THE CLIMAX Of
PRESIDENT TRIP
Macon, Georgia, Surpassed
Any City So Far Visited in
Its Welcome

Macon, Ca, Nov. 4.-President
Taft's welcome in Macon was one of
the most enthusiastic received any
where on the presidential tour. The
streets were lined with thousands of
citizens and school children and with
the decoration were suggestive of
Taft day." live possums and persim-
mons formed part of the elaborate
scheme. The stores, offices and homes
were gay with the national colOrs,
mixed with q liberal display of con-
federate emblems:
!. 1t was nearly 8 o'clock this morn
ing when President Taft awoke in
his private car. He was greeted by
q committee of Macon citizens who
had gathered at the union station
where the presidential train had been
tracked over night. and was then es-
corted to the residence of Congress
man c. L. Bartlett for breakfast. From
the Bartlett home the president was
escorted to the state fair grounds.
where he was accorded a hearty
ovation and made short speech.
In introducing the president Col.
NJ. e. Harris made one of the happiest
speeches heard during the trip. He
spoke as follows:
On the 10Th of last January. in the
capitol city of. Georgia. it fell to my
lot to introduce to the students Of the
Technical school the, then president
select of this great nation.
said then, as feel still, that this
was one of the most conspicuous
events that had occurred in all my
life. Standing before that student
body of five hundred young engineers
in Georgia's great capitol to present
to them for a, cordial greeting and
an address one who had Just been
selected to preside over the destintties
of this mighty republic, conceived to
be an honor and a distinction worthy
to crown a life time Of labors. i,
But today, in this city where my
life has been spent, among my neigh
bors and friends, and in this match
less gathering Of the people Of this
dear old state. how much higher In
dignity is the. mission with which I
have been entrusted, for come 70
Introduce to you the chief magistrate
Of the most powerful nation on earth,
who is here to greet you In q social
way, and to speak to you as your fell
low citizen among these momentous
surroundings. Then he was only the
elected of the people. but today he
comes dressed In the robes of once
and armed with all the powers that
belong to the great constitutional po-
sition which he flllls in this great con-
stitutional government.
An army Of boyanets is behind him;

KING MAY FLEE
Flight Of Alfonso Would Not Surprise
80 France.

Paris, Nov. 4.-No uncensured news
Is leaking out of Spain by telegraph.
Inc situation in the country, however.
is very serious, and French statesmen
would not be at all surprised any day
to hear that King Alfonso had been
Obliged to flee from his country.
The indications are that Spafn
means to extend her operations In
Morocco even to making war upon the
sultan. 1t is pointed out that the
present campaign has already cost
Spain great deal of money. The
temptation to embark upon scheme
of conquest is therefore necessarily
strong. Spain already showed signs
of going beyond the Algeciras act
when she announced an extension"
Of her sphere of influence" This
question for many months has been
supposed to have been the subject Of
special agreement between France
and Spain, the details of which have
not been made public; but It was un-
derstood that this agreement did not
annul any q Of the provisions of the
Algeciras act. Following upon the
signature Of the agreement 1t was an
nounced by France and Germany on
the same day that an understanding
had been reached between Germany
and France concerning Moroccan af-
fairs. Fs
The details of this have since been
made public. The test Of their un-
derstandings appear likely now. to be
applied. for the German press is
strong in denunciation of SPANS at
tempt at conquest" The French
press. 80 far from approving Spain's
action, considers that IL anything is
to be done France must have snare
of the work. taking her share of the
spoils. Great Britain. on the other
hand. having abdicated her old rights
in Morocco in exchange for q free
hand in Egypt, has now only one
course in regard to this part of Africa
and that Is to see that the act of Al
geciras is respected.
It will be very painful to have to
differ from an ally. but 1t appears cer-
tain that II Spain proceeds to, carry
the war to Fee. the outcome of the
military operations will almost GER
tainly bring her into European en-
tanglement, ~ =

not given out any statement concern
ing the affair. The first intimation
that the engineer and fireman of the
mail train had of pending danger was
when they had reached point about
thirty yards distant from the caboose.
Both caught sight of the train at the
same time and both jumped from the
engine. On account of the approach
to the town the train had been brought
down to lower rate of speed than is
usually maintained. F. Weaver was
the engineer and Mat Peterson the
fireman.
Horses We're Shot.
Only few of the horses in the
stock car were killed outright by the
wreck, the flames being subdued
early enough to prevent their meeting
death in that matter also. After the
confusion of the wreck was over an
examination of the horses showed that
80 many of them had been very badly
burned and they were then shot to
death. At noon only seven of the
horses were alive.
The ranchmen were enroute to the
eastern markets with their stock and
as is customary were travelling in the
caboose.
Force Was Terrific.
The force of the smash must have
been very great for the front trucks
of the engine as we'll as the trucks
of the caboose had been driven clear
back to the tender. while the boiler
was projecting into the end of the
stock car.
AS soon as possible the coaches of
the mail train were returned to Tow
ner. Both trains were east bound
The track had not been cleared up
at noon today. although crew of
men had been engaged on the job
during the entire forenoon.
