ES MADE BY TOM
WATSON

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 14.-Governor-
elect Hoke Smith will probably give
out a statement in a few days, prob
ably early in the week, in answer to
the attacks of Hon. Thomas E. Wat
son. Investigations of the Atlanta
Georgian, which were made public on
Saturday, show clearly that Watson
has no foundation for the sensation
al charges he has made against Mr..
Smith.
While little attention has been paid
to the Watson charges it has been
decided that it would be best to make
reply in that some few may not un-
derstand the silence of Governor-eiect
Smith has been ignoring Mr., Watson.
1t is not the purpose of Mr., Smith
to get into a controversy with the
magazine editor. He is simply to Is
sue q card, it Is said, briefly replying
to the malicious charges made by
Watson.
The statement will be awaited with
interest throughout the state.

Havana Nov 14.-Judge Miyeres,

ton of Mai.-Gen. Pine Guerra, after
taking the declarations of r. R. Stein

guido, being in the category of high
officials exempt from the jurisdiction
of the inferior courts, the charges
have been sent to the criminal branch
of the superior court.
The judges action is especially i'm

bRANTLEY MAY
GO TO SENATE
LOCAL CONGRESSMAN MENTION
ED AS PROBABLE SUCCESSOR
TO LATE SENATOR CLAY.
Generally Believed, However, That He
Would Refuse to Accept Place Un.
der Conditions-Joe Terrell Will
Probably Get the Place

Among the list Of senatorial possi-
biiities mentioned to succeed the late
Senator A. s. Clay, who died sudden
ly in Atlanta Sunday, is Congressman
w. G. Brantley, of this city. His name
appears among a list of several well
knoWn GeorSians mentioned, includ-
ing Clark Howell W. w. Osborne, j.
VI. Terrell, E. II. Galloway, C. r. Pen
dleton and others. This list of possi-
hilities was sent out from Atlanta
Sunday night, and while OF course,
Gov. Brown has not yet mentioned
any of the above named Georgians,
1t is expected that one of them will
tie appointed.
Whether or not Congressman
Brantley would accept the honor if
1t was offered him is very doubtful.
The appointment will be for only sew
eral months, or until the legislature
eonvenes in June, and in order to ac-
cept the appointment Congressman
Brantley would have to resign from
succeed himself in the senate before
the legislature.
1t is the concensus of opinion
among local Brown supporters that
ex-Gov. Terrell can have the appoint.
rnent for the asking, and it is gener,
ally believed that he will get the ap
pointment and will serve until next
June. New conditions will then arise
rs it will be up to the legislature to
elect successor to fill the unexpired
term of Senator Clay, who had been
elected until 1915. 1t is believed by
many that Governor-Elect Hoke Smith
will more than likely be an aspirant
and he, of course, will be the most
formidable candidate before the leg
islature. The governer-elect, how
ever. will then be governor, and
should he be elected to the senate
the governors Office would be vacant
and 1t would be necessary to elect
U new governor. The president 81 the
senate would serve in the capacity
until a special election could be held
The death of Georgia's junior Unit
ed States senator has put a new as
pect on the political situation in
Georgia, and even before his remains
had been prepared for burial the pol
1ticians were busy figuring on the fin
al result of the appointment, the elec
TiOn of the legislature, etc.
AS far as Congressman Brantley is
concerned, while he is the strongest
and ablest man mentioned in con
nection with the place, and while hun
dreds of his admirers throughout the
state will rally to his support should
he seek the appointment, under the
circumstances it is not believed that
he will surrender the Office to which
he has just been elected for two
years. Congressman Brantley is not
in the city at present, however, and
his position in the matter is not
known.

quah, Okla, informing me that a man
named Lawrence r. Cook has been en-
rolled on the Cherokee census as my
husband. I may state with emphasis
