Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 4—A move
ment to drive the negroes out of
northern Georgia counties, which
was began immediately after the
recent riots in Cumming, has be
come so widespread that leading
white citizens have appealed to
Gov. Brown to use the state
troops to restore order. The
movement was started after at
tacks pn several white women.
Hundreds of negroes have been
driven away. All over the region
notices have been posted at night
warning negroes they must go or
be killed.
Similar notices have been post
ed on the houses of white em
ployers of negroes, informing
them that if they do not assist
in getting rid of the negroes they
also will be made to suffer. So
many negroes have fled that the
wives and daughters of prominent
planters are forced to cook, wash
clothes and do other manual la
bor. Gov. Brown will urge the
authorities in the counties af
fected to check the lawlessness.
If they fail, he will consider us
ing troops.

Dalton, Ga., Jan. 4.—A revival
of the days of the Ku Klux Klan
took place here yesterday when
masked men took John Watkins
from his home to the center of
town, where he was severely
whipped. Watkins was then giv
en three days in which to leave
town. The action is said to have
followed Watkins’ refusal to get
rid of several alleged disorder
ly white women living in one of
his houses.

Los Angeles, Jan. i.—With the
idea of founding an exclusive
millionaire colony, a syndicate of
New Yorkers, including Andrew
Carnegie, Henry C. Frick, E. H.
Cary, president of the Steel
Trust; Charles M. Schwab, and

has offered *18,000,000 for a (>,
000-nrre tract adjoining this city.
All that remains is an agreement
on the terms for the sixty-day
option requested by the syndi
cate to enable a Dual inspection
and report to be made by engi
neers.
Almost all I he land lies al an
altitude of from 100 lo 050 feel,
which gives a wonderful view of
the city and surrounding hills, !
and in the distance the ocean.
The members of the syndicate
have been frequent visitors to
Los Angeles, and I heir plans for
thei exclusive park will outstrip
Tuxedo and other millionaire
communities. It is intended to
limit the membership lo fifty
families. Fine houses will be
built on large plots in accord
ance with a general landscape
plan. ' Coif links, polo grounds,
and other forms - of outdoor
amusements are included in the
plans. |
