Unable 10 Give Names.

The Boston financier, under cross
examination by members Of the COM
mittee, was unable, however, TO give
the sources of his information. He said
he knew II in general way" and OBJ
tanned II by such methods that he could
not attribute II to any specific source.
Mr. Lawson not only failed to men
ton any Of his informants when their
names were demanded but flashed his
resentment in no uncertain manner
when Senator Pomerene tntimated that
he might be unaware that the commit
tee had power to probe more deeply
into his charges than he was disposed
to go.
Mr.. Lawson said he expended SloO-
900 in the hope Of confounding the
system" by bringing about the nomina-
ton and election of Colonel Roosevelt.
None Of this money was given 10 any
political committee, but II was devoted
to an advertising and circularizing
campaign In the State OF Massachu-
setts. He said fund Of S1,oOO,OOO had
been subscribed in Wall Street in sup
port OF the plan TO nominate dark
horse at the Democratic convention,
but he was vague as TO the sources OF
this information.
With the $61S,OO0 previously account
ed for by testimony before the COM
nittee. the cost Of the Progressive
campaign to date totals SS36,OOo, and
before the close of the week 1t Is ex-
pected that the fund will have reached
the million dollar mark.
MIR. Munsey, who preceded Mr.. Law
son on the witness stand, assumed
somewhat apologetic air in explaining
that he had contributed only SllSOOo
TO the Roosevelt pre-convention cam
paign. OF this amount S6T l67 was for
the national pre-convention campaign.
He contributed $4,000 to the New
York campaign; $1,000 to the Massa-
chusetts campaign, in addition to pay
ing advertising bills amounting to SlO,-
900. and S5,237 to the Maryland cam
palgn, also paying Sl0G32 in that state
for printing and the distribution OF
pamphlets.
Munsey Calls Himself a "Piker.'
by comparison with the contribu-
tions Of Dan Hanna" Mr.. Munsey
added, and the sums / am supposed
70 have expended according to the
charges that have been made, my ac-
tual contributions make me look like
q piker."
Mr.. Munscy testified that he had
heard that Alexander Cochran. of New
York, had given $25OOO TO the Roose-
welt campaign, and ne assumed that
George w. Perkins had given approx
n,atelv the same amount as himself.
II was his attempt to explain the ne
cessity for large contributions In sup
port Of the Roosevelt movement which
led the New York publisher into diffi-
cuIties. He insisted that allowance
should be made for the fact that 1t was
necessary to build up an organization
IN further Colonel Rooseve.t's candi-
dacy.
In reply Senator oliver pointed out
that the Roosevelt supporters had ap-
propriated the regular Republican or
ganization TO their own uses in Kan
sas, In California and other states.
"In fact" said Senator oliver, you
had the machinery in about as many

Mother Burns Before
Eyes Of Children

Mrs. Mary Ethridge was burned
to death yesterday at her home
near the city. She with her three
small children were alone on the
premises when her clothing caught
fire from trash pile, and before
assistance could be summoned she
had burned to death. The terrified
little children told two men, pass
ing that way, of the awful tragedy
and they Immediately summoned
Mr.. Ethridge who was working on
Sidney Clare's place. The charred
body was brought to the city this
morning for the coroner's inquest.
Mrs. Ethridge was thirty five
years of age and was the daughter
of William Dunbar. The broken
hearted husband and little children
have the sympathy of the entire
community.

Have A Real Garden

Almost every farm has some
sort of a garden, but the great ma
jority have been regarded in care
less way and given but little atten-
ton and as a consequence have
never yielded anything to compare
with a well-made garden. The
trucking and market garden indus
try, while it has been great thing
in some sections, is as yet poorly
developed in most of tho South: al
though the demand for first-class
vegetables is almost everywhere
unsatisfled.
With the proper understanding of
the possibilities of home gardening
in adding to the pleasures of farm
life, and the profits to be made
from market gardening, the South
will no doubt become noted as a
land of gardens. The time has come
for the real garden to set aside the
old makeshift garden, which was in
summer a little patch of beans and
roasting-ears, and in the fall af-
forded a few collards and turnips.
The real garden will be a we'll
cared-for plat of land where can
be, and where will be grown a va
riety of vegetables through a
long season. M. Latham, in
The Progressive Farmer.

Mrs. Arthur MObleY
Dies Suddenly

Mrs. Arthur Mobley died very
suddenly about five O'Clock this
morning at her apartments in the
BULGE Building. Death is sup
posed to have followed an attack
of heart failure or was the result
of a severe fright received by the
young mother when her infant
child fell from the bed to the floor.
Mr.. Mobley states that his wife
awoke and found the little one on
the floor, and called to him, then
as she raised herself to reach for
it she fell back upon the pillow I'm
conscious and expired in FIVE MIN
utes.
She had been in a very nervous
state of mind for several weeks,
and it is thought that when the
child fell from the bed the fear
that it might be seri 'uslY hurt was
too great a shock for her. The
babe, however, didn't receive a
scratch.
Mr.. Mobley has the sympathy
of all.

FARMERS UNION
IS NOT SUPPORTING
ANY CANDIDATE
EFFORT TO FOOL THE FARMERS
WILL NOT AMOUNT TO ANY.
THINGS, SAYS HUTcHENs.

An effort Is being made to align
the farmers of Georgia against Oscar
w. Underwood, on the ground that
he betrayed the farmers of Geor-
gia by allowing Mr.. Lamb of Virginia
to be appointed Chairman of the Ag-
rtcultural Committee of Congress. AS
a matter of fact, every well informed
man knows that Mr.. Underwood and
Mr.. Lamb got their appointments
from the same source and that Mr..
Underwood did not appoint Mr.. Lamb.
Besides, how many ever heard of the
incident before? How many have
heard of Oscar Underwood as the
true and tried friend of the former
and the one man in the United States
who drafted the FARMERS FREE
BILL AND PUT IT THROUGH CON-
GRESS. The sorriest part of it is
that this effort to align the farmers
of Georgia against their best friend is
not being made by the Republicans,
but by people who call themselves
Observation-Disclosures Wilson's Geor-
gia managers.
Il see by the papers that Prof. Will
sons managers claim that the Farm
ers' Union is supporting Prof. Will
son." said Manager. Hutchens of the
Underwood campaign. II do not be-
Heve it. Upon what authority can
they say SO? The Farmers Union Is
not supporting anyone for the Presi-
dency. It's not a political organization,
nor can any man deliver its members
or it's support to any candidate. This
Is an insult to the farmers Of the
state, just as it Is an insult to their
intelligence to tell them that Oscar
Underwood is not their friend"
Every farmer knows that Under
wood was the author Of the farmers
free list bill, and succeeded in having
it put through the house, though Taft
vetoed it. Under the terms of this
act there were placed on the free list
all agricultural implements, including
plows, tooth and disk harrows, head
ers, harvesters, reapers, agricultural
drills and planters, mowers, horses
rakes, cultivators, threshing ma
chimes and cotton gins, farm wagons
and carts, and all other agricultural
implements of all kinds and descrip-
tons, as we'll as bagging for cotton,
burlaps and bags or sacks for sacking
agricultural implements, harness and
saddles, barbed fence wire, wire
strands and wire staples, as well as
also boots and shoes, sewing ma
chimes, house material, foodstuffs and
other articles.
This bill would have removed any
possible discrimination against our
farmers in the prices of these neces-
sary articles, and would have placed
them on an equal footing with the
rest of the world Our domestic man
ufacturers of agricultural tools, imple-
ments, vehicles and machinery are
largely organized into great trusts
and combinations, which are selling
these articles cheaper abroad than at
home. which caused agricultural as
sociations in all parts of the country
to protest by public resolutions.
Taft vetoed this measure, which
was drafted by Mr.. Underwood and
over which he labored zealously for
months. But when we put Mr.. I'm
derwood in the white house, the far
mer. in common with the rest of us,
will come into his own.

His Story Will be Heard Within
Next Few Days
LAY MURDER THREATS TO ROSE
Witnesses Say He Voiced Determination
to B'll osenthal-Schepps Story Re-
futeSby Two Witnesses-Rosenthal
Raid Not "Frame-Up."

New York, Oct. 2l.-Police Lieut..
Becker will testify in his own defense
in his trial on the charge OF instigGting
the murder of gambler Rosenthal, ae-
cording to Attorney Mcintyre, who said
he had yielded to his clients desire in
the matter, and that Becker's story
would be heard within the next two or
three days.
Attorney Mcintyre added that he was
"hopeful of an acquittal.
District Attorney Whitman last night
was confident OF conviction.
Witnesses in the trial of Police Lieut..
Becker testified Saturday to two points
which the defence considered vital to its
case. These were;
First-That the raid on Herman Ros-
enthal's gambling house on April II was
made after evidence against it had been
obtained by the police. The state charg-
es that the raid was a fake"
Second-That "Bald Jack" Rose and
"Bridgey" Weber, two of the self-con-
fessed accomplices to RosenthaPs muir
der, who have turned states evidence,
threatened to kill Rosenthal weeks be-
fore he was murdered.
Another witness, Louis Pitt, brother
OF Becker's so-called press agent, swore
that Jack Rose had gone down on his
knees in the Tombs and said: ''On the
grave and ON the memory of my dead
mother, | say that Becker had nothing
to do with this affair"
A fourth witness declared that Web
Der, Rose, Schepps and WALTON were
placed in adjoining cells in the West
Fifty-third street prison, but was not
allowed to say whether they were thus
afforded opportunity to hatch the plot,
which the defence claims they framed
to shoulder the crime on Becker.
Other witnesses, police lieutenant
and his wife, testified they had visited |
Becssr at his home on the night of July |
II, AZ hours after Rosenthal was shot, |
and that Becker was there from l0:45
until they left at Has. Jack Rose has |
testified he was with Becker elsewhere |
during those hours.
Joseph B. Sheppard, time member |
of Becker's ''strong arm squad testi- |
flied he had obtained the evidence upon |
which Rosenthal's place was raided. He |
was taken to the establishment two |
days before the raid, he said. by a |
"steerer" who met him and two other
policemen at the Hotel Cadillac. The I
policemen wore citizens clothes, and the
"steerer" did not know their identity.

SAND AND GRAVEL s21 100000.
Extensive Industry Reported on by U. S.
Geological Survey.

One of the important industries in the
United States of which comparatively
little is written is the production of sand
and gravel. In 1911, according to re-
port by +. F. Burchard. just issued by
the United States geological survey, the
production of sand and gravel amounted
to 66S46a59 short tons, valued at S2l.-
l5s.5S3. The production of sand of all
kinds was 40253,977 tons. valued at
sl4 ,43s, 500. and that of gravel was 49,
500 .9S2 tons, valued at S6,720,0S3. The
production of glass sand was valued at
81 ,547,73 an increase over the figures
for 1910; the sand used for building in
1911 was valued at S7,7l92s6. slight
decrease as compared with 1910. This
was accounted for by less activity i'm
1911 in the building trade, including
that of concrete construction. The pro-
iuetion of molding sand in 1911 was val
ned at -, 1872. 460. marked decrease as
with 1910. The production of
al other sands in 1911, such as sand for
grinding and polishing fire sand. engine
and, and filtration sand. was valued at
b .043.0l2. an increase of over a million
dollars in value as compared with 1910.
