Atlanta Ga.-
While city detectives Monday
night and Tuesday morning
searched the city for Miss Clara
Biell Griffin, aged twenty-three,
of 265 North Ashby street, she
lay in the Grady hospital recover
ing from an illness which had
suddenly attacked her.
Her whereab6uts was discover
ed shortly before noon after
members of her family and the
police had begun a systematic
search of the city. Miss Griffin
was an employe of the National
Pencil factory and the coinciden
ce led to the beginning of another
investigation of the building.
City Detective John Black late
Tuesday morning, together with
Louis A. Griffin, a brother,
were ready to start a tour of the
factory when attaches of the
Grady hospital, who had heard
of the disappearance, telephon
ed that she was in that institu
tion.
Although her mother and bro
thers were greatly agitated over
her absence, the girl considered
their hunt a joke when Louis
Griffin talked to her at the hos
pital early Tuesdsy afternoon.
‘‘It was nothing, she laugh
ed. I just didn’t want to wory
mother, sol didn’t tell her I was
sick. ’ ’
Miss Griffin, who is the dau
ghter of Mrs. Alice Griffin, left
her home at 6:20 o’clock Monday
mooning, telling her family that
she was going to work as usual.
She had been employed in the
pencil factory since July 10.
When she did not reappear in the
evening, as usual, her brother
went to the pencil factory. He
was told that it Had been closed
all day, Monday being a holiday.
He immediately notified the pol
ice. A preliminary search was
made by plain clothes men Mon
day night. This was continued
by the detectives Tuesday morn
ing.
Mrs. Griffin was deeply petur-
bed over her daughter’s absence.
She feared a repetian of the
Mary Phagan murder.
When told that her doughter
had been fonnd in the hospital
she pictured an attempt at suicide
recalLng the death of her sister
by this means last fail. She
was soon reassured that her
daughter’s illness wasnot serious,
however.
At the hospital the[girl told her
brothev that she had worked at
the pencil factory until 10 o’clock
Monday morning and then feel
ing faint had gone to the hospi
tal on a street car. This is in
contravention to the statement
of Manager N. V, Darley, of
the factory, who declared that
the plant had i6e«n closed all of
Monday. .
Hot Springs, Ark., Sept 6.-
Fire which started in a negro's
cabin at 3:30 o’clock this a^er-
noon is slowly dying out at the
foot of West Mountain, the
southern extremity of Hot
Springs, at midnight after re
ducting to a smoldering mass of
wreckage an area more than a
mile in length and from seven
to ten blocks wide in the eastern
section of the city. An accurate
statement of the monetary loss
is not possidle tonight but it is
roughly estimated at gl0,000,-
0)0.
Governor Hayes arrived in
Hot Springblate tonightand will
probably order a military patrol
of the burned district tomorrow
morning. United States troops
also are expected from Little
Rock to add to the guard on the
military reservation.
In the path of the flames were
manufacturing establishments,
hotels a number of the more pre
tentious residences and public
buildings. All were destroyed.
It is estimated that 2,000 persons
are homeless.
So far as can be ascertained
there were no fatalities and the
few that were hurt suffered only
minor injuries.
Among the buildings destroy
ed were the city’s light, water
and power plants, the county
courthouse, the high school build
ing the park Moody and Princes
hotels, St. Louis Iron Mountain
and Southern railroad station
and shops and the Ozark sanitari
um. Smaller buildings by the
hundred were reduced to ashes.
But few of those whose homes
were burned saved any of their
belonging, and guests of the
hotels gave little heed to their
valuables and luggage in their
effects to escape with their lives.
The fire orginated within se
veral blocks of the United States
army and navy hospital and took
a south and east couise.

Instead.
Mrs. M. B. Wallace, of Ander
son, South Carolina found her
husband who she says, deserted
her several weeks ago, by a pec
uliar co-incidence Tuesday morn
ing. As a result Wallace is lock
ed in the police station on a
charge of desertion. He prob
ably will be arranged before City

Mrs. Wallace had last seen her
husband in Anderson last August
she told the police. He had left
her and their two children to go
to Lindale to seek work. She

said and finally she came to At

employment and support her
children,
Wallace, it has been disclosed
went to Lindale but remained
there only a short time. He then
came to Atlanta with the inten
tion of getting a job here.
Tuesday morning both went to
the Fulton Bag and Cotton milis.
The husband arrived a few
minutes before his wife. It is
required of persons who apply
for positions at the mill that they
sign their name on a register
before they enter the mill. As
Mrs. Wallace was affixing her
name to the book she discovered
that of her husband on the line
above.
She immediately communicat
ed with the police. Probation
Officer Hollingsworth was sent
to the mills. He arrested Wal
lace at the g;ate

Not until the State Supreme
court determines whether or not
the city had the right to sell its
sidewalks will the sale of the
market hoii|j^. property to the
Tucker estate be confirmed.
Theresia little doubt of the city's
right to sell sidewalks and the
case that will be carried up will
be for the purpose of forever
securing the title. It is expect
ed that work will begin on the
new market house site by the
last of the month.
Neither President Finley nor
Vice President Andrews of the
Southern railway will be able to
attend the hearing here tomor
row for the purpose of investi
gating the sale and dismember
ment of the old Cape Fear and
Yadkin Valley railroad. The
president of the Coast Line will
be on hand, however Piesident
Finley will be unable to attend
and Colonel Andrews is indis-
j)Qsed. For this reason it is ex-
petted that the first session will
be short.
One of the largest fall dockets
to confront the officers has been
placed on the docket in Wayne
county for this week 125 cases
