fouml a pistol bulb t. This not only
exploded the previously accepted
theory that the young woman had
been killed by a blow from some
heavy instrument which had crush
ed the skull, but at once gave rise
to the suspicion that it was a ease
ot suicide instead of murder. When
the lifeless body of Miss Hang was
fir<t discovered a pistol was found
by ii.hr M but the doctors and oth-
eru wLc «xamlncd the body had de
clared that t?io condition of the skull
indicated that i‘ had received n
crushing blow from some heavy in
strument in the hands of a strong
man. and that no such effect could
havo been produced by a pistol shot.
•Hut the finding of the bullet In
the head led to a more thorough ex
amination. and to i ho linal con
clusion that it was a case of sulfide
instead of murder, and within n
very short time a more conclusive
circumstantial case of suicide had
been made out than had been pre
viously evolved in support of the
first conclusion that it was a case
of murder.”
Atlanta, Oct. 17.—After a com
plete hearing the Georgia Uailroad
commission lias dismissed the recent
complaint of the Postal Telegraph
company against the Southern Hell
company in which the Postal charg
ed that the Southern Hell was dis
criminating against it by diverting
imsjness from the Postal to the Wes
tern Union
In the petition the Postal Com
pany charged that in many instances
when the public called Che Postal
on the telephone to send telegrams,
the calls were diverted from the
Postal to the Western Union by the
Telephone company. The comm's*
sion was asked to compel the Tele
phone company to adopt a code call-
word for each telegraph company
and discontinue the use of the code
word “Telegram.”
The Southern Hell Company filed
an answer asking for a complete in
vestigation, in which it denied the
charges of discrimination, and stal
ed that the code word, “Postal ’ was
used for the Postal Company an 1 the
code word “Western Uaion” for the
- i company, and were now mit-
lished in the telephone directories.
i !:<• Postal Company amended - ts
petition and asked that the *»do
words bo abolished and that a f um
ber be assigned each telegraph •*cm-
pany. The telephone company op
posed this plan, declaring that it
wo ’1 result in inconvenience to the
public.
At the hearing both sides present
ed witnesses and the commissi™
went into the matter thorougVy
After considering the evidence, the
commission was irnabbj to susi Cm
the charges of the Postal com,»*.r.y.
and the case was dismissed.
HATE A LIAR”
Say* a Federal Penitentiary Man
and for That Henson lie Refutes
Hawthorne** Testimony.
Atlanta, Oct. 17.—“I hate a liar,”
is the reason Thomas M. C. Dram
gives today for coming forward in
defense of Warden Moyer and the
Atlanta federal penitentiary against
the charges brought by Dr. W. J.
Morton atfd Julian Hawthorne.
Dr. Morton declared, among other
things, that the convicts were fed
on nine cents a day and not given
enough to eat. Pram says that Mor
ton was not only given plenty to
oat. but that he was put on a special
milk and egg diet at times when he
wanted it.
“Morton was thin and emaciated
when he entered the prison. When
he left, he was as fat as a pig,” Dram
says.
Brnm is the man who stayed in
prison 17 years for a mysterious
murder on hoard a ship. He has
declared without bitterness through
out the entire time that he was con
victed on false evidence.
“I was convicted on false state
ments, and that is why I hate n
lie so,” he declared, “and why I feel
j it my duty to come forward when
j a man like Moyer is attacked b\
! falsehoods.”
To many people In Atlanta todav
! the significant feature ft the affair
I is not so much the charges against
j the prison, as that Julian Hawthorne
j has become the center of columns
and pages of newspaper talk since
I he got out of prison less than for-
j ty-elght hours ago. Hawthorne, as
j is generally known. Is to become a
: member f the writing staff for the
' IIearst newspapers.
