PROHI CRUSADE CAUSE
CurtaiIment is Imperative But Matter viii

National Convention.

A Washington special says; The
consolidation Of the two internal rev.
enue collection districts in Tennessee,
announcement Of which was made Sat
urday by Commissioner of Internal
Revenue Capers, is only the begin.
ming of what will be a general ANAL
gamation Of revenue collection dis
tricts throughout the country as the
result of the growing temperance
movement
The Georgia collection district is to
be consolidated with that of South
Carolina and the Mississippi and Ala
bama districts are to be made one ac-
cording to present arrangements but
this action will not be taken until
after the republican national conven-
ton is thing of the past. Political
considerations are responsible for the
delay.
The administration, which is making
a determined effort to control the ma
tional convention, does not wish to
give offense to southern republicans
by consolidating these collection dis
tricts at this time.
The headquarters of the new Ten
nessee district will be at Nashville.
and the president has appointed Rob
ert S. Sharp of Chattanooga collector
Of the new district OF Tennessee. The
new district win be divided into d.
visions, each in charge Of a division
deputy collector instead of eleven, az
at present, which will afford ample
force to handle the internal revenue
work in connection with the field
force of internal revenue agents.
Mr.. Sharp has rendered to Mr. But

WITH A GOLDEN CARGO
Great Steamer busitania Reashes New
EO8k-Bresks Her Previous Speed
Record by Over an Hour.

Record by Over an Hour.
The marvellous record established
less than a month ago by the giant
turbine Cunarder Lusitania when she
cut several hours from the passage
time across the Atlantic, already has
been broken.
The Lusitania still retains the title
Of queen Of the seas, as it was she
herself that established the new low
mark and incidentally she added seve-
raj new records to her credit. These
include the best single days run-61S
knots, made November 6-an average
of more than 900 knots for every full
day and an average hourly speed Of
2425 knots for the full 1871 miles.
On her last voyage the Lusitania
covered the distance in four days, nine
teen hours and ffty-two minutes The
voyage ended Friday, over the same
course, was completed in four days,
eighteen hours and forty minutes, thus
clipping one hour and twelve minutes
from the previous low mark.
In the Lusitania's big vaults was
stored nearly 100000 in gold, more
stored over .$12,OOO,OOO in. gold, more
which had been engaged abroad by
American bankers since the present al
most unprecedented movement began.
This gold will be added to the coun-
try's available circulation of currency.
AS soon as the big ship was warped
into her dock, preparations were made
for discharging the twenty-four tons of
golden treasure in her specie room.
The work was under the personal SUI
pervision Of Vernon H. Brown, gem
eral agent of the Cunard line. Long
shoremen were soon at work carrying
the small but heavy steel-bound wood
en- cases, of which there were 1874,
ashore.
Purser. Lancaster checked each box
as it was brought down the gangplank.
Plain clothes men and policemen were
on guard, and portable wooden fence
placed across the send of the dock,
where the gold was being handled,
served to keep back the curious.

CUss WORDS LEAD TO MURDER.
Man Used Ladies' Bath Room and Killed
Fellow Boarder Who Protested.


Robert N. Mitchell shot and killed
Joe M. Sloop early Friday night in
front of the Central hotel in Rome,
Georgia.
1t seems that there had been some
trouble between Mitchell and Sloop,
both of whom boarded at the Central

sisted in using the ladies' bath room,
to which Sloop objected Friday morn
ing, it is.2aIl6ged, Mitchell attempted
to get into the bath room while Shops

that Sloop applied a vile epithet to
any man who would do that kind
of a thing
Mitchell, it seems, had been broQd
ing over the matter all day, and wait
ed for sloop to come to supper.
When he saw Sloop, he reminded
him of what he had said in the morn
ing, and called him vile name three
times, and then shot him in the breast
four times with 48-caliber revolver.

Mitchell is a musician and leader

a quiet, inoffensive man.
The friends of Sloop were very in,

themselves quite freely on, the subject
and a good many threats were made
against Mitchell.

Geo. Gould returning to. New York
Tuesday, on the steamer Kron Princes.
sin Cecelie from a six months auto.
mobile tour of Europe, discussed freely
the European view Of the recent fnan.
cial crisis in this country.
"Our credits are in a bad way
abroad" said Mr. Gould. "hTe people
Of Europe received an awful scare, and
they are still nervous and afraid Of
our securities. But their view is all
wrong. Our country is all right, our
resources were never stronger, our
railroads were never buster. Industry
everywhere is humming. We have sim.
ply got TO get together and put our
shoulders to the wheel to restore con.
fdence
"In this connection / want to say
something of Mr.. Morgan. He is
trump, and he has saved us from
great Disaster"
II industrial conditions in America
are in such good shape Mr.. Gould was
asked his opinion as to the cause -
the uneasiness in Europe.
Il believe without hesitation" ha
said, that the terrible sentence iBV
posed upon the Standard Oil company
is the largest factor. TO the people
of Europe the fine looks like practi
cal confiscation-the wiping out of
hundreds of stockholders possibly, in
their view-and they believe that the
agitation in this country means SINH
lar one to all the rest OF our big
corporations. They fear to put their
money in the big concerns with the
Standard Oil verdict dangling before
them The fine imposed by Judge Lam
dis has immeasurably hurt us. The
fright it gave investors on the other
side was tremendous.
"But as l say the conditions in this
country are sound and we already are
on the road to restored confidence. The
trouble is that our currency is all out
Of joint. 1t would be feather in
Rooseyelt's cap if he should call an
extra session Of congress and secure
the adoption of much needed currency
reforms. Just what the character Of
the new legislation should be am
not ready to say. l have no pet plan
of my own"
AS 10 the telegraph strike, Mr. Gould
said:
"The strike was most ill-advised, as
the men have been quick to discover.
The operators had but recently receiv.
ed an increase in salary, showing a
disposition on the part of the Western
Union to better their condition as rap.
idly as circumstances would permit.
No, l have no concern over the strike
whatever. / would ordinarily let It
take its course through proper chan
uels."

A THIRD TERM
FOR ROOSEVELT

BASED ON ELECTIONS

A New York special says: Chairman
Timothy L.. Woodruff Of the republican
state committee, who wired the presi-
dent that Tuesdays republican victory
in Kings county was due to Mr.. Roose-
velts strength in Brooklyn, said in
an interview Wednesday night that he
believed the demand would be such
that the president would be Obliged
to accept a denomination.
Chairman Woodruff had been asked
where he stood on the presidential stu.
alton, when he replied:

demand for the denomination of The
odore Roosevelt will be SO strong next
spring that the president will be oblig-
edt to accept the denomination Every
indication points to his being swept
