Mexico City. May 2O.-Although the government today showed a dispo- sition to belittle the significance at tached to the halt in the voyage of General Bernardo Reyes, it is con ceded that Diaz and his advisers, de- termined that another discordant note must not be sounded. have ordered him to remain in Havana until peace negotiations are concluded.
 Through friends of Madero it IS known that he and his advisers some days ago demanded the detention or General Reyes Friends of Reyes in dignantly deny that he would be the source of trouble should he return now. but many remember his popu- Iaritv at the time he departed for Europe and are guessing as to how far his ambitions might lead him.

 on of Arizona in today's debate in the house on the statehood resolution. Mir.
 Cameron said he had warned the people of Arizona against the incorporation in-

 He recommended the plan proposed
 by the republican members of the com mittee on territories. which provides for
 the immediate approval of New MeXi- cos constitution and the submission to
 the people of Arizona of the question of striking out the recall feature.
 Representative Olmstead of Pennsyl- vania. republican. took a similar posi-
 ton today and gave new impetus to
 the presidential boom of Champ Clark.
 Mir Olmstead referred tD the newspa- per report that three-quarters of the democratic members of the house fla vored Governor Woodrow Wilson for the presidency.
 Representative Graham of Illinois said he did not favor the recall of Judges. but that if a state wants it. it is entitled to act on it's own judgment. 1 Opposition Co the democratic statehood plan was voiced by Representative i Mondell of Wyoming. Representatives Dupree of Louisiana and Allan of Ohio, democrats. indorsed the resolution. Republican Leader Mann contended | that it had been the purpose of the makers of the federal constitution to admit all states upon an equal footing with the original states, but that in the admission of several. conditions had been imposed by congress.

INDICTMENTS QUAsHED
 AGAINST BOSS COX COURT FINDS CONSPIRACY
 AGAINST HIM.
mon Pleas Judge Accused.

Cincinnati. ohio. May 2O.-Declar- ing that the county prosecutor, a judge of the court of common pleas and perhaps also the January grand jury had conspired to deprive George B. Cox of his constitutional rights. Judge Dickson today quashed the in- dictments against the republican leader.
 Prosecuting Attorney Hunt imme- diately took steps to have the case appealed to the higher court, his ob- ject being to prolong the life of the indictments and force Cox to trial on charges of perjury.
 The undisputed evidence shows. " said Judge Dickson. that the grand jury and the prosecuting attorney, and the judge of the court, Frank M. German. sitting in room No. 6, en- tered into d conspiracy deliberately to deprive the accused of his con stitutional rights and to have him rushed to Batavia, Clermont county. Ohio, without any hearing whatever.
 The affidavits of MT. Hunt are lengthy. Thus it was impossible for Judge German tO have read or to have heard them. as the law requires. The whole transaction did not occupy five minutes. It is to be hoped the grand jury were innocent and misled and Were not parties to that con- spiracy."
 Solicitor Hunt said Judge Dickson action was no surprise to the people of this county. The decision, he said is not the law. and will be held er- roneous by the supreme court of Ohio

COTTON Still
KEEPS RUSH
TO MARKET
AMERICUS TOTAL NOW $4,000
Months Close May Find 1t
Equal to Last Year

While the cotton fields of Sumter
are not as white as two weeks ago, OF
even a week ago, there yet remains 4
quantity of the staple to be marketed
here, and in the sum total the receipts
for the season will, in the opinion Of
the warehousemen here, run ahead of
the 1910 receipts.
Up to this time, even, Americus has
received more than $4,000 bales wagon
cotton-or very near the usual sea-
sons receipts.
1t is true of at least one warehouse
here, and the same may be true OF
others, that the receipts to this date
already equal the grand total for the
entire last season.
81 have been agreeably surprised at
our seasons increased business" said
a local warehouseman yesterday. cal
ready We have received to date as
many bales as we handled all of last
season, and we still have several
months left in which to receive cot
ton"
And this is true as regards the 9th
er warehouses here There is really
no bumper" crop, but the output will
be far ahead of the rather short crop
of 1910 And if prices had continued
good the farmer would have been in
better condition than in years.
Few of them, it is said, are holding
back any great amount of cotton, and
of the $4,000 bales marketed here al
ready it is a fair conclusion that %,
900 bales have been sold as they were
marketed.

WRECK Showed need
OF Better HOSPITAL
Not a Single Ward Vacant
Here Now

When news of the recent wreck near
Cordele was brought to Americus, it
became known upon investigation that
every ward at the local hospital was
! filled, so that in case of an emergency,
whereby the victims would have been
rushed to Americus, there would have
been no hospital facilities available for
them.
The first inquiry made at the hospit-
al after the wreck was concerning the
possibility of securing Accommodations,
if they should be needed, for any who
might have been wounded in the
wreck. This inquiry brought to light
the status of affairs at the hospital,
and showed that at the present time
there is not single ward available
there in case of local need or any en-
ergency such as might have arisen
from the Cordele wreck.
The hospital authorities were not
slow to see the imperative need there
is for more adequate hospital facilities
The ladies of the Hospital Association,
especially, took note of this unfortun-
ate condition of affairs, with re-
newed determination to see that the
lack of Accommodations existing may
be speedily removed.
The committee of the Association
which is now busily soliciting sub
scriptions for the erection of the new
hospital building went to work with
Increased interest and enthusiasm 70
raise the fund that is now needed 20
make sure the completion of the pro-
posed $4,000 building.
They are meeting with encouraging
response and substantial subscriptions
On account of the absence from the
city on Tuesday afternoon of several
members of the Association who were
directly connected with the work in
hand, the meeting of the organization
which was to have occurred last
Tuesday afternoon, was postponed un-
til next Tuesday afternoon at 4
o'clock at the residence of Mrs. G. Z.
Hawkins. 1t is hoped that still better
results will be reported to that meet
ing when it is held at that time.

by unanimous vote authorized an issue
of bonds of $4,000 for the purpose oi
building a $4,000 addition to Gordon
institute, extending the sewerage sys-
tenn and enlarging the electric light
and water plant.
These bonds were offered for sale n
the open market and the bids received
were at such that the city feels proud
of the standing she has in the financial
world as nothing more directly shows
this than the basis upon which her
bonds are received by those seeking
investments.
But the most attractive feature of
this bond sale is the fact that the
highest bid was by a local bank. The
Citizens bank of Barnesyille takes the
entire issue of $4,000 at handsome
premium.
