Following litigation begun several
days ago, Chancellor T. N. McCon

Suffraglats Need Not Search Farther
Than Atlanta/She Writes, to Find
Perfect Men for Parade.
Report Shows Absence of Fatali
ties in Georgiaa Street Rail
ways in 1911 and 1912.
Suffragettes, too
discriminating,
have not helped their cause in At
lanta by their search for the "ideal
man," it seems. Iti fact, the an
nouncement from New York that the
suffragettes are hard up against it
to find desirable men for their pa
rade May 2 has incurred the actual
enmity of one young woman in At
lanta who is wrathful because they
have overlooked her “Clarence."
And, writing to The American yes
terday. the resentful girl declared
that 5,000 other girls In Atlanta are
angry, too. Five thousand maidens are
firmly convinced—each one—that the
men w ho are wooing them are nothing
short of Ideal.
The suffragettes, for their national
parade in New York May 2, want
fifty “Ideal man suffragists 1 ' to march
with them. So far, it is announced

That not one person among the

the most remarkable feature in con

WASHINGTON, April 19.—“In
Indiana I was charged with not being
progressive enough, while now I am
denominated as an anarchist,” was the
comment of Vice President Marshall
to-day in further explaining his viewa
on wealth expressed in his New York
speech recently which has aroused &
storm of discussion.
”1 myself have not made any
charges against the rich men of Amer
ica. I have merely voiced what I
thought to be public opinion. I do
not desire to limit the accumulation
of wealth in America. I desire only
to call attention to those charged with
wrong dealings to that charge and to
give them an opportunity to disprove
he is now. —
there, and came back here to wind
up some affairs. When the while
truth is known no one will blame me
for wanting to get my son and grand
son away from this woman. 1 did
everything I could for her, and,
frankly, it was I that raised the baby
instead of her.”
The young mother stated yester
day she would vigorously prosecute
the indictment.
“I can not give my personal assent
to a system of government which is
either paternalistic or socialistic in
Its character, and I have felt that if
those who have obtained special priv
ileges through legislative enactments
really could understand the feeling of
the American people they would. In a
spirit of loyalty to our institutions,
consent that special privilege bo
speedily done away with and that
the old-fashioned Jeffersonian
theory of equal and exact Justice to
all men become the economic policy
of the United States. Wipe out
special privilege and the strained re
lations .between the enormously rich
and the great masses of the people
will dispapear.”
Senator Warren, of Wyoming,
speaking for the regular Republicans
in the Senate, took issue with the
Vitfc President. The Senator denied
that a revolution is theatened in
America be< ause of the concentration
of wealth aid added:
“If the Vice President is correctly
quoted I must say that I differ in
toto with him.
“If the speech was an attempt to
coerce the acceptance of the pending
tariff affair, it will fall of its object.
On the other hand, we are probably
In far more danger of revolutionary
methods because of lack of employ
ment of our vast numbers of working
men through the efforts of misguided
Judgment in making too many and
too drastic changes in the tariff.”
they have selected only one, and are
puzzled as to whence shall come the
other 49. The American’s fair cor
respondent writes:
"I wish you would tell those suf-
ragettes, which you write about so
much, that they can get all the good
looking men they want in Atlanta.”
KEAD THE FOLLOWING TESTIMONIALS
Atlanta, Ga.. April 16. 1913.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:—
This Is to certify that for about two years
1 had been afflicted with Hemorrhoids and
Bleeding Piles and had taken various tr. at-
menta and consulted various physicians with
out receiving any permanent relief. After
making a thorough invest Ration of Dr. J.
D. Hughes, of 16*4 North Broad Street.
Atlanta, Ga., I decided to place my case
in his hands, which I did a short time ago.
1 wish to say that after taking two local
treatments in the offlee of Dr. Hughes, that
I have been completely cured of my troubles.
Before taking treatment from Dr. Hughes
my trouble had reached a stage where the
disease caused me grbat pain and suffering,
the piles Itching and bleeding to such an
extent that life was almost unliearable. I
have had no pain or suffering whatever since
consulting Dr. Hughes and It Is with pleas
ure that I write this letter and have told
Dr. Hughes that he may publish same, tr
he so wishes. I gladly recommend Dr.
Hughes to any one suffering /rom diseases
of this nature. 1 found Dr. Hughes to be
a gentleman In every respect and I know
that he will keep any promise which he
makes to hia patients.

A. n. FTDSON,
Notary Public, Fulton County, Ga.
Atlanta, Ga., April 16, 1913.
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:—
This Is to show that about four years ago.
after having been treated by numerous doc
tors and after tgking various treatments,
without success, I'went to Dr. Hughes, after
having suffered mor« than eight months with
Kidney ami Bladder troubles and other
complications, among them a frequent desire
to urinate without being ablp to do so
with any degree of success. Every time I
had a desire to urinate the pain and mis
ery were almost unbearable.
After Dr. Hughes examined me. he read
ily told me that he could completely cure my
«■;,?*>. The first 1 Kittle of his medicine re
lieved me to such an extent that I was
rile to sleep the first night: something I
had not been able to do in eight mouths.
Dr. Hughes, in my opinion, will treat
every one fairly and honestly. I found him
a gentleman wi.o can be relied upon. After
a little over four years since taking hts
treatment 1 write this letter to show him
my a; predation, because he is the only
physician who ever gave me the slightest
m:lef and after the four years have passed
1 feel and know I am completely cured, as
I have nev: r been liothered with this trouble
since consulting Dr. Hughes.

The figures Indicate a healthy
growth In passenger traffic, the In
crease of last year over 1911 being
4,372,973 passengers.
Another peculiar circumstance in
the record of the two years Is that
although the total number of passen
gers increased markedly, there w F as a
considerable decrease in the number
of transfer and free passengers. In
1911 the number of passengers in this
class was 15,929,623. Last year it

transfer and free passengers was al
most identical with that of 1911, al

creased by more than four million.
Savannah Comes Second.
The Savannah Electric Company,
which is the closest rival of the At

revenue passengers and 1,487,519 free

11,546,420. in 1912.
The 1912 statistics for all the eom-
panles of the State follow:
Alabama and Georgia are engaged
in deadly warfare.
They are not, really, of course, but
they are at war theoretically, for
the purpose of demonstrating at Fort
McPherson how Atlanta might be
successfully defended in case of a real
war and threatened invasion from the
West,
The Red army represents Alabama,
and the Blue army represents Geor
gia, and the Red i» pressing toward
Atlanta, determined upon its cap
ture.
On the night of March 28-24, the
Red army is camped thirty miles west
of Atlanta, near Douglnsvllle. One
division has crossed the Chatta
hoochee and camped for the night
near Camnbellton.
Tlie second battalion of the Seven
teenth Infantry is required, with a
machine gun platoon, to prepare a
sufficient defensive position o»v< ring
a portion of the Invaded territory
from the Campbellton Road to the
corrnl.
At 1:30 p. m. while in column of
squads on the purade ground, the
Seventeenth, under Colonel John F.
Van Orsdale, receives information
Southwest corner of the barrack-
that the head of the approaching Red
army (ipfantry) was, at 12 o’clock,
about 10 miles from McPherson, and
was advancing east on the Campbell-
ton Road. Also that Red infantry is
crossing Garrett's Road bridge, nine
miles west of McPherson.
Construction of Dsfonso.
In tills crisis, the second battalion
of the Seventeenth Infantry of the
Blue army is required to prepare its
position in such wise that it may
play well its part in protecting At
lanta against the Invaders, and this it
proceeds to do thoroughly and with
dispatch.
One company of the second battal
ion, recruited to war strength 150
men, under command of Captain Har
vey P Hobbs, takes a center position,
and »« the other three companies in
the battalion lake relative positions
north and south of the one company
noted, the work of the one company
serves to illustrate the'work the en
tire battalion would do.
In eight hours' time, this company
proceeds to construct defensive
trenches about a quarter of a mile
east of Lee Street, the entrance to
McPherson, and within the reserva
tion.
Theoretical Safety.
With the entire Blue army thus
theoretically distributed to withstand
the shock of the approaching Red
army, experts figure that Atlanta
would be perfectly safe from attack.
Thir defense of Atlanta, technically
outlined, was a problem submitted r> -
ccntly to the lieutenants' class at
Fort McPherson for solution.
While the defense of Atlanta may
be worked out engagingly enough
along theoretical lines, however, the
average army officer does not be
lieve the present army of the Unite!
States is maintained in sufficient
strength to make it effective against
a real enemy in time of actuai war
fare.
Speaking of this matter, one of tht
best known officers now stationed at
McPherson said:
Troops Not Available,
“We have something less than 25,-
000 troops available for field opera
tions within the continental limits
of the United States. Tljesc 25,000
are scattered from the Atlantic to
the Pacific. They could not be con
centrated and brought to effective
war strength In time to cope with an
army such as any first-class Europe
an power could land on the Atlantia
coast in three weeks' time. Wars
come suddenly nowadays, and Unr
ig litle time to prepare after the out
break War? come In two ways—
either by reason of outside aggres
sion, or by the will of our own poo pi
“Our military organizations are at
less than half strength, and we have
no trained reserves to swell them
quickly in time of distress.
“Maybe we shall learn a costly les
son in this matter by and by. In the
meantime, all we can do is to hope
otherwise."
