RICH MEXICAN BLAMES NEW YORK BANKERS FOR HUERTA’S TROUBLES BARTOLO RODRIGUEZ AND IIIS SONS, BARTOLO, JR., RAFAEL, JAMES. Children- Cry For Mr®. Edith Rnrlow, a Ma^k-haired, pleasrmt-featured woman, agrntn bnde defiance Friday to her former hus band. J E. Barlow, and all hi* wealth. Standing In the hallway of her home at No, 219 West Peachtree stree t, she challenged him with all his reputed millions to get possession of their pretty little 8-year-old daughter. Madeline Madeline, around whom the legal battle 1s centering, stood by her moth er's side, drinking in every word that was «ald and wondering why so much fuss and ado should be m^de about her when she liked both her father and her mother. Mrs Barlow was told that her former husband was In the city and had sworn to get the child if it took every cent of his money. “Well, I intend tluit he shall not have her if it takes every cent of mine,” and her face lighted with a smile of assurance as if she were a bit amused that Barlow had any idea that he might regain the child. Child Criticises His Picture. “Oo-oo, look at that big picture of papa!" exclaimed the little maiden at her mother's side, breaking into the conversation for the first time when a paper was displayed containing the interview with Barlow Then she pro ceeded to offer her criticisms of Its artistic merits in true grown-up fash ion. "She would rather stay with me and live on a crust of bread and a glass of milk than to live with her father with all his luxuries.” said Mrs. Barlow, referring to her former hus band's statement that he was in bet ter position to care for the child than she. “But T guess she won’t starve," she added, her smile returning. will be able to give her all the advantages that she would receive at the hands of her father. That talk about his being a millionaire is all rot, anyway. 1 doubt If he could raise $25,000 to-day If he wanted to." Mentions Amount Sued For. A coincidence is that $25,000 is ex actly the alimony for which Mrs. Bar- low is suing the man who divorced her. "I have every right to the child," she continued. "The Ordinary of Stewart County has decided that Madeline should stay with me. and 1 guess that settles it. Mr. Barlow vi olated his agreement under the terms of the divorce which awarded the child to him when he refused to let her come to see me. "The court’s ruling was that Made line should be allowed to visit me at reasonable intervals. Mr. Barlow never complied with this ruling. There were fifteen months that I never saw my lit fie girl I wrote him as cour teous letter as anyone could write asking him to let Madeline come to me. and it did no good. "Then I heard that Madeline and the third Mrs. Barlow had come back from Cuba and were In Bumpkin, and 1 went down there. I got Madeline and I’ve got her yet, and I’m going t 3 keep her. Determined to Keep Her. “Mr Barlow was In contempt of court when he refused to let me see the child, and he has forfeited his rights to her now," Mr. Barlow, who came to Atlan A Thursday for a conference with his attorneys. Burton Smith and Arthur G. Powell, will leave for New York Friday afterno n. He has an ap pointment there September 15 with a group of financiers whom he wishes to interest in a Cuban railroad proj ect. After th t he will return to Georgia to fight for possession of tne child. Mrs. Barlow'’s action, which asks for permanent possession of Made line. $i5,0 0 alimony for the little girl’s support and an annulment of Barlow’s present marriage on the ground that he obtained his divorce illegally, will be heard before Judge Littlejohn In Aniericus Septe.mber 27.

HOAR LIKELY TO BE Says His Countrymen Consider Wilson Crazy Here to Put Sons in Military College. Rumor That He Will Get New Superior Court Judgeship Gains Ground. That .Judge L S. Roan would bo ap pointed to the new Superior Court Judgeship created by the last Legis lature within the next 80 days was the information Friday. Although no interview# In regard to the appointment have been given out by Governor Slaton, and various ru mors as to probable appointees have gone the rounds, the rumor concern ing the appointment of Judge Roan Is said to hit the mark squarely. Those who are In close touch with the situation point out that the Gov ernor has decided definitely to ap point Judge Roan, but that he has de ferred action until the latter has com pleted his work in the Leo Frunk case on or about October 4. when the mo tion for a new’ trial will be heard. Should Judge Roan receive the ap pointment, which seems certain, Charles S. Reed, Solicitor of the Stone Mountain Circuit, probably will be named as his successor a# Judge of t,he Stone Mountain Circuit. Mr Reed has been Solicitor for several yenr.s, and is regarded as an able lawyer. His home is in Palmetto, Campbell County.

Sept 12.- As the re- | suit of tiekling a mule with a straw. ; Haul l^or. arc had his face disfigured I for life. Charging that the bankers of New York City are behind the present trouble in Mexico, and that the Mex ican people consider President Wood- row Wilson of the United States "as crazy a man as Francisco I. Madero," and a tool in the hands of the great American financial interests, Bartolo Dodriguez, a wealthy landowner and ranchman of Tampico, Vera Cruz, Mexico, who is in Atlanta to put his three sons in the Georgia Military Academy, told an interesting story Friday morning of conditions in the southern republic. Mr. Rodriguez declared emphati cally that reports emanating from Mexico are garbled and distorted. He declares that, with the exception of roving bands of Constitutionalists and followers of Zapata. Mexico is quiet. "If it had not been for the bankers and financial interests of New’ York City," Mr. Rodriguez said, "the trou ble in Mexico would have been over long ago. Caused Sending of Lind. "It is these same big bankers, de sirous of controlling the country and grabbing all the vast resources of the republic, who have caused the trou ble. "It was they who caused the send ing of the special envoy, John Lind, to Mexico City to bulldoze President Huerta; it was they who caused the garbled and distorted reports of con ditions in my country to be spread throughout the United States; it was they who tried to induce your Presi dent to send the American army into my country; and they were behind the proclamation issued by President Wilson asking Americans to leave the country. "Their reasons for trying to stir up a war between the United States and Mexico can be plainly seen by any one who will take the trouble to look. Mexico is one of the richest countries on earth in natural resources that need only development. Thousands of Americans have invested their cap ital in my country, and are making fortunes. Seek to Regain Control. “The control of many of the great industries slipped from the hands of the financial interests of New York, and they started the trouble to frighten Americans into selling out their holdings and leaving Mexican industries in their control and to prevent any more Americans from going into the country. “You ask me what the people of Mexico think of your President, Woodrow’ Wilson If 1 am placed in Jail for uttering it I must speak the truth, Jftrancisco I. Madero was de throned- as President of Mexico be cause the people of Mexico did not want him. They regarded him as an irresponsible man. a crazy man in the control of the American financial interests. “The people of Mexico regard your President Wilson as a man as crazy as Francisco Madero oyer was. They regard him as a tool—an unwilling tool, perhaps, and an unknowing tool, but a tool, nevertheless—in the hands of the New York banking interests. "There is not now and there never has been, any necessity for American interference in Mexico. There is not a ‘situation’ to cope with. Mexico is as orderly as the United States. “It is true there was rebellion when Porfliio Diaz was ejected from the country, and when the insane Madero was dethroned by General Huerta. “But now the Huerta government is established; it has control of the great public utilities; the railroads are running all over the republic and all of the' States are under the con trol of the Government. "It is true that there are roving bands of highwaymen and robbers, called Constitutionalists and Zapa- tists. Bui does not your United States have robbers and highwaymen? The Constitutionalists and the Zapatlsts, for all their high-sounding names, oc cupy the sami' plane 1n Mexico that your bands of burglars and thieves occupy in the United States. "President Huerta is one of the most maligned men In the w’orld. He has been lied about In America be cause he will not bow down to the New York bankers and let them con trol our country. Think Wilson Is Tool. “The Mexican people consider Pres ident Huerta somewhat In the light thgt Americans consider George Washington. He rescued the republic from almost certain ruin. He has been handicapped by your President Wilson and your Mr. Lind but ev>n with their interference he has done wonders for Mexico. “American newspapers have print ed much about the demands of your President Wilson and your Mr. Lind that President Huerta shall not be a candidate in the coming election*. The Mexican people know, and have al ways known, that he has never in tended to be a candidate “There is only one man in Mexico who has the approval of all factions and who can be elected President. That man is Felix Diaz. “Americans who live in Mexico did not approve of the orders of President Wilson that they leave the republic. They laughed at him. There was never any reason why they should leave Mexico. Americans are in no more danger In my country than thev would be in their own, and in most cases are in less danger. Mexican Killed in U. S. “It ts perhaps true that Americans have been killed in Mexico. Does anyone expect thousands of them to live In a country and never get in trouble, when they are of all classes 7 Are not Mexicans killed in the United States? “In my own city of Tampico, a city of 80,000 population, where there are 10,000 Americans in business, repre sentative members of the American colony went to the United States Con sul and told him they did not ap prove of President Wilson’s action in attempting to interfere with Mexi can affairs. “Not an American of the better class left Tampico during the trouble, and but very few Americans left the yntlre republic. The only Americans who left Mexico and who took ad vantage of the American offer of free transportation were the bums and the loafers, who seized the chance to get back home for nothing "To start a war with Mexico would be the worst thing the United Stales could do. It would embarrass thou sands of Americans who are living happily and making money in mj r country. Friendly to U. 8. "No nation is more friendly toward the United States than is Mexico, and I do not think there will ever be aiw necessity for America to send :fn army across the border.” Besides his three sons, Bartolo, Jr., Rafael and James, Mr. Rodriguez was accompanied to Atlanta by An tonio Chirinos and his two sons. Se- varo and Porflrio, also of Tampico, who will also enter the Georgia Mil itary Academy. His own action in sending his boys to America to be educated and the fact that the majority of the wealthy citizens of Mexico send their sons to this country instead of to Europe. Mr Rodriguez declares, is proof that the better class of Mexicans entertain nothing but friendly feeling for Amer ica. Tampico, where Mr. Rodriguez has extensive business interests, and near which is located his large cattle ranch, is one of the largest cities In Mex ico. It is located on the Gulf, in the State of Vera Cruz, and Is one of the greatest oil-producing points in the world. Mr. Rodriguez says $800,000,000 is Invested by 62 companies in oil w’ells and equipment, most of which is con trolled by Americans. The wells yield on an average 110,000 barrels of crude petroleum a day. Severe Cough Led To Lung Trouble Sufferers with I.un* Trouble are rarely will ing to acknowledge the fact.
