.soor and legislative recommendations
for the house. Untermyer has drawn
,,r = written statement of his views on

ton
Members of the committee declared
that it was foregone conclusion that
their findings would be less radical than
those of Untermyer The committee. it
was declared, was almost unanimously
enDosed to recommending direct Fed

FIGHTS RETURN
HERE FOR TRIAL
A. D. Walk Fears Changing
Sentence if Convicted of
Forgeries in Atlanta.

If the governor of Michigan decides that
\. u. Walk, recently arrested in Detroit
for alleged Atlanta forgeries. must stand
trial in this city, Walk will come here
alone to face the music
He is now under bond, pending the de-
cision of the governor, and informed De-
tective John Black, who has just returned
from Detroit that he would not put the
prosecution to the extra expense OF send
ing an officer back to Detroit IN the event
the decision is adverse to him.
I'm come straight to Atlanta and take
nay medicine said the accused man.
Detective Black remained in Detroit
more than a week, expecting to bring
Walk back, but, owing to the long delay,
came home without him.
Walk, who now holds a responsible in
surance position and who only recently
was welded to a popular Detroit girl, Is
fighting the effort to bring him to At
lanta, through the fear of one thtng-ths
chaingang Detective Black said Walk
was perfectly willing to return If given
the assurance that he would be permitted
to settle the alleged forgeries and escape
with u fine.
Because Of his business and social po-
sition, he has a horror of having to dor
stripes said the detective.
No assurance that he would be savec
from the changing was given him.

CrapShooters, Jailed for
Gaming, Roll En-
In Corridor Of Prison
Ten to Receive Double Dose
When Arraigned Before
Recorder Broyles.

Ten negroes this afternoon Will re-
ceive double doses when arraigned be-
fore Recorder Broyles, for the reason
that they persisted in finishing in the
police station a crap game that was in
terrupted by the police in a Dark
town house.
The ten gamesters, ~hovering around
prison blanket in a police station cor
lidor, were found by the turnkey roll
ing the bones" with as great enthu
Siasm as they did few hours before
in a dimly lighted room and on a
blanket covered table. The turnkey,
sUmmoning two call officers from the
station sergeant's office Immediately
raided the game selling the dice and
locking the gamblers in separate cells.
Additional cases of gaming were
docketed against each of the negroes.
We jest wanted ter finish dat game,

W. E. Foster, AL Peters street, sat
up in his bed at o'clock this morn
ing. and solilOquized profanely regard
ing the person who was having a merry
time with his front door bell. Half
asleep he .shivered his way out into the
hall and opened the door.
A fearful unkempt individual stood on
the porch. The stranger sobbed out a
tale Of highwaymen and of a fierce
battle. The knights of the road, he
gave testimony, had held him up and
had taken all his money except 81.
He pulled handful of crumpled bills
and small change from his pocket.
. Keep it for me-" he said, thrusting
it into the hands of the sleepy Mr.. Fos-
ter.
Then he sat down on the steps and
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-02-24

went to sleep.
Foster punched him into sensibil-
ity, and said, in effect, that he was no
national bank. But the stranger waved
him away.
They are waiting for me around the
corner. Keep it for me, or they'll get
it," he said tragicaily, and stumbled
away to his impending doom.
Foster went back to bed. Late this
morning the stranger had not returned.
and the custodian of the 81 told the
police that he had it. The police told
him to keep it until the stranger re-
turns. But bets are on at police head
quarters that the victim of the bold,
bad highwaymen has forgotten all
about his adventure in the cold, gray
dawn.

Prof Worthngton believes the Marian canals
exactly meet the conditions that would be required
to be met under the physical conditions of Mars, if
race of supremely intelligent. beings were fighting
to maintain life. Nothing less than such an intelli-
gence could account for them.
If Mars is inhabited and is making such struggle
for existence it is simply in advanced stage of the
experience this old world of ours must have some
millions hundreds of millions of years hence Just
think of what conservation issue Clifford Pinchot
and the rest of them will have, say forty million
years hence when gold will be dross, the currency
will be scientific, men will breathe condensed air
out of tanks borne on their shoulders, consumption
will be forgotten, there will be no tariff issue, and
the big daily problem will be to get square drink
of plain water for the price of days work!

up those wicked corporations for contributions to the

MEXICO NEAR PARALYSIS.

Conditions in Mexico grow worse day by day.
This is said with reference the prospects for
the Huerta government or any other regime sustain
ing itself, but with consideration for the people as
whole. The Huerta government is marked for de-
struction. Whether Huerta will leave the country
with as much treasure as he can scrape together
likely depends on his success in negotiating loan.
Prospects in that direction not fattering. 1t
is we-nigh universal belief in Mexico that Huerta
would leave the country if he could get his hands on
q comfortable swag and could make safe exit.
1t is very plain that Huerta has no real and little
even of nominal authority outside the federal district
which includes the City of Mexico. AS predicted
from the beginning he and Felix Diaz, his partner
in the original plot of treason and assassination have
now broken and Diaz is viewing with alarm efforts
of Huerta to sustain himself by force.
Congress passed an act for Presidential elec-
ton in July This was disapproved and another has
been passed. for an election whenever the country
shall have been pacifed" 1t never will be, under
Huerta If it should be he wouldn't concede the fact
simply because an election means his own dispace-
ment from power.
the constitutional party is gaining power rapidly
Huerta can get money and nobody wants to fgnt
with his army. His house of shadow cards is falling
to pieces much as did the shell of Diazs power when
if was pin-pricked by the Maderists.

ONCE MORE, THE MARTIANS.

If the wonders of the future shall include
development of scientific knowledge that will solve
definitely the question of life the planet Mars and
make it possible for to study and understand the
conditions there the most fascinating of all fields of
research will be opened to That Mars really is
inhabited, by vastly Older tnan own, and
therefore far more advanced in knowledge and inte-
gence, is more and more generally believed by inves
tigators Prof Lowell's sturdiy maintained theory
that life is existent the planet is now indorsed
by another scientist Prof James H. Worthngton, who
has elaborated some features of the Lowell analysis
of Marian conditions.
Mars, being smaller than the earth, is Older" in
that it has cooled faster than the earth and therefore
is in much more advanced stage of its career. Its
water supply, Prof Worthngton believes-and herein
he agrees with Lowell-is disappearing. The canals
represent the engineering works of powerful race
struggling to maintain its existence. They bring
water from the polar regions where it is coldest
toward the equator probably in gigantic tubes, which
would be necessary to protect from the suns heat
and, therefore, from the tremendous evaporation
This evaporation is calculated on the assumption that
Mars is hotter than the earth, while the pressure of
the atmosphere is much less because the atmosphere
like the water, has been decreasing in volume Water
