Sheriff Mangum issued the follow ing announcement to-day: To the Public and Citizens of Fulton •County: Some complaints are being made in regard to the handcuffing of a pris oner while being transported to and from the Tower to court. # When only one prisoner is to be handled, if lie is not violent or un ruly he is allowed to go with an offi cer or officers without being hand cuffed, be he white, black or any oth er color known on earth, regardless of sex, creed or nationality. The Sheriff and his deputies are responsible for the safe handling of a prisoner and my belief is that the people of Fulton County have confi dence in their Sheriff and his men. Respectfully, C. W.

Section 33 provides .hat persons of suspicious intentions Miall be driven from the country • nd not be allowed to return except on special permission from the Government. It was decided that no official greet ing shall be extended to Mr. Lind thus breaking a tradition which is as immemorial as diplomacy itself. After, the conference Senor Aldape *:aid: "The Government has decided upon a definite course of action to be fol lowed in the present situation, and ve believe that it will be approved by all persons of justice. President Huerta is striving to re-establish or der in Mexico, and he believes that outside interference, unless invited would do more harm than good President Huerta has the good of Mexico at heart, and I know that he would make great sacrifices in behalt of his country. f> Mexico’s Defy Ignored Until Lind Delivers Note. WASHINGTON, Aug. 8.—Pending the arrival in Mexico of John Lind, special and personal representative of President Wilson, this Govern ment will take no action with re spect to the defy issued by the Mexi can foreign office threatening to de port former Governor Lind as an un desirable alien. Offical confirmation of the issuance of the threat has reached the State Department, but Secretary Bryan and other Government officials say the United States will make no move un til it is seen whether the Mexican Government intends to carry out its threat. Former Governor Lind is due to reach Vera Uruz to-night. If he makes good connections he should get to Mexico City in time for a con ference with President Huerta to morrow afternoon. It is believed here the Mexican President will be forced to confer with President Wilson’s representative, if only to discover the nature of the communication it has been admitted the former Governor of Minnesota carries with him. Should President Huerta deem it best to expel Mr. *Lind, the United States may be forced to take drastic measures, but it is hoppd at the State Department that this undesirable al ternative will be avoided by a change of front on the part of the Mexican President after he receives Lind’s message from President Wilson, the contents of which is unknown here to anyone save the President and Secretary Bryan. After a conference with the Presi dent, Secretary Bryan to-day an nounced that the statement sent io the American Embassy at Mexic • City for the Mexican foreign office SEMI-ANNUAL STATEMENT For the six months ending June 30, 1913, of the condition of The National Life end Accident Insurance Co„ OF NASHVILLE, TENN., Organized under the laws of the State of Tennessee, made to the Gov ernor of the State of Georgia in pursuance to the laws of said State.
