bottlers battle over
attack on union labor
President Hugo Calls
Union Supporters
Cowards.
CONVENTION REFUSES
T 0 PUBLISH ADDRESS
Walter Stapleton and Childs
Carr Stand Up for Un
ions and Answer
Hugo.
A red hot time developed In the Anal
business session of the American Bot
tlers' Protective Association convention
in the Kimball house Wednesday.
Unionism and its relations to the bot
tlers brought on a stormy meeting, and
some caloric utterances resulted. Pres
ident Hugo deserted the chair to de
fend his address of Tuesday, In which
he made some caustic remarks about
unionism
-A man who will employ only union
labor Is a traitor to his country. If
he signs a contract to do so he Is both
a coward and a fool.*'
He made a savage attack on Samuel
Gompers, president of the Federation
of Labor, and said that Gompers’ threat
to depose forty congressmen who had
gone contrary to his demands, was a
big bluff, nnd that the whole business
was a game of four-flushing.
George W. Tucker, of Philadelphia,
brought on the storm, and after he had
done so. stood squarely In the brunt
of It. Tuesday D. L. V. Moffet, of Bos
ton. moved to have copies of the presi
dent's address printed and sent out to
bottlers all over the country The mo
tion prevailed.
Moved to Rescind,
sleeping a night over it, however,
seemed to have changed the viewpoint
of many of the delegates. The attack
on unionism made them shy of the
question. Then Mr. Tucker moved to
rescind the action.
Up came Walter Stapleton, of
Brldegeport, Conn., in a rousing de
nunciation of the attack on the unions,
and said that It was unwarranted and
uncalled for. He said that the small
bottlers got their patronage from union
men and their families, and a man
would be a fool to Indorse anything'
that took the bread from his own and
his children’s mouths.
In this view he received the support
of Charles Carr, while pandemonium
turned loose In the hall. Throughout
the attack President Hugo sat quietly,
but his Jaw drew down In an aggres-
site manner, and the glint of battle
enroe Jnlo his eyes. Then he took the
floor:
Hugo Spoke Plainly.
’’You come here under the plea that
you didn't want my address printed
because It would cost $400 to do so.
was prepared to take the wind out of
your sails by offering to pay the ex
pense of It out of my own pocket. But
I knew your plea was not the truth,
and that your objection lay much
deeper than that."
Turning to Mr. Stapleton, he said:
"You may depend on union men for
your trade.”
"I do,” was the sharp retort.
' Yes, but you are not this whole
convention."
"Maybe not, but I am as much of It
as you," came the reply.
President Hugo then stated that the
bottlers were squarely up agalnBt this
union question, and that It was nothing
hut arrant cowardice to dodge It now.
He said that only one man In fourteen
belonged to the unions,
"It Is not a question of honoring me
by printing that speech, but whether
you have manhood enough to stand by
the principles I set forth In It. Are you
going to lay down like a set of whipped
curs? If you don't stand to me I brand
every man voting to rescind as a cow-
ard—the most contemptible term ap
plicable to man."
"Alamo Greets Bunker Hill.”
As he concluded President Lazenbee,
of the Texas bottlers, came forward
and shook his hand:
"That’s the stuff. The Alamo greets
Bunker Hill.”
Hut President Hugo lost his light,
and the convention voted to rescind.
Afterwards President Hugo said he
would have the speech printed and
sent out at hie own expense.
The convention was tardy In getting
down to business Wednesday^. Sched
uled to begin Work at 10. it was 11
" clock before the gavel fell. The. see-
smn up to the clash on the union ques
tion was decorous. There were reports
of committees covering purely class Iz-

Merchants Meet
Receive Report of
Committee.
About 200 striking machinists gath
ered In Federation hall, in North For
syth street, Wednesday morning to re
ceive the reports of the committee ap
pointed at the meeting Tuesday.
No change has been reported In the
strike situation at the shops of the
Southern road. The big buildings have
closed down and not a wheel has turned
since Monday. The machinists claim
that an unsuccessful attempt was made
Tuesday to supplant the union men
with strike-breakers, but the pickets
persuaded the non-union men not to
interfere, and they left the vicinity.
There Is not the slightest Indication
of any trouble, as the strikers are or
derly, and none but the pickets remain
about the vicinity of the shops. Ex
cept for the newspaper reports, none
but those directly affected by the strike
would know that the machinists had
walked out.
F. W. McCabe, business manager for
the machinists' union, said Wednesday
morning that there were no develop
ments In the situation.
"There has been no change In the
strike," said he, "which would bear di
rectly or Indirectly on the situation.
The committees are all out yet and
nothing will be known until they make
full reports. The machinists will hold
meetings in the Federation hall every
day as long as the strike lasts.”
WASHINGTON - "MACHINISTS
EXPECT A SETTLEMENT.
Washington, Oct. 10.—The strike sit
uation among machinists of the South
ern railway was unchanged at a late
hour last night. The machinists main
tain a Arm stand and declare that they
will not return to work unless the com
pany accedes to their demands for an
Increase of 2 cents an hour and a 0-
hour day.
A. S. Stewart, assistant superintend
ent, was In continual conference yes
terday with W. W. Finlay, second vice
president of the railway, and with H.
D. Spencer, • general manager. No
statement could be obtained from the
company’s officials.
Inasmuch as the mechanical equip
ment of the company Is said to £e In
need of much repair, and as It Is dlffl--
cult to secure machinists, the impres
sion prevails among the machinists
that an early,settlement will be the
result of the walkout.

The big gates of the Georgia state
fair swung open Wednesday morning
at 10 o'clock and the first day of the
home-coming of Georgia-born was on
to continue until October 2U.
A chilly October wind made over
coats comfortable, but failed to pre
vent‘the throngs of visitors from going
out to the grounds to Inspect the ex
hibits In the main hall and to seek
amusement on the midway.
The "ballyhoos" unlimbered their
husky voices and after noon the mid
way began to wake up and take on a
business-like appearance. Nearly all
of these attractions have brass bands
and the noise made things look Inter
esting.
Several prominent Georgians were on
the grounds early In the day. Gov
ernor Terrell came out shortly after
noon and looked over the exhibits of
Georgia products and expressed him
self as being gratified at the showing
made by his state. C. S. Barrett, of
Atwater, Ga., president of the National
Farmers' Union, and S. P. Duckworth,
president of the Georgia Farmers'
Union, were also In attendance.
Jamestown Representative.
Another visitor was Eastman O. Cur-
rey, of the department of publicity,
representing the Jamestown Exposi
tion. Mr. Currey learned that quite a
number of exhibits how at the fair
would be transferred to the state and
would be Included In the Georgia ex
hibit at the Jamestown Exposition.
The superintendents of the Georgia
Agricultural Society were In charge of

WINTRY WEATHER MAKES
ATLANTA STEP LIVELY
"Brr—, gee, It’s cold!”
"Where did I leave 'my overcoat last spring? Where'd I put my
gloves?"
"Have you ordered that ton of coal? Why didn't you? And wq need
some weather strips on that north window."
Atlanta awoke Wednesday morning to greet a real winter day. Half
the city shivered on Its way uptown. There was a display of last sea
son's overcoats and an atmosijhere of mothballs and camphor.
Business at the soda fountains was dull Wednesday morning. The
few druggists who had read the foreqast and prepared hot chocolate and
other winter drinks were In luck, but the Ice bills were smaller than
for many months.
It was almost freezing weather. At the bureau the official record
showed 38 degrees between 6 nnd 7 o'clock, only 8 degrees above freez
ing point.
But it will take only a few hours for Atlanta to get used to It. The
chilly weather will put more vigor Into the city, the snappy breezes that
whistle around the'corners will merely make people step livelier. The
state fair will draw Just as big a crowd and unless the cold Is accompan
ied by high winds the airship will sail as announced.
LAWS HURTFUL TO JEW8
ARE TO BE INVESTIGATED.
Paris. Oct. 10.—The St. Petersburg
correspondent of The Journal has had
an Interview with Premier Stolypln In
the course of which the Russian pre
mier said:
"To give to the Jews the right to
buy land and circulate freely through
out Russia would In practice create a
very serious state of affairs, and for
the ministry alone to reach a decision
In this mattei; would be regarded by
the people as a usurpation of their
rights."
' The premier said all laws hurtful to
the Jews would be attentively exam
ined by the ministerial council, which
desired to treat the Jews with Justice.
The Jews, said M. Stolypln. would In
the end appreciate these efforts.
JEWS AT ODESSA HIDE
IN FEAR OF THEIR LIVE8.
Odessa, Oct. 10.—Jews In this city
were In a state of terror last night as
a result of a mob of 300 rushing
through the streets crying, "Death to
the Jews!" "Death to the rebels!” All
shops were closed as soon as the mob
appeared and the Jews sought hiding
places.
The demonstration followed a speech
of President Dubrovln, of the Union of
Russian People, who, on the. eve of his
departure for Kiev, said:
“The holy Russian cause Is the ex
termination ofrebels. Clear the Russian
soli of them. Go ahead, brothers; death
to the rebels'and Jews!"

overcoat, which was buttoned up to the chin. Asked if he would pitch this

"That was the understanding ten minutes ago In the club house. Not

day’s storm on the lakes.
When the Foster struck In the dark

crew seemed Inevitable. Ed Jacobson,
a sailor, taking a desperate chance that
only seemed inviting death, with a

rough sea and swnm for the shore,
which he reached after a desperate
battle with the waves. A breeches buoy
was rigged up and the remaining mem

Fifty-seven new members were en
rolled In the Municipal Ownership
Leaguo Tuesday afternoon and Wed
nesday morning.
These fifty-seven men were represen
tatives of many classes. They are the
men who make up a city like Atlanta,
men who work with their heads and
with their hands, men who have accu
mulated fortunes, men who have noth
ing but their weekly wage.
There are men irt the league who
think as they work, who have studied
the problems that face a modern city
who have watched the encroachment*
of growing corporation* upon the prop
erty of the public. They have watched
these corporations pile up enormous
profits from that which should belong
to the people of the city. They have
seen other cities take over the public
utilities which have made fortunes for
Individuals and turn them to a source
af revenue Which swelled the clt> a
treasury and reduced rates of taxation.
The Municipal League Is growing.
The call of The Georgian for men who
wish to see Atlanta take her great mo
nopolies from private hands, for men
who are. willing to work for It and vote
for It, Is being answered every dav.
Applications for membership In tlie
leaguo nrc coming fast, and they will
continue to come until a strength la
represented which will mean a victory
Ip an election.
What the League Stands For.
The league stands for the municipal
ownership of a gas and electric light
ing plant for the near future. It leaves
the question of street car ownership to
a later day, when the success of the
first movement Is proven. But many
supporters of the movement are com
ing out boldly now and crying for a
street car system to be owned by At
lanta. „
Dr. R. R. Klme, president of the At
lanta Sociological Society, Is an ardent
Indorser of the municipal ownership
movement. The society embraces If
Its membership the thinking men of
Atlanta, men who ran look ahead, who
meet monthly to discuss the problems
of the day. When he signed his appli
cation for membership In the league
Dr. Klme said:
"The Municipal Ownership League
and The Atlanta Georgian have mv
best wishes for success. .Municipal
ownership Is coming. It must come."
"Push Movement Now.”
.7. 8. Price, of 310 Spring street, man
ager of a big publishing company,
urges action before the present char
ters of the gas and electric companies
are extended. He said;
"I most heartily Indorse the move
ment and trust that It will not be long
before you have sufficient member■.<
listed to have a rousing meeting and
get to business. There Is every reason
for pushing the movement right now.
and In the meantime we should see to
It that no netv charter Is granted the
present gas company or electric light
company. If, ns the present company
claims, they have a 'permanent' char
ter, why are they so earnestly seeking
to renew It? If their charter was
granted for a certain period of years,
how can It be permanent? In other
words, they now are seeking from
council that which they claim already
to possess.
"These corporation Interests have s
much more vital hold upon this city
than many of us realize. They practi
cally run the city government; they
have their representative* from th»
highest office down, and now have
them elected to fill the next term. If
something Is not done soon this gas
company will soon have a renew , cl
charter, nnd will have got a new grip
upon the city. The waterworks Is a
standing menace to their purposes, and
a living demonstration of tvbat the city
can do; for this reason, we remember
It has not been many months since they
endeavored to have It sold to a private
stock company. Why? We know why.
