JONESBORO, GA., Nov. 18.—Will i Edwards, Walton Henderson, Will Lee and Detnrnie Lee are today held In the Clayton county jail here under suspi cion of causing the death of John King, a farmer, about 50 years of age, whose charred body was found In the ruins of an out-house that burned late Satur day night near the school building at Orr's Grossing, a small station on the Central of Georgia railroad, three miles south of Jonesboro. The‘theory of offi cers is that King was killed in a row over a card game and his body’ was placed in the out-house,* which was fired to conceal the crime. Persons attracted by the fire discov ered a human body in the burning em bers. The body was almost consumed and was beyond recognition. But by a knife and brass lamp found with the body, it was identified as that of King, who lived about half a mile from the place and who had left his home a few hours before. Indications were that the building had been set on Are, and from the al most consumed state of the body, evi dently more fuel had been added to the fire than that of the frail out-house. Chief Rowan On Trail. Early yesterday morning Chief Zach Rowan, of the Fulton coTin ty police, accompanied by a squad of his men and bloodhounds, was on the scene. The dogs and men were soon on the trail. The tracks of men leading from the burned building were easily fol lowed, and resulted In the arrest of the foifr white men. * The two Lee boys are brothers and they and Edwards live near the scene of the fire. Henderson lives in another part of this county, but is said to have been on a visit to the Lee boys. Coroner P. H. Camp promptly held an inquest, probing the matter nearly all of yesterday afternoon, and ad journed to meet again this afternoon. The theory is that the dead man and the four under arrest, and possibly others, were engaged in gambling, a quarrel arose, King was killed and his body burned In the building. There arc indications that his squll was crushed. King leaves a family. 4 SAVANNAH COMPANIES PLAN INAUGURATION TRIP SAVANNAH, GA..

GREATEST SHAKE-UP IN ARMY’S HISTORY IS NOW UNDER WAY WASHINGTON, Nov. 18. Orders for the transfer of nearly 1,200 officers of the army have been prepared at the war department, and their issuance has be gun. This inaugurates the greatest shake-up ever known in the history of the United States military service, espe cially as all changes of posts of the offi cers concerned must have been accom plisheC by December 15. The general shifting is due to legisla tion enacted at the last session of con gress. A drastic provision was inserted in the army appropriation bill, requiring all officers who had not spent at least two years out of the last six on duty with troops to be with their regiments not later than December 15. After careful scrutiny of this provision, it was found that the law included as detached service such duties as military attaches, regimental staff officers, stu dents at service schools, instructors at West Point and the service schools and officers attending foreign military schools, officers on duty with militia in the va rious states and serving at educational institutions. With this interpretation of the iavy, 585 officers were found who had to be transferred in order that the secretary of war might comply with the law. To take their places 585 more had to be moved, making a total of 1,170 officers affected by the upheaval. The estimated cost of this quick shift Is from J 50.000 to SIOO,OOO for travel expense alone. In addition, It Is felt that the forced shifting will work harm, especially at the schools, where the plans for the year's work have been interfered with. The following transfers were ordered Saturday: Captain Robert ('. Williams from Seventh to Third cavalry. Captain Elmer Lindsley, Fourth to Seventh cavalry. Captain William Kelly, Jr., Eight eenth to Eighth cavalry. Captain George B. Kernley, Third to Seventh cavalry. First Lieutenant Ralph C. Caldwell, Seventh to Sixth cavalry. First Lieutenant James S.
