Mr.. BAKER TALKS OF
"THE POOR AMONG U.s."
Offers Some Explanation. of the cap
paIIing" Condition I'm Chatham.


paIIIng" Condition I'm Chatham.
Tax Receiver Marcus s. Baker,
when shown the statement attributed
to the controller general, in which he
is credited with having said that he
was appalled, by the small per cent of
white people of Chatham county who
returned property, said that he did not
believe that the controller had criti-
cised him, but that the remarks were
merely misconstrued by the Atlanta
correspondent
Mr.. Baker was therefore 10th to
make any reply. He said that he in
tended no criticism of the controller,
when he attempted to explain this dis
parity between Chatham county and
other counties in the state. AS the
condition had been pictured as so I'M
usual and remarkable he said he would
offer an explanation.
This is not a farming county, where
small and rich farms dot the face of
the county from the city's borders to
the adjoining county, as are most of
the counties in the state. There are
comparatively few farms in the coun-
ty and most of these are conducted by
negroes There are scarcely more
than 200 white farmers in the county.
Chatham county is a big. county. The
country portion is largely populated
by negroes. Reference is made in the
dispatches only to the whites.
Now, where there are no. Georgia
cities to the east and none to the
north, and a large portion of the coun-
ty is lowland and marsh and the peo-
pie are engaged in commercial rather
than agricultural pursuits, is it not
natural that the land outside of the
city should be less valuable, and that
those who engage in. commercial pur-
suits should represent the wealthiest
part of the community? These COM
mercial establishments employ thou
sands and thousands of young men
and old whose income is derived from
their employers.
's,The percentage of poor would not
be so great were the people of the
county not so good in coming up with
their poll returns. Of course this Is
induced in no small extent by the eff
forts of politicians to bring out a heavy
registration Many men are prevailed
upon to pay their poll tax, who would
otherwise neglect it,
Several officials, in speaking of the
matter, said that the condition was by
no means ineAphCe1Dle' AHey soy IL 10
natural for the land in the farming
counties to be more valuable outside
of the city than in the counties where
the people rely largely on commercial
pursuits for maintenance. One off,
cial said that he had been informed
that In Fulton county the receiver of
tax returns had been instructed by the
County Commissioners to refund the
money wherever double tax had been
exaeted in cases of poll. OF course
in such a case, he said, people were
not so diligent in the payment of their
poll.
A letter received yesterday from the
controller by Mr.. Baker. bears no In
tirnation Of the disDleasufe Of the con-
troiler. Quite to the contrary. Il

1T is certain that rigid investiga-
ton of the whipping will be made, and
it is more than likely that Warden
Allagood will be removed.
The warden has little to say COM
corning the lashes that were given on
the bare back of the victim. His wife
declares that the woman was imperti-
nent, and that she told her husband
to whip her. Mrs. Allagood does not
seem in the least sorry for the fearful
punishment administered to the wom-
an.
Miss DeCris was stripped to the
waist in one of the rooms of the pris-
on. Her hands were tied above her
head, while a keeper gave her forty
lashes with a rawhide whip. Every
blow cut her flesh like a knife. Her
back was crisscrossed with gashes
from the whip and covered with welts.
IN this condition, while suffering
torture, she was sent to the fields to
work with negroes. There she tainted.
Supt. Foster discovered her condition
and sent her to the hospital. There she
became insane with pain and terror.
I'm her delirium the woman imag-
ines she is again to be whipped, and
ShriekS appeals to her imaginary tor
mentors.
THE surgeon at the hospital says
her chance for recovery is slender.
She is the only white woman at the
convict camp here that has ever been
subjected to such punishment.
Everywhere her punishment is
spoken of as a disgrace to the official
who ordered ii and a blot on the in
stitution. When Miss DeCris was con-
victed of obtaining jewelPy on forged
orders, her friends declared she was
insane and should be sent to an asy-
lum. The Prison Commission now in
Yestigating the case promises to take
radical action.

PREDETERMINED HATS.

The distinguishing feature of late
summer hats is their trimmings
These are entirely novel and foreshad-
ow the ultra-smart decoration for au-
tumn headgear.
In many of the hats of early sum-
mer the trimming consisted chiefly of
plumes and wings; the season-end
models are adorned with flights of the
tiniest birds imaginable, perched up
on the brims of crownless flats and
spreading Gainsboroughs.
A fascinating model is shown in dark
blue and rich green mixed straw. The
brim is faced with the two shades of
chiffon shirred and finished along the
edge with tiny ruching of black
lace. The brim of the hat turns
away sharply at the front and sides,
while blue birds with breasts and
wings Hecked with green and yellow
peep over the edge.
