Atlanta Council Aroused by woodward's
Conduct At Toledo.
ATLANTA. Ga. Aug. 25.-For his out
break at the Municipal League conven-
ton in Toledo, Mayor James G. Wood
ward is to be requested by the City Coun-
Gil to resign. II Woodward refuses to
resign the Council will take steps to i'm
peach him. The caucus OF the majority Of
members Of the Council which decided
on this action also determined to adopt
a resolution apologizing to Mayor Dunno
and the city Of Chicago for Woodward's
attack.
Feeling here over Woodward's outbreak
is very bitter, chiefly because he is an old
offender. When he served as Mayor four
years ago he was incspacitated for weeks
because Of drunkenness and was frequently
arrested on the streets. To escape i'm
peachment near the Gloss Of his term
he signed a pledge to resign should he
offend again. On leaving the Office he got
q Job with the Atlanta Street Railway Com
pany, which had secured a monopoly Of
transportation franchises during Wood
wards term Of Office.
About year ago Woodward was re-
elected owing to the fact that he received
the solid labor stren ,th, 900 votes while the
remaining 1900 votes were split among
four other candidates.

went on pressing buttons and giving COM

BY the time the Plunger had gone through
all OF these evolutions she had been sub
merged for nearly an hour. She came to
the surface finally, and the President again
breathed the salt air Of the ohoppy bay.
1t was pitch dark by that time, and he told
the Lieutenant that he was tremendously
impressed with the experiences he had
gone through. Never for q moment, he
said, did he feel the slightest sensation Of
danger. II had merely been thrilling
and pleasant experience.
The Plunger proceeded swiftly back
to her place Of anchorage under her own
power and when the President stepped
from the Plunger back into the Sylph's
launch he expressed himself as highly
pleased with his experience. For three
hours he had forgotten all about the peace
conference and the Portsmouth deadlock
and all the grave matters OF state that hay
30 much engaged him OF late. He re-
turned home to dinner with hearty ap-
petite
Late this evening the fact that the Presi-
dent made the descent was officially an
nounced. 1t was also announced that to-
morrow, shortly after o'clock, the public
tests Of the Plunger will take place In tho
same place that the tests took place to-day.
The President and his family will watch
these tests from the deck OF the Sylph.

CURzON,S ROW WITH KITCHENER.
General Accused the viceroy Of Misrepre-
senting His Attitude.
Special Gable Despatch to The SUN.

Special Gable Despatch to THE SUN.
SIM1A, Aug. 25.-A further chapter In
the controversy between Gen. Lord Kitch-
ener and Viceroy Curzon, who has re-
Gently resigned, was published to-day.
This consists Of a strongly wortled minute
issued by Gen. Kitchener protesting against
the telegram sent by Curzon to the Right
Hon. st. John Brodrick, Secretary Of State
for India, on Aug. 10, purporting to give
a summary Of Kitcheners proposals in re-
gard to the reorganization OF the Indian
Army.
Without entering into details Kitchener
describes Curzon's version of his (Kitch-
ener's) proposals as too sweeping in some
instances and incorrect in others, while
some assertions Kitchener fatty denies.
The minute concludes with the follow
ing:
"As regards the whole summary,'it gives
q description OF my proposals entirely
inconsistent with the views I actually
held"
The Viceroy gives long reply In which
he admits that his summary for the tele-
graph could not do full justice to every
feature, but he gladly welcomes a chance
Of subetantiating every statement he made
and OF proving the correctness Of the in
ferences he drew from them. Vioeroy
Curzon maintains everything be said and
concludes in the following strong Ankua &c:
Il have now referred to all charges Of
serious Misrepresentation brought by the
Chief against my summary
of his proposals and have proved every
paragraph Of it.
The publication Of these minutes ha q
created fresh sensation and increases
the deplorable friction between the two
factions supporting respectively the Vice
roy and the Commander-in-Chief. How
fatty Kitchener and Curzon contradict
each other may be deduced from the fol-
lowing clauses Of their minutes. Curzon
in his summary to Broderick Of Kitchener's
proposals said: THE Commander-in-
Chief in clause eleven stipulated that the
military supply member (of the Vice-regal
CounciD should not criticize opinions re-
corded by the Chief on
military questions
Kitchener strongly denies this, and 90
with much else of Curzon's summary.

want to Burden Others.
James Madison Brooks, q salesman for
the Manhattan OIL Company at 81 Front
street, committed suicide yesterday after
noon outside OF his apartments in the
Florence House, 100 East Eighteenth street
He shot himself in the head. His body
was found in chair near the elevator
shaft on the seventh floor. An hour before
the report Of a pistol had been heard on the
ground floor.
The door to his apartments was open,
and on a table there was a note, addressed
to N. B. Barry, proprietor Of the hotel.
With the note was ten dollar bill. The
note said:
aPlease save this for Mrs. Brooks. In
somnia drives me to this deed. l am too
i'll to hold UP longer l. do not wish to
burden others by my illness. l have
everything to live for II I only had health. '
Mr.. Brooks is said to have been a
prosperous oil refiner In Norfolk, Va.
when the Standard OIL Company absorbed
hM business fifteen years ago. At that
time he was married to wealthy Virginia
woman, and came to this city. He had
lived at the Florence House since then.
Mrs. Brooks and her twelve-year-old son
David came home a week ago from Cape
NAV, and left on Tuesday for Kennebunk-
port. Me. Before going she told Mr.. Barry
that her husband had been suffering 30
much from insomnia and indigestion
that she disliked to leave him alone. Her
husband urged her to 60 because, he said,
he did not wish to bore her with his sick
ness.
Mr.. Barry wired Mrs. Brooks and also
sent word to the dead mans sister. Mrs..
Greace, at Portsmouth. Va.
Mr.. Brooks was so years old and came
from well known Virginia family. Mrs.
Brooks is member Of the Daughters Of the

ARRESTS IN THE MIZE CASE.
Two Men Held On suspieAsn-Mrs. Wilson
Kept in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Aug. 25.-Earl L. Garrett, .
son Of q prominent Hyde Park real estate
dealer, was arrested late this Afternoon
on suspicion In connection with the murder
Of Mrs. Fife Mize. His arrest followed
the giving Of information by housekeeper,
who told the police that young Garrett
came to her the day after the murder and
gave her revolver to keep for him.
The housekeeper thought such request
suspicious and she made the circumstances
known to the police. CARROTS arrest fol-
lowed Immediately. but as he gave q good
account of his actions on the night Of the
murder 1t is not believed that he will be held
beyond tomorrow.
Clarence w. Laird is also being held
pending complete examination. He was
arrested on the complaint Of State
street department store where he was
employed, but as soon as he fell into the
hands Of the police it was noted that he
filed the description Of the murderer. and
instead Of charges being preferred against
him at once he was looked up to await an
examination by the police.
In the finding Of Mrs. Mizes torn pocketS
book the fact that the murder was for the
sake Of robbery was fully established. but
unless the clues which Inspector Hunt and
his men are now working on are produced
1t seems that the capture Of the murderer
ID as far away as on the night the crime
was committed.
All the lodging houses in the city are
being closely watched and any suspicious
person caught around such places will
be taken into custody.
In order that it may be impossible for
Mrs. F. A. Wilson, who was with the muir
dered woman when she was shot, to leave
the city, Coroner Hoffman to-day served
her with a subpoena requiring her appear
anoe before the Coroners jury at the in
quest which will be held Sept. 2.

Kaneko. Japan's confidential agent, to-day

The President communicated to Baron
Kaneko the substance Of Ambassador
Meyers cable message, and Baron Kaneko
somehow conveyed the idea TO the Prcst-
dent that Japan had made all the con-
cessions she could In the interests OF peace
and that henceforth any concessions made
must come from Russia
1t also seems obvious that the Presi-
dent has decided to conflne his future
efforts on behalf Of peace almost entirely
to the Russian side. 1t was reported this
afternoon that he was preparing another
message to the ENJOYS.

From what the Baron said 1t Is believed
here that Japan could probably be induced
to drop the word indemnity" By any
other name the sum Of 5000 600, 900 would
taste equally sweet to Japan.

the little Baron continued warmly, but all
concessions in the negotiation came from
our side. What more concessions can We
make2 Can they expect us to reduce the
amount OF money we ask? The war has
