t * - 8 TTTTC ATLANTA ('< F.OLD!AN AND NEWS. IF FRESH IEFI Determined to Refuse to Recog nize Lind—Iron Hand Fails to Curb Carranza’s Activity. Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. VERA CRUZ, Aug. 10.—Captain Snowden, of the battleship New Hampshire, at the direction of John Lind, Special Ambassador from President Wilson to Mexi- oo, to-day sent the following wireless to Admiral Fletcher, com mander of the flotilla of United States warships in the harbor here: “Governor Lind wishes to see the United States Consul and Ad miral Fletcher immediately upon his arrival at Vera Cruz Satur day. Governor Lind will not go to Mexico City until Sunday.” Sensational rumors were circu lated as to the cause for the con ference. The New Hampshire will probably arrive this evening. MEXICO CITY. Au*f. 10 —Maintain ing his iron hand attitude in spite of International menace from revolu tionary armies and threatened coer cion. Provisional President Huerta to-day continued his diplomatic bat tle with the United States by ffivin* orders to draft another note of pro test against the coming of Special Ambassador Lind, unless the l nlted States recognizes Mexico or halts Mr. Lind before he arrives In this city. A tense situation exists here pend ing the arrival of Mr. Lind, who has been retarded by the State Depart ment at Washington. It is likely that Mr. Lind will not arrive here until Sunday or Monday, if he is not de tained en route on orders from Sec retary Bryan. Huerta s hope that defiance of the United States might break down the revolutionary spirit in the north seems to have been futile, according to a message from General Venus- tiano Carranza, leader of the rebels. Gains Fresh Followers. This was a reply to overtures to Carranza to Join his forces to the reg ular army in the event of a "foreign invasion.” However, Huerta has gained fresh followers among the rad ical clement by his defiance of Presi dent Wilson. Supporters of the pro visional president charge that th» United States Is preparing to act as It did in Cuba. Sensational reports were current to day relative to the diplomatic mission of General Felix Diaz to Tokio. Os tensibly Diaz is going to thank the Japanese Government for its repre sentation at the Mexican centennial, but the belief is growing that Japan has consented to make a treaty with Mexico, and that Diaz is really a spe cial ambassador. This treaty, it is reported, has to do with a league of Mrs. Osburn Arrives To Supervise New Y. W. C. A. Quarters Mrs. Cornelia B. Osburn, of Colum bus, Saturday assumed charge of the Young W T ornen’s Christian Associa tion in its new quarters, Nos. 12 and 16 West Ellis street, near the Carne gie Library-.

A. are handsomely appointed. Every de tail has been planned with the view of making the place inviting to the young women of Atlanta who are away from the protecting influences of parents and home. Vienna Banker's Wife Killed by Lightning common interests and not with com meroial right. It follows the move ment of the Government to Invite 5ft,- 000 Japanese emigrant-' here to colo nize the state of Morelos, which has been nearly depopulated by’ the re bellion. Insists on Recognition. Whether Huerta has any more cards to play in his diplomatic fight against outside interference with Mexican af fairs is a question known only to the provisional President and his closest* advisers. Huerta insists on "recog nition and no parley,” but the Gov ernment is not in condition to enforce his threat by war. The national treasury’ Is nearly de pleted and the army material of the country’ has been thinned to a mini mum by three years of revolution By diplomacy, however, he might still be able, by playing upon the Latin-American republics* fear of an nexation and upon the hostility » foreign powers to the spirit of th Monroe Doctrine, to force the Unite* States into a compromising position. Even Nelson O’Shaughnewsy. Chnrge d'Affaires of the United States Em bassy here, is not acquainted with th details of Mr. Lind’s mission. H has so informed the Mexican Foreign Minister. There is a big fleet of United States warships in the harbor at Vera Cruz to welcome thr New Hampshire, if which Mr. Lind is traveling. Th latest addition to the fleet is the gun boat Wheeling.

Was Carey and Cochrau right?” was asked by two or three at once. “The matter was not even men tioned,” replied the Mayor. ”It was understood that the meet ing of the committee was called to settle the row.

The ac tion of the Supreme Court gave me the power and I have locked the door and have the key safely in my pocket. The Finance Committee must not anticipate revenue that is likely not to show up.

Patrolman Peter Schaller. gave no answer to-day when arraigned for murder. the conciliatory statement given out by Secretary of State Bryan yester day. conditions remain unchanged. Washington is waiting to hear what General Huerta's specific course of action toward Lind will be. Huerta probably will not recognize the pres ence of Mr. Lind in Mexico until the latter attempts to transmit the med iation proposals to him through Charge d Affaires O’Shaughnessy. It is believed the crisis then will he precipitated unless Huerta backs down completely from the attitude taken in His recent note. It is not believed he will.

LEVELAND THE SCENIC WAY WITH DINING CARS MEN AND RELIGION No. 73 CHILDREN OF GEORGIA “AND THEY ALL WITH ONE CONSENT BEGAN TO MAKE EXCUSE/’ Luke 14:18. They were at dinner. Jesus said: “When thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind, “And thou shalt be blessed.” One at the table pretended to be in sympathy. He began smugly: “Happy is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.” The hypocrisy of the man and all others like him was unmasked in the answer made by Jesus. He said: “A certain man made a great supper and bade many— “And they all with one consent began to make excuse.” One said one thing, another another. With one it was a field; with another it was new oxen. In the end, the Lord said: “None of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.” And from the highways and the hedges called He His guests. Are you a maker of hypocritcal phrases as was the man at the Phari see’s dinner table—pretending a love for that which is just and right? Or, to-day, are you trying to do the will, not of man or men, but of Him who died for you? Let us have done with excuses! x. . While spending thousands on fields, hogs and cattle, say not: “We are unable— ' “We can not give proper care to these girls— “These children must go down in shame because of our lack of money— “But our beasts we must protect whatever the cost.” If animals are more valuable than girls, let us say frankly: but you know that this is untrue. You know what Georgia would do. Consider, then! The Bill in the House providing a Reformatory for Girls is No. 4— ahead of any other measure appropriating money. The Penitentiary Committee has approved it. Unanimously the Appropriations Committee has recommended that it pass. Why, then, should beasts and fields be provided for by later bills and nothing done for Georgia’s wayward and delinquent girls?
