Asks Senate to Probe Contracts
With Armor Plate Trust Which
Mulcted U. S, of Millions,
WASHINGTON. May 19.—Sensa
tional charges of a maladministration
of naval funds that has cost the Gov
ernment over $6,000,000 and endan
gered the impregnability of the moat
formidable vessels in the American
fleet were n\ade against the Taft ad-
minif*tratlon to-day by Senator Ash-
urst, of Arizona, who has a resolution
before the Senate calling for an in
vestigation of Glass A armor plate
contracts awarded the armor plate
trust for the dreadnought Pennsyl
vania.
My investigation of this matter.’'
said the Senator, "has convinced me
that a most deplorable state of af
fairs existed with regard to the pur
chase of armor plate during the last
administration As I have heretofore
statod in the case of the dreadnought
Pennsylvania. approximately 8,000
tons of Class A plate was let to the
trust at $454 per ton. I have an ex
pert who is willing to testify that a
good profit could he made on such
plgta at a price <>f $254 per ton.
• The difference in these prices net
ted the trust $1,600,000.
Millions in Swollen Profits.
“I wlph to add to that statement
that if tfiose figures he found to be
correct. Class A armor plate contracts
on the dreadnoughts Arkansas. Neva
da, Texas and Florida, which were let
to the trust at $420 per ton, netted
that organization a swollen profit of
$4,571,972 on 24,542 tons of this com
modity. None of this material. I am
credibly Informed, was passed upon
by a Government expert, for the very
simple rea.‘*on that there was no man
in the employ of this country capable
of this important duty.
"I am not a jingoist or a large navy
'man,'* continued the Senator, “hut I
do want the United States to get a
square deal, and I intend to see this
matter through to the finish."
The Senator said (hat for years the
Midvale Steel Company, the Carnegie
S«eel Company and the Bethlehem
Steel Company, comprising an abso
lute monopoh in the manufacture of
armor plate, had maintained a lobby
in Washington and that they had con
spired to mulct the Government of
millions of dollars
In this connection, the Senator
called attention to the investigation
started in the House some years ago
* by John Sharp Williams, which re
sulted In the finding of a defective
plflte, and in the fining of the r«r-
Steel Company. This and other
amv>r plate, said the Senator, had
been Vurnished the Government at a
profit of approximately 50 per cent.
Senator Ashurst declared that not
onI\ would he push his resolution for
the investigation of the contracts of
Class A armor plate for the dread
nought Pennsylvania, hut that he
would endeavor to enlist his col
leagues in a campaign to break up the
armor plate trust and substitute Gov
ernment manufacture of this com
modity.
At the Bureau of Ordnance of the
Navy Department it was ascertained
that approximately 8.000 tons of Class
A armor plate had been let to the
trust at $454 per ton for the dread
nought Pennsylvania, and 27.542 of
Class A plate had been let to tlj£ same
organization for theibulldlng of the
dreadnoughts Arkema s, Nevada,
Texas and Florida.

Governor Joseph M. Brown Mon
day Issued a proclamation offering a
reward of $160 for the dynamiter of a
negro house on the plantation of
James T. Anderson. In Cobb County.
He said the crime indicated that cer
tain men in Cobb County had taken
up the movement started by a lawless
element In Forsyth Count.v to drive
the negroes out. and that a firm posi
tion by the State was demanded.
"I want it clearly understood that
this State will not make the slightest
concession to anarchy; and 1 feel con
fident the people are back of me," said
the Governor.
This action by Governor Brown
comes close on the heels of the offer
ing of rewards for the apprehension
of lynchers In Columbia and Heard
Counties. Copies of these proclama
tions have been sent to the county pa
pers of both these counties to be in
serted as advertisements
Issues Proclamation.
When the Sheriff of Cobb County
called Governor Brown early Mon
day and told him of the dynamiting,
he immediately responded with a
proclamation, clearly indicating that
he w‘is ready to begin warfare against
mob rule and uphold the supremacy
of the law with all available means.
Said the Governor:
"The State's process for enforcing
her laws is definite and complete. She
has not abdicated the power to appiy
that process nor does she permit her
power to be usurped by any person or
combination of persons. She does not
concede that anarchy in any form nor
in any degree shall supplant her
laws."
Blow House to Pieces.
The house, occupied by a negro
named Lewis, was blown to pieces
about 12:30 o'clock Monday morning
The negro was ordered to leave the
community last winter. He Med, but
returned again April I
When Sheriff Swanson reached the
scene soon after the explosion with
bloodhounds he was unable to follow
the dynamiters. It was discovered
that they had come and gone in a
buggy. The dynamite, with a long
fuse, had been pushed up under the
house.
Several negroes were ,in the house
at the time, but none was hurt. The
Anderson plantation is eight miles
south of Marietta on the Powder
Springs road.
Attacks on Negroes
Renewed in Cobb.
MARIETTA, GA.. May 19 Cobb
County officers to-day are searching
for unknown men who early yester
day wrecked with dynamite a ten
ant house on the farm of James T
Anderson, eight miles from Ma
rietta. The house was occupied by
a negro foreman
It is believed the same men are
responsible for this as for other dep
redations In this county in recent
months, all directed against negroes
in efforts to drive them from this
section. Heretofore one store was
burned near the Kennesaw Marble
Company’s plant and several notices
were posted in conspicuous places
warning negroes to leave. The per
petrators became so bold that special
watchmen were employed at many
factories and mills in and near the
city where negro labor is employed.
Mr. Anderson s foreman was one
of those warned to leave and did so.
but a month ago was prevailed on by
Mr. Anderson to return.
Early Sunday occupants of the
foreman’s house were thrown from
their beds by a terrific explosion. No
one was injured, as they were sleep
ing at the far end from where the
dynamite was set off.
Investigation revealed that the per
petrators had driven in a buggy to
within 30 fewt of the house and. with
a long pole, had pushed the dynamite
under the building, setting it off with
a three-foot fuse. They drove off be
fore it had time* to explode
The Sheriff was notified and hur
ried to the scene with a posse and
dogs, but the buggy tracks could not
be followed.
Citizens here are indignant over
these continued depredations and
have started a fund as a reward for
the apprehension of the guilty parties,
who are supposed to be low-class
i white men
Mr. Anderson declares that his fore
man is an industrious negro >vho does
not interfere with outsiders and sel
dom leaves the place.
Says Oysters Made’
Her Deaf; Sues Cafe
Six raw oysters on the half shell
caused Mrs. Ruth Cooper, of 123
Garnett Street, to lie for three days
in a semi-comatose state and perma

ing to her suit for $f>,000 damages filed
with the Superior Court Monday
against Harry Silverman, proprietor
of a restaurant.
The woman alleged that oysters she
ate in Silverman's place March 19.

B. Sanders Walker, Jr., Prepares
for End, When Told He Can
Not Survive Day.
MACON GA . May T9.-—**T wish it
was all over now.’ said B. Sanders
Walker, Jr., when told this morning
that thfs was his last day on earth.
He is dying from poison, having
swallowed a bichloride of mercury
tablet by mistake for a headache pill
last Thursday.
He is suffering intensely and is
very weak, his death being considered
but a matter of a few hours. His
father, B. S Walker, of Monroe; his
brother. Cliff M. Walker, Solicitor
General of the Western Circuit, and
other relatives are at his bedside.
Without exception, in every church
in Macon. Protestant and Catholic,
prayers were offered yesterday for
his recovery and his case was com
mented upin from nearly all the pul
pits in the sermons.
Walker’® case U one of pathetic
interest. He is one of the wealthiest
young business men in Macon or mid
dle Georgia, controlling property esti
mated at $700,000 valuation. He is a
graduate of the University of Geor
gia. in the class of 1903. 'He played
shortstop on the Georgia baseball
team while a student at Athens.
Walker was in the prime of young
manhood and a specimen of perfect
health when hla mistake of four days
ago placed him upon his deathbed.
After the first day the pain caused
by the gnawing poison eased and set
about its deadly work of slowly but
surely destroying the functions of the
kidneys and liver. Within another
day the kidneys were paralyzed. But
for a slight pallor, no one would know
from his appearance he was a living
dead man.
When told he could not recove r ,
Walker summoned several of his busi
ness associates and gave directions
concerning the disposition of press
ing business matters. Besides being a
banker, he is Interested in many busi
ness enterprises, particularly in real
estate.
"I know I must die." he said to his
friends. "It is something that can not
be helped, and I have made up my
mind to face it as bravely as possi
ble. I do not feel the slightest pain;
it is strange that I must die from a
cause that makes itself so little felt.
If I didn’t have so much faith in my
physicians and know that the poison
fs in my system. 1 would laugh at my
sentence to death.
"I suffered terribly from nausea and
burning pains for twelve or fourteen
hours after swallowing the poison;
then the distress gradually wore away
until it ceased altogether. It is diffi
cult for me to believe mv end is so
near.”
Following his return from a ban
quet given to delegates to the Georgia
State Bankers' Association, who were
in convention here. Walker, who left
his bed and donned his evening
clothes to attend the dinner, called his
lawyer and made his will. Previous
to going to the banquet, he was a lit
tle skeptical concerning his approach
ing death and as one of the hosts to
the bankers he was as gay as the gay.
Excepting for the sad and at times
tearful faces of his wife and children
and other relatives, it is difficult tj
realize the Walker mansion is a hous
of death. The members of the family
have agreed not to talk of the im
pending fate of the master in his
presence and make every effort to
turn his mind.from his approaching
end.

President Thinks Belief That
Americans Regard Them as
Inferior Riled Orientals.
WASHINGTON, May 19. -The Stare
Department indicated to-day that the
administration has completed its con
sideration of all points in the reply to
the Japanese protest against the Cal
ifornia land law, and It will be trans
mitted to Viscount Chinda, Japanese
Ambassador, either to-night or to
morrow, when, it is anticipated, the
State Department will make public ; n
official statement outlining both sides
In the controversy.
Secretary of Stat/> Bryan believes
this will be the best method of rid
ding the nation of its "war scare.”
Calls Pride Cause of Row.
That President Wilson believes the
root of the whole trouble lies in the
national pride of the Japanese was
Indicated at the semi-weekly news
paper Cabinet meeting to-day.
The President has concluded that
Japan is not so much annoyed by the
Webb bill as at the intimation that
Americans do not wish to meet the
Orientals on equal terms. This feel
ing. he considers, was born of the
Chinese exclusion act.
See Insult to Nation.
The Japanese, as a nation, do not
care particularly whether their broth
ers hold land in California, but they
feel a prohibition of this provides an
Insult to their race and country.
