ATLANTA RECALL DEFEATED.
Mayor and Police Commissioners Win
Two to One.

ATLANTA, Ga, January 6.-Com-
plete unofficial returns on special
election on the proposed recall OF
Mayor James G. Woodward and five
members of the Atlanta police COM
mission showed majorities of approx
mately two to one against the recall.
The vote on the recall of the five
members Of the police commission and
the mayor, who is an ex-officio member,
was asked because the commission re-
duced James L. Beavers from chief Of
police to a captaincy. Beavers resigned
rather than accept the reduction. His
friends claimed he did not have a fair
trial. Beavers was accused of not
obeying the orders of the police board.

accounted for the big price asked by
the contractors for this construction.
The roof garden was not part Of the
original specifications for the building,
and the bids made were separate. The
estimate of cost made by the Office of
the supervising architect was in the
neighborhood of $4,000. whereas the
contractors said it couldn't be done
under about $4,000.
Bookings of orders for steel. it is
understood, are for delivery a year
ahead. For delivery in nine months
a premium is asked, and nine months
delivery was what would have been
necessary.

mental effect proper to a government
building in the capital of the nation.
The stone is to be light limestone.
The substitution of stone for brick
will cost the government an added
100000 and cause some delay in con-
struction. Even so, the cost will be
well within the appropriation. The
winning bid on the structure was ap-
proximately s1,s0o.ooo, whereas there
is about s2,5o0,o0o available for con-
struction from appropriations already
made.

sidered that a government building in
Washington. rather than the Cross Cor
ners post Office, demanded monumental
treatment.
The change will make small altera-
tions in the structural design, which
lends itself to stone as readily as to
the brick facing originally planned.
The few changes will be made neces-
sary by the physical differences in the
material.
But there is to be no garden lunch

but a majority of them already had
suffered great losses. The Croatian
and South Hungarian regiments dis

cious resistance under most difficult
conditions.
The Russian attacks against the
bridgehead near Uscieczko and in the
sector of Jaslowice also shared
similar fate to those near Toporoutz
Farther north there were no important
events.
Italian war theater: In consequence OF
the clearer weather the artillery ac-
tivity yesterday afternoon was more
vigorous along the entire front OF
the coastal district. especially in the
krn district. Near Oslayia 1t reached
its highest violence. A fresh attack
against a trench which our troops
had captured north of Dole and
hand-grenade attack on our position
north of Monte San Michele were re-
pulsed.
Our airmen dropped bombs on military
buildings at Ala and Strignc.

Russian attacks were made in as
many as eight lines following each
other but all broke down under our
fire, with heavy losses. The Croatian
and South Hungarian regiments held
fast under the most diff1cult clrcum-
stances.
Russian attacks against the bridge
head al Toczienskn and in the JUS
lovice district equally failed.
On the Isonzo front the artillery was
active especially in the Krn district
and near Oslavia. The Italians again
