COMING HERE TO INTEREST ALL
PROPERTY OWNERS IN CLEAN
ING THEIR PREMISES.
FIFTY OR SIXTY IN PARTY
Delegation to Be Divided and One or
More Inspectors Will Visit Each
District in the City May Mean
Much to the City.

Cities all over the country are wax
ing up to the necessity Of inaugural
ing some plan by which cellars and
back premises shall be cleared OF
trash and empty boxes, to the end OF
rendering them less liable to conf1a-
grations, such as are occurring with
far too much frequency for the sat
isfaction of the general public. The
more prominent cities are vieing with
each other in the crusade for better
housekeeping in the various mercan-
tile and manufacturing establishments
in their midst. Dirty alleys and base
ments have proven prolific confiagra-
tlon breeders, and up-to-d munich
palities will no longer tolerate them.
In an interview with J. S. Wright
yesterday it was learned that on July
25 members of the Georgia Fire Pre-
Vention Society will visit Brunswick
for the purpose of interesting rrop-
erty owners in cleaning up their
premises, thereby removing the most
fruitful source Of fires. 1t is expect
ed that fifty Or sixty visitors will
be present.
Mr.. Wright states that the city will
be divided into sections, and one or
more inspectors is to be assigned to
each section. Wherever an accumu-
lation of trash or any inflammable
material is found, the attention of
the occupant of the premises will be
called to it and an effort made to
improve existing conditions.
The inspection of this city is in
line with the general plan on the part
of this society to endeavor to reduce
the fire loss all over the country, it
being recognized that most hres are
easily preventable. The movement is
largely in the interest of the general
public, as only a portion of property
is ever insured and in every fire of
any magnitude property owners lose
a considerable amount over and
above their insurance.
In other cities where the fire pre-
Vention society has made inspections
their work has met with great enthu-
siasm on the part of the citizens. AS
a matter of civic pride, it is hoped
that the merchants and other prop
erty owners of Brunswick will take
prompt steps to put their premises
in good order so that the inspectors
will find the least possible ground for
criticism.
After all inspections have been
made the citizens of the town will be
invited to an open discussion of the
great subject of fire prevention, and
it is hoped that the meeting will be
largely attended in order that our
good citizens may get the benefit of
the society's knowledge and expert
ence in fire prevention work.
Brunswick is to be congI atulated
on being selected as one of the points
to be visited by members of this So
ciety, and it's citizens will undoubt
edly rise to the occasion and give
these gentlemen all the cooperation in
their power. AS one of South Geor
gia's leading cities, we do not want
to be behind in this movement, which
has aroused such widespread interest
throughout the entire country.

SIX Men in Custody.

Six men are now in custody in the
as material witness, and five others
charged with being implicated in the
crime. Commissioner Dough erty. how
ever, says that not one of the men
who killed the gambler is under ar
rest.
District Attorney Whitman return
- here today to take up with the
"a tnd jury an investigation of the
Rosenthal case. Lieutenant Becker
will be permitted to testify, provided
he agrees to waive all immunity. The
public prosecutor makes no effort to
hide his belief that the shadow of
Becker rests uron the Rosenthal case,
and in consequence will not sub
poena him. Whitman takes the po-
sition that if Becker is as innocent
as he says he is, he will seek to ap-
pear before the grand jury, waving
The grand jury also will take up
the charges that the police profited
from gambling houses by permitting
them to run without molestation.

BY THIRD DEGREE, STATEMENT
is sWEATED FROM NEWsaoY
THAT GAMBLERS LAID PLOT.
kAS PLANNED ON EXCURSION
Becker Not to Be Suopoenaed, as Dis
trict Attorney Believes His Shadow
on case-~Must Testify Without Inn
munity.

New York, July 22.-The Rosenthal
conspiracy mystery nears its solu-
tion. This is the belief of Deputy
Police Commissioner Dougherty, who
expects today to arrest two or three
gunmen and gangsters who were
hired to kill Herman Rosenthal be-
fore the gambler could disclose more
secrets of the relations between the
gamblers and the police.
Sweated and grilled by a fierce third
degree, Jack Sullivan, former news
boy, held as a material witness, and
Sam Paul, the East Side gang leader,
sullenly made statements today from
which the police commissioner pieces
together the important and hereto
fore missing evidence. These two
men, Sullivan and Paul, were taken
into custody last night, along with
"Bridgie" Webber, the gambler.
Detectives have learned enough of
the case to admit that the gunner
were gathered together on Monday
night and taken to Weber's poker
rooms, where the final arrangements
for the killing of Rosenthal were per-
fected. Webber denies all knowledge
OF the shooting.
g. Planned an Excursion.
Plans to kill Rosenthal were laid
on he excursion trip of the Sam Paul
Association. Rosenthal had been
talking too much. Some well known
gunner and blackiackers were along
on that excursion trip, and the detec-
tives now know that Bald jack Rose
and "Bridgie' Weber were also on
board the steamer
1t was the day that Ro9enthal had
threatened to tell more about how the
police grated on gambling house
that word was passed around that
Rosenthal must be made away with.
Deputy Police Commissioner
Dougherty has found out that Rose
was a very busy man that day, and
that Jack Sullivan the go-between for
Rose and Police Lieutenant Becker,
also was actively engaged the night
Rosenthal was shot Sullivan, after
a grilling early today, told Commits
s.oner Dougherty that when he left
eutenant Becker at Broadway and
'orty second street at 1.30 a. m, or
26 minutes before Rosenthal was
shot, he went to "Bridgie" Webbers
place to find Sam Paul. He could not
locate him, but did find there several
gunner.

EX-SULTAN STILL SPENDING MONEY Buys Dog and Two Cats to Entertain His
 Harem

Paris, September 14.-(special.)- Mulai Hafid. the ex-Sultan of Morocco is still spending money lavishly at yichy, but his tips are not so large as they were, and he is beginning to req lize that he cannot buy everything that Is offered to him.
 But the first thing he did yesterday morning was to buy Saint Bernard dog and two handsome Angora cats. He had ordered the dog because he had heard of the wonderful Alpine exploits of it's race The cats are for one of his wives who had recently suffered the loss of a tabby which she loved dearly. When the Sultan's harem had been moved from Rabat to Tangier, Sene- gaiian, who apparently held nothing sacred had killed and eaten the animal.
 The news of Mulai Hafid's purchase soon attracted an enormous crowd out side the gates of the Villa Majestic. Dealers in cattle, horses, dogs, and various other animals hastened to the spot confident of striking bargain with the amlable Sultan

Unfortunately for the great stock mar ket interests centered here, majority or the so called leaders of large affairs have been more or less mixed up in fiotations and promotions which have cost the pub lie immense aggregate sums. The pubic has been cultivating a long memory and las learned that the only sure way to pro- tect itself from being burned is to keep away from the fire. It is not of record that the multi millionaires who profited by such promotions have been growing any poorer or that they are losing either flesh or sleep. The fact is that they are not getting any fresh blood and that is about as far as their punishment goes that, and a little undesirable notoriety. Personally most of these rich and sue cessful men are agreeable and honest in their relations with the people they come in contact with. The defect is that they look upon the public as great impersonal proposition, as something they can prey upon without violation of any of the rules Of honor or business integrlty-that the public is merely a great reservoir Of money upon which anybody has the righ. to draw who has the gift of making en- tree. In this impersonal sense 1t is as moral to take money from the public as to dip water from the ocean. The pub. lic however. is beginning to take differ ent view of the case and that is one of the real causes of present market dstruss md Gullness.

By w. G. NICHOLAS

New York, September 14.-(Special) The stock market Is going through mild case of ousecleaning" The banks have been calling loans and rid ding themselves of considerable volume of undesirable collateral, of the class disrespectfully described as "cats and dogs" Masses of this kind of stuff have been accommodating in Wall street for a year or more. until the burden became too great for safety. Banking houses and brokerage firms got behind underwriting and promotion syndicatas which have been engaged in the organi- zation of numberless over-capitalized enterprises of one sort and another un- til the situation became vertically rot ten"
 Times were so dull that the financiers and brokers of Wall street were willing to go into almost anything to make money. The result has been that pro- motions of doubtful character have come into being with the indorsement of reputable concerns in good stand- ing and the certificates have found their way in increasing volume into the envelopes filed with banks and trust companies as collateral on the daily routine loans. The certificates thus be- come familiar in banking circles, and although they may have little or no value the fact that they are mixed with stocks and bonds of merit give them unconsciously a certain standing which they do not deserve. It takes something of a shock to open the eyes of the banking community to the dan ger of trifing with that kind of truck. Latterly, in making preparations for an unusual demand for money during the next few months, banks have found themselves embarrassed by the accumu- lation of doubtful collateral and they have been calling upon their customers to weed out the envelopes"
