MILTON SMITH'S STRATEGY
PUTS CITY IN EXCITEMENT
AND MA YOR UP IN THE AIR
Mayor Woodward Is hoarse!
His office la overflowing with bulky
communications of Identical else and
wording!
The mayor's telephone has • hot box
and the people of Atlanta are still pus-
sled.
All because of Milton H. • Smith,
president of the Louisville and Nash
ville Railroad.
The trouble started Saturday and
seems destined to continue for some
week*. Certainly there was no respite
Monday.
To condense the most ludicrous sit
uation In municipal afTalrs that has
come to pass In many, many nfoonst
The city council passed an ordinance
allowing the Louisville A Nashville
three openings to the railroad yard on
East Hunter street and one on Butler
street. The railroad wanted the entlro
sidewalk In front of Its property. Now
President Smith send* out some thous
and rnmmunlratlona to the business
men of Atlanta In which he stated. In
no uncertain words, exactly what laws
the city should pass relative to the
openings. These communications con
sisted of a six-page, single-space,
typewritten letter, addressed to Mayor
Woodward; a two-page letter from
Mayor Woodward to tne council and a
three-foot map showing the yards on
Hunter street nnd a large part of Ihl*
terrestrial globe in connection there
with.
Everybody Got ’Em.
These communications were received
by every business man of prominence
In the city. There was no accompany
ing explanatory note of the "enclosed
you will find" order, so, of course, the
cltlr.cn* were pussled. “Why should a
communication addressed to the may
or be sent to mu?" was the natural
query. And then the recipient would
call up the mayor's office. When he
wn* informed by central that "There
are 7»» call* ahead of you," he would
then hie himself, bulky communication
In hand, to the office on the third floor
of the city hall.
Saturday the mayor's office wire the
appearance of an apartment store on
bargain day. Monday it looked Ilk* a
metropllttan poetofflce. Both day* the
telephone kept up a continuous ac
companiment to the fiery phrases ejac.
ulated by the mayor.
"Hello • • Throw It In the waste
basket. • • Nothing to It. • • I’m
besieged with ’em. • •"
"Mr. Mayor?" a
"Tea, I know—Hello—Throw It In the
waste basket. There are—"
"Mr. Mayor, hern's a letter. It must
belong to you. Sent to me by mlat—”
"It'* an outrage—reflection on the
city council—Yes, I know what It Is—
Ia»k at this waste basket—Hello."
And thus It has continued throughout
the two days.
Opened by Mistake.
The Woodward Mantel Company sent
a profuse letter of apology by a special
messenger to the mayor along with the
great brown official communication,
marked "Having opened It by ml*
take."
H. W. Yarbrough, of 21-2 Auburn
avenue, mistaking the. Idea of the com
munication. wrote president Smith,
quoting a 32 price on framing the map
with a 2-Inch oak frame, ‘Including
glass and wire," and sollcltng further
business.
Many other things were done, but
most of the recipient* after having
spent, several of their valuable hour*
attempting to ferret out the mystery,
simply "cussed."
One amusing feature of the situa
tion was the fact that President Smith
In hi* ultra-sealousners to make the
law* of the land as would best eult the
Louisville and Nashville, sent out many
of the communications with two 2-cent
stnmps. This would not be cause for
comment but for the fact that one of
th stamps was a due stamp.
What Mayor Woodward said was
probably lost track of, even by the re
cording angel; certainly no mere mor
tal could have taken down the rapid
fir* of splcey explanations.
Throughout Saturday he stood the
strain wonderfully well, despite the
somber predictions of his friend* that
*e wouldTiave nervous prostration, but
shortly after noon Monday he gave the
howling populus, which wa* mobollzed
In the nnty room, the slip by getting
through the side door.
As the door closed some one said:
Milton Smith be—?"
And some one else said; "It was the
mayor!"

St. Petersburg. July 30.—It has been
Impossible as yet to verify the rumor
that General Trepoff has been assas
sinated. While the report has been of
ficially denied. It still persists, and Is
credited In usually well-informed cir
cles.
The most serious report of trouble In
the provinces cornea from Trans-Cau
casia. The section around Shusa Is In
open rebellion,' and the rebels have set
fire to that town. The whole section
Is In a state of panic.
The state of feeling In the army Is
Indicated by the reports of the mutiny
of the Flrat battalion of the Sevskt
regiment at Poltava. A number of the
men of this battalion had been present
at a meeting of the Social Democrats,
which was raided by the police.
One of the soldiers was captured and
the whole battalion, assisted by a great
mob, attempted to rescue him. It was
only by the use of machine guns that
the mob was quelled.
M. Stolyplu has Indicated hla willing
ness to receive and confer with delega
tion* of peasants from various sections
who are coming to learn at flrat hand
what the government's Intentions are
as to the distribution*.
In government circles this Is regard
ed as a moat encouraging symptom.
The douma deputies are gradually
dispersing to their home*, many of tho
peasants with much sinking at heart
In vlaw of their failure to redeem their
pledge to bring bnck with them land
and freedom. Many constitutional
democratic deputies nfter learning tha
state of feeling of their constituent*
will return to report nt the party con
gress to be held probably In FtnWnd
toward the end of August. .
United States Ambassador Meye;'
wa* summoned to Peterhof Sunday to
enlighten tho czar upon -how the new*
of hla dissolving of tha douma had
been received In America and what
Impresaton It bad produced upon the
government nt Washington.
Mr. Meyer spent two hour* In the
esaria study In the Peterhof palate
answering questions nnd giving the In
formation sought for. Of course the
ambassador’s Up* are sealed by diplo
matic ethics as to what was said at
thla highly significant Interview.
It la said the czar gave tho Ameri
can ambassador positive assurance that
he certainly will establish conatltutlon-
al institutions.
There will be no general strike at
present. The leaders of the working
men have agreed that It will be beet to
postpone action of this kind until prep
arations are further advanced. Dele
gates to the late douma are making
their way to their constituencies for
the purpose of sounding public opin
ion,' and jt Is understood that tha
douma will be called again about the
flrat of September.
It la aald that FI. Alladln. leader of
the "Group of Toll” In the douma, haa
returned from London, where ho went
to attend the meeting of the Inter-par-
llsmentary union, but he la keeping
himself very quiet, as It Is understood
that the police aro seeking to arreat
him. . .
The escape of Samendorff. regarded
aa one of the most dangerous revolu
tionary organisers In Russia, from pris
on at Sevastopol, haa caused much Joy
In revolutionary circles. It la staled
on high authority this afternoon that
General Trepoff haa not been assassi
nated. The brewery at Schuaaalburg
has been destroyed by riotous work
men.
