DE LEON SAFE IN HOSPITAL AT SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA Cables to Wife That He Has Brain Fever, But Will Re turn Home Soon. WANDERED OVER WORLD, HIS HEAD IN A DAZE Starts for San Francisco, and Family Prepares to Welcome Contractor in Mystery. Moise Del eon has been found. The v.-.>-lib'- Atlanta contractor, missing since early August, has been located in Sydney, Australia. A ca b'egram to his wife, received today at th? DeLeon home in Piedmont avenue, brought her the tidings that he was safe and indicated that it would be but a question of a few weeks before he was again at home among his family and friends in Atlanta. The cablegram read: “Hospital, brain fever; will wire condition and money from 'Frisco. (Signed) "JIM.” Wandered W orld, Brain in a Daze. “Jim,” Mrs. DeLeqn explained, is the pet name used by her for her husband in the family circle. The message, v\hich to a large ex tent cleared up the mystery which has puzzled not only Atlanta, but search ers the world over, was received short ly before 9 o’clock today. Its impor tance was at once realized by the cable company. No time was wasted in sending a mess nger to the DeLeon home. A clerk rushed to the telephone and got Mrs. DeLeon on the wire. The mes sage was read. Apparently she did not grasp its full Import at first. It had to be repeated twice before, with a cry of joy, she rushed from the phone to spread the news about the house. DeLeon's friends were soon advised of the news, and it was spread over Atlanta In record time. Expected Home In Six Weeks. Though definite advices are awaited, it is believed that the contractor was stricken with brain saver in Chicago, where he had gone early in August to start on a fishing trip of recuperation in the Michigan woods. With hi.s mind disordered by the fe ver, he is thought to have wandered West until he reached the Pacific, and there shipped to the Antipodes. On the other side of the earth his condition was at last realized, and he was sent to a hospital. Mrs. DeLeon believes that his re turn to Atlanta may be expected within six weeks. The sending of the cable gram indicates to her that her husband will soon be able to leave the Sydney hospital, and the mention of San Fran cisco is taken to mean that he will take an early steamer. Albert DeLeon, a brother, lives In Berkeley, Cal., near San Francisco, and will meet him there and arrange for his home coming. Creditors to Meet With Referee. Ronald Ransom, co-receiver for the DeLeon affairs, declared today the lo cating of the missing contractor would clear up many things in connection with his affairs which have been a mystery to the receivers. A meeting of DeLeon's creditors has been called for next week by Pressly Adams, referee in the case, and at that time it is probable that H. L. Fraser will be appointed trustee for the cred itors. According to Mr. Ransom, the receiv ers and creditors had nothing to do with the discovery of DeLeon. “If he returns," he said, "it will be on his own volition.” Moise DeLeon's disappearance was first known in Atlanta August 24. At that time no word had been received Continued on Page Two. ATLANTA, GA.. SATURD AY, OCTOBER 19, 1912. Dixie Boy Gives Quart Os Blood to Save Life Os His Invalid Mother Son of Wealthy Memphis Cotton Broker Hurries Home From Chicago for Operation. MEMPHIS, TENN., Oct. 19.—Clif ford Wright, of Chicago, traveled 500 miles to Memphis to save the life of his mother, Mrs. S. L. Wright, wife of a wealthy Memphis cotton broker. Young Wright and the mother were placed on an opr rating table, where a quart of the son’s blood was transfused into the mother. Previous attempts to aid Mis. Wright by transfusion failed. Both stood the operation well. In a few days Mrs. Wright is to un-' dergo an operation for kidney trouble, the transfusion having been made to give her strength to stand the opera tion. • Krs> Champ Clark • Defends Husband • 9 • • OKLAHOMA CITY, Oct. 19. • • Mrs. Champ Clark, wife of the • « speaker, jumped to her feet, in the ® • midst of a large audience while H. • " T.

Second Section of Freight Train Ploughs Through Caboose of First at East Point. Conductor L. B. Holley, of the Cen tral railway, was within three miles of completing his run just before dawn today and was changing his overalls to street clothes in the caboose of freight No. 35, coming from Macon to Atlanta. He was just reaching for his coat when the great engine of the second section crashed into the caboose and Holley hardly knew what struck him. He was hurled 50 feet in the debris of the caboose and the locomotive, plunging from the track, tore far into the bank and settled, half-buried, in the wet earth at the bottom. Half a doV.en coal cars behind it were piled high on each other and demolished. Two negroes, a fireman in the en gine and a brakeman in the cab, were hurt and an ambulance carried them to the Atlanta hospital. They will re cover. it is said. The engineer es caped with only a bruise or two. The wreck occurred in the Eust Point yards, just out of Atlanta, and opposite the Campbellfon road, at 4:16 o’clock. An hour later there was a crowd of a thousand persons watching the wreck ing crew clear the tracks. The cause of the wreck has not been ascertained, but officials are trying to find how the second section of No. 35 came into the East Point yards so close on the heels of the first section. It was reported that there were no rear lights on the caboose, but this has not been verified, and the lanterns them selves are buried under tons of debris. The conductor's watch Dad stopped at 4:16 o'clock, a silent witness as to the exact moment of the crash. GEORGIA AND VANDERBILT READY FOR GREAT BATTLE Rain and Slush Will Only Serve to In crease Spectacular Quality of Duel Be tween Capt. Hardage and Bob McWhorter. By FUZZY WOODRUFF. MORE football will be crowded into two hours at Ponce DeLeon this afternoon than Atlanta lovers of the pigskin sport have seen in seasons. When Geor gia and Vanderbilt clash on the lime-streaked field It will be the meeting of the best that the South has been able to produce during the season of 1912. And the bugs will all be there. Real students of footba’l will form a large part of the throng. Men interested in the game from the four quarters of Dixie have journeyed to Atlanta for the fray, for they realize there i is every likelihood that a sen satlonal sort will be uncorked. The tremendous rain of Friday night and Saturday morning made a sloppy field certain ■ and precluded the possibility of fast Georgia’s stu ■ dents, eager anc L -k. X ' Vz - anxious for the Red and Black to grasp the Southern championship this early in the season by defeat ing the almost invincible Vander bilt, have stormed the city. They will form the picturesque back ground for the fray. They realize that the odds are sternly set against their champions, that the machine of Dan McGugin lias never met defeat on Southern field, but they are by those tokens all the more heart-set on victory. Except for the crowd of Georgia undergraduates, the game will lack the brilliance in attendance of the classic Georgia-Tech affray. There is none of the throat-cutting, fa natical rivalrj’ between Georgia and Vanderbilt that exists between the two state institutions. Will Be Real Football. But the football will be there, and the crowd will be a football crowd. The game has a tremendous bearing on the history of the 1912 season in the Southern Intercol legiate Athletic association. Its weight may be felt through the nation, too. This year Vander bilt, a Southern college, meets one of the Big Four of the East. Should Georgia win or be able to hold Vanderbilt and the hopes of McGugin are realized in making a brave showing against Harvard, the South will be permanently on the baseball map. Georgia Is picked as the only team in the Southern domain ca pable of challenging Vanderbilt's title. Though the Old Gold anil Black of the Tennessee university waves a strong odds-on favorite over the Red and Black of the Athens institution, there are those experts who look to see Georgia give a surprising account of her self in today's foray. In weight, the teams are evenly matched. More brawn will be on exhibition in Ponce DeLeon than has been seen since the Ringling elephants paraded Peachtree. In condition, Georgia undoubtedly has the advantage. Coach Cunningham has realized the supreme importance to him of the Vanderbilt game. His men have been put on edge for it. Vandy Takes No Chances. On the other hand, Vanderbilt is far from top form. The season is young and McGugln's hard games with the exception of the Georgia combat —are all set for November. | ZACH CURLIN KICKING ! 9- <>..* t yWfc V *' 1 %. -»Sk2' " i * i i ISY -'ll i ’ : i I\ V X - ’SI 11 wm T . oßv This man is Wsfiffg ?/ x< A shown i n the f N i / ( 1 act of getting away a drop F kick.

Famous R 0 1? Morrison The wily Vanderbilt coach figures that he has too much at stake at that period of the season to bring his team to a fine edge in October's third week. Vanderbilt's battle front will not be composed, though, of asthmatic, crippled and spav ined athletes, but the team will be far from the team that will tackle Harvard. Previous scores count for noth ing. Neither team has met an or- EXTRA 2 CENTS EVERYWHERE ganization worthy of its steel as yet. In style of play, too, there should be a similarity. It is a clash of pupil and master, for Coach Cun ningham of Georgia is a product of McGugin's school. Then, too, the brilliancy of the two back fields makes it practical ly certain that the game will abound in sweeping end runs. Scintillating play is expected In
