Augusta Attorney Denies Blease's
Right to Ask Extradition for
Alleged Kidnaping.
The eighth annual Holiness camp
meeting will start at Waycross August
14, and last ten days. It will be held
at the William Parker Memorial Camp,
under the auspices of the Waycross
Holiness Camp Meeting Association, of
which W. L. Hinson Is president and
Mrs. John W. Adams secretary.
A feature of the meeting will be the
“Former Texas Cowboys.” the Roberts
Brothers, of Pilot Point, Tex.
Declaring that Governor Blease, of
Soifth Carolina, was acting under no
legal right whatever in demanding his
extradition from Georgia, P. B. Zach-
ry, of Harlem, charged with kidnap
ing his own child in Columbia, S. C.,
called upon Governor Slaton Thurs
day morning to arrange for the hear
ing which will be held Monday morn
ing. Governor Slaton changed the
time of the hearing from Friday un
til Monday upon the request of Mr.
Zachry.
Mr. Zachry declared he would fight
the requisition to the last ditch. He
will be represented at the hearing by
Hamilton Phinizy and C. Henry
Cohen, of Augusta, and John T. West,
of Thomson. The requisition papers
of Governor Blease probably will be
the only testimony offered by the
plaintiffs.
Mr. Zachry told a graphic story of
the case Thursday morning. He had
been awarded the two children four
times, he declared, when Mrs. Zachry
left with them on the very day that
the Superior Court judge in Augusta
upheld thd decision of the ordinary
favorable to Zachry.
Sued In South Carolina.
It was then, he declared further,
that he took his automobile and has
tened to South Carolina, wne/re he
entered suit again for the children in
the Columbia court.
“I did not want to make out requi
sition papers for Mrs. Zachry,” de
clared Mr. Zachry, “because I do not
believe in fighting a woman in that
way. That is the reason I instituted
court proceedings in South Carolina

there Is disturbance in the Gulf, which
local weather experts claim may bring
rain in the next two days over the west
ern belt. This is causing hesitancy on
.he part of bulls to buy aggressively.
Every one seemed to await the noon de
tailed weather report to see how high
the temperatures may run and whether
or not the local experts are correct In
heir predictions. '1 he volume of trad
ing was small and the range was very
narrow throughout the early session.
The detailed weather record
showed temperatures ranging from 100
to 107 degrees and no rain. The tem
peratures were not so high in the east
ern belt and very little rain was shown.
These high temperatures are causing
uneasiness among the bear forces and
some short covering was in evidence
about noon. On the other hand, the
bull element hesitated when the ring.
Wall street and uptown crowd sold the
market off a few points. Should rain
materialize in the Western belt between
now and Sunday undoubtedly it will pro
mote sufficient selling to send the mar
ket back into last week's low level.
At the close the market was steady
with prices at a net advance of 5 to 7
points from the final quotations of Wed

CHICAGO, Aug. 7.—WThlle wheat and
corn both closed at lower levels to-day,
oats were better. .The changes in wheat
showed net losse of ViVfce . the latter
being the May option, which was under
considerable pressure. September corn
was up 14. but the more deferred
minths were %(g)%c lower. Oats had
gains of Vhtfi -\c.
The reports on corn were the worst on
th crop, especially those from Kansas
and Misouri, but this was overbal
anced by scattered rains in the belt and
the feeling that corn Is high enough.
There were cash sales of wheat of only
45.000 bushels at Chicago and export
sales were reported as dull.
The sharp break in corn during the
morning was the result of profit-taking
by one of the largest holders in the
trade, and who Is located at Fort
Worth, Texas.
Provisions closed rather unsettled aft
er a session of dullness.

'Hie Chicago Inter Ocean says: "Sen
timent in wheat is mostly bearish as
viewed bj local traders on the big re
ceipts and light export business. Shrewd
operators, however, only selling on
bulges, and say that caution should
be used so long as the bull movement
in corn continues. While a majority of
corn traders are bullish, there are a
number who are afraid to follow the
advance much further, because prices
ure unprecedentedly high for this season
for December and May. There is a good
deal of spreading between corn and

moderate.
“Provisions—There was fair realizing
on the advance yesterday, but the buy

bought October ribs. Cash trade was
fair with shipments of lard larger than
those of last year.”
