Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO (TTY. Dec. 1.— General
Huerta disappeared after leaving
Chapuletpee Castles this morning for
the National Palace. No trace of him
could be found—in his usual haunts,
and this fact led to the circulation of
a report that he had left the city.
For several hours government offi
cials who had expected to confer with
him at the palace waited in vain, and
then dispersed to their respective
offices. The Cabinet ministers pro
fessed a» much surprise as the lesser
government attachees.
The first news that Huerta was
missing was followed by conflicting
rumors. One of these aaid that he
had not been at Chapultepec Castle
at all during the night, but had fled
from Mexico City secretly yesterday
on a train for Vera Cruz.
Train Blown Up.
A train on the Central Railway has
been blown up by Zapatista near San
Vicente. Thirty persons were killed
an 1 all those who escaped were shot
to death by the rebels.
Constitutionalist? now hold all of
Mexico as far south as the city of
Zacatecas. That city is still held by
the Federals, but its fall is imminent
as the rebels are working around to
cut off the railroad from the south.
While General Huerta intends to
cling to the Presidency as long as
possible, the Mexican Government is
taking no chances on forcing inter
vention in this country by the United
States.
Orders Legislators Released.
This was shown to-day when a
semi-official announcement was made
that acquittal Is likely to be ordered
for all of the members of Congress
who were recently arrested. Huerta
is afraid of finding these members
guilty of sedition and sentencing
them to death, which would result In
prompt action by the American Gov
ernment.
Foreigners in Mexico are deeply in
terested in the visit which Admiral
Craddock, of the British navy, was to
make to General Huerta this after
noon. He will be accompanied to
the national palace by Sir Lionel Car
den, the British Minister.

WAYCROSS, Dec.
cross was the worst place this side
of hell in certain respects was the
statement made by Dr. W. P. Price,
at the First Baptist Church last
night in one of the most sensational
sermons ever heard in Way cross.
He discussed the present political
campaign, and warned voters that if
a certain candidate was elected
Mayor. Waycross would be opened
up. He asked union men why they
wanted soft drinks on Sunday when
they favored an eight-hour day ana
rest on the Sabbath.
At a meeting for men only in the
city Y. M. C. A., Dr. Price, insinuat
ed that women members of church
choirs were leading lives they would
not have their husbands know about,
('ilizen.s are highly indignant over
the minister’s statements, and in
may be called upom to retract.
