/ TTTE ATT-A XT A GE0R0TAN ANT) NEWS. WILSON: GETS President's Demand for Currency Act Means Republicans Will Delay Vote on Tariff. WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.—Senators came to the Capitol to-day prepared to remain on the job until November, following: the indorsement by the Democratic caucu? last night of Pres ident Wilson's demand for curren^v legislation at this session of Con gress. Republican Senators have publicly refused to agree to a date on whicn to vote on the tariff bill. The sole condition on which they have agreed heretofore, in cloakroom talk, to vote on the tariff bill before September 1 has been that the specter of currency legislation be driven away. But the Senate majority has knuck led down to Presf ent Wilson on this question, and the Republicans will be able to dictate the speed wl-h which legislation will be handled. Progressive Republicans will have an inning, urging tha adoption of the inheritance tax and tariff commis sion amendments to the tariff bill. The discussion of these wi n require i week or more. Extended discussion of the income tax section is promised also. The informal agreement to go ahead with currency legislation means, it is predicted, that the tariff bill will not be disposed of b< 'ore October 1. Cur rency legislation will require, accord ing to Senate prophets, at least a month after. $344,424,453 SPENT ON VICES IN THE UNITED STATES LAST YEAR Huerta's Reported Attempt to Raise Funds Stirs Protest. U. S. Capital Affected. i ROAN LEADS ALL Even in Atlanta Sentiment Turns Toward Jurist of the Stone Mountain Circuit. This Big Sum Went for Liquor, Tobacco and Cards, Says Government Report, SLEIAI FRIEND TO Doctor Gives Hope To Childless Women Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian. LONDON, Aug. 15. — Hope for childless women was held out in a remarkable statement by Dr. Vero- noff. of Nice, before the International Medical Congress. He said that in his experiments of transplanting vital organs of one animal to another he had enable a barren ewe to give birth to a lamb. / “I hold,” he asserted, "that my ex periments can be applied to human beings—indeed, it’s easier to graft certain parts with human beings than with animals. The only thing nec essary Is affinity of the blood of the two persons of the same race—or better still, of one family. Cleanest Faced Boy Falls From Grace GARY, 1ND., Aug 16.—“Andy” Hat rack, the 13-year-old Italian boy why won the red necktie and world-wide fame in the clean-face contest in th*s Gary schools, has fallen from' grace. Neither “Andy’s” former shining fa*.*- nor his bright necktie would be rec ognized since school let out for the summer vacation and Miss Laura Knaggs. his teacher, left Gary. He has played all summer with other Italian boys, and his face and necktie resemble theirs. Notwithstanding the tact that sev eral members- of the Atlanta bar have committed themselves to “an Atlanta lawyer,” unnamed, for the newly created Atlanta Superior Court Judgeship, and that this movement is considered generally to be directed against Judge L. S. Roan as the prob able appointee, the impression pre vails that Governor Slaton unques tionably will name Judge Roan for the place. Judge Roan, although nominally the judge of the Stone Mountain Circuit, has presided for several years as judge of the criminal division of the Atlanta Circuit, and has given very great satisfaction. Inasmuch as the new judgeship is to be a criminal judgeship, many members of the At lanta bar think Judge Roan is the logical man for the honor, and the> are backing him according y. During his service as judge of the criminal division in Atlanta, he has tried many noted criminal cases—the Grace and the Appelbaum cases being two of the most noted—and his rep utation for fairness and justice is well established. Already a large number of Atlanta attorneys have indorsed J ldge Roan to Governor Slaton, and It is thought more than likely that his appointment will be announced within a few days. Uncle Sam collected $344,424,453 from vice during the year which end ed June 30, according to figures Just made public'.

CHAMPAIGN, ILL., Aug, 15.—After his first night's sleep since last Fri day Gust Penman, son of a wealthy farmer, to-day told the Champaign County jail officials that he was ready to make a sworn confession of the murder of his chum, Harold A. Shaw. Penman was brought here last night from Danville, where he was caught by Amos Milholland, 80, a veteran of the Civil War and the Indian cam paign in the West, who is a mail car rier and justice of the peace at Ridge Farm, near Danville. After a weak denial of his identity the young man, a nervous wreck, flayed by conscience, starved to the point of collapse and in high fever from exposure and fatigue, broke down and made a most extraordinary confession of his crime. He killed his friend in a drunken delirium to get Shaw’s automobile, he said. Penman told how after he eluded the vigilantes who swarmed the countryside and had virtually made good his escape from the environs of the killing, his conscience would not let him carry out, his plans to evade justice in a flight to South America.

ENG., Aug 15 —A monument to the memory of the Pilgrim fathers, who settled in New England, was unveiled here to-day by United States Ambassador Page. A number of Americans were present. MEXICO CITY, Aug. 15.—Bitter protests were made here to-day by prominent Mexicans following pub lic allegations that President Huerta is attempting to place the vast rail way resources of Mexico virtually in pawn to raise funds for the Govern ment. Agents said to represent Huerta nave approached foreign finan cial groups for loans, the collateral of which will be blanket mortgages on Government railway lines. That the present disagreeable rela tions between Mexico and the United States would be heightened by such action is apparent, as Americans have heavy financial holdings in railways and other Mexican securities which would be bound to be affected by the mortgaging of railway properties. Gets Rid of Popular Men. There is a feeling that if the peace misison of Special Envoy John Lind fails the present condition of affairs will be stretched out indefinitely President Huerta has begun to pre pare for the October election by tak ing steps to secure his own re-elec tion. He is sending the strong, popu lar men out of the country. fienor de la Barra, who has the confidence of the people, is now In New York en route for France, where he will act as the Mexican Ambassa dor; Colonel Felix Diaz, whose name carries magic power and who has a big following, is en route to Japan, and can not possibly return here be fore the election if it is held on sched uled time. Future Full of Menace. As fast as one section of the coun try is pacified Huerta fills it with sol diers to control the election machin ery. All the President’s appointees are army men. It is believed here that so long as Huerta is in the chair the United States will not recognize this Government. Thus the end is probably far off and filled with men- 'e. A Mexican newspaper printed the tumor that Henry Lane Wilson, for mer United States Ambassador to Mexico, will probably return here and engage in business. Wilson Will Reply to Censure by President. WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.—“I do not know what the next step will be. I do not expect to take any action to day, hut I shall make an answer to the President’s censure at the proper time.” This was the statement made to day by Henry Lane \Vi\son, Ambas sador to Mexico on leave. Reports are current that Ambassa dor Wilson will not submit tamely to the rebuke administered to him last night by the President; that he con fidently expected to be dismissed when he issued his statement, and that he welcomed the opportunity to sever his connection with the diplo matic Service, so that he could air his views regarding Mexico. Millions Hinge on Kodak Case Verdict BUFFALO. N. Y.. Aug. 15.—Mil lions of cTollars may hinge upon the decision of Judge John R. Hazel here, in which he finds the Eastman Kodak Company guilty of having infringed upon eleven out of the twelve claims of the Goodwin Film and Came p .i Company on a process for manufac turing transparent, flexible photo graphic film pellicles and declares the complainant is “entitled to an av counting."
