Receivers For
Yaryan Company
Action Taken By Judge
Speer At Macon

Macon, Ca, May 24-The re-
cent failure of the American Naval
Stores Company, has involved the
Yaryan Naval Stores Company, a
S., 100000 concern located at
Brunswick, Ca, and Gulfport,
Miss, and today on application of
Attorneys Isaac and Hayward, of
Macon, representing various credi-
tors Judge Emory Speer, in the
United States District Court for
the Southern district of Georgia,
appointed a coreceivership to take
charge of the affairs of the COM
panY.
The receivers;are:J Judge William
H. FELTON, of Macon; James s.
Bradley, president of the company,
and Homer L. Yaryan, vice presi-
dent of the company, both of
Brunswick.
The s American Naval Stores
Company is SAID to have owned the
Yarsan Company $25O.000 at the
time of it's failure and the inability
to collect this money has caused
the present financial embarrass-
ment.
The Yaryan Company is proba-
bly, the largest naval stores manu-
featuring plant in the world. The
output of the plant at Brunswick.
is 5000 gallons of turpentinc 300
barrels of rosin and 1000 gallons
of pine oil daily, while the Gulf
port plant turns out 1000 gallons
of turpentine, 100 barrels of rosiD
and 300 gallons Of pine oil daily.
The plants run night and day and
are never closed down, it being
stated that to close down for a
single day would cost $1,000 to
start.up again.
The plants at Brunswick and
Gulfport employ at least $500
workmen, 1900 of whom are kept
in the woods continually, supply
ing old stumps from which the
products of the company are manu-
featured. Seventy-five carloads of
stumps are consumed daily and the
annual pay roll of the company is
$4,000.
The equity proceeding was
brought for the purpose of con-
serving the assets of the company
and both the company and the
creditors consented to the receiver
ship, feeling that it would be i'm
possible to proceed without the
protection of a court of equity.
1t is said that the receivership
will have no disastrous effect on
Brunswick as it is merely a pro-
tective measure to keep the busl-
ness going.

ing Feat.

BALTIMORE. Dec 5. - Colonel
David Du Boise Gaillard, u. s. A..

Hospital today.
Colonel Gaillard had been a patient
at the hospital since August II last,
suffering from a growth in the head,
the result of seven years of arduous
labor in the tropical climate of the
canal zone.
He failed gradually, but steadily,
and for the last few months had been
in state of coma due to the pressure
of the cranial growth upon the brain
cells. The physicians decided some
time ago that an operation was use
less and might hasten his death.
He is survived by his widow and a
son, Lieutenant David p. Gaillard, U.
s. A. Both were at the bedside when
the end came.
born at Winnsboro, S. c., In 1852 He
was graduated from West Point Mill
tary Academy In 1884, and since that
time had won many honors in the
engineering service.
A bill was introduced in Congress
last month promoting him to the rank
of colonel in recognition of his dis
tinguished services which eliminated
in the great engineering feat in the
Culebra section of the Panama canal.
When Culebra Cut was flooded by the
blasting of Gamboa dixie on October
10 last Colonel Gaillard lay uncon-
scious in his bed at the hospital here.

FLAMES AT BIER
Or DEAD WOMAN
Lace Curtains, Blown by Wind,
Drift Over Lighted Candles
in Ogden ST. Home.

Lace curtains caught fire near the
coffin of Mrs. Harry Pullan in her
late home at 1863 Ogden street early
today. The blazing material drifted
across the coffin and, according to a
report by the firemen who were
called, scorched the hair Of the dead
woman.
The blaze was caused by gust OF
wind which swung the lace curtains
to where several lighted candles had
been placed near the coffin. The per-
sons in the house raised an alarm and
laborers who were at work on an ex-
cavation in Ogden street rushed into
the dwelling. The men quickly put
out the blaze. They were employed
on the night shift Of the crew that
is working on the Passaic Valley
trunk sewer, which is being con-
structed beneath the roadway.
Mrs. Pullan died yesterday in St
Michaeps hospital after long Ill
ness and the body was brought home
for the funeral.

TALK AGAIN PUTS
K|NK into DEBATE
ON CURRENCY BILL
Williams Tells Republicans
Senators Are Not SchOolbOys
to Be Told sit Here

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-Two hours
of talk in the Senate today again pre-
vented action on the Democratic reso-
luton to fix thirteen -hour-a-day ses-
sions on the currency bill.
Senator Bacon denied that there
was any purpose to restrict debate or
Exhaust the Senate" and Senator
Williams repeated that the object of
the program was to make the
"talkers talk early, talk late, and talk
continuously until the takers are
talked out"
I'VE will not prevent debate" he
shouted to the Republicans. You will
get your stomachs full of debate. But
you cannot make senators come here
and listen. You cannot treat senators
of the United States, free, white and
twenty like a lot of schoolboys
and say Buddy. here's your bench;
sit on it"
1T believe there is deliberate pur-
pose on the other side of the
chamber" said Senator James. ito
delay this bill. The business interests
of the country are held up while lot
of gentlemen on that side talk"
Senators Sutherland, Gallinger and
Smoot vigorously disclaimed any In
tention to delay.
Senator Weeks, Republican, dis
cussed the administration bill in a
long speech analyzing and generally
endorsing it. He had signed the anti
administration report.
''I can frankly and honestly say to
senators that. in my Judgment, there
is enough good in this legislation,
however much one may dissent from
some of it's provisions, to warrant its
being supported he said.
Senator Weeks declared that f1nan-
cial depression could not be charged
to delay in currency legislation.
I'VE have been putting into opera
tion a tariff law which, whatever
may be it's final effect is sure to be
disturbing to some degree" he said.
I'VE have an unusually complicated
and delicate foreign question In which
the country is vitality interested. We
have before us prospective corpora
tion legislation which must neces-
sarily be a disturbing feature in our
business affairs. Any of these would
be sufficient, operating singly, to af-
feet business: operating together they
have been enough to bring about a
marked diminution in the volume of
trade and it should not be charged
that only delay in passing this bill
has been the cause of it's falling off,
because there is little or no connec-
ton between the two"

Emmeline Pankhurst, the suffragette
leader Is said today to be in a state
of collapse. having started both a
hunger and thirst strike since her
arrest on board the Majestic yester-
day.
LONDON. Dec. 5-The threat of
the militant suffragettes to resort to
violent methods of revenge for the
arrest of their leader, Mrs. Emmeline
Pankhurst, was put into effect this
morning with the destruction of
mansion at Wemyss Bay, Scotland;
several attempts to destroy letters by
pouring acid into mail-boxes here,
and numerous isolated cases of win
dow smashing. Moreover, 1t was
stated the women had a plan to do
something sensational within the
next twenty-four hours, and the po-
lice everywhere kept a strict watch.
In the meantime Mrs. Pankhurst
remained in Exeter jail, the authori-
ties not having decided to remove her
to Holloway. She has already COM

Passengers on the Majestic, on
which Mrs. Pankhurst made the voy-
age across the Atlantic, told today of

rest of Mrs. Pankhurst. said thet
when the suffragist motorboat at
tempted to follow the police boat,
two battleships were drawn up in
front to defend the chief constable
and his officers from a handful of
militant suffragettes.
The English press also is inclined
to sneer at the elaborate police plans.
The Manchester Guardian remarks:
There was an absurd disproportion
between the actual danger of disorder
or rescue and the plans of the au-
thorities." The Westminster Gazette
says: ut Is absurd to describe the
arrest of Mrs. Pankhurst as a tri-
umph for the police"
