ALL DAY SEARCH
Negro Is Captured by One
Posse and Delivered to
Deputy Sheriff
— e ®
A young Negro man, Nemmie
“Foots” Gaines, suspected of sge
verely beating Mrs. C. G. Gools
by, T4-yearold blind invalid and
her daughter, Nettie, at their home
in Oglethorpe county yesterday
was confined in Fulton Tower to
day.
Gaines was carried to Atlanta
this morning by the Sheriff of
Barrow county, after a crowd had
gathered last night intent, it is
believed, on storming the jail for
the prisoner.
.The man was caught by a son‘
of John Henry Glenn in Oglethorpe |
county late yesterday, after he had
been hunted all day by a posse of
about five hundred men from
Clarke, Madison and Oglethorpe
county. Deputy Sheriff John Paul,[
to whom Gaines was delivered by
his captor, brought the Negro by]
Athens where he was told that it
would be safer to carry him to
another jail at a greater distance
than Athens from the scene of the
crime.
Seriously Injured
Meanwhile, today, Mrs. Goolsby
and her daughter were still in a
«emi-consecious condition at the
General Hospital. Hospital attaches
said early this afternoon the
daughter is not expected to live
but that the mother has a chance
to recover.
At Danielsvilie, Judge B. T.
Moseley s=aid that a special term
of Oglethorpe Superior court to in
diét and try the prisoner will de
pend on whether Mrs. Goolshy and
her daughter recover from their
injuries. If their injuries prove
fatal it is possible that the grand
jury will be called at once and the
man tried at a special term of
court, inasmuch as the regular
‘term” of * court does not begin until
late in September.
It is said that the crowd which
all day searched the swamps of the
Broad river in the Millstone creek
district in Oglethorpe for the Ne
gro was disappointed when Dep
uty Sheriff Paul “spirited” the
prisoner away. Two members of
the posse said here today that the
Deputy Sheriff told the Negro’s
captor that the prisoner would be
carried back to the scene of the
erime and delivered to the crowd
after being identified. It was about
an hour before news of the Negro's
capture reached the main body of
the posse and by that time Sheriff

" ANDELL DEFENSE
WITNESSES CALLED
Both Testify That Rela
tions Between Man and
Wife Were Not Strained
BY RANDOLPH FORT
(Associated Press Staff Writer)
ELLIJAY, Ga. — (# — Two
witnesses called in defense of R.
W. Randell of Fort Myers, Fla.,
who is on trial here on a charge
of slaying his wife, testified yes
terday that the relations of the
couple were affectionate and’ cor
aial,
The defense witnesses were C. B.
Bryant, former policeman of Fort
Myers, and J. Bowers Campbell of
Washington, one time law partner
of Randell in Fort Myers.
Bryant said he had known the
Randells for many years and that
they were “a most affectionate
couple.” Campbell said the rela
tions of the Randells were “always
cordial.”
The state contends Mrs. Randell,
whose body was found beside the
wreck of her husband’s automobile,
was slain and an attempt made to
make the death appear a result of
an accident.
Jonas Key, a farmer whom the
state also called as its first wit
ness, was the first person called
to the stand by the defense. He
described the scene of the accident
and told of finding several sharp
edged rocks in a creek bed where
the car was wrecked,
Previously, just before the state
concluded its case, Dr.E. W.Wat
kins of Ellijay told the court he
believed Mrs. Randell died of
“strangulation or asphyxiation” and

MUIRFIELD, Scotland — (#) —
Battling a stiff head wind that at

Cotton, the defending titleholder,
yielded the lead today in the sec
ond of the 72-hole British Open
golf championship to Charles A.
Whitcombe, 40-year-old veteran
British Ryder Cup team player.
Among the early starters and
escaping the wind that blew up
after noon, YWhitcombe cocvered the
Muirfield layout in 68 —four under
par—for a 36-hole aggregate of
139 while Cotion went cuttin 35
and then faltered badly on the
greens, taking an incoming 39 for
a 74 and a total of 142—good for
a tie for second place with Alf
Padgham, a British professional.
Six Americans apparently made
the grade for the final stretch
drive. The 36-hole final will be
played tomorrow. :
‘While all appeared Treasonably
safe of escaping the axe when the
field is cut to the sixty low scorers
and ties tonight for the windup to
morrow, Joe Ezar of Waco, Texas,
and Frank Ball, formerly from At
lanta, Ga., appeared to be close to
the borderline with aggregates of
151. Both had first rounds of 76
and shot 75s today.
The second day of play made the
title hopes of the veteran MacDon

less bright. After a glittering first
reund of 69, Smith surfered a sharp
form reversal and took a second
round 77 a total of 146, He was

LONDON — (® — Jean Boro

England club officials today that
he would not permit his dueling
engagement in Paris to interfere
with his scheduled appearances in
the Wimbledon championships.
“One must fight as a point of

Friends of Borotra, who accept

are being considered by the two
men's seconds whereby both the
principles would shoot in the air
when they meet.
These friends said the situation
had reached a. point where the
duel could not be avoided and that,
in the eyes of fifty million French

Earlier, Borotra asserted: “Mat

Slated to Get Under
Way in Ten Days
WASHINGTON — (#) — Long
hearings and debate on President
Roosevelt's tax-the-wealth pro
gram were planned today by Demo
cratic leaders, forestalling final
action possibly until late in August.
'This was the latest development
under the proposal to levy inheri
tance taxes and boost taXes on
large incomes. Previously the im
pression had existed that final
votes would be sought by Saturday
night. President Roosevelt yester
day disavowed any intention of
seeking such speed.
The wealth taxes will not be at
tached to the $500,000,000 ‘“nuis
ance” tax resolution now before
the house for concurrence in sen
ate amendments. Instead, leaders
said, they will bewritten into a
separate measure and put through
in regular order. The house ways
and means committee will start
hearings early next week, i
Ship Subsidy Bill ‘
Debate on a motion to take up
the ship subsidy bill continued in
the sepate today. On the other side
of the capitol, the house neared a
vote on this legislation and then
was ready to take up the disputed
public utility holding company le
gislation.
Opponents of the new ship sub
sidies clashed with administration
leaders over whether there should
he a roll call vote on final passage.
The critics of the bill, under which
the government would pay ship
owners the difference between for
eign and domestic operating and
construction costs, believed that a
roll call would line up more votes
on their side than a mere voice
vote,
Bitter Fight
Observers looked for one of the
hitterest fights of the session over

Talmadge |ls Accused of
“Cheap Politics” by
Representative
WASHINGTON — #) — Geor
gia’s $19,000,000 share of the fed-
eral road funds remained impound~
ed in the treasury vaults here to-
day as a battle of words was wag
ed over Secretary Wallace’s edict
that it will not be released until
the highway engineering personnel
in that state is changed. o
Wallace contends are organiza
tion is needed in the interests of
efficiency. ‘ e
His announcement brought a
barrage of criticism from Georgid
officials and Governor Eugene Tal
madge declared Wallace and Rep
resentative Vinson, Democrat, Ga.,
had “probably traded to defraud
the farmers out of billions of dol
lars” exchanging AAA - legislation
for roads and bridges.
Talmadge Accused e
Vinson promptly came forward
with an accusation that Talmadge
was playing “cheap polities,” des
eribing Wallace's “‘efficiency” let
ter to the state highway depart:
ment in Georgia as “an indictment
of the way Governor Talmadge has
been running the ni hway depart
ment.
Representative Tarver, Demo
crat, Georgia, led a delegation of
several Georgia house members to
see Whillace only to pe told it all
depended on the highway board’s
reply to the efficiency ultimatum.
The state highway departments
reply was that it *refuses to be
starved into submission.” "
Ball’s Ferry Job W
The state highway officials say
the bone of' contention was t e
refusal of the department to initiate
Ball's Ferry bridge in Congressma
Vinson's district in one of the pro
ects. 3
Tarver, in a formal statement,
made this charge and said that he
gathered from remarks by Thomas
H. MacDonald, chief of the bureau
of roads under the department of
agriculture, who attended the Wal
lace conference that “he would *
probably not be satisfied unless
the entire state highway organgfi? :
tfon In Georgia is made over to .
notion.” ’ e
The representative quoted ' the
bureau chief as saying “we " are.
are going to build the Balls Ferry
bridge and will require it to be
included in future programs.” =

Tarver served notice the matter.
