided when the an swers to his invitations began to ar rive. Mr. Frick in this crisis, perhaps, turned to the Gospel for comfort. At I any rate, his answer was to emulate a ] Gospel example and "go out into the highways and byways” of Prides Cross- I ing and the surrounding towns for guests to fill the vacant places. And as a result, two Beverly barbers, the Magnolia baker and several others not acceptable to the Northshore elite will stroll about the beautiful Frick lawn tonight. Publicity, the failure of the invited guests to respond properly and a gentle snub from President Taft are held responsible for Frick's change of plans. • Be that as it may, the billion-dollar fete won't be nearly so pretentious as was at first planned. Frick has cut and slashed his own ’•rogratn until the Northshore groans.

The Cracker team arrived here this morn ing, and went into action with the Gull team In the first of a three-game se ries, beginning at 4 o’clock. The Crackers were somewhat dis gusted with their five straight defeats at the hands of the Pels, and to this feeling was added the thoughts of re venge for the three-game defeat they suffered at the hands of Mobile on the last trip here. Being In a savage frame of mind it was expected that they would fight hard for vindication, and they put up a scrappy article at the start. In the second, a double, an error and a single scored a pair for the Crackers. The Cracker line-up appeared normal again, Agler having recovered from the spike wound he received In New Orleans, and was again on first. THE GAME. FIRST INNING.

McElveen IM FREED OF GEM CHARGE Court Exonerates Attorney Whose Office Was Searched in Diamond Mystery. R. R. Jackson, attorney, member of the firm of Gober & Jackson, whose offices were entered by detectives two weeks ago and the safe searched for the jewels in the famous diamond trunk mystery, was entirely exonerated today by Magistrate J. B. Ridley, before whom the case, charging the lawyer with illegal possession of the gems, was set to be tried. The case was never brought to trial. It was settled out of court when the Jewelers Protective association paid a fee of SIOO. In rendering his judgment, Justice Ridley said that it appearing that Go ber & Jackson had performed services under this agreement and had recov ered the jewelry they were entitled to hold the stones as a lien to secure the payment of their fee. He assessed the costs on the jewelers association. GOVERNOR SWAMPED WITH BILLS SENT TO HIM TO BE APPROVED The next three days Governor Brown will be the busiest man in Georgia. Nearly 200 local bills and a score of general bills, big and little, await his action. By the terms of a crude statute the governor is required to act upon a measure within five days after the leg islature adjourns, but no such com panion injunction is placed upon the engrossing clerks. As a result, a bill may hit the executive office five min utes before the governor's time has elapsed and there is no respite. It must be acted upon or it becomes a law automatically. The governor said today that he would clean up the local legislation be. fore he plunged into the general bills. A Cordele charter measure, opposed by i swarm of Crisp county residents, was under consideration today. The bill is fostered by Representative Gower and probably will be signed. 0 2 0 0 2 0 000 0 0 0 filed to Maloney.

Clay, wife slayer, condemned to die for his crime, will never be used to restore the sight of Johft Cashin, the blind paper seller of Atlanta, who thinks that he could see again through the transplanting of the orbs. Clay’s family has objected. John Glay, brother of the condemned slayer, says he will never permit mutilation of the body. Though the sins of the brother be as scarlet, the love that brother bears brother lives. As Robert Clay dies, so shall he bo buried. This is the family's ultimatum. And the family has absolute control of the dis position of a body of a man the courts have decreed unfit to live. Georgia law provides that the nearest relatives of a man who suffers execu tion on the gallows shall have the right to dispose of the body, unless the con demned man himself makes provision for its disposition. Under this statute, John Clay will claim and bury the body of the wife killer, provided the su preme court affirms the sentence of the trial judge. Brother Refuses To Consider Proposal. The proposed operation was submit ted to John Clay. His refusal was final. "My brother does not know me," he said, and earnestness was written tn every line of his face and reflected in his eyes. “I have called on him re peatedly at tlie Tower and begged him |to speak to me. He did not recognize me. He does not recognize the fate that may await him. He Is not re sponsible for anything he does now. He was not responsible when he killed his wife. “We like to think of him as the baby of our family, the best loved of all w» hoys. I could not bear to think of his being buried, mutilated. I would like to see Cashin’s sight restored, but I think the operation Impossible, and I could not think of Its being at the expense of my brother, who has suf fered so much already." 1 SOUTHERN LEAGUE AT BIRMINGHAM: R.
