KHAN INSURGENTS

Under an order signed late Monday
by Judge George L. Bell, in Fulton
superior court, the insurgent faction
of the Ku klux Khan, headed by for
mer Grand Goblin Harry Terrell, is
restrained from circulating denuncia-
tory literature about the khan until
further order of the court. 1t also is
stipulated that members Of the revolt
ing faction cannot attend khan meet
ings except by special invitation.
A further effect of the courts
order is to prevent the present impe.
rial officers from disposing of any
khan property until all the litigation
now pending is heard on July 6.
Attorney w. H. Terrell represents
the insurgents in the litigation, and
the khan is being defended by West
moreland & Smith.
Another development in affairs OF
the Invisible Empire" Tuesday was
the issuance of a statement from
Mrs. Elizabeth Tyler, denying in toto
the statements made in former I'm
perial Kilgrapp L. D. Wade's card of
Monday. She also displayed letter
recently received by her from Mr.
Wade, expressing utmost confidence
in her and lauding her for the faith
full service she rendered in the propa-
cation department Of the order"
In view of this letter, hardly see
how Mr.. Wade could consistently at
tack me at this time,' said Mrs. Ty-
Ter.

DISARMAMENT PLAN

PARIS, July 5.-(By the Associat-
ed Press.eThe plan for general
world disarmament which was laid
before the temporary mixed commits
sion on disarmament of the League
of Nations yesterday by Lord Robert
Cecil, of Great Britain, was present
ed in ull detail at Tuesday morn
ing's session of the commission. This
plan is said to have been favorably
received by most of the delegates.
All nations, according to Lord
Roberts plan, would sign a general
disarmament agreement and would
agree to go to the defense of nations
in their respective regions or con-
tinents in case of aggression.
The principal American objection
to article ten of the League of Ma
tons, it is held, would be met by
this regional defensive plan, mas
much as the United States already
is committed to similar policy on
the American continent under the
Monroe doctrine, and Lord Robert s
plan is designed to limit each ma
tons obligations in defensive al
lance to such regions.

be free to determine the number
necessary for Colonial and overseas
purposes. This ratio agreement
would be effective two months af-

pants and would contiue for ten

A, |, George Serves Term in
Prison for Alleged Murder,
and Dies Trying to Prove
His Innocence of Crime

AUSTIN, Tex, July 5.-Appear-
ance in Atlanta, Ca, yesterday of
an old letter purported to be the
dying confession of H. M. Sharp to
a murder in Texas SO years ago
cleared up death for which A. L.
George served a prison term. George
died a year ago after a futile at
tempt to have the state of Texas
right what he claimed to have been
a wrong inflicted upon him. George,
at the end OF his prison term, came
to Austin last year seeking to ap.
pear before the state legislature in
quest Of having his alleged wrong
righted, but death from physical
breakdown interviewed.
Atlanta dispatches last night said
Sharp, in a letter found in an old
machine drawer, confessed that he
killed Ed Konerick at Hottentot,
Fayette county, Texas, in 1884,
while the two were quarreling over
a can of sardines. The. letter was
dated Hallsville, Tex, June 20, 1890.
A. L. George, when he came here
seeking reward from the state, said
he was charged with the killing,
that he was sent to the penitentiary
and served his term, all the time
protesting his innocence. Broken in
spirit, feeble Of body and scarcely
able to walk, he was taken i'll and
lay for days at a small local hotel.
Local relief organizations took
charge Of him and he was removed
to a hospital, where he died. His
body was sent to Tennessee for
burial. With the body was sent
small handbag, which the aged man
said contained papers through which
he had hoped to prove his innocence
Georges presence in Austin was
hardly known at the time. When
he was taken i'll he sought no help,
but bore quietly his sufferings, hop
ing and looking forward to the time
when he could appear before the
legislature or at least committee
of that body.

RAILWAY SHOP|MEN
RETURNING To WORK
REPORTS DECLARE
Decision Does Not Weaken
Position of Shop Workers,
Says B, M, Jewell in Public
Statement

CHICAGO, July 5.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press. - Striking railway
shopmen, who walked out in am
swer to the nationwide call from
the headquarters of the six shop
crafts unions here last Saturdays
were reported drifting back to work
today in groups of uncertain size
Today was considered the turning
point in the strike of the $4,000
to 100000 workers. Although re-
spending generally to the call last
Saturday, railroad officials insisted
that many of the OBJECTIONS were
due to the desire of the men ia
take a holiday over the Fourth OF
July. Their statements were par
TALLY borne out today.

quarters and were confirmed by
news dispatches.
Officials of the Michigan Central
railroad announced today that $50
of the 900 shop workers who walked
out last Saturday at Jackson, Mich,
returned to work this morning. 1t
was stated also that $50 other men
have been put to work in place OF
those who quit. ~
Striking shopmen were returning
to work at Baltimore and Ohio, in
Baltimore, today, and new men
were being taken on at the Balti-
more shops of the Pennsylvania
railroad, according to information
given out by both companies.
Strike leaders, however, denied that
there was any concerted return
movement, and insisted that prac-
tically 95 per cent Of the local
men were out.

head, today. He declared that the
maintenance of way unions action
was not a surprise, and added that
IF they can find a way out of their
difficulties they are to be congratu-

The decision of the track laborers
does not weaken the position of the
shop strikers in the least, Mr.. Jew

The program outlined under the

CAROLINA
GOVERNOR PRAISES
WORK OF EXPERTS
Twelve Reports Prepared by
Investigators Are Present.
ed to General Assembly on
Wednesday

Governor Hardwick on Wednesday
transmitted to the house and senate
the twelve reports recently sub
mitted to him by Griffenhagen and
Associates, governmental efficiency
engineers with regard to various
agencies, departments and institu
tons of the state. ,s
In a message accompanying the
reports Governor Hardwick declared
that 1.-The suggestion made in some
quarters that these reports are not
worthy Of consideration because the
investigators were Chicago Yankees
is both absurd and puerile."
The important thing, the governor
said, is whether the reports are true
or not and whether the reforms sug-
gested can be accomplished or not.
One Of the departments in which
the experts suggest number of
economies is the department of agri.
culture. About ten days ago, i'm
mediately following tn publication
of a summary of the reports, ]. J.
Brown, commissioner of agriculture.
published in the newspapers a letter
from the treasurer of South Carolina
and the comptroller of South Caro-
lima, denouncing the experts and
branding their work in that state as
worthless.
Defends Reports
BY way of reply to this attack on
the experts Governor Hardwick, in
his message, said it was no doubt
true that certain departments in
South Carolina were not pleased
with the work Of the experts in that
state, and it seemed quite likely
that at least one of our departments
in Georgia is similarly displeased."
Governor Hardwick attached to
his message, by way Of further re-
ply, letter from Governor Cooper,
of South Carolina, praising the work
of the experts in that state in the
highest terms and attesting to their
character, their competence and good
judgment.
