ferred. The long and the shorhof 1t IS, that
the making Of that loan IN Cuba ruined the
bank. If they could have had the use of the
$4,000 which was tied up in Ladson's specu-
latlon, they could have survived the panic. AS
it was, the bank had to close doors, 5000 vic
TINS of the failure suffered some of them
severely. Many of the depositors were work
ing people, men, women and children of At
lanta. Deprived of their ready cash, they
had to face the rigors of a severe winter, when
it was almost impossible for all who needed it
to secure work. What some of those depos-
tors must have suffered would probably make
a touching chapter of human misery The
Bank went into the hands of Receivers, who
handled the Cuban land deal successfully,
and they finally collected on it large sum
of money. But the fact remains that the in
ability of the bank to use that amount of their
money when they most needed it, caused the
failure. The stockholders never will get a
dollar. The depostors have got fifty-fve
per cent, after waiting from November, 1907,
up to now. The Receivers are doubtful as to
aohether the remainder aoiW ever be paid.
Therefore the loss IS something ouer q million
dollars, besides aoh0t the Stockholders lost.
The net results are, that the Cuban land deal

thousand dollars, at q cost of more than o.
million dollars Of innocent peoples money!
Now, when Ladson telegraphed to Presi-
dent Gompers the moral support of the Ma
tional Farmers Union in Mr. Gompers' de-
fance Of the Courts, / called attention to the
fact that L0dSOn IS q dangerous man. He a00s
committing the farmers, and aoas zeadi7lg
them aOhe4e he qU0uzd giUe them as much
trouble as he gaze the Neal Bank. With
out writing to me to know my authority for
my charge against Ladson in connection with
the Neal Bank, John Lee takes this Atlanta
lawyers statements as gospel truth, and went
to writing letters all over the State, defend
ing Ladson and presenting Ladson's false
hoods to the Union, behind closed doors, as
being the truth of the case. In other words,
John Lee, qcith0ut prov0cati0n, and q0ithout
giving me any chance to set him right, COM
tr0UerSy, and did has zevez best to deceive his
brother members of the Farmers Union.
The gravity of Lees offence will be under
stood by any one who examines Sections 212
and 213 of the Code of Georgia. He and his
two confederates, Thornton and Many, could
have BEEN sent to the chain gang, beyond all
doubt, had Charlie HILL Solicitor General,
indicted them for misdemeanor under those
sections, rather than 70 ra felony in the sec
ton which follows There is difference of
opinion among lawyers as to the first two
sections, but there is no difference as to the
third. Because of that difference of opinion,
the criminals escaped justice.
1t occurred to me that if the Farmers
Union has to keep lawyer employed all the
time, it might at least get an honest one. Be
Sides it seems to me dangerous to have the
same lawyer as the Labor Unions of Atlanta.

PEACE PROSPECT FADES.
Union Recognition in the Way Of
EXPRESS Strike Settlement.

NEW YORK, November 4.-Union rec
ognition. the rock ON which it was appre-
hended the peace movement in the ex-
press strike might split. today appeared
to be a stumbling block in the way of ef-
fective preliminary negotiations between
companies and men.
Two of the companies still held out
against treating with the strikers except
as former employees. The men declared.
while they do not demand a CLOSED shop
they must insist upon recognition of their
organization. This state of affairs has
brought the situation to a renewed dead
lock. and the outlook for peace, which
was so promising yesterday, seemed de-
cidedly poor today.
Steps to hamper the companies in the
use Of strikebreakers have been taken by
the strike leaders in invoking an old or
dinance providing all express drivers must
be licensed. 1t is declared none Of the
men who have succeeded strikers as driv-
ers of companies teams have secured L.
censes.

Foot Ball and Education.


I thank you for your splendid editorials
on foot ball. l wish every parent in our
country could have read them and appre-
ciated your manly stand. I notice in to-
days papers two boys killed since you
gave your warning. I am a travelling
man. therefore not rich, never had the
chance to attend college. Never went 70
school six months. SO I do not know
the relations between student and pro-
lessor. Yet think can see how a boy
would disobey his parents wishes and
play when his professor openly Endorsed
the game. now speak that I know.
l worked hard, sacrificing here and there,
to educate my son. a bright, promising
young man. He took course in me-
chanical drawing and electrical engineer
ing. was qualified for the best of life 8
work. But on leaving college played a
game too many, was crushed In lower
spine, sat a helpless cripple In a re-
clining chair for four. years and passed
away. The cost Of schooling was not
comparable with the cost of suffering
too tender and delicate for the mind to
portray. He went in his young manhood.

during his helplessness: II wanted to

understand how the management Of our
highest institutions of knowledge can.
for one moment, tolerate a game more
barbarous and brutal than the Mexican
bull fights, or how the nation, for play
sake. can permit our young men to be
slain by the hundreds, by our highest
Christian institutions Of learning indors-
ing. yes indorsing. a game that has
killed. is killing. and will continue to
kill ] am speaking of the killed. not the
hundreds that are made cripples for life.
Should any foreign power come in and
kill even one of our students would not
the whole nation arouse and annihilate the
intruder? Why. then. should the men
whom we pay to educate our boys be
permitted, as educators. to indorse a
game 80 brutal? It would be far better
for our Christian country were these pro-
fessors who indorse such a brutal game
placed behind bars and our boys go back
to common schools. under a law forbid
ding the game ever to be played again.
1t is certainly no sign of Christian civil
lization for the game to go on.

APPEAL MADE TO COURT.
r. o, Clifford Cited to Show Why II,
Should Not Support Wife.

Justice Gould today cited Robert o.
Clifford to show cause next Friday why
he should not be compelled to support his
wife. Mary A. Clifford, and their child.
The rule is based on a petition of the
wife filed by Attorney James A. O'Shea,
In which she tells OF their marriage
March %. 1907, and that they separated
August 1 last. Mrs. Clifford says her
husband carried out a system of cruel
and persistent nagging and by his al
legged ungovernable temper, abusive treat
ment and Incorporate habits compelled
her to leave him.
She also charges that he threatened her
life and being apprehensive Of her safety
and fearful of the life Of the child she
had him arrested. July % he was bound
over to keep the peace and cease from
annoying her, she AYERS.
The defendant fs. "a clerk in the patent
office at $50 a mouth and receives a PEN
sion OF SIT monthly. sbut, his wife says,
since August 1 last he has not con-
tributed anything to sther' household sex-
penses. She tells the court she has been
obliged TO obtain employment as a dress
maker at about 81 a day, but Is now in
poor health and needs assistance from
her husband.

other comforts to carry them through
the winter.
These matters were taken up at the
meeting last night. 1t was finally decided
that Mrs. McKeon. sister Of Mrs. Gray.
who is now in charge of the children, anu
J.. T. Pryor and f. p. Farr should act
