GRANO JURY OPENS
BROKERAGE PROBE
AS ECHOW
After an all clay session daring
which it began an investigation of
alleged violation of the Georgia law
prohibiting transactions in futures
on margins, with scores of witnesses
on hand as a result of raids con
ducted last Saturday by officers act
ing under instructions from Solicitor
General John A. Boykin, it developed
thta injunction proceedings in the
federal court wer eavoided when So- <
Heitor Boykin agreed to postpone I.
investigation of four brokerage ■
houses maintaining branches here, ,
This postponement was agreed up- ,
on, it is said, so tha tit could be )
determined whether these cases j
should be handled in the federal ~
courts. u I,
No true bills were returned atj
Tuesday s session, the grand jurorsp
planning to resume the probe on' (
Wednesday. ; j
These four establishments had,
prepared injunction suits seeking )
to restrain the solicitor general, his , s
assistants, and the sheriff and liis j ,
assistants, from prosecuting or in
terfering with the operations of the
brokerage offices. It was planned <
to obtain the injunctions from Judge I
Samuel H. Sibley, who is holding j t
federal court in Athens this week, . f
but by agreement with Solicitor j
Boykin, the suits were withheld and j
the investigation and prosecution of )
the four concerns was deferred.
Names of Brokers
The brokerage houses coming un
der the agreement are Fenner &
Beane, of New York and New Or
leans; Livingston and company, of
New York; H. and B. Beers, of
New Orleans, and J. Clarke and ,
company, of New York. They are)
represented by the law firm of Lit- j
tie. Powell, Smith and Goldstein. ,
The other brokerage houses in- [
volved in the raids, including the j
Atlanta Commercial Exchange,
■which is a clearing house of stock, £
bond and commodity market infor
mation, were the subject of invest!- 1
gation Tuesday by the grand jury, i
The corridors of the courthouse ,
Were crowded with witnesses sub
poenaed ■by the raiding parties, and
records and ticker tapes confiscated
in the raids were on hand for the i
Inspection of the grand jurors. .
As the grand jurors began their }
Session they were presented with 1
b, petition from the Atlanta Com- )
xnercial exchange, urging that a j
thorough probe of the situation
be made without delay and that wide
publicity be given the result. The
exchange officials and members, who
signed the petition, declared the raid j
last Saturday caused great injury
and loss to bona fide, reputable busi
ness concerns and individuals en- ’
gaged in lawful business transac- i
tlons. Further loss and damage to ,
the business foundation of Atlanta (
will result unless the situation is j
cleared up immediately, it is stated. 5
High officials in several of the -
brokerage houses whose branch of- f
fices were raided Saturday, are j
here to participate in the probe, and
it was stated that attorneys for t
the telegraph companies furnishing j
wire service to the brokers and to <
the Atlanta Commercial exchange (
also will take a hand in the situa- i
tion. j 1
Brokers’ Contentions
The four brokerage houses in- | .
volved in the agreement with the ,
solicitor general contend through ;
their attorneys that so far as stocks <
and bonds are concerned, they are .
handled for present delivery only,
and are regulated under the rules of
the Georgia securities commission. ,
So far as future deliveries of cotton ,
and other commodities are concern
ed, it is asserted that these estab- ‘
lishments make no contracts of any
kind in this state, but handle the
transactions in New York, New Or- 1
leans or Chicago, under federal reg- !
ulation and inspection. They deny 1
that they have at any time engaged
In “bucketing” orders, a procedure ■
prohibited by the federal and state ’
laws. \
Intimating that financial damages
may be sought against those who
participated in the raids last Satur
day, the four brokerage houses de
clare that their loss as a result of
the raids already has run into many 1
thousands of dollars.
They declare they have no objec- | 1
tion to any steps that the solicitor | 1
general’s office and the police may j ■
take against bucket shops; that the ’
bucket shops, the existence of which j 1
they do not deny, are a. menace to i
the public and are particularly hurt- -
ful to the legitimate business which j ■'
they are carrying on. They state ) '
that it is easy to distinguish between '
a bucket shop and a legitimate
brokerage office, and that the solic
itor general and thfe police could
easily have confined their raids to ; 1
the bucket shops which are against j
the law and not have done the dam- 1
age they did to these legitimate j
brokerage offices.
They also assert that the searen
warrants which the officers claim to
have were issued without any basts
of law and were absolutely void on
their faces, and that all persons con
nected with the raid were guity of j
consipracy and trespass; that the )
subpoenas whic hthey served upon j
the customers of these offices were i
not issued by the clerk of the su
perior court and were in no wise
legal subpoenas and that the officers
did great wrong in taking charge of
these offices, blocking the doors and
refusing permission to customers to i
enter or to leave, as well as in the ;
seizure of the papers that they :
seized at these various places.

I Uruguayans Cheer Brazilian

by Pursuing Squadron—
Fate Not Yet Decided
MONTEVIDEO. Uruguay, Nov. 11.
(Py the Associated Press.) —The
fate of the mutineers who seized the
Brazilian battleship Sao Paulo at
Rio Janeiro a week ago and steamed
I out of the harbor while exchanging
'shots with the shore battery has not
been decided.
The Sao Paulo ended her voyage
yesterday when she entered the
roadstead under an Uruguayan pilot
who had been sent in response to
wireless messages from the battle
ship. The mutineers decided to end
their adventure when they found
both fuel and provisions nearly ex
hausted, with the pursuing Brazilian
squad only about 200 miles astern.
A 25-year old lieutenant, Herculino
Cascardo, was in command of the
craft.
The Uruguayan cabinet decided
that the mutineers should disembark
for internment, pending ultimate dis-

Armistice day to the people of
France.
The derelicts of the great struggle
made th eday their own as they
inarched in sad, quiet processions in
many of the cities of the republic to
present to the authorities their hum
ble petitions for better treatment.
After the brilliant ceremony over
the unknown soldier at the Ate de
Triomphe, in Paris, where President
Doumergue paid reverence to the
war dead and reviewed the picked
troops, these war-wounded and blind
veterans, in columns of 10,000,
walked down the Champ Elysees to
the Place de la Concorde, crossed the
river to the chamber of deputies and
stopped at the foreign office, where
a delegation presented their appeal
for higher pensions to Premier Her-
U< The veterans’ committee, com
posed of typical battle victims, ex
plained to premier Hernot the in
sufficiency of the pensions of many
classes of cripples. Some of the
men, the premier was told, were not
receiving enough even to buy food,
staged Saturday by squads of raid
ers operating under instructions ot
Solicitor Boykin. They were made
simultaneously, and while no arrests
were made, records were seized and
ticker tapes confiscated in several
places. Operations on the floor ot
the commercial exchange were halt
ed for about 30 minutes just as the
government cotton crop report was
announced.
Within a few hours after the
raid, officials of the Commercial Ex
change issued a statement protest
ing against the action of the so-
Heitor general and characterizing i
as “high handed” invasion of pet
sonal rights. Solicitor Boyktn re
joined that he had “ample evidence
to substantiate his charge fliat the
law was being violated, and that he
had acted only after numerous
complaints.
Robert A. Smythe, president of
the Commercial exchange, on lues
day pointed out that for two. j eats
the exchange has been working to
bring several large cotton firms to
-\tlanta and have succeeded in bring
ing the following: Weatherford,
Crump & Co., of New Orleans,
Houston. Greenville and Charlotte;
Floyd Willis & Co., of Dallas, Tex.,
and other points: E. A. Cutts & t 0.,

Greenville, and the Newberger Cot

points.
Bucketing Forbidden
Mr. Smythe also quoted a by
law of the exchange which forbids
“bucketing” under penalty of for
feiture ot membership, as follows:
“Any member of the exchange in
terested in or associated in busi

I zilian legation was requested to take

The mutineers were lustily cheered
I by a crowd on the dock as they left
j the vessel, the officers to go to hotels
and the men to the military bar
racks. Later the captain of the port
boarded the Sao Paulo, accompanied
• by the Brazilian charge d’affaires,
t who reinstated the loyal officers to
> their commands, together with those
of the crew professing loyalty. The.
Brazilian pursuing fleet, headed by
1 the Sao Paulo's sister ship, the
: Minas Geraes, arrived today to take
charge of the truant battleship.
Some of the officers and crew of
the Minas Geraes boarded the Sao
' Paulo and the sister ships will re
‘ turn to Rio de Janeiro together. The
Brazilian minister of marine, Ad
i miral. Alencar, was aboard the
. Minas Geraes.
I It has been learned that the Minas
I Geraes sighted the Sao Paulo off
. the Uruguayan coast near Rocha on
Sunday, but refrained from engaging
the rebel craft as she was in Uru-
, guayan territorial waters.
The mutineer officers who landed
from the battleship declare they had
; intended to proceed to the aid of
the Rio Grande rebels, but that se
vere storms preyented them.

'AUOITORQUESTIGNS
LEGALITOSW
PAID TO DO. SOULE
Questions as to the legality of the
salary paid to Dr. Andrew M. Soule,
president of the Georgia State Col
lege of Agriculture, are raised in the
report of the state auditor, Samuel
J. Slate, on the financial status of
that institution, filed Tuesday in the
office of Governor Walker.
The report, which is rendered in
accordance with the statute direct
ing the auditing department to audp
the accounts of all state departments
and institutions, declares that the
accounts of the State College of Ag
riculture are in good shape, with ail
disbursements sustained by proper
vouchers.
With reference to Dr. Soule’s sal
ary, the report says:
"In examination cf the detailed
expenses of the Georgia State Col
lege of Agriculture, I desire to call
your attention to two items:
“Item One —Vouchers show that
Dr. A. M. Soule, president, has
drawn a salary of $5,000 a year out
of state maintenance fund and also
$3,000 a year from the rehabilitation
funds of the federal government,
making a total salary of SB,OOO a
year.
“I direct your attention to the acts
of 1921, page 11, subsection 2, para
graph D; and also to acts of 1923,
page 18, subsection 2, paragraph D.
I call your attention to both appro
priation acts, as our audit embraces
both 1923 and 1924. As I construe
these two appropriation acts, the
salary of the president of the State
College of Agriculture is limited to
$5,000 from all sources.
Suggests Conference
“I would suggest a conference with
the board of trustees so that this
item may be thoroughly explained,
and the legality of same ascertained,
and if said e css of salary is illegal
to make necessary plans by which
said excess may be returned to treas
urer.”
The appropriation acts of 1921 and
1923 are practically identical with
reference to the appropriation for
the State College of Agriculture, the
paragraph from 1923 being as fol
lows:
“For the support and maintenance*
of the State College of Agriculture,
$80,000; provided that not mare than
$5,000 of all moneys appropriated to
the State College of Agriculture shall
be used in payment of the salary of
the president himself, and provided
further, that in the event the said
president shall receive any salary or
fees from funds appropriated by the
federal government, then only such
moneys shall he used from the state
appropriation as will, added to the
federal fund, total $5,000.”
Buying of Autos Cited
The second item referred to by
Auditor Slate is as follows:
“Item 2—Your attention is called
to the purchase of two Cadillac au
tomobiles for ordinary service, one
being paid for out y>f state funds
and cne out of federal funds.
“Is it economical for state authori
ties to buy Cadillac cars for service
work? This question should be tak
en up with the board of trustees and
thoroughly discussed.
“It is apparent that most states,
under a budget system, would not
consider this purchase economical.
If an automobile of considerably
less cost would be more economical,
the purchase of this grade should
be discontinued.
“In compliance with the audit act,
I am required to report to you any
irregular or illegal expenditures of
money, as well as any extravagance.
In compliance with this law I sub
mit for your consideration the two
items above, and would say I am
also required to report any measures
taken to correct any practices of
described nature; so I should
be glad to be advised of any steps
your excellency may take and your
final conclusions as to these two
items.”

WADSWORTH BOOM
FDR LODGE'S POST
BEGUN BT FBIENDS
WASHINGTON, Nov. IL—Senator
James W. Wadsworth, of New York,
is now slated to be new Republican
leader of the senate.
A group of his friends let it be
known today that they had begun
work in his behalf and claimed suf
ficient strength to elect him to the
post made vacant by the death of
Henry Cabot Lodge.
Little opposition is expected with
in the ranks, although the White
House has not yet been fully con
sulted. It also is presumed Wads
worth will accept.
The senior senator from New
York, it now develops, was a lead
ing contender for Lodge’s position
when the present congress was or
ganized last December. His friends
thought at that time his debating
ability and his knowledge of Repub
lican practice in the senate might
make him more successful in lead
ership than a man of Lodge’s years.
Wadsworth has been secretary of
the Republican caucus, chairman of
the senate military affairs commit
tee and one of the mainsprings of
the Republican machine in the sen
ate for years. He is forty-seven
years old.

I CONFESSION STITESI
MIAMI, Fla., Nov. 11.—Mrs. Hugo]
i Hubsch, wife of a Cocoanut Grovel
j druggist and World war veteran, has I
i confessed, according to the sheriff’s ;
office, that she instigated the flog
gings of her husband by a masked
band on the evening of November 6.
Hubsch, whose body is seared
, with wounds received in the war,
was decoyed from his place of busi
ness, taken into the woods and so
! severely lashed with a strap that
he since has been in the hospital)
in a serious condition.
In her reported confession, Mrs.)
Hubsch is said to have named mem-i
bers of the flogging party, and
deputies from the sheriff’s office
have been instructed to make ar
rests.
Mrs. Hubsch is reported to have
attempted suicide at the county jau
and is now in a state of mental col
lapse.
[ In her alleged confession, Mrs.
! Hubsch said:
“J thought they would only run
him out of town —I did not know
they really would beat him. I wish
God would kill me for what I did.”
’ Rewards amounting to $1,500 have
been offered lor the conviction of
) members of the flogging party. The
Ku Klux Klan and American Legion
have been active in carrying on an
investigation.
’ Six years ago today Hubsch, who
i claims kinship to Victor Hugo, the
, writer, lay in a hospital overseas,
his body riddled by German shrap
nel. One of many heroes of the
• famous “Fighting Sixty-Ninth” New
York, he had paid dearly for distin
guished mention he had won before
Chateau Thierry. Today Hubsch is
again on a bed of pain and his re
covery is in doubt.
Mrs. Hubsch falls to make clear
what prompted a desire to discipline
her husband, but declares there had
been talk of a, divorce because of
unhappy home life.
