Augusta, Ga., Oct. , 6—Judge
Henry C. Hammond yesterday modi,
fled his restraining order in Waynes-
boro against the Columbia Sentinel,
after showing was made to him by
John T. West and Son of Thomson
in behalf of Mrs. Louis Lytle and
the estate of the late Senator Wat
son.
Under the court order as it stands,
ihe publication of the paper is to be
continued, if those at present in
charge of it so desire. There is a
sum of money in the bank belonging
to the paper, approximately |3,000.
fudge Hammond orders that one-
third of this money be held in bank
until Oct. 21, at which time E. L.
Miller, the plaintiff in the case, can,
if he deems fit, make further show
ing before Judge Hammond.
Judge Hammond yesterday also
discharged the receiver, he having, in
the Waynesboro order, named B. J.
Stephens receiver for the paper, Mr.
Stephens was named by Senator
Watson as executor of his estate.
Miller sets it up that he is one
of three partners owning the Colum
bia Sentinel. Mrs. Lytle and the
Watson estate deny this, setting it
up that they as equal partney* own
the paper and they assert that Miller
has had no property interest in the
paper since 1019. When the restrain
ing order issued at Waynesboro was
served on the defendants in the
action they asked the privilege of
making a showing, and it was on this
showing, made yesterday, that the
Waynesboro order was modified.
Miller will have opportunity to
amplify his showing at the Oct. 21
hearing and it is understood that he
asserts that he can and will be able
to submit further proof than he has
so far submitted to austain his
position. It is understood the
Sentinel will appear to-day.

SENATOR HARRIS OF GE0RQIA
RETURNS TO UNITED STATES
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 6—The steam
er Roosevelt, on which U. S. Senator
William J. Harris of Georgia return,
ed to the United States docked today
at New York and the senator went
immediately to Washington, accord,
ing to advices received here.
Senator Harris has been attending
,the Interparliamentary Union con
ference at Vienna, Anatria, as pne
of the delegates from the United
States. He came by the Argome
battle field, in France, to attend the
unveiling of s monument to the
memory of hia nephew Captain
Charles D. Harris, erected on the
spot where he was killed in the
World War. He was the son of
Major General Peter C. Harris,
recently returned after serving as
adjutant general ot tho army.

himself. He pitched five Innings in
Pittsburg last Monday and did not al
low the Pirates a hit. Ho was given
hla second chance yesterday. In one
inning he was scored upon, two triples
a single and a pass making three
possible, but tbe other five Innings
that he worked were acoreless,
though not hitleaa. Any time there
were men on bases, Holloway worked
like a veteran.
Cobb, discussing hid pitching against
Pittsburg on Monday, said that he
never saw'a recruit with as much
stuff ae Holloway showed ill that
game. Russoll, of the Pittsburg out.
field, made the same remark here on
Tuesday, when the Plruetcs played on
Navln Field.
Holloway is a remarkable young
man, all things considered. He has
been in organized baseball loss than
season. He has a good curve bull
and a great amount of speed. He Is
rich In raw material, but on top ot
that Holloway appears to know how to
pitch; he seems to know what to do
with his stuff. He lacks many of the
glaring faults that raw pitchers have
He Is not shaken by conditions and
does not lose his poise. He retain
#ven equilibrium and there are a great
many veteran pitchers that have
learned to do that; they hecom
turbed by situations.
Tn what little work he has done for
Detroit Holloway has been Impressive.
When he reported to Cobh at Wash
ington, on the last eastern trip, he
told him that he did not care to linger
In the minor leagues any longer.
"Why not?" asked Cobb.
"Because yeu don’t learn anything
down there and what's the use of west-
Ing your time?" was Holloway’s an
swer.
Holloway Is certain to be a member
of the Detroit pitching staff next
spring and ( from all appearances, that
staff will be tbe best any Detroit team
ever carried.
Detroiters were anxious tn see Rog
ers Hornsby in action. Hornsby is the
leading batsman of the National
League, the leading home run hitter
of baseball and said to be the best
keystone aacker in the National.
In four times at bat Hornsby made
one scratch single. • He drove the ball
off Hollawy's glove and streaked to
first before it could be recovered and
thrown to Blue. The other two times
he faced Holloway he filed out. He
hatted once against Johnston and
struck out.
Hornsby made a good play on Blue's
grounder In the third, but be made
several other playi that were not
good. Judging him on his work of
yesterday Hornaby would not be rated
as a good fielder, but one game does
not make a season.
Rickey did not use his regular
pitchers, but worked recruits In turn.
The Tygeri got tlx hits and three
runt off Sell, who worked the first
three Innings; ilx hits and five runs
off Knight, who pitched tbe next three
and three bits and two runs off Wig-
flntton, who burled tbe last two.
Tbe Cardinals play four more game*
with Chicago and they have a chance
ot Onlahlng second, third, fourth or

Harry Allen, Macon youngster, was
giveu the decision over David Powell,
of Atlanta, in the six rounds.Allen'
victory was uu unpopolur one with the
funs who voted convincingly I

one for a draw. Tho decision was
hissed.
Strlbllng and Herring entered Ihe
fight seriously, each apparently seek
ing a knockout. Terrible drives were
exchanged during the first and sec-

Albany, Ga„ Oct. 6.*-How big do
loggerhead turtles grow in the fresh
water streams of South Georgia Tho
question has been debated long and
earnestly, and there has been wide
difference ot opinion among fisher
men and others.
But that these formldahl - reptiles
grow to weigh as much as 75 pounds
has been discovered by G. B. Ferguson
and he says the turtle in South Geor
gia streams exteed fifty pounds ln
weight.
Mr. Ferguson was fishing In Flint
river near Oakfleld twenty miles north
of Alhnny. He had baited a hole for
carp, which grew to a large size In Ihe
Flint and was using bread for halt.
When he hooked the turtle. It took him
an hour to wear the reptile down and
get it to the bank. He was using a
heavy cane rod and a 75-potind test
line, und was able to land tho turtle
because It had been hooked In the cor
ner of the mouth. A loggerhead will
snap a heavy hook with Its powerful
beak unless hooked In. the corner
of the mouth.
