MAN FOUND DEAD AT PIEDMONT
Crackers Winners In Sluafest, 11-1
The body of a white man,
about 35 vears old, was found in
Piedmont Park late Tuesday aft
ernoon. He had been dead about
an hour. A hole in the side of
bis head had the appearance of
being a bullet wound.
A pistol was lying by the man’s
side The grewsome find was made
by a negro employed in the park. He
ran to the grocery store of W. L.
Sexton, on Piedmont avenue, and no
tified the police,
Detectives Wylie and Tuggle were
sent to the park., They were unable
to ldentify the man. His coat was
off and placed to his side, which in
dicated to them that it was a suicide
case., His hat also was lylng on the
ground.
While appearances were that the
n:an had shot himself, the detectives
did not give up entirely the theory
that the man might have been mur
dered in a quarrel and they made a
rigid investigation.
Some surprise was expressed that
a man could shoot himself at this
place, which is considerably traveled
in the daytime, and his body remain
undiscovered apparently more thap an
hour. ‘
(‘hief Beavers later went to the
park in company with Coroner Done

Drug Dose; Believed
Attempt at Suicid
About 4 o'clock Tuesday afternoon‘
Dr. B. M. Dunn, manager of Jacobs’
Pharmacy at the corner of Madison |
avenue and West Mitchell street, (el-i
ephoned to Grady Hospital and asked
that the ambulance be dispatched to
the store immediately. He said a
woman had taken an overdose of
chloroform and was in a serious con
dition,
Shortly afterward the woman,
whose name was withheld, was given
an antitdote and by the time the am
bulance arrived was quite able to go
on her way unassisted.
Though Dr. Dunn remained reticent
on the matter, it was believed by the
authoritias to have been a case of at
tempted suicide.

Speclal Cable to The Atlanta Georglan.
MEXICO CITY, April 28.-—General
Victoriano Huerta hase accepted the
proposal of Argentina, Brazil and
""hile to mediate the dispute between
the Mexican and United States gov
ernments, it was announced to-day
by Foreign Minister Portillo vy Rojas,
but France, England and Spain are to
art wlth the three South American
powers, the six selecting a seventh
nation as umpire
The acceptance of General Huerta
was announced after Sir Lione! Car
den, the British Minister, and other
European envoys had conferred with
the dictator. It is belleved that
Huerta thinks he may yet be able to
avoid compliance with President Wil
son’s demand for his elilmination from
Mex'can affairs through the {nfluence
of diplomacy.
For 48 hours pressure has been
brought upon Huerta to accede to the
proposition of* mediation, every ar
gument possible being urged.
The futility of opposing the vastly
superior armed forces of the United
States was Impressed upon Huerta,
and his close followers expressed the
belief that diplomacy would undoubt
edly prove the wiser course,
[ It is belfeved that Germany will be
‘the seventh power selected. Baron
Paul Von Hintz, the German Minis
ter, and Sir Lionel Carden were the
foremost flgures among the diplomat- |
fc members urging tiuerta to n\'(‘ept‘
mediation. |
The dictator wasg at first full ~f
fight, but finally consented, pledging
his word to the diplomats that he
would accept their advice and good
offices.
‘Mexicans Attack
Army Powder House.
. YALETA, TEXAS, April 28.--Armed
Mexicans attempted to capture a
Harge powder house north of Yaleta
}early to-day. Their approach was
‘seen by sentinels on duty there, who
{mmediately opened fire.
Captain Eltinge, of the Fifth Unit
ed State Cavalry, was immediately
notified and he sent his troopers to
the scene. The cavalrymen were fired
on from the brush as they approached
the powder house, but nene Wwas
wounded.
The Mexicans escaped in the dark
ness.
Troop A, Thirteenth Cavalry, has
been placed on guard at the maga
zine, and it will now be heavily pro
tected night and day.
Only Bryan Approves
Wilson’s Peace Move.
WASHINGTON, April 28.—While
official Washington was walting (o
day for the next step in the settle
ment of the troubles in Mexico, a
crisig developed much nearer home.
The split in the Cabinet, which had
ite origin last week in a difference of
opinion about the President’s leisure.
ly policy in the Mexican crisis, has
grown until the dissension in the
President’s official family is now
acute.
The blow at harmony that usually
prevails among the President's ad
visers came with the proposal for
mediation. With the exception of
Secretary of State Bryan, the Cabi
net to a man opposed the manner .n
which it was brought about. Post
master General Burleson, Secretary
of War Garrison and Secretary of the
Navy Danieis especially differed with |
the President and BSecretary Bryan,
and did not hesitate to gay so. |

TROOPS SENT TOGOLORADD
LEAVENWORTH, KAS., April
28.—Orders were received at Fort
Leavenworth this afternoon or
dering the Second Squadron,
Fifth Cavalry, to proceed at once
to Trinidad and Ludlow, Col, to
take charge of the strike district
and restore peace.
WASHINGTON, April 28.—After
conferences which lasted nearly all
day, President Wilson this afternoon
decided to send Government troops
into Colorado to handle the strike
situation at Trinidad. Secretary of
War Garrisont was instructed to order
¢ix companies of regulars from the
most avallable army posts to the seat
of the labor troubles. It is probable
that the troops will get under way
to-night from Fort Robinson, Ne
braska, and Fort Rlley, Kansas,
~ President Wilson was influenced by
the action of Governor Ammons of
Colorado in issuing a proclomation
declaring that a state of rebellion ex
isted in the coal fields. [Until this
reached Washington the indications
were that the President would take
no action, but there was no hesitation
after the dispatches came from Den
ver.
President Wilson later wired Gov
ernor Ammons of Colorado that he
had dispatched a portion of the mili
tary forces of the United States to
restore order in his State. The Prec
ident at the same time requested the
Governor to withdraw the Colorado
militia as soon as the United States
troops had reacho? Colorado. |
