Painter carried $1,178,000—perhaps more—on his life, most of which was taken out in the past four months. His death was unexpected and mysterious. One more mys tery has been added to it by the disappearance of the dead man’s heart, stomach and kidneys, forwarded from this city to the Johns Hopkins University for analysis. Painter’s death, so the life insurance companies suspect, was produced by an overdose of chloral, which overwhelmed him when he toppled over from a ferryboat ostensibly on the way to his factory. Those most free to talk of his death seem inclined to one of two theories, suicide or insanity, and the suicide theorists seem to be in the majority. But there are many who scout at either of these opinions and steadfastly maintain that his death was purely accidental. Inquest Awaits Analysis In the meantime expert physicians and chemists in Baltimore are ready to analyze the brain, heart, liver, lungs, stomach, and other organs of the dead man to determine whether they contain evidence of poison or disclose any other condition to explain his death. Coroner C. I). Abbott, of Duval County, is holding in abeyance an inquest over the dead man. A jury has been impaneled, but has gone no further than to view Painter's body. An autopsy was performed by four physicians, two of whom were acting at the instance of the Painter family, one for the State and the fourth called in by the others. But the body was dissected before the Coroner had seen it and had an opportunity to subpena a jury. Painter met his death in the river at 9:30 o’clock in the morning. His body was recovered and in an undertaker’s morgue bv 1 o’clock that afternoon and the autopsy was performed. The removed organs were sealed in a conveyor in the express office and billed to Baltimore before night. The two physicians repre senting the family, Drs. P. C. Perry and John Cay Boyd, went to Baltimore at the same time to be present at the analysis. The shipment was made to Dr. Charles Simon, of Baltimore, hut he is in Nova Scotia, and his assistant, Dr. C. E. Haas, notified the Jacksonville authorities that he was instructed to turn the shipment over to Dr. Charles Glazer, of Johns Hopkins Hospital, who refused to undertake the analysis until Coroner Abbott had a representative present. The Coroner designated a Baltimore at torney to represent him. The beneficiaries named in the policies were either some mem- Continued on Page 2, Column 1. ENTRIES. AT LOUISVILLE.

We Know Darn Well We Can Atlantans are flouring conspicuous ly this year in fine tarpon fishing off the west coast of Florida. The St. Petersburg Independent, in a current issue, tells how H. W. Brown, of At lanta. who was fishing off Paas-a- Grllle with George Llzotte, landed four big ones In one day. Mr. Llzotte, the genial Frenchman who makes two stone-crabs grow where only one grew before, is well 'known to Atlantans. The only thing more plentiful than tarpon this year on the west coast are pelican. Mr. Brown has sent to Atlanta a copy of a limerick just composed by Llzotte. In which the latter thus epitomizes the noble fowl. The limerick follows: “There's a curious bird called the Pelican, Whose mouth holds more than his belican. He stuffs into his beak Enough grub for a week, Though I don't see how in helican.” Bryan Lands Good Job for Publisher Of the Commoner WASHINGTON, June 3.—President Wilson, after a conference with Sec retary of War Garrison, to-day de cided to appoint Richard L. Metcalf, of Nebraska, editor of William J. Bryan’s paper, The Commoner, to be Civil Governor of the Panama Ca nal Zone. Metcalf will succeed Maurice H. Thatcher, of Kentucky. It Is expected the nomination will go to the Senate within a short time. Bill Gives Atlanta U. S, Military Park WASHINGTON, June 3.—William Schley Howard to-day celebrated his assignment to the military committee of the house by introducing a bill to create a national military park of 100 acres in East Atlanta, around the spot where General James B. McPherson fell In the battle of Atlanta. The bill was referred to the military com mittee. After his death in the battlefield General McPherson was removed to the home of Congressman Howard's father, from which place he was ■bu/ffcd wiile niilitaij,- honors. F FELDER Attorney Boldly Declares That Police Are Protecting ‘Houses in Our Midst.’ Cattle and Wheat To Go on Free List WASHINGTON, June 3.—The free list of the Underwood tariff bill will be augmented by the addition of cat tle and wheat, according to a state ment o) Senator Simmons, of North Carolina, after a conference with President Wilson to-day. Senator Simmons to-day said the chief executive had signified his will ingness to have the duty removed from both. It is not expected that President Wilson will sanction any further changes in the measure. Atlantan Says U. S. Sailors Robbed Him NEW ORLEANS, June 3.—Losing his way in Audobon Park here, W. E. Shifiet, of Atlanta, approached four sailors. He asked the way to the Wcstwego ferry and as soon as he turned his hack he was beaten to the ground and robbed of $103, his watch and stickpin. Charging that the sailors wore caps on which was “U. S. S. Amphitrlte," Shifiet and a policeman had the gun boat captain line up the entire crew. He couldn’t Identify any as his assail ants. Clark Picks Oct. 1 as Adjournment Date WASHINGTON, June 3.—Speaker Clark's prediction that Congress will be In session until October 1 Is be lieved ;o forecast a long wrangle over currency reform and a record-break ing debate on the tariff in the Senate. While the Democratic caucus was adopting a resolution to limit the legislative program in the House, Speaker Clark observed that, with the work already cut out for it, Con gress ‘‘will be here until about Octo ber 1.” Congress has been in almost continuous session for five years'. Presbyterians Write Praise of Atlanta The executive committee of the Presbyterian Assemblies, of which J. K. Orr is chairman, has finished up its work and formally disbanded. The committee received letters from all parts of the country from Assem bly delegates, loud in their praise of Atlanta. After raying the expenses incurred by the General Assemblies, the com mittee found a good balance in the treasury. Accusations that Atlanta Is honey combed with vice and that the police and detective departments deliberate ly protect and encourage these con ditions were made before the Grand Jury of Fulton County by Colonel Thomas B. Felder and Carl Hutche son Wednesday morning. Both men declared they had con clusive proof to establish the truth of their charges, and that they had submitted sufficient evidence to the Grand Jury to indict every one of the 30 or more proprietors of disorderly houses whose names and addresses they had left with the members of the Grand Jury. Felder Boldly Charges Graft. Colonel Felder came out boldly and charged graft of the worst sort and he asserted that he had given the Grand Jury affidavits showing the al leged connections between the police department and the houses of disre pute sworn to by the keepers of the houses themselves, as well as by reputable citizens who were aware of the conditions. It was announced at the outset of the Grand Jury probe that the vice conditions of the city would be the only matter taken up at this time. Foreman Beck said that the Jury was following the charge delivered by Judge W. D. Ellis, who urged the Grand Jury, in view of the Mary Phagan tragedy, thoroughly to inves tigate the reported spread of vice in the city since the wiping <}ut of the restricted (district. Jury After the Real Truth. “We have resolved ourselves into a committee of the whole to follow the Instructions of Judge Ellis,” said Mr. Beck. "We propose to sift the mass of charges and counter-charges that have been made and get at the real truth, If it Is possible. We w’ont to know if vice is protected and if we find that it is. we propose to indict those Involved in the disgrace.” Besides Colonel Felder and Mr. Hutcheson, Mayor Woodward, who long has disagreed with Chief Bea vers’ vice policy, and C. C. Jones, owner of the Rex Saloon, were called before the Grand Jury. The Mayor and Mr. Hutcheson were before the jury about an hour each. The Mayor Is said to have given the Grand Jury a great amount of information In his possession, much of which has been published in connection with his con troversy with Chief Beavers. The Mayor was questioned closely as to his knowledge of existing vice Mayor Believes Informants. He told the Jurors, however, that practically all of his Information was hearsay, and that although he was confident In his own mind of its truth, he was without absolute proof in re spect to the greater part of It. An opportunity to answer the star tling accusations probably will be given Chief Beavers and Chief Lan- ford at the session Wednesday, which will sit at 10 o’clock In the forenoon. Both were present Tuesday, but there was not time to take their testimony. Detective John Black, G. C. Febru ary, secretary to Chief Lanford, and Harry Scott, Pinkerton detective, also were on hand to give testimony in the event they were called upon, conditions. He is said to have in formed the grand Jurors that his in formation was only hearsay. How ever, he gave out what he had heard in full. The Mayor also pointed out to the Jurymen possibilities for the existence of such practices The ex amination of Mr. Woodward contin ued for more than an hour. Colonel Felder was before the Grand Jury for ten minutes. The attorney was not subpenaed to appear at the hearing, but presented himself volun- iarily. He is said to have outlined Ms own position in reference to the brib ery charges and also the wholesale “7 — Continued on Page 6, Column 4. BASEBALL*™ SOUTHERN LEAGUE AT MEMPHIS— MOBILE 4 - . . .
