PURVS ARRESTED ON FRAUD CHARGE Head of Atlanta Loan COm- pany Used Mails to
 Defraud

Atlanta, October Exchanged with using the mails 10 defraud and to promote lot tery, whereby they secured nearly $500, coo, Richard Purvis, president of the Southern Loan and Trust company of this city, and three other officers of the same concern, were indicted by the federal grand jury here today. The other of ficers were Ernest o. Helm, vice presi- dent; Guy King, secretary, and w. N. Smith, a former president.
 It IS charged that the company sold loan contracts, of which only a part could be fulfilled and that in buying a contract an investor was really purchasing lottery ticket The company according to the government, sold these contracts in series of 100 and granted loans in accordance with the number on the contract.
 If the number was large, it is declared, it was improbable the investor ever would secure loan. Contracts for $500 loans usually were sold by the company. The investor was to pay $5 per month until he had paid $50, and then was to be en- titled to a loan for this amount.
 The government charges that letters de- taiiing the company's scheme have been sent throughout the south. The com rany's affairs have been in the courts for some months, and its business is now iri the hands of Alex W. Smith. Jr. as trustee in bankruptcy, who, it is declared, topes to realize between $100.000 and Sl50,- Geo from assets in the final settlement. Puryis and his associates were arrested ast July at the instance of postoffce in- gpectors and placed under bonds, and these bonds will not be increased pend ing trial.

Pel<inq October 20.--It is apparent here tonight that the imperial govern ment knew the result of the battle at Hankow between it's forces and the rebels more than 24 hours before 1t became public.

LET her go said Fire Chief
Sinclair at about 2:30 yesterday
afternoon and the boys who fight
the flames shortly had the new
Sieben chemical nozzle playing on
a fire in a shack which had been
placed in the center of Main street,
opposite Elks' hall. Within thirty
seconds the blaze, and it was a
good one at the start, was extin-
guished. The cartridge, which con-
tains the chemical compound, was
extracted and a new one fitted to
the nozzle in the alarmingly short
time of three seconds. 1t was a
splendid exhibition and worthy of
any fire department in the country.
"The new nozzle is a success" de-
clares the fire chief, also the board
of county commissioners, and sew

meeting of the board next Satur-
day.

his soul. 1t was an astounding
declaration, quite in the same key
with her manner of yesterday,
when she went into a police station
and informed the sergeant:
'Ive just shot and killed my
husband
She wants to be punished at
once, before the birth of her child
1t would have been easier to COM
nit suicide, she explained, but in
that case the husband she loved
would have fore-sworn his religion
for the woman who had supplant'
ed her. Rather than see that, she
killed him, and rather than add the
crime of suicide to murder, sht
chose to give herself up and le
