9 THE ATLANTA UEUKU1AJN AM) MEWS. Sidelights GEORGIA POLITICS American Envoy at Juarez Charged With Neglecting to Protect His Countrymen. WASHINGTON, July 28.—The re- moval from office of Thomas Ed wards. the American Consul at Jua rez, Mex., was requested of the State Department to-day by Representative Smith, of Texas, who charges that Edwards has been negligent in re lieving American refugees at Madera. Representative Smith acted on com plaint of his constitutenls in the El Paso district. The Congressman also urged Secre tary Bryan to stop the shipments of arms and ammunition from this coun try to the Huerta administration. “I informed the Secretary of State,” said Representative Smith, “that so long as we do not recognize the Huer ta Government we should not favor it by allowing it to secure arms from this country. We deny that they have a constitutional government and yet they are allowed to get arms and am munition. We ought to allow both factions to have war supplies or we ought to give the privilege to neither of them.” Smith says Bryan did not indicate what action would be taken regarding his complaints. Smith received telegrams to-day from his constituents saying that 3T» Americans are in peril at Madera among them a number of women and children. JAMIS U. S. to Hunt Down Dixon’s Assailant. WASHINGTON. July 28.— ‘Arnbas- sador Wilson—2:30 o’clock." This simple announcement, placed at the bottom of President Wilson’s official list of callers to-day, was the ( r.ly indication at the White House that the most momentous conference at the White House scheduled since President Roosevelt maneuvered the Russian-Japanese peace conclave was due to take place. For the past 36 hours the Presi dent has had before him the lengthy report dictated by Ambassador Wil son detailing all the events of im portance which have happened in Mexico from the time the Diaz re- j gime first began to topple down to | the attempted murder of Charles B. Dixon, the American immigration of- ] ficial, at Juarez on Saturday. Bryan Studies Report. Secretary Bryan, the first caller at the White House to-day, was closet ed with the President for more than an hour, while he discussed the de tails of the Wilson report. In discussing the Mexican situation with the newspaper cabinet to-day the President aif horized the state ment that nothii g has happened within the past tt n days to make mutters better or wtrse. The President further said that, as he has not yet conferred with Am bassador Wilson, he can not an nounce any future policy with re- spe< t to President Huerta or Mex ico for the reason that he has not decided upon one. To Hunt Dixon’s Assailant. Th* president beggeef to be excused tr- m making any comment upon the a*: ■in];ted assassination of Charles B. T> xon. the American immigration of- fi ial. who was shot at Juarez on Saturday because, he said, he did not have all the facts in the case before him as, vet. The President assured the corre spondents. however, that he has or dered a rigid investigation of the matter and that the State Depart ment will do everything possible to hunt down the guilty parties. There seems to be little, If any,, doubt that the Legislature is to hurry along the general tax act, just as It has hurried along the general appro* priations bill. There are, counting to-day, exact ly fourteen working days left to the Legislature’s credit. This does not include two Saturdays and two Sun days, however. It, therefore, may De seen that the Legislature can, if it will, place both the appropriations bill and the tax acts—the general tax act, a| least— in the hands of the Executive ten days ahead of adjournment, as he has requested. If this is done—and it likely will be done—the present legislature will have accomplished a record of speed never before equaled in the history of the State. Despite all the complaining and criticism to the contrary, the present Legislature has been the most prompt, within the memory of any Georgian, in the matter of passing the two vitally big and necessary measures of the session—the general appropria tions bill and the general tax act. Credit must be awarded the com mittee heads, the committees and the Speaker for this remarkable achieve ment, and President Anderson has given his assurance that the prorrtpt- ness of the House shall be duplicated in the Senate this week and next. Taken altogether, the record of the Legislature as made up for this ses sion is all right and a credit. It is, indeed, fur better than usual. Mr. Shuptrine, of Chatham is very much opposed to the measure permit ting the addition of a kindergarten system to the public schools of the State. Mr. Shuptrine does not believe the Constitution of ti e State contem plates anything of the kind, and, moreover, he thinks it would be but the first step in the direction of great ly expanding the school fund, already smaller than the necessities of the State seem to warrant. “If we permit this innovation, not warranted in thp fundamental law a: all, we shall have application made within the life of the present Legis- ■ re, perhaps, for more funds f o m^ct the kindergarten requirements," said Mr. Shuptrii. to-day. “I know that it is proposed to add this feature to the school system without additional appropriations to cover it. but that is merely a sop to fret the bill on the statute books. Once we inaugurate this system, we shall have to take care of it, and it will be argued that funds as now appropr- ated are not sufficient to handle the new department “Georgia already is dealing most generously with her schools—she is straining the limit to take care of them—and 1 am not complaining so much about that. But I do think it would be a sad mistake to add any further burdens to her budget—and certainly along the line of providing public education to tots from 4 to 6 years of age.” Senator M. C. Tarver has aban doned for the present his effort to get the Representatives and Senators of the various counties affected, in terested in the proposed Chickamau- ga Judicial circuit. “The bill could rot be passed at this session,” said Mr. Tarver, "for sev eral of the Representatives of the counties proposed for the new cir cuit are opposed to any change of the present arrangement. Others, while desiring a change, couldn’t get to gether on an arrangement of counties that was mutually satisfactory.” Mr. Searcey’s bill to make the buyer and the seller equally guilty in "blind tiger" cases, was killed in the Senate, upon the theory that it af fords the “blind tiger” exactly the protection he desires, rather than re tards him in the operation of his business. “The one thing a ‘blind tiger’ dread.' above all other things,” said a Senator, discussing the bill, "is that among his numerous customers may be one who will tell. “This bill removes that dread, for anybody who reported a ‘tiger’ under this measure would become a crimi nal himself. Besides, because of the law which excuses a man from in criminating himself in testifying, this man would become immediately in competent as a witness. “It is hard enough now to convict 'blipd tigers’, and it would be a thou sand times harder under this law. "Prohibitionists who seek to go th*» limits this hill proposes are to be commended for their zeal, perhaps hut surely not for their common sense. This bill is sound enough in theory, if you view it from a certain angle, but it falls to pieces as a prac tical measure and would defeat* the very object its author had in mind when he framed it.” The Senate defeated the measure by a vote of 18 to 22, which was not such a wide margin of defeat, after all. Resolution Providing for Its Re-1 consideration Adopted—White' washing of Soule Opposed. MUG 10 WIFE The adoption of a resolution calling for the reconsideration of the Searcy prohibition bill, making the selling of liquor purchased from a "blind tiger" a misdemeanor, which was defeated in the Georgia Senate Friday, feature) the session Monday. The bill prob ably will come up again this week un der special order rule. A hot fight is expected. Senators Foster and Hixon offered a resolution "whitewashing” the charges against President A. M. Soule, of the State Agricultural College. It sets forth that President Soule has ren dered valuable service which should be recognized by the withdrawal of the charge?, now pending in the House. The resolution will be con sidered Tuesday. That a bitter contest will take place when it is presented for adoption was indicated Monday by Senator Mc Gregor. who declared he would fight the measure to the last ditch, on the grounds that it is a “complete ‘white wash’ without any sort of investiga tion." * The most important new bill intro duced in the Senate Monday was that by Senator McGregor, limiting the power of the Governor in calling out troops in casr«e of disorder. The bill aims to take the State militia out of the so-called police jurisdiction, and requires affidavits by civil authorities before the Governor may call out troops. Senator Tarver's bill providing for the appointment of a State commis sion to investigate conditions as re gards drug us«ers, with a view to estab lishing a State Manitarium for them, was passed by the Senate. Senator Bush’s bill making the State Superintendent of Education an ex-ofiicio member of the eleven agri cultural schools of the State was lost after President Randolph Anderson made a fight on the measure. Senator McNeil’s bill providing for a new Great Seal of State, changing the date 1799 to 1776, commemorating the Declaration of Independence, was sent back to the committee. Clarence H, Mackay Sued for $2,000,000 NEW YORK, July 28.—That Clar ence H. Macksy, to keep up the pace of a millionaire’s son. borrowed heav ily in Wall Street and failed to pay back after he had inherited $40,000,- 000 from the estate of his father, is charged in a suit hrougnt by W. L. Stow, a broker, for an accounting of more than $2,000,000. The plaintiff was at the head of the firm of W. L. Stow & Co., which failed for $6,000,000 some years ago. He charges that Mr. Mackay is directly responsible for that failure by failing to meet obligations contracted in a pool organized to buy and contsol stocks and bonds of the Mexican Cen tral Railway. Kings to Send Costly Gifts to Miss Wilson WASHINGTON. July 28.—Despite President Wilson’** attitude in dis couraging the gift of Baltimore Demo crats to his daughter, Jessie, at her wedding next November to Francis B. Sayre, kings and princes of for eign nations will flood the White House with costly gifts. The marriage of a President's son or daughter is the only occasion on which foreign government** can get around the American constitution, which forbids the President accept ing personal gifts from rulers of for eign nations. The gifts from foreign potentates, naturally, cannot be discouraged. Tries to Assassinate f|D CTIIEMFQ R|[]Q Portuguese Premier j U n * □ I nII111Ld DILJ J Mexican Consul Says Negroes Shot Dixon. EL PASO, TEX., July 28. for the shooting of, United States Im migration Inspector Charles B. Dixon was laid upon a Mexican negro lieu tenant named S:\inz of General Sal azars army, and two American ne groes, in a .statement issued to-day W. M. Sexton.

Patterson, of No. 57 Powell street, Sunday night at the close of services *n St. Luke’s Methodist Church 4 n Powell street. Patterson told the court that Sexton is "insanely jealous.” Sexton, who is separated from his wife, attacked Patterson a short dis- ;mce from the church after he had seen h*m talking to Mrs. Sexton in side of the < hurch. Patterson said Mrs. Sexton called to him after the congregation had been dismissed, and that he meant no harm by conversing with her. He said Sexton lay in wait for him in a dark spot in Powell street and assailed him with metal knuc.ks. Sexton denied this. The two men were pummeling one another vigorously when interrupted by Detective Coker and Policeman Boggus. who were on their way home Mexican Consul Miranda According to Consul Miranda’s ver sion of the shooting, the two Ameri can negroes planned the attack upon Dixon on account of his activity in investigatig a “white slave" case and drew the Mexican negro into the scheme to do the shooting. Federal investigators have reported to the Mexican Consul here that Dix on was seized by Salazar’s soldiers without any orders. Dixon was released without bom and brought to El Paso yesterday. H* was pronounced out of danger by I)r j. \\\ Tappan, immigration service surgeon. The two American negroes who were arrested as plotters against Dix on were Arthur Walker and Harry Bell. They have been irregular sol diers in Salazar's command. Bell was said to have escaped into Mexico while awaiting trial on a charge of "white slavery.” Walekr is also want ed on the same charge in the United States. from the church service. Metal knucks were found on the groun 1. Patterson displayed an abrasion >n his head, which he said was made by I the knucks. Blame 1 When Sexton told Judge Broyles he had warned his wife not to talk to other men, the Recorder informed him that as he was s^narated from his wife hf' had no rieht t< oeat up every person he saw talking to her.” The jealous husban i was fined $25.75 and the case of Patterson was dismissed.

BERLIN, July 28.—The Berlin po lice have barred organ grinders, de claring that the majority of them ar strong enough to work, and that there is too much good music to be heard to have one’s nerves racked by hand- organs. A statement showing the general appropriation hill will carry $280,629 more than the revenue to be collect ed in 1914. estimating the latter on the 1913 basis, unless means for in creasing the income are devised, fea tured Governor John M. Slaton's mes sage to the General Assembly Mon day. Governor Slaton submits figures of the State Comptroller showing that fifteen countie# suffered a loss of $130,015 in tax returns to date. The Governor also calls attention to the present inadequacy of the election and appointment of United States Senators and calls for legisla tion along this line. Under the present law’, the Gov ernor points out, the executive has no power of appointment in the case of the death of « Senator. The State may also be without a Senator from March, the time of expiration of the term, until June, when the Legisla ture convenes. Governor Slaton therefore has rec ommended that the Secretary of State he empowered to canvass the vote for United States Senator immediately following the election. The Governor has corn sponded with Senator Hoke Smith and Senator Bacon in regard to this. A further recommendation by the Governor calls attention to an appro priation of $500 for expenses of the State Agricultural School. IS EPILEPSY CONQUERED?
