"The trouble le over. The entire fit
uatlon If paclfl?. I do not anticipate
any further difficulty In preserving or
der."
Colonel Clifford Anderson, command
Inc the Fifth regiment and other atate
troops on duty In Atlanta, made thla
ftatement Wednesday. Hla announce
ment followed the most peaceful night
since the rioting of Saturday.
Atlanta presents more of her old ap
pearance now. The usual crowd la on
the streets, neither larger nor smaller
than before the diorders. Business has
been resumed, shoppers are out again,
and fall hats and clothing have re.
sumed their old place In conversation.
The only difference In the appearance
of the streets Is the sight of a few uni
formed soldiers and the absence of ne
groes.
With the arrest of nearly 100 negroef
at Brownsville Tuesday morning, the
vigilant patrol of the suburban districts
during the day, and the great meeting
declaring for law and order In the af
ternoon, the crisis was passed and no
general outbreak came. Autumn
weather has served to cool hot tern
pers. There has been time for sober
thought. The two opposing elements
have worn themselves out with watch
Ing and waiting. Atlanta fears no more
rioting.
No Ovor-eonfidence.
From the heads of military and civil
authorities come assurances that tlio
worst.Is passed. There Is no feeling of
over-confidence—there will be-no mis
taken withdrawal of guards. But there
will be no offensive movements by
troops or police. AH that'they ask Is
peace. l
Seven companies of soldiery from
other towns, some from 1 the Second
regiment, some* from the Third, arrived
Tuesday night and Wednesday morning
and afford additional protection. They
will relieve the tlretL-troope, which
have been on duty for several days.
The Candler Horse Ouards, Troop F,
arrived Tuesday night, a splendid set of
robust men who attracted attention
wherever they went In the city. The
troop came unmounted and will serve
as Infantry. Coin ponies of the Second
regiment arrived from Jackson.
Bamesvllle and Griffin, under Captains
McKIbben, Nash and Beck, respective
ly. The Third regiment sent Its first
troops to Atlanta Tuesday night. They
were companies from Elberton, Captain
Hurt; Athens, Captain Capps, and
Madison, Captain Pilgrim.
8till in Readinsss.
These companies will be returned
Wednesday to their homes at the order
of the adjutnnt general. All the com
panies of the Fifth regiment will be
kept In their armories during the day
and In readiness to respond to any
calls, A thorough patrol will be main
tained during the night.
Factories, workshops and every bus
iness enterprise which employs labor
ers has opened and every effort Is be
ing mode to Induce white and black
to return to regular occupations and
forget the trouble of the past four
davs. It Is believed that the resumption
of business will go far toward dispell
ing III feeling.
A thorough guard was kept Tuesday
night and reports made to military
headquarters every half hour. No dis
order worth mention took place. The
Pickets had no trouble In preserving
the peace.
Gatling Gun at Brownsville.
The gatllng gun and a battery was
stationed during tl\e night at Browns
ville. the scene of the greatest trouble
on Tuesday night. The greater num
ber of negroes In that vicinity had
been either locked up or had fled to
other sections, however, and the night
»as without Incident. A company was
pouted at Fraser and Richardson
streets; a company at Atlanta Uni
versity, another at Hunnlcutt and
1 erne streets, another at Harris and
Butler streets, and one at Edgewood
end Randolph streets. One company
"as divided Into two platoons and one
Platoon assigned to the state capitol,
" bile the other guarded the city stock
ade.
Each of these details was Instructed
to patrol the territory surrounding Its
post and trover a distance sufficient to
Put it In touch with the next com
pany.
Mounted Patrol Kept.
The Horse Guard kept up a mounted
patrol of the suburban districts from
East Point on the south to the water
works on the north, and from Edge-
wood on the east .to Bellwood and
Howells on the west, circling around
•he entire city.
•'olenel Anderson gave a hearty
commendation to every branch of mil-
"ary and civil service. He said:
"As the officer In command I highly
commend the efficient and willing ser-
v lce of all officers and men In my
command. 1 desire to thank the eher-

MOB LAW ARRAIGNED
BY JUDGE PENDLETON
. CHARGING GRAND JURY
That those who have been guilty of rioting during the last
few days will be severely punished when it comes to dealing with
Judge J. T. Pendleton was indicated by his charge to the- grand
jury Wednesday morning. He told that body to take several
weeks if necessary in making an investigation and to bring the
guilty parties to justice if there wus any possibility of doing so.
“It is your duty,” said the judge, "to investigate this dis
order thoroughly and then act fearlessly. The object of punish
ment is not only to punish the guilty, but to protect the inno
cent. 1 i
“When that lawless mob chased and murdered whatever ne
groes it could find Saturday night, those whose duty it is to en
force the law were disgraced before the civilized world.
“Some one has said that mob law in its last analysis is an
archy, but I tell you in its first analysis it is anarchy. The mob
takes action without waiting for any developments which will
show conclusively the guilt or innocence of the accused. Mob law
is not justifiable under any circumstances. It is never founded
on correct principles and but rarely—very rarely—on correct sen
timent. Criminal assaults are the occasion and not 'the cause of
mobs. None of you was in that riot Saturday night, and the law
less clement doesn’t regard faw and virtue any more than you do.
“Atlanta is on trial before the world, and the safety of the
city and your safety is in the balance. That mob of. Saturday night
went wheresoever it would and wreaked vengeance on whom it
pleased. It is your duty to proclaim that it shall never happen
again and to see, so far as i#in your power, that the guilty are
punished.
“This is no ordinary service you are about to undertake, and
you will not come up to your duty if you treat it as an ordinary
task. You will have to be in session probably weeks and poRsi-
bly a month, looking into this affair. If half a dozen witnesses
can not tell you what you wish to know, a hundred might. If it
is possible for you to find who is responsible, it is your duty to do
it. I know you will act fearlessly on whatever information you
obtain, for your consciences under your oaths will inspire you to
do your duty.” .
COMMITTEE OF TEN

that the people are not In sympathy

ond, to punish with a firm hand those
who participated In the riots.
Lamar Collier, foreman of the West

that he had kept 100 of his men at
work throughout the trouble and that
the men were thankful that he had.

Nixon called the Democratic conven
tlon to order at 2:S2 p. m. and an
nounced that the committee on con
tests was still In session and the cofi
ventlon adjourned until 4:40 o'clock
this evening.
District Attorney Jerome today made
the following public declaration:
"There Is no use In us Democrats
who believe that the party has been
sold and betrayed In holding a rump
convention. It would only weaken the
opposition to Henrat. If the Republi
cans will nominate a derent man at
Saratoga 1 will stump the state for
him.”
When told that Hughes had been
nominated at Saratoga Jerome said:
"'Well, we can support him."
Buffalo, N. Y„ Sept. 24.—Today'

none of them being regularly elected

paring speeches and planning a course
of battle. They will sit aa delegates,

Lewis Nixon has been selected as the

Indications Wednesday nrc that
the United Staten will decide upon
intervention in Cuba within n com
paratively few hours. Convinced
that it can not longer remain in
power, the Palma administration
is about to resign in a body, and,
to prevent anarchy, the United
States will be compelled to take
charge of the island. President
Rooaevelt has ordered that the
army be held in readiness to start
nor Cuba without delay.
Washington, Sept. 25.—President
Roosevelt has directed the army of
the United'States to be In readiness
for active service In Cuba. Telegraph
ic orders were received by the depart
ment this morning trom Oyster Bay
to have an expeditionary force ready
for embarkation for Cuba without loss
|of time.
It will take seven days from the time
actual orders are received by the war
department to send an army to Cuba
before tha troops who are now In read
iness for active duty can be embarked
from this country. This delay, which
Is causing the officials of the war de
partment much concern. Is entirely due
to lack of adequate transportation fa
cilities.
By order of the president the trans
port Sumner. 4n New York harbor, was
kadajr pat In commission. This ship
Is capable of carrying only about 1,500
men. Acting Quartermaster General
Pond today furnished the chief of etuff
with a list showing what commercial
liners on this coast could be chartered
by the government and when they
could be obtained.
The positive statement was made by
authority at the war department today
that armed Intervention In Cuba would
mean that every aoldler of the regular
army now stationed In the United
States would have to be used. In other
words, tha war department la prepar

BANK LOOTER PLEADS
GUILTY AND IS GIVEN
A FEW YEARS IN PEN
Chicago, Sept. 24.—Paul O. Stenaland, who wrecked the Milwaukee
Avenue State Bank, of this city, while Its president and then lied to Tan
gier, Morocco, where he was captured and brought back to the United
States, pleaded guilty before Judge Kersten today and will be sentenced
to from one to fourteen years In the penitentiary.
It is expected that he will be In Joliet prison this evening.
New disclosures of the greatest Importance were made by Stenaland
to Assistant State’s Attorney Olsen. The bafiker broke down and went
several times during the cross-examination. It Is said stenaland laid the
origin of the alleged forgerlee of notes to an Italian clerk In the hank, and
that at the time they aggregated 1200,000. These forgeries were wiped out
by the Issue of others by a' second forgery. The Italian was charged with
working In conspiracy jflth Cashier Herlng.
An assistant from Q»" state's attorney office boarded the train at Cleve
land with the questionable notes that have been unearthed. They were
examined In detail by Stenaland and some of them pronounced valid, not
withstanding the statement of the makers that their signatures bad been
forged. Stensland exonerated the directors of participation In the looting
of the bank and placed all the blame on Cashier Herlng, Former Teller
Frantxen and their partners.
