lame line as Chairman Mason.
None of them was aware of the
chief’s plans, ami all received the sur
prise of their lives when they ’.earned
that he had suddenly taken the vica
situation in his own official hands and
had done what no other chief of police
had ever dared to do.
In assuming full responsibility for the
wiping out of the resorts, Chief Beavefs
s*ys that he had been carefully study
ing over the matter for some time and
Lad become convinced to the satisfac
tion of his own mind and conscience
: tat it wa;- his plain duty to follow the
1 '.w and close ail such places In the
i tty
Asked when he definitely decided on
his plan of action, the chief replied:
Intended to Quit
If He Didn’t Succeed.
"The night previous— Monday night.
I hail weighed all phases of the situa
tion with the utmost care, and came
to the conclusion there was nothing
c »e for me to do but enforce the law.
When I left home yesterday morning
my mind was fully made up as to all of
tiie details and I told my wife what I
was going to do.”
The chief paused a moment, and then
•aid:
‘‘Convinced that It was my duty to
• lose these places, I determined to do
this duty or quit my job."
The chief declared he intends to vig.
orously enforce the law as to all forms
of vice in Atlanta. Not only does he
intend to exterminate the tenderloin
district itself, but he has formally
opened war on the cheap hotels of the
city that may be conducted in the
manner of Illegal houses Much com
plaint has been received by the chief
concerning these places, and he asserts
that they must maintain "a clean bill of
health." In the event evidence Is ob
tained against any of these places, he
said, they will be closed and the pro
prietors prosecuted.
Not to Tolerate
Vice in Hotels.
'•We will not tolerate vice in the
hotels of the city.” said the chief. "We
will keep a watchful eye on these places
ami those we find to be operated as an
Illegal house will be given the same
treatment ns a regular house in the
tenderloin."
Chief Beavers said some of the
cheaper hotels are a peril to young
girls, and that much complaint has been
made to him in this respect.
"I intend to do all 1 can to save the
young girls of the city. We must throw
a protecting arm around them and
ehield them from the lure of vice, he
•aid.
That Chief Beavers will receive the
backing of police court in his crusade
there is no question, .lust before starl
ing out yesterday with Captain Poole
and Policemen McWilliams and West
to close the tenderloin, the chief held
a conference with Recorder Broyles in
the latter's office in the police station,
explaining to him what lie was doing.
The chief emerged from the conference
satisfied as to the attitude of the court.
Mayor Winn made this comment on
Police Chief Beavers' order today
"There are state and city laws
against such houses. Inasmuch as
Chief Beavers has undertaken to en
force this law it is the duty of the
police commission to back him up.
"It is my duty as a sworn official to
support him in his efforts to enforce
the law."

, Dramatic Suicide
Marks Ciean-Up
"This is the end. They have ordered |

where to go. I might as well die j
Please don't tell my .sister anything I
’ i about it."
Thus wrote Nellie Busbee, a woman i
' I of the restricted district, who early this |
! morning, after brooding the night over)
, the sudden co .sing order of the police.
went to htr room and plunged the
three-inch blade of an ordinary jack
knife Into her heart. She died almost
I instantly, without outcry.
A negro maid, throwing back the
I shutters of the drab little dwelling at 11
• o'clock this morning, discovered the
body of the woman a crumpled heap
. In pink kimono—lying sprawled across
i a lounge In a downstairs room. She
had been dead several hours
I Blames Closing Order.
A rambling note, which assigned the
i police closing order as the motive for
' the deed and the picture of a midrile
' aged man were found clasped in one
hand. The knife with which she ended
1 her life was still in the single wound
that'accomplished her death. She had
been dead for hours when the body was
discovered.
Vivian Stewart, the only other in
mate of the place declares that while
the Busbee girl had appeared despond
, ent over the closing order, she gave no
intimation of her intention to end her
; life.
j “She told me last night that all her
I troubles came at once,” said the Stuart
girl. “She was mad about a man, and I
, think that worried her, too; but she
told tne she didn't know what to do,
, now that the houses had been closed."
, The Stuart girl said that she went to
bed at. 3 o'clock this morning but Nel
lie Busbee had retired an hour or so
, earlier. The Stuart girl said that she
. heard no outcry during the early hours
, of the morning, although she was about
the house at 5 o’clock.
. Coroner Paul Donehoo will hold an
inquest at Poole's undertaking estab

Chief Expresses Sorrow.
Chief Beavers, when Informed today of
, the suicide of the Busby woman, ex
pressed sympathy for her
I am sorr.v to hear of this woman's
tragic death." said the chief "I sympa
thise with the lot of these fallen women.
We are simply striking at an Iniquitous

” Ihe act of Chief Beavers was as
great a surprise to Marlon M. .Jackson,
head of the Men and Religion Forward
Movement, as to the man on the street.
At 10 o'clock yesterday morning. Mr.
Jackson told a Georgian reporter there
was no indication of early positive re
sults from llie campaign waged by the
movement. At 1 o’clock he was in
formed by Tiie Georgian that Chief
Beavers was on his way to the re
stricted district to close the houses.
The news came to Mr. Jackson as a
complete surprise. But he was quick
to act upon the new turn affairs had
taken, and at once began steps to care
for the women driven out of the re
sort s.
But Mr. Jackson is not satisfied to ■
let matters stop with this one step. ]
He considers the closing of the houses
i but one skirmish in the war against
evil. i
It is but a scratch on tile surface." •
i he declared "We must cut deeper—to 1
tiie very center of this cancer. The 1

city clean. It will eradicate tiie so- 1

Exodus of Women
To Other Cities On.
Tne men behind the movement real
ize that even the unfortunate outcasts
of the underworld have a right to live,
that they can not abandon the life they
lead without some livelihood to take
its place. The women can not simply'
be ordered out on the streets and com
manded to be good and virtuous and
happy They must be helped to keep
the path.
The closing of the resorts is being
followed by an exodus of the women.
Macon. Columbus. Jacksonville, Bir
mingham will be the objective points
of many of these hunted creatures, vic
tims of the system They a e used to
"moving on.” from bad to worse But
there may' be some who are ready to
try once mote if they can feel that
there is an honest desire upon the part
of "good people” to extend them sym
pathy and aid. It is to these that the
organization will offer a helping hand.
Religious men and women of Atlanta
will be urged to consider this phase of
the problem and join in offering oppor
tunity to these outcasts to earn hon
est livings and lead decent lives. The
Associated Charities will have this 1
work in charge, and already it is re- I
ceiving appeals from the women, j
Whether situations where the unfor- i
tunates may' earn a living will be of- ,
sered; whether employers will keep
these women in their places in the face
of criticism, is yet to be determined.

Literary and Artistic Tempera
ments Refuse to Biend—Still
Love Each Other.
BALTIMORE. Sept. 25.--John Fox,
Jr’s., literary temperament and Fritzl
Scheft’s artistic disposition do not blend
in a harmonious duet, and their friends
were not surprised at rumors that the
novelist and the singer he married a
few years ago have agreed to separate.
Mr. Fox has “moods.” When he is
feeling right he is a jolly good fellow.
When one of his moods comes on he is
something else. Miss Scheff was asked
once, when her engagement to Fox was
first announced, what she would do
when John was attacked by one of
those same moods.
"Why, I’ll smile once," she replied.
"Maybe I’ll smile twice. If that doesn't
straighten him out. why—” And she
shrugged the shoulders which have
helped make her famous.
Rumors for weeks have been circu
lating that the fascinating Miss Scheff
and her novelist husband had agreed
to separate. There was io be no fuss
no florid discussions of sentimental
differences which had shattered their
love. Both agreed, it is said, upon a
quiet dissolving of their matrimonial
pat tne’ ship.
This was two months ago at the
Plaza hotel in New York. Mr. Fox
went to his home at Big Stone Gap,
Ya., while his young wife—more Ilian
fifteen years his junior—took up re
hearsals for the season she has just be
gun in a new opera. "The Love Wager,"
composed b.v t'ha:i?s J- Hambltzer,
whom Miss Scheff discovered p'aying in
a hotel orchestra in New York.
She Regrets the Publicity.
At her hotel here Miss Scheff ex
pressed regret that any rumors of mat
rimonial discord had reached the pub
lic. While having nothing to say about
the separation o the possibility of an
action being instituted b.v her, the
sprightly prima donna denied with
'some asperity repoits that Mr. Fox in-
I tends suing for divorce.
"Why should I discuss my affairs
| with the public?” she asked. "It is the
I usual attempt of some irresponsible
person to discredit a ’ eputable woman
of tne stage. My husband w ill not sue j
tne for divorce and my intimate friends
know this to be true."

I-
Department Head,After
a Week of Agony, De
cides Action Is His
Duty and Proceeds
With Sensational
Move, While Official
Atlanta Stands Silent.
A man in blue uniform stumbled f:om
the private office of Carlos Mason,
chairman of the police commission. A
diamond-studded badge upon his breast
marked him as the chief of the Atlanta
police department. Atlantans have
known him for years as an officer of
indomitable physical courage. Yet, ha
was crying like a child; tears streamed
down his cheeks, his voiec was broken
as he cried out:
"I’ve got to do it. I'm going to do it.
I can't help it, even if it costs me my
place. It's the law ; it's the right.”
The man was James L. Beavers, chief.
He had just reported to his superior,
head of the commission, that the orders
had gone out for the closing of the ten
derloin. He did not ask permission, did
not desire advice. He had obeyed man
dates higher than the authority of a
police commission—the law and his own
conscience. Beavers had _ proved his
moral courage as great as his physical
bravery. He was ready to take lhe
consequences.
Chief Through a
Week of Agony.
Chief Beavers had been through a
week of agony. He had lain awake
with his conscience. He had seen the
light. He had done his duty. He knew
he would be lauded bj’ many, censured
by many more. He could not know
whether his act was to be worldly wise.
But he knew it was his duty to himself
and to his oath of office.
For James L. Beavers is not only a
policeman, but a man: not only an of
ficial. but a’ good citizen, a churchgoer,
a man who loves friends and family
and right living. His record in the po
lice department has been singularly
free from the taint of partisan politics,
| his persona) conduct always beyond
reproach.
The system had been there when
Beavers joined the force. It had ex
isted through his apprenticeship, when
he was a captain. It was there when
he became chief of his department. It
was recognized, tolerated, even com
mended as a lesser evil. The city had
wrestled with it under the spur of pop
ular movements; grave bodies of wise
men had debated the problem which Is
as old as Babylon and had not agreed.
James Beavers' superiors, the men who
made him chief and who might unmake
him. were content with conditions as
they existed. They called him chief,
but it had been an unwritten-law of the
department that no such step as this
might be undertaken without especial
authority. No chief in Atlanta's his
tory had taken such a burden upon his
shoulders.
System Tolerated
For Many Years.
There was the system, and there was
the law For many months James
Beavers had tried to reconcile the two.
In the midst of his debate with his con
science there began the campaign of
the Men and Religion Forward Move
ment, the war upon "the houses in our
midst.” The committee behind this
movement hammered the fearful truths
of licensed vice into the minds of At
lantans day after day. And no man
read and listened with more deep
thought than Beavers, chief of police.
For four nights James Beavers had
lain sleepless in his little home in Law
ton street. For four days he had paced
the floor of his office in the station.
Carlos Mason, head of the commission,
was absent from the city, but it is
doubtful whether the chief would have
consulted him in any case Beavers
wanted to know what was right; not
merely what might be expedient. He
considered the question in all its
phases: remembered the half-pledges

Chaingang for
Violators—Broyles
"Any person who defies the orders
i of Chief Beavers in this fight will be
given the limit of the law. No fine will
be Imposed—it will be 30 days in the
stockade straight, and the offender will
also be bound over to the stale courts
and headed for the chaingang. I in
tend to back Chief Beavers to the full
limit of my powers. We mean business
In this fight. Vice must go—that's all
there is to it."
This strong statement, made today to
The Georgian by Recorder Nash R.
Broyles, leaves no doubt as to the
stand of that official in the war of the
chief to obliterate vice from Atlanta. It
means that Chief Beavers has the sym
pathy and unmistakable backing of the
recorder, and that offenders will be
dealt with severely.
“Chief Beavers has displayed grit and
courage that will bring to him the ad
miration of all of Atlanta,” says Judge
Broyles. "He has done a brave and
manly thing, and the right thing. He
is enforcing the law. and will receive
the full and complete co-operation of
police court. Any person brought be
fore me for failing to obey the chief’s
orders need expect no leniency.”
Judge Broyles holds that illegal
houses violate both the city and state
laws. The offenders can be given a
term in tiie stockade, and also held for
further trial in the state courts.
Chief Beavers said today that in
every case brought into court, where
the evidence proved a violation of law,
he would ask that the limit of the law
be imposed.
"We intend to stop these violations of
law by illegal houses, even if we have
to put a whole lot of people in the
chaingang," he said.
Housewives Offer
Women Employment
Realizing that merely ordering lhe wom
en out of the district does not end the
evil, John J. Eagan, chairman of the Men
and Religion Forward Movement, and
Marion M. Jackson, head of the executive
committee, today began a canvass of At
lanta to see where homes and work could
be found for the unfortunate women who |
will express a desire to lead a new life.
A personal visit to the district will be '
made by the two campaign workers, and I
the women interviewed. Those who ex- i
press a willingness to reform and who will I
accept aid. will be asked what kind of i
work they prefer.
"The women who desire to reform will ,
be dealt with as individuals." said Mr. ;
Eagan. "A number of Atlanta house- I
keepers have pledged themselves to re- '
ceive these girls into their homes as serv- I
ants if the girls will accept. We had a
sufficient number of such homes pledged
before our campaign was publicly begun.
"We shall not wait for the women to
come to us," he continued. “We shall go
to them."

quences of the step he contemplated;
heard In advance the censure which
would come to him from the powers
that rule in politics. But on the other
side he saw two answers inexorable:
The Law and the Right.
Then Beavers acted. He told his sec
retary to write the orders notifying the
women of the restricted district that
they must abandon their quarters and
give up their careers of vice. He sum
moned his officers and told them to
prepare for a round of the district.
Then he went to the chairman of the
police commission and announced his
act. The commissioners had announce I
that Beavers would be chief in fact as
well as tn title, and Beavers had ac- I
cepted the challenge.
