As straws show the direction
of the wind, so do brick and mor
tar the direction of a city's
growth.
Take a trip out Spring, West
Peachtree, Peachtree, Juniper,
Piedmont and Myrtle Streets, and
count the new houses and those
building, and the vacant lots, and
see where these improvements
lead to.
It is fashionable to own a
home beyond the noise, dirt and
smoke of the center of the city.
Vacant north-side lots are
getting scarce.
Attend Tuesday's auction
sale of ANSLEY PARK LOTS
and buy one at your own price,
while you can.
No lots in Atlanta offer the
same advantages for homes, or
the same prospect for rapid en

he will be named by the several states.

Havana, Cuba, Sept. 14.—The revo
lution has {alien Into secondary place
before the fact that American blue
jackets, armed for action and with
machine guns, are on the scene. •
The bluejackets are camped In the
plaza, which faces the palace near the
water front. The Denver can be seen
from the palace. They have a 3-inch
held piece and two Colt machine guns,
which can ahoot 300 shots a minute.
Under order* from Washington,
portion of the men went Aack to the
ship, but a heavy legation guard wa*
still kept on shore. It will be Impossl
ble for the rebels, even if they entered
the city, to accomplish anything of Im
portance without coming In conflict
with the Yankee sailors. They are not
likely to do this under any circum
stances.
Rebels Are in Control.
The rebels appear to be In complete
control of the provinces of Plnar del
Rio, Havana and Santa Clara. A sym
pathizer with the revolution, who ap
parently Is well Informed, estimates
that there are at least 15,000 rebels In
the Held In the three provinces. A
high government official admits that
the situation Is most serious, and adds
that the revolutlonfeta have pdt an end
to the republic In an Insane spirit of
revenge".
fie also states that the Hautey Sugar
Mill at Santo Domingo, Santa Clara
province, has been destroyed by the In
surgents, who are about to destroy the
famous Constada Sugar Mill, which Is
supposed to be valued at 32,000,000. The
Hautey mill was owned by Mr. O. Ra-
beu, an American of Cuban descent.
His son states that the value of the
mill was more than 32,000,000 and that
$500,000 was spent for machinery this
year.
Property le Destroyed.
Tho Constocla property belongs to
on American company. It Is also re
ported that Home Guero and the San
Oues estates have been destroyed by
Guzman and his rebel forces. Since It
was stated that Pino Guerra had 8,000
men marching on Havana, this explains
tho landing of the ’ Afnerlcans. The
government appears to fear Its ability
to deal with the situation.
Property owners are greatly alarmed.
The great question Is how to avoid the
wanton destruction of property I
revolutionists. Unless the United !
takes over the Administration of af
fairs this destruction may continue to
a large extent. It Is safe to say that
all property owners look to the United
States as their only hope of aatvatlon.
BEGGING FOR FORGIVENESS
MURDERER CONFESSES ALL
BEFORE BIG CONVENTION
New York. Sept. 14.—Wildly appeal
ing to God to forgive him for his
sins, Henry Dean, for whom the police
had been searching for months, threw
himself on his knees before 350 star
tled delegates to the Richmond county
prohibition convention at Mariners
harbor, confessed that he was a mur
derer; that he had killed an Innocent
man; had shot down his mother-in-
law, an officer of the law and had
beaten his wife and children.
Dean was recognized by men In the
convention, and when they realized the
confession was not the ravings of an
Insane man, there waa a rush toward
him to take him In charge at once. Not
until he had told his whole etory did
the old fear of arrest return to Dean
before he waa Anally overpowered and
taken a prisoner to the West Brighton
station.
ROOT FOR GOVERNOR
AND ALSO PRESIDENT
New York. Sept. 14.—Chairman Odell,
of the Republican state committee,
came out today for Ellhu Root for
governor.
"If he should be nominated and
elected governor this year, would he
likely be nominated for president In
1308?” was asked.
"Yes. I think that very probable, and
I should certainly support him for
nomlnatlAand election.” >

Havana, Cuba, Sept. 14.—A report
reached here today to the effect that,
the rebele had taken Clenfuegos and
that the American cruiser Marietta had
landed a force of bluejacket! there to
protect foreign property. The report
lack! confirmation.
Commander Colwell, of the Denver,
was visited last night by an emissary
of Senator Zayeas, the Liberal leader,
who hitherto hat escaped arrest, and of
General Joyneaa del Castillo, command
er of the revolutionary forces In the
province of Havana. The emlesary
stated that If Commander Colwell
would guarantee Scnors Zayeas and
Castillo a fair trial, they and all their
revolutionary forces In the field would
surrender to him.
Commander Colwell replied that he
was not In Cuba for the purpose of In
tervening, but merely to protect Amer
ican Interests. Commander Colwell
subsequently saw President Palma, to
horn he communicated the proposals.
He said that If President Palma would
obtain the consent of the Washington
government, he would act In the mat
ter.
Senor Palma expressed himself as
very much pleased, and said he would
certainly ask Washington- to authorize
Commander Colwell to accept the sur-
render of the rebels. Commander Col-
ell later Informed the emissary of the
attitude of the president.
Railway Traffic 8tcppsd.
The Western railroad, throughout Its
whole extent of 125 miles, Is paralyzed.
The weekly traffic r.nd passenger re
ceipts average $23,000. Today they wen-
nothing, owing to breaks In the line
which though not serious are sufficient
fo prevent traffic, as the revolutionists
will not nllow repairs to be made. Traf
fic on the United railways has been
stopped, owing to the track having
been tom up at Rlcdon by the rebels.

Cincinnati, Sept. 14.—Every one of

Bryan.
He returned thanks for his reception
In the city. Launching Into his ad
dress, he said that conditions were
growing better, and that an application
to the conscience of the people would
bring response. He asserted that In
every community more people did not
steal because of their conscience than
for fear of the law. He refused to
take credit because principles he ad
vocated had grown more popular.
"The Democratic Idea la larger than

Lincoln. Nebr., Sept. 14.—In a state
ment, which was given out last night,
W. J. Bryan replies to the recent pub
lic statement of Roger C. Sullivan,
Democratic national committeeman
from Illinois, who declared that cer
tain charges by Mr. Bryan were false.
Mr. Bryan says he will not permit the
discussion to be lowered to the level of
a personal controversy, Mr. Sullivan,
he declares, is holding his place In the
national committee by unfair means.j
, Continuing, the etatement cays:
"If Mr. Sullivan disputes the asser
tion that. a considerable majority of
the delegates to the Springfield con-,
ventlon were oppoeed to him, he can
fight the question out with the major
ity league of llllnole, which will doubt
less accommodate him.
"As Mr. Bryan has hot asked for a
nomination and has not announced that
he will be a candidate, he will not sub
mit the question whether he should be
a candidate to Mr. Sullivan or lo any
body of persons less numerous than the
members of the Democratic party of
the United States. Neither can the
question as to whether Mr. Sullivan
should be re-elected to the national
committee be submitted to the mem
bers of a convention already adjourned.
“The question > muit be submitted
to the Democrats of Illinois when they
meet to select delegates to the next
national convention, and Mr. Sullivan
will not be permitted to dodge the Issue
that Is raised against him. He Is of
ficially connected with a favor-seek
lng, franchise-holding corporation and
the question Is whether the Democratic!
organization should be paralyzed by
the Influence of men whose private In
terests make it Impossible for them to
be guardians of the public.
"Mr. Bryan will urge the Democratic
party to put Itself In a posltlonvwhere
It ran fight boldly and persistently for
the regulation of such corporations as
are not monopolistic and for the pre
vention of any private monopoly what
ever. To this end the organization
muht be composed of men who are free
set for the public and not tied by,
personal Interests to corporations which
are seeking favors at the public's ex
pense."
