WHS FIRST POINT AT Bryau’s Friend Drops Out of Race for Chair manship. Bj Private Leased Wire. Peoria, III., Aug. 21.—The fltst battle of the Democratic state convention be tween Roger Hulllvnn and the majority league men left Sullivan leaders In 'control. Congressman Henry T. Rainey, the anti Sullivan candidate for chairman, withdrew and left the fleld to Justice Boggs, Sullivan's man. This was de cided upon after a conference between Balnev nnd Roger Sullivan. The Sul livan forces have ugreed to roll calls on all local questions. The second buttle was on when th< hent-mnddened delegates gathered In bltte** strife at the Collneum this after noon over 'the Sullivan repudiations resolutions. The 26 congressional district cau cuses were held nt lit o'clock today and while they made sweeping radical changes in the make-up of tho state committee they gave no line on the di vision on the Sullivan-Bryan resolu tion.

JEROME IS IGNOREl) IN ICE TRUST CASE Something of a mix-up was caused In the city warden’s records by the similarity In name and appearance of two families of children, one of which has stayed at the "Memorial Orphan age” and the other which Is now In the Institution. City Warden Evans, ufter inspecting the home, made u report in which he mentioned the "Jester children." On viMlting the home Sunday afternoon In company with Secretary Logan, of the Associated Charities, he found that their names are really "Justice.” To correct the natural mistake, he has written the following card: To the Editor of The Georgian: A letter from Mr. J. K. Jester at Dawson. Ga., states that his children have not been In the Memorial Orphan age home since March 20; that they entered there about February 27, ses- and taken out March 20, he having paid $12, the required amount for their' maintenance during that time. Iloi states they are now with him at Daw son. The children there at present are those of a Mr. "Justin" or Juatlce, ac cording to Mrs. llut well's Incoherent statement, owing to the similarity names and from the fact the other chil dren had been there for a short time accounts for the confusion In names. From Mrs. Harwell's previous state ment 1 thought the Jester children were still In the home. As a matter of fact one of these "Justice" children bears a striking resemblance to Jester. . Hence my conclusion to that effect. THOMAS KVA NS, City Warden. Mr. I.ogan wrote the following state ment: Today In company with Mr. Thomas Evans, city warden of Atlanta, 1 visited the Memorial Orphauage at 62-64 Mc Daniel street. Wc talked with Mr. and Mrs. Harwell. In the course of a number of Inquiries Mr. Evans asked Mrs. Harwell distinct ly If she had the "Jester" children still with her, and she replied that site did have them—two girls. Later In the conversation and shortly before left, the "Jester" children were again mentioned In connection with the amount their father hnd paid Mrs. Har well for their hoard. At this time Mrs. Harwell mentioned that their father was it peddler. Mr. Evans Immediate ly l>egan to question her closely about the nnme of the children, and Mrs. Harwell said she didn’t know exactly what their game was: that It was "Jester" or 'Justin," or "Justice," or something like that." I’p to this point 1 had understood the name of the children to l»e "Jes ter," and would have hud no reason to think anything else. In answer to Mr, Evans* distinct Inquiry about the "Jes ter" children, Mrs. Harwell had stated that the two girls were with her. I developed that the children Mrs. iTnr* well referred to are named "Justice.’ JOSEPH «'. LOGAN, General Secretary. Tills August 2d, 1906. By Private leased Wire. New York.
