THE Russians picked up the Caroline

boat disguised as yacht. and with it ran
the blockade and safely delivered the
craft at Libau."
Mr.. Stone had an interesting explana-
ton as to why the American golfers
made such a poor showing at Sandwich.
"rhe day before the meeting" he said,
the charge was made that the Yankees
were selling interviews and were, in Of
feet. professionals since, although not
paid for playing golf, they made money
out Of the game by telling of il. This re-
ferred. OF course. TO the fact that Ouimet
and others were writing their views for
American papers.
THE charge put Jerry Travers clean
of his game. The only reason Herreshon,

that he saw the effect the thing had had
on Jerry and decided 20 cut in. OF
course, II was all a misunderstanding. but
it was taken rather seriously"

Pure milk. pure water and modern

"Vacationists should be inoculated
against typhoid fever" he asserted.
The value of the practice Of protective
treatment against typhoid fever is now

need for such measures becomes apparent

SLIGHT ADVANCE
MARKING COTTON
SITUATION HERE

While Americus warehousemen could
not quote any great improvement IN
the cotton market this morning, the
situation appears little brighter with
some slight assurance of better quo
tations as stocks are reduced. Buy
ers are in the market here today, and
where any line of really good cotton
is offered, IL cents is the price
quoted. This, however is not for just
an occasional bale, but any number
from score up will bring a good
price.
The greater portion of the crop held
in Americus is less than good middling
grade, and worth, probably, from 6
cents to cents here
The action of the market on the
approach of the resumption of regu-
lar trading would indicate that the
expectation is for wave of selling
on the re-opening. Some people ex-
press a belief that the futures market
will be availed of by parties wishing
to buy cotton and finding the purchase
of spots too cumbersome and eX-
pensive. Others think there will be
a rush to higher spot holdings.
Although exports are on a some
what larger scale, stocks are now rap
idly piling up. Takings by American
mills do not increase as fast as the
low prices would seem to warrant. In
consequence port stocks are $4,000
bales and stocks at interior towns are
about the largest on record.

TURKEY WINS FROM
RUSSIA IN CAUCAS|A.
Be RI IN REPORTS.

BERLIN, Nov. 14.-(via wireless to
Sayville, N. J.)-An official Turkish
communication received here early to-
days says the Russian forces in the
Caucasian mountains were signally de-
feated by the Turks in an engagement
occurring November 18th, and details
of which have just reached CONSTANT
nople. Reports from Milan, Italy, says
sanguinary fighting has already oc-
cured in Egypt and that a severe en-
gagement is in progress near the Suez
canal. Four wagonloads of English
wounded have arrived at Cairo, and
a mutiny among native troops is said
to have occurred. Many well known
Egyptians have been arrested and i'm
prisoned by the English military au-
thorities.

! While from the United States court
officials at Macon there had not been
received here at two o'clock this af-
ternoon any official information rel
ative to indictments which may have
been returned there this morning in
; the recent investigation of affairs of
the Americus National Bank, reports,
seemingly authentic, are to the effect
that indictments would ,be returned
this morning against three of the for
mer officials of the defunct bank.
Telegraphic inquiry was sent this
morning to officials OF the court, but at
2 o'clock, this afternoon a reply had
not been received.
The grand jury completed yesterday
afternoon the examination of numer-
Gus witnesses from Americus, Dawson,
Savannah and other points, and two
days-Thursday and Friday-were de-
voted to investigation of the bank case.
1t was announced later, unofficially,
that the investigation had been very
thorough and that, in all likelihood,
several indictments, three or more,
might be reported this morning
against NJ. NJ. Lowrey, G. D. Wheatley,
Jr, and Emmett Hawkins.
In such event immediate service up
on the defendants would be made by a
deputy marshal and bond given for
the appearance of the defendants at
any early convening of the court. Just
when such adjourned session will be
held is not known here. The court
might be convened again in Macon
prior to the holidays, or the adjourned
term might follow early in the new
year
In the event indictments are found,
the officer of the court may come here
today to secure the bonds required.

BOMB FOUND IN
n. Y. COURTROOM
IN 7 { Ended FOR
GOVERNOR ELECT
(By Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, Nov. IA bomb,
somewhat similar to the one that
wrecked the entrance to the Bronx
county courthouse last Wednesday,
was found this morning in a room of
the Toombs courthouse. The bomb
was discovered in a deserted court
room just below the office CT District
Attorney Whitman, governor-elect of
the state.
The bomb, which was found by a
member of the police force and de-
stroyed before it could perform it's
mission, contained enough gunpowder,
slugs and bullets to completely wreck
the building. The policeman whs saw
the bomb and extinguished the fuse
before the explosion took his life in
his hands as the fuse was almost burn
ed to exploding point.
Governor-E Elect Whitman, as dis
trict attorney of the state has been un-
usually vigorous in prosecution of the
lawless gangsters of the city. His per-
severence in the Rosenthal and other
cases has made him the
enemy of the gangsters. There is no
doubt but that the bomb was placed
in the courthouse for the purpose of
ending the career of the newly-elected
governor of the state.
