noon at Broad Street Park defeated the
Bsnedictine College eleven In the first
game in which the Catholic institution

down. The winners were forced to use
their utmost efforts to cross their op-
ponents goal, but cieanly earned their
touchdown in the second period The
game was devoid Of sensational fea-
lures, but was fought hotly on both
sides.
The surprise Of the day was the
strong defense OF the Catholics. who
were expected to 80 down like cha0

CRITICS OF COURTS ARE
THE SINE AS BLEASE
Ex-Vice President Fairbanks Puts
Them in Same Category.

Chicago, Dec 9-Critics of the judi
ciary of the United States were placed
in the same category with Governor
Blease, of South Carolina, by Charles
w. Fairbanks former Vice-President,
who addressed meeting of the Ham
ilton Club here.
Il understand" said Mr.. Fairbanks,
that Governor Blease is reported to
have said, "To hell with the Constitu-
ton The persons who undermine the
faith of the people in the judiciary are
directly attacking the Constitution of
the United States and may spread the
same distrust implied in the reported
remarks of Governor Blease If | re-
member correctly, South Carolina on
two previous occasions uttered a senti-
ment of that kind On the last occa-
sion it took four years of bloody war
and the lives of many thousands be-
fore that political heresy was stamped
out, as hopeod forever.
IF there is one thing which we can
do better than another it is to incul-
cate in the minds of the people of the
United States higher respect and ad-
miration for the Constitution, which
foreign nations, more and ymore, are
embodying in their fundamental laws.

Washington. D. c., Dec. 9-Chair-
man McCombs of the democratic ma
tional committee, put in busy day in
Washington comforting with Chas. ID.
Hilles, secretary to the president,
Speaker Clark, Democratic Leader
Underwood, other democratic leaders
in the house, and with several demo-
cratic senators.
Chairman McCombs had a private
luncheon with Mr.. Hilles. They dis
cussed several questions, particularly
the organization of the White House
offices. Mr.. Hilles has been Mr.
Taft's secretary about two years, and
is fully familiar with many questions
among them those of precedent,
which will face President-elect Will
son when he enters the White House
The conference was the basis for
report that Mr. McCombs would
come to Washington with the new
president in an official position.
Some of Mr.. McCombs friends said,
however, that while he had been Of
fered a place In the new administra-
ton, he had not decided whether he
dwould accept 1t.

A double wedding at the residence

known and much esteemed here, where
they have long resided. The grooms

Washington, D. c., Dec. 9.-Pres;-
dent Tafts plans for trip to Panama
today advanced to a point where De-
ceber 10 was tentatively selected as
the date of starting. 1t was under
stood here today that Mr.. Taft's in
tention to visit the isthmus before
he goes out of office was influenced
partly, at least, by President-elect
Wilson's decision not to do so.
Under the new Panama canal law
the president is charged with the re-
sponsibility Of putting into effect the
new government for the canal zone 1t
is understood that Mr.. Taft would
have been, glad if Mr.. Wilson had de-
termined to make trip to the canal
and perfect the new government after
he came into office, with a personal
inspection of conditions there to as
sist him. 1t is now possible that Pres
ident Taft before he goes out of Of
fee, will do it himself.

Americus from Chicago where, as state

lines the Plans

Washington, d. c., Dec. 9.--Demo-
cratic members of the house ways
and means committee had their first
general conference today to discuss
plans for the tariff work to precede
the extra session next spring.
Chairman Underwood outlined his
own views as to what should be done
between now and March 4 and sub
mitted plans for hearings and for
preliminary work on the proposed
tariff revision bills
Hearings probably will be started
early in January If the suggestions
of a majority of the democrats on
the committee are followed.
While interests affected by tariff
changes will be given the opportu-
nifty to appear, the hearings will not
only be extended SO as to interfere
with early preparations of tariff bills
The tariffff bills, after they have
been discussed in the democratic eau

FOR

SIGNATURE
HIS LETTER BROUGHT $4,000
Georgia SignGr'S Letter Most
Valuable on Record

Philadelphia, Pa, Dec. 9.-Collectors
and speculative buyers who attended
the sale Of the autograph letters col
lected by Elliott Danforth, late treas
urer of the state of New York, in the
auction rooms of Samuel T. Freeman
& Company, played costly joke upon
themselves by refusing the bulk offer
of autographs of the fifty-six signers
of the declaration of independence for
$4,000 and then paying $15,100 for the
lot in separate bidding
The single autograph OF Button
Gwinnett, one of the "signers" from
Georgia, who was later killed in a
duel by General Lachlan Mcintosh,
brought the top notch of $4,000, while
that OF John Penn, of Philadelphia,
appended to war letter" to Robert
Morris, brought $40. The sum of
$b60 was paid Tor an autograph letteF
of George Wythe, of Virginia, the
letter being addressed to Governor
Page and containing a criticism of the
continental officers responsible for the
retreat from New York and mentioning
the consoling fact that the troops
are not dispirited and are now adyan-
tageously posted on the heights of
Haerlem." Gwinnett's signature was
as witness to the will of Joseph
Stanley and Penn's was on a letter
written to Samuel Johnson, in refer
ence to the maneuvering of French
and Spanish ships, and the presence
in the continental army of Officers not
fit to act as common soldiers and pos
scssing not one spark of honor"

PRETTY ATLANTA GIRL RESCUED IN
MACON BY POLICE DEPARTMENT

Macon, Ga, Dec 9.-After being en-
ticed from Atlanta by a woman nam
ed Hughes, on the promise of bet
ter position, Miss Elizabeth Wilson. a
pretty 17-year-old girl, was found by
the police Saturday night at the
home of Lizzie Carmichael on Bay

When the police entered the house,
after being called in by the Carmi-
chael woman, the young Atlanta girl,
who says that she formerly worked
for S. H. Kress & Co, in Atlanta, was
sitting in a chair with her head on
table, and almost PROSTATE from
the effects of the surroundings to
which she had been enticed.
At the police station she hysterical-
ly told the story of her experience,
saying that she had been told by the
Hughes woman, who is said to have
been a former friend of the Atlanta
girl, that there was a good position
in Macon for her.

tors and builders by Chief w. P. Nc
Arthur, of the local fire department,
who is, under the provisions of the
new building ordinance, also city
building inspector, that the new ordi-
nance will be rigidly enforced.
This matter came up for consider
able discussion at last nights session
of city council, and Chief Macarthur
was instructed TO enforce the ordi-
nance. Certain provisions of the or
dinance were cited by Chief Macarthur,
who inquired if it were the purpose
of the board of aldermen that the or
dinance be rigidly enforced. Instruc-
tions were given to Chief Macarthur
that the ordinance is to be enforced
henceforward
While the matter was up for re-
newed discussion, the building ordi-
nance itself having been passed at the
last meeting OF council, the provisions
of the ordinance in some particulars
were referred to by some MEM
Ders of the board Of aldermen as
exceedingly rigid, while other alder
men called the ordinance the best that
the city had ever passed.
Under the provisions of the new or
dinance, which will be thoroughly en-
forced henceforward, every builder or

pairing and building under the super
vision of the building inspector Due

every violation of the ordinance will
be prosecuted, according to the an
nouncement of Chief Macarthur

ton at the office of the building in

NEARLY TWELVE
MILLION BALES
GINNED ALREADY
REPORT ISSUED ON MONDAY,
Of Cotton That is iiRned to.
December Isl.

Americas cotton men were interested
in the government bureau report, is.
sued yesterday and which gave official
ly the number of bales of the current
cotton crop ginned to December 1st.
The bureau report yesterday showed
11,S44.432 bales ginned already. which
was about the estimate previously
made by the cotton trade in guessing
at the figures.
This is pretty close to the twelve
million bale mark. which by the way.
has been passed already, as the bu-
reau report was made up to December
1st-ten days agone.
In the Americus market spot cotton
values were not materially affected by
the report. The market declined about
Is points after the publication of tha
figures, but rallied soon thereafter.
Spot values were unchanged and all
offerings of good cotton were freely
taken.
Interest is now centered upon ths
governments crop estimate, which will
be issued Thursday afternoon next, at
] o'clock. Naturally, the estimate will
be of more Importance than the GIN
ming figures and the trading of the en-
tire week will revolve around 1t.
AS opinion stood at the end OF last
week, the census report will be bear
ish. The trade expects something
smaller than the amount turned out
the corresponding time last year, it iz
looked on as large, considering other
comparisons
Bulls gloss this over by stating thak
this is the fastest picked crop ever
known, a claim that they have been
putting forward for three years now.
Bears contend that it points to
larger total crop than the world has
been figuring ON.
Up to recently the bulls were con-
vinced that the governments estimatss
of the crop would be below 14,O0O,-
600 bales, but private estimates this
last week have shaken that belief. At
the same time 1t is generally ackn0w-
lodged that the tendency Of the gov
ernment to underestimate the crop
should be considered and that figures
much over 100000 would be sur
prising
AS sentiment now stands, an estf-
mate commencing with thirteen would
cause an advance, while fourteen mil
ions bales, or over, would favor the
bears, since the estimate will not In
clude linters, and the short side is
bound to allow for the habit Of under
estimating no matter what claims are
advanced by the bulls.
