JUNK DEALERS BUY
ROAD FOR 100000
To Sell Georgia Coat g. Piedmont as
Going Railway, if Purchase
is Confirmed.

Brunswick, July 1.-The Georgia
Coast and Piedmont Railroad was to-
day sold by special master to the
firm of Gordon & Friedman, OF New
York, junk dealers, for the upset price
of $780, 900. There were no other bid
ders on the property, and after crying
it the limited time, the special master
knocked II down to the New York
concern.
Although $30G0UO was the upset
price fixed by Judge Evans, Of the
United States court, there is some
doubt here as to whether or net the
sale will be confirmed. ii is pointed
out that the rail alone on The road,
which has length of a hundred miles,
is worth more than the price bid on
the property, the water front tarmi-
nal property in this city is worth a
hundred thousand and the ferry across
the Altamaha river is valued at least
$500, 900. The purchasers announced
that in the event the sale in confirm
ed, they vii sell the road to suit any
purchaser as going road in part or
in any shape purchasers may desire.
The buyer of the road is the same
firm which bid 100000 recently ON the
local picric acid plant, the bid being
rejected by the government as being
too low.

a corresponding increase in the num-

of Shantung Pact.

BOTH OBJECTIONABLE

Forced to Yield to Dictates of Lloyd
George - Williams Did Not Resign
Because Of Shantuns/ Agreement.

Washington. Aug. 22.-Prof. E. p
Williams, who resigned from the Amer
lean peace commission at Versailles
during the Shantung discussion, was
the only witness called before the SEN
ate committee today. 1t had been re-
ported that Professor Williams. who
was formerly head Of the department,
of the far east, had left the commits
sion because he could not agree with
it. This was denied by Secretary
Lansing.
\ first-hand story of the negotiations
which resulted in the treaty provision
giving Japan control in Shantung pro-
vince, China, was told to the senate
foreign relations committee today by
Professor Williams.
Professor Williams said he had "ob-
jected very strongly" to the Shantung
settlement, but that his resignation
from the peace commission had not
been due to his opposition.
Britain Forced Wilson to Acquiesce.
On April %. the witness said, Presi-
dent Wilson asked him which Of the
proposed alternatives would be less in
furious to China-the transfer of the
German Shantung rights to Japan or
insistence ON the execution of Japan's
treaty with China growing out of the
famous twenty-on one demands Of 1915.
II replied" continued Professor
Williams, that I hoped neither course
would be necessary. The president
said that unfortunately Great Britain
and France We're bound by certain en-
gagements with Japan to support Ja-
pans claims in Shantung and that
Lloyd George said he would bow only
on the consideration that the 1915
treaty was executed.
The president added that the war
seemed to have been fought to estab-
lish the sanctity of treaties, and while
some of them were unconscionable, il
looked as tho it would be necessary to
recognize them"
