DR. JAMES W.’lEET’FORMER
ATLANTAN, VISITS MACON
Dr. James W. Lee. for many years
paator of Trinity and Park Street
Methodist Churches in Atlanta,
passed through the city Saturday on
the way to Macon, where he will on
Sunday preach the commencement
lermon at Wesleyan Female College.
Dr. Lee's latest book. "Tre Religion
of Science.” has just gone into its
third edition.
-ONG REACH. CAL.. May 24
; Five hundred persons were hurled to
[ the beach this afternoon. 42 were
killed and more than 150 injured,
when the stage of the Municipal Au-
| ditorium. a part of the Municipal pier
' extending over the ocean, collapsed
The accident occurred during the
j celebration of Empire Day, Queen
! Victoria’s birthday. Fully 20,000 for-
I mer subjects of the British Empin
had assembled at Long Beach for the
celebration.
The ceremonies were taking place
on the pier., and in the audit Tiiim.
I Five hundred persflns had been seated
on the stage, when the structure gave
way.
Piled Among Wreckage.
Those seated on the stage were
| piled in a mass of wreckage at the
very edge of the ocean itself. First
reports that reached the downtown
sections here said that the crowd**
had bten hurled into the water. When
the rescuers from the city reached the
scene they found the injured huddled
in a tangled mass, the spectators
crowding about trying to render aid.
Work of removing the injured was
at ono£ befcun. Evfery physician and
nurse wrs sent to the scene and
others from nearby cities summoned.
A special train carrying physicians
and nurses was rushed here from Los
Angeles at the behest of Mayor Alex
ander there.
The injured were removed to the
shelter of cafes along the beach. The
dead were laid in row's on the sands.
Forty-two bodies were removed from
the debriv. Many of the injured are
so seriously hurt that they will die.
Fell More Than 40 Feet.
The auditorium occupied a second
story of the pier structure. The plat
form, w ith its load of people, crashed
to the floor below and carried it to
the sands. The fall was more' than
40 feet. Thousands were standing
outside the auditorium when the
crash came.
The exercises of the day had begun
with a parade through the streets
It had just reached the pier, where
the spectators had assembled, when
the accident happened. When the
doors of the auditorium were thrown
open and the waiting throngs started
in, the sudden weight of people was
too much for the floor, and it gave
way. A space 40 by 60 feet sank
beneath the crowd.
Pplice and firemen w r ere summoned
from Long Beach and were the first
to begin the work of rescue.
Late this afternoon it was reported
that the death list might reach 50.
and that more than 200 had been se
verely Injured.
1,000 Crossties Burn.

than 1,000 crossties of the Georgia

| CALGARY. ALBERTA, May 24.—
One minute and forty-five seconds
after Luther McCarty and Arthur
Pelkv met in the prize ring this aft
ernoon, Pelky landed a right-hand
punch squarely over the big cow
boy’s heart. Thirty minutes later
the former heavyweight white cham
pion of the world was dead.
For the first few seconds the fighi
was on even terms. The men went
at it carefully, feeling each other
out.
Pelky saw his chance. He threw
all his force into a right-handed
sif'frrg. It' lahdM-square. MATVrtf
crumpled up. His arms fell limp to
his sides, he reeled and fell back
ward.
The referee tolled out the count.
McCarty was unconscious before ten
was pronounced. His body heaved,
then became rigid.
Physicians were hustled into the
ring. They worked over the giant
fighter, but as they worked his face
took on a strange black tinge. Thir
ty minutes after the blow’ was struck
the physicians summoned to th4
ringside pronounced the fighter
dead.
An ambulance was hastily sum
moned. It clanged to the ring, three
miles from the city proper. McCar
ty's condition from the beginning
evidently was too serious to ever re
move him from the resin covered
canvas which where he lay.
The ring officials remained at the
arena while the physicians worked.
Most of the spectators sat quietly
in their places watching quietly the
efforts to resuscitate McCarty. \
When it was finally officially an
nounced that McCarty was dead, the
crowd filed slowly out of the aren-i.
Weak Heart Blamed.
McCarty’s death was said by phy
sicians to have been due to a weak
heart and the excitement superin
duced by the fight fully as much as
by the blow* itself. An examination
to determine whether the blow
caused an Internal hemorrhage was
decided on.
McCarty and Pelkv both seemed
cool and confident when they entered
the ring. They shook hands smiling
ly at the behest of Referee Ed W.
Smith, then posed for photographs.
Pelky was sure of himself, appar
ently. He began using a left jab
to the face. He landed three straight
lefts on McCarty. McCarty trie-J
rushing tactics. Pelky met him with
a stiff left to the jaw and a right two
inches below the heart.
The right landed with stinging ef
fect. McCarty wavered and stag
gered. then flopped over on his bacx
4The blow, though a hard one, w'as
not delivered with the full power >f
the fighter, and Pelky stepped back,
apparently ready to resume the fight.
He seemed surprised when his big
adversary failed to rise a? Referee
Smith began the count.
Pelky Placed Under Arrest.
Before ten had been counted Mc
Carty was evidently in a serious con
dition and his manager stepped to the
ropes and shouted a summons for a
doctor. Doctors in the audience at
once responded and they began ef
forts to restore McCarty. Artificial
respiration was resorted to. but it hail
no effect and strong stimulants were
used to produce a reaction in the
heart. McCarty was evidently fail
ing rapidly and as the doctors worked
it was evident that their hopes of
reviving the big fellow were lessened.
After 25 minutes of effort the phy
sicians suspended their work and
whispered together. Then they made
tests to determine whether the fighter
was still alive, A brief announce
ment from the ring was made, stating
that be was dead
A policeman entered the ring and
arrested Pelky. w ho had W4t< bed the

CATCHES
Sensational dictograph conversa
tions. in which Mayor James G.
Woodward, Charles C. Jones, former
Tenderloin proprietor and present
owner of the Rex saloon; E. O. Miles,
a private detective; A. S. Colyar, ac
cuser of Colonel T. B. Felder, and
Chief Lanford’s clerk. February, all
figure, are made public by The At
lanta Georgian to-day.
The conversations, all reported by
a dictograph installed in the Williams
House, in the same room and by the
same man who figured in the ''trap
ping' - of Felder, fend to throw new
and startling light on the alleged plot
to "get” Chief of Police James L.
Beavers, who wiped out the Tender
loin, and Chief of Detectives Lan-
ford.
As reported by George M. Gentry,
who took down the conversation as
it. trickled over the thin spun wires
through the door between Colyar’s
room, No. 31. and room No. 32, it is
apparently made clear that the May
or was not only after evidence of
graft in the police department, but
more directly after evidence on which
Chief Beavers could be impeached
and discharged. The Mayor has
never hesitated to make plain that
he was hoi in sympathy with the
chief’s attitude.
The conversation in which the
Mayor figured seems to show that
he promised protection to the man
who would get the evidence if he
should get In trouble doing it, and
that he gave assurances the work
would be well paid for.
The Mayor was present at the con
ference with February, Colyar and
Miles. . The entire dictograph con
versation in which he figured is given
elsewhere.
Far more sensational is the con
versation in which Jones, Miles and
Colyar took part. Jones viciously at
tacked the police department, charg
ing graft and crookedness; accused
Marion Jackson. Men and Religion
Forward Movement leader, of being
the beneficiary of vice, and said he
had been double-crossed in the wip
ing out of the Tenderloin.
Colonel Felder's name is men
tioned time and again in the con
versation of the three, and more than
one reference is made to the alleged
offer of $l.ooa for evidence.
Here is the entire dictograph con
versation in which Mayor James G.
Woodward took a part as it was
reported to the police. A copy is in
the police files to-day.
A. S. Colyar, the man who engi
neered the entire sensation, of course,
take a leading part. The conversa
tion is first principally between him
and Chief Lanford’s clerk, February,
and E. O. Miles, a private investiga
