pELTED THE DIPLOMATS,
French and German Ministers In Haiti
Made Target for Stones BY Pal
ace Guards at Port.au.Prlnoe.

The foreign office at Paris has re-
ceiyed a dispatch from NJ Doprez, tho
FfenCh minister at Port-au-Prlnce,
Haiti, saying that while he and the
German minister were driving past
the palace Wednesday they were at
tackled and stoned by soldiers forming
the palace guard,
NJ Deprez was struck on the lex by
a stone and as slightly injured, Tho
ministers wives, who we're in another
carriage following, were also pelted,
The wife OF the French minister Is an
American. Foreign Minister Delcasge
has not yet. determined what steps
shall be taken, but officials consider IT
certain that France will make an en-
ergetic demand for redress. One
French warship is near the scene and
another at the French naval quarters
in the West Indies.
1t is expected that Germany will
make a similar demand for redress.
4 A Washington special says Con
frmation of the reported attack on the
French and German minister's in Haiti
came to the state department Thurs
day in the shape of the following ca
blegram from Minister Powell at PORT
au.Prince, dated June 90: yi....
French and German ministers,

palace in their carriages yesterday,
we're stoned by the palace guard

ogy demanded, but none given Both

The most serious feature Of the at.
fair is that the attack was made not
by an irresponsible mob, but by die
palace guard, which directly connects
the Haitien government with the ocd.

outgrowth of the Haitlen bank trou-
BILE, which involved the Incarceration

Georgia Legislature Takes Prompt
Aetlon-No Reduction In Pensions.
Ballot reform has been taken UP in
earnest by the Georgia Legislature, and
from the steps taken during the FIRST
two days Of the session, the indica.
lions are that something tangible,
something definite, something that will
constitute an important step in the
direction OF progress, will be accom-.
plshed.
The question Of ballot reform now
goes to special joint committee CON.
posed of six members of the house and
four from the senate, including
Speaker N. A. Morris, of the house,
and President Clark Howell, of the
senate, this course having been deter.
mined by the passage Thursday Of
Joint resolution of which DR.. T. ]. NJ.
Kelly, of Glascock, Is the author.
Sentiment and business met in con.
fliot on the floor of the house of rep.
resentatives at Thursdays session,
when the proposition to cut off from
pensions such confederate soldiers as
own $1,000 worth of property or have
an income Of more than $500 annual.
ly came up for final consideration In
the shape of a bill by Mr. Wellborr of
Union,
Sentiment carried the day after
quite warm discussion, for the house
disagreed to the favorable report of
the committee by vote of 81 to 50,
and the bill was lost, The house thus
refused to go on record as cutting off
the pension Of any worthy confederate
veteran because he had accumulated
