STINKS WITH FRAUD

ROME. GA. July G.-"By your own
admission, this affair fairly stinks with
fraud declared Judge Maddox from
the bench today, addressing Attorney
Dean, representing the defendants in
a receivership suit pending against the
Rome Insurance Company. You claim
your company is solvent" continued
Judge Maddox, but only 20 per cent Of
your capital stock has been paid in
and no effort has been made to collect
the rest. | can not do anything else
but appoint a receiver.
Attorney Dean demanded a hearing,
so he could make a showing before a
jury.
You can go on with the case. but
you will have to do a lot to convince
me-" said the judge.
The taking of testimony began this
afternoon. John NJ. Miles, Of Baxter,
Ga, brought the receivership action
to recover $4,000, which he claims to
have paid for stock in the company.

Plus, in Tenth Year,
0utliveS the Prophecy
That He'd Die in Nine
Pontiff Breaks the Sequence of
Nine Year Periods Into Which
Life Has Been Divided.

LONDON. Aug, Pope Plus has
entered his tenth year as pontiff, and
the prophecy that he would sit in the
chair of st. Peter only nine years from
the date of his accession, August 4
1903, is proved without foundation.
Last year, when seriously ill, he said:
1T is no use, 7 want to die now. My
nine years are up"
Before he left Venice to take part in
the conclave from which he came forth
pope, he said to his friends:
ut is curious what influence the
number nine has on my life Nine
years a school boy at Riese; nine years
a student at Padua; nine years curare
at Tomolo; nine years a priest at Sal
Sano; nine years a canon; nine years a
bishop; nine years a cardinal and pa
triarch of Venice"
But the charlatans who foretold only
nine years as pope are unabashed. They
say that as he has risen to the highest
position IN the church it Is only right
he should rule longer, and therefore lie
will now rule a number of years; a
multiple of nine.

GAMBLER
CALLS MEMBERS OF
COUNCIL "SHIRKERS"

Alderman John s. Gambler declared
on the floor Of council yesterday that
the trouble with Atlanta's city govern
ment was that councilmen shirked their
duties, intrustirg them to boards and
commissions.

repartee between Alderman Gambler
and Alderman f. ]. Spratling Alder
man Spratling, who is chairman Of the
council committee on hospitals wanted
to take $4,000 and begin the construc-
ton Of a $4,000 nurses dormitory for
the city tuberculosis sanitarium. When

found that the $4,000 item in the budget
could not be spent until February, 1913,
when the entire amount would be pro-
vided. AS Alderman Gambler is chair
man Of the finance committee. Alder
man Spratling wanted to know from
him why such strings were tied to the
apportionment."
The whole matter was referred to the
finance committee.

TECHNICAL FLAW IN
INDICTMENT IGNORED
BY COURT OF APPEALS

The state court of appeals in decid-
ing the case of William HarreI, con-
victed in Berrien county Of assault with
intent to murder, gave notice today
that the courts of Georgia would not
be influenced by mere technicalities.
Harrelrs attorneys had filed a plea
of abatement during his trial on the
grounds that the indictment had been
signed Improperly. The evidence
showed that he foreman's signature on
the true bill appeared as "A. w. Pat
ter" whereas the foreman's name was
A. w. Patterson. However, the trial
court denied the plea and the case went
up on exception to this jurgment.
The court Of appeals said that the
plea was trivial and immaterial and
should not affect the case.

Judge Gober S
Friends Indignant.

The statement published this morn
ing and credited to Chief Lanford of
the detective department, that two jew
eled earrings from the loot taken from
the thieves had been presented to Judge
Gobers daughter is absolutely untrue.
Friends of Judge Gober cite his long
record on the bench and at the bar in
Georgia and attach little Importance to
the charges made against him. They
are extremely bitter against the At
Ianta detectives and the Pinkerton men
who have brought the charges against
his law partner and incidentally
against him.
George F. Gober had for many years
bean solicitor general and then supe-
rior court judge of the Blue Ridge cir
cult \ few months ago he opened a
law office in Atlanta. and was asso-
ciated with Robert r. Jackson, a former

and McAIister cashed a run. Elberfeld
started to steal second, but Becker saw
him going down. Agler, however, was
