Aug. 2.—A negro entered the home of George Bodi/ord, a re spectable white farmer of Grad'* County, living about six miles from Cairo, and with an ax brained him, hia wife and five children late last night. Some of the children have revived, but the father and mother are still unconscious and the chances for Chief Beavers then left the stand and Policeman Bas?» Rosser was called. He did not answer and Po liceman Robert Lassiter took the stand. Dorsey examined him. Q Were you with the policemen called to the National Pencil Factory on the night of April 26?—A. Yes. Q. Did you find this parasol?—A. Yes Q. Where?—A. At the bottom of tn> elevator Q. Anything else 0 A. A ball of wrapping twine beside the parasol. Ro«»ser cross-examined the witness Q. Did you see evidences of some thing having been dragged along the floor of the basement? A. Yes. Some distance from the elevator shaft. Shook Factory Door. Q Didn’t you testify before the Coroner's Jury that you found this evidence about the foot of the lad der?—A. I don’t remember that I did. Q. You were on the beat in front of the pencil factory, were you not? —A. Yes, until 12 o’clock at night. Q You tried the back door of the factory about 10 o'clock?—A. Yes. 1 shook it but didn't try to open it. Q Was It open or closed?—A. It was closed. Dorsey took the witness on redirec t examination. Q. Do you know whether the eleva tor comes down flHt on the ground?— A. No. Q. How did you go dow'n into the basement?—A. By a stepladder. Lassiter was excused. Sergeant L. S. Dobbs, of the police force, was then called, but failed to answer. Judge Roan then adjourned court until 9 o’clock Monday morning. As the case stood Saturday morn ing. these are the strong links in the State's case: Mary Phagan left her home at 11:46, according to her mother, after having eaten some cabbage. The girl arrived at the factory be tween 12:05 and 12:10, according to Frank’s own statement before the Coroner's Jury. Monteen Stover^ looked into Frank’s office between 12:05 and 12:10 and says he was not there. Dr. H. F. Harris, Secretary of the State Board «»f Health, testifies that the condition of the cabbage taken from the girl s stomach shows con clusively that she died within about half an hour after it was eaten. This would make the time of death about 12:10—a few minutes before or after. Claims Negro Is Eliminated. Mrs. Arthur White testifies that when she left the factory at about 1 o’clock a negro, presumably Conley was sitting on a box on the first floor. This, according to the State, elimi nates the negro as the slayer, because, according to its expert evidence, the girl must have been killed some time before that. The defense’s attack on ail this tes timony and reasoning was expected to be spirited and bitter, and until It has been made it is impossible to de termine how much ^ eight testimony like Dr. Harris’ purporting to fix \l- most to the minute Jhe time it tak^s to digest cabbage will have with the Jury.

A.K.HAWKES CO KODAK DEPT. 14 WHITEHALL rion Couhty, whose amendment pro viding tax discoverers to work with the county boards provided by the Sheppard bill, was defeated, served notice that he will make a motion 10 reconsider. An amendment by Mr. Nunnally of Floyd, which makes the State Comp troller General a sort of balance wheel between the taxpayer and the county boards, also is likely fo get a new trial. State Board Men Favor Move. It is understood the members of the House who favor the State board idea will support Mr. McMlchael in his attempt to get a reconsideration of the hill, and prospects are consid ered good for the success of the move ment. it was the State board advo cates who passed the bill Friday. More of Mr. Sheppard's followers voted against his bill than voted for it, anrl without the support of the State board advocates, who acted on the basis that half a loaf was better than no bread, the bill would have been lost. The Insurrection among the Shep pard forces was led by Messrs. Wim berly of Bibb, Wohlwender of Mus cogee and McMlchael of Marion, and was started after Mr. Sheppard got through two amendments to his own bill, which Mr. Wimberly declared takes away all powers from the coun ty boards. Mr. Wohlwender voted against the Sheppard bill and charged Mr. Shep pard with double dealing. He said the situation was this- Failed to Give Signal. The State board advocates agreed to favor the Sheppard bill as amend ed by Mr. Sheppard in the hope that It could be amended by the Senate to provide adequate tax revision. The members led by Mr. Wohlwender. Mr. Nunnally and Mr. McMlchael agreed to support the bill on Its final pas sage if the amendments offered by N.innally and McMlchael were adopt ed. Mr. Sheppard, th claim, agre»1, and when they came to a vote, he was to hold up his left hand as a signal, and the amendment* were to go through. When the amendments were offered, however, Mr. Sheppard gazed steadily out of the window— and the amendments were voted down. Then Mr. Wimberly and Mr. Wohl wender led a fight against the adop tion of the substitute, but lost. On the passage of the bill by sub stitute Mr. Wimberly and Mr. Wohl wender continued their fight, but th^ State board people, realizing the Sheppard bill was probably their only chance for any kind of tax revisi .n measure in the House, rallied to its support. Dr. Stovall, of Elbert County, whi practically destroyed the original Lipscomb bill with his amendments, and who has advocated the Sheppa^ bm heretofore, lined up with oppo nents of all tax revision Friday, vot ing against the Sheppard bill. World's Best Athlete Loses Race to Cupid LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2.—Miss Gall Jobson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. A.

MICH., Aug. 2—Quiet was so firmly settled In the Calumet mining region to-day that it was be lieved troops wmuld be withdrawn next week. The troops are planning to serenade General Abernathy and hold a big parade Sunday. The strikers prepared for a peace ful demonstration in all the large dties in the three counties where 18.- 000 men are on strike. Parades of women and children will be the fea tures. their recovery are very slight. The details of the crime are meager. The only clew as to the guilty party is from one of the little girls, who has revived sufficiently to make a statement. She says that she was awakened by the negro coming into the house. As she screamed he hit her in the head with the ax and then struck her father, mother and some of the smaller children. Girl Gives Alarm. One girl, about 12 years old, was struck in the head end knocked down, but as she fell she grabbed the negro around the legs and threw him. This frightened the negro and he ran. leav ing his ax in the house. The girl gave the alarm and several neighbors came to the house. The Sheriff and a posse, with three physicians, went to the scene before daylight this morning. They report it is likely that most of thorn will re cover, with the possible exception of the man and wife. The Sheriff ar rested a negro said to have been with one who did the work. He remained in the yard to wat. while the other entered the house. Ax and Shoes Identified. The ax and a pair of shoes, left In the yard, were Identified to-day by the wife of the suspected negro. She claimed that he had not been home since yesterday afternoon, when the two negroes left together. One of Bodiford’s daughters says that this negro and her father had some words a few days ago about a watermelon patch. This is the only motlvn that can be given for the crime. The Sheriff and a posse are in search of the negro, and they hope to apprehend him to-day. Sentiment against the negro is very strong, but no threats of lynching are being made, and if caught, there will likely be no trouble. Committee Favors Board for W. and A. The Senate Committee on »he West ern and Atlantic Railroad has re ported favorably on Senator Sweat’s resolution providing for the appoint ment of a commission to investigate the proposed extension or re-leasing of the road.
