ATHENS, Sept. 16.—Recent events
at Kavala are described by a Mr.
Skidmore, an American employee of
the Standard Oil Company, as fol
ows
«1 left Kavala Tuesday afternoon
in a small Greek steamer, aboard
which were 2,000 refugees, and arrived
at Piraeus Wednesday night.
«Twelve thousand women and chil
dren remained there seeking means to
escape. Monday afternoon a Ger
man aeroplane dropped three bombs,
missirg the refugees’ ship only by
about three yards. The same aero
plane previously had bombed the
town, killing several persons.
“Casques, boats, even rafts were
overcrowled and everywhere efforts
were made to catch the first steamer
leaving Kavala.
“A number of boats were towed by
two British trawlers to the Island
of Thasos.
“At Thasos I met Colonel Christo
Deloupolos, who was in command of
1,000 Greek soldiers. He told me he
had distributed his men outside of
the town and had placed six moun
tain guns and four other heavy guns
in good positions to meet the on
slaughts of the Bulgars, but, owing
to their great numbers, he decjded
to retire.
“‘f I had resisted them,” said the
colonel, ‘we would have been cap
tured, so I preferred to retire and go
elsewhere in the hope that we might
eventually prove useful.’”
Colonel Hassapoulos, commandant
at Kavala, with his staff, surrendered
to the Bulgarians outside of the town.
They were followed by the greater
part of the garrison.

Two Bales of Cotton
Stolen From Farmer
If there is one thing harder to steal
than a bale of cotton it is two bales
of cotton. And yet that is exactly
the theft that is causing George Dun
can grief and financial anguish, and
spurring him on to enlist the services
of the Atlanta police department.
Duncan is a farmer, living near
Norcross, Ga. The two bales of cot
ton were last year's staple, which
Duncan had been holding for a good
price. The price arrived about the
same time that the cotton disap
peared.
Duncan says he traced the vehicle
that carried his property well on the
road to Atlanta before he lost track
of it

Has the President W
the Labor Vote?
Instead of the many * manufactured” campaign issues, remarks the San
Francisco Bulletin (Independent), *‘ we now have one that grew, like Topsy,
and is real flesh and blood.” The railroad strike settlement could hardly escape
playing a part in the Presidential campaign, and politicians all over the country
have been giving their main attention to the effect that the President’s action will
have on his voting strength. _
In THE LITERARY DIGEST for September 16th, the leading article
presents a careful estimate of the President’s chances of winning the labor
vote, based upon the editorial utterances of leading newspapers of every shade
of political opinion in the United States.

Judge Newt Morris will succeed
Judge H. L. Patterson on the bench
of the Blue Ridge circuit without a
protest from the defeated candidate,
it was decided Friday night at a con
ference in Atlanta of Judge Patter
son and several friends. The State
convention will have no contest to
decide.
The protest considered for a time
was based on the fact that a numebr
of Fannin County Republicans voted
for Judge Morris in the Democratic
primary. His majority in Fannin was
534, and his total majority only 393
votes, so if Fannin County were
thrown out Judge Morris would be
defeated.
Judge Morris has twice lost this
bench by contest, having gained the
largest popular vote over Judge
Gober several years ago and Judge
Patterson at the last election, only to
have some of his votes thrown out.
The large proportion of Republican
votes in the Blue Ridge region has
been responsible for a number of con
vention fights after Democratic pri
maries.
