PAPER BLAMED FOR RIOTS.
Grand Jury at Atlanta, Ga, Accuses
Atlanta News.

The Fulton county grand jury at Atlanta
yesterday made the following presentment:
Believing that the sensational manner
in which the afternoon newspapers of At
lanta have presented to the people the news
of the various criminal acts recently COM
mitted in this county has largely Influenced
the creation of the spirit animating the
mob of last Saturday night, and that the
editorial utterances Of The Atlanta News
for some time past have been calculated to
create a disregard for the proper admins
tration of the law and to promote the or
ganization Of citizens to act outside of the
law In the punishment Of crime;
"And believing further that the distribu-
ton by The Atlanta News Of sensational
extras on Saturday night among excited
men and boys greatly infiamed the crowd
and promoted the formation of the mobs:
1T Is therefore resolved, That the SEN
sationalism of the afternoon papers in the
presentation of the criminal news to the
public prior to the riots of Saturday night,
especially in the case of The Atlanta News.
deserves our severest condemnation, and
we trust that, in the interest of law and
order in Fulton county, there may be a
cessation of such journalistic methods"
Gov. Terrell Is said to be interested in
The Atlanta News.

Moran Victory Admitted at Boston.

In statement issued at Boston yester-
day Josiah Quincy. chairman of the demo-
cratic state committee, and Representative
John A Sullivan. representing the opposition
to the candidacy Of John B. Moran for the
governorship nomination by the democrats,
concede the nomination to District Attor-
ney Moran. The statement follows:
The returns from the caucuses are now
sufficiently full to show beyond doubt
that considerable majority of the dele
gates are in favor OF the nomination Of
Mr. Moran. While we are satisfied from
returns which come directly to us from
our correspondents that a very respectable
minority of the, delegates would prefer
some other candidate, we frankly admit
that we see no prospect that this minority
could now convert the majority to its views
The case has been fully presented to the
democratic voters of the state, and while
our own opinions as to the claims of Mr.
Moran to the democratic nomination and
as to the advisability of fusion with other
parties remain unchanged we accent the
verdict of the caucuses. The responsibility
of the coming campaign now belongs wholly
to the democrats who have advocated or
acquiesced in the nomination of Mr. Moran
and we leave the field entirely to them. III
is understood that Mr.. Quincy will resign
as chairman Of the state committee within
a few days.

ALLEGED B1aAMoUs MARRIAGE
Revealed in Application for a Pen
sion by Mans Widow.

Federal Judge Pollock rendered a de-
cision at Wichita, Kan, in an unusual
case that came up from Commanche coun-
ty. 1t was the result of an alleged big
amous marriage by James Mclaughlin.
Mclaughlin was an old soldier who de-
serted his wife Rebecca in Pennsylvania
and, coming to Kansas with young wom-
an named Annie Scott, married her and
lived with her thirty years, rearing eight
children.
Upon his death. his second wife, who says
she knew nothing of his previous marriare
applied for a pension and this led to- the
discovery Of wife No. /. The court decided
that the Pennsylvania wife was entitled ia
half the estate. and McLaughlin's children
by his second wife were entitled to the
other half. while the second wife was en-.
titled to nothing. though 1t was largely
through her efforts that the property was
accumulated.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The action Of the board OF directors of
the Union. Trust Company IN deciding to
recommend to- the stockholders of that
company an increase in the capital stock
OF 100000, making the total issue two
millions. was discussed today In financial
circles, and the conclusion was reached
that. this was "a good plan for, providing
the money for the new building.
It was estimated that IL such an increase
was decided upon that each stakeholder
would be entitled to subscribe at par for
two shares Of the. new stock for every
three shares of stock now held. On. the
basis Of the present market price of the
stock which is 145, it is thought that "the
rights, as the privilege to subscribe ID
called. would be worth about $25 per share.
The proposed increase in the capital stock
Is also looked upon as In line with the gen.
eral development of the business OF the city
that has been noted for some time past.
The day when a half-million or even
million-doilar financial institution was
rarity in this city is not likely to return.
The modern tendency has been toward ex-
pansion of existing institutions as well as
the establishment of new ones, so that alto
gether the financial world Of Washington
wears an entirely different aspect today
than 1t did even a few years back It has
not been so many years ago when there
was no such thing as a trust company in
the city. and for a much later period there
was only one or. at the best, two savings
banks in the city.
The news of what was proposed to be
done made the stock the most active one on
the list at today's meeting Of the stock ex-
change. Although it was quoted ex-divi- 1
dend, yet sales were made up to $50, which
is three points above the recent bid price 1
Still even this advance did not bring out
much of the stock, which is closely held.
There was not much done at the meeting,
and the changes made in the quotation
were not important. A small lot of Mitch
ell, in sympathy, no doubt with the better
figures quoted in New York. sold at an
eighth advance on 5. but the asking price
remained quarter higher.
A circular letter has been received in this
city by the heads Of financial institutions
from an officer of financial institution in
one OF. the western states requesting their
views in regard to the advisability of get
ting up a petition asking President Roose-
welt to again become the candidate of his
party. at the next presidential election The
author of the circular is of the opinion that
If petition of this nature was largely
signed its existence would change the sit
uation and result in Roosevelts accepting
the nomination for another term. 1t may
be said in general that, while good many
people here would have no objection to an
other term for the incumbent of the White
House, yet they are not inclined to believe
that the proposed movement is one that is
likely to accomplish such an end.

Arkansas Valley r. r.

The contract for grading all the
various connecting links Of the Ar
kansas Valley Railroad has been let
to be completed not later than June
l, 1907. This includes the Holly
line and the Las Animas branches,
all of which are now under the man
agement of Charming NJ. Ward at
Lamar. The new railroad when
completed will have about 120 miles
of track, and will be one Of the San
ia Fe's most valuable feeders, as it
passes through the richest farming
region of the United States
Already two hustling and pros
porous new towns have sprung up
along the line of the road, Gordon
and Shelton, and Swink the new
town on the main line is directly at
tributable to the new road. 1t is
freely predicted that in 1908 the new
road will have three beet sugar fac
tories along its line and be profit
able investment for the Santa Fe
independent of it's value as feeder.

South Side Ditch,

At the session of District court in

b. Traxler for the south side ditch
presented evidence covering all the
proceedings of the Board of County
Commissioners of Prowers county
and the directors of the Bent and
Prowers Irrigation district in the
matters pertaining to the organiza-

the bonds for the construction of the
ditch. Judge Hunter after review
ing all the various proceedings ap-
proved the same, and issued decree
declaring the bonds for 81, 300, 900 a
legal Indebtedness of the district.
The directors are now in position
to either sell or trade the bonds as
seem best in their judgment, and as
they have many contractors and in
vestors on their list who have shown
great interest in these bonds, it is
the belief and hope of all our citizens

soon be under way.

New Depot.

The new depot is rapidly being
put up, and it will only be a few
weeks until the passenger, baggage
and express business will be transact
ed in the new quarters. The coun
ell has ordered an ordinance prepar-
ed closing Fourth street SO far as
the railroad right-of-way is concern
ed, and there will be platform 600
feet in length in front of the depot,
allowing the passengers on even the
longest trains to get off on a dry
walk. The quarters for all depart
ments will be much larger and more
convenient than at present, and
everything possible done for the
comfort and accommodation of the
patrons of the road.
The old depot, which will be used
as the freight depot will be moved
to the north some to allow the new
sidings to be placed in the yards,
but street fully 100 feet wide will
be left between it and the business
lots to the north. When all is COM
pleted Lamar will have the best rail-
road accommodation of any town
along the valley outside Of La Junts.
Steps are being taken to run sid
ing up the eastern end of Poplar
street for the convenience Of num-
ber of business institutions, and this
will probably be done in the near
future.
