Mayor Charles A, Sneyder, of Dayton, Ohio, was drowned, A search Is being made for the body today, but up to noon no trace of It had been found. At this point the lake is very deep and It Is feared the body will never be recovered. A party of men and a complete out (It of grappling Irons and hooks was taken to the scene of the accident In a special train. Early In the morning yesterday Snevder and several of his companions went out In a small boat on a lake near camp to get some ducks. The party returned hurriedly .toward evening, re porting that the boat containing the movor had been acddentaly overturned. BY' A quiet, or at least safe, Christmas to far as explosives are concerned, will be Atlanta’s Jot this year. Friday Mayor Woodward will Issue sn order forbidding: the sale of big, dangerous cannon crackers and will put the fireworks people on notice that they had just as well not count on the At lanta trade when placing their orders for this class of goods. Even the tame fireworks will have to be* confined strictly to the home prem ises. Roman candles, skyrockets and even the eat-out-of-your-hand variety of firecrackers will have to be burned up In the back lot. This order of the mayor will be prompted not only*by ordinary caution to prevent the Injury of Atlantans by the firecrackers, but because he thinks that with the unsettled state of affairs now prevailing Atlanta should have as <iulet a holiday season as It Is possible to obtain. GOVERNOR HELL IE FROM TRIP Governor Terrell wax at hla de»k In the i apltol Thursday, he and Mra. Ter rell arriving from Savannah at 7:25 Thursday morning. The governor enjoyed hla ten-daya’ vacation very much, especially the hunt "n St. Catherine's Island, where he bagged a line deer. The party killed fnur deer and the several days on the hlaml they lived largely on venison. Major Wilkins' yacht, the Jesale, rode out the Saturday night storm safely, anchored behind Sti Catherine. The governor stated that the wind was very high, and for a while they were a little anxious. Not until Tuesday did he know of the great anxiety felt for the safety of himself and Mrs. Terrell. A passing 'essel asked for the governor, and “hen naked what waa wanted, said that there were many people In Georgia anxious about him just then. Catherine's Island Is owned by a rich Herman family, and deer are ns numerous on It as rabbits. RIGHT TO RAISE RATES DENIED BY COMMISSION The petition of Charles A. Wicker- sham, president and general manager of the Atlanta and West Point rall- road. to add four miles to Its mileage 4®?* because** toe use of the Atlan ta Belt Line, was denied by the railroad commission Thursday morning. After hearing the protest of the mer chants along the line who would be arrected by the proponed addition of the four miles to the haul and the reasons * 5u °^ c,a l 8 for asking for the same at the session Wednesday, the commls- 81 took the matter under advisement. Thursday morning the commission unanimously declined the petition of President Wickersham. This decision m ®$ n * that no advance In freight rates will be permitted, and the merchants and general shippers along the line will not be called upon to pay from 5 to 15 Per cent above the present tariff under which the road operates. What Road Wantsd. Merchants, business and professional men along the line of the Atlanta and West Point railroad have risen In arms to combat an effort of that road to add four miles to Its mileage table, thue In creasing. freight rates from 5 to 15 per cent. The Initial hearing on this matter took place Wednesday before .the rall- road commission, through the petition of President and General Manager Charles A. Wickersham, seeking the right of the Increased mileage. Citi zens from LaGrange, Hoganavllle, Grantvllle. Moreland, Newnan, Palmet to, Falrburn and other stations along the line were present with attorneys, to enter protest against the proposition. The West Point aaka for this In creased mileage right on the plea that It Is entitled to It through use of the Atlanta Belt Line from Oakland City to Its Inman Park terminals. This dis tance Is about four miles and would consequently Increase the mileage from Atlanta to all points along the line to West Point Just that much. The protest Is based on the ground that no necessity exists for this In crease because the Atlanta and West Point owns trackage rights to Nelson street In the center of the city, and that terminal facilities could be se cured from either the Southern or Central, making the use of the belt en tirely unnecessary. It was brought out that this pro posed mileage would add from & to 15 per cent to the freight rates, the gen eral average being 10 per cent. The attorney for the merchants stated that It was only a clever ruse on the part of the Atlanta and West Point to raise Its freight tariff above that put on it by the commission. He demonstrated that the final effect would be to Increase not only the local ratea, but would add 21 to the cost of every car load from through points. The Increase to ship pers along the route would mean thou sands of dollars tn a year. President Wickersham presented the following table of revised mileage and asked the sanction of the commission to make It effective: East Point 10.61 Terra Cotta 11.47 College Park 12.48 Red Oak ..16.42 Stonewall 19.82 Falrburn .. .. ., 22.90 Palmetto 30.21 Coweta. 34.37 Madras 37.23 Newnan 42.90 Moreland .. 49.27 St. Charles 60.60 Grantvllle ..' 55.03 Trimble 59.35 Hogansvllle .. ..61.78 Amos Spur 66.92 Louise 68.28 Dixie 73.90 Commonvllle 81.97 Gabbetevllle 84.19 West Point 90.20 It was brought out through officials of the road that terminals could prob ably be rented from the Southern or Central, obviating the use of the extra haul, but Inasmuch as the Atlanta and West Point had exclusive use of the belt It preferred to use It to reach the Atlanta terminal. It was also contend ed that road desired revision of Its mileage table to make the charge of 32 for switching cars over the belt line. The protest against this ruse of the road was flgned by practically every merchant along the line. POPE PIUS COLLAPSES AFTER PILGRIMS LEA VE Rome, Italy. Oct. 24.—Thoroughly exhausted as the result of holding sev eral Interviews today, Pope Plus was forced to take to his bed. The pontiff was so greatly exhausted that he had to be practically carried to his room. His collapse came directly after he had received a number of English pil grims against the advice of his physi cian. Dr. Laponnl, his personal doc tor, declared that the Indisposition of the pope Is only temporary, and be lieves he will have recovered by tomor row. “I'LL TAKE MY CHILDREN TOCHAINGANG WITH ME,'' CRIED MOTHER IN COURT The police court room was the scene of a dramatic Incident Thursday morn ing when Mrs. J. F. Haney, of 16 Pit man street, after haring- beon bound over to the state courts by 'Recorder Broyles and with her six email children surrounding her and all crying bitterly, exclaimed: "1 am going to take my children to the chalngang with me.” Judge Broyles quickly Informed the woman she would do no such thing, after which he formally took the chil dren from the custody of the mother and turned them over to Probation Of ficer Gloer with Instructions to make satisfactory disposition of them. Offi cer Gloer later Informed Mrs. Haney the children would either be sent to the Home fqr the Friendless or given to their father. Asked her choice In the matter, she decided In favor of the father. Mrs. Haney was arrested by Mount ed Policemen Dodd and Norman at the Instigation of her husband, : who' de clared to Judge Broyles she was not a proper person to care for her chil dren.

After hearing (he evidence, the re corder bound both Mrs. Haney and Lampkln over to the state courts and fixed their bonds at 2200 each, In de fault of which they went to the Tower. During the trial Mrs. Haney severely roaeted her husband, making numerous counter charges against him. “My husband has sworn nothing but a pack of. lies about me,” Indignantly exclaimed the wife. At another time she turned toward him and shaking her finger In his face, cried out: "You are a low-down mart.” Judge Broyles severely reprimanded both the husband and wife.

At a meeting of the twenty-odd law yer! representing the forty-odd prison era Involved In the affair it was decid ed to try the cases separately, ■ and It thl* Is done the trials will take up a week or two of the court's time. The whole thing has gone over until next Tuesday, on account of the quash ing of the Indictment against the Walker negro on the ground that the means of killing Mr. Heard and the ex act part which each prisoner took was not definitely enough stated. Judge Roan sustained a demurrer argued by J. D. Kilpatrick In the Walker case, alleging several grounds In which the Indictment was defective, but at Its meeting tomorrow the grand Jury will probably remedy the defects In this case and also In the. fifty-nine others mentioned In the same Indlct- men, so as to make valid any sentence which a Jury may find.

Similar action was taken on the report of committee on exhibits. The resolution committee recom mended the adoption of resolution* tending to bring the terms of dealers to a standard term of 60 days' ac ceptance with 2 per cent off If paid In 30 days.
