Efforts of Royalty to Suppress
Name of Gay Spanish Mon
arch Unavailing.
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON, Nov. 29.—Scandal af
fecting even members of royalty
doubtless will be aired In the im
pending; divorce suit of the Duke of
Westminster. The name of Kinr Al
fonso of Spain is linked with that of
the Duchess of Westminster in the
unsavory gossip that is going the
rounds of British noble society.
Pesperate efforts were made by
King George and Queen Mary to
avert the scandal, but they were un
availing. At first the crowned heads
of England turned all the powers of
their persuasion and diplomacy and
appeal toward effecting a reconcilia
tion between the Duke ana Duchess
of Westminister.
But the Duke was obdurate. Ho
■was determined upon his suit for a
divorce, and would not be swerved
from his purpose. Then the King and
Queen put up a fight at the last ditch.
They hoped they would be able to
stave off publicity. Here, again, thoy
were unsuccessful. The story, with a
thousand embellishments and imag
inary theories, is common talk. The
King of Spain the most prominent
figure in all the gossip.
The most prominent of the King's
counsel at the English court have
been retained by the Duke, and this
is regarded as certain evidence that
he will push his suit with vigor.
Gossip links the King of Spain and
the Duchess of Westminster together
in the story of certain incidents at the
last Cowes week, when King Alfonso
left suddenly after having made .tH
arrangements for a big social week.
The Duchess was at Cowes with a
party of friends.

Candidate for Police Office in
Macon Offers to Quit Race
for Cash.
MACON, Nov. 29.—Al J. Smith,
who withdrew his candidacy for the
office of Chief of Police a few hours
' before his election was scheduled to
| take place last Tuesday night, wrote
( the letter of withdrawal only because
! it was disclosed that he had offered
to “sell out” to the "whisky inter
ests” of Macon for $10,000. This fact
is made public to-day in a statement
signed by five men who have been
Smith's closest friends and support
ers, three of them being Aldermen.
Smith, an engineer of the Georgia
Southern and Florida Railroad and
a prominent church worker of Macon
and Valdosta, had been indorsed by
the Law Enforcement T^eague for the
office. He was assured of eight of the
twelve Aldermanic votes, and his elec
tion was conceded, although some
men opposed to the law and order
crusade exerted every effort to beat
him.
Alderman Traps Smith.
Five hours before Council was due
to meet Smith went to Alderman R
C. Hazlehurst, one of the four op
posing him and one of the two "ad
ministration” Aldermen in Council.
He proposed to Captain Hazlehurst to
decline the Chief’s office if the saloon-
men of the city would give him a sum
not less than $10,000. Hazlehurst
agreed to take the proposition under
advisement and to let Smith know at
7 o’clock Instead be sought out Al
dermen Pittman and Riley and com
municated the facts to them. The
three confronted Smith at 7 o’clock,
an hour before Council meeting, and
he finally admitted the facts. He then
signed the letter withdrawing his can
didacy.
Smith’s Friends Investigate.
Because reports contrary to th?se
facts had been circulated, seven
friends of Smith, including four Al
dermen, held an Investigation yester
day afternoon. Smith appeared before
them and again acknowledged the
facts.
"T don’t think it would be wrong to
take money for retiring from the
race.” be declared, “but, of course, I
would not have sold out to anybody
after taking the oath of office.”
Smith at first insisted that he was
only seeking to entrap Alderman Ha
zlehurst. whom he believed to repre
sent the "liquor interests.” In the
statement given to the public to-day
by Smith’s friends who conducted th-*
investigation Alderman Hazlehurst ’s
‘•heartily commended for rendering a
distinct public service.”
The affair has caused a genuine
sensation in Macon.

positively never equalled.

Board of Firemasters Expects to
Have Objection Overridden
by Council.
Unless Mayor Woodward recedes
from his position or the City Council j
overrides his veto, Atlanta may find
herself with a high-class fire alarm
system and no operators to man jl*
and consequently without fire protec
tion. The Mayor has refused to rec
ognize the obligation under which the
new plant was installed, and has held
up the salary checks of the six op
erators. On Monday he expects to
send to Council a veto of a resolution
authorizing the employment of ex
pert electricians to make an exami
nation of the system.
The test of strength between the
Mayor and Council will be made at
Council meeting Monday. The Board
of Firemasters has gone on the as
sumption that the Council will over
ride the Mayor and authorize the
payment of the operators and the
acceptance of the system.
An effort also will be made n
Council Monday to pass an ordinance
providing for salary raises for fire
men, policemen and school-teachers.
The scale in the ordinance is $75 a
month for firemen and policemen,
with a maximum of $90 for four-year
men. School-teachers under the new
ordinance are placed at $65 a month,
with a $90 maximum. The ordinance
is said to have the approval of the
Mayor in its present form.
