Atlanta, July 25.-As the result of a
fight over graft in the Georgia general
assembly, James r. Gray, editor of the
Atlanta Journal, yesterday afternoon
attacked and severely punished Repre-
{ sentative Henry Revill. Mr.. Gray had
made charges in his paper that the
railroads dominate the politics of Geor-
gia, citing the tight on the anti-pass
bill. which recently was defeated thru
the efforts OF Revil and others. The
editorial passed some severe structures
on legislators who were willing TO
take all the courtesies the railroads
extend, and mentioned Revill as a
type OF the class.
Yesterday in the house ReviH at
tackled Gray in bitter speech. de-
nouncing the editor as a liar and ap-
plying; other epithets.
Later in the day Gray was sitting on
the veranda of the. Capitol City Club;
when he saw Revill approaching. Step
ping to the sidewalk, he confronted the
{ re representative, and after a few words,
began raining blows on the legislators

saatched away by Milt Saul, member
oe the Journals staff, who ran up and
took part in the fracas. Revilll In the
meantime had drawn knife, and the
fight was waged for three minutes un-
til the police arrested all three. Further

+ CANAL FUNDS NEARLY GONE.
Commission Will Have Disposed ot
$4,000, 600 by January I.

YlV1OOStVVV W S&'sSA' y
washington July, 25.-By january l
next the isthmian canal commission
will have spent the last penny Of the
preliminary appropriation Of $10,000,-
900 made by congress two years ago
to construct the Panama canal. Con-
gress has also passed a rule making
it misdemeanor to spend the public
money in excess Of the appropriations,
and 1t has also failed to enact any
Panama legislation for over a year.
This is one Of the reasons why Presi
dent Roosevelt sees the necessity of q
special session of congress beginning
early in November.
Men who are in Washington and
familiar with public affairs assert that
the next session of congress will see a
serious disagreement between the pres
ident and the standpat element in con-
gress if the president persists in his
attitude on tariff revision and railroad
rate legislation, as has been forecasted
in the reports from Oyster Bay. At the
same time the stand-pat element of
the president party actually dread the
coming of the special session of con-
gress and fear the issues. Should the
president launch forth one of his
strong messages calling attention to
the omission Of congress in the last
two years it is admitted here that
those who face congressional elections
next year will be in a very embarrass
ing position
1t is believed here that should con-
gress be called to meet November IL.
little will be accomplished before the
regular session in December beyond
the organization of both houses and
perhaps clearing away of the Pana-
ma canal legislation. Much will de-
pend upon the attitude of the, demo-
Gratis whether this much can be done

as we'll as for storage house for
dynamite and powder. In it there was
telephone and all the telephones in
that section of the city were burned
out after the storm. 1t Is believed to
be the most plausible explanation
that the lightning entered the building

exploded the dynamite and powedr.
The action of Governor LaF'ollette in
ordering an investigation and discover
ing that the railroads of that state
were not making honest and accurate
reports to the state for purposes Of
fixing the assessments, has caused
some little comment in this city, the
executive council having but completed
the public hearings and being now
busy on the work of fixing the assess
ment. Wisconsin has won In the coll
lection of a large sum Of escaped taxes
and according to the press dispatches
announces that 1t will collect about a
half million more. While there are no
indications that any such action will
be taken in this state the matter nat
urally causes discussion and raises the
ton would not make the same disclos-
ures here. Three Of the roads investi.
gated in Wisconsin were the North
western, and the Chicago, Milwaukee
& ST. Paul and the Minneapolis &
Omaha, all of which operate in this
state. AS the assessment reports to
the various states are all made up by
the same officials the question as to
whether or not the same practices have
been made on Iowa arises naturally.
Two Of the most important conven-
tions to be held this year in this city
are the anti tuberculosis convention to
be held here Thursday and the pure
food convention and exhibit in connec-
ton with the grocers' association, Oct.
8 to 81. There are something less than
1000 deaths annually in this state from
tuberculosis and it is believed that the
interest taken in the matter Is on the
increase because Of the possibility that
some steps are possible to prevent the
disease. The pure food convention If
all that its name implies instead of a
mere opportunity for manufacturers to
display and advertise their goods re-
gardless of their quality may attract
considerable attention and interest on
account Of the possibility that the leg
islature next January may enact a
pure food law.
Governor Cummins has not taken up
the matter of fixing new dates for the
