.DNEsDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER IS, 1911
met FOR The FIRST
time In THREE MONTHS
Cabinet Discusses Tdft'S Com
ing Message

Washington, Nov 14-President
Taft met his cabinet to-day for the
first time in three months. Secretary
Stimson was the only member alb
sent. The head of the war depart
ment is in Kansas City Mo, where
to-day he made an address on the Pa
mama canal.
The reassembling of the presidents
official family gave recurrence to the
rumors that Secretary Wilson is soon
to resign.
This generally believed to be true,
and in official circles it is stated
the secretary of agriculture is only
delaying the announcement of his
resignation until President Taft de-
cides upon another man for this po-
sition. 1t is said the port folio has
been offered to at least two men
prominent in scientific agricultural
work, who declined it. To-day's
meeting was largely devoted to a CON
sideratiOn of the presidents message
to congress and official reports Of the
cabinet officers.
The presidents recommendations
to congress for supplementary anti
trust legislation probably along the
lines of a federal Incorporation act
will be formed after thorough con-
ferences with Attorney General
WickC sham.
1t is understood that the pr-s.-
dents advisers to-day pointed cat
that the work of the coming II
gress would center upon two mdll
issues-the tariff ant ,he trusts.

RUN harvester TRUST
FROM The STATE
Missouri Supreme Court Also
Assessed Heavy Fine

jefferson City, Mo-, Nov. 14.-The
supreme court of the state of Missouri
to-lay issued a writ of custer against
the International Harvester compa-
ny an assessed a fine of $4,000 for
violation of the antitrust law.
The International Harvester COM
pany, in September, 1910, was con-
victed of violating the Missouri anti
trust laws.
The case was submitted to the su
preme court for affirmation Vast
April. The effect of the decision IS
to prevent all the companies which
make up the International Harvester
company conducting further business
in the state.
One of the witnesses in the Missou
ri suit was George W. Perkins of J.
P Morgan & Co.
Perkins was the guiding spirit in
the organization of the international
Harvester company. The custer suit
against the company was brought un-
der the common law and the Missouri
antitrust law, which are broader
than the Sherman antitrust law.

RESIDENTS Of
COUNTY LIKE
The LIBRARY
AVAIL THEMSELVES OF Use
Membership Rapidly OutgrOW-
ing Supply Of Books

Continuous growth is shown in the
| interest being manifested in the work
of the library by the members of that
organization residing in the country
near Americus.
1t was realized when the privileges
Of the library were first thrown open
to the residents of the county that
there would be a wide interest mani
Tested in the library by these resi-
dents who had formerly been denied
its advantages. The number of new
members enrolled within short
time after the privileges were extend
ed was most encouraging in this par
ticular.
But even more remarkable has beer
the manner in which the number of
library members from the country
section has continued to enlarge and
expand. There has been no failing
in the interest shown by these resi-
dents, who have grown so vigorously
in number and in their devotion to
the library that they constitute a very
important factor in the support OF
the institution.
From the statistics made available
by Miss Virinia Gum, the librarian,
it is seen that the bulk of new mem
bers being enrolled now come from
the country districts. Since June
when the library was opened to these
members, there have been 22O names
enrolled from among country resi-
dents, while the average number of
new names being added monthly to
the list from among these residents
is approximately forty When the
fact that the total membership of the
library is only 1,484, is considered It
may readily be seen how rapid has
been the growth in membership
among the country patrons, while the
proportion of members allotted to the
county as opposed to the city, is seen
to be very representative one. The
average number of new members ad-
ded monthly, including both country
and city members, is approximately
sixty
With this rapidly increasing mem
bership, it may readily be seen that
the capacity of the library is being
pretty we'll tested to supply sufficient
books to all the members who wish
them. 1t is apparent already that the
larger demand for books is making it
imperative that the number of books
belonging to the library collection ne
increased as rapidly as possible. This
is a matter that deserves the most
careful attention of the board of di-
rectors, who have been so faithful and
diligent in the past in providing for
the needs of the library and who will
doubtless, increase the supply of
books at tthe library as rapidly as
possible.

LADIES Will
CONDUCT CAFE
FOR HOSPITAL
DURING THANKSGIVING Week
And in Connection With Cook
ing School Next Week

AT yesterdays meeting of the
members of the Hospital Association
held at the residence of Mrs. c. C.
Hawkins, it was decided by the mem
bers in attendance that the regular
Iannual bazaar held by the organiza-
ton should be conducted this year
as usual during Thanksgiving week
1t will be seen from this that the
week for the holding of the bazaar
will come just after the close of the
week that will be devoted to the man
agement of the cooking school and
cafe, which are being arranged for
the coming week. 1t was decided
yesterday that in connection with the
cooking school, which will be con-
Quoted next week at the Armory Hall
the ladies' will serve hot lunches
from 12 to / o'clock, so that this
feature will characterize both the
coming week and that which is to
follow.
The members of the association
have been fortunate in securing the
Armory Hall in which to conduct the
cooking school and the bazaar that is
to follow This affords a convenient
place, which is easily and quickly ac-
cessible for business men during the
lunch hour, and the ladies of the as
sociation are fortunate in having Sc
cured it for the two weeks during
which they will conduct these fea-
lures in behalf of the hospital.
A special rate of $3.50 for the entire
series of the lessons in scientific
cooking, which will be given twice
day, has been made for those who
wish to attend the cooking school
next week. A large number of ladies
have already enrolled their names,
while many others will do so in time
to take advantage of this excellent
opportunity to get such timely and
expert instruction in modern cooking
For those who wish to take only a
few of the lessons to be given, price
Of 25 cents per lesson will be made.

SESSION OF THE COURT
Will Be LENGTHY one
Several Murder Gases Await
ing Trial Here

Judge z. A. Littlejohn will preside
at the November session of Sumter
court convening 27th, one
week from next Monday, and the fall
term gives promise of being little
more lengthy than recent ones in
view of the amount of criminal bust
ness already docketed and cases yet
to be developed.
The civil docket is no longer than
usual, and but a few days will be
required in disposing of the suits
entered upon it.
Sumter's jail is comfortably filled
with blackbirds of varied intensity OF
color, and in this fragrant" human
bouquet are a half dozen murderers,
Besides the man killers, there are
numerous blind tigers, gamblers
house burners, pistol luggers and 9th
er dark hued malfactors.
If the second trial of the Childers
case is held here, as has been reques-
ted under change of venue, the ses-
sion wills be still further further
drawn out.

Dublic using this division Of the sys-
tenn
II is understood that on Sunday,
November 26, the sleeping car ser-
vice from Montgomery to Savannah,
and vice versa, will be inaugurated.,
As the report goes, the freight cars
that are now attached to the highs
train from Montgomery to Cordele
will be dropped from the passenger
train and will be taken care of in

made to the east and west bound
freight service over the entire divis-
ion.
The train now leaving Savannah

savannah at p. M, carrying a
through sleeper to Montgomery. This
train will reach Americus at 2 a. m,
and Montgomery at 6:30 a. m, giving
fine schedule from Savannah to
Montgomery, the run from Americus

lessened from the present operating
time

better transportation facilities with
Savannah than it has ever had be-
fore, travellers leaving here at a not
unreasonable hour, enjoying a 5ood
nights rest and reaching Savannah
sufficiently early iu the morning not
to break in on the day there. The
service this way, too, is one that
will be greatly appreciated by the
residents in this part of the state.
A slight change is also made in
the schedule of the "Shoo Fly train,
it is reported, which will wait at
Helena fifteen minutes later in the
morning, in order to make connec-
tions with the Southern train, but
the arrival time at Americus will re-
main the same.

WOULD PAY FAMILIES
FOR PRISONERS LABOR
Such Is Federal Warden'S Suggestion
in His Annual Report.

Atlanta, Ga, Nov. 14.-ln the an
nuaI report of William H. Meyer, war
den of the U. S. penitentiary in this
city, which has just been made to the
attorney general, the recommendation
is made that dependents" of prison
ers be paid by the government for the
labor done in the penitentiary. In
this way many wives, mothers and
children would be saved from the ut
ter poverty in which many of them
exist while the husbands and fathers
are serving time. 1t costs about 81
cents day to maintain the prison
ers. Their labor is worth approxi-
mately S1.5O a day. Why should not
the helpless families, asks the war
den, receive a part of this surplus
money in the prisoners labor?

LABOR TROUBLE ON CENTRAL
HAS BEEN SETTLED
No Strike of Employees at Shops viii
Result.

The impending labor trouble on the
Central of Georgia railway, growing
out of the strike now in progress on
the Illinois Central, has been amica-
bly, adjusted, according to officials of
the Central. There is now no indica-
ton of a strike or walk-out among
the employees of the Central. Some
friction was coused, it is stated, by
the arrival of a number of locomotives
bearing the name of the Illinois Cen
tral on them. 1t was believed that
they had been sent to Georgia for
repair because of the strike on that
system. 1t has been shown, however,
to the satisfaction of the employees
that these engines were purchased
outright by the Central for use ex-
clusively on this system.
