fifty years old, was scored by the in
spector and Recorder Pickersgill for
her method OF doing business AT
the suggestion of the inspector, the
court asked to see her hands They

woman's store always appeared un-
sanitary He e~ndeavored to have
her prosecuted for refusing to allow
him to inspect it last October, but

favor of Judge J. +. G. Griggs. of

by he alleges United States Senator

MIN.
Martins statement is given to a
local newspaper in reply to a Wash
ingtOn dispatch published yesterday,
in which the Senator's side of the
controversy was plausibly explained.
He declares that after appointing him
Collector of Customs for the port Of
Jacksonville. Senator Fletcher forced
him to tender his resignation, by
threatening to either withdraw his
name from the Senate or have that
body refuse to confirm him.
Martin further declares that Sena-
tor Fletcher's attitude resulted from
the fact that the cnange in customs
collection districts, by which Jack
sonville became headquarters Of the
state, would automatically place him
tMartinJ in charge OF the State This
change of attitude by Senator FletCh-
CT toward him came. Martin declares
after Sam Fletcher. a Tampa lawyer
and a cousin Of Senator Fletcher had
requested that former Mavor w II.
Frecker, of Tampa, be made customs
collector. Frecker would appoint him

OF several thousand dollars yearly.
Frecker is a native OF Canada.
Martin. who is president of the
Jacksonville Salesmen's Association,
and his hundreds of friends here are
bitter over the treatment accorded
him, and it is expected that the sales
men will wIeak revenge upon Fletcn-
er by voting for John y. G. Stockton
to succeed him as United States Sen
ator in the coming senatorial pri-
mary.

Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.

Special Cable TO The Atlanta Georgian.
MEXICO CITY, Sept. 1.-THE sa-
lent features Of President Huertas
message to Congress this evening
created much discussion. In brief.
they were.
Mexico takes exception to the
presence Of United States warships in
the harbors of the Republic and will
probably inform the United States
next month that the Government can
not permit longer the presence Of
foreign men-of-war unless for special
purposes.
Mexico now has an army of 10O,-
900 men, bound to the Republic by
the ties OF warmest patriotism, and
all are ready on a moments notice to
rise in the defense Of the country.
The Government is on a firmer
financial foundation than It was a
year ago. in spite Of domestic dissen-
sion. The revenues are $1,000, 600
greater and the expenditures are no
greater than they were under the
rgime Of ex-President Madero
The Government will omit no eff
fort to obtain much desired peace and
guarantee fully at the next national
election free use Of the ballot"
The briefest mention is made to
the strained relations between Mexico
and tha United States. The exact
words used are:
Besides our fratricidal conflict.
which is about to terminate owing to
the efforts of the Federal army, the
tension OF our diplomatic relations
with the United States Government.
fortunately not with its people has
caused general alarm. has made us
suffer more than one undeserved re-
serve and delayed complete and final
pactifcatlon of the Mexican Repub-
lie"
Huerta praises his own administra-
ton, saying that 1t has been one Of
triumph and asks the members of
Congress to b. loyal to him and to
work for paCtification.
