quarterly meeting of the board here
I yesterday. Announcement was made
by Mr. Calvin that he would not seek
re-election at th? expiration of his
present term, July 1, 1913
In addition to the hearing of these

cial records of the station will be made
by expert accountants under the direc
tion of a committee composed of J. H.

Director Calvin's Statement.
I Mr Calvin today said of the charges:
"On September 3(1 four members of
the station staff. Messrs. Lykes.
Stuckey. Temple and Kimbrough, wrote
me a letter that unless I at once sent
my* resignation to the board of di-
I rectors, to take effect January 1, 1913,
they would prefer charges against me.
To this I replied that, being sconscious
of duty faithfully performed. I did not
fear an investigation and invited them
to proceed to carry out their threatened
action. 1 heard nothing further of the
matter until two days before the board
meeting, when I learned the nature o'
the charges that would be brought
against me.
"In the board meeting yesterday. I
invited a full investigation into my
administration of the station. Incident
ally I mentioned that l ist February or
Mareli I wrote Chancellor Barrow that
I would not offer for re-election when
iny present term expires. My deter
mination to retire next summer, there
fore, can not be construed as a result
of the action of the staff members yes
terday.”

ATLANTA AVE. GETS
CITY WATER MAIN
DESPITE PROTEST
When tlie property owners on At
lanta avenue, a street on which there
ate but few houses, petitioned tlte wa
ter board yesterday afternoon for a
main. Mayor Winn admonished the
board that the city should not spend
its money in laying pipe on vacant
streets when many thickly settled
streets still were without water con
nections.
It was called to the attention of the
board that Atlanta avenue has sewers,
curbing and sidewalks. These were
built on the assessment plan. The bond
ordinance also provides that water
mains shall be laid in the street, so
the board ordered the main laid.
On the petition of tl\e officers at
Fort McPherson, the board promised
to try to provide city water for the
fort.

A Furniture Sale
In Which You May Buy Odd Pieces of Hall, Bedroom
and Dining Room Furniture at Tremendous Reductions
’ V '■* « '
The list below tells but part of the good fortune that may be yours
tomorrow. All the prices are not mentioned—but you may judge that
this movement means hundreds of dollars saved to the housekeepers of
Atlanta. It is a putting-in-order of stocks—odd pieces, pieces that for
one reason or another we can not or will not reorder, have had their
prices rather recklessly reduced.
Because it is a time when most people have to buy an odd piece or
so, has not deterred us. It has rather spurred us on so as to making com
ing here the only sensible and economic thing to do.
And, what kind of furniture is it? It is the only kind that this store
will sell— good furniture— the kind that is worth every penny of its
former price.
W hat an opportunity this is now!
W e have made no attempt at describing the many pieces—-we could
not. But here are the exact former prices and the prices now:

BOTH CONFIDENT
IN MAYOR BATTLE
Chambers Promises to Raise
Veil on Woodward’s Cam
paigners Tonight.
Confining their campaigns almost
solely to vigorous attacks on each other
through newspaper advertisements,
botlt candidates for the mayoralty nom
ination, James G. Woodward and Aldine
t'bambers. sat in their campaign head
quarters today and claimed that they
would be victorious at the polls next
Tuesday.
James G. Woodward said that the
contest was a landslide. Many callers
were in evidence around his head
quarters, and he declared that he had
seen more men who said that they
voted for Chambers in the first pri
mary but would vote for him now than
he had seen Chambers supporters. Mr.
Woodward said this election was too
serious a matter for him to enter any
mudslinging contest.
"The issue is honest, popular gov
ernment against incompetent, ring poli
ties," he said.
Aldine Chambers said this morning
that he would raise the veil that ob
scures Woodward’s campaigners at a
mass meeting at 201 Peters street to
night. in the First ward. He said that
he was going to show where Mr. Wood
ward’s campaign funds were coming
from.
“Atlanta's moral reputation is at
stake.” he asserted.

CONFESSED TAKER OF
BRIBES TO “TELL ALL;”
ACCUSED TREMBLING
COLUMBUS, OHIO, Oct. 10—Con
sternation reigned today in the ranks of
the legislators and lobbyists under In
dictment in connection with the legis
lature bribery eases. This came, with
the announcement by the state’s attor
neys that a special session of the grand
Jury will be called next week to hear
the confession of Dr. George B. Nye.
Pike county representative, who has
Pleaded guilty to one of the six in
dictments charging him with solicit
ing bribes while a member of the leg
islature.
Nye, who has been promised im
munity if he tells all he knows on the
stand, is charged with having placed
information in the hands of the state’s
attorneys putting them in a position to
make sure work of the prosecution of
many of the legislators against whom
charges are pending. He brings many
more persons, both officials and others,
into the legislative bribery dragnet
thrown out two years ago.
The new turn in the bribery probe is
in the direction of men and big inter
ests high up, who created the condi
tions in the legislature to which the
members fell victims. It is said these
men will be hauled before the crim
inal courts as well as the legislators
whom they used as their tools. There
is to be a general accusation of the
methods of big business to secure and
prevent legislation at pleasure.
A number of indictments are also be
ing contemplated charging perjury
against a numbefr of witnesses who tes
tified in the graft cases.
