Sept. 1.—An old treaty, which has lain in disuse for 65 years, probably will be Invoked by the Mexican Government in the pres ent controversy between President Huerta and the United States. The covenant, known as the Gtm- dalupe-Hldalgo treaty of 1848, pro vides that, in the event of disagree ment between the contracting parties, ommissioners should be appointed to arbitrate. Mexico will make such a iemfind, it wn* learned from an au thoritative source to-day. This is the first occasion for re- eourse to the treaty, and through the obscurity surrounding the instrument officials in the State Department for- rot, if they ever knew, that such a treaty existed.

McREYNOLI>S Total .14.1*7,000 United States Attorney General Says He Advised Corporation How to Evade Law. NEW YORK, Sect. 1.—Following the revelation that United States At torney General McReynolds had been counsel to the National Fuel Gas Company, a Standard Oil concern, in a scheme to circumvent the “seven sisters” act of the Sherman anti trust law, the New York Press to-day prints the following Washington, Aug. 31.—That James C. McReynolds soon will resign as Attorney General of the United States was a positive statement made to-day to the correspondent of fhe Press by a Senator to whom McReynolds ex pressed this intention. Although he feels he has been subjected to unjust, criticism, said McReynolds to this Senator, he also believes his presence in the Cabinet is a handicap to Presi dent Wilson’s administration and he intends to retire from his of fice. “It Is too much for me,” said McReynolds to his visitor, “and I feel that I must retire.” Says He Ha* Been “Goat.” As he further explained his po sition he has been worried by criticism of his conduct of the Union Pacific-Southern Pacific dissolution case, of the Diggs- Caminetti case, of several of his recommendations for appoint ments and for his advocacy of certain pardons, to say nothing of minor affairs. He maintained he has been right in every Instance and he resents being made the “goat” of the administration. Attorney General McReynolds stands revealed as counsel for the Standard OH. He admits that while employed by the Government to break the iniquitous Anthracite Coal Trust, and while under consideration for the high of fice he now holds, he advised the Na tional Fuel Gas Company how to cir cumvent the “Seven Sisters” Anti- Trust law. This company is a $16,- 000,00 subsidiary of 26 Broadway. More amazing still, the very law that Mr. McReynolds was asked to circumvent is one formulated by his present chief, President Wilson, then Governor of New Jersey. Its express purpose is to crush just such monop olies as the National Fuel Gas Com pany. In the company John D. Rockefeller Is chief stockholder. He owns 11,000 shares. William Rockefeller holds 3,196 shares; John D. Archbold, 1,275 shares. Rogers Once at Head. At one time its president was H. H. Rogers. Walter Jennings, a di rector in many Standard Oil subsid iaries, is now president. President Wilson has publicly stat ed that he would be glad to see a Fed eral statute similar to the “Seven Sisters” act take the place of the Sherman law. From the beginning of its career, in 1902, the National Gas Fuel Com pany went into the business of gob bling up gas companies in northern and eastern Pennsylvania and in northern New York State. Independent oil men, such as Pierce, of the Waters-Pierce Company, de clare It has assumed such formidable proportions as to completely control business in its territory. In fact, it had created such a mo nopoly that it feared to face the “Seven Sisters.” Then Mr. McRey nolds was called into consultation. When seen in Washington Mr. Mc Reynolds said: “I do not recall going to the Stand ard Oil Building, at 26 Broadway, during the latter part of the winter to confer with the officers of the com pany, of which Mr. Walter Jennings •Is president. “It probably was the National Fuel Gas Company. They wanted to know what they could do and what they could not do under the ‘Seven Sisters’ law. Calls it “Muck-Raking.” “I am not sure whether the seven bills which constitute this law had been enacted or whether they were still before the Legislature. It Is smf- flclent to say the legislation had. in the opinion of the officer* of the com pany, made it necessary to seek legal advice as to future operation. “1 was a practicing attorney at the time ana did not see any wrong in giving legal advice where it was asked. Just about this time I had been employed by the Government In the anthracite coal suits, but that had no possible connection with the ques tion* presented to nm or the New Jersey law. “I consider this only another effort at muck-raking. For the life of me I can not see how I can be criticised." “Will you give any of the detail* of the advice tendered Mr. Jennings and his associates?” was asked. “Further than that it related, as I recall, to th© transfer of certain stock. It would be unprofessional for me to talk about what took place at the con ference,” replied th© Attorney General. ”Dc you recall who asked you to confer with the officers of the com pany?” “I do not remember.” The conference did take place in the Standard Oil Building at No. 26 Broadway?” “Yea.” Annual Holiday Observed Quietly Without Parade—Hundreds Visit Parks and Picnics. Labor Day is being celebrated in Atlanta by a complete surcease from labor by the men who earn their bread by the toil of their hands— as well as a host of others. It is a holiday, but quite different from many Labor Days of Atlanta’s history. No parade has served r o draw huge crowds to the principal streets; no demonstrations of any kind were planned. But labor Is en joying itself. Scores of picnics are being held, while ball games, theaters and amusement parks draw enormous crowds. For the first time in fifteen years Jerome Jones, Southern organizer for the American Federation of Labor, editor of The Journal of Labor and president of the Southern Labor Con gress, is not scheduled for a Labor Day address, and Instead of partici pating in any labor demonstration he Is resting quietly at home. He has been ill for some time. Thousands of other members of unions are also making a quiet home day of it. Many Picnics in Parks. With the approach of fall but a few weeks away, many of the workers took advantage of the holiday to give their last picnic of the season. Be fore 10 o’clock Grant Park was alive with a dozen picnic crowds, and each car was bringing more. Piedmont Park, Lakewood, White City and the other amusement places have bee 1 thronged with crowds a 11 day. The morning game at Ponce De Leon attracted a great crowd, while the afternoon game is expected to prove the record-breaker of the Southern League. The determination to show Birmingham up In baseball attendance has caused thousands *o plan attending this game. Suffragists in Parade. NEW YORK, Sept. 1.—Prosperity of working people caused the Labor Day parade to number less men and wom en in its line than last year. Of the 25,000 persons in line nearly 5,000 were women. As practically all the women are suffragists, they took advantage of the occasion to advertise the “cause.” They carried banners with such inscriptions as the following: “Equal work, equal pay, equal say and votes for women.” Three thousand members of the Women’s Trades Union marched in white dresses and straw hats. “Holy Day,” Says Gompers. WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.—Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, to-day issuad a Labor Day proclamation, in which he characterized the national holiday as “a holy day,’’ consecrated to the cause of labor.

USE OF CALOMEL PRACTICALLY STOPPED i Dangerous Drug Giving Way for Safer, More Reliable Remedy. 1 Hundreds of people In this vi- ( cinity alone have stopped the use of dangerous calomel when their liver is acting slowly, and take Dodson’s Liver Tone instead. Dodson's Liver Tone is always safe and has none of the bad aft er-effects which so often follow the use of calomel. It is a pleasant- tasting vegetable liquid that start* the liver gently and surely, and relieves constipation and bilious ness and causes no restriction of habit or diet. Many preparations have sprung up that imitate the claims made for Dodson's Liver Tone, but re- | member Dodson’s Liver Tone is the tried and tested remedy that has proven such a good medicine and is so satisfactory to every user—is the reason these imita- > tions are on the market. Dodson's Liver Tone can not / hurt anyone, and if it fails to do j all that is claimed of it, all drug- j gists who sell it will give your s money back with a smile. 'Mercer’s Trip Taken As Dismissal Omen The mysterious departure . for Washington Monday morning of Fish and Game Commissioner Mercer was said to be a further indication that Mr. Mercer eventually will be dis placed by a new appointee by Gov ernor Slaton. Mr. Mercer Is a warm personal friend of Hoke Smith and those who are keeping In close touch with the affair say he may have gone to Wash ington to get a plum at the hands of the Georgia Senator.

Jailyard Insanitary; All Prisoners Moved Continued from Page 1. Police Commission and the controlling spirit in the body, is for it, though it hazards a continuation of his undis puted sway. Mayor James G. Woodward has been bitterly opposed to it, but the fact that its passage would give him and his .supporters an opportunity to i get control of the police department, a department in which they have been, an insignificant minority, is said to be working a reversal of attitude. Aids Chance for Passage. These two conditions, the fact that Council wants the charter to pass 'o stave off radical charter reforms and the fact that the Woodward element may support It in an effort to get con trol of the police department, greatly strengthen the chances of the char ter to pass. A vigorous opposition to it by the Men and Religion Forward Movement is expected* The present Board of Health, the Park Board, the Smoke Board and the Cemetery Commission are abol ished by the charter and their author ity transferred to new commissions. But little significance is attached to these changes. In the councilmanic races the old crowd will endeavor to get men fa vorable to them elected. If the new charter passes, practically all of the present membership of the Police Commission will ask for re-election. It’s a fight, more or less, of the “outs” against the “ins.” Real Test in Elections. After all, the real test will come in the election of the five aldermen and ten councilmen, for should the char ter pass the new Council will decide who shall compose the Board of Pub lic Safety. The require merits for election to this board will be the at titude of the Chief of Police. The list of candidates so far is: C. B. Alverton, for First Ward councilman; C. D. Knight, Second Ward councilman; C. H. Kelley, Sec ond Ward alderman; James E. War ren and J. C. Harrison, Third Ward alderman; Orville Hall, Third Ward councilman; R. E. George and A. W.

Declaring that they had the proof showing Dr. W. J. McNaughton, the Emanuel County physician under ^ sentence of death for the killing of Fred Flanders, to be an innocent man without the shadow of a doubt. Judge F. H. Saffold, of Savannah, and Colonel John W. Bennett, Waycross, attorneys for the defends ant, Monday afternoon prepared to wage a hot fight before the Prison Commission for the life of their client. The hearing of the case began at 3 o’clock. Shortly after the commission con vened Colonel Bennett and Judge Saf fold presented a lengthy brief, which was explained in detail, containing tti series of hypothetical question Aft* swered by a board of Savannah’s BK)£ prominent physicians, which, it li claimed, establish the fact that Fl®^» ders could not have met his death by arsenic poisoning. Colonel Bennett presented further evidence in which he claimed that the examination of the stomach of Flanders for traces of arsenic wan made by parties who were not ex perts in any sense of the word. Before the hearing both attorney* declared they were confident that Dr. McNaughton would be pardoned by the prison board. Following the hearing of the evi dence, which mav extend throughout Tuesday, the Prison Commission will reach a decision, which will be re ported direct to the Governor before it is given out for publication. Among other cases which are being considered by the board are the Mangham case of Griffin, in which efforts are being made to obtain a. pardon for J. J. Mangham, cotton mill man, who is serving a four-year term in the penitentiary.
