FLINN PICKED TO HEAD N.Y.POLICE; MOTO QUIT Landlords Protest to Mayor Exposing of Names of Own ers of Resorts. NEW YORK, Aug 28.—William .1. Flynn, chief of the Eastern division of the United States secret service and formerly a deputy police commissioner, is to succeed Rhinelander Waldo as head of the police department, accord ing to reports around the city hall to day. Mayor Gaynor is reported to have sent a representative to see Flynn Sun day to sound him on the proposition. "How about Waldo?" Flynn is said to have asked this emissary. "Oh, Waldo is about ready to resign,” the representative is alleged to have replied. District Attorney Whitman announc ed that after hearing the evidence of several more bankers relative to de posits of Lieutenant Charles A Becker and the now justly celebrated civilian of the police department he would go to Millbrook, N. Y.. and confer with Justice Goff, who will preside at the John Doe hearings next Monday. While two suspects’ are held at Fon da, N. Y.. the search for “Gyp the Blood” and "Lefty Louie," the missing gun men wanted on Rosenthal murder indictments, continues in other quar ters. Landlords Protesting. Letters of indignant • protests from landlords are pouring in upon Mayor Gaynor because of the action of Police Commissioner Waldo In exposing the owners of properties housing illegal re sorts, resenting "police interference in private affairs." Among the names of the owners made public Is that of Sailors' Snug Harbor, a wealthy charitable institu tion on Staten Island; the Lorillard estate, that of the Lorillard family, millionaire tobacco manufacturers, and J. Edgar Leaycraft and Fdgar C. leaycraft, of the real estate firm of J. Edgar Leaycraft * Co., both promi nent in Methodist church and mission ary- work. The William Aster estate appears in Commissioner Waldo's list as the owner of two alleged gambling houses on West Forty-third street, which were raided In August and September of last year. Congressman’s Name, Too. The name of Congressman Jefferson N. Levy, of New York, is recorded as the owner of a gambling resort known as the New England Dramatic and Pleasure club, four times raided. Mr. Levy, in a statement tonight, declared that as> soon as he received notice of the character of his tenants he imme diately began dlspossessory proceed ings. but was unable to get rid of them. "The matter became such an annoy ance to me that in April last I sold the property- for less than its value to Felix Isman, who immediately conveyed it to William Funk, of Philadelphia," Mr. Levy- said. Other owners named are L. Napoleon Levy, who Is a brother of Congressman Levy; the Clarence Pell estate; the United States Trust Company, the Waldorf Realty Company, a dozen oth er prominent real estate concerns and a score of women. Dens Still Running. A newspaper today prints the charge that despite the avalanche of public opinion and the drastic investigations under way, more than a third of the gambling houses of the first dimension in this city are still open and doing business. This newspaper even gave the street addresses of the establish ments. The aldermanfc committee ap pointed to Investigate municipal cor ruption held a meeting in city hall to day and adopted a plan of procedure. The district attorney’s office received word today from Hot Springs, Ark., that two men suspected of being "Gyp the Blood” and "Lefty Louie” have been arrested there. Both are being de tained. It was at Hot Springs Sam Schepps was caught. VEDRINES TO TRY IN AMERICA FOR NEW AIR SPEED RECORDS PARIS, Aug. 28.—Pierre Jules Ve drines. the famous French aviator, said today in an interview that he would attempt to establish a new aerial rec ord for speed while in the United States, which country he intends to visit soon. "I shall try to accomplish a speed of 122 miles an hour in my aeroplane," -aid Vedrines. "1 shall make a number of flights in the United States and hope to make some new records above American soil."

NEW YORK. Aug. 28.—" Thou shalt pot bear false witness against thy neighbor." This is one of the Ten Com mandments The necessity for announc ing this once well known fact grows out of the obvious’ purpose of a cer tain new political party so strenuously to iterate and reiterate the eighth com mandment, “Thou.shalt not steal,” as to obscure the fact that there are-nine others and even to create the impres sion that the bearing of false witness is not a fault but a virtue when com mitted by Third Term party leaders. But thei’e are those who regard viola tion of the ninth as even more culpa ble than violation of the eighth, as is exemplified by Shakespeare's reference to the theft of a good name. Foundation of New Party. The Third Term party is founded on violations of the ninth commandment, and its even partial success is wholly dependent on the ability of its leaders to gain believers to its "false witness." Its promoters from the time of its con ception have had as their entire stock in trade the misrepresentation of Pres ident Taft and his administration, «and have never hesitated to bear false wit ness against him. Even the iteration of the eighth commandment is made apropos only by violation of the ninth. The only occasion for shouting "Thou shalt not steal" is the false testimony of the Third Termers regarding the set tlement of the contests in the Republi can convention. The Third Term candidate and his sycophantic satellites have never miss ed an opportunity to bear false witness against President Taft. They began with misrepresenting his attitude to ward conservation. They have followed it with misrepresentation of his atti tude toward the tariff, toward railway rate legislation, toward the trusts, to ward the bosses, toward monetary leg islation. toward Canadian reciprocity, and, indeed, toward every public policy with which President Taft has had to deal. Kellogg Quoted in Proof. One of the latest and most striking evidences of its misrepresentation is afforded by the Third Term candidate’s reiterated declarations regarding Pres ident Taft's prosecution of the trusts under the Sherman law. "M e broke up the railroad combina tion in the Northern Securities ease, and there is no parallel between it and the Standard Oil case, and Mr. Wicker sham knows it perfectly well,” and again, "The policy which received its highest expression in the final action, taken with Mr. Wickersham’s approval, in the tobacco and Standard Oil cases is one of make-believe strangling. It is preposterous from every point of view," Mr. Roosevelt has said\ and yet CUBAN ASSAILANT OF AMERICAN OFFICIAL IS FREED WITHOUT BAIL HAVANA. Aug. 28.—Notwithstanding the fact that the Cuban law holds an assault upon a foreign diplomat to be a felony, Enrique Maza, the Cuban re porter who assaulted Hugh S. Gibson, the charge d'affaires of the American legation, here last night, was today released on his own recognizance. Following the assault, which took place In a hotel, Maza was locked up. Upon being arraigned today before the police judge, he demanded his liberty, and his request was at once granted. It is understood Mr. Gibson will lodge formal protest against the case being heard before a police judge. The Cuban reporter’s anger had been aroused be cause he had been proscribed from the United States legation quarters for falsely quoting Mr. Gibson on a matter relating to the intercourse between the United States and Cuban governments. I RICH. BUT HER DAUGHTER GOES TO COOKING SCHOOL NEW YORK. Aug. 28.—Mrs. Elmer Black, owner of a great fortune, has I sailed for Europe with her daughter to place the latter in an English cooking | school. WOMAN JUDGE GIVES FEMALEJURIES BOOST CHICAGO, Aug. 28.—Mary Bartolme, the first woman to sit on the bench in I this state, says It women were permit ted to serve on juries they would "change many things for the better.” "WHITE WINGS" ON STRIKE. MACON, GA., Aug. 28.—Because their I foreman is alleged to have cursed them, the "white wings" of Macon, comprising | the city street (leaning department, have again struck. Recently they went on a strike because citizens treated them discourteously The men are all Assyrians and Bulgarians Mr. W. S. Gunsalus, a farmer living near Fleming.

THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 28. 1912. when he said that he knew that'Frank B. Kellogg, his chief supporter on the Republican national committee, the most competent lawyer in the Bull Moose party today and the man whom he selected* to conduct the prosecution of the Northern Securities Company, had written, in The Review of Reviews of June. 1912, of the Standard Oil de cision, that it "accomplished everything that it is possible to accomplish under the Sherman act.” and that "the decree went further than any decision haseever gone it® any court under the Sherman act.” T. R. Avoids After-Story. Again. Mr. Roosevelt has repeatedly pointed to the fact that after final de cision in the Standard Oil case the price of its securities advanced—that is. the securities of the various companies which had been in the trust—and on this fact has based his assertion that the trust policy of the Taft adnlinistra tion "benefits the big crooked business concerns." But all the time Mr. Roose velt has sedulously avoided any refer ence to the fact that following his breaking up of the Northern Securities combination the Union Pacific sold the Northern Pacific stocks it had * been compelled to take back at a profit of $63,000,000, while the shares of the Great Northern, which had also been in the trust, also advanced rapidly In value. When It comes to stealing the good name of a former friend and a po litical opponent. the commandment, "Thou shlat not steal,” evidently has no force with the third term candidate. Good and Bad Trusts. Senator LaFollette, who is not a par tisan supporter of President Taft, told the senate, on August 16, that "on the day that Theodore Roosevelt was made president of the United States there were 149 trusts and combinations in the United States. When he turned the government over to William H. Taft there were 10.020 great trusts and com binations.” And he might truthfully have added that during the administra tion of President Taft not one great trust has been formed. When asked which of the 10,000 trusts were "good trusts,” Mr. LaFollette replied: “I have no way to differentiate, be cause none of the trusts are my friends. If any of them were supporting my propaganda. I suppose I would be hu man enough to call them 'good trusts.' I have no George W. Perkins and no Munsey supporting me." "Why were so many trusts organized during the Roosevelt administration? Read the answer In the immunity from prosecution which President Roosevelt granted to the "good trusts." owned in a large part and operated in large part by his friend, George W. Perkins. The third term candidate is basing his whole hope for success on his abili ty to deceive the American people re garding the facts. Can he get away with it? OIL STEAMER BURNS AND SINKS; CREW OF 42 SWIM TO SHORE SANTA BARBARA, CAL., Aug. 28. Divers are working off Alcatraz wharf to locate the hull of the steamer Rose crans, which sank late yesterday fol lowing a fire which wrecked the vessel to the water line.

Aug. 28.—Major Charles E. McGregor, of Warren coun ty. who was nominated in the primary last Wednesday for state senator from the Nineteenth district, comprised of Greene. Taliaferro and Warren coun ties. is somewhat exorcised over a ru mor that an effort will be made at the district convention, to be held at Craw fordville on September 4, to refuse to ratify his nomination because he op posed Thomas W. Hardwick, of Wash ington county, for Congress from the Tenth district. While the move is not gaining any amount of favor in this county, it is possible that a fight will be made in the convention In such a case, each county has two votes, and Greene and Taliaferro could control tlfe nomina tion. The delegates from Greene county to the senatorial convention have not been named by the county executive com mittee. Editor James C. Williams, of Greensboro, is the district executive committeeman from Greene. ARTISTS’ PAINTINGS RUINED BY HEAT AS BIG STABLE BURNS NEW YORK, Aug. 28.—A spectacu lar fire, which did SIOO,OOO damage and routed the guests of the exclusive Gainsborough apartment house and surrounding dwellings, occurred early today when the four-story brick build ing occupied as a stable at 225 and 227 West Fifty-eighth street was destroyed. So intense was the heat that win dows in the Gainsborough were broken and valuable paintings owned by artists living in the apartments were destroyed. HE MISSES BATTED BALL AND GETS A BROKEN JAW PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 28—Struck by a batted ball, John Nolan, 21 years old. received a fracture of the jaw yes terday. Nolan was playing first base. At an exciting moment a ball was batted in the direction of Nolan. It moved with great rapidity, and before the baseman could place his hands In position to catch the sphere, it passed through his glove and struck him on the side of the head. He dropped unconscious. He was taken to St. Agnes hospital, where he was revived and the broken bone set in a dental splint. BARTLETT-WISE RESULT TO BE DECLARED FRIDAY MACON, GA.. Aug. 28.—The Sixth district congressional convention will be held at Barnesville Friday for the purpose of declaring the nominee of the recent primary, who, on the face of the returns, is Representative C. b. Bartlett, by a plurality of about 200. Judge Bartlett has appointed his dele gates from each of the twelve counties, and thus the convention will be unani mous for him. In view of this fact. It is not expected that Candidate J. Wal ter Wise will press his claim for a re count in certain counties. Judge Bartlett has appointed a total of 200 delegates to represent him at the convention, the plurality rule entitling him to name the delegates even from the counties carried by his opponent. ROBARTS LIVES, BUT WIFE, SHOT BY HIM, SUCCUMBS TO INJURY COLUMBUS, GA„ Aug. 28.—Today A M.

Aug. 28.—The "turkey i trot” was demonstrated in court for the i benefit of a police magistrate who ■ wished to judge for himself if a pro f test against the dance which resulted ■ in an assault upon the manager of a Bronx social affair was justified.
