MOST REMARKABLE
 TERM OF COURT

Cartersville, Ga.. September s.-The jury in the case of William Golden. the aged white man, who is charged with as- saulting Miss Annie Gentry on July 9 last. at Il o'clock tonight Is apparently hopelessly divided as to his guilt.
 In the case of Howard stokely. the ne- gro who was charged with criminally assaulting 7-year-old negro girl, the jury rendered a verdict of guilty of assault and battery and Stokely was sentenced to serve 12 months in the penitentiary
 When the Golden case is disposed of one of the most remarkable terms of court in Georgias history will have ended This special term was called by Judge Fite. following threats to lynch the three white men and one negro held in the local jail charged with criminal assault, unless their trial and punishment should be speedy. The first of the cases disposed of, that of R. J. and Dinls Worthington, charged with assault upon Miss Mary Elrod. re- suited in conviction with recommends tion to the mercy of the court as to R. J.

COOKS HACKER HAS.
 LITTLE TO SAY.

New York. September S.--John R. Brad Joy, who financed the Cook expedition, declined today to give any statement that would reconcile the conflicting state- ments made by him and by pr. Cook in his lecture last night in Copenhagen, as to the objects of the Cook expedi- ton, saying that matters were becoming so mixed up that he would have nothing more to say. Dr. Bradley said in this city on Sunday that Cook planned care- fully to reach the pole.
 Dr. Cook in his lecture last night said that about the middle of 1907, when we started. the pole was no part of the programme, which aimed altogeth- CT at study and recreation, with the pole possibly as a future problem"
 MT. Bradley said also: Tt seems that the newspaper men are continually mis- quoting us and even a ten-word cable gram which have just received is not clear. If l have any statement to make later I will make 1t through the Asso- ciated Press"

BRESCIA FLIGHTS
 NOT SUCCESSFUL

Brescia, Italy, September s.-The avia- tion meeting which many noted aeronauts will take part opened today under con- ditions not altogether suspicious. Many thousands of spectators gathered around the field, but they were forced to bear number of disappointments. as. with the exception of short flights by Glenn H. Curtiss, the American aviator. and Ble- riot, the attempt of other aviators to fly were failures.
 Several accidents occurred. Bleriot col- lided with tree, the propeller of his ma chine being broken He was not hurt.
 Anseni also broke the propeller of his machine in test flight and Lieutenant Salderara later came to grief in Wright machine, which was damaged. It was intended originally that Lafebvre, who was killed yesterday at Juvisy. should be the pilot of this machine Lieutenant Calderara took his place today. Scarcely had he started when the aeroplane tilted so violently that in the effort to bring 1t on an even keel again the rudder runner was smashed.
 The honors of the day went to Curtiss.

SEEKS ENTRY
 TO MERIDIAN

Meridian. Miss, September S.-(Special) It was learned this morning that the Louisville and Nashville Railroad com pany is looking over the ground with view of extending it's line into Meridian from Linden, Ala. giving Meridian direct connection with Montgomery. P. Sid Jones, formerly agent for the Louis vile and Nashville at Birmingham, but now travelling freight agent for the same road with headquarters at Louisville, and nephew of President Milton H. Smith of the Louisville and Nashville, is in the city today gathering data and prospectus for the building of the proposed line into Meridian. It has always been a mystery to Meridian people why the Louisville and Nashville did not make the connec- ton between Linden and Meridian, a dis tance of 75 or 30 miles. Between the two points there Is a rich tract of timber and the country roundabout is thickly populated. The building of such line will be big thing for Meridian, for besides giving a direct connection with Montgomery, 1t will also bring practical ly all of the Choctaw county trade to this city. Heretofore all of the trade that has come from that section has been by wagon route.
 Meridian was visited this afternoon by a rain and electrical storm. during which time the precipitation was 36. Lightning struck the residence of H. E. Richter, on Twenty-seventh avenue, setting it on fire. The fire was extinguished by the department after the roof had been con- sumed Lightning also struck several shade trees in the city No one was injured so far as can be ascertained. The storm Is thought to have been only local.
 Rabbi Max Raisin of Temple Beth Israel returned from his annual Euro pean trip tonight During his absence from Meridian he was married to Miss FIossye Steinhart of New York. Upon returning from Europe Mrs. Raisin stopped in New York and will not join her husband here for several weeks.

Views of Willis L. Moore.

Washington, September s.-When Prof. Willis L. Moore, president of the National Geographical society, was acquainted to- day with the statements of Commander Feary and Dr. Cook. indicating a serious clash between the two and the raising of the question of veracity as to which was the first to reach the pole, he confirmed the wisdom of the course adopted last night by the society in deciding to await the production of positive truth on this important point. Professor Moore is still of the opinion that a careful scrutiny by astronomical experts of the observations taken by the explorers will suffice to demonstrate the soundness of the claims made by Peary and Cook and such an ex- animation will surely be had before the National Geographic society commits it. self.

He became i'll last Mon- day, his condition not being considered alarming, and no apprehension was felt until Sunday morning. when he suffered a relapse, ending in death.
 An inquest and autopsy held by Coro- ner J. w. Gillespie Sunday determined beyond doubt that Myrtle Dorsey, daugh- ter of Alderman Dorsey, came to her death by drowning in Chattanooga creek. and that the body bore no marks of violence. Rumors had been af1oat that the girl had been foully dealt with, and her remains were disinterred by petition of several citizens of South Chattanooga that an inquest be held.

TENNESSEE FIRE
 LOSSES HEAVY Chattanooga's Proportion Has Been Very Small FLAWS IN NEW CITY HALL Mayor Does Not Want to Accept New Building Because He Does Not Think 1t Comes Up to
 Specifications.

Chattanooga September S.-(Special)- According to compilation made in Chi cago Tennessee's fire losses for the past five years reach a total of approxi . mately s20.oo0,oO0, a larger loss for that period than reported by any other state in the union. Chief Toomy of the local fire department commenting on the sta- tistics said that Chattanooga has fur nshed a very small part of the huge aggregate shown throughout the state. "speaking conservatively," said Chief Toomy. ss0o.0oO will cover the losses by fire in Chattanooga for the last five years.

Chattanooga will not readily accept from the contractors and architects the new city building, Just completed and ready to be turned over. This ceremony Is scheduled to take place some time this week, and 1t is stated that number of objections against receiving the building will be presented. The strongest point to be raised against the new city hall is the inferior grade of stone used in its construction. The mayor insists that the wood used In the flooring does not come up to the specifications, and has asked that it be not painted until a more thor ough examination can be made Other flaws have been found in the building by the mayor among them the alleged inferiority of the stone in the walls.

ROOSEVELT AMBITION REALIZED.
sowles over Three Lions in Three
Shots, Fourth Being Killed
by Kermit.

Nairobi, British East Africa.-Four
lions were trophies of ex-President
Roosevelt's camp in the Mau hills
Saturday night, and the two hundred
or more native followers were rejoic-
ing with the American party in the
celebration Of the unusually good luck.
The lions were bagged Friday, and
Colonel Roosevelt's mighty gun
brought three of them to earth, each
on the first shot. Thus one of the
presidents fondest ambitions has been
realized, and he is proud, too, that the
fourth jungle king fell before the rife
of his son, Kermit, who, however, took
three shots to kill his quarry.
Both father and son are jubilant. 1t
was their first lion hunt, and so mag
nificent a kill was far beyond their
expectations, but lions have been plen-
tiful in the hills for the past month,
and the English hunter, w. w. Selous,
has been out for several days laying
plans for their extinction. How well
he succeeded can be seen of the re-
suits Of Fridays chase.

TIMED Saturday night. They refused
to embark for distribution to the va

The marines belong to the old dis

General Schefket, commanding, lost
no time in bringing the mutineers to
terms. After they had surrendered,
he said
"It was the last flicker of resist
ance After we had disposed several
battalions of troops and some bat
teries within easy range of the bar
racks, we inquired which 1t was to be
obedience to order or the fate OF
their comrades in the Taxim arsenal.
The white flag was then hoisted on
the barracks.

THE SUGAR TRUST TO Be
PROSECUTED BY GOVERNMENT
Special Attorney Declares There VIII
Be No Let Up, But Cases Will Be
Prosecuted TO q Finish.

New York.-Criminal prosecutions
by the federal government will be be-
gun as a result OF the disclosures in
the recent suit of the government
against the American Sugar Refining
company This announcement was
made by Henry Stimson. who is act
ing as special attorney for the govern,
ment.
Mr.. Stimson's statement followed a
conference with United States District
Attorney Wise in the latter's office
"Of course, there will be criminal
prosecution of the guilty persons,
Mr.. Stimson declared. There will be
no let up, but, on the other hand, the
case will be prosecuted to a finish.
1.-THE corporation has already been
punished criminally by the $134,0oo
penalties imposed he added. That
was a punishment for criminal acts.
The other 81 100000 was restitution of
back duties accruing from false
weighing. The thing for us to do now
is to get at the human beings behind
the corporation, either officer or EN-
ploye, who have been guilty of crimi
nal acts, and punish them. We can
not tell when the prosecution will be
| gin, but it will be as soon as we ge
our testimony ready to present"

Adana.-The emergency hospitals
here contain 500 patients
suffering from wounds, many of
whom are women. The average num-
Der of wounds to each patient is four.
There is great need for food and med
ical supplies. Practically the entire
Armenian population of Adana, $4,000
people, is homeless, without bedding
or clothing, and the food supply in
the shops is exhausted. Some Of the
wounded Armenian women have told
Miss Wallace, an English nurse who
is caring for them, that they We're
shot by the Moslems because they
screamed when they saw their hus-
bands killed before their eyes. Many
Armenian girls were carried on by
the Turks as booty. A large number
mutilated bodies have been found in
the houses of the city.
Conditions in the country surround
ing Adana, as a result of the recent
fanatical Mos1em movements upon
the Christian population, are terrible
Dead bodies are lying out in the
fields. Numberless Armenian farm
