Kans. Jan 12. Captain Lewis Whistler, of the Three Hundred and Fifty-fourth infantry, be came his own executioner today after suspicion had been directed at him as the probable murderer of four men in the bank at the national army camp here, who were hacked to death with a hatchet Friday night. Whistler shoi and killed himself with an army revolver after he had written a note in which he said: “I have been thinking of committing suicide for a long time but I never had a good rea son. Yesterday t went out and made myself a reason.” The note was addressed to a woman whose name army officials refused to make public. Tonight Major I*ee, chief of staff of the Eighty-ninth division, in an inter view said: ’’Every indication points to Captain Whistler as the murderer. The circum stances and evidence are so conclusive as practically to eliminate any possi bility of doubt.” The murders in the bank were com mitted some time after 8:30 o’clock last night. Cashier Kearney Womall. of the bank, who had been terribly bat tered and cut by the murderer, stum bled from the bank covered with blood and fell at the feet of a passing sen try. He declared that a man in a cap tain’s uniform had killed four men in the bank and had fled. Dogs Put on Trail Within ten minutes the military po lice and provost officer. Captain J. C. Smallwood, had taken charge of the sit uation. Guards were thrown about the camp and cities within a radius of 100 miles notified. Dogs were placed on the trail of the murderer. "Finger prints of the murderer were found in the bank. Because of Worn all’s declaration that a man in a cap tain’s uniform had done the killing, all captains at the post were ordered to re port. It was soon after this order was issued that Whistler’s body was found in his room in the officers’ barracks. Bloody towels were found in the room. There were splotches of blood on the washstand. Whistler was lying on the opposite side of the room from the bloody exhibits. It was known that Whistler had secured two hatchets from the supply department the previous day The men killed were: C. Fuller Winters. Kansas City, Mo. Carl Ohleson, Kansas City, Mo. John W Jewell, Springfield, Mo. —. —. Hill, a clerk. Womall. who is seriously injured, probably will recover. Captain Whistler was a veteran of the Spanish-American war. At the time of the last Mexican trouble he offered to recruit a regiment for border service. He was commissioned captain recently at the officers’ training camp at Fort Riley. Kans. For five years previous to that he had been employed as a rail way mall clerk. His home was at Sa lina, Kans. Womall’s Account ' Womall. in periods of conscious ness in the hospital today, told a dis connected story of the murder. The employes were kept after regu lar hours by the large volume of busi ness yesterday, he said. With the em ployes was Jewell, editor of the post's daily paper. There was an insistent knock at the door about 8:30. They admitted a man who covered them with a revolver, lie forced Woman to tie the hands of the other four men. Then he tied Womall, stuffed all the currency in the vault in his pockets and turned toward the door. "You recognze him. don't you?” Win ters asked Womall. Wornall replied in the affirmative. “You know me, do you?” cried the robber, “I syre do, you scoundrel,” replied Winters. The robber stopped short, hesitated, an<t in that moment became a murderer. Swings His Hatchet Springing at the helpless men, he swung his hatchet. Wornall, thy last one struck, was forced to see his com panions battered and hacked to death, without any chance for resistance. Jewell worked in the advertising de partment of the New York Times at one time and his father is editor and pub lisher of the Springfield. Mo., Leader. Winters resided in Kansas City prior to the opening of the army bank, when he removed to Manhatan. a sohrt distance from the post. He was vice president of the National Reserve bank at Kan sas City and was cashier of the Army bank. Ohleson was nineteen years old and a graduate of the Kansas City public school. Ohleson’s father, a Kansas City contractor, who is building a new structure for the Army bank, was vis iting with the bank employes. O. M. Hill, had recently come from Oklahoma and was employed as a clerk in the bank. „ Wornall was a college chum of Jewell's and a resident of Kansas City. Real Army Captain Robbed Army Bank CAMP FUNSTON. Kan., Jan. 12. Kearney Womall, of Kansas City, the only survivor of five men who were in the army bank here last night when the institution was robbed, today told the authorities the robber was an army captain he recognized, it was announced I this afternoon. It is understood he gave the officer’s name. Military police within the cantonmei!’ and officers of surrounding towns and citizens today were searching' for the man or men who last night killed with axes four men and seriously wounded another in the army bank on the mili tary reservation here and obtained as loot, yet unstated, an amount of money and Liberty bonds. One of the robbers, it was stated, wore the uniform of a captain of the United States ahmy.. Army officers, however, do not believe a soldier was involved in commission of the crime. The bod ies of the dead men are said to have been literally hacked to pieces. List of Dead The dead: C. Fuller Winters, vice president of the National Reserve Bank of Kansas City. Mo.; John W. Jewell, of Springfield, Mo., editor of the. Camp Funston Trench and Camp, and asso ciate owner with his father; H. S. Jewell, of the Springfield Leader; Carl Ohleson, nineteen, son of Andrew Ohleson. contractor, of Kansas C!ty„ Mo.; Hill, clerk in the bank. Kearney Womall, cashier of the army bank, was seriously wounded. When the murders and robbery was discovered, Wornall was the only one of the five victims conscious, but he has not been able to give a lucid story of the occurrence. The robbery and murders occurred, it is believed, shortly after 7:30 last night. A half hour later a sentry heard groans, t THE ATLANTA SEMI-WEEKLY JOURNAL, ATLANTA, GA., TUESDAY, JANUARY 15, 1918. BOLSHEVIKI ENVOY : IS GIVEN INFORMAL STATUS BY BRITAIN jTrotzky Explains Why Confer ence With Ge.rmans Was Resumed Reports From Various War Fr.onts LONDON. Jan. 12.—The British gov ernment has decided to establish in formal relations with Maxim Litvinoff, who was appointed by the Bolshevik government as Russian ambassador at London, according to the Daily Mail. This step, adds the newspaper, has been taken with a view to obtaining useful information in regard to condi tions in Russia. The position is, the Mail says, that so long as Lenine and Trotzky retain the defacto power in great Russia it would be unwise to adopt an attitude designed to shut off Great Britain from receiving communications of possible value and from supplying information, if, for example. Lenine and Trotzky should eventually be inclined to give heed to the counsel tendered them by the allied governments through the re cent speeches of Mr. Lloyd George and President Wilson. Russia Proceeding With Separate Peace Parley NEW YORK, Jan. 12 (Summary of European Cables): Yielding to German insistence. Russia has withdrawn her demand for the transfer of the negotiations with the central powers to Stockholm, and is pro ceeding with separate peace discussions it Brest-Litovsk. t The Russian compliance on this point was on the ground that the quadruple alliance would thereby be deprived of “a pretext for breaking off peace negotia .ions on technical grounds,” according to Leon Trotzky. the Bolsheviki spokes man. The Russians did not wish to leave any possibility in the fight for peace unutilized, he said. Trotzky reiterated that peace was a cardinal principle with the Bolsheviki, and declared they would continue to press for it, despite the refusal of the entente powers to join in the negotia tions. While noting that the central powers had withdrawn their “no annexa tions and no indemnities” declaration of December 25 as a basis for peace be cause the entente power’s had not agreed to participate in the parleys, the Rus sians, Trotzky added, adhered to the principles of a democratic peace as they had already set them forth. After the Russian position had been thus voiced, the conferees apparently got down quickly to business. They left the question of separate represen tation for the Ukraine in the confer ence for decision at a plenary session after the delegates of the central powers had talked it over among themselves. They then arranged for the German, Austro-Hungarian and Russian delega tions to get together for private discus sions. These three sets of delegates speedily organized themselves into a committee for the discussion of politi cal and territorial questions and went into session for this purpose. The Ukrainian spokesman at the con ference gave notice that any peace set tlement that might be reached w'ould be binding upon the Ukraine only if ac cepted by ft, and declared the same principle applied to “the other Russian republics.” Midwinter quiet on the part of the in fantry continues to prevail on the va rious battle fronts. The artillery has been active in some sectors, notably north of Verdun, where the firing was reported heavy between Beaumont and Bezonvaux. The British carried out a raid east of Loos and captured a few prisoners. The British navy lost a war vessel Wednesday morning, when the destroyer Racoon ran on the rocks off the north Irish coast and sank with all hands. and investigated. Mr. Winters was still alive. He was removed to the camp hospital, where he died early to day. Immediately a guard was thrown about the camp and all military passes were revoked. No one could go about the camp without being challenged and taken to the guardhouse. That fate be fell several newspaper correspondents, it is reported, wtio attempted to obtain details. Early today it was reported that ar. army officer with a police dog which is being trained for war work had fol lowed a trail some distance to an in terurban car line. A man was said to have stated that he had seen four men, one carrying a heavy suit case, board a car at that point early last night. That apparently was the only clue. “Hard Luck” to Ride in Hearse CHICAGO, Jan. 11.—Patrolman Ahern commandeered a hearse to carry two negroes to jail. “It's bad luck, officer.” protested one. “I just knew some thing’s going to happen.

TO BE DECIDED IN FORTNIGHT, BELIEF Feeling in Washington Is That Decision Is Near Lansing Says We Are in Wart to the End WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.—The possi siche Zeitung (Berlin) says that the im perial German chancellor. Count von Hertling. will reply to President Wil son’s and Premier Lloyd George’s speeches before the main committee of the reichstag Tuesday. WASHINGTON? Jan. 13.—The possi bility of peace negotiations before spring, or the certainty of an indefi nite prolongation of the war will be definitely decided within the next fort night, according to the administration view as it was semi-officially given to day. The issue will be determined solely by the effect of the peace aim state ments upon liberal political leaders and upon the masses of the people in Ger many. To date the German press comment has all been most bitter. It is said that a little later the full nt ext of the message will reach the socialist and liberal political lead The president realizes the militarist grip on Germany is tighter now than ever before. In addition, the statement of allied war aims has made German junkers and militarists willing to go to any extreme. The allied program, if successful, means obliteration for them and for their theories. Their only pos sible chance lies in holding Germany in the war and making a last desperate military drive in the west—meanwhile hoping for another allied blunder. According to the best informed au thorities in the administration, the al lies now realize a bad blunder was made and a year practically lost by failure to reply last winter to the Ger man peace maneuvers. It is believed that had the allied terms been then stated and had they "soaked in,” that the state of mind of the German people would have been much different now. It is also recognized that full respon sibility for Russia’s defection is due to this failure to state the allied coun cil in Paris last summer which failed to sense or play up £0 the liberalism of Russia. All information reaching the govern ment is that internal conditions in Ger many are had. The food situation is unquestionably serious. The economic situation is more so. It is said, how ever, that the president has not as yet seen any indication that the increased seriousness of either of these conditions is great enough to offset the increased strength of the militarists. The strength has been made greater by recent Ger man military successes. It has been intensified by desperation of the junk ers and militarists, now awake to re alization that there can be no compro mise. To date there is no evidence coming out of Germany to indicate that the Lloyd-George and Wilson assaults have added materially to the success of the allies’ political 'offensive. Unless evi dence is soon forthcoming, it is ex pected that this offensive will settle down to a siege to be continued coin cidentally with the military siege of Germany. The president is understood to be se riously concerned over the wave of un justified optimism which has swept across the country following the peace aims statements by Lloyd-George and himself. This optynism has at no time been entertained by those people clos est to the president. SANTIAGO, Chile, 13, —P ,esi * dent Wilson’s speech to congress has had a marked effect on public opinion :n regard to the war and has been reced ed very favorably by the press. The purposes for which the United States entered the war are understood as they have not been previously, and the news papers express aproval of the just mo tives revealed by Mr. Wilson s utter ances. ■ I All Farm Products Will Remain I I High For Years to Come I I Just think of it — I h Short cotton at 30c pound. | | Long cotton at 75c pound.

New York, N Y.—ln a recent discourse Dr. E. Sauer, u Boston physician wbo bas studied wide ly both in tills country and in great European medical institutions, said: “If you were to make an actual blood test on all people who are ill you wonld probably be greatly astonished at the exceedingly large number who laek Iron and who are 111 for no other reason than the lack of Iron. The moment iron is supplied a multitude of dangerous symptoms disappear. Without iron the blood at once loses the power to change food into living tissue and therefore nothing you eat does you any good: you don't get the strength out of it. Your food merely losses through your system like corn through a mill with the rollera so wide apart that the mill can't grind. As a result of this continu ous blood and nerve starvation, people become generally weakened, nervous and all run down and frequently develop all aorta of conditions. One la too thin; another is burdened with un healthy fat: some are so weak they can hardly walk; some think they have dyspepsia, kidney or liver trouble; some can’t sleep at night, ethers fire sleepy and tired all day: some fussy a.'d Irritable: some skinny and bloodless, bnt all lack physical power and endurance.
