Atlanta National Bank The Oldest National Rank in the Cotton States J itiL ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS FRIDAY. JULY 12. IMI2, SENATE FHOBE OF FIGHT IS DELAYED Committee Not Certain It Has Jurisdiction to Conduct Still- Byrd-Lyon Hearing, The senate committee which arraigned Luther H Still. Charles P Byrd and Thomas Lyon this afternoon on a charge of fighting in the senate chamber last Wednesday, adjourned the hearing at 1:30 o’clock until next Monday afternoon, and in the meantime will decide whether it has jurisdiction in the case. Still, president of ths Typographical union, appeared in the senate chamber with both eyes almost concealed under swollen flesh, caused by the blows given him by Lyon. He was represented by Frank Hughes, attorney, who maintained that the senate had no actual jurisdiction in the matter, as the fight, had Occurred after both senate and committee had ad journed; that there was no contempt of that august body shown, and it was a matter for the state courts to decide. Byrd and Lt on were represented by Robert B. Blackburn, who insisted that the senate committee hear the case, as serting that the mere fact that one of the defendants appeared before the com mittee with brass knucks in his posses sion constituted a breach of decorum and courtesy toward the s£pate. One Witness Testifies. The committee. President John M. Sla ton presiding, ruled that it would take the question of its jurisdiction under ad visement and reopen the hearing Monday, upon the adjournment of the senate. It consented to hear one witness, W O. Foote, who could not. be, present next week. Foote said that Byrd had approached Still and warned him not to make "any more personal remarks." with the threat to "knock his head off." He had heard no profane or obscene remarks. He tes tified that Still had the brass knucks. which he dropped on the floor, and that Lyon had picked them up and attacked Still The hearing was the outgrow’th of an altercation among the three which arose from Still's charges that the Byrd com pany had robbed the state in its print ing contracts. It occurred on the floor of the senate chamber, just after the ad journment of the committee had had con sidered a new state printing bill. MOONSHINE KING OF NORTH GEORGIA MIXES LAST MASH CUMMING, GA.. July 12.—-Old La fayette Larmon, the moonshine king of the north Georgia mountains, has mixed his last mash. Friends found his body in Daves creek, six miles from Cum ming. drowned in his wagon. A dozen jugs of mountain dew in the wagon bed told the story of old Lafe's last running of the revenue blockade. He had been caught, by the flood on the way from his still to market. Lase Larmon was 75 years old, but his blue eyes, were just as keen as when he followed the flag in the 60's, and in his hands the six-foot squirrel rifle held just as steady a bead. The revenue officers were never anxious to trail the old man into his' den, and though his stills had been broken up again and again old Lase retained his freedom and kept on turning corn into white liquor. He had the stern re ligion of tlie Georgia mountaineer, de scendents of the Roundheads, and was a regular attendant at the church his father had helped to build. But he maintained the right of a free-born citizen to use his own corn for meal or whisky as he saw fit, and lie refused to admit that the government had any right to interfere. He had been "moonshining" for 5o years. Daves creek was swollen by the heavy rains and old Lase must have .misjudged the depth at the ford, for he drove his mule into water six feet deep. 1 'aught in the. harness, the. mule was swept down stream and drowned, and the old man evidently made no at tempt to leave the wagon and swim out. Friends found him and the mule dead together, washed against the.bank, with jugs of moonshine, tightly corked with corncobs, floating by the old man's side. AMERICUS POWER CO. REQUESTS CONTINUED MONOPOLY OF TRADE R L Maynard and A M Walker, at torneys for the Americus Gas and Elec tric Company, blandly requested the state railroad commission today to give, their company the lighting and power monopoly in Americus. The unusual request, which has been taken under advisement by the commis sion but doubtless will be denied, was made when the lawyers appeared to pro test against a petition of the Americus Power Company asking the commission for approval of a $50,000 stock Issue The Americus Power Company is a re cently formed organization growing out of the fight between the municipal authori ties of Americus and the Americus Gas and Electric Company over the capitaliza tion of the latter. Tlie attorneys told the commission that there was no necessity for such a plant -as the gas-electric company was sup plying the needs of the people of Amer icus and vicinity without, trouble and opposh inn FINCHER FAMILY TO RUN FOUR PHONE EXCHANGES THOMASTON.

July 12.—Wheat was with out much change. September ruling a. shade better, while December was a small fraction lower at the opening of the mar ket this morning. Corn was fractionally better on smaller offerings in the pit, and a decrease in the Argentine visible, although shipments from there were more liberal. Oats were steady, a shade lower. Provisions were without change. Wheat was strong throughout today's session, final prices showing gains of l%c all around. Reports of the rust in the Northwest and disappointment in the Southwest were the strengthening factors Corn closed with prices ranging from unchanged to %c better.
