 nio Dominguez and Manuel Pablo, tn- two Indian boys arrested the first of the week charged with robbing a mail- box on the Mcdowell road, were re- leased yesterday by Judg. JohnStOne and the case dismissed for lack of evi- dence. The facts that the letter said tO have been taken by the boys had been placed in the box two days pre- vious tO their arrest: that they hal found the mailboX on the ground, and that they fingered around for an hour O, so at the place writing ther names on the box etc, did not seem in ac- c0rdance with the probable actions of d wiIlful wrongdoer. As no direct ev- idence was produced against the boys the case was dismissed.

GEORGIA is NOW AFTER
ATLANTIC COAST line
Railway Commission Seeking
Information

Atlanta, Ga, Oct 9.-An order has
been issued by the state railroad
commission, directing the Atlantic
Coast Line to furnish the commission
with a list of any and all stocks or
bonds that have been issued by that
railroad since August 27, 1907. 1t
has come to the ears of the commits
sion unofficiaIly that within the re-
cent past the railroad has issued
several million dollars worth OF mort
gage bonds, and as the law REQUIRES
that this must not be done without
the sanction of the railroad commits
sion, something may be expected to
drop. 1t will probably be the claim of
the railroad that it is subject to the
rulings o f the interstate commerce
commission alone, being an interstate
carrier. This was the defense made
in similar case by the Southern Bell
Telephone and Telegraph company.

A LULL In HOSTILITIES
over In The ORIENT
Powers Now Discussing the
Situation

Berlin, Oct. 9.-A circular note
from the Turkish government asking
the powers whether they consider that
the time has arrived to seek a basis
fo~ negotiations looking to peace be-
tween Turkey and Italy, and what
conditions, was presented to the Ger
man foreign Office today. The note
contemplates the cession of Tripoli to
Italy under certain conditions.
1t is probable the communication
from Constantinople will be discussed
by other powers before the Italian
government is approached. 1t is
though at the foreign Office that Italy
may not be ready to negotiate.
The decision to eXpel Italians from
Turkey against which representations
from the German ambassador at Con-
stantinople, have not been effective
yet, was designed chiefly, it is thought
here, for effect upon the coming ne
gotiations, Turkey hoping that the
threat might induce the Italians to
make moderate terms.

JUDGE FELTON, TO PRESIDE
OVER MEETING OF JUDGES
Has Served Longer Than AnySuperiOr
Court Judge in Georgia.

Atlanta, Ga, Oct 9.-Defects, omis-
sions and fmperfections in the criminal
laws of Georgia will be discussed by
the judges of the superior courts of
the state, and such recommendations
made to the Legislature as to the modi-
tication and improvement of the crimi-
nal code will be made as the judges
shall agree upon at the time.
The movement out of which has
grown the convention Of the superior
court judges had its inception in the
general assembly itself and the Joint
resolution bearing thereon was signed
by Gov. Hoke Smith August 19. 1911.
This joint resolution calls upon the
judges of each superior court in Geor-
gia to submit in writing not later than
January 1st, 1912 such defects, omis,
sions and imperfections in the penal
laws Of the state as his experience
may suggest. 1t is also directed that
each judge make such recommenda-
tions as he may deem fit for the i'm
provement of imperfect laws, and that
the Governor lay these recommends
tions, or synopsis of them before the
next session Of the Legislature.
While the resolution calls upon the
Judges Is, submit their reports and rec
it is the opinion OF
many that better results would obtain
should the judges meet in convention
and discuss with each other the mer-
its of such changes as each may advo-
cate. 1t is believed that this course
would undoubtedly bring before the
general assembly many imperfections
in the penal code that would otherwise
be entirely overlooked
z Judge w. H. FELTON,, of the Macon
circuit, dean of the superior court
Judges of Georgia, will issue the call
for the convention, and will probably
preside over it's deliberations, He is
the oldest superior court judge in the
state in point of service, and one Of
the best.

COOLER WEATHER CAME
BUT VERY LITTLE rain
Indications Are Still Very
Good For Rains

For the first time yesterday in many
days the maximum temperature for
the day fell below the ninety mark,
which is very encouraging for the long
suffering population of Americus, who
have been wishing for such a drop
in temperature.
The light showers of Sunday night
and last night also added to the in
creasing store of coolness that seems
to be gradually taking the place of the
excessive heat that has held high revel
here for many days. The mere cloud
mess which accompanied the show
ers helped wonderfully in the way OF
lessening the heat and making it feel
in reality like October.
