JACK JOHNSON SORE ON JAIL.
Negro Prize Fighter Is Not Allowed
to Eat Chicken There.

A San Francisco dispatch says:
Jack Johnson can't get out of jail
even under promise to leave Cali
fornia.
AS soon as he learned that the
supreme court had ruled that he
must serve his twenty-five day SEN
tence for automobile speeding he
got short respite from cleaning the
stables at the county Jail and hur-
ried with a deputy sheriff to the
district attorneys office, where he
told District Attorney Fickert he
would leave California if liberated.
The district attorney turned deaf
ear to the negro's appeal.
"But if 1 could only have little
chicken-just a leg" Johnson ap-
pealed.
Fickert told Johnson that the tax
payers would only pay for coffee and
beans and corned beef on Sundays.
''I'll get out of the state if they'll
let me CO." appealed Johnson.

Messrs. Moore, Winburn and Bey-
mer objected to being summoned to
testify in this case, and were present
with their attorneys to interpose a
general objection.
Il am perfectly willing for the
commission to decide this question
OF the right to compel a witness
attendance here" said Mr.. McLen-
don. IF it has no such authority I
think the people of Georgia ought
70 know Of the commissions impo-
tency."
That was all he said in reply to
MT Watkins lengthy objections.
fhe commission went into executive
session, and in a minute or SO an
nounced that the objection was over
ruled. AS all of the ohjecting par
ties were present this ended the mat
ter.
Harry Moore's bitter objection 10
becoming S. G.. McLendon's witness
may be understood by those cogni-
zant Of some history in regard to
port rate matters in Georgia. For
a great many years the Atlanta
Freight Bureau has been fighting
for port rates for Atlanta.
Mr.. Moore has been one of the
most persistent and ardent advo-
Gates OF that action, and as more or
less Of the political tragedies of re-
cent years evolved about this ques-
ton his strenuous objection to be-
coming a witness for the man who
knocked out Atlanta port rates may
be seen.
When the commission announced
its decision Mr.. Moore looked any
thing but happy, while Mr.. McLen-
don smiled in a pleased sort of way.
The hearing occupied practically
the entire day, and went intricately
into the question Of rates.

ton of West Virginia was elected Sec
rotary OF the caucus, the two last

lowers of William J. Bryan prefer to
De designated, met in the Office of

ton.
1t WIS decided that the progress
siVes should vote for Senator New

however, when it was learned that

under the leadership Of Senator
money during the last congress,
would not object to receiving the
complimentary vote of those who
would not vote for Mr.. Martin.

to the last minute.
Senator Martin was opposed bv

Coca cola won part of it's fight
against the governments case when
Judge Sanford sustained, in a de-
gree, the defense's motion for per-

case in it's favor.
He sustained the motion on the
point that caffeine, which is found
IN coca cola syrup, was not a dele
ferrous ingredient.
However, he overruled the motion
on points relating to the misbrand-
ing feature, holding that those were
questions for the jury to pass upon.
Thereupon counsel for the gov

had mapped his entire western coast.
Insistent pressure was brought
on him to give Japan coaling sta
ton on Magdalena bay. On the 9TH

President Diaz temporized until
knowledge of his situation reached
the white house. From the latter,
to his considerable relief, came an
unmistakable intimation that Japan
was not to have the station, although
the same privilege for the United
States was not insisted upon. D1az
