Gamboa Declares He Never Said
Mexican President Would
Not Be Candidate.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 6.—The
Mexican situation to-day focused n
the declaration of Senor Gamboa,
Mexican Minister of Foreign Af-
’airs, that President Huerta has
given no definite pledge not to be a
candidate at the October election.
* This has been expected by Washing-
* ton officials ever sinee President
Wilson indicated he believed Huerta
had given s^ch a niedge.
It makes clear to Washington of
ficials that Huerta is playing Latin-
Amerlcan characteristics with the
United States and they can not be
sure of the elimination of Huerta
from the situation while he has any
considerable following in Mexico.
The White House still maintains
silence regarding the coming of Sen^r
Zamacona to Washington as a confi
dential agent of President Huerta.
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 6.—Senor
t Gamboa, Minister of Foreign Affairs,
/In a statement last night, declared:
“I have never given an assurance
that President Huerta will not be a
candidate for re-election.
“Mexico's position toward the
United States has been defined ab
solutely in the last note from this
Government in the negotiations be
gun by Mr. Lind. Nothing can be
added to that note, which was a full
statement of Mexico’s attitude, and
this has not varied in the least since
K was written.”
Correspondents endeavored to ob
tain a statement from General Huer
ta and from Senor Urrutia, Minister
of the Interior, but both refused to
discuss the matter.

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 6.—Impeach
ment charges were to-day filed by
Deputy Calero against Dr. Urrutia,
Minister of Interior, and the fire
brand of the Huerta Cabinet. Dr.
Urrutia, who w responsible for the
recent announcement that Huerta
had sent an ultimatum to Washing
ton giving the Unit J States twelve
hours to recognize President Huerta,
is charged with causing the arrest of
Deputy Calero, whereas the Mexican
Constitution exerapts members cf
* Congress from arrest. Senor Cale: •>
was locked up on the charge that e
was plotting with the Zapatista reb
els, but later was released.
Foreign Minister Gamboa has Is
sued formal denial of published re
ports that Manuel Zamacopa y In
clan, who sailed Thursday for the
United States, is going to Washing
ton as a special envoy.
Rumor was current here that John
Lind, the Special Envoy from Presi
dent Wilson, may return to this city
to-morrow, but so far as could be
learned no steps have been taken to
reopen negotiations between Mr.
Lind and the Mexican Government.
Sympathizers of the late Francisco
I. Madero, who planned an anti-Gov-
ernment demonstration f. Septem
ber 16, have been warned by the
Government not to try to carry it

Former Mayor Robert F. Maddox
believes the committee of seven mem
bers of the American Bankers’ Asso
ciation succeeded in convincing the
United States Senate Committee on
Banking and Currency that changes
are advisable in the Owen-Glass cur
rency bill before it is made law.
Further, he thinks the signs are
that the bill will not be passed at. the
present session of Congress. Sen
ator Weeks, of Massachusetts, has
introduced a resolution asking for a
report of the Banking and Currency
Committee to be presented December
2. This will postpone final action un
til another session.

Washington Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. Each day’s session, he
says, was long, and he left the de
liberators still at work late Thursday
night, with prospects that they would
be “at it” until Saturday night.
Puts His Faith in Senate.
“We were particularly impressed,"
says Mr. Maddox, "with the courta-
ous and attentive hearing we were
given. The Senate seems intent upon
producing a currency and banking
system which shall be the best pos
sible for the country. It seems to
feel that our assurances of frankness
and patriotism were sincere, and to
be ready to give weight to our sug
gestions. 1 believe when the Senate
is through with the currency bill it
will be a good law.
“The bankers from all over the
United States who made up the com
mittee seemed unanimous in their
opinion that business conditions in
the United States are sound, and that
there will be no further stringency of
money this fall. They do not think,
however, that any material reduction
in interest rates will be seen because
of the heavy demand for money.
“Since there is no emergency at
hand and because the subject is of
such vital importance, I believe Con
gress should not pass the measure
hastily, but should give the fullest
study to. the subject, and hear not
only the bankers, but also the busi
ness men of the country.”
Assigned Savings Clause.
Each banker was assigned certain
features of the currency bill to dis
cuss. Mr. Maddox was assigned the
savings deposits clause, and the por
tion which virtually inhibits country
banks from charging exchange on
checks.
The Senate now seems inclined to
kill the latter and the House the for
mer, Mr. Maddox says.
A charge for the collection of
checks, small on each but large in
the aggregate, is an important item
in the earnings of 4,700 small na
tional banks, 63 per cent of the total
number of 7,392. Mr. Maddox argued
to show the unfairness of eliminat
ing this source of revenue, and to
show that many banks would not
join the new regional banks if this
feature remained.
Segregation of savings deposits and
restrictions forcing investment of
these funds in long-term mortgages
and bonds would result, Mr. Maddox
argued, in withdrawing $750,000,000
from the channels of local trade ana
commerce. Under the present sys
tem the money the workingman saves
is loaned back to his employer, thus
enabling the employer to continue his
business, possibly to enlarge it and
employ more labor.
To upset this system, h« believes,
would disturb conditions seriously
and result In higher rates of interest.
Sol Wexler. of the Whitney Cen
tral Bank, New Orleans, was tho
only other Southern member at the
hearings.

A 3-week-old infant, laughing and

that met the eyes of James H. Mc-
Nesser, a real estate agent, when he
went home at 10 o'clock one night
about a week ago. That spectacle was
“Joy.”
His story, told by The Georgian at
the time, attracted the notice of Mrs.
G. S. Graham, of Fitzgerald.
“I am very anxious to adopt the
baby,” she wrles. “We have no chil
dren, and your story of this little one
appeals to us very much.”

riot that nearly ended in the forfeiting
of the game to Atlanta occurred as the
Atlanta club starter] Its half of the sec

second. Flick dropped the throw from
the plate and Jumped up from the
ground, claiming that Nixon punposel;
knocked the ball from his hand. Elber
feld, who was warming up Coveleskle
on the side lines, rushed onto the dia
mond and began to kick. Umpire Rud-
derham listened to him for a few sec
onds and then waved him off the field.
Elberfeld went back and began playing
catch with the Pole again. %
Pfennlnger stoped the game and
again ordered him to leave the diamond.
Elberfeld pai<j no attention to the com
mand and Rudderham ordered two po
licemen, who were standing nearby, to
take Elberfeld from the grounds. Of
ficer West took Elberfeld by one arm
and another policeman took him by the
other arm. Elberfeld struggled and
West collaret him and then, letting go,
