GA., May 24.—A large and fashionable audience, consisting prin cipally of the relatives’ and friends of the deceased, saw the fate of G. Frank lin Tindall placed in the hands of a jury today. He is charged with the death of Charles Hal! Taylor, whom he shot and killed two months ago when he found Taylor embracing Mrs Tin dall's slater. The chief feature of the trial was the testimony of Miss Lula Carter, the young woman of humble station to whom Taylor would have been married in another day. She was a state's wit ness, and her experience on the stand w’as a grueling one. She declared that when Tindall returned home’ late at night and found her sitting on the steps in Taylor'-' arms he thought she was his wife, and only fired on Taylor after the latter had advanced toward him with arm outstretched. Seated ar the prosecutor’s table were Mr. and Mrs. < harles H. Hall, uncle and aunt of the deceased, and the dead man s parents, Mr. and Mrs Hugh N Taylor: his two brothers, sister and othe relatives Mrs. Taylor is a sister of Mrs. S. R. Jaques, a social leader of Macon, whose husband is one of the city’s leading financiers, and also a sister of Charles H. Hall and Dr. Tom Hall. plucky 'fflfflN FIGHTS BURGLAR Choked and Beaten. She Forces Him to Flee and Saves Hat for Clew. Mrs. J. R. Hallman, a widow living at 9 Gaskill street, was choked almost insensible early today in a heroic battle with a burglar in her room. With the assailant’s fingers closing tight about her throat, the plucky wom an. unable to scream for help, struck him repeatedly in the face with her fist and finally forced him to tree her. As Mrs. Hallman sank back on the floor, exhausted, the intruder leaped through a window and dashed away in the darkness. In his haste, he dropped his hat just outside of the window. Without tak ing time to pick It up, he fled on. leav ing this as the only eJew to his Identity. The discarded hat was found in the yard juet after daybreak and Mrs. Hallman turned It over to detectives. Detectives worked hard to follow up the hat clew, but so far have obtained no tangible information. The hat is of the soft black variety, it contains no initials. The burglar entered the Hallman home through the same window by which he made his escape. He was ransacking a dresset drawer when Mrs. Hallman suddenly awoke and discov ered his ’lark form a few feet from her bed. "It was a terrible fight." said Mis. Hallman today. "It seemed to me an age. I never want to go through an other such experience again. It makes me tremble now when I think of it." WILBUR WRIGHT IS IMPROVED;DOCTORS NOW SEE RECOVERY DAYTON. OHIO.

NEW YORK, May 24.—Charles W Morse, who was freed from the Federal prison at Atlanta by President Taft on the theory that he was dying, returned to Wall street todax. He looked over several offices and it is said that he will return to the ice and shipping busi nesses This, visit of the former financier to the scenes of his old battles is practical confirmation of the exclusive announce ment in The Atlanta Georgian several days since.: "Within the month you’ll see Charles W Morse promoting at least one new steamship combine to exploit the new Panama canal trade.” In Condition To Resume Battle. That is the statement made by one of the late Atlanta prisoner’s closest friends in New York today, and ft is confirmed in substance by several others, despite Morse s personal state ment that he would never return to the career in finance that doomed him to the Southern Federal prison. Al) these friends have talked with Morse and his wife since their recent return from Europe upon the Olympic The one quoted adds that Morse is in physical condition now to resume th'? battle which won him so many millions and so much notoriety before his con viction. "Assuredly Mr. Morse would deny that he would re-enter Wall street." he added. "He's not so foolish as to be ignorant of the fact that an admission of that sort from his own lips would raise a storm in manv quarters—and ’ not the least among the lay public." Old Troubles Pursue Hiin. Morse is in the limelight just now That Is brought home by -the fact that subpena clerks are already on his trail with summonses in several suits hark ing back to the days before Atlanta. In some of these suits he is wanted as a witness. In one. Warren McCon ihe. a lawyer of No. 42 Wall street, threatens by a writ of attachment, to force Morse to submit to examination in a suit for SIOO,OOO brought by Ab-. J Culver against Peter McCarthy, for merly an officer of Morse's old Hudson Navigation Company. Morse, regaining his health, motors and walks every day, but he takes this exercise in the deepest seclusion He has been lying low while the wind of notoriety blew about him. He doesn't intend to get much into the open where the process men can reach him. and tush him into court to tell old tales of his former ventures that would fix him nt the public eye foi months and might even bring about a reerudesence of the old scandals--x« hieh are by no means yet forgotten. Very quietly he is already repienish- . ing his fortune by "fliers" which he know s so well when to take.
