NO TAX INCREASED

Finance Committee Will Not Raise
Question of Increase in Coun-
Gil This Year

All Of the agitation in favor and
against an increase in taxes from l Ia
to l 1-2 per cent has, in the light of re-
cent events, been misspent energy and
anxiety. The question will not be raised
in the general council, as supposed, for
the finance committee, which has had the
subject under consideration and which ten
days ago thought an increase was imper-
alive, has after further reflection and
inquiry, decided that the city can worry
along a while longer on the old rate.
Councilman Martin F. AmOrous, chair
man of the finance committee, stated
Thursday morning that the --<nmIttee
would make no recommendation on the
subject during the present year, If at
all. 1t is the disposition of the finance
committee to delay an increase in the

ton was created here Tuesday afternoon
by the message received from Captain r.

branch of the Georgia railroad, at Bar
nett, to the police authorities asking
about the detention of Colley Dallis, a
passenger from this point to Augusta.
who claimed that he had killed his wife in
the upper portion Of the county. The sto-
~ the man told was that he and his
wife, who had lived a dogs and cats ex-
istence, had had several misunderstood
ings. many times throwing various arti-
Giles at each other, and that Tuesday
morning, having a difficulty with her, he
had dragged her to the woods, tied her
to a tree and Drained her Fearing the
consequences. he fled to Washington,
driving a distance of twenty-odd miles in
less than three hours in order 20 catch

Nothing could be learned Of the truth
of the mans statement, other than that
a man who came to Washington with Dali
lis stated that there had been trouble
that morning between the man and his
wife, but denied that the trouble had re-
suited seriously. He said that after the
that she was going TO her people in Au-
gusta, and that Dallis was making his
way there to intercept her. Dallis was

MAYOR OF DALLAS
AN ATLANTA BOY
s. j. Hays, Once Cash Boy at
Keely's, Tells of How the Com
mission Form of Government
Works in His City.

From cash boy in an Atlanta dry goods
store to mayor of Dallas, Tex, and one
of the most prominent men in the Lone
Star state, is brief but true history of
S. ]. Hays, who with his wife and chill
dren, are visiting Atlanta Thursday.
They are. stopping over on their way
to New York city.
Mr.. Hays who was the first mayor of
Dallas under the commission plan of
government and who was recently re-
elected, called on Mayor Maddox Thurs
day morning and in reply to queries from
several members of council and others
explained that the commission plan had
worked to the complete satisfaction of
the Dallas people and that they would
that he could see no reason why such a
system of government would not be ad-
vantageous for Atlanta.
Mr.. Hays was born In Griffin, Ga.
When a lad he moved to Atlanta and for
five years was a cash boy in Keely's dry
goods store. From Atlanta he went to
Dallas, where he engaged in the whole
sale paper business, which line he is now
In.
The sterling worth of Mr.. Hays soon
became manifest to his fellow citizens
and he was elected president of the city's
board of education, which office he held
until he was elected mayor two years
ago.
Explaining the operation of the commits
sion plan in Dallas, Mr.. Hays said:
Dallas is a city of 100000 inhabi-
tants There was never any talk of
dishonesty on the part of its officials,
but there was much dissatisfaction at the
loose and inefficient methods of the old
government, it being impossible to fix
responsibility.
weston and Houston under the new style
of government, decided to adopt 1t for
Dallas. The legislature granted a COM
mission government charter and our peo-
pie held mass meetings and organized the
Citizens association, which through COM
nominated the mayor and four
commissioners, one for the finances and
reveneus, one for the waterworks, one
for streets and public improvements, and
one for police and fire.
Men were selected who were not In
politics, who haG not sought the office
and who would be compelled to make
some sacrifice in order to accept There
was some opposition from the old mayor
and other members of the old government,
but they were defeated.
I'm addition to the mayor and COM
missioners the people elect the members
Of the board of education. The auditor or
is nominated by the presi-
dents of the banks and is eletced by the

STEEL CONDITIONS
ARE GOOD SAYS COREY

NEW YORK, May 13.-William E.
Corey, president of the United States
Steel corporation, sailed today on a vaca-
ton trip to Europe. He was a passenger
on the steamer La Provence for Havre.
Mr.. Corey spoke optimistically of steel
conditions and declared that with an
early tariff adjustment and average crops
a speedy return of prosperity might be
expected.
Since the early part of March," said
Mr.. Corey, there has been a gradual and
well sustained improvement in the steel
industry and this Improvement has been
particularly noticeable in the companies
of the United States Steel corporation.
We are now working on a 20 per cent
basis of normal capacity-the highest
since October, 1907. This Improvement is
due to a natural and healthy demand for
steel products. There has also been a
gradual Improvement in prices"

SUPREME COURT REvERSES.
Harrington. while in the Philippines. was
charged with embezzIement and was pros
ecuted and convicted in the civil courts.
Acting on the verdict OF the civil tribunal.
a courtmartial discharged Darlington
from the army.
The case was appealed to the United
States supreme court and a year ago the
decision OF the lower. court was reversed.
Thine supreme court had held that the
charges upon which Darlington was con-
victed were groundless and that the pros
scutiOn was not justified by the evidence.
The higher courts opinion. OF course.
stopped the operation of the verdict of
the lower court. but il could not ratify
the wrong done Darlington by his dis
charge from the army after thirty years
honorable service.
Friends Of Darlington in Washington
have been trying ever since the supreme
