Al sects and creeds in Atlanta are
nraparing to give literally to the Bull
,arian relief fund, for which collec-
lions will be taken in the churches
sunday The tragic situation in
which Balkan war refugees find
themselves in the midst of an espe-
cisllv severe winter has aroused a
sympathetic response here.
DELAY means death. The women
and children from whose homes the
men Of the family went months ago
fl, ioin in the battle for what they
deemed a righteous cause are dying
Nv the hundreds every day. The men
in countless instances never returned
from the costly conflict. Many who
aid come back were so manned and
wounded that they were an added
burden at home.
REFUGEES Without Shelter.
With winter on. the refugees-5OO, D.
nao of them, mostly women and chill
dren-are without shelter, without
food and without clothes. Mother
live has brought out innumerable
heroic sacrifices of the women for
their children. but they will be in
vain unless help is extended and eX-
tended at once.
TIL, little ones are succumbing ev-
erv day to the cold and to starvation.
The mothers exhausted by their eff
forts to get warmth and food for the
Ia hot Ia in
despair. Only a most generous re-
sponse to the appeal from the strick-
an land will serve to relieve the dire
conditions.
The ministers of Atlanta were
asked to preach sermons in which
reference should be made to the pit
table state of the war refugees. They
Gladly consented and were equally
anxious to urge their congregations
to contribute literally to the collec-
lions.

Queen Arouses Ministers.
Several leading ministers are pre-
pairing special sermons. Others will
address their congregations on the
situation as it is at the time of talk
ing the offerings. They will urge that
the conditions of extreme restitution
with thousands facing starvation
should be relieved by generous Civ

Queen Eleanora's appeal, through
the Hearst papers, has aroused the
ministry of the United States. Special
sermons will be preached to the
churchgoers. not only in Atlanta, but
in New York, Chicago, Boston, Los
Angeles and San Francisco. The
special offerings taken in Atlanta, as
well as the individual subscriptions

SENATORIAL RACE
! GROWING LIVELY
Dunno Lewis Combination Ex-
pected to Put Candidate
Against Sullivan.
LATTER IN ON, Nor. CANVAS
Sherman Appears Republican Leader
and Prosressives Have Not Yet
Named FsVorite.

The Chicago Record-Herald thus
sizes the United States senatorial
race IN Illinois:
Illinois great contest over the cleo
ton OF a United States senator gives
signs Of emerging from a neouIous
stage
For the trst time in the history OF
this state the people Will nominate
and elect a senator by direct vote, I'M
der the new amendment TO the federal
constitution. The campaign VIII be
the most interesting one Illinois has
seen, perhaps, in a generation
On the republican side. where Sem
ator Lawrence Y. Sherman has little
active opposition for the nomination,
the situation is quite clearly defined.
On the democratic side it is differ
emit At least nine candidates are IN
the field more or less actively. Eight
of them at present are making an anti
Sullivan campaign. The ninth canci-
date is Roger c. Sullivan himself, who
now is engaged in get acquainted
pilgrimage through the agricultural
regions and the smaller cities and vii
lagos in Egypt in an endeavor to give
the natives optical proof that he Is
devoid of horns, hoofs and spiked
tail.
The progressives as yet have not de-
cided upon a candidate, although sew
eral men have been mentioned.
How Field Appears Now.
The roster of candidates to date ap-
pears as follows:
Democrats-Roger c. Sullivan. John
z. White. Frank D. Comerford. Harry
Woods, secretary of state; Barratt
O'Hara. lieutenant governor; James
c. McShane and James Traynor. all OF
Chicago. Lawrence p. Stringer Of
Lincoln; Carl S. Vrooman of Bloom
fngton.
Republicans-Senato L. Y. Sher-
man of Springfield; William E. Mason
of Chicago; Carl c. Countryman of
Buda-
Progressive (possibilities) - Ray
mond Robins of Chicago: Dean Frank
lin OF Macomb; Frank G. Allen Of Mo-
line.
The immediate question so far as
the democrats are concerned is this:
Whom will the Dunne-Lewis forces
pick as their candidate TO run against
Roger Sullivan"
that the Dunne-LeWis element will
have a candidate TO run in opposition
10 Sullivan His identity is conject-
uraL Several men have been men
toned and several covet the support
OF the governor and the democratic
senator from Illinois.
The theory has been that when the
Dunne-Lewis group picks its candidate
10 will serve TO eliminate many of the
other candidates and TO coalesce the
Sullivan opposition. but there are in
dications that this theory may fall
short when il comes TO practice.
At this distance from the primaries
IL appears more than improbable that
the fight will narrow down to a
straight-away contest between Mr..
Sullivan and some candidate backed
by the state administration and its
allies. The probability is that the field
will be quite large.
Several tentative candidates have |
been mentioned as the Dunne-Lewis |
choice.
First among them is Henry T. Raj

Strike Results in Broken Nose
Eugene Cyphers has declared NINA
ture strike against his former en-
ployers, the Ewert & Richter Express
and Storage company, and he tried to
prevent the operation of strike-break-
ers when he hit Glen Fowler and broke
his nose, but Fowler was the wrong
man. Now Fowler says he will file a
complaint against Cyphers. The affair
was staged in the alley at the rear Of
the Ewert 6 Richter establishment on
East Fourth street. Cyphers, who was
formerly employed as helper by the
express company, quit his job two
weeks ago, and since he seems to have
had a peculiar hatred toward his for
mer fellow workmen because they too
did not give up their employment. 1t
is said that he has at times threat
ened them with violence. Seeing Fow-
Ter, who on Friday was employed by
the company, Cyphers decided he was
one of the strike-breakers. He APP
preached him, and without saying
word, struck Fowler on the nose,
breaking the cartilage and producing
severe hemorrhage.
