ELECTRICAL RENAISSANCE
BEGINS IN GEORGIA

Atlanta, July 16.-Georgia this sum-
mer is in the midst of a sort of cleo
trical renaissance which is being fe..
hot only by industries and individuals.
but by municipalities and whole sec-
lions. The tabled electrical age"
which was to follow the "stone age
and the 'iron age" and the "age Of
steam,' has already come so far as
this part of the South is concerned.
Hundreds of thousands of units of
force have been converted from water
power to electrical power, and tower
lines springing up in all sections Of
the state are carrying the mysterious
fluid into rural districts which have
never before had electricity available
The latest monster pump installed
here by the city, with a capacity CT
ten million gallons of water an hour
will be operated by electricity furnish
ed by the Georgia Railway and Power
Company. Word comes that the city
council of Rome, Ga, has just decid-
ed to use the same power for it's big
new pump. They were actuated not
only by the efficiency, but by the com
petitive cheapness of this kind of
power.
The town of Gainesville is making
arrangements to use electricity for al
it's heat and light A new set of trans
formers is being arranged and con-
nected at Gainesville to receive the
current from the Tallulah Falls power
dam, for use there and in contiguous
territory.
New industries are beginning to
spring UP and old ones are increasing
their capacities, since electric power
has become available in immense
quantities, and the eyes of the whole
nation are turned to this section to
watch the progress of the development
A great Northern newspaper in
recent leading editorial, said: "No
portion of our country is making
swifter strides in developing power
from rivers and Transforming it into
electricity than some of the Southern
states, notably Georgia. The abund-
ant waters emerging from unfailing
springs of mountains and foothills are
being harnessed while yet swift i'll
their dashing brightness, to furnish !
horsepower by the millions"

AUGUSTA COTTON BUYER
ENDS LIFE With BULLET
Settegast is Found
head BY Servants

Augusta, Ga, July 16-Joseph Set =
CAST, a cotton buyer of Augusta aud
Montezuma, committed suicide by
shooting himself through the head at
the home of DR.. Victor D. Barbo',
Wrightsboro road, this morning about
10 o'clock.
Temporary insanity over imaginary
business troubles is said to have been
the cause of the act.
Mr. Settegast's body was found by
servants about a half hour after the
shooting. He was practically unclotl-
ed, and the body was resting on the
bed with the feet on the floor. He had
taken bath just before he ended his
life and had returned to his room pre-
paratory to dressing for breakfast.
Surprised that he did not descend
promptly servants went to his room
to summon him. They received no re-
Spouse to their call and entered the
room where they found the body. A
pistol bullet had crushed through the
right temple.
The servants remember having heard
a shot, but did not attribute it TO
harm which Mr.. Settegast might dc
himself. Temporary arrangement If
his mind is the only cause that can be
attributed for the shooting. Certain
changes which worried him, but wouli
have caused no second thought for the
ordinary business man, are known -
have existed

Juror CAUSED BY
INSURANCE LODGES
Bring Suit to EnIoIn New State Law
From Going Into Effect
In Nebraska.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
LINCOLN. Neb.. July PA Juror
was created in official circles here to-
day by the action of three Nebraska
fraternal insurance companies who
brought suit to enjoin the new code
insurance law from going into effect
as ordered July IT,, because they be-
lieve the measure too strict. The
law. considered the most important
legislation passed by the last legis-
lature, was intended as statue which
would favor Nebraska insurance cor
porations in preference to foreign
organizations. The petition was filed
by the Royal Highlanders, the Wood
men Of the World and the Woodman
Circle, but 1t is certain that other in
surance interests are preparing to par
ticipate as intervenors. The plaintiffs
claim that the new code law was
Illegally passed by the house of rep
resentatives, not being read in full
before the vote was taken and that
the title Of the law is broader than
the bill itself, therefore rendering the
measure unconstitutional. It is ex-
pected that hearing upon the petit
ton will be set for the early part OF
next week.

MEXICAN SITUATION
is AGAIN ACUTE
Bitter Feeling Against Americans Be-
cause Huerta Regime is Not
Recognized.

limited Press Leased Wire Service.1
WASHINGTON, July 12.--The Next
can situation is approaching a crisis
in the opinion Of state and war depart
ment officials tonight. For months it
has been considered only question of
time until affairs in The southern re-
public would again reach an acute
stage For this reason President Will
son has withheld recognition of the
Huerta regime and has kept Ambas-
sador Henry Lane Wilson at his post
feeling that officials intimate with
Mexico must be needed sooner or later.
Up to tonight the war department
had received no word as to the recep-
tion accorded the messenger of Col.
Edwin P. Brewer by rebels when that
army officer made formal demand IN
the name of the United States for the
release of five Americans held at Hidel-
go. This is the latest definite issue
between the Uni ed States and Mexico
but the consul reports smouldering rep
resentment throughout the republic.
The Huerta government is angered
that recognition is withheld by the
United States after it has been granted
by several other nations. While not
yet having lodged any specific or for
NAL charges the federal authorities are
also known to be privately charging
that American consular and diplomatic
are aiding the rebels.
That $50 Americans are marooned
and starving at Torreon was reported
to the state department tonight. AM
bassador Wilson has sent them relief
funds from Mexico City. Juarez citi-
zens are prepared to defend the city
from rebels who have advanced in that
direction. Revolutionists along the
American border are reported.
