Clay Means, Ifte Republican guber natorial rfomlnee. Candidate For Railroad Commission Says Convention Had No Right to De clare the Nominee. The following card haa been received from Mon. T, <?> Crenshaw, candidate for railroad commissioner: PROPERTV HOLDERS WILLJK NOTIFIED Work on the New Postoffiee Will Be Started October 15. The properly owners who Sold the §"t of the new pustoffice to the govern ni»nt will next week be notlfled to aacale, and on October IS the repre s- ntatlves of the supervising nrchllsct’s oflire wilt take ehurge of the lot. This Will be the Orel step looklnt to the end of Atlanta*! long nnd strenuous fight for adequate pcalnl facilities, ntnl « HI tw a welcome move fit both the of- n> Inis of the locnl pnstnfltce and to tlie business men of Atlanta. A- outlined by Supervising Architect J. Knox Taylor during his recent visit l" \tluhln, the hiilldlng will be 190 feel • I'tari-. and will lie four rtorles In krlghi. the entire flrst floor being oc- miiled hv the postoffiee, thus git lug almost twice the present arcoinmodn- lions In the main work room there will be 10.000 square feet of available Working spare The most surprising statement which Mr. Taylor triads during hie recent visit V as that at the present rate of Increase of postal receipts of Atlanta It would ;■! obnbly be necessary to abandon this building, so far as the postoffiee depart* 111' nt Is totirarned, within the next five or six years, nnd erect another and more commodious structure, covering at |cn«t- an entire block mid situated somewhere near the Terminal Station. Tit* policy has been adopted by the government that In the future one- s'.ory postofflcee will be built, which shall be plain but utllltaniin structures of hrirk nnd steel, and the building soon to be put up In Atlanta will prob able be the last postoffiee nf classical design to be constructed by the govern ment.

Thai looks llkt n long way ofT, but the tHI»f wll. be nonetheless welcome when li comes. NEGRO LIFTED PURSE AND THEN 'FESSED UP Mrs. A. ft. Rider, nf 171 North lloule- vsrrl, was moving Thursday afternoon and employed Severn) negroes to assist her. Ons of thtm let the olhejs do tho heavy lifting while be moved a pookstbonk containing 111 from a bed room to the bark yard. The pockelbook was missed In a few minutes and JWssa Matthews, the only negro w ho had left the house, was aua pecteil. He denied his guilt to Officer Molllngaworth, who was called In, hut after being placed under arrest, derid ed to tell a straight story. The pocket- oooft, stripped of Its contents, wns re covered from the weeds, where Mat thews had thrown It, and the missing currency was dug from beneath a pile of dirt near a negro cabin rloae by. Matthews was sent to jail Saturday m Hiring tn await the action of the city court. To the Rdltor of The Oeorgtan: in the Issue of The Journal of the 8th Ihst. that paper Say*: “Thomas ('. frenshaw, of Cherokee county, a form er railroad commissioner, has Inde pendently announced nla candidacy against S. a. Mrl,emlnrt. the nominee of the state Democratic parly.” AH I ask of the press nf the stale la fair treatment. It Is unfair lo say I am an Independent candidate for rail road commissioner. -I am ready nnd willing at any time to make an oath thqt 1 never In my whole life voted against the nominees nf the Democratic parly, and that I never dodged a vote. My party has several times pul me In position where 1 had to vote against my convictions, but I took my msdlclne, inarched to the polls and voted for the Democratic nominee without making a face. I now beg to ask the question: • 'an all of those who are throwing stones at me, and branding me an In dependent candidate for railroad com mieslonef, hold Up their right hand and take the same oath? ■ Please do me the Justice to read my announcement, over my own elgpa- ture, and see If I did hot say 1 was a Democratic candidate for railroad com missioner. I have nowhere as PI I was an Independent randldstn, and existing conditions do not Justify my being branded as such. I hhve served as alderman and as mayor of IsKirsiige, GO, two terms os a member of the legislature from Troup county, collector of Internal rev enue for the district of Georgia, general agent of the Central railroad and rail road commissioner. My records Ih each of these iiosltlona are legitimate subjects of criticism, and I am ready to face them when the lime light la turned on me. I ask, however, to he treated fairly and not misrepre sented. I hold—and the facie will sus tain me—that th* Macon convention exceeded Its nuthoiity when It under- look to nominate a candidate for rail road commissioner. The state Democratic executive com mittee met and provided for the nomi nation of candidates for United States senator, governor, secretary of state, treasurer, comptroller general, commis sioner of agriculture, commissioner nf education, prison commissioner, Jus tices of the supreme court, judges o the superior court and solicitor genera In the circuits where there were vacan cies, by primary election, to be held on August 22, 1900. Although the law, at the time of the primary election, on August 22, required a railroad commissioner lo be elected the general election .In October thereafter, no provision was made for the people lo express their choice for a railroad commissioner, nnd they did not so express themselves. Rvery per son. therefore, ran vote ns he pleases In the October election In the selection of a railroad commissioner. All that the Macon convention could have done Within the powers delegated to It by the people was lo recommend the elec-, lion of Mr. McLendon, which they did not do, but nominated him straight out as a candidate for railroad com missioner. 1 contend that those voting In the primary election on August 22, 1909, art not bound by the action of the Macon rohventlott, whan It usurped the power It did by nominating a can didate for railroad commlisloner. when the selection of a candidate tor rail road commissioner was not an Iseue In the primary election, at the time the delegates were selected. It appears that a candidate for railroad cmntnls- sloner was agreed on In Atlanta, In advance of the meeting Of the Macon convention end nflerwnrds nominated by the Macon convention. I believe the people of CJeorgla will, at the ballot box In October next, xuetaln me In my contention, which Is that the delegates to the Macon convention only had the authority to recommetfd the election of n candidate for railroad commis sioner, but had no authority lo nomi nate one, nnd thereby bind the Demo cratic party by such nomination. Very respectfully, T. C. CRENSHAW. Atlanta, Oa„ Sept. 7. KING OF HOTEL DEAD BE A TS SA YS THAT HE IS A SUICIDE New York, Sept. 7.—Although a man frequently signing himself John T. Hardin, and known as the "King of Draft,” otherwise the "prince of hotel beats," announced his suicide, hotel keepers In this city who were victim ised by him, today do not bellev* that he Is dead. Despite the doubt, how ever, three hotels have written In red Ink across his accounts, "Committed suicide.” The National Hotel Keepers' Asso ciation has received from him a vale dictory address, dated Detroit, and written on the letter paper of the Wayne hotel, of that city. It glvea the list of hla victims, and according to his record, he defrauded thirty-two Innkeepern and private cltlsena In all parts of the United Staten during the month of August. He asked that his real name be kept secret to aave his wife and mother embarrassment. HE KNE W CA SSIE CHA D WICK TO THE TUNE OF $800,000 REBELS IN CUBA MAT INSIST. ON He Fears That Resignation Would Bring Reign of Aoarchv, By MANUEL CALVO. Special Cable—Copyright. Havana, Cuba, Sept, 7.—Word confidently expected from Pino Guerra today that he ha* Joined Asbert In Ha- vana and Guzman In Santa Clara In agreeing to permit General ilenocol an opportunity to bring about peace, by ngreelng to an armistice. General Menocol today expressed the utmost confidence that his efforts would be crowned with success, others, how- ever, ere not no hopeful. It Is feared the rebels will Insist upon the retlremen of President Palma, and I have high authority for ataiing that Palma will under no circumstances content even to give euch a proposi tion consideration: not that Palma would not be perfectly willing to re tire, If hla retirement meant permanent jeace for the'eountry, but he thinks t not only would not mean peace, but It would mean anarchy, and ultimate annexation by the United Slates.

The nsw Intrr-urban line from At-to remove any comtnlsalnner for re- lama lo Macon may aolve the two-cent passenger fare problem. Until then, however, the two-rent passenger fares will still be In vogue and distant future according to the line-up of the preaerl commlsalon. Railroad Commissioner Brown ha* several months yet to serve. Com missioner McLendon, when he goes Into office, If he defeats Crenshaw, will have to play a lone hand on this score, The present commission has already gone on record as opposed to this change, and the question arises, can the Incoming governor find authority fusing to put In effect the two-cent fares. A two-cent rate Is In effect now between Marietta and Atlanta, the home of one of the commissioners, and Its efficient secretary. Colonel George Montgomery. This Is due to the trolley line from Atlanta to Marietta. The distance Is seventeen and a halt miles and the fare on both the electric line nnd the Western nnd Atlantic railroad la 39 rents, or even two cents a mile. The new Inter-urban lln* from At lanta to Macon may help solve this problem. The 20-mlle electric line from Augusta to Aiken has a !5-cent fare, or a rent and a quarter per mile.
