Disturbs Leaders.
WASHINGTON. April 14. The
plans for the Democratic caucus on

i. Curbed by the announcement that
Majority Leader Underwood is sick
In bed. suffering from a general
breakdown from overwork.
I nderwood has been laboring un
ri*r a severe strain since the tariff
r<i»*»rt was begun. It is feared he

t'Of* noa m taxation, was the business
before the caucus to-day.
To-day's struggle centered about
the u heat duty w’hich has been re
duced by the committee from 25 cents
in the present law to 10 cents in the
V' nderwood bill. Flour has been
n’a'-ed on the free list and an amend

Little Fruit Left to
Hurt. Says Worsham
Peach Crop Damaged by March 27
Freeze More Than at First
Estimated.
■'There's not much of a peach crop
left tn hutt" was the statement of E.
Lee Worshaw, State Entomologist,
w hen asked to-day if the present cold
spell was damaging the peach or
chards of the State.
He said that the latest reports from
all parts of Georgia show that th"
destruction due to the’reeze of March
27 will be much larger than original
ly estimated, probably running to
more than HU per cent and involving
considerably over $1 .(HiO.liub.
"The undeveloped jiepches are drop
ping off the trees in districts where
the damage at first was regarded as
not very serious." declared Mr. Wor
sham. "The losses in the southern
part of the Stat" are much heavier
than was thought. Fruit growers
from that section have informed me
that half their crop is ruined."
Mr. Worsham and T. G. Hudson,
former Agricultural <'ommis’ioner, re
turned t<'-dny from Fort Gaines,
where they distributed wilt-resisting
cotton seed.

BEAVERS’ EDICT
Police Watch Suspected Places
With Instructions to Make Ar-

STARTS WAR ON "MASHERS”
Twelve Cases on Docket and Five

Sincerity of Ukase.
"Our war nn vic? is permanent.
Every suspicious place will be
watched, and whenever there is
sufficient evidence to convict ar
rests will be made. The vice laws
will be enforced all the time.
There will be no halting and no
let-up."
—POLICE CHIEF BEAVERS.
Police Chief James L Beaveis hai
mad? it plain one? mor? than there
will be no slackening in the war on
vic? in Atlanta. He one? mor? crushes
the hopes of th? men who have been
waiting impatiently forth? "let-up”-
they considered inevitable.
Acting on his specific instruction?
th? polk? vic? squad is keeping a
strict watch to-day on numerous
downtown hotels and boarding houses
and. under orders, will make imme
diate arrests if complaints that have
been coming to the Chief are found to
b? based on fact.
"Vice has gon? from Atlanta tn stay
Ron? —this warfare is peimanent " the
Chief told th? vice squad. You must
not get w?ak-kn?ed.
"Be Sure You Are Right.”
"Every suspicious place must be
closely v.at< hed. and whenever you
get sufficient evidence to convict, then
make arrests and bring the offenders
before the courts. Always b? «ure
you right before you make a move,
but when you ar? satisfied you ar?
right, then mo\e. These vice laws
nni‘t be enforced al! the time —there s
no halting nor lei-up.
"Keep your eyes wide open and en
force th? laws impartially.”
Chief Beavers let it be known that
he is just as aggressive against vice
as h? was the day he issued his fa
mous or ler closing the tenderloin, and
also gave th? vice squad to under
stand that there is to be no grad
ual slackening of the lines.
Five Women Locked Up.
As a result of his pointed instruc
tions. twelve vice rases ar? on the
docket for trial before Recorder
Broyles. Five women were locked in
the matron’s ward at th? police sta
tion this morning, th? greatest num
ber confined there in a long while.
Chief Beavers also directed the
plainclothes men to "make it hot" for
the street corner mashers, ano chas*
them from their accustomed rendez
vous: on prominent corners.
"These mashers must be given to
understand that they can not molest
and annoy women in th? reels," said
th? Chief.

Declares His Wife
Beat Him With Poker
J. M. Cossett Claims To Be Real
Victim of Cruelties—Both
Seek Divorce.
i'barging that his wife's conduct
was that of a "wildcat" instead of a
human being. J. N. Cossett to-day
filed an answer to the petition for
divorce of Mrs. Elizabeth Cossett. of
87 Stonewall Street, filed with the
Superior Court Saturday.

ing his wife cruelly, as was stated in
her suit, he was the sufferer from
her fits of anger. She struck him
with a brick, he said, beat him with
a poker, fought him with a cleaver
and threw dishes at him.
Cossett asked for a total divorce
and that his wife be restrained from
having the custody of two minor
children.

Special Cable to The Georgian.
ROME, April 14.—A sudden fall
of temperature, accompanied by
heavy rein, thia afternoon led the
phyaiciana attending Pope Piua X
to fear untoward results upon the
patient. The chief cause for anx
iety wae that the raw air mlgnt
provoke a fatal coughing spell or
aggravate the aymptome of bron
chitis and incipient pneumonia.
ROME. April 14.—At 1 o’clock
<7 a m. Atlanta time) this
afternoon It was announced that the
rendition of Pope Plus X had
malned stationary' throughout the
morning and at that hour showed no
I change
5:30 p. m. (11:30 a. m. Atlanta
time.) —Within the teat half
hour the Pope has suffered an
alarming increase of'temperature.
Ho hae grown very restlese and
shows signs of being in great dis
tress. which has led to grave fear
that the tendencies toward pneu
monia are developing.
Tho Popo'a favor rose to 101.2
thia aftlrnoon.
Ths crisis In the condition of
the Pontiff may camo to-night.
7 p. m. (1. p. m. Atlanta time).—
The condition of Pope Piua X at
this hour io reported very grave.
Dr. Marchiafava has just been
summoned to the sick room for
consultation with his colleague.
Dr. Amici.
The Swiss guards around the Vat
ican. and especially those near lha
Pope's bed chamber, have aaaln been
ddubled.
Urge Pope to Obey Doctors.
Two beds pave been placed in the
antechamber of the Pope's apartment
for additional night watchers.
Following the suggestion of Dr.
Marchiafava, all the cardinals In
Rome have written entreaties to tho
Pope to follow the doctors' orders, so
that he might recover.
The condition of the Pope was so
I grave early to-day as to cause tha
utmost alarm to hla family and the
Roman I'atholic officers of state In the
Vatican, yet the attending physicians
still hold hope that the present crisis
I may be passed safely.
Danger Now From Pneumonia.
It was athnitted that the greatest
danger now Is from a form of pneu
monia. At 9:50 this morning Dr"
Marchiafava issued the following bul,
letta:
The Pope passed ths night tran
quilly. Tha bronchial symptoms
aro reassuring. His temperature
is 98.24. Ths general condition of
His Holiness is satisfactory.
This bulletin was issued after a
< onsultation between Dr. Marchiafava
and Dr. Amtell the two Vatican phy
ricians "ho are attending the Pon
tiff.
At the consultation the two doctors
arrived at the conclusion that the
symptoms of bronchitis were not any
| more advanced and probably could be
' overcome.
Pope's S'sters at Bedside.
Hope was taken from the reduction
of the Pontiff's temperature to w* 14.
w hich was about normal.
Shortlv after midnight the Pope's
temperature reached 102. but a little
1 later it began to go down
Dr. Amici and the jwo sisteta of
the Pope remained at the bedside all
night. Lie v e Sarto left early n the
