polite to appoint an Ambassador to
Mexico until after the election in thai

The State Department does not

LOBBY CHARGE
President Tells Newspaper Cab
met" That Townsend's ACCusa-
ton Is Not Formal.

WASHINGTON. June 9.-The lobby
Investigation, according to President
Wilson. is clearing up a most dis
agreeable situation and will result in
the cleansing Of politics from an I'M
fortunate phase which has existed for
many years"
In his semi weekly conference with
the newspaper cabinet" to-day the
President showed he was most opti-
mistic concerning the outcome of the
inquiry.
The Chief Executive declined to
discuss the charge of Senator Town
send, of Michigan, that he has been
lobbying for the purpose of the I'm
derwood tariff bill, because, he said,
the Senator's charges have not vet
been formulated in a manner suffi-
cient to warrant an official denial,
either from the President as regards
the bill itself or from the White
House with respect to the use of the
big stick Of patronage"
When asked if he will testify be-
fore the lobby committee, either in his
official capacity or as a private Citi-
zen, the President side-stepped by
saying:
Il have not yet been invited and
therefore can not say what / will do"
Senator Sutherland. Republican, Of
Utah, testifying in the lobby quiz to-
day, confessed to owning 1000 shares
Of mining stock he valued at about
5 cents a share and 1850 shares of
stock in the Amalgamated Sugar
Company worth sic a share His in
terest in mines and sugar would in
no way influence his vote, he said.
Senator Reed of the investigating
committee, declared a lobby exists,
and in proof Of his assertion called
the attention Of the committee to the
number of legislative agents at the
Capitol when Congress reconvened.
The Senator said he talked with many
of these lobbyists. He said a mes
sage to him read as follows:
please vote against free sugar and
save the mule industry of ST. Louis
The Senator said he learned the
muleteers Of st. Louis sold their stock
TO the sugar planters and he inferred
! that the sugar men had threatened
the market.
Il think that class Of men should be
prohibited from lobbying in the Capt.
tol of the nation and in the Capitols
of various States" Reed said.

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.
LONDON, June 9.-The death Of
Miss Emily Wilding Dawson from
injuries received when she tried TO
break up the Derby last Wednesday
resulted to-day in the worst wave
of suffragette terrorism that Eng
land has yet experienced. Bands of
women here and elsewhere attacked
property with Amazon ferocity, do
ing damage by fire estimated at $780,
900 to $4,000.
The grandstand at Hurst Park
race course was consumed by fire.
The blaze had been set in the box
occupied by the royal family. Oil
and tar had been smeared over the
woodwork and the flames spread
quickly. BY the time the alarm was
given the stand was a mass of flames
Despite efforts of f1remen to extin-
guish the fire, II burned eight hours.
At tWhippscross and Wartham-
stow, club houses of boating organ
izations were set afre and scores Of
small craft destroyed. At Wartham-
stow the flames spread to the sur
rounding. forest and several villages
were threatened. Volunteer firemen
fought the blaze for hours before they
were able to subdue it.
Plan Great Funeral Cortege.
The headquarters of the Women's
Social and Political Union were draped
in black to-day in honor of Miss Da-
visions memory Plans were set afoot
to hold a public funeral for the dead
woman, and the cortege VIII be
marked by a mighty procession of
women through the streets OF London.
Leaders Of the union hope to have
100, 900 women In line.
Miss Dawson died Sunday after
noon in Epson Hospital. From the
time of her relapse Friday after
noon il was evident she could not re-
cover Christabel Pankhurst, the eX-
lied suffragette in Paris, sent the fol-
lowing tribute:
Miss Dawson died for women. She
died to call attention to their wrongs
and win them the vote. The govern
ments refusal to grant the vote drove
her to make protest. Argument has
not convinced Mr.. Asquith of the I'M
fairness Of his position, but perhaps
woman's death will.

Miss Davison's memory will live

Mrs. Despard, another militant,
said:
Miss Dawson was one OF those
who believed that blood must be the

"In truth the question is death fo-

Miss Christabel Pankhurst in an ar
