MM CASE
TO BE HARD FOUGHT
Preliminary Tuesday Af
ternoon. Will Witness
Stuborn Contest by At
torneys.
The preliminary trial of Policeman
M. O. Matthews, charged with the
murder of Ed. C. Turner on the nigh;
of Tuesday, August 11th, will be held
before Magistrate B. L. Strange at 2
o'clock Tuesday afternoon, in either
the city or superior court room, at
the Richmond county court house.
The prosecution will be vigorous
and determined. George T. Jackson,
Esq., employed by Turner's relatives
and rrlends on the day after the kill
ing, has been active and energetic in
his preparation tor the preliminary.
He has secured much evidence and
will Htroduce numerous witnesses.
He hopes with this to outweigh the
evidence and testimony of police of
fleers and friends of Matthews, sev
eral ot whom testified at the coro
ner's inquest.
And with equal determinnation will
C. A. Picquet, Esq., conduct the de
fense. He has an advantage, in that
the testimony of Sergt. Broggerman,
the nearest eye-witness, will exoner
ate Matthews, unless his statement
at th preliminary is at variance with
the one he made before the coro
ner's jury. slr. Picquet was in con
ference today with A. J. Matthews, a
brother of M. O. Matthews, with Mat
thews's uncle, and with other interest
ed parties.
There will be nothing veiled about
the preliminary. One of the large
court rooms at the court house was
selected so everybody who desired
to be present might have room. The
hearing begins promnaly at 2 o'clock.

exclaimed: "Henry must be going daft
on autos. I will have to speak to him
about that.”
*‘Hls Royal Highness is cetainly a
motor enthusiast,’* said the friend wttn
whom Wilhelm was talking, “but he
doesn't quite forget his surroundings,
For instance: When it began to ram on
the occasion mentioned he at once jut
on an overcoat, and observing a non
commissioned army officer nearby, who
was braving the wet, called out to him
‘Didn't you bring a coat along?”
The sub-lieutenant replying In the
negative. Prince Henry ran to his auto
mobile some hundred feet away, got a
rubber blanket and handed It to the
soldier.
1 leave before you do, just send it buck
to Kiel and don’t prepay charges, please,
said his Royal Highness.

Him BILL
HILL BE CONTESTED
Local Railroad Men Say
Govenor Will be Asked
Not to Sign it on Account
of Technicality.
Much interest is evinced through
out the state over the bill now await
ing the governor’s signature, which
calls for electric headlights on all the
locomotives used in Georgia. Thera
is much speculation just now as to
whether the bill as it now stands will
become a law as the railroads are
fighting it on technical grounds.
After the firßt passage of the bill,
which was carried unanimously in the
house, the measure has been fought
vigorously by the railroads. Ths sen
ate failed to pass the original bill,
but passed a substitute referring the
matter to the railroad commission of
Georgia. When the amended bill
came back to the house the legisla
ture refused to concur, but passed
again the original measure and sent
it back to the senate, which receded
from its former position, but did not
actually pass the bill.
On this technical point the rail
roads will contest the matter to the
limit. They will do this, it is under
stood, not on the grounds that it will
cost them more money, but upon a
genera! rule they have established.
It is said, to fight every piece ot leg
islation which tends to compel them
to take any action in any direction.
Those who are behind the bill
claim that it has legally passed and
are endeavoring to have the measure
declared a law. They state that It
will cost the railroads of the
$140,000 to equip all engines witY.'
electric headlights and that the cost
of maintenance is even less than with
oil. In addition to this they declare
that a few wrecks averted would
more than save the railroads the ori
ginal expense.
With the oil headlight it is stated that
objects 60 yards away are barely dls
cernable while with the electric head
light objects 335 yards away are plain
ly observed. The reflection of the
electric headlight can be seen for
miles and the light is regarded as
one of the inoat desirable of all mod
ern improvements.
LOCAL MILITARY
RECRETJO RANGE
Departure of Georgia
Team for Fort Clinton re
calls Lack of Practice
Place Here.
The Georgia Ride team left Atlan
ta Saturday afternoon for Fort Clin
ton, Ohio to participate In the na
tional rifle shoot now in progress
there, without an Augustan on the
team. The local military officers
are very much chagrined but Au
gusta has not a range it would be
v-orse than useless for a man with
out practice to try to compete, first,
with the state men and then with tho
regulars.
About two years ago the Rtato sent
a committee here to select a site tor
a rifii- range but they couldn't find
a suitable site on thla side of the
river. The committee located a place
in North Auguma but the range
could only be made with the consent
of the South Carolina authorities.
The local military and the authorities
couldn't get together and that was
the last of a rifle range In Augusta.
Allan a. Savannah and Macon have
ranges.
Capt. J. Coleman Demnsfy, of the
Richmond Hussars, said this morning,
that It was an easy matter to find a
range for the old Springfield rifle but
the new rifles have such long range
that It Is a hard matter to find a
suitable location, as it must be at
least 1,500 vards long
MaJ. George P. .Elliott said: A
rifle range In Augusta would be the
best thing that could happen. It
would gl'e the men aomethlng to Jo
and would stimulate Interest In the
miiita. The reason that we haven't
one Is that the country s not suit
able. Before his removal to Augus
ta Mai. Elliott was a men|4r of the
South Carolina team.
