ENGS If®!'
Union Leaders Charge Road’s
Officials With Attempt to
Delay Board’s Decision.
llt . orgia strike arbitration board
jc xpected to conclude its sessions by
'< ~;.lav Today is the fourth since
board first met and the case has
good headway. Throughout the
< ions the union leaders have insisted
on going ahead and have charged the
officials with attempting to be
on,i the issues with words and hypo
thetical questions.
Tin boa rd has been unanimous, in
deciding on objections, and has set
forth the case substantially as follows:
Conductor Paschal Is to answer for
art alleged violation of the bulletin of
November 14, 1911, and for no other
bulletin, oral orders of Superintendent
Brand are considered to take prece
dence ove bulletins preceding them;
no question on the character of Con
diietor Paschal will be considered until
the unions definitely charge discrimi
nation: no “time killing” allowed; no
officials or men of other railroads al
lowed to testify; no more questions to
engineers by the road on the distance
between Conyers and Lithonia.
Mo e Witnesses On Call.
There are several more witnesses
who will he put up and Trainman Mor
gan ’s one of them. ’
The afternoon session was enlivened
v-Bterday by the declaration of James
Murdock, vice president of the Brother
hood of Railway Trainmen. that rail
road officials all over the country
winked at violations of the speed laws
by their employee-. "All good railroad
men sanction the violation.” asserted
Mr. Murdock, “and they will keep on
violating the speed laws in their own
,'lsrretion and judgment.”
Wickersham On His Feet.
Tins brought a vigoious denial from
Charles A. Wickersham, president of
the Atlanta and West Point railroad
and th. Western Railway of Alabama.
1 desr that my remarks shall not go
no the record,” said Mr. Wickersham,
sing from the bench. “I am very sof
ty that Mr. Murdock has seen fit to
make sin h remarks about railroad of
ficials and feel that what he says will
have a bad effect on the railroad men
)»r..sent. As a railroad official I can not
let the remarks pass unchallenged.”
M Murdock declared that he regret
ted It was necessary to say what he
had said, and he later made a more
general statement on the violation of
laws, which went into the record. He
did not retract.
The remarks were brought out dur
ing Mr. B and’s examination of A. L.

the possible violation of speed laws by
Conductor Paschal.

BATTLE BffilTS
PARIS. Nov. 13.—As a seqiu I to the
Bannot siege, M. Lepin-. prefect of po
lice, figuratively beating a penitential
breast, gave orders that the municipal
laboratory should design weapons of
offenSe and defense?—bombs for bad
bandits and bucklers so brave police—
that justice should not be deprived of
her prey. The bombs were to be rather
disconcerting than deadly Some weeks
ago the results of the labors of the
municipal chemists —a light but resist
ent buckler and a sort of handgrenade
filled with an asphyxiating gas—we: e
tested in a piece of waste ground ad
joining the ancient Hospital De La
Pitie.
The results were at the time ac
claimed as highly encouraging, but M.
Lepine was not yet satisfied. The
portable buckler did not completely
protect’thc guardian of th. law. if his
head were covered his feet—the heels
of Achilles, one might call them—were
left unprotected, a broad mark for
Brownings, and vice versa. Then, the
bombs discharged by hand, had natur
ally a very restricted range. Their pen
etrating power also was small. The
laboratory set to work again, and its
experiments have resulted in a steel
buckler on wheels, which will form a
complete protection for the besieger,
and a bot h which will penetrate doors
and windows, and even a brick wall of
average thickness. This bomb will be
discharged from a sort of miniature
cannon, which is so light as to be man
ageable by a singl ■ man. It has an ef
fective range of 350 yards. Bursting,
the bomb spreads sneezing, coughing,
choking, like the effects of snuff, and
other plagues and desolations around.
These perfected engines havA, been
tested once more in the waste ground
nar the Pite, and the results have been
so satisfacioiy that several sets of
bombs and bucklers are already at the
disposal of the police.

THE ATLANTA OEORGIAX AND NEWS.WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1912.
Atlanta Association Has So
cialists Who Are Aiding the
Work, for Winter Help.
If the officers of the Associated Char
ities and the Atlanta >d Men. who are
trying to aid them, accomplish their
desires, their Thanksgiving day will be
a real one, with the satisfaction that
comes from helping the other fellow.
For the charities are trying to raise
$3,000 by Thanksgiving day toward the
support of the charities, and that
amount of money would go a long way
in relieving the troubles of the poor.
College-bred girls who have left
Greek and mathematics to learn how
the other half lives and help bring the
upper and lower halves closer together
are the workers of the Atlanta chari
ties. and they are putting their whole
souls into their work. Charity workers
have learned that a woman can find her
way into the confidence of another
woman far more readily than a man,
and it is among women and children
that a large share of the work must be
done. So the association has built up
a working staff of young women who
are rapidly becoming expert sociolo
gists.
Miss Edith Thomson is a graduate of
Agnes Scott and a post-graduate of
Columbia. Miss Jeannette Way is a
Vassar girl. Miss Lottie Ramspeck
studied at Agnes Scott. Miss Minnie
VanEpps is a graduate of the Atlanta
High school. Mrs. Lola Becker came
from a Western college, and Joseph C.
Logan, secretary and principal worker
of the organization, holds degrees from
Roanoke and Columbia.
Just now the charities are at their
busiest, for the cold weather is ap
proaching. and with it the annual in
crease in suffering among-the poor.
More than a hundred Ad Men will
meet for a supper next Monday night,
when final arrangements will he made
for the campaign. This meeting was
decided upon at a luncheon yesterday
afternoon at which 50 Ad Men pledged
active work. The headquarters of the
Thanksgiving campaign at 122 Peach
tree street are already busy with so
licitors and committee members.

RIB IN 0.5.
SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS, Nov. 13.
Andrez Garza Galan, a leader of the
Mexican revolutionary junta here, to
day confirmed the report that General
Felix Diaz, nephew >f the former presi
dent. has escaped fiom the military
prison at Vera Cruz, where he was held
pending his execution at the order of a
courtmartial.
According to Galan. Diaz has made
his way across the American border.
Just where the geneial is, Galan would
not say. but it was intimated by other
members of the junta here that Diaz is
now hiding in New Orleans.
The information concerning the es
cape was contained in a letter sent
through secret channels. Diaz escaped
from the prison last Friday. He made
his way northward in a launch and
finally, through the aid of friends,
reached. Brownsville, Texas.
Health is the foundation of all good
looks. The wise woman realizes this
and takes precautions to preserve her
health and strength through the pe
riod of child bearing. She remains a
pretty mother by avoiding as far as
possible the suffering and dangers of
such occasions. This every woman
may do through the use of Mother’s
Friend, a remedy that has been so long
in use, and accomplished so much
good, that it is in no sense an experi
ment, but a preparation which always
produces the best results. It is for
external application and so penetrating
in its nature as to thoroughly lubricate
every muscle, nerve and tendon in
volved during the period before baby
comes. It aids nature by expanding
the skin and tissues, relieves tender
ness and soreness, and perfectly pre
pares the system for natural and safe
motherhood. Mother's Friend has been
used and endorsed by thousands of
mothers, and its use will prove a com
fort and benefit
to any woman in LJ
need of such a m
remedy. Mother's fllJ
Friend is sold at C7/
drug stores. Write for free book sos
expectant mothers, which contains
much valuable information.

Spain’s Hated General May
Succeed Canalejas—He and
King Marked for Death.
MADRID. Nov. 13. —Investigation of
the assassination of Premier Canalejas
yesterday- has revealed that King Al
fonso and General Weyler, the captain
general of Catalonia, have both been
marked for death by the Spanish an
archists. The king has been warned to
take the strictest precautions and not
to appear in public unless accompanied
by a body guard which will insure ab
solute safety. When Alfonso received
this warning he is said to have ex
claimed :
"My first duty is to my country and
my own protection Is of less impor
tance."
Expressions of grave concern are
heard on every hand because of the an
nounced intention of the king to ap
point General Weyler premier to suc
ceed Senor Canalejas
General Weyler’s rigid ideas of dis
cipline. which at times amounted to
positive cruelty, and which were exer
cised to the last degree during the dis
orders in Barcelona, caused him to be
come one of the most hated men In
public life in Spain. At the same time
he is greatly feared.
Bloody Record in Cuba.
Geneial Weyler’s military methods
during the Spanish regime in Cuba
gained for him the name of “Butcher
Weyler” by his use of the most ruthless
military potver to put down disorder of
any kind.
• onservative statesmen express fear
over the present outlook. Even today,
within 24 hours after the murder of
Senor Canalejas, unrest is noticeable,
especially throughout Catalonia, where
radical Socialists are very strong. That
General Weyler’s life, should he be ele
vated to the premiership, would be in
constant danger from anarchists, is an
accepted fact.
Nearly 100 persons have been arrest
ed since the assassination. All known
friends of the assassin are either in
prison or under surveillance. Anar
chist clubs have been raided by soldiers
and further meetings forbidden.
Seek Second Avowed Assassin.
While Senor Canalejas' body lies in
state in the chamber of edputies the
police and military authorities unite in
the conserving of the life of Manuel
I’ardinas Zarrate, the young assassin.
When ft became known that be was
in Buenos Ayres recently the opinion
was conceived that the plot had been
hatched in South America. It had been
known for- some time that two anar
chists had sworn to kill the late pre
mier and the authorities are now exert
ing every’energy to arrest the second
avowed assassin.
Countless telegrams of iegret poured
into Madrid from all parts of the world
today. The wife of the late statesman
and her son are prostrated.

SEARCHING SIDELIGHTS
ON GEORGIA POLITICS
By JAMES B. NEVIN.
There is a well authenticated rumor
abroad—and Atlanta unquestionably
will hope it is true—that Representa
tive William G.
r < w
Brantley, upon his
retirement from
congress next
March, will make
his home in the
city of Atlanta.
Mr. Brantley
will take up the
active practice of
1a w immediately
upon quitting con
gress. and as he
will represent one
client, at least,
with very exten
sive interests
throughout the
South, it is but
natural that his
mind should turn
to Atlanta as headquarters.
The congressman from the Eleventh
has had a distinguished career in the
national house. He entered, as the suc
cessor to that great Georgian, Henry G.
Turner, in 1896, and has served con
tinuously since. His term of service
covers eight congresses—from the F if
ty-flfth to the Sixty-second, inclusive.
He is 52 years of age. and very much
In the full vigor of splendid physical
manhood.
There has been very little —practical-
ly none at all—opposition to Mr. Brant
ley for re-election since he began his
congressional career. He would be now
a member-elect of the Sixty-third con
gress had he so desired. He retired
voluntarily, and much to the regret of a
constituency thoroughly attached to and
approving of hint. He is Georgia's
member of the ways and means com
mittee of the house —the most desirable
and powerful committee of congress.
If Mr. Brantley takes up his resi
dence in Atlanta, he may be very sure
of a cordial and hearty welcome.
Watchman Quillian, of the state Cap
itol, not being particularly busy all of
his time nowadays—it is only now and
then that somebody or Macon under
takes to swipe the capitol and walk
off witli it —amuses himself keeping tab
on the manner in which visitors in
quire their way about the big building.
He has found that only about four
teen per cent of visitors refer to the
dome as the "dome.”
“The most popular name for the
dome," said the watchman, discussing
the matter today, "is ‘cupalo.’ Next to
‘cupalo’ comes ‘belfry.’ and then it runs
along to ’tower’ and 'steeple,' and once
a fellow called it the ’turret,’ but he
remains the only one in his class.
“The dome is a favorite place for
newlyweds to overlook the city of At
lanta —and. really, the view from there
Is very fine. There are many visitors to
tile dome every day. I have found that
tlie majority of people who call the
dome a 'steeple' hail from the country—
the rural districts—and when a man in
quires the way to the 'cupalo.' I know,
good and well, he comes from some
where north of Mason and Dixon's line.
I don’t know where that fellow who
called it a 'turret' resides when at home
for I never thought to ask him.”
The proximity of t'olonel James
Hamilton "Lewis to a United States sen
atorship in Illinois—it looks as if he
has a tine chance to win—is gratify
ing to a great many Georgians.
Mr. Lewis hailed originally from Sa
vannah. and resided for a time in Au-
gusta. He has friends —scores of them
—all over Georgia, and they are look
ing, both anxiously and lovingly, to
ward Illinois, with the hope rampant in
their breasts that Mr. Lewis yet may
snatch the plum he is reaching for.
Mr. Lewis’ pink whiskers have fur
nished a theme for no end of pert par
agraphic jabs and editorial joshing
throughout the United States, and all of
that he has taken In good part—for
he’s a jolly, good fellow, which no one
can deny.
Nevertheless, when he was a member
of the national house of representatives
he was rated safe and sane—and sani
tary—on all propositions, and when he
retired his state lost a faithful and effi
cient servant.
Georgia would like to see James
Hamilton Lewis, pink whiskers and all,
sent to the senate.
The last county to send in its official
returns in the presidential election was
Gilmer—grand old Gilmer, of several
and many varieties of fame.
This by many is regarded as rather
curious, too, In view of fact that
Gilmer's sometimes effectively adjusta
ble vote was not needed as a last min-,
ute factor to swing the state in any
particular direction.
If Gilmer this time labored under the
impression that it was up against an
other firemen-save-me-chie-e-eld stunt,
it was mistaken. And It might just as
well have come along with its returns
on scheduled time, and avoided unnec
essary delay in footing up the totals.
Says The Albany Herald:
Already there are signs—some of
them cropping out right here in
Georgia—that certain elements
claiming to be Democratic have
made up their minds not to be
pleased with anything that Wood
row Wilson does.
It is not likely, however, that serious
objections will be raised against Pres
ident Wilson in Georgia before the dis
tribution of the pie has been effected.
If he gets through handing out that
without making ten people sore where
lie pleases one. he will be something of
a wonder —the which a great majority
of Georgia people devoutly will hope
he is.
Editor Clarence Levy, of The Bruns
wick News, is an Atlanta visitor.
“The thing, and the only thing, that
Brunswick will ask especially of the
forthcoming Democratic administration
is that its harbor be made that which
it so easily may be—the greatest har
bor on the Atlantic coast,” said Mr.
Levy, discussing the effect the late
election should have on Georgia and
Georgia affairs.
"The greatest navy yard In the world
might be located at Brunswick —the
physical conditions are ideal. Noted
engineers have pointed out to Republi
can congresses, time and again, the tre
mendous advantages of Brunswick—un
der a new order of things in Washing
ton. Brunswick hopes to come finally
into its own!
“There never was any question about
Wilson winning in my vicinity—the
Bull Moose movement amounted to very
little and the Taft movement to noth
ing whatever."
"It is a pleasure to tell you that
Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy is the
best cough medicine I have ever used,”
writes Mrs. Hugh Campbell, of Lavonia,
Ga. "I have used it with all my chil
dren and tin results have been highly
satisfactory.” For sale by all dealers.
