CONCERNING the Executive Conn
mittee.
Atlanta, Sept. 5.-Judge George #.
Gober of Marietta was tonight APP
pointed by Gov. Gambler justice of the
Supreme Court to succeed Justice Hal.
T. Lewis until another justice can be
elected by the people and qualified.
Judge Gober will not be a candidate
for election to the office by the peo-
pie. Whether he will accept the APP
pointment has not been definitely
stated, though it is believed he will
do so.
In going on the Supreme bench for
less than two months, Judge Gober
will give up a four-year term as judge
of the Blue Ridge Circuit, for which
he was nominated in the recent Dem
ocratic primary, and would have been
elected on Oct. l.. He has already
served two terms on the bench of the
Blue Ridge Circuit.
1t is confidently expected that Hon.
Hiram p. Bell of Forsyth, present
senator from the Thirty-ninth district,
will be appointed to succeed Judge Co
Der in the Blue Ridge Circuit. The
appointment, when made, will be for
two years.
Chairman f. T. Brown of the State
Democratic Executive Committee to-
day called a meeting of the committee
for next Monday in the Kimball House
ball room to consider the matter of
naming Democratic candidate to sue
coed Justice Lewis. Expressions Sc
cured from many of the thirty nine
members as to what should be done
vary considerably. Some want a prim-
airy, so that the new justice shall be
named strictly by the party. Others
favor letting the matter go to the gem
eral election, without naming a candi-
date. 1t Is generally believed this lat
ter course will be adopted Some 9TH
ers favor nomination being made by
the committee.
AT present there are only two can

Fulton. Judge Gambler said to-day he
had never been a candidate for the

ON OIL AS A FUEL.
Report Made by Lieut.. WincheH to
the Navy Department.

Washington, Sept. 5.-The report of
Lieut.. Ward Winchell. U. S. N, the ex-
pert detailed by the Navy Department
to observe the installation and eff
cheney of the oil fuel system, as fitted
to the Oceanic Steamship Company's
steamer Mariposa, has been received at
the Navy Department.
The report contains matter of great
value to the shipping and naval world
The report says the Mariposa's gross
displacement was $3.50 tons and
her average horsepower, with oil,
about 2,4S1, giving her daily aver
age of 354 knots and mean speed of
1858, with 278 barrels of oil per day.
This was 80 per cent. less in weight
than would be required of coal, for
one and a half pounds Of oil sufficed
to produce a horsepower.
An important advantage IN the oil
fuel was the reduction Of the engine
room force from 80 10 20 men. The ship
used only twelve OF her eighteen fur
naces, burning crude oil In two bur-
ners in each furnace by means of an
air compressor Of capacity OF 1000
cubic feet per minute at 30 pounds
pressure. All the burners were not
uged except NJ short intervals

paid" Forged Opposite Entry in
the Tax Warrant Book.
Chicago, Sept. 5.-Indictments were
returned in Judge Chetlains court to-
day against four men implicated in
the Masonic Temple Association tax
fixing scandal, which has taken up the
time of a special grand jury all the
week, and which county officials believe
will result in unearthing a conspiracy
to rob the county of hundreds of thous-
ands of dollars of taxes annually.
The men against whom true
bills were returned are Luke
Wheeler, charged with forgery
and conspiracy to defraud;
Capt. Edward Williams, manager of
the Masonic Temple, charged with ut
tering a formed instrument and with
conspiracy; j. B. Foy, conspiracy to
defraud; John L. Hay, Jr., conspiracy
to defraud.
According to the testimony given be-
fore the grand jury it is supposed that
Wheeler was the leader in the alleged
conspiracy. Some time ago it was dis
covered that an entry of PAID had
been forged opposite an item of near
ly $4,000 on the tax warrant book of
the county treasurer.
Michael Walsh gave testimony before
the grand jury to the effect that the
Temple Association wished to issue
several hundred thousand dollars
worth of new bonds to improve it's
financial. condition. but because the
building had been sold once before for
taxes, the trust companies would not
float the bonds, unless the property
was free from liens. 1t was alleged
that brides were offered to county en-
ployes to make the forged entry and
that Luke Wheeler was the go-be-
tween. Wheeler is at present missing.
Capt. Williams was arrested last
Saturday and gave bond for $1,000 for
his appearance.
The grand jury in connection with
the Masonic Temple case, has inves-
tigated a number of alleged forged
notes, put out by Wheeler, purporting
to come from influential business firms
of this city. Testimony before the in
vestigating body was to the effect that
Wheeler had said he received the notes
