GOVERNOR RETURNS WITH
 IDEAS, BUT IS SILENT
Chief Executive of Alabama Talked With Chief Executive of Uni-
 ted States-Admires Him.

Governor Conner returned to the Cap- itol yesterday after a visit to the Wa terways Convention at Washington. and incidentally a business trip to New York. He was bearning with a seeming inner sense of satisfaction. He evidently secured many ideas while away. but on all such subjects as the incidentaB $of forcing railroads to bend the proud knee he failed to speak. If Governor Hoke Smith /of Georgia told the Governor of Alabama how to apply the lash moree effectually. or if Governor Glenn of North Carolina said to the Governor of Alabama anything that might show how the fight was practically won in his State, Alabama's s Governor refrained from saying.
 In fact the Governor was not dis posed to discuss State events at all. He was willing to tell of the social i1- cidents of his trip. and to observe the great possibilities of such an organtza- ton as the Waterways Associatfoue-
 One of the most interesting incidents of the Governors stay in Washington was a meeting he had with President Roosevelt. He was a guest of the President at the White House and had luncheon with the great trust buster and wielder of the large cane in gen.

FORMER INSANE CONVICT -
 IS TAKEN INTO CUSTODY

Rolling upon the ground, tearing the turf with his hands and emitting weird, harsh cries like some wild animal, Jake Hayrick, negro, formerly a State convict. was found yesterday af- ternon about o'clock on Jefferson Avenue, and taken intokcustody. Hay rick was incarcerated in the city pris- on and is held for an investigation of his case.
 When Officer Loe came upon the man he was offering no violence except to the earth. He rolled over and over, now clawing the earth. and agaiH fight ing the wind With his hands and arms. He snarled and groaned and shrieked, and seemed altogether mad. He was taken to Police Headquarters and im- prisoned.
 Hayrick was formerly a States con- vict and was released because of in- sanity. It is thought that his disor- der is incurable.
