NOT DESPERATE,
BUT IN CRISIS
—— 3
By ANDRE BEAUMONT.
(Eaclusive War Dispatches to The
Atlanta Georgian and Lon
don Daily Telegraph.)
MILAN, Sept. 15.—The Secolo dis-
Ql:uam the German conference as fol
ows:
“Despite the discontent among the
old Turks, Enver Pasha is the undise
puted dictator and enjoys the con
fidence of the Turkish army. The ob-
Ject of the conference is the solution
of the grave Balkan problems. The
situation of the Germanic League is
critical, not desperate.
“An offensive on the interior lines is
no longer nossible. The defensive
power is declining because of want of
reserves. The check of the Dobrudia
invasion by the Russian and Rouma
nian forces may end in disaster.
“Bulgaria desired to continue for
the last nine months the sham offen
sive in Macedonia only to prevent
Roumanian intervention. She is now
threatened on a new front and de
mands German help The Bulgarian
army, which at the beginning of the
war numbered half a million, is now
only 400,000 strong.
“The forces of General Sarrall at
Saloniki, the Roumanians along the |
Danube and the Russians in the Do- |
brudja are in a crushing surwrmrny.’
The 50,000 Germans supposed to be in
the Dobrudja will hardly suffice. The
Turks have in Thrace about 200,000
men, King Ferdinand wants half a
million Turks to oppose the Russian
and Roumanian forces in the Do
brudja, =o that the Bulgarians are
free to defend Macedonia. The Turks
have hitherto refused to use their
army in Thrace, alleging that it might
be needed at any time for the defense
of Constantinople.
“The Turks would consent if the
Bulgars offered compensation. which
Bulgaria, however, is unwilling to
give., Hence the conferences,
“A further complication is presented
by the urgent solicitations of the Mag
yara for assistance in Transylvania.
Between the three clalmants, Ger
many has her hands full, and a dect
#ion is not yet apparent.

MACON., Sepnt f.—~Wounded in the
head and right lung, M. J. Carswell,
an attorney of Jeffersonville, lies
| near death in the Macon hospital,|
having been shot by Will F. Shannon, |
a cotton warehouseman of that place, |
i Thursday afternoon. Shannon was|
| brought to this city for safe-keeping |
| immediately after the shooting. A\'
’ LI irose hetwee the two men
lover the Hughes-Larsen anfi'rfls&'iulw-;
Carswell was weak from the loss ufl
lood when he reached this city, blt |
till in a conscious condition. An hw»!
lorn'inn was performed immediately,
which probably has saved his life.
Two shots were fired and both took
effect. One punctured the right lung
and the other entered the mouth and
passed cut at the hase of the brain.
He was acconlpanied here 'by
George 1. Carswell, of Irwinton, Sen
ator from Wilkinson County, and by
two cousins, J. A. and Dr. W, N.
(Carswell, of the same city. Drs, S. W,
Jones and H. C. Wood, of Jefferson
ville, also came here with the injured
man.
The shooting is the outgrowth of
the congressional race in the Twelfth
District. Shannon, a cousin of Judge
Hughes, was an active worker in his
campaign for re-election. Sheriff E.
E. Wimberly, a brother-in-law of
Carswell, opposed Hughes and came
near turning the county in favor of
Larsen. |
Carswell and Larsen met at the
Faulk warehouse, and the race was
brought up. Carswell claimed he
voted for Hughes and was sorry his
brother-in-law opposed him, The lie
i; said to have been passed between
them.
Carswell in a statement made to his
brother before going on the operating
table said, “Shannon pulled his gun
immediately and fired twice as I ad
vanced to keep him from shooting. He
had been drinking.”
Shannon pleads self-defense.
“Carswell came to my office,”” ha
sald. “After an argument over the
election, the lie was passed. Cars
well rushed around lattice work which
separated us, with his knife open in
his hand. There was nothing for me
to do but shoot or be cut. T pulled
my gun out of my desk drawer.”
MILK PROBE PLANNED.
(By Internationa! News Service.)
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.—Milk
distributing business in most large
cities in the United States is in the
hands of monopolies, according to
evidence in the hands of investigators
of the Department of Agriculture,
and the Department of Justice is
planning to join in the nation-wide
investigation with a view to filing
anti-trust suits against the milk
trusts, it was announced here today.
Must Discourage
Men Who Drink
In a recent decision the Federal Court
says: "It is the duty of a railroad to
protect its patrons by discharging men
who use intoxicants.' Better protect
your “job,”” your health, family and
business by taking the Neal Treatment.
