to the stable, Mr.. Mower thought moth
ing of it, until about $50 o'clock, when
the stable reported hat the team had
never shown up, and that they had not
sent for 1t.
When the negro was first brought
down to the stable, it was hardly ten
minutes before 200 or more Holy Roll
ers had congregated there. They almost
stormed the place, and in a religious
frenzy danced and invoked the wrath
of God on the stable manager. The
police were called and in a few minutes
had dispelled the bunch Of fanatics.
The negro Downing was taken down to
the police station, but not until he had
vented his wrath on Mr.. Cook. His
trial will come up in the afternoon ses-
sion of the recorders court, and from
mast experiences with this sect it is
most probable that the police will be on
hand to quell any religious riot.

Whether it was. religious, frenzy or
not that prompted him to steal. GER
tain negro Holy Roller swiped horse
and wagon belonging to Mower & Ho-
bart company late Wednesday AFTERNOON
and drove off with it. He was caught
later delivering a load of wood in it on
Mangum street. He gave his name as
Will Downing.
w. X Mower says the negro came up
TO him at his place on South Broad
street, and said that Mr.. Cook, of the
Empire Stable company, had sent him
for the wagon. The horse and wagon
is put up there every night. And
though the wagon was out on call
then, the nervy Holy Roller hung around
for an hour until it came up. When the
driver got down and went inside, Down

Ray Harroun's Marmon broke the At
lanta speedway record by 4 seconds in
the third event of Thursday mornings
program which opened the three days
racing meet that will offer Atlanta the
chance of seeing at the speedway the
greatest track automobile races yet held
in the United States.
In the opening event, G. S. Strang,
in his Fiat, went after the American
speedway record of 1858 and pushed
it hard when the light power of his car
as compared with the car that made the
record is considered.
The first days program has exhibited
the pick of the racing cars, and furnish
ed excitement and speed enough to keep
the lookerson in the stands keyed up to
the highest pitch.
The meet has begun with a dash and
vim that shows it is to be all the pro-
moters have claimed for it.

There was a tang of winter in the

It wasn't discomforting and served to
whet the appetite for speed and daring.
1t was announced before the races be-
gan that the heats that were to have
been run on each day of the meet be-
tween Ty Cobb and Nap Ruclxer would
be abandoned because of a telegram to
Cobb from the president of the Detroit
team, advising him not to make the
races.
Gate keepers were instructed not to ad-

President DaviIa Will
Ask America for Aid

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 3.-Cablegrams
were received here last night oy rep
resentatiyes of American interests In
Honduras confirming the ASSOCIATED
Press dispatches of the revolutionary
outbreak at Amapala. That the United
states will within the next few days
take an active part In ousting Gen. jose
Valladares, the leader Of the reoeiion,
from his entrenched position on the lit
tIA island of Amapala Is the belier gen.
erallv of business men Of New orleans
who are more or less interested IN Zen
trail American trade
THE Honduran government has very
small army and as Valladares has sever
al hundred armed followers, ana Is re-
ported to have several modern machine
e,1ns. II is thought that President Oa-
villa will ask the assistance Oh sns
Government in tbs efforts to get rid OF
fbe noted dictator and all around trou-
ble-maker of Amapala
The friends here of former president
Manuel Bonila assert that he mas no
connection with the revolt of Valladares.
Noted for his hatred Of foreigners,
vaIIadares recently publicly announced
that he had named his dog Tart In or

WhirIWind Campaign Started
to Raise Subscription on
Which $35, 900 State Appri-
alton Is Conditioned
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE
is TAKING THE LEAD
Special Committee Headed by
w. w. Orr Was Appointed
at Monthly Meeting of Dr.
rectorS Wednesday

A whirlwind campaign to raise 1900
in two days for the Georgia School of
Technology, in order that the institu-
ton may get the $35, 900 previously ap-
propriated by the last state legislature,
has been launched by the directors of
the chamber of commerce.
Assisted by the members of that or
ganization and by the business men of
Atlanta at large, the chamber of COM
merce proposes to raise that fund by
popular subscription within As hours.
Patriotic Atlantians, who are interested
in the prosperity of an institution which
brings hundreds of thousands of dollars
to Atlanta and which educates the young
men of the state to highest practical
usefulness, are urged to help raise this
money.
THE ATLANTA SPIRIT.
The chamber of commerce is appealing
to the famous Atlanta spirit. No institu-
ton in this community means more to
Atlanta than the Georgia Tech. None
serves to advertise his city more widely;
none contributes more to its material
prosperity; none makes better citizens.
The Georgia Tech has become an inte-
grail part of Atlanta.
The money is to be devoted to the
erection of a new shop building at the
Tech, and charging the shop facilities
to accommodate $500 men. The $685.
600 state appropriation is conditioned
absolutely on the raising of $4,000 by
subscription
The chamber Of commerce directors
decided to go into the campaign at their
monthly luncheon served Wednesday at
the M. e. Nj. club. DR.. K. G. Matheson,
president of the Tech school, was pres
ent and made a strong statement, show
ing that while the people of Atlanta
had given Tech about 100000 in the
past 90 years, the students had spent
some 100000 in this community since
the school had been instituted.
COMMITTEE NAMED.
At this meeting which was character
lied by vigor and enthusiasm, W. w.
Orr was made chairman of a special
committee to secure the $4,000. APP
pointed on that committee are the fol-
lowing:

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-Martfai law
has been declared in Honduras as a d.
rect result of the revolt Of Gen. Jose
Valladares, the deposed commandant of
Amalapa, against the government, ac-
cording to cable advices to the state de-
partment today from Minister McCreery
at Tegucigalpa. The port of Amspala
has been closed and the island Is in =
state of siege
GUNGOAT RUSHED.
The United States gun boat Princeton
is in the harbor at Amapala ready to
take hand in the revolution at the first
sign of hostility towards foreigners or
their interests. President Davila is pre-
pairing to send an army against VAL
ladares and in event of the governments
failure to restore order on the island the
United States probably will be asked to
interfere. 1t would not be surprising IL
Commander Hayes. OF the Princmeton,
acting under instructions from the state
department should send an armed force
ashore at any time to take Valladares
into custody. However, department Of
ficials refuse to discuss the possibility
of this beyond asserting that American
interests will be properly safe-guarded-
NO DISORDER REPORTED.
Commander Hayes telesraphed the
navy department today an follows:
1.-THE commandant of Amapala has In
formed the foreign consuls that he has
no intention of injuring foreign subjects
or foreign property. There is no disor-
der at present. !"
Little faith is put in valladares' prom
ises by officials of the United States
government and the Princeton has IN
structions sufficiently liberal to permit
| her commander to meet any situation
that arises.
while there are few Americans at
Amapala, considerable American proper

n,andant OF the island of Amapala, the
Pacific port of Honduras, still held the

He has assumed a "come-and-take-me

General Valladares, whose implacaole
hatred of Americans led him into Of
lenses against foreigners generally. has
long held undisputed sway on Amapaia
which, being the site of the custom
house, now affords him an excellent
startegic position.
President Davila yesterday called upon
him to surrneder. Valladares promptiy
and emphatically refused, and apparently
Is nreparing for hostilities from what
ever source they may develop.
