H. White, Jr., and J.' J. McLen don. who head the enterprise. The meat ordinance, which Is both long and drastic, was gone over sec tion by section and adopted, with only a few minor changes. It Will be pre sented to council Monday next and there lx no doubt It will be adopted, thus assuring Atlanta meats absolute ly free of all dlse^ge and dirt, meats not only pure and wholesome, but of good quality for all times—providing Us terms are enforced. Before the meeting was called to order' Messrs. White and McLendon were heard from. Mr. White explained that he came before the committee to assure Its members that no outside corporation waa Interested In the new enterprise In any way, shape or manner. "Mr. McLendon and I have been connected with Swift A Co,” said Mr. White, "but ojth of us resigned our positions to engage In business for ourselves. Atlanta presents a line opening, and we have decided to start that business In this city, where both of us have worked—that 1s, If the city will give us proper protection." When asked what he meant by prop er protection, Mr. White said: "We do pot ask for any special fa vor; the protection I speak, of. la the ordinance you are here to consider.

The cause of death was a complication of paralysis and general nervous breakdown, brought on.

For over a week prevloue to the death Mr. Dlmmock was uncon scious. Mr. Dlmmock Is survived by his wife, one son, Avery Milter Dlmmock, 14 yesre of age; two brothers, Thomas W.

We must have the support and confidence of the Atlanta people to make a success of this business." , Councilman Oldknow naked If It was the purpose of the company to create a monopoly. Mr. McLendon said It was not. that they did not ask for any privileges that would not be given to competitors and that the new company was not to be a trust. "It Is to be run on the co-operative plan. We hope to get every local meat dealer Interested In the company, so that he will participate In the benefits and help along the biViness.” LIFE OF DR. H. P. COOPER WOULD HAVE BEEN 8PARED. Chairman Walter A. Taylor then called the meeting to order. Before the reading of the ordinance Dr. Taylor said It was his belief that Dr. Hunter P. Cooper would stilt be alive had the proposed ordinance been a law six months ago. "The ptomaine poison which Dr. Cooper got from eating chops was the Indirect cause of his death.” said Dr. Taylor. “We can not afford to waste any more time In get- this law Into effect.

FEATURE8 OF ORDINANCE AS PASSED BY COMMITTEE. Borne of the principal features of the ordinance follow: Workers In the slaughter houses must have health certificates, stating that they have no contagious nr In fectlous disease. The workers must wear sanitary clothing. , Tha floors must be built of concrete, properly guttered and graded. All animals must be Inspected *-fore and after being killed.

There must be steam for cleansing As a result of what Is believed have been a deliberate plan to kUI bis keeper, Ed Richmond, convicted of train robbery, was shot to death Tuesday afternoon by Guard Pet Fry at the Federal prison. Richmond was believed to be one of the worst prisoners the authorities at the prison had to handle and, It Is said, has several times since his Incarcera tlon, given the guards a great deal of trouble. , He wqs sent to Atlanta In February, 1902, from the Indian Territory, charg. ed with train robbery. He was to have served ten years. In the early part of 1902 ho was the leader of mutiny In the chapel and on various occasions before and since hks given the guards trouble In one way or an other. Tuesday he was at work In the shed where for two years he has been cut ting stone for use In the finishing of the prison. He "hod It In" for Guard Fry and began In the afternoon to wor. ry him continuously. Finally he went to one end of the shed so often that the guard followed him there to find what was the matter. Went Into the Box. The place to which he had gone was under the gunrd box at that end of the shed and the only other guard who was supposed to hare been armed was In a similar box at the other end of the building three hundred feet away. Fry, who was on the floor with the prison era all the time, was not supposed to be armed and the prisoner had drawn him to a point where the rifle of one of the armed guards would be useless. But Fry had a pistol. When Fry ordered him bark to work the prisoner cursed him nnd told him he had him Just where he wanted him. H« advanced on Fry, who attempted to push him back with the cun ed end of bis heavy cane. Richmond grabbed this weapon nnd Jerked It from the guard's hands. Tried to Brain Fry, He then attempted to brain Fry. striking several blows at him. Fry tried to avoid killing him and hs gave him a fleshwound In the right arm pit. Like a wild animal, with only a few of the hunter’s bullets In him, the prisoner only tried the harder to kill the guard. Finally Fry, when he was In Immediate danger of being killed hlmseir, put u third bullet right above his assailant's heart, killing him almost Instantly. Fry had been threatened several times by Richmond, who told him that If It was not for the other guards hs would have been killed long before, nnd for this reason carried a revolver with out the knowledge of the men among whom he worked. Guard Fry was considered by War den W. H. Moyer to be one of his best man. He has had years of service as • prison guard and was very cool and self-possessed In dealing with danger ous prisoners. He cams to Atlanta two years ago from Nashville, Tenn, where he had for seven years been connected with the Tennessee state penitentiary. If neither the guard nor the prisoner had been armed the odds would proh. nbly been In favor of the latter. Hi had been at work In the stone shed for two years and this had made him a powerful man. After he had taken Fry's cane from him he could have killed the guard had not Fry been armed with a pistol. Warden Moyer has wired to the In dian Territory to And If Richmond's relatives wish his body sent there. If he receives no reply It will be burled at the grave yard at the prison. 00000000000000000000000004 O WELCOME, WILLIAM! w 0 WELCOME TO OUR CITY. 0 HO0OO0OOO0OOO000O0OOOOOOOO eposes In eve ry abattoir.

Philadelphia, Pa., Aug. 29.—Tre' mendous excitement was caused when It became known that the Resa Estate Trust Company had failed for 17,000,- 000 and thousands of men and women rushed to the bank and fought to get at the paying teller's window. So ill were railed to preserve order. Depositors Throng Street. The street In front of the Trust building at Broad and Chestnut streets was blocked early today by a surging mob of depositors and others who had gathered expecting to see trouble. Po lice reserves were powerless to keep traffic moving. The rumor that Frank H. Hippie, president of the company, who had died last Friday had committed sui cide, wits verified today. He took laudnaum and while still conscious Ailed his bath tub with water and waa found apparently drowned. Speculation Csusss Crash. The crash was brought about by the speculations entered Into by President Hippie with Adolph Segal, promoter ot various enterprises which have not been financial successes. Segal alone owes the trust company 36.300,000. The company's liabilities are approx imately 310.000,000, with quick assets of about 33,500,000 and doubtful collat eral of about 38,000,000.

The securities are supposed to be safe. Nothing Is known of the trust funds. A striking feature of the fail ure Is the tremendous losses that relig ious and charitable Institutions will suffer. Hippie was a prominent church man and as such was treasurer of numerous Institutions. Churches May Loss. It Is estimated that the Presbyterian church and allied societies hsd 31,000,- 000 In the wrecked bank.

Was Hippie Hypnotized? It Is asserted today by the friends of the dead president that Adolph Segal exerted a hypnotic Influence over Hip pie In order to hide the real condition of the company and save himself. Hip pie Is said to have resorted to the falsification of his accounts which were accepted as true by the directors. Ha made what Is termed a “double sys tem" of making reports. When the state bank examiner culled Hippie presented to him good securi ties to offset the loans made and when the president made his reports to the directors he would show them a bundle of securities and other papers, and along with these he would exhibit the certificate of the bank examiner, which show ed that the account* the examiner had Investigated were correct. The di rectors supposing the securities shown them were the same, approved the reports. Receiver Earle says he has hopes of re-opsnlng the-Institution. Arrests Expected. George H.
