An extended movement has been

Fighting in the Carpathians is be

ficulties The spell of favorable
weather mentioned in official dis
patches has given way to snow and
cold fogs, which render artillery op
erations extremely difficult. Despite
the natural handicaps, however, the
Russians are continually increasing
their pressure. The Russians have
the advantage of more troops than
the enemy, consequently the Austrian
soldiers are on the verge of complete
exhaustion from the constant fighting
i which has been carried on by day and

delatone paste to the hairy surface

by mixing some water with a little

J. M Giddens, of Columbus, State
president of the Travelers’ Protective
Association, was re-elected head of
the association Friday at the Anal
business session of the annual meet
ing held in the convention hall of the
Hotel Ansley. Mr. Giddens, who was
elected on the first ballot, was closely
contested by J. O. Harrison, of At
lanta, Post B. The count on the se
cret ballot was 55 for Giddens and 44
for Harrison.
Albert Ehrlich, of Savannah, State
j secretary and treasurer, also was re-
* lected
Th© Friday session opened with an
impressive memorial service conduct-
i ed by the Rev. 8. R. Belk. in honor of
the deceased members of the associa-
1 tion.
The visiting delegates during the
i afternoon will be given an automobile
i over the city and at night an in
formal reception will be held at the
Hotel \neley for the delegates and
their wives. The barbecue w-hich was
planned for Saturday morning at
Stone Mountain has been called off on
account of the necessity of a number
of the delegates returning to their
i homes Frlduy night.
Nearly 100 citizens of Fulton and
DeKalb Counties, including a number
of officials and church leaders, were
present In the Criminal Courtroom
Friday ready to testify to the
good character borne by 8. D. War
ren, Peters street merchant and for
twelve years Tax Receiver of DeKalb
County, who was placed on trial on
Thursday afternoon before Judge Ben
H. Hill on the charge of arson.
Warren, his brother, J. K. Warren,
and William Barge, a negro, are ac
cused of burning the furniture store
of 8. D. Warren & Co., in Peters
street last November. When the
State elected to sever the cases, S.
D. Warren was placed on trial first.
Among the character witnesses are
Murphey Candler, chairman of the
State Railn ad Commission; the pas
tor, deacons and members of the
church with which Warren is con
nected, and others who have been as*
soclated with him for years.
Cummings First Witness.
The introduction of testimony was
begun Friday forenoon by the State
by putting on the stand Fire Chief
Cummings and some of his men, who
were first to arrive at the store when
it caught fire. They testified that they
found excelsior and oil throughout the
second floor of the building.
Following the testimony as to the
physical condition of the building on
the night of the fire, the State began
its efforts to show that the motive for
the fire was the collection of insur
ance by the Warrens. Joseph J.
Wlndel, manager of the Southern In
surance Adjusting Company, was
placed on the stand to prove that the
Warrens had put in claims for $7,300
insurance for damage to their stock.
Barge, who will be the star witness
for the Stole, will go on the stand
Monday as the climax to the prose
cution to repeat his confession said to
have been made to detectives, impli
cating the Warrens. Chief of Detec
tives Newport Lanford Friday testi
fied to tlrtf circumstances attending
the making of the confession in his
office.
To Contest Every Point.
With the completion or the jury
Thursday the way was cleared for
one of the most spirited battles wit
nessed in the Criminal Court in a
long while. Congressman William
Schley Howard, who. with John W.
Moore, represents Warren, indicated
that every point in the case will be
hotly contested when he demurred to
the Indictments against the two War
rens, on the ground that the evidence
on which they were based was in
sufficient, and sought to have them
thrown out of court.
Congressman Howard submitted
numerous authorities to sustain his
contention, but Judge Hill directed
that the trial proceed, after which the
striking of the jury in the case of
8. D. Warren began.
Joyner Aids State.
Solicitor Dorsey and Assistant So
licitor E. A. Stephens were aided in
the drawing of the jury by State Fire
Marshal W. R. Joyner, who has taken
an active part in the investigation of
the circumstances incident to the fire.
The defense will contend that the
negro, Barge, alone was responsible
for the burning of the furniture store
and that he ‘ framed up” his confes
sion. implicating the Warren brothers
in an effort to save himself from the
penitentiary. The defense will make
a vigorous fight to break down the
negro’s story, especially that part re
lating to the alleged conspiracy by the
Warrens.

State convenition of the Alabama
Sunday School Association w'ill be held

which is in session here.
United States Senator Hoke Smith,
speaking at the final business session
of the annual State convention of
the Travelers* Protective Association
Friday, at the Hotel Ansley, paid a
warm tribute to the efficiency of the
Federal Reserve Bank system in es
tablishing a steady condition in the
monetary affairs of the nation in the
recent crisis, and declared that the
currency of the nation is now on a
sounder basis than ever before in the
history of the Government.
The Senator reiterated he favored,
as announced in The Georgian last
week, the placing of an embargo on
foodstuffs to Great Britain as a re
taliatory measure against the estab
lishment by that Government of a
contraband on cotton shipped abroad
in foreign bottoms to enemies of the
allied powers.
The Senator talked in detail of the
Federal war insurance bureau in the
Treasury Department and declared
that since its establishment the. in-
xurar< e rate on w ar risks from Amer
ican to European ports had been re
duced from 30 per cent to 3 per cent.
More than $1,000,000 in premiums
have been paid into the bureau, ac
cording to the Senator, since it was
organized, and though we have been
criticised for promoting the bureau,
he continued, it is Just its creation
that has caused the movement of cot
ton to Europe within the past three
months.
Sees Relief in South.
For the second time since his ar
rival in Atlanta, the Senator talked
of the great relief that is apparent in
the South, especially In Georgia, be
cause of the exportation of the
South’s main product to the European
belligerents.
"The United States has sent 6,760,-
000 bales of cotton to Europe since
the war began," he said, /“and this is
one of the great obstacles removed
for us in view of the approaching
crop, The surplus of the past year’s
crop is oift of the way, and there is
no doubt that the shipments of this
year's coming crop may exceed, even
if the war continues, those of the past
season.”
The Senator squared off when he
touched on the Federal reserve banks
and the powerful Influence which the
Government has brought to bear on
the national banks in supporting the
newly devised Government agency
and attacked those who he declared
w’ere against the establishment of the
reserve hanks in the critical period
which faced the United States at the
outbreak of the war.
“We went ahead and put through the
reserve bank system." he declared,
“and that it was for the good of the
people already has been shown in the
development of the system. The re-

serve banks we created to save the
people from possible financial panic,
and there was no politics in it. We
now have a gold balance of nearly
$300,000,000 in the Federal reserve
bank. We have this gold against
which we can issue $800,000,000 paper
under the reserve bank system.
Profits of System.
“The profits of the Federal reserve
banks are, of course, taken for the
benefit of the Government directly
from the national banks. We forced
them to enter into the reserve bank
chain; we forced their profits for the
reserve banks, and In turn these prof
its are turned back to the people. The
reserve bank system undoubtedly
helps the member banks and it is a
system of the greatest financial ben
efit to the whole" majority of the peo
ple that has ever been devised. It
saved the country in the recent crisis,
I know.
'The United States is fast removing
its financial debt with the European
powers, and now instead of our send
ing gold from the banking centers
abroad they are sending it to u«.”
President Wilson, his Cabinet, and
members of‘both branches of the na
tional assembly, the Senator declared,
have passed through one of the most
constructive sessions of Congress in
its history. The obstacles which so
handicapped the nation last August,
he continued, have been removed.
Touching on the ship purchase bill,
the Senator said he was very anxious
to see the passage of the bill author
izing the creation of a $40,000,000 cor
poration for the purchase of vessels
with which to transport the products
of the country to the nations abroad.
Voted for U. S. Commerce.
“It was to back up our international
commerce and I voted for it,” he said.
”1 voted in its favor because it was
for the benefit of the people and par
ticularly of the South and Georgia.”
Following the close of his speech,
Senator Smith was asked by Lee Wy
lie, of Savannah, former State presi
dent of the Travelers’ Protective As
sociation, to lend his Influence in
Washington for the repeal of the
bankrupt law. The Senator said that
the general feeling in the North and
East with reference to the measure
was that It should by all means be
allowed to remain on tb? statute
books at least during the strained
condition of the financial condition of
the country coincident to the war, so
as to permit those who have been
forced out of business a chance to
dispose of their assets and make a
fresh start.
The Senator was given a rising vote
of thanks by the convention at the
close of his address
