(1) 10 COURT New Romance May Replace One Shattered by Elopement of Savannah Girl. MACON, July 23.—Members of the family of Dr. W. L. Pickard, President of Mercer University, are inclined to the startling theory that Miss Florence Martha Pickard, his daughter was drugged. and irresponsible when she wed Leverett R. Harrison, her former sweetheart, after her engagement to Karl Karsten, an Oxford University (England) graduate, had been announced. The ecloping bride sent frantic appeals Wednesday to her mother in Savannah, following a separation from her husband of only a few days. “Because of my daughter’s great strength of character,” said Dr. Pickard Thursday, “we feel sure she was taken advantage of by Harrison. The affair is a profound sorrow to me, but it is something I can not help. I know my daughter would not have acted as she has unless she was overpowered.” Suspect Soda Water. The Pickard family has not made the public charge that the girl was drugged, yet there is a chain of evidence to that end concerning which they are not reticent. It is known that Miss Pickard was ill from fever, and that she and Harrison on Friday of last week went to a drug store in Savannah and procured some soda water. Soon afterward they hastened to a clergyman’s, Miss Pickard succumbing to the fervent appeals of her former sweetheart, and were married. The minister, it is declared, has said he thought the young woman appeared and acted peculiarly, but that he attributed her behavior to her recent illness. A few hours after the marriage ceremony the couple left Savannah, Harrison displaying an eagerness to be away before Karsten, Miss Pickard's fiancée, should arrive. And Wednesday, five days after the elopement, Mrs. Pickard had a telegram from her daughter in New York State, begging her mother to hasten to her. Macon and Savannah were aghast at the news. Florence Pickard was the natural conclusion, has been abandoned by the man who forced her into marriage. Turns to Younger Sister. Meanwhile, as heroes of the story books have turned from fickle sweethearts to newer, kindlier love, Karsten is said to have found a balm for his heart in the companionship of Miss Elizabeth Pickard, the younger and the prettier of the college president's daughters. Karsten, arriving in Savannah fresh from England and full of plans for his marriage, was faced by the news that his bride-to-be had gone away with her former sweetheart. The Pickard family sorrowed with him, and received him into their Savannah home as a well-comed visiting. There was the younger sister, sympathetic and companionable. She was the antithesis of the girl who had continued on Page 2, Column 4. ATLANTA, GA., THURSDAY, JULY 23, 1914 New Haven Line Sued By U.S. Monopoly; No Alarm in ‘Street’ NEW YORK, July 23.—The United States Government today began its active prosecution of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad when the Department of Justice filed a bill in equity in the United States District Court here at noon today against the New Haven road as a monopoly. The bill charged that the New Haven has violated the Sherman act “in various ways by restraining trade and commerce in the New England States, and has acquired monopolies of railroads and water transportation and trolley transportation in Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts and New York.” The bill asks for a dissolution of the alleged monopoly. It emphasizes the density of population in the territory involved, which, it is claimed, makes the violation of The Sherman Act, the more reprehensible. Financial leaders professed today to see no cause for alarm. They believe the terms of dissolution ultimately to be decreed will conform with the agreement tentatively reached in conference between representatives of the New Haven and the Government. New Haven stock opened unchanged, but dropped a half-point later when trading in the stock stopped. War Rumors Lower European Stocks Special Cable to The Atlanta Georgian.

Marshall Nelms Thursday laid before Senator Hoke Smith in Washington all the known facts of the disappearance of his sisters, Beatrice Nelms and Eloise Nelms Dennis, for whom a nation-wide but entirely unsuccessful search has been conducted since July 9. The young man was given encouragement that the Government would undertake an immediate investigation of the charges of misuse of the mails which have been lodged against Victor E. Innes, Portland lawyer, by the members of the Nelms family, but Senator Smith regarded the doubtful probe of the allegation that Innes may have violated the Mann act. Along with these developments at the national capital came an entirely new line of investigation in Atlanta. This involved a thorough inspection of all the business. Papers of Beatrice Nelms and interviews with all her business acquaintances with her views of determining if her affairs were in such a condition as to furnish a motive for her strange disappearance, Meets Senator Smith. It has been said that she was not involved financially in any serious way, but Attorney Reuben Arnold, counsel for Mrs. J. W. Nelms, mother of the missing girls, wanted to make sure on this point so that nothing should be overlooked in seeking the reason for their disappearance. Nelms met Senator Smith in Washington at 12:30 o'clock and presented letters of introduction from District Attorney Hooper Alexander, Postmaster Bolling H. Jones and Attorney Arnold, dispatches to The Georgian said. The Senator took Mr. Nelms into the President’s room to talk with him. After looking over the letters, Senator Smith said that the Department of Justice had already held that the Government had no jurisdiction to investigate the Nelms case on the charge of violating the Mann white slave act, but it appeared probable that the postal laws had been violated by Nelms writing to Eloise as to investments which he would make for her, but which later were said to be fictitious. To McReynolds and Burleson, Senator Smith Thursday afternoon or Friday morning will introduce Nelms to Attorney General McReynolds and Postmaster General Burleson and Chief Postmaster Inspector Johnson, so that he can lay before them letters he has from Attorney Arnold and District Attorney Alexander. The letter which Nelms will submit to the department is in the form of a statement of the case in which Attorney Arnold holds that the white slave law has been violated by Nelms in inducing Mrs. Eloise Dennis to come West to meet him, and that The postal laws have been violated by the Mexican representatives representing that he was investing her $10,000 in land and securities in Mexico, Utah, and Montana, which investments are said to be fictitious. Senator Smith has made careful inquiry among Western Senators as to Innes and has learned that he lived a very secretive life in Carson City and that the newspaper references to his late were adverse. The executive W. F. Harper had a conference with Attorney Arnold early Thursday, after which it was announced that renewed efforts would be made during the day to obtain possession of the much sought telegrams that passed between Victor Innes and Mrs. Dennis while she was living in her Smyrna home. T. O. GOURT ORDERED TO GOURT Orders Attorneys to Bring Action, Denying Colonel's Tirade Against Him. NEW YORK, July 23.—William Barnes, Jr., chairman of the Republican State committee, often called "Boss" Barnes, this afternoon stated that he had authorized his attorneys to bring suit for libel against Theodore Roosevelt. The suit will be based on the statement issued by the Colonel last night, in which Roosevelt said: "In New York State the two political machines are completely dominated, the one by Mr. Barnes, the other by Mr. Murphy. The State government is rotten throughout, in almost all its departments, and this is directly due to the dominance in politics of Mr. Murphy and his sub-bosses, acting through such entirely sub-servient agents as Governors Dix and Glynn, aided and abetted when necessary by Mr. Barnes and sub-bosses of Mr. Barnes. “Barnes and Murphy Alike.” “Mr. Murphy and Mr. Barnes are of exactly the same moral and political type. Not one shadow of good comes from substituting one for the other in the control of our Government.” "These hobbes do not hold public office themselves. They act through the holders of public office whom they control. Yet they really form the all-powerful invisible government which is responsible for the maladministration and the corruption in the public offices of the State." In making known his determination to sue Colonel Roosevelt, Barnes issued the following statement: "I have nothing whatever to say in reply to Mr. Roosevelt’s diatribe, except that it lacked dignity and self-restraint and is without foundation. Denies Every Statement. "When an issue of this kind is raised by a person of such prominence, one has but one of three courses: Submit to the aspersions; enter into an unseemly personal controversy, or to appeal to the courts in order to enable the person who utters those libels to establish the facts as legal evidence. I deny the truthfulness of every statement made by Mr. Roosevelt in his publication this morning, and I have instructed my counsel, Ivins, Witloff and Hogue, to bring an action for libel without delay against him. "The issue in the primary canvass of the Republican party is in no way related to me, and the issue between Mr. Roosevelt and me will be judicially determined." Indict Business Man For Arson Attempt MOULTRIE, July 23.—J. M. Martin, a prominent business man of Norman Park, has been indicted on an attempted arson charge.

Ebert, a plumbing contractor’s wife. Senator Promises To Expose Fraud in Indian Land Leases WASHINGTON, July 23.—Denouncing the land-leasing situation at some of the principal Indian reservations in the West as scandalous, Senator Lane, of Oregon, today issued a denial to the three House members of the joint Congressional commission which has been investigating the Indians’ complaints. He said the inquiry would go forward. “We shall show how a ring of cattle men have leased the Indian lands by sharp bidding and have overbid their competitors because they made a practice of grazing stock on the Indians’ allotments, in defiance of law. “If the Indians made a fuss the cattle men would not buy their hay, or if they bought it they would bargain for it by measurement and then only in winter, when its volume had shrunk to a minimum. I am told that one man has made a million dollars from the Indians at the Crow reservation in Monuna by these outrageous methods.” Cardinal Gibbons, 80, Enjoys Good Health WESTMINSTER, MD., July 23— Cardinal Gibbons is 80 years old today. As has been his custom for the past few years, he spent the day in quiet at the beautiful home of Colonel John. Shriver, a few miles from this city.

Take advantage of NOW. HISZIE of THE AR AGI WILL PAaa, of! EATIERS Motion for Roll Call Friday Sus tained—Delay Asked to Convince Opponents, J After leaders of the House of Representatives had analyzed the child labor situation in Georgia, and in stirring and convincing speeches pointed out that the remedy lies in the enactment of laws that will take the little children from slavery in the mills and factories and give them a chance to acquire at least the rudiments of an education to equip them for the battles of life, the Sheppard child labor bill won the first clash when the measure came up for consideration Thursday. The test came when Representative J. E. Sheppard, of Sumter County, the author of the bill, asked unanimous consent that the debate be extended from 12:40 o’clock Thursday, the time to which it was originally limited, to the same hour Friday. There was objection to the request. Motion Tests Strength, It became apparent at once that the opponents of the Sheppard bill were trying to force the measure to a vote, relying on the misunderstanding that exists among certain members as to the provisions of the bill to carry them through to victory. Mr. Sheppard then put his request in the form of a motion. It was plainly a test vote on the Sheppard bill and the Dorough amendment, which has been accepted by the author of the bill and others supporting it. The line was plainly drawn between the advocates and opponents of the bill—and Mr. Sheppard’s motion carried overwhelmingly. Leaders of the House regard the vote on Mr. Sheppard’s motion as indicative of the final vote when the measure reaches the roll call stage Friday. The Sheppard bill, before the House adjourned, had one vote recorded for it. Stone Votes for Bill. This is the votes of Representative Stone, of Dawson County, who asked that he be permitted to cast his vote, as he will be unable to attend Friday’s session. Mr. Stone voted for the Dorough amendment and the Sheppard substitute, and against the Moon substitute. Half a dozen other members tried to get the consent of the House to cast their votes the same way, but it was refused. The debate on the Sheppard bill at Thursday's session developed some of the strongest speeches members of the House have heard in recent years. Those who spoke in favor of the bill were Representatives Robert Blackburn, of Fulton County; Samuel Olive, of Richmond County, and Dorough, of Franklin County, and Smith, of DeKalb County. Arguments against the bill, expressing the ideas of the mill owners of Georgia respecting child labor, continued on Page 2, Column &.
