Two registered letters sent from the postoffice in Washington, Ga., on April 13, containing negotiable papers, thir teen of them sent to an Atlanta bank, approximating $7,000. have been re ported as lost or stolen in transit and an Investigation is on by the postal authorities to tlx the blame. The more valuable of the two let ters, containing the thirteen notes, was sent to the Fourth Nation al Bank of Atlanta by one of the Washington banking institutios for discount and credit. When ac knowledgment was not received from the Atlanta correspondent in regular course by the Washington bank a tracer was started, which developed the fact that the registered letter had never reached its destination. Postmaster Poche, of Washington, was in his office for the tirst train leaving Washington on the morning of April 13—Sunday—and was a wit ness to the fact that the registered letters were dispatched from the Washington office by one of tfie clerks. The registered mail with three let ters for Crawfordville, the first sta tion on the Georgia Railroad from the junction at Barnett, it is claimed, was done up in a package together, according to the postal regulation known as “bracing,” and addressed: “Georgia Train No. 1—local package.” It has developed that one of the let ters addressed to a bank at Craw fordville and containing checks and cash items amounting to rn.ore than $250 was also missing from the pack age. This is the first instance In four teen years of the loss of a piece of registered mail handled either in the outgoing or incoming mail of the Washington postoffice.

Martin, well-known Missouri lawyer, chairman of the new National Democratic Fair Play Asso ciation. in explaining the organiza tion's objects. “Do you think,” lie added, “that a man brought up in the South would work under negro supervision, or that you would want your sister or wife working under a negro?” President. Wilson, Cabinet officers and Congressmen have received copies of the association’s platform, whicn advocates the segregation of white and negro races in Government de partments.

Bryan Scored for Temperance Views Has No Right to Tell His Guests Whether They Can Drink, De clares Congressman. WASHINGTON. April 25.—Con gressman Bartholdt, of Missouri, who for years has led a campaign to re store the canteen in the army, to-day said that no host, particularly a Sec retary of State, had a right to tell his guests whether they could take a drink. “I deeply regret that the question of whether a man shall take a drink of wine with his dinner should have become a State question,” he said. “Mr. Bryan is forcing his personal views on officials whom lie is enter taining as Secretary of State. That’s improper. “Dollar diplomacy of the Republi can regime was the target of criti cism, but grape juice diplomacy, I fear, will be much less effective so far as our national prestige is concerned.” Ship Leaves Husband Bride Grows Frantic Absent-Minded Denver Man Is Put Aboard Liner From Tug After Heart-Breaking Chase.

Makes New Attempt for Freedom From the Yoke Which the South Keeps on Her. LONDON, April 25.— Protection for the cotton trade of Lancaster, by fos tering the supply of cotton indepen dent of America, was the gist of Chancellor Lloyd George’s argument on introducing In the House of Com mons a resolution permitting the Brit ish Government to guarantee a Sudan loan of $15,000,000 for tlie develop ment of cotton growing alorrg the Nile. The Chancellor of the Exchequer remarked that occasional difficulties with regard to supplies of American cotton, arising from the market being cornered and thus causing a short age here despite abundant crops, made it necessary to foster the growth of cotton where it would be under British control. Egyptian cotton, he claimed, was better from the point of view of the manufacturer because of the quality of the goods obtained from that prod uct, and also better from the point ol view of the workman, because it was cleaner and more healthful to work than American cotton. The resolution was adopted with out division. Million^ Spent by Europe. With the $15,000,000 Sudan loan, England will have spent $17,347,859 ir* attempts to become independent of the cotton fields of the Southern Unit ed States. Germany and France com bined have spent about $1,000,000 in the same way, and Russia has pour ed out money like water for irri gation projects in Asiatic possessions, v here cotton is grown. These figures include not oniy Governmental ex penditures, but also funds raised by spinners. The United States raises something like three-quarters of the world’s cot ton crop The great cloth industries of Europe are absolutely dependent upon the American farmer. A short crop, or manipulation in the futures markets, lias made the European manufacturers pay “through the nose” time and again. The attitude of the Southern cotton men in the face of the desperate at tempts to grow an important quantity of cotton elsewhere is “we should worry.” Causes Only a Smile. Lloyd George’s statement about the superiority of Egyptian cotton is not to be challenged, but it provokes a smile. Egyptian cotton is better—so much better that America itself imports large quantities of it. Egyptian cotton has a long, silky stapie. from which the finest grades of hosiery are made. Its nearest rival is the sea island cotton of Georgia and the other Atlantic States. It competes with silk, not with other cotton. It is, and always will be, too high grade and too expensive for use in ordinary cloths. With improvements in mill machinery, the spinners are striving every year to make the same grades of cloth from shorter and shorter staples, with the consequent economy. American cotton, even at its highest price, is cheaper than Egyptian, for which the demand exceeds the supply. Churchill Robbers Got Martin’s $10,000 Scotland Yard Detectives Hear Mem phis Mif'ionaire Lost That Amount • o One Night’s Play. LONDON, April 25.—The woman and two men who stole private naval data and $2,500 from Winston Church ill, First Lord of the Admiralty, at Cannes* recently, have been traced by Scotland Yard detectives.

IMPORTANT DATE FORCED WILSON TO LEAVE GAME WASHINGTON, April 25.—Presi- dent Wilson wrestled with conflicting desires as he watched yesterday’s Boston-Washington baseball game. He went to the contest hoping that it would be concluded in time for him to meet Secretary Bryan at the White House* at 5 o'clock for a final confer ence before the latter took a 6:45 train for the Pacific coast. 9 The game was close and exciting and reached its climax as the time approached for the President to leave. Washington had overcome Boston’s lead, tieing the score 2 to 2, and things were breaking well for the Washington team. The President looked at his watch regretfully and told Secretary Tumulty that if his engagement had not been with the Secretary of State he might have been tempted to be a little late.
