Btrlin, Aug.' 27.—A dispatch from Odessa this afternoon says that all the principal military and civil officers of Odessa have resigned, including Gen srsl Kaulbars. governor general of the city. By GEORGE FRAZER. By Private Leased Wire. London, Aug. 27.—A news agency has received a dispatch from Warsaw, saying that General WenlarskI, gov. ernor general of Warsaw, has been shot and killed by an assassin who made his escape. Bpevlsl - Cable—Copyright. St. Petersburg, Aug.. 27.—The "Red Leaders". are abroad In Russia. The official world la panic-stricken, but It It much more probable, according to competent observers, that their panic will talte the direction of bloody re prlsals rather than - the granting of concessions. The bold assassination of General Min, commander of the Semlvosky reg iment, by a young girl, In the presence of his wife and children, the futile at tempts on the life of General Kaulbars at Odessa, which failed only by an ac cident; the discovery of the terrorists with bombs In the grounds of the czar's palace, evidently Intent on carrying out the death sentence against his majesty, all following close on the heels of the dreadful occurrence at the palace of Prime Minister Stolypln, Is all elo quent evidence that the campaign of assassination Is In progress and that the threats of the terrorists are being carried out In deadly earnest. Wldezprsad Plot Found.' ; Premier Stolypln Is In strict retire ment for'• the present, but he Is said to have urged the czar to rezlzt the demand of the reactionaries, headed by the grand dukes, for a military dicta, torshlp. It Is urged that the former program be put Into effect as the only eljerngtlve' for civil war and worse outrages. His two children who were wounded are progressing favorably. The young woman, who killed General Min .de clares she killed him for hls many bru tal acts towards the people. It la stated today that the police have discovered In the papers of the perpetrators of the Stolypln massacre evidence! of a widespread plot.

Comer will carry the state with a good- majority for governor, with .a close fight between Emmett O’Neal and H. B. Gray for lieutenant governor.

Spraglna. for the senate, with no opposition; A. D. Kirby and N. M. Rowe, for the legislature, opposed by W. Grayson and R. E. Smith. Special to The Georgian. Montgomery, Ala., Aug. 27.—The pri mary for nomination of state officers In Alabama Is on today. The campaign for governor has not been a* hot In this state as It was In Georgia, but one of the same Issues Is Involved—the regulation of railroad rates. Both Cunningham and Comer favor this, but Comer championed It before the people first, when he ran for president of the railroad commission, and was elected by an overwhelming majority. All Indications point to a decisive victory for Mr. Comer. A very lively Interest Is manifested and a good vote being polled. Indications are that the following state ticket will be nominated: Alternate United States Senators— Joseph F. Johnston, of Birmingham, and John B. Knox, of Anniston. Governor—B. B. Comer, of Blrmlng- h< IJeutennnt Governor—Henry B. Oray, r.anUnoed Several of the slaughter house men of Atlanta will unite their forces and fight the new meat inspection ordl nance which will come up befdre coun ell next Monday, for passage. The fight will be commenced at the meeting of the special Investigating committee which holds Joint session with the board of health Tuesday afternoon at $ o'clock. Up until the present time there has been but little opposition to the ordl nance. The retail butchers of Atlanta asked that eeveral portions of the or' dlnance be changed. These requests, made In writing, wfre submitted to the comnjlttee, and were followed so far os practicable. The reason for the light against the ordinance Is believed to bo that the slaughter house men think a central abattoir, such as will be bujit If the ordinance Is passed, will In Jure'the business of the abattoirs now In existence. However^ It Is the general opinion that a 'central abattoir will be the best possible thin* for the cat tie Industry, not only |n Georgia, but throughout the South and will make Atlanta the - Chicago as welt as the New' York of the South. Wide public Intereet that has been aroused by the Investigation brought about by The Georgian, and the de termination, as a consequence of the findings of the special committee, Wal ter A; Taylor, chairman, to have pure wholesome meats In the future, will, It Is believed, Sweep before It any oppo sition which might be thrown In the way. The central abattoir Is proposed to be not only bo the most complete plant of the kind In the South, so far as In terior arrangements are concerned, but III have a stock yard large enough to accommodate any number of anl mats. The enterprise Is backed by W. H. While, Jr., formerly Southern man ager for the Swift Company; J. J. Mc Lendon, also at one time a manager for the same company; R. L. Walker and the 8. C. Wllkerson & Bros. Gro- eery Company, as well as a number of Atlanta capitalists. The matter of selecting a proper site for the abattoir and stock yards Is still In the embryo. Several places near the river have been gone over and are under consideration. The final de cision will be made soon after the pass age of the qrdlnance. In speaking of the company and what it Intends to do, Mr. White etated that the nominal sum charged for the slaughter of animals and the small re frigerating fee. also to be regulated by the city council, will encourage the farmers around this section of the country to raise cattle and will bring cattle from all portions of the South to Atlanta, which will be used as a dls. 1.4 fe I. \fe IVhltVa Ka. trlbutlng point. It Is Mr. White's be lief that the superior railroad facilities will also greatly aid In building up the cattle business ln the South and that the abattoir will be another feather In Atlanta's cap. Nat Even 8trict Enough, if anything," said Mr. White, "the ordinance Is not strict enough. The stricter the better It will suit us, for without the most rigid regulations we can not hope to get the confidence of the people and cope successfully with the Western meats." Chairman Taylor, of the special com mittee which has carried on the work of Investigating and of drafting the ordinance, Is receiving letters dally from prominent citizens asking that the work be pushed to a successful con clusion. Some of these communica tions follow: ( FROM RANDOLPH ROSE. Dr. Walter T. Taylor, Candler Building, City: Dear Walter—Tour proposed meat ordinance Is a good one. I am anxious to see this ordinance passed. You are certainly doing good work In council. With kind regards and best wishes, 1 remain, yours very truly, RANDOLPH ROSE. Aug. 25, 1908.

Van Winkle, the young Atlantap who recently went to Baku, Russia, for the purpose of Installing elaborate machinery ln oil welle and oil refineries there, was deported from the country In a mysterious manner about two weeks ago. He was served with papers, through the British ambassador, which ordered him to leave the country Immediately, The ordere came from the Russian government. They said the govern ment would not be responsible for his life at the end of It hours. No explanation as to the action was afforded. Such Inquiries as Mr. Van Winkle desired to make were cut short by Russian taciturnity and red tape. It Is supposed that the orders came from the bureaucracy. Mr. Van .Winkle got together hls things, left hta business ln the best shape possible and departed for Paris.' He was registered at the Paris bureau of the New York Herald last week, now on the ocean returning home.

C., Aug. 27.—Rowan special court convened today with Judge Ferguson on the bench. There are several homicide cases In addition the remaining three negroes ac cused of the murder of the Lyerly family, and the lynchere now under In dictment. When the trial of these peo- pie began, six negroes were charged with the crime. The mab hanged three of these and the ofilcers took the othere to Charlotte for safe keep ing. Judge Long, on the day of the lynching, said If there was any attempt at violence, he would stop the proceed ings against the murderers and fight It out with the lynchers If It takes all the summer. Six were arrested. The grand Jury Ignored the bills against three and ont was convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary Wednesday, and put on trial for hls life. He Is supposed to have taken actual part In the hanging of the negroes. Other Indictments In minor degrees will follow. The trial of the murderer* will fol low that of the lynchers. If there has been any more to arrest the processes of the court In the lynching matter, nothing has developed of It. It Is generally understood, howsver, that the mob Is opposed to trial of Gentle and something Is liable to develop at any time. The condition of Della Dillingham, the wife of the murdered Jack Dilling ham, who was the especial hatred of the mob, Is such as makes her trial doubtful. It Is the heaviest docket In years despite the fact that elnce the regular term In May there have been two special session*.
