BUYING OF SHIP FOR
UNPARALLELED VOYAGE
Landon Thomas Among Four Hundred who Scrambled Out of
Genoa. $200,000 Paid for Use of Liner. Each Passen
ger Paid $250 in Gold Leaving a Deficit of $40,000. Will
Be Paid and “Money Well Spent.”
New York.—Four hundred mors
Aerlcans who scrambled out of Eu
rope because of the war reached New
York on the tlallan liner Principe dl
Udine, from Genoa. The venae! was
specially chartered for the trip by R.
A. C. Smith, dock commissioner of
New York. Among the passengers
were Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler,
president of Columbia University, and
family, and Mr. and Mrs. Frederick
W. Vanderbilt.
The Udine reached quarantine late
last night followed by the Holland-
Atnerlcan line steamer Noordam, from
Rotterdam. Count Von Bernstorff,
German ambassador to the United
Btates, was among the Noordam’s
passengers.
Paid $200,000.
Two hundred thousand dollars was
paid the Lloyd Sabaudo Company at
Genoa for the use ut the Principe dl
Undine. Each passenger paid $250
gold as a minimum for first cabin ac
commodations, leaving a deficit of
about S4OO which will be met by the
committee which arranged the trip.
In a statement issued at New York
today the committee says "the money
was well spent.”
It was suggested In a etatement, Is
sued by passengers that a special
committee should confer with repre
sentatives of the slate department "to
submit trustworthy Information on
the critical financial and sanitary sit
uation of fellow citizens in southern
Europe.” This latter was signed,
among others, by Henry Burnett,
Isiulsville, Ky.; Theodore W. Noyes,
Washington; the Rev. Edward Kond
thaler, North Carolina and Landon
Thomas, Augusta, (!a.
Came Alangside.
The Undine saw no warships until
last Thursday afternoon when a Brit
ish auxiliary cruiser, believed to be
the former Cunard liner Caronia, came
alongside. After looking the liner
over and ascertaining that she flew
the neutral Italian flag the cruiser
withdrew.
The voyage of the Undine and the
circumstances which preceded It are
perhaps without parallel. It was a
case 'M buying a ship, as It were, to
get out of Europe. Greatest difficulty
was experienced In arranging the fi
nancial details at Genoa, for while
there were millions represented among
Ihe Americans in the enterprise, get-
I ting cash was quite another matter.

confusion ns to the date upon which
this meeting was set hy the executive

‘‘Mr. Slaton's contention that he Is
entitled to the nomination because of
his microscopic lead In delegates and
popular votes. Is amusing." he re
marked. "The county unit system,
which he has so loudly favored, seems
to have caught him In Its meshes.
"As to that, figures show that 140,-

Lengthy Debate Over Senator
Hoke Smith’s Measure -Many
Object While Others Seek
to Broaden.
ANSWER TO CHRONICLE’S ARGU
MENT AND GOVERNOR
SLATON’S CLAIM.
The whole canvass was carried on
with the almost universal understand
ing of Hardwick’s and Felder’s
friends and supporters that If Slaton
failed to win on the county unit plan
—and It was so charged by Slaton’s
supporters—that the supporters of
Hardwick and Felder would then
unite and elect either Hardwick or
Felder. This was so universal that
no one should attempt to dispute it,
and as they have the majority of both
the popular vote as well as the con
vention vote, why should time and ink
he wasted to argue it or set up a claim
for the governor when he Is In a min
ority, even after giving him all of
Huthens' supporters.
Below I give you the popular vote
as shown by the Chronicle.
Yours truly.
CHAB. ESTES.

In Georgia and supporting the na
tional administration, have received
almost 10,000 votes as against Mr.
Slaton's 69,000. We have 211 dele
gates against his 141. It does not
take a very profound mathematician
to figure out the results.
"Without a doubt the progressiva
wing of our party will organize and
control the Macon convention, elect
two Wilson democrats as senators and
let Mr. Slaton serve out the balance
of his term as governor.”
Tile counties are rapidly naming
delegates to the Macon convention and
from reports already received the
great majority of them will be Hard
wick men. The rule provides that
they he named from the friends of
the successful candidates for governor,
and as the gubernatorial candidate
will be chosen without a contest It
makes small difference to him who
are the delegates However, Judge
Harris has asked that the Bibb dele
gation be made up of men who voted
for him and for Felder, another Bibb
county man.
Wise politicians here assert that
Governor Slaton has small chance in
the convention, which will largely be
made up of Hardwick and Felder men,
and that certainly one of these two
will be chosen senator. None seems
to think It likely that Mr. Felder, who
ran third, will be the choice, and moet
of them think that Hardwick will win
on the second or third ballot.
