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!"

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. .

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.
