POpe's viii Drawn Up.

Rome, April 16l-11:35 a, m.-The
lawyer, Patriarch, who represents the
holy see, was summoned to the vati-
can this morning. The same lawyer
drew up the last testament of Pope
leo XIII and the inference is that he
as been asked to do the same for
Pop Plus x.
The Lawyer Patriarch was sum
moned after Professor Marchiafay a
the popes physician, had had long
conference with Cardinal Merry t.
VAL papal secretary of state.
Earlier in the morning the pope's
sisters entered the vatican and
were received by Manager Parolil,
the pope's nephew, who held them
Wanting in an ante-chamber until the
doctors had ended their visit They
then entered the popes chamber. Later
they adjourned to an adjoining chapel
where they heard two masses.
Private, but reliable information
as to the popes condition this morn
ing is to the effect that while he is
without fever today, he is much weak
er than at this time yesterday.
If his illness continues in its pres
ent course he will be weaker each
day Even if the bronchial affection
does not develop into actual pneumc-
MIA it is doubtful how long the CON
stitution of the patient can hold out.

SUMMONED
REV. LEWIS
FORMERLY A PASTOR HERE
lie Was q Widely Esteemed
Minister

In Americus, as throughout the STATE,
the broad field of his usefulness, the
announcement yesterday of the death
of Rev. Walker Lewis was heard with
profound sorrow, though not unexpect-
ed, in view of his protracted illness and
rapid decline within the past two or
three weeks. For four years pastor OF
the First Methodist church of Ameri~
Gus. he welded a wide influence for
good and no other minister here was
ever more generally esteemed AMI
beloved by the public at large, re-
gardless of church denomination.
Mr.. Lewis was one of the best
known ministers in Georgia, having
been connected with both the South
Georgia and North Georgia conferences
during his long pastorate. He was
born in Wilkes county, Ca, in 1847,
and was admitted to the South Georgia
conference in 1873, at Macon. During
his ministerial career, Mr.. Lewis
served among other churches those vt
Macon. Americus, Nashville, Little
Rock, Kansas City and Rome, Ca, this
latter church having been his last
charge.
Besides his work as pastor, M.
Lewis was for some time connect I'd
with the Florence Crittenden home in
Atlanta. A man of great firmness of
character, broad-minded, scholar and
distinguished as pulpit speake.',
his death will prove a loss to the state
at large.
Mr.. Lewis is survived by his wife ana
four sons, who have the sympathy u
all Georgians in the death of their low
ed one. The funeral services were
conducted Wednesday at the family
home in Atlanta, and the intermen;
W: take place this afternoon in Ca :

SONS Will
ASSEMBLE
SATURDAY
MEETING AT COURT HOUSE
Delegates to Chattanooga are
to be Named

Members of the Allen s. Cults camp
of Sons of Confederate Veterans will
meet Saturday morning in one of the
most important sessions held by the
camp this year. Among other matters
OF more than ordinary Importance will
be the selection of delegates to repre-
sent the camp at the meeting to be
held soon in Chattanooga in conjunc-
ton with the reunion of veterans IN
that city.
An effort will be made to still fur
tier increase the interest in the camp
of Sons of Veterans. For this purpose
it has been announced that the priv
ileges of membership will be extended
to the younger people of the city. The
regulations of the Sons of Veterans
provide that all boys who are sons or
descendants of veterans, if they are
rwre than twelve years old, are eIgl-
BILE for membership.
While membership is granted at the
age of twelve, the right to vote is M;
e,.oyed by these young members until
they are sixteen years old. 1t IS
thought that large number of re-
cruits may be secured for the camp
when the boys of the city realize that
those of this young age are eligible fo~
membership.

TWO GEORGIANS
ARE ELIMINATED
FROM CONTEST
FOR OFFICES IN GEORGIA
Opposition to ]. S. Davis and
Pratt Adams

Macon, Ga, April 16.-Mr. A. Pratt
Adams, of Savannah, has been elimin-
ated from consideration for the ap-
pointment of district attorney for the
southern district of Georgia Joseph S
Davis, of Albany, will not be appointed
marshal for the district, because of
the opposition of Senator Hoke Smith
These developments in the matter
of distributing federal patronage III
Georgia are certain to be of state
wide interest
]. S. Davis was recently designated
by Senator Bacon, as his choice for
the Office of marshal, and as the time
for appointment is now ripe it was
, expected that Mr. Davis nomination
would be made soon.
However, Senator Bacon learned that
Mr. Davis was personally distasteful
t. Senator Hoke Smith and upon con-
ferring with his colleague he found
that the junior senator did not look
with favor on Mr.. Davis appointment
Senator Bacon at once decided to elm
mate Mr. Davis from the list of appli-
cants, and to choose another who is
not Objectionable to Senator Smith.
There are twenty-five applications
on file in Senator Bacon's office. 1t is
expected that one of these applicants
will shortly be appointed The present
marshal, George White, is only hold
ing over in office until his successor
is named.
1t is understood that Senator Smith
objected to Mr. Davis because that
gentleman had always opposed him
politically. In fact, it is said that
in the several Brown-Smith cam
paigns, Mr. Davis was very active
for Brown.
Senator Bacon will confer with
Senator Smith again before recon-
mending any one either for the office
OF marshal or for district attorney.
Attorney General McReynolds he's
eliminated Mr.. Adams from the race
for district attorney, although Mr.
Adams had been selected by Senator
Bacon from numerous applicants. The
fact that Mr.. Adams was counsel for
the American Naval Stores Company
bars him, in the opinion of the at
torney general, from being the gov
ernments prosecuting officer in S0ut
Georgia.
Other applicants for the office of
district attorney are Robert l.. Ber-
ner, of Macon; David C. Barrow, OF
Savannah; Charles H. Hall, Jr., Of
Macon; John T, West, of Thomson,
and others.

REGULARS Won

Much Ginger Displayed by
Opposing Teams

A gingery game was played yester-

gdlle was hotly contested by both the
teams, and the fans who were present
in goodly number enjoyed the play
ing.
For the Regulars, Robinson AMI
Eaton were the batteries. Norris,
Alexander and Otte were on the mound
for the Yannigans with Wadsworth re-
ceiving. For a time the Yannigans
had good lead, but the regulars
came back" strong and beat them ont
to 4.
The lineup of the regulars was ii
little different from that in the Albany
game, as Spitznagel played short and
Blackwell third. This made stronger
infield probably than heretofore, as
these two new men are showing up
pretty well.
Daily games, one each morning and
one each afternoon, will be served up
to the fans every day until the open
ing of the season. Manager Weber
hopes to get him men thoroughly linn
bered up within short time.

TARIFF MEASURE
To PASS WITH
FEW AMENDMENTS
in OPINION OF UNDERWOOD
Leader of House COnferS
With Wilson

Washington, April 1G. FIFTEEN
per cent. ad valorem duty on raw
wool" was the slogan of the admins
tration anti-free- raw wool democratic
caucus today when consideration OF
the new tariff bill was resumed.
With the southern and New England
democrats still fighting the cotton
rate proposed in the new meas
ure, the anti-free wool members were
planning their attack on schedule X
which the caucus expected to reach
before the close of the day
At morning conference of dem
ocrats of Indiana, West Virginia
and many of the western states, it
was determined to stand by their de-
cision to fight for Is per cent. dutj,
which they claim was the original
agreement of the ways and means
committee before consultation with
President Wilson. Representative
Ashbrook, of Ohio, who has presided
over the anti-free wool conferences,
prepared to lead the fight on the eau
Gus floor. >
Though the opposition claims to
have the sympathies of more than 81
democratic members, the administra-
ton leaders insist that they canncg
muster that many votes on an amend
ment to change the bill as presented t.
the caucus.
Chairman Underwood. after an
early conference with President Will
son, expressed confidence that the
tariff bill would be approved by the
house caucus without important
amendment within three or four days.
Mr.. Underwood declared that while
the democratic majority was suffi-
ciently strong to put the measure
through the house, within short
time, the democrats would permit the
minority to be fully heard.
"Of course there will be many
amendments from our republican
friends he said. sbut the bill will,
pass the house just as it is approved
by the caucus and with only few
minor changes. You can't write
tariff bill of 1000 items without for
getting to cross a It" and dot an -
here and there. Inequalities alw4gs
cicep in and these have to be ad-
justed."
Mr.. Underwood said that he had
merely explained some details to the
president today and informed him of
the progress of the democratic can
