SIO.OOO DAMAGE MUST

Atlanta is threatened with a serious
water shortage today as a result of
the unexpected cracking of the 20,000-
Sallon capacity Frank Rice pump at
the river station. Experts have.in
formed Acting Mayor Candler that the
pump is likely to break down complete
ly any minute.
ttlth the big pump out of commis
sion, the other two, running at full ca
pacity, will fail by 1,500,000 gallons to
send into the city the 21,000,000 gallons
daily consumed. Thia shortage tempo
rarily safeguarded by two reservoirs
containing 400,000,000 gallons. Os the
21,000,000 gallons pumped from the river
ver y 24 hours, 17,000.000 is consumed
throughout the cltv. The other 4,000,000
iullons is lost in seepage and the flush

BULGARIANS
DENY PLEA
OF TURKS
Hold Up Negotiations to Allow
Advancing Army to Take
Constantinople.
»
TO DEMAND OTTOMANS
BE CAST OUT OF EUROPE
BUCHAREST, ROUMANIA, Nov. 15.
—Roumanian officials were informed
this evening that Bulgaria and Turkey
had agreed upon an armistice.
SOFJA, Nov. 15.—The Bulgarian cab
inet today rejected Turkey’s plea for
an Immediate armistice. The Porte was
officially notified that the other mem
bers of the Balkan league would have
to be consulted and that final negotia
tions would have, to be made by- the
opposing commanders. This reply
shows Bulgaria, is seeking time In
which to force the last defenses of
Constantinople.
The Bulgarians today’ contin
ued their steady advance on
Constantinople. A dispatch from
that city stated that Czar Ferdinand’s
troops had reached Kilios, on the coast
of the Black sea, at the entrance to the
Bosphorus, only a few miles from the
Turkish capital. This indicates that the
defense of the Turks on the Chatalja
lines has been completely shattered and
tl4< the Bulgarians may enter Con
stantinople within a few hours.
Eighty heavy bore Krupp guns were
captured from the Turks by the Bul
garians when the Bulgars broke the
Turkish right wing at Chatalja today.
The guns had just arrived at the Turk
ish front and were still unpacked. They
will be set and used by the Bulgarians.
Bulgaria will agree on peace
with Turkey only on conditions
of eliminating the "Sick Man of
Europe” from continental affairs, and
will grant an armistice only on abso
lute assurance that Turkey will com
ply with all agreements made in the
negotiations now pending.
This was decided upon today at a
cabinet meeting, presided over by Pre
mier Guerchoff. Formal draft of the
conditions providing for an armistice
was drawn up’ to await the arrival of
King Ferdinand from the front. In the
meantime there will be no cessation In
Bulgaria’s military campaign.

''ontinued on Paq» Two.

DON’T MISS THE GEORGIAN’S
AUTO SHOW SUPPLEMENT
The Georgian will publish tomorrow a section devoted to
automobiles and automobile news, with special reference to the
great motor car show which opens at the ; Auditorium-Armory.
This supplement will perhaps not be as large as some
which have been issued, but in respect of art work, editorial
matter and the handsomeness of the advertisements it will be
considerably better than anything of the sort ever before pub
lished in the South. It will be invaluable to the owners of
motor cars and to the trade.
EX-SEN. TERRELL
IS NEAR DEATH
Joseph M. Terrell, former governor
and United States senator, is extreme
ly low today’ at his home in Juniper
street and is not expected to live a
great while longer.
The senator has lapsed into a state
of unconsciousness, from which there
are grave fears lie never will revive.
His death is thought to be a question of
a few days at bestti if not hours.
The senator’s condition has been ex
tremely precarious for several weeks,
but not until today has hope been prac.
tically abandoned. He never has recov
ered from the strode of paralysis he
sustained in Washington some eight
een months ago, and such apparent re
covery as he made from time to time
proved to be temporary only.

CREMATORY ROW
UPTOALDERMEN
Advocates of the new $276,000 crema
tory’ announced today that they’ would
not take the fight back to council by
asking for an additional appropriation
for excavations for the plant. They
expect the aldermanic board to order
the destruction of the ojd crematory at
its meeting Thursday. Then they will
try to transfer funds to supplement the
SI,OOO appropriated for the excavations
with appealing to the city council.
Dr. W. L. Gilbert, president of the
board of health, called on Acting Mayor
Candler today in an effort to affect an
arrangement to secure additional funds.
The lowest bld for the excavation work
was $3,000, but all the oftieials declared
that these bids were too high.
Acting Mayor Candler said he fa
vored proceeding with the work as soon
as It could be done legally. He said,
however, he did not think any action
should be taken until the aldermanic
board made its decision Thursday.
Dr. Gilbert said the health depart
ment might proceed to use the SI,OOO
available for excavation at once, but
that nothing important would be done
until after the aldermanic board meet
ing.
Woodward Appeals to People.
Mayoralty Nominee Woodward said
today that the people should rise in
their might and prevent the destruction
of tlte old cremate: y. Many interpret
his statement to mean that he would
endeavor to take the matter to the peo
ple.
At the meeting of the aldermanic
board Mr. Woodward will make his
plea. Aiderman Van Dyke will move a
reconsideration of the resolution au
thorizing the destruction of the old
crematory.
But Dr. Gilbert and his allies said
today there was no doubt tile alder
manic board would order the old cre
matory demolished.
W. E. Dowd, tin representative of
the Destructor Company, called on Mi.

POISON MYSTERY GIRL
IN LAST CRY 10 MOTHER
ACCUSEDISWEETHEART
“He Wrecked My Life; May He Be
Rewarded; I Never Want to See Him
Again,” She Said—Mrs. Marchman
Sure Daughter Was Poisoned—Hopes
Cleghorn Will Be Punished.
By Staff Correspondent.
ASHBURN, GA., Nov. 15.—Pretty seventeen-year-old Minnie
Marchman, of Amboy district, dramatically accused Tan Cleghorn,
her missing fiance, as she lay dying, according to a startling statement
made today to a Georgian reporter, by Mrs. Mattie Marchman, aged
mother of the girl.
“I never want to lay eyes on Tan Cleghorn again. He has wreck
ed my life and I want him to reap his just reward,” said the dying
girl just a few hours before her death, in the agony of convulsions.
Up to the time she realized she was dying Miss Marchman had
refrained from uttering one word against the man with whom she
was infatuated. Whenever his name was mentioned she remained
silent.
My Girl Poisoned, Says Mother.
She was repeatedly asked by her mother as to the cause of her
strange illness, but her only reply was to weep and moan.
Wildly in love with young ('leghorn, she spoke harshly of him
only when she was going into the beyond. Anil t hen the accusation
came with all of the passion that had for nearly a year characterized
her affection for him.
The mother, when seen today in
tlie little country home six miles
from Ashburn, frankly declared
her belief that her daughter was
poisoned.
“I am not prepared to say
whether M inner was poisoned for
the purpose of murder or possibly
to hide another crime, but I'm
satisfied she died of some deadly
drug. I cait not say that Tan
< leghorn administered the drug
himself, but I'm sure he was at
the bottom of it all. He is the
only person in the world who

could have had a motive to harm
her.”
Hopes Cleghorn
Will Be Punished.
"And Minnie was such a good girl,
too. Oil! it’s terrible," exclaimed ths
grief-stricken mother, overcome with
emotion. Mrs. Marchman said sb.
hoped Cleghorn, would be caught ant.
punished.
"I don't care what they do with him,”
she said.
VV. J. Cochran, brother-in-law of the
dead girl, said tod ij that if poison Is
found in the girl's stomach he will o
once begin . fYes ts to find the drugg'-'
who sold it. He declared that no effort
would be spared to capture Cleghoti.
