CHARGES BASELESS
SAYS LEGISLATURE

Atlanta, June 30.-Replying to charges
against officials of the State sanitarium
a special legislative investigating commit
tee today presented reports to both
houses of the general assembly in which
the charges were declared to be vile
Injustice to the management of the SAM
tarium
The report declares the officials of the
santa RUS to be honest and capable, but
deplores the misery appropriations made
for the support of the institution. The re-
port further declared many ineligible per-
sons have found homes in The sanitarium,
making it a huge prison. The negro ward
is declared to be too cramped to make
it a fit place for human beings. Va
rious recommendations for Improvements
are made.
That warm fight is planned on the
compulsory education bill was indicated
in the lower house of the general as
sembly today when Representative Lit
tleton, author of the bill, offered res
olution providing that 200 copies of the
bill be printed and distributed to the
members of the house. The resolution
was adopted.
In the senate the principal action was
the passing Of the house on the salaries
of courts of appeals judges from $4,000
to $4,000.

BRITISH BUDGET
WILL BE FOUGHT

London, June 30.-Chancellor Lloyd
George having retained all the features
of the previous budget in the current bud
get the unionists will oppose every stage
of its progress The Redmond followers
are disappointed at the retention of the
whisky tax, but it is not likely that they
will seriously obstruct the budget while
the fate of the veto power of the house
of lords still hangs in the balance.
The total expenditures include the de-
felt of e26, 24S,0O0 uncollected during the
last fiscal year owing to the clash be-
tween the two houses, all of which was
collected since the belated budget was
passed. For 1901 the chancellor estl-
mated a revenue from taxation of R142,
455 600 pounds and from other sources
a27,290,o00 pounds. Adding to this ar
rears due from the fiscal year 1909-l0 he
f1guredShis total and surplus.
The chancellor said he felt justified in
estimating the state revenue on the as
sumption that the volume of trade this
year and next would be greater than the
country had ever experienced before.
He proposed to retain the duty on spir-
its unchanged and while admitting that
there had been loss of Ell, 900 pounds
in these duties, said that the consump-
ton of spirits had been decreased by TO-
000. 600 gallons from the figures of the pre-
ceding year, and that the moral gain to
the state far outweighed the loss In reve-

REACTION SUCCEEDS
SLUMP IN THE MARKET

New York, June 3O.-The ebbing tide of
values in the stock market began to go
out this morning from the very opening
with a rush that showed the lock-gates
were wide open. The great banking in
terests, upon whose tolerance all move
ments of speculative expansion rest, seem
ed well willing to let readJustment take
its course unhampered, and rumors that
j. p Morgan was holding a conference
in his office with other powerful f1nan-
ciers were met with the statement that
Jr., had been at their office today.
During the morning hours the market
seemed to have no bottom. An enormous
line of selling orders had accumulated
over night, and from the size of the
blocks that came out it seemed positive
that the holding pools of earlier upward
movements were dissolving.
Steel common broke through the price
of ITO, at which it had been said it
would be pegged; Union Pacific sold at a
decline of 20 points from its mark a week
ago, and there were many other new
low marks for the season.
Late in the afternoon there was a re-
covery, due In part to the profit taking
of shorts and the lessened volume of trad
ing seemed to indicate that an easier feel
ing would follow violent readjustment of
earlier hours.
Total sales for the day were 1,515 us
shares.

TRIES
TO KILL HIMSELF

Chattanooga, June So.-Frank Feb
ringer, who was captain of the Reelfoot
Lake night riders and who turned states
evidence at the trial in Union City, today
attempted to commit suicide In this city
by taking laudanum. Fehringer had been
in Chattanooga for several weeks, but
his presence here was unknown until a
few days age when his wife applied for
divorce. Today the night rider captain
went to his wife and attempted to effect
q reconciliation. She refused to hear him.
Fehrnger went to the street, swallowed
the laudanum and sat down on the curb
stone to die. His condition was discov-
cred in time to save his life.
Since the trials resulting from the muir
der of Capt Quentin Rankin at Reelfoot
Lake in 1903 Fehringer who was given
immunity because of his confession has
been constantly on the move, fearing
violence at the hands of members of the
night rider band.
