Chattanooga, September 2S.-After nooa of October 10 the Chattanooga division of the Southern railway will be aban- doned. It will be divided between Knox vile and Atlanta divisions, as it was before the local division was created nine month ago. A similar fate will happen to the Mooresville division of the North ern district, which will be combined with the Winston-Salem division.

J. Mulvaney. train master of the Atlanta district of Chatta- nooga division, will revome his headquar- ters to Atlanta

Smith, the present official of that division in charge. D. w.. Newell, superintendent of the Mooresville division has been transferred as super tendent of the Rock Hill division with headquarters at Rock Hill, s. C.. to sue ceed w. w.

 MURDER CHARGE

TAFT BOOMER IS
 COMING SOUTH Secretary of State of Ohio is Laying His..LineS AFTER SOLID DELEGATION The Taft Supporters Fear Split In Party Ranks In Alabama and
 Men Are Becoming
 Active.

Columbus O., September 2S.-(Special)- Immediately upon the return of State Auditor Gullbert from Nebraska. where he succeeded in having Taft endorsed by the republicans of that state, Secretary of State Carmi Thompson, another en- thusiastic Taft boomer, left for Alabama Ion important legal business" This bus mess, it is believed is to see that the Ala aDama delegati tion-the first that will be called in the national convention-is prop erly lined up for the Secretary of War. While MT. Thompson gave no intimation of what he intended doing upon reaching Alabama his destination was Birming- ham, and 1t is regarded as significant that Birmingham is the headquarters of Jo- seph O. Thompson chairman of the state republican committee of Alabama, and referee of the President in that state. It is regarded as conclusive that MT. Thomp- son of Alabama will be seen by the Ohio Thompson and that plans will be laid for assuring a solid Alabama delegation for Taft.
 1t is not believed that MT. Taft's repre- sentatives and friends will have much difficulty in securing the Alabama delega- ton. Joseph o. Thompson, the official head of the party in that state, is a Roosevelt man, first, last and all the time, and he is supposed to be In control of tne situation, despite the efforts made during the past fewA months by J. w. Davidson and others of the old-time leaders, to wrest the party machinery from him. In view of the activity of those opposed to Thompson, 1t Is possible, of course, that there may be split in the state, resulting in two delegations, but it is regarded as certain that, in such an event. one of these delegations would be for Taft and the chances are that if Taft was as strong in the con- vention as his packers believe he will be. the delegation instructed for him wodld be seated Alabama republicans have a way of splitting on the eve of national campaigns and members of the national committee have come to look upon a contestng delegation from that state as a matter of course.
 After viewing the situation in Alabama, it Is possible that MT. Thompson-the Ohio Thompson-may take dip into other southern state, but if this is his intention, it is not known here. His visit to Alabama, .-oWever, is taken as conclusive evidence that the real work of lining up the delegates has been 'n- augurated in the south J. R. H.

BY MALCOLM CLARKE,

Berlin, September 2S-The city au thorities of Berlin are justly proud of the fact that, while the immensely rich metropolis of America, New York finds it hard to dispose of her bonds at a rate of interest which is very close to usury, according to European ideas the city of Berlin will not have to borrow any money for years to come.
 Not only does the city budget for the present fiscal year show no deficit but there will even be d surplus of not less than fifteen million marks.
 To the advocates of municipal owner ship in the United States this fact will furnish splendid argument, for the surplus in question is all derived from the gas works owned and operated by the city of Berlin, which have proved enormously profitable, although the quality of the gas turned out is eX- cellent, and il is sold to the consumers at d much cheaper price than the ave- age price in the large cities of Amer lea.

Judge TraceWel Declares That To- bacco Is a Necessity tc Laboring Men-Dentists to Be Examined

Washington. September 2S.-(Specal.)- The controller of the treasury, from whom there is no appeal holds that the
 use of tobacco is a necessity and In
 certain cases it devolves upon Uncle Sam
 to foot the bill,
 The controller today approved the ex- penditure of $1 for such a purpose by George Webb of the Immigration Service, Tuscon Arizona. Webb says twenty
 nine Mexcans were arrested at Nogales
 and thrown into jail under the suspicion that they were entering the United States
 in violation of the immigration laws. In
 order to keep them pacifed Webb was obliged to buy them twenty packages of tobacco. for which he paid $l and he put
 in a bill for that amount. w. l.. Coleau, the dlsbursing clerk of the department of , commerce and labor, had his doubt about paying and referred the question lo the controller

 .aTobacco," holds Judge Tracewell, has long since been recognized as necessity and not luxury among laboring men, | mean the class of common laborers en-
 ployed on public works, and especially with this class when in confinement, A penitentiaries and other similar instltu- tions have recognized this fact Tobacco used under the circumstances under whch l this tobacco was purchased and issued IS | not a gratuity any more than the pur- chase and issue of coffee would be a Sra- | tuity.'

The police of Vienna have made two arrests in connection with the recent mysterious murder of Count kamarowsky at Venice, and the confessions which have been made revealed that the murder was not a political one.
 The persons under arrest are the Count ess Tarnovska, an extremely beautiful young woman, who is divorced from her husband, and a Russian lawyer named Prilukow. The latter has confessed that Naumoff, who committed the murder, was really only the tool of the countess, who planned the crime in order to get $100000 for which the murdered man was insured.
 The countess is said to be a descendant of an Irishman named ORourke, who came to Russia about a century ago. Her husband divorced her because she was represented by Prilukow, who fell madly in love with her.
 She ruined him, and after his wife had divorced him, he was forced to leave Russia to escape prosecution for swind- ling his clients.
 Count Kamarowsky the murdered mar, was an old lover of the countess
 The Pan German league has. figuratiye- ly speaking, put it's head into the lions mouth by the resolution it adopted at it's recent annual convention at Wies- baden.
 It has actually dared to tell the Kaiser that it's members are greatly dissatls- fled with his personal regime, as well as with the foreign policy of the German government, and demand the rapid con struction of a formidable navy, that the country may be in a position to back up more resolute and aggressive foreign DolipN with pInS and tOrDpdOcS. The league wants no friendship with England or King Edward, whom it dis trusts and suspects of working toward the absolute isolation of Germany.
 ''The Kaser does not maintain the dig nifty of the country; he prostrates himself before the United states as a country and goes out of his way to flatter and honor American millionaires and If he does no. change his ways he will lose the conf dence of the German people.
 This sounds very much like lese maJeste, and somebody will surely suffer.
 The weakening of the Russian revolu- tionary movement continues to react heavily on Finnish affairs. The conces- sions gained by the Finnish people since 1905 are boing threatened both from St. Petersburg and by the small class of re- actionary Films at home.
 The reactonary movement is aimed against the working class. The reaction aries demand that the Seante shall sup press all labor unions in the cities and towns because most of them are socialis- tic According to Finnish law, the Sen ate, which Is the executive government, cannot abolish any union or association without a judgment from the courts, and test cases are coming up for trial which threaten the existence of unions which have existed for more than ten years.
 The socialists are at present busy eX- tending their organization and holding meetings of protest.
 Another sign of the weakening of the liberal movement is the agreement by three of the four great Finnish parties to pay the 20,O0OOOo marks demanded by Russia toward military expenditures.
 The socialists are the only ones holding out against the demand, though they are we'll aware that it is of no use.
