No Evidence OF Foul Play In Cox case at

The inquest before Judge Bates into
the death of Mrs. George Cox and her
infant grandson has been completed and
no further action will be taken in the
matter. Drs. Stewart and Houle who
made the autopsy found that the child
died from suffocation but there is no
evidence showing that the suffocation was
due to any particular cause, and might
have been accidental. The evidence
showed that Eunice Cox left home %
hours before her baby's death and did not
return until the day following. and also
that she had arranged to have the child
taken to Londonderry to be brought up by
relatives. The doctors found that Mrs
Cox died from drowning while undoubted

hampered by the fact that the body had
been embalmed contrary to the orders Of

since February with Gastritis.

James Abercromble Burden died Of gas
tritls yesterday at his home, eos Fifth ave.
nue.. In his seventy-iourth year. lie had
been ailing since February. He returned
from Europe a week ago. Mr.. Burden
was born In Troy, n. Y, on January 9, 1888.
He was the eldest son Of Henry Burden,
one Of the captains Of industry Of his day,
who came to this country from Scotland
in 1919, settled in Troy. founded the Burden

ROOT NOT GOING TO HAVANA.
Washington Expects Him 10 Come Direct
20 New York From Colombia.

WASHINGTON. Sept. est is not probable
that Secretary Root will stop at Havana
on his way homo from his South American
trip. According to a cable despatch re-
ceived to-day at the State Department, Mr..
Root will arrive tomorrow at Carthagena,
Colombia, where he will be met by President
Reyes Of that republic for an official recep-
ton. After the ceremonies there he will
go direct to New York on the cruiser Column
bia. II was believed when the President
commissioned Secretary Taft and Assistant
Secretary Bacon to go TO Cuba to make an
effort to bring about peace that Mr.. Root
might also go to Havana to assist. The
President has sent no request to Mr.. Root,
however, that he 60 70 Havana. and IL IL
expected. therefore, that he will 20 direct
to New York.
The Cuban situation was quiet to-day
as far as Washington was concerned. There
were few cable dispatches received at the
State and Navy departments, and nom
OF them had any important bearing on the
situation. A despatch from Commander
Fullam OF the Marietta reported affairs
quiet at Cieniuegos. There are upward
OF 100 marines and b~luejackets ashore
there guarding American sugar planta-
tions, but since the news Of the suspension
Of hostilities has reached the insurgents
in that part OF the island they nave shown
little activity.

HOW CAN WE PROTEST TO RUSSIA

Against Jewish Nassacres While I.ynchIngs
Continue? Asks BIumenthaI.
In an address before the Congregation
Sons OF Zion at its place Of worship on East
10th street Sherif's Counsei Maurice B.
Blufmenthal yesterday delivered al address
in which he declared that the Jewish move
vention by the United States In behalf OF
the prosecuted Jews Of Russia has sus-
tanned q seri0fs setback because Of the
Wholesale lynehlng Of negroes at Atlanta.
Mr.. Blumenthal said In part:
when We contemplate Americas tolera-
ton Of negro lynchIng in the South II savo rs
much Of hypocrisy for the American public
to profess horror 40 the Jewish massacres
in Russia. Americans are credited with
possessing the progressive spirit and intelli-
Rence Of an enlightened civilization, while
Russia Ia regarded as still under the spell
OF middle age barbarity, yet rarely do
we peruse our daily newspaper that we
do not read Of these miniature massacres OF
the blacks.
There is a close resemblance between
attacks by Russian soldiers upon Jews
because of prejudice against creed and the
lynching by American freemen Of colored
American citizens because Of prejudice
against color. The immediate provocative
has nothing to do with the case. There Ia
no crime more heinous than that which
usually causes this lynching fever, but
no crime can be 90 g~rievous or revolving
as to justify the horrors that this lawless-
ness and disregard OF u most sacred
institutions invariably bring about

negro was stabbed to death, two more were
shot and others we're fatally stabbed or
beaten. Inside the Grand Theatre an
audience listened to the burlesque OF negro
life; at the same moment. less than a block
away, they were killing negroes.
During the early part OF the rioting Gov.
Terrell wasaslesp In the Executive Mansion.
In Peachtree street, unconscious Of the
trouble. No one had notified him.
About 10 o'clock IL occurred to some one
to call up the Governor and tell him what
was going on. The Governor acted
promptly and ordered out the troops, but
the evil had already been done.
Ten men we're lead and a hundred
wounded, some Of whom viii die. One
white man. Ike Norris. was shot dead by
q negro just as the riot wa simmering
down. The negro escaped.
A meeting Of prominent citizens was
held at the Piedmont Hotel this afternoon
to informally dlscuss the riots. Il vas
decided that the situation did not demand
any further action than the assembly Of
the militia. The burden Of the majority
Of speakers was regret that 40 much in
jury would be lone Atlanta by this out
burst OF race resentment.
Among the people generally there 10
regret because Of the city's Disgrace in
the eyes OF the world. but there Is little or
no regret over the deaths Of half q score OF
negroes. while some even rejoice that the
whites hav taken vengeance.
Hoke Smith, the mex Governor OF the
State, positively refused to express an
opinion OF the situation. He has been
besieged by telephone and requested by
telegraph for u~ttersnoes by many news
papers.
A notable feature Of the rioting was the
respect for property. This was apparent,
with slight exception, during the long night
when the crowds surged through the streets
intent upon the sole object Of doing bodily
violence to any negro, wherever found. A
single exception was the robbing Of q hard
ware store to get weapons and ammunition
and the breaking Of windows in a restaurant
where it was reported a negro was con-
cealed.
Tonight the city Is under martial law.
Mayor Woodward has ordered everybody
to stay indoors. There are premonitions
that the trouble is O yet over. for Gov.
Terrell has ordered here the State troops
from Macon and from Rome. These CON-
mands are about 900 strong and will reach
here before morning. A battery OF light
artillery il already on duty.

Ing to a story told by a French nurse. Fob
bers in an automobile twice have visited

Wanstall are away in the country and the
child, a girl five months old, is alone with
the nurse.
The nurse said the men made their first
visit on Friday night. They had succeeded
In prying open a window and getting into
the house when she discovered them. She
ran upstairs and after locking herself in
the room where the child was sleeping
began firing a revolver and screaming for
help. The woman told Sergt. Cody that
a large black machine without head
lights was standing in front Of the house
and that the strangers jumped into It and
sped away.
Early this morning the neighborhoOd
was aroused again by the shooting Of n
revolver and screaming from the Wsnstall
house. This time the neighbors say they
heard an automobile getting under way
apparently from in front OF the house.
The police say that they have discovered
no reason why any one should want to
kidnap the baby.
