UNDERWOOD GHOSEN 1. 5. SENATOR BY BIG MAJORITY

Commons Pass Bill Second Time
and Compromise Will Be
Accepted by Ulster.
By HERBERT TEMPLE.
LONDON, April 7.—After a fight of
28 years, hoxpe rule for Igeland is
now practically assured. By July 1,
supporters of the Government claimed
to-day, the home rule bill will be on
the statute bocks, and immediately
afterward the first steps will be taken
to establish an Irish Parliament in
Dublin.
Although the Government’s major
ity on the division on the second
reading of the home rule bill was cut
to 80, members of the Cabinet do not
regard this as indicative of hostil
ity on the part of the people at large
against the measure.
The vote taken on an amendment
for the rejectio %Wl resulted;
Noes, 356; ayes, 216, :
Now Goes to Lords.
The bill now goes to the House of
Lords, but their power to Kkill the
legislation is dead as a result of the
veto bill. They can reject it, but the
measure will come again jinto the
Lands of the Cabinet, where the re
jection of the Peers will be rejected.
The measure becomes a law by regal
assent,
It now remains for the Govern
ment and representatives of the anti
home rulers of Ulster Province to
reach an agreement, There is every
likelihood that this soon will be an
accomplished fact.
The conciliatory attitude adopted
within the past few days by Sir Ed
ward Carson, leader of the Ulstel
Unionists, and some of the chief fol
lowers, indicates that the Orangemen
will accept the original proposals of
the Government which give the
Protestants in the Ulster counties the
right of a referendum to say wh#iher
or not they shall be excluded from
the workings of the home rule bill
for six years. The sea of politics still
bubbles hotly, but the talk of eivil
war has died out.
Messages for Redmond.
John Redmond, leader of the Irish
Nationalists, who has devoted his life
to ‘the fight for home rule, received
hundreds of messages of congratula
tion to-day from his followers. Simi
lar telegrams were sent to Premier
Asquith, who is campaigning in East
Fife, in Scotland.
It is believed that the return to
Parliament of the Premier will see
the beginning of tangible plans for a
federal form of government for the
Pritish Isles, a proposal which, under
the surface, seems favorable to a ma
jority of the Ulster Unionists.
Debate on the home rule bill in the
House of Peers will be the signal for
another attack upon the Government,
and will probably see the renewal of
A. Bonar Law’s demands that the
home rule bill be submitted to a ref
erendum of the people before it lsi
finally placed upon the statute books.
Such an appeal, according to Irish and
Liberal leaders and even many Un
jonists, will be futile and vain.

Atlantany are watching with con
siderable interest the outcome of the
search for Mrs. Edith Wilson, the
captivating young society woman who
vanished last week after living the
life of a millionaire in New York,
Newport and Narragansett Pier, and
whose multitudinous creditors are
engaged in a frantic pursuit of her
departed millions.
Chief among her victims is Mrs.
Josephine Lawrence, of New York,
grandmother of Mrs. Russell Hopkins,
whose wedding to Russell Hopkins,
of Atlanta, was a society event some
time ago.
Russell Hopkins is the son of the
well-known physician, Dr. J. R. Hop
kins. The child of Mr. and Mrs. Rus
sell Hopkins was popularly known as
the $5,000,000 baby.
Mrs. Lawrence admitted to the re
porters that Mrs. Wilson had obtained
“a considerable sum” of money from
her, adding that it was more than
“she cared to lose.”
Mrs. Wilson, who is described as a
little, soft-spoken woman, is alleged
to have manufactured /an endless
chain of credit through the agency of
“securities” in a strong box, which
were nothing but bundles of news
papers and time tables.
The strong box in the vault of the
United States Safe Deposit Company
in New York, whiech was supposed to
contain all of Mrs. Wilson's valuable
securities, including first mortgage
railroad bonds worth $2,000,000 and
jewelry worth $lOO,OOO, was opened.
There was nothing inside but this
trash.

Hobson Gets but Three of Sixty
’ seven Counties—White Wins
~ Short Term Over Rushton.
BIRMINGHAM, ALA, April 7.—
Oscar W. Underwood won the Sena
;torlal nomination over Richmond P.
Hobson in yesterday's Democratic
primary by approximately 25,000 ma
jority. Official figures are lacking in
all the races, and the count Is very
slow, owing to the lengthy Dballot.
However, enough returns have tome
in to indicate that Hobson carried
only about ihree of the 67 counties of
the State.
Both Hobson and Underwood will
retire from the House March 4 nexi,
Underwood entering the United
States Senate and Hobson private
life. No more decisive victory has
been won in Alabama in years,
Frank 8. WW nominated over
"Ray ‘Ru#hton, of- Montgomery, ‘as the
gshort-term Senator. The nomination
for this place is accepted more in the
light of a compliment from the people
of the State than otherwise, as the
victor only serves until~Underwood
takes his place.
Comer and Kolb in Runoff.
} Forme: Governor B. B. Comer,“
luntl-railroad man and prohibitionist,
‘réceived a plurality over his three op
‘ponents for the gubernatorial nomi
‘nation, and indications this morning
‘are that Reuben F. Kolb, local op
tionist, will run against him in the
‘second primary May 11 for the nomi-
Enauon. though Charles Henderson is
running Kolb a close race. Comer's
friends confidently expected he would
receive a majority vote yesterday, and
the fact that he failed to do so was
one of the surprises of the returns.
The anti-Comer factions of the parly
‘will likely combine against him and
it is Goubtful whether he will receive
the nomination in the second race.
Thomas E Kilby received the nom
ination for Lieutenant Governor by
‘an overwhelming majority.
Congressional Results,
In the Congressional contests the
returns received this morning indicate
George Washington Taylor, Congress
man from the First or Mobile District,
has been defeated by O. L. Gray, Wil
liam B. Bankhead is the nominee from
Hobson's Sixth District over William
B. Oliver. Judge E. R. Almon is evi
dently the winner in the late Con
gressman Richardgon's Huntsville dis
trict, and George Huddleston, radical
Progressive, is nominated from the
Birmingham district to succeed Un
derwood in the House.
Bride Nearly 4 Times
As Large as Hushand
MACON, April I~—One of the larg
est marriages in the history of Ma
con took place last night. The bride,
Miss Emma Ford, 25 yea;s'of age,

Napoleon Norman, a cotton mill em
ployee, weighs 140 pounds. The young
woman is so sensitive about her size
that, although she has lived in Macon
practically all of her life, she has
seldom been “downtown,” staying il
most exclusively at home.
The wedding was attended by seve
eral hundred persons.
GRAVES OF FLEEING GAULS.
ROME, April 7.—Professor Alessio
