TO fIGT M ON ANTI-TRUSTS i • Senator Williams Puts Pres ident's Speech Yesterday to Editors on Record. Ready For the Fight. Washington.—-“ We're ready for the fight and we are going to fight until we put this trust legislation through if i.t takes ail summer,” declared Sena tor Williams of Mississippi today in the senate when the federal trade com mission hill, one of the administra tion anti-trust measures, came up for consideration. Senator Williams de fended President Wilson’s demand that congress remain in session until the anti-trust program is completed. “We democrats meant what we said, and we are going to stay here and prove to the country we meant what we said, when we promised to take the three great monsters that threaten the economic competition by the throat. We did not act like fools in the tariff matter, we did not act like fools in the currency matter, and we are not going to act like fools In this matter. We are going- to be conservatively con structive. We have legislated to pre vent exploitation through tariff taxa tion and to prevent exploitation through the money trust, now we are about to legislate to prevent exploita tion by the industrial trustsf.” The senator put in Ihe record Pres ident Wilson’s speech yesterday to the Virginia editors. “One reason we are going to do this thing,” he said, “is because we have a brave and worthy captain, who knows | how to do tilings and who knows how to influence other people to help him do things." WfllEfl POURING IN AWOKE HIM Evidence Given Concerning' Closing of Compartments After Crash of the Empress of Ireland. Quebec At the Empress o£ Ireland wreck investigation today the attor ney for the Canadian Pacific Railway obtained permission to read the evi dence from three pasensers bearing on the question of the closing of the com partment doors and port holes of the Empress.

Testimony All In. Quebec —The decision of the com mission which since June 16 has been O’DOWD MATTER OP 111 SUPERIOR COURT; CITY SEEKS AN INJONCTION Most Interesting Case is Being Tried—Grows Out of the Condemnation of O’Dowd Property on 9th Street—Want Injunction Until Legislature Passes Act Authorizing Con demnation For Easement. The injunction proceedings brought by the city of Augusta against' M. O'Dowd Hons & Company to prevent the latter from taking possession ot property on Ninth street, but which was condemned by the city under an act of the legislature, which act has been declared unconstitutional, was be gun in the superior court today. The C. & W C. railway freight tormina's now occupy the land in dispute. It will he recalled that the city con demned the property for the C. & W. C. for levee purposes because the railway ireight terminals were forced from Bay street bcause of the levee running on that street and the city had to provide another place for tho terminals. The city asking the court for a restraining order to prevent the O'Dowds from taking the property tin til an act now pending can be passed by the legislature allowing the con demnation for an easement, instead of in fee simple. The case is one of the most inter esting and most important in which the city ot Augusta has been concern ed in many years, and it is learned that it contains many important legal ques tions. A large array of attorneys faced his honor today when the preceding!) were begun. There were Messrs. I'- 11. Grier, of Greenwood, S. C„ general counsel for the Cahrlenton and West ern Carolina railway; VV. K. Miller and C. Henry Cohen, counsel for the rail way and city, seated at one table, and at another, representing the O’Dowd.-, were Messrs Hamilton Phinizy ar.d J. C. C. Black, Jr,, and Major J. C. C. Blaek. Other Interested parties in til* court were Mr. Joe O'Dowd, Mr. Al bert Anderson, superintendent of the C. fc VV. C. railway; Mr. A. H. Porter, road engineer of the C. & VV. C„ May or L C. Hayne, lion. Thos, Barrett, chairman of the Flood Commission; Messrs Fred Pope, R, Roy Goodwin 11. 8. Gray, members of the Flood Comntsslon and Mr. J. P. Mulncrln, arbitrator of the O'Dowds In the re cent condemnation proceedings. Preliminary Discussions. There was a great deal of prelimi nary discussion on the part of counsel on both sides, and finally the first point In the procedings was settled by mu tual agreement between Mr. Cohen and Mr. Phinizy, to wit; that It was tho C. & VV. C. railway that,gave to the O'Dowds SII,OOO for certain por tion of the latter's property under a contract with the city, and not the city that gave it It went down in the court record that the money cam# from the C. * VV. C. railway under "a” contract with the city Instead of under ii particular contract, as, ac cording to Mr. Cohen, had h«n ad mitted by the city u I the while. Next, Mr. Cohen recited a history CHE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA, GA- investigating the sinking of the steam ship Empress of Ireland, with the loss of more than a thousand lives, is ex pected in about two weeks.

HEADING OF THE BRIGHT THINGS. “You and Jinx are lifelong friends, ate you not?” “We have been, hut I am going to en gineer s quarrel with him pretty hooh.” “Engineer a quarrel with him?" “Yes, Ills first baby will soon be able to talk.” of the case going into considerable length ;ind detail He began in 1908, at the time of the flood, telling of tho creation of the Fldod Commission; on tho necessary bills enacted In 1909 by the Georgia legislature, which pro vided for Augusta to build a levee for the purpose of flood protection, to is sue $1,000,000 worth of bonds for the levee, and to condemn such property along the river hank as would he needed for the construction of the levee.. He told of Ihe city trying to buy the O'Dowd property, which was only a small portion of the stretch from Hawk’s Gulley to Ninth street which was needed for the levee and that af ter the O'Dowd'B didn’t agree to sell the city condemned the property; that the O’Dowds brought suit against the city for condemning their property on the grounds that the net of the legis lature, under which the property was condemned, was unconstitutional; that after It was taken to the supreme court here, It was taken to the su preme court of Georgia, where the lower court's decision was reversed He said that the city has given notice to the O'Dowds that the property will he condemned again as soon as the legislature passes an act that Is now pending, and that the city wishes to enjoin the O'Dowds from taking pos session of this property until the act pending Is made a law. Mr Phinizy’s Statement. Mr. Phinizy made a rather lengthy statement from the standpoint of the O'Dowds, and gave also some of the history of the case, bringing out such points as were In their favor, lie said that the o”Dowds were public spirited citizens and were heartily In sympathy with the building of the levee to protect Augusta from floods, hut that he was of the opinion that It it was not for this purpose the city was attempting to enjoin the O’Dowds, but to satisfy the C. & W. C. railway. He mentioned the contract entered In to botwen the C. & VV. C. and the cltj, which provided for the latter paylrjg to the railway company $100,090 f«!r the porperty they would need for I heir tracks which they removed for the city for levee purposes, but that all cost over SIOO,OOO should be paid by the C. & W. ('. railway. Here counsel for the O'Dowds asked that the C. At VV. (!. railway, whose counsel were present, he made by the court a party to the present litigation. At 1:30 o'clock Judge Hammond, at the request of counsel for the C. and W. C, allowed them thtrtv minutes In which to prepare to offer their pleadings to be made a party to tho litigation, as they had said they de sired to be. It was later agreed among the par ties In the case that the proceeding* bo continued till Monday, July 6th.
