ATLANTA is QUIET NOW
SLATON WAS TO LEAVE LAST
NIGHT ON LONG VACATION.
Situation Has Been Tense and TWEEN
ty-Six Men Are in Jail and Will
BE Court-Martialed

ATLANTA, June 28.-If outward
aspect indicates correctly the terrible
storm of violence which has been
brewing over this part of Georgia has
h dissipated. Last night the situation
Laround Governor Slaton's home was
Jas quiet as that of any Sunday night,
save for the continued presence of a
strong military guard. Within the
house were the former governor, Mrs.
| Slaton and members of the family,
and not thing to indicate that they
would be disturbed.
Probably this afternoon at five
o'clock Mr.. and Mrs. Slaton will leave
for what he says will be his honey
moon trip.
Had Dynamite and Weapons.
After making an unsuccessful eff
| fort shortly after midnight Saturday
morning to secure riot guns, which
are kept for protection at the Hemp
| hill avenue pumping station, crowd
| of 200 men marched to the country
home of former Governor Slaton, near
Buckhead Here they were met by
! the state militia and in the encounter
that followed twenty-sfx men, alleged
members of the mob, were placed I'M
der arrest.
They are now in the Fulton county
Jail. The prisoners range in age from
16 to 43.
Shots Were Exchanged.
The militiamen claim, it is under
stood, that some one fired six shots
at a guard posted in the rear of the
'Slaton home and within the district
where martial law is in effect.
/ Following these shots, which are
said to have been fired about two
Eo'clock Saturday morning, the pris-
oners state that the militia rushed
| two battaliOns into the niche in the
woods, and Immediately forced them
to retreat by firing two volleys into
| the darkness.
No one was hurt on either side,
The militiamen Immediately were
ordered to begin making arrests of
every one in the neighborhOOd of the
Slaton residence.
1t is said that the men taken in
custody had dynamite, caps, fuses,
lpistOls and other weapons.
Will Be COurt-Martialed.
They will have to face court-mar-
tial, which remains to be provided for
| by the adjutant general of the state,
under military regulations. The Sc
robustness of the situation in which
Ithey will find themselves is that they
were made military prisoners when
the militia within the zone covered
! by martial law rushed a crowd, and
in that crowd were men who fired on
the militia.
Costs $1,000 Day.
The cost to the state of protecting
it's laws is not a small one. A regi-
ment of soldiers, a troop of cavalry,
"a battery of artillery are not a small

BASEBALL GAMES TO DRAW
BIG CROWDS TO AMERICUS
Many Are Expected from Dawson and
MOntezuma on July 9Th.


The committee in charge of the
big Dixie highway celebration on
July 5th made wise move when they
contracted with the Dawson and Mon
tezuma ball teams for two games here
on the fifth. This one event will
bring fully 5000 people from those
two cities alone to see the games and
take part in the other festivities.
The intense rivalry between these
two cities has only been increased
this year. The two teams seem even
ly matched and are undoubtedly the
fastest amateur teams in the state.
The two games on the fifth will be
big league games and well worth
seeing.
Merchants Will Close.
News from both Dawson and Mon
tezuma say that every merchant in
the two cities with the exception OF
one drug store in each will close for
the day, and that three-fourths OF
the people will be in Americas.
The Central of Georgia will run an
excursion from Macon that will pick
up the Montezuma crowd. The ex-
cursion from Eufaula will care for
the Dawson contingent.-Americus
