BIGGEST
BY IAN !
MILLIONS
November CIearings 100000
Over Same Month in 1912.
Week Shows Increase.

With the bank clearings for No
vember, 1913. exceeding by more than
seven million dollars the figures for
November year ago, indications
ere Saturday that the clearings for
the year will exceed by many mil
lions Of dollars any year in the his
tory Of the Atlanta Clearing House
Association.
UNLESS the elearings for Decem-
Der fall far short of what they have
ever been for that month" said j,
q. Lester, secretary of the Clearing
House Association, Saturday morn
Ing, this year is going 20 be the big
gestwe have ever had and the clear
lngs will compare very favora bly,
with any city in the United States
There are no figures available as
yet on the clearings for the year, bui
indications are they will exceed any
other year by many millions of dol
lars"
The clearings for the month of No
Nember, 1913 were $40, 70S, 92S.03, an
increase of $7,1S6.516.03 over Novem-
Der, 1912. This increase is consid
cred remarkable, as there is usually
falling off in bank cIearings to
ward the close Of the year.
An increase of the same generous
proportions is seen in the bank clear
ihss for the week that closed Satur-
DAY at noon, as compared with the
same week last year This week the
clearings We're $l5,S09, 9S194, while
last year for the corresponding week
the clearings We're only $1312S,44S.9S
a gain of more than two millions.
The ciearings for this week are sew
eral million dollars smaller than last
week, but this failing off is but the
natural decrease always apparent aft
er the 10Th of each month.

Former Guard Quit Job Because
1t Was "Like Sending Mems
Souls to He'll"

One of the most shocking of all
the tales of the cruelty at the Allan
Ia Federal Prison since Julian HaW
thorne and DIR. w J. Morton made
their sensational charges against
Warden William H Meyer, was told
to The Georgian Saturday morning
by ]. H. Archer, of Sumter, Ga, for
two years a guard at the institution,
who says he quit because ut was
like sending mems souls to hell"
Mr.. Archer's story Of the things he
saw and the things he did during his
two years service under Warden
Meyer is like page ripped from some
,s<ss-..sss==esses..-a sssasses 1t is picture
of tortures and punishments hardly
conceivable in this enlightened age
He barred the secrets of the hole" a
place of torture that he says changed
strong men into white faced maniacs;
he tells the details of how men were
chained and shackled to the walls
of a dungeon for days at time, with
a slice of bread and a glass of water
their only fare; of men who were
thrust into the blackness of the soil
tary' and came out insane with the
desire to kill; of the man who, his
mind wrecked by the terrible silence
of the hole" and the strain of his
punishment, tore a great hole in his
side with a rusty nail and ground
fine particles of glass into his own
flesh; of the consumptive who was
locked in his cell and kept there until
he died, and there is in his mind the
remembrance of the young prisoner
who lay for twenty days on the stone
floor of his cell without a morsel to
eat.

there were always half dozen poor
devils chained to the walls, their legs

against the solid brick-slowly going
insane in the inky blackness and the
terrible silence.
There is but one word to use IN
speaking of the hole out there at
the prison. That word is hell. II there
is hell on earth, it is the dungeons
where prisoners are thrown for the
slightest infraction of the prison
rules; where mems souls are shr1vel-

terrors of eternal damnation.
