> SUSPICION
jOR THE DEATH OP A WOMAN
IN HIS HOTEL.
WAS HINA HER FINGER RINGS
The Charge of Larceny Is Sworn Out
—Now Held as Important Witness
Concerning the Sudden Death of
Mrs. Satchell.
) S. 11. Goldstein, 44 years of age.
of 228 Pulliam street, a merchant, is
lodged at police headquarters on a
charge of larceny, but is being held
without bail in order that four detec
tives, detailed to his case, may inves
tigate the mysterious death on last
Friday morning of Mrs. Bessie Sat
chell. 24 years of age, late of 270
Elliott street, says the Atlanta Jour
nal.
A diamond ring, the property of
another man, who, infatuated with
the woman, allowed her to wear it,
and who now wants the property
back again, has caused the arrest of
Goldstein and the investigation bf
Mrs. Satclu ’ death. The ring has
, not been foil'd as yet, but other jew
elry which C ? woman is alleged to
have been wer.-.ing at the time of her
kdeath, was found in Goldstein’s pos
session, according to the detectives.
Detectives declare that conflicting sta
tements were made by the man in re
gard to his movements just prior to
the sudden death of Mrs. Satchell.
Goldstein was first charged with
larceny and was released under a
S2OO bond. The detectives, however,
in pursuing the investigation of the
larceny case, found, they say, evi
dence to the effect that the woman’s
death was not due to natural causes,
and that Chief Lanford ordered Gold
stein rearrested and he is now held
without hail, pending the conclusion
of the investigation.
Jake Goldberg. proprietor of the
Albion hotel. 251-2 South Pryor St.
was arrested on Tuesday by the detec
tives in order that he might be held
as a witness in the ease. He. how
ever. has now been released under a
S2OO bond.
| B i.en questioned about the case
t nief Lanford consented to give the
following outline of the affair.
“A young man whose name T must
wi uhold for the present complained
io the department that a diamond
ring, valued at S2OO, which he had
given to Airs. Bessie Satchell. had
disappeared. Shortly after her death
Te attempted to regain possession of
Die jewel and found it and other ar
ticles missing.
( AAe received information that
Goldstein had been seen in possession
oi the diamond in question. Goldstein
was arrested and a signet ring known

"as then released when he gave a
"-••O bond. The investigation of the
’Ose was pursued, and it resulted in
his rearrest.

POLITICAL
DOPE SERVED
AS NEWS
TWO BIG DAILIES DOWN IN
MIDDLE AND LOWER GEOR
GIA HAVE MADE A DISCOV
ERY KNOWN TO THE ARGUS
FOR SOME TIME.
For some weeks —perhaps two
■ months—The Daily Argus has been
. bombarded] with a lot of political
, dope edited by a bureau in Atlanta—
. all of which has been taken cum grano
i salis and gently and noislessly drop.
. ped into the peach crate which does
j service in the Argus office as a waste
■basket. Here’s what the Albany
| Daily Herald has to say:
“The Macon Telegraph has evident
-Ily just now made a discovery which
| The Herald made some time ago and
has referred to more than once during
the past few years. The Telegraph
reports its discovery as follows in
the opening paragraph of an editorial
under the caption, ‘A Bi-Political
Machine’:
“ ‘The queerest anomaly yet de
veloped in the world of politics is the
birth of a bi-politieal machine in the
city of Atlanta. This machine grinds
out free dope, alias news, of a polit
ical noture and sends it to practical
ly all of the newspapers in the state.
This machine is promoting the for
j tunes of two candidates, and it pus
them on a framed-up diametrically
opposite platform of one plank each
only, and declares that each has the
one only vital and prominent issue—
more wetness and more dryness; that
one has taken one-half of the voters
and the other the other half. It
boldly declares that its two candi
dates have “monopolized” the cam
paign.’
“The Herald has experienced no
little trouble since Georgia has been
divided into two political factions in
getting an Atlanta news service that
was unainted with the sort of ‘politi
cal dope’ of which the Telegraph com
plains. and in our efforts to obtain a
legitimate news service from the Capi
tal City we have changed from one
‘bureau,’ or correspondent several
times.
“The methods to which the Tele
gaph refers are not new in the At
lanta newnaper field, or. to be more
accurate and just, we perhaps should
say in the circle of those engaged in
serving the news from Atlanta. Much
of the stuff they send out to the pa
pers they serve is either ‘political
dope’ or ‘publicity matter’ that has
no place in a legitimate news service.
We presume that those sending out
such stuff get paid for it, but they
haven’t worked any of it off on The
Herald in some time.”
Commissioners Unite.
’ Marietta. Ga.. Oct. s—The Bartow
county commissioners are touring
Cobb county with the board of this
county, looking over our good roads
which have recently been made. The
object of the visit is to get united
action of the hoards of the two coun
ties s as to build a better highway
from Marietta to Carteesville. It is
urged that no great road tour will
come this way till this is accomplish
ed.
By such co-operation only can we
hope to have continuous good roads
from county to county.
Profitable Crops.
Mr. Huse Longley has raised ten
bushels of corn on eight rows 153 feet
long. He also raised fifty-five big
pumpkins and gathered two bushels
of “goobers” which grew between
these eight corn rows besides the
fodde rand shucks. Which goes to
prove what The Argus has been
claiming all along, that this is the
country for truck growers. A well
organized chamber of commerce could
locate many truck growers by a syste
matic process of advertising.
And it’s what a man has been that
makes him what he is.
THE DALTON ARGUS, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1911.
SHELLS WERE
THROWN ON
TRIPOLI
THE TURKISH FORTS RETURN
INEFFECTIVE FIRE.
ITALIAN SHIPS WERE ACTIVE
The War Seems Now to Have Started
in Earnest and Will Net Be End
ed Until One Side or the Other
Capitulates.
Djerba, Tunis, Oct. s—Tripolis—Tripoli has
been bombarded twice by the Italian
fleet. The first shot was fired short
ly after 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon.
Shelling was resumed early this morn
ing, after a quiet night.
There was a steady, but slow fire
from the warships until dusk last
evening, and shots also came from the
forts in the town. The French
steamer, Tafana, took a delegation
from Deierha to the scene of hos
tilities. Among the party was the
French consul general, M. Leon, who
made several ineffectual attempts to
land. The Tafana was stopped about
10 miles from Tripoli by a boat from
the cruiser Varese, which ordered her
to return, but she remained for more
than an hour, even creeping in clos
er to the blockaded town.
The white buildings of Tripoli
could be plainly seen and the whole
field of operations was unfolded be
fore the watchers. Officers of the
Varese explained that the battle had
been delayed because Admiral Au
brey, commander of the Italian fleet,
had received a message from the
Tripoli garrison requesting another
day’s grace, and the garrison was giv
en an extra few hours.
The battleship Benedetto Brin and
armored cruisers Giuseppe Garibaldi
and Francesco Ferrueio drew up in
line off the harbor. There were no
small craft in the battle line and the
Verese stood off to keep back in
truders.
There was no sign of life in the
city, which appeared deserted, but the
Turkish flag flew from the castle and
forts. The first shots were direct
ed toward Chrachatfi fort and later
Kerkereclie fort was shelled. As the
first shells burst over Tripoli the gar
rison seemed to awake. It returned
the fire with vigor and energy. A
heavy cannonade was kept no,on both
sides for a few minutes and then fir
ing became desultory. So far as
could be seen no warship was hit.

HUDSON
HAS HIS
THE GEORGIA COMMISSIONER
OF AGRICULTURE MAY HAND
IN THE ACCOUNT OF HIS OF
FICIAL STEWARDSHIP TO THE
COMMITTEE TODAY.
Atlanta, Oct. s—Commissioner of
Agriculture T. G. Hudson's report
for the Ault investigating commit
tee is practically ready to be submit
ted to that body. The finishing touch
es are being put on the voluminous
data in the commissioners’ office today
and this afternoon Commissioner
Hudson went over the entire detailed
report.
E. S. Ault, representative from
Polk, author of the resolution which
caused this investigation, is expected
in Atlanta today, and the report pro
bably will be turned over to him.
Chairman Bush has also been notified
that the data called for is in readi
ness. Just when the committee will
be called together and what course
of procedure will obtain is unknown
yet.
Nothing of the contents of the re
port will be given out in the commis
sioner’s office, but it will be turned
over to the committee, which will be
the sole judge of whether or not the
report in detail will be given publici
ty.
Practically since the legislature ad
journed Colonel Huds n has been suf
fering with malaria. He was com
pelled to abandon his tour of the boll
weevil country with The Macon Tele
graph party before the itinerary was
completed because of sickness. For
the past several days he has been at
the home of a friend in Atlanta under
treatment.
Colonel Hudson is not confined to
his bed, but his system is filled with
malaria and it takes a long time to
get it all out. He is improving slow
ly. but is weak from the malaria and
medicines taken.
His office force has worked steadily
on getting the data together since the
Ault committee asked for it. As he
report encompassed several years and
the same office force had to do the
work, along with their regular duties,
it has taken time. Colonel Hudson’s
enforced absence from the office may
have halted the work slightly at times,
but his instructions have been to get
it all together as rapidly as possible.
It is believed that the report is
even stronger in its showing for the
department than was anticipated, al
though nothing is said there concern
ing the work done in this branch of
the state government.
There is a possibility that the re
port is so full and complete in every
detail that the investigating commit
tee will not be compelled to hold ex
tended hearings on the'matter.
Developments are expected tomor
row” when Representative Ault reach
es the city and the reports turned over
to him.

Maine to Be Floated.
Havana. Oct. s—An5 —An examination of
the after section of the battleship
Maine, comprising about one-third the

Our War With Tripoli.
..From the Philadelphia Inquirer...
It is to be feared that most of our
readers have forgotten that 107 years
ago we we*’e at war with Tripoli. That
■ war was signalized by the loss of an
I American frigate, but also by what
Lord Nelson declared to be “the most
bold an daring act of the age.” The
frigate Philadelpria was one of the
vessels built for the war with France,
. which ended almost as soon as it began
, She was on he Mediterranean station
and. under Capt. Bainbrige, went a
ground on an uncharted reef in the
j harbor of Tripoli while chasing a
• prize The officers and men werecap
; ured and confined in dungeons. Thence
Bainbridge managed to send word to
j the Americans to destroy the Phila
: delphia, which had been hauled off and
j manned by the Tripolitans.
' This enterprise was conducted by
] ieut. Stephen Decatur and a voluntee r
■crew. Os course every onevolunteered
i but he picked his men. Among the
officers were James Lawerence, Joseph
Bainbridge, Thomas MacDonough,
Ralph Izard. Charles Morris, and
I others who later became distinguished
Decatur preformed his task of great
danger and difficulty with complete
success. The Philadelphia was cap
tured. but of curse, it was impossible
to take her out. She was set ablaze
and the Americans sailed away with
nly one man wounded. It was a little
later than the bashaw was compelled
to make peace at the cannons mouth
and since then very little interest in
Tripoli, as it lies far outside the range
of our commerce.
A few’ years ago an American artist
who was spending some month in
Tripoli, hired a driver to go down
and bring up some of the wreck of the
Philadelphia, which is plainly visible
in fair weather. Some of the wood is
now” in this country in he shape of pa
per weights and like.

Rainbow a Back Number.
“The rainbow isn’t in it now with
the socks worn by men,” said, be
tween stations, an elevated railroad
guard to his neighbor on the platform
and he contained:
“Just glance in there, will yu, and
I let your eye range along the men’s
I feet. Purple, green yellow blue, red
j gray pink and black socks, and socks
of one color and spots of another and
socks with stripes on ’em and cross
l bars and socks of various colors mix
ed, and I'll bet with all those colors
i that knock heck out of the rainbow
you see one pair there with no color
in ’em plainest of all? Sure it’s a
pair of white socks, the only pair in
the car; and you migh travel here day
after day and not see another pair.
I “They tell me and I can just remem
ber a little of it my self, that there
was a time when men didn’ wear any
thing but white socks. White socks,
and maybe some gray, and then they
came to black, but who’d have thought
they’d came to this? I tell you —”
and there he broke off to yell: “Um

Finds Most Fickle Man.
When Col. William M. Howard, now
member of the Tariff Board, was elec
tioneering for congress one autumn
in bygone days, he struck a backwood
county in Georgia and got very busy
' talking softly to the voters He was
i much concerned about a man named
John, who was now for him, then
against him, and always changeable,
] says the Washington Post.
“What’s the matter with John?”
i
the colonel asked one of his constitu
ents.
“Aw. you can’t tell nothing about
John, colonel,” was the assurance.
“He is the most fickle man you ever
see. Why he’s had religion so many
■times and lost it so many times, and
! been baptized in the creek down here
so often that the bullfrogs know him
every time he’s ’mersed.”
