against coming back 10 Atlanta, scold

Montgomery
The father argued and remon-
strated with her and finally persuad
ed her that the strictness with which
she was treated by her mother al

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-Presi-
dent Wilson has welded the big
stick" on Miss Julia Lathrop, head
Of the children's bureau of the De-
partment Of Labor and four employ
ees of the Department of Commerce,
who are alleged to have been stump
ing Alabama in the interest of Repre-
sentative Richmond Pearson Hobson,
candidate for Senator.
All have been recalled from that
State as a result of protests made
by friends Of Representative Clayton,
recently appointed by Governor
O'Neal of Alabama to succeed the late
Senator Johnston.
1t is understood that the protests
charged that these Government en-
ployees had violated the executive
order against "pernicioUs political ac-
t!vity." If the charges are substan-
tiated they undoubtedly will be rep
rimanded by the President.

EXPRESS THEFT
ARREST DUE BY
NIGHTFALL
Detectives Work on Theory That
Guilty Man Will Squander
$4,000 Booty.

Detective Harry Scott, Atlanta
agent of the Pinkertons, said Mon
day that the hunt for the daring
robber who looted the Southern or the
Adams Express Company OF $72 900
in transit from New York 20 Savan-
nah and South Georgia banks had
narrowed down to two or three ex-
press employees, who were being kepe
under special surveillance. He an
ticipated an arrest during the day.
The centering Of suspicion on par
ticular employees has not caused the
detectives to relax their vigilance.
On the contrary, the closest sort of a
watch is being kept on every en-
ployee Of both companies who by the
most remote possibility might have
been connected with the bold theft.
The instant one of these men
energies into the white lights" and
begins spending money freely he Will
be arrested as the man who stole the
$4,000, according to Special Agen.
Weaver, Of the Southern Express,
who returned to Savannah Monday
from a trip to Florence.
I'VE expect to make an arrest anv
time now said Weaver. Every man
who could have possibly been con-
nected with the robbery is under sur
veillance. Every other man is clint
mated. 1t rests with two or three.
We are just waiting for him TO
show up, and then we will get him.
He can't hold out much longer. There
is either a woman back Of it or the
lure Of the white lights. 1t is always
that way. He will remain under cover
for a little while but he will soon
show his hand. 1t is human nature
for a man with that much money 10
put some Of 1t into circulation, par
ticularly with the kind of man who
would come by 1t in that way"
At every point along the line to-day
special agents. are either riding or
lounging around boarding houses and
little depot hotels where the messen-
gers hang out. Sleepy eyed agents ds
they come in from their runs are
taken to the office Of General Man
ager Hockaday and closely interro-
gated. The search has not relin-
quished one bit although the prlnci-
pal activity is at the New York end
Of the line.
The remote possibility, as the Off
cials term it, of any messenger having
secured the money, at first over
looked, is being thoroughly gone into.
Could anyone have duplicate seals 20
fasten the wire into the little lead pei
let's the combination to the safe made
into the express car a duplicate Of
the key kept by the agent at the des-
tination, and a duplicate of the key
that unlocks the second lid to the
trunk, this key being kept under the
first lid in a sealed envelope, the rob-
berry might have been made in tran
sit, The officials regard this as high
ly improbable, but they are investi-
eating such a possibility fully.

BANK MEET FOR
CITY DEPENDS
ON HOTELS
National Association Secretary Is
Here to See if Atlanta Can Fur
nish Adequate Quarters.

Fred E. Farnsworth, secretary of
the American Bankers Association
for the past six years, is in Atlanta
TO determine whether the city's hotels
can give adequate accommodations to
the National Bankers Convention in
the autumn of 1914.
There is no doubt that Atlanta can
do everything else handsomely in the
way of entertainment" says Mr..
Farnsworth. I'VE know all about
Southern hospitality and we know the
Atlanta bankers. But Atlanta is grow
ing so rapidly that its hotels are busy
all the while. The question is, can
all other business be turned away to
take care of the 5000 or more bank
ers?
Bankers Want the Best.
You know bankers want the best
of everything. They won't take rooms
without baths, and they positively
will not double uD.'"
Mr. Farnsworth Is Just from Wash
ington, where he has been working
hard to assist the bankers in getting
what they regard as vital amend
ments to the Owen-Glass currency
bill
II do not believe the Administra-
ton currency reform plan will pass
in its present FORM" he says. TT will
pass the House practically as it
stands but, in my belief, II will be
amended considerably in the Senate.
The temper of the Senate is shown
by the fact that while the bankers
were TO have had a six-hour hearing
before the committee they were kept
four and a half days by the eager
questioning of the committeeman,
hich covered not only the currency
bill but all manner Of subjects di-
rectly and indirectly connected with
finance.
Bill To Be Debated.
"The currency bill undoubtedly will
be the leading topic Of discussion at
The Boston convention which opens
october 6. The currency commission
Of the aSSOcia ton will make a report
end general debate will follow. South
elm members of this commission are
T~soph MCCOrd, of Atlanta, and Sol
WeNler, Of New Orleans.
The bankers objection to the plan
- outlined are fourfold: Govern
mental control. governmental issue of
ana disposition of the per cent
Government bonds"
Mir Earnsworth sees good times
ahead
Autumn has not developed the ex-
peCted strinEency of money" he SAYS.
THE crons are moving without undue
strain. and prospects are for healthy
conditions to follow. The South in
particular seems to be In good shape"
Dinner Is Planned.
J. K. Ottley, of the Fourth National
Bank; Haynes McFadden, secretary
of the Georgia Bankers Association,
and Fred Houser, secretary of the At
Ianta Convention Bureau, met Mr..
Farnsworth at the Terminal Station
Monday morning at 11:15 o'clock. Mr..
Farnsworth was taken to the Pied
mont Hotel. Monday night there will
be dinner in his honor at the Ansley
Hotel He remains until Tuesday aft
ernoon.
The convention bureau has secured
pledges of 1871 rooms which will be
set aside for the use OF the Bankers
Convention in the Atlanta hotels. 1t
is believed this pledge will be salts
factory.
81 think the association will take
kindly to the idea of coming to At
lanta, as it did in 1885," says Mr..
Farnsworth. THE only question is
one of accommodations"
