DYING MAN CAN 7.
GIVE CLEW To KIN

With death nearing, an aged man
lay today in Grady hospital, vainly en-
deavoring to pronounce the names and
addresses of his relatives.
That he has relatives he wants in
formed of his condition is apparent to
his questioners
He gave his name as ]. R. Sugars
when he entered the hospital Tuesday
afternoon, suffering from pains which
attacked him at the Terminal station
He had in his possession a ticket read
ing from Shawmut, Ala. to Rockmart,
Ga, but inquiries by the Terminal peo-
Pile have failed to obtained any infor-
nation at either of these points.
Waiting passengers called the atten-
ton of Matron Payne to the suffering
man. She located a doctor in the
throng, who advised quick removal to
a hospital. At the time the man said
he had suffered from such attacks for
years and would soon recover. He
agreed to spend the night at the hos
pital and neither the Terminal nor
hospital authorities thought to ask
then, the names of his relatives.
When it became apparent Wednes-
day morning that his condition was
much worse, Matron Payne was mott
fled, but by the time she reached his
bedside he was unable to speak. He
has been sinking gradually since then
and no hope is held for his recovery
Doctors say it may be possible that he
will recover the use of his voice before
the end comes.
Sugars is about so years old and
has gray eyes and snow white hair and
beard.

Gambler Spokesman.

The chances for "A compromise dld
nor look promising. Council had steam
rolled the Humphrey resolution and re-
fused to recognize Mayor Woodward's
citizens committee of ten. Mayor
Woodward had retaliated by vetoing
councils charter revision committee of
ten councimen and ten citizens. The
only compromise he suggested was for
council to pass the Humphrey resolu-
ton and he then would approve sep
arate council charter revision commit
tee. thus making two charters to be
submitted to the people,
Alderman Gambler stated the object
of the visit of the committee to Mayor
Woodward Mayor Woodward replied
that he was ready to do anything to-
ward real charter reforms. He said
that he was satisfied that an over
wheming majority Of the people Of At
lanta demanded a complete revision of
the charter, and that he was convinced
some OF the members of council had
been trying to block the movement on
account of political animosity to him.
He urged that it was time for all
political facuonalism to be put aside.
Councilman Smith asked Mayor
Woodward if he would appoint a char
Ter revision committee of councilmen
and citizens and submit it to council
Mayor Woodward said he would not.
They asked him e he would consent.
then. to a committee of one council
man from each ward and one citizen
from each ward, to be appointed by the
mayor after councils authorization.
Mayor Woodward answered that if
council would allow him to add five
citizens from the city at large, he
would consent
Alderman Gambler said he would
agree II the mayor would consent not
to appoint more than one citizen from
the city at large from any one ward
Mayor Woodward agreed to this.
They decided that the committee of
twenty five should select its own chair
man. When Councilman Smith sug-
gested that no public utility officials or
representatives should be on the COM
mittee, Mayor Woodward declared he
not only agreed, but that he wanted a
new charter that would better regulate
public utility corporations.
To Name Chairman.
Alderman Gambler told the council. in
making the committees report of the
conference. that he thought all had act
ed for the best interests Of the city.
and he urged his fellow members to
support the compromise report There
was not a nay vote.
Alderman James r, Nutting then Of
fered a resolution prohibiting any
stakeholder, officer or attorney of any
public utility corporation from serving
on the committee. He was told Of
Mayor Woodward's statement and he
withdrew his resolution.

appointments on the committee to

MACON STRIKERS
ASK ARBITRATION
StrikebreakerS Reported En-
Route From Philadelphia
to Take Places.

MACON. GA. Jan. 24.-Efforts to eff
feet a reconciliation between the mem
Der Of the Electricians union and the
Central Georgia Power Company are
being made a a conference which is
being held this afternoon between a
committee from the striking electri-
clans and the officials Of the power
company
y committee from the electricians,
who struck two weeks ago for an in
crease in wages of from SO to $3.50 a
day, called on W. H. FELTON,, president
of the Central Georgia Power Company,
today and asked that the differences
of the strikers and the company be sub
mitted to an arbitration board. Their
request was at first refused fatty, but
later and before the conference was
completed, Judge FELTON, consented to
meet the committee again this after
noon to further consider settlement.
In view of the fact that the reports
safe that a dozen union electrical
workers are on their way here from
Philadelphia to take the place of the
strikers, it is not thought that the of
ficials of the power company will con-
sent to arbitration
Strike breakers Expected.
The officials refuse to admit or deny
that strike breakers are en- route to
Macon, but the fact that General Man
ager Wickham has gone to Philadel-
phia has caused the laboring people
here to believe that strike breakers are
coming.
1t was reliably reported in labor cir
cles here today that the strike breakers
will arrive tomorrow or Monday.
The sympathy of the laboring people
is with the strikers, and the fact that
the Central Labor union is taking an
active part in the efforts to have the
wages of the electricians raised makes
it practically certain that any effort on
the part of the power company to i'm
port electrical workers will be resisted
by the laboring people
A subscription is being raised for the
benefit of the striking electricians. The
men are doing their own cooking in
their hall on Broadway. A statement
was issued from their headquarters to-
day to the effect that they will not re-
| turn to work unless their demands are
recognized

HILO. Hawaii, April 19.-Commenc-

tend over a period of five months, the
Hawaii probe commission convened in
the first session held in Hilo, in the

interest shown by the local public in
the beginning of the investigation,
there being no one present other than
the members and assistants OF the
commission, newspapermen and few
of the employees of the county offices.
The first step of the investigators
was the securing of number of books
and other records from the county
treasurer's office, which are being
marked and entered as exhibits.
Special Prosecutor Breckons ex-
planned to the commissioners that there
were certain books which it was nee
essary to use in the county offices
from day to day in the transaction OF
the county business, which he recon-
mended that the officers be allowed to
use when not required by the inyesti-
gators. BY doing this it would save

ENCOURAGING

Applications for lots in the Uluniu
tract, Prince Kalanianaole's home
stead at Waikiki, were opened at the
office of the Kapianali Estate. Ltd,
today. having. been advertised for one
month in the Star Bulletin.
There are twenty four applications,
covering thirty-nine lots out of eighty
two," said Manager John F. Colburn
this afternoon IF the bids had not
oyerlapped on the same lots in some
cases, the number of lots applied for
would have been sixty-three This, I
consider very encouraging, especially
as bids have been received for lots
in every block-the back as well as
the front ones
1T will be two or three days yet
before it can be decided whether to
make sales nthe applications. This
is a matter for the directors to con-
slider. Probably some of the appli-
cants that have been forestalled by
others in bidding for their choice will
be willing to take other lots equally
we'll located or nearly so.
The aggregate of the prices for
the thirty-nine lots covered by first
applications is $4,000"
