BURNS
To DEATH IN
|TSCRADLE
Mother With Difficulty Restrained
From Rushing Into Fiery
Structure After Child.

While the frantic shrieks of her
mother pierced the air, the 2-ysar-
old child of Mrs. Thomas c. Wilson,
No. 400 Grove street, burned to death
in a. fire which wrecked the home
early Thursday afternoon.
Mrs. Wilson had left the house but
a few minutes before to go to a near
by grocery store. The child was
asleep in it's cradle. When she re-
turned the one-story frame house
was mass of flames.
Crying out for aid, the terrified wo-
man rushed into the burning building,
but was repulsed by the flames. Pc
destriaps who rushed up were forced
to overpower her to prevent her from
imperiling her own life
A fire alarm brought the fire depart
ment. which quickly extinguished the
blaze, but not until the infant had been
burnt to a crisp. Its charred remains
were found beside the iron frame
work of the little cradle.
The fire is supposed to have orig
mated in the kitchen.
Wilson is employed at the Atlanta
Steel Company

MERCHAN rs
BEGIN WAR
on RATES
Victory for Rail Lines viii Near
Blow to Shoe Industry Here,
Declare Experts.

by retaining the s5-cent rate on
boots and shoes coming to Atlanta
from New York and Boston, which
was fixed two years ago by the Inter
state Commerce Commission, Atlanta
will become one OF the greatest shoe
markets in the world" said Harry 7.
Moore, traffic manager OF the Atlanta
Freight Bureau. Thursday.
I'VE are going to make desperate
fight to keep the commission from
permitting the railroads to increase
the rate"
Mr.. Moore Thursday took an ac-
tive part in the fight of the boot and
shoe merchants OF Atlanta against the
raising of rates on boots and shoes
by the railroads. The testimony of
the shoe merchants and of the rail =
road representatives was heard In the
chambers Of the Court of Appeals by
Special Examiner L. c. Mackley, of
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
Testimony Here Finished.
The testimony was finished Thurs
day afternoon and the commission
adjourned. Arguments will be heard
in Washington in so days.
The RAILROADS contend that boots
and shoes should be rated as first
class freight instead of commodity,
and want to advance the rate from 95
cents to sl.05.
The outcome Of the fight will de-
termine either a reduction or a raise
In the price Of shoes to the general
public.
In 1910, the Interstate Commerce
Commission ruled that railroads
should transport boots and shoes
from New York and Boston to At
lanta at a rate OF IS cents per 100
pounds. Since the expiration of this
ruling, some months ago, the rail-
roads have boosted the rate to S1.05.
viii Raise Price Of Shoes.
Atlanta shoe companies declare
that unless this rate Is reduced by a
resumption of the former ruling, the
price of shoes necessarily will be
raised to cover the additional rate
raise.
The arguments before Special Elk
aminer Mackley will attempt to show
the injustice OF the railroads' action
In boosting the old rate.
The concerns participating In the
fight are the Orr Shoe Company, rep
resented by J. X. Orr; Rice Hutchina
Atlanta Company, by E. @. Thomas
the Spalding Granting Company,
by T. A. Granting, and the M. c.
Kiser Company, by w. H. Kiser.
The legal end OF the shoemen' s
fight is being conducted by w. A.
Wimbish.
The railroads involved are the
Southern Railway represented by

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 6.-Angered by
the recent pressure from Washington
brought against him to compe. mis-
resignation, General Vlctoriane Huer-
Ia told his Cabinet to-day that he had
decided to remain in the National
Palace in spite of any threats or
threatening demonstrations by the
United States.
That the Mexican situation has
been further complicated by President
Wilson's demand for Huerta's resig-
nation and that plans for q peace

at least for a time, frustrated, is ap-
parent.
General Huerta has not yet for
mally rejected President Wilson's de-
nands nor had he communicated with
Nelson O'Shaughnessy. American

noon to-day. The possibility that the
United States will 40 further in its
naval demonstration in Mexican wa
tiers has been, to some extent,
strengthened by the developments of
the last 70 hours. A number of the
political enemies of Dictator Huerta
have pledged their support, saying
that Mexico expects to ss' Huerta

fuse to give way in the face of press
ure from Washington or any other
foreign menace.

Even some OF the most guarded OF

There was an unconf1rmed report
current here that Huerta, believing
that patriotism could best be served
by compliance with the wishes OF
President Wilson, wrote his resigna-
ton three days ago, but did not sign
it. Events which Immediately fol-
lowed angered him to such an extent
that he tore UP the resignation and
intimated to his advisers that, being
man trained in arms, he would
