ANOTHER GOODWIN FAKE EXPOSED.
What Mr. Walker Says Of One Of His Canards.
' The card published. by Mr. Good-
win purporting to give n statement by
P. M. Moody, to the effect that he went
While In the employ of the city, accom
panied by me, to Chief Joyner'a farm
and that he took down wires from
for the chief Is a miurepresentatlon of
the facts. >
I havp no recollection of ever going
to the farm with Moody.
No wires or any other material he
longing to the city Was ev«r shipped to
Joyner’s farm. I know this because I
have been superintendent of lire alarms
for twenty-four years. I am further
fully satisfied that no work of nny
kind was ever done on that farm at the
expense of the city. To charge the
contrary Is an outrnge on a good and
honest man. Respectfully.

berto Gomez, of Havana, known as the
colored orator and one of the most
Influential L4bcrql leaders. Gomez hn.<

MISS CRIMM’S TESTIMONY
CONCERNING ORPHANAGE
"The children and Mr*. Harwell are out. They will probably have
n good day and bring In lota of money, a« they have been nut atm', morn
ing," was the atatenfnt made to Mia* Dolly Crlmm, who has spent her life
In atudylhg method* of handling chqrlli**, and la at present head i.f the
Methodist 8ettlem*ht Home. - .
Mlaa Crlmm wua naked to vlalt the orphanage by Secretary I..'Kan,
of th* Aaaoclated Charltle*. I-’rom her teatlmony ahe found Hint Mrs.
Harwell had been out all the day with about elxleon of the children; thin
Mra. Harwell had received absolutely no training for the work ahe la
carrying on; that the children were "trained by Our Heavenly Father:''
■hat the little one* “piust go to the services on the street# to get money;"
that not much time waa given to leaaon* a* the children gave moat of
their time to the atreet meetings, and that the. place was poorly equip
ped, and many other things.
Mia* Crlmm stated that at the present day nnd time n life of train
ing was considered necessary for such work and that she could hardly
explain the pathos of the situation. "The children seem to have ■
lately no time for pleasures. Their whols time la given up to these
atreet meetings, to prayer and to work In the Institution."
During this testimony Mrs. Harwell Jumped to her fret and holding
aloft the Bible, declared; "The Are I* burning In my soul. I must speak."
Two Forgsd Cheek* Passed.
8perli|| to The (icorglmi.
Brunswick, Ga., Aug. 20.--A young
man who went undor the nnmn of (\
II. Kd wards succeeded In getting two
forged cheek, for ,10 cashed here and
escaped.
Mr. and Mrs. Harwell
Tried Before the
Recorder.
Evidence, In Its trend strongly sug
gesting that the “Memorial Orphan
age” nt 62 and 64 McDaniel street ha»
been run more for mercenary than
charitable purposes, was given In the
recorder’s court Saturday afternoon
when Mrs. Ida M. Harwell, manager
of the Institution, her husbund, J. R.
Harwell, three of their assistants and
24 <;lili<1rc*n appeared op the charge of
blocking the public thoroughfares with
out permit and to show cause Vhy the
children shoulcFnot be placed In a state
Institution.
After several flours were taken up In
testimony, Acting Recorder W. D. El
lis, Jr., dismissed the first case and
gave the defendants until September 6
to*put the fhstftutlon on a more bual-
ness-ltke basis.
City Attorney Jqntes L. Mayson con
ducted the defense. City Warden Ev-
*tt», Probation. Officer QJoer, Miss Dolly
Crlmm, head of the Methodist Settle
ment Home; Human? Officer Carnes,
and Secretary Logan, of the-Associated
Charities of Georgia, were among the
Itnesse*.
Led by Mr*. Harwell, who carried In
her hand a large Bible, the 24 little
tots, varying In age from 81-2 to 14
years, appeared In the court room
shortly after 3 o’clock. During the Jong
and tedious trial the babies held, for
a time, their eyes wide open, then slow
ly us tho strangeness of the scene wore
off climbed aboard the train-/or dream
land where, from the testimony, they
doubtless participated In the only
pleasures of their lives.
The first case called was that of
blocking the streets. Much testimony
of minor Interest was given and Coun
cilman Ellis asked Mr. Harwell wheth
er he would promise not to appear
again on the streets In meeting with
the children until proper permits were
obtained. Mr. Harwel side-stepped this
proposition, claiming that he was only
a manager and agent for his wife, who
was the real bond of the Institution.
The judge then attempted to dicker
with “the real head of the Institution.”
Out Mrs. Harwell also side-stepped
“Must Consult the Lord First.”
‘I don’t know whether I can promise
that or not,” said Mrs. Harwell, then
after meditation, during which time the
Inspiration doubtteus cams to her, she
ontinued, “I must consult the Lord
about thl* matter. I would not think
of answering until l hgve prayed for
HI* guidance.”
She then promised to telephone her

Officer Gloer and (’hlef Jennings, who

any under 10 years old.
Logan Gives Evidence,
Secretary Logan said that he bad
been asked to Inspect the Institution.
For his testimony he found some thir
teen of tha smaller children out In what
was called tha kindergarten, "a small
room In the yard, where rubbish waa
plied In tha corners,” under the super
vision of a U-yqar-old girl. Many of
the little ones were asleep on the floor.
He found that the children had to sleep
three In u bed, und thnt In one lnatgpee
where there were six boys and girls
from the same family, all slept In the
same room. That babies and those In
their ttens all ate the same kind of
food. Thut tho "aohool room" waa In
tho cellar and fitted out with several
desks, boxes and broken chairs. He
*uld;
"Mrs. Harwell lias nehherlthe train

ment. did In conversation with him j maha.
make the following statement: I ••• THOMAS H. GOODWIN,
On Investigating I found that
tie chap had been suffering from fever
nnd headache all the morning, arid was
given no medicine or attention. He waa
lobl to pray/'. Ha stated. In contra-
dieting Mr. Harwell, who made the as
sertion that the children had never
ncslded on the streets, that he Imd
awakened one little fellow belonging
to the Institution who waa asleep
agalr e-.i telegraph post and had given
him u bug of candy.
t’lty Warden Kvnns gave testimony
similar to tha Information set forth
In his report to President Longlno.
Pastor Hodge Appeals.
Pastor Hodge, of the Free Methodist
church, said In part:
"l have' lived In your dear elty for
nine years, nearly every one know*
me. These dear people are members
of my church and are cnrrylng on a
J lnrtoua work. I am sure that tha dear
udge and these other dear people will
not stop this glorious work.
He followed this with a strong plea,
and astonlshrd the court by asking thut
the city appropriate u sum of money
to help along the "glorloBs wg>rk.” He
eaid: "The Lord will provide," and
reiterated the statement of Mr. und
Mrs. Harwell that Sirs. Harwell was
called by the Lord to carry on the or
phanage.
Councilman Kills, In closing, stated
that ho believed It waa the Intention
to do a good work, and that he would
give Mr. and Mr*. Harwell until Sep-
ppople have given away entirely to
despair, and when railway communi
cation Is re-catabllahed they will flock
to Santiago.
Tho entire business section of the
city Is wrecked and flame-swept. Jn
tha lower part of the city, the beautiful
section built upon land reclaimed from
tho bay, Is utterly destroyed and part
ly under wnter, as tbs earth's crust has
sunk. Throughout the rlty there are
fissure* In the ground fifty feet wide
and over a hundred feet deep.
Several Hotels Collapsed.
The' strict military patrol makes the
gathering of news extremely difficult.
It Is certain, however, that nearly every
building In the city waa damaged. The
Alemendral district, where the city’s
best residences were located, suffered
must. Tha government arsenal, the
naval school, the navy department
buildings, the customs house, the Ho-
uui|uiii|ji9| ana; unumin iiuumc* hie nil-
tel Royal, the buildings of the Chile
and Tgrapaoa hank, the newspapers
Miectrlrto and Mercurlo and the houses
of Roas and Edwards are known to
have collapsed.
It lo reported that the Hotel Ingles
collapsed, burying the Inmates.
Funds for Sufferer*.
Th* funds collected through Chile for
the Inauguration of President Monet
will he distributed among the earth
quake sufferers. From Ruenos Ayres
comes word that the Jockey Club has
headed a subscription for the sufferers
here with a contribution of 10,000
pesos.
To rebuild the city will be an enor
mous task. Reconstruction In the low
er city will have to be on a different
Plan. So far there Is no .talk of re
construction. Bom* of the dead are
unburied and the homelesa and the
hungry have to be fed.
