resentative Sisson of Mississippi

the outset that he did not intend

Sisson's address was confined
principally to the government s
treaty making power. He assert.
ed that the government had ex.

be negotiated publicly, saying in
part:
1T is not a declaration of wal
for America to decline to override
the rights of a sovereign State at
the dictation of a foreign Power
Ii the American government, with
its Army and Navy and brute
force which is superior to any OF
the States, should take away from
any State the right to control

Negro Taken After Fight
With Police on Roof.

Call Policemen Watson and o. r.
Jones were treated to a Wild motor
cycle dash and then to a grapple in
midair with determined robber, who
having fed to the roof of the Bur-
CESS Meat Market, fought furfously
to throw the officers to the ground,
but finally was captured and Monday
faced trial in Recorders Court.
The robber. a negro who gave his
name as Paul Johnson, did not sue
coed in his design. principally because
there were two officers.
So the policemen were able to re-
count their adventure at the police
station Monday morning, and even to
laugh about it.
Retreats to Roof.
A negro living next door to the
Burgess market, at No. 231 Auburn
avenue, was awakened by sounds as
of burglars in the store. He called
the police. They arrived so prompt
ly that the thief was cornered before
he realized it.
Escape blocked at both entrances
to the building, the robber scrambled
up a stairway, and with Jones in close
purusit gained the roof He retreated
to the farther edge of the adjoining
roof
There he halted between the dark
and empty void on one side and the
approaching officer on the other.
Watson to Rescue.
Rather than risk a jump, Johnson
tented a surrender, then closed with
the officer and with a spasm of eff
fort strove to whirl him over the edge
of the roof.
Jones is something of a wrestler,
but he had his work cut out for him
to foil the negro. Then Watson came
up and tugged the struggling pair to
a safe distance from the roofs edge,
where the two overpowered the rob-
Der.
Johnson. having been properly
downed and "cuffed," was quiet
enough after that.

A pistol duel between a burglar and

Piedmont avenue and Juniper street
Monday The burglar was discovered
in the two-story servants house at
the rear of the home of DIR. L. M.

a maid.
The burglar also was seen at work
by Lee Knox, the negro chauffeur for
John M. Mccullough, the rear of
whose residence at No. lat Juniper
street. abuts the servants house, and
Knox shouted to him.
From the second story window of
the house the burglar, negro, began
shooting at Knox, who returned the
fire. Two bullets penetrated the chauf-
feur's clothing and a third caused a
slight flesh wound. Knox fled and the
burglar escaped, using strips of sheets
to descend to the ground.
A lively chase followed in which
Policemen West, McWilliams, Tribble
and CAN'T participated, but the man
escaped.

morning brought out one of the larg-
est throngs which ever witnessed such
an event in Atlanta. 1t numbered

Dense Crowd at Five Points.
The crowd was greatest at Marietta
