Fight With Ray Disabled Reid.
A couple of well-directed right
band smashes on the nose, delivered
with the full force of the 220 pounds
pf bone and muscle that Edward Ray.
the English golfer, supports, was to
day attributed as the cause of th*j
romparatively poor showing of Wil
fred E. Reid, another Englishman, in
the final rounds of yesterday’® play.
Ray and Reid engaged in an alter
cation at the Copley Square Hotel
Thursday night, and Reid fared sec
ond beat. Not only was his nos?
damaged as the result of Ray’s blows,
but the more diminutive Retd was
disposed of as a championship poMi
bllity. The shock to his nervous sys
tem. golfers say. made him unable to
do himself justice in the final day’s
play.

Executive Says He Desires to Study New Evi
dence Before Ruling.
Governor Slaton will announce his
decision In the ca«e of Dr. W. J Mc-
Naughton. for whom a pardon is
sought, some time next week. This
assurance was given by him at noon
Saturday, following a two-hour con
ference with the attorneys on both
sides Emm all the Indications the
chances of the convicted physician
for n full panion ai*e slender.
The conference followed a consul
tation between the attorneys regard
ing certain parts of the testimony
which the Governor requested them
to consider and. if TM.ssible, agree up
on It, so that it could be embodied In
written form.
The attorneys met early* Saturday
morning, but reported to the Govern
or that they could not agree. Govern
or Slaton then reviewed the particu
lar evidence to them as he under
stood It, and hls construction of it
proved acceptable to both sides.
“I will announce my decision in the
McNaughton case some time next
week,” said the Governor to a group
of reporters. “I will review the writ
ten testimony again and go Into the
new evidence which was submitted to
me Friday I will make a written
statement of my action in the mat
ter."
A large number of visitors called at
the Capitol Saturday morning, in the
expectation that the McNaughton
hearing would be continued to-day.
Many of the visitors were from Em
anuel County and had not heard of
the conclusion of the case at mid
night.
Both Judge Saftold and Attorney J.
W Bennett, attorneys for McNaugh
ton. and Attorney A. S. Bradley and
Solicitor General R. Lee Moore were
present at the conference Saturday.
With the prisoner branded on the

one hand as th<» most cunning of pri
soners and on the other as the vic
tim of an astounding conspiracy and
misdirected public wrath, the Gov
oror faced an exceedingly hard prob
lem.
It was 12:30 a. m. Saturday when
Judge Frank H. Saffold concluded hK
argument for the physician. The
night session was held at ie request
of Judge Saffold. who desired to leave
for Savannah at 12:15 o’clock. In the
earnestness of hi» pleading for ex
ecutive clemency, however, ho fallen
to recognize the flight of time and
spoke for fifteen minutes beyond the
time his train was due to leave.
Sleton Quizzes Lawyers.
Governor Slaton canceled an en
gagement to deliver an address at tile
Auditorium to hold the night session.
The afternoon session lasted un.d
5:45 o'clock, when a recess was tak?n
until 7 o’clock.
Solicitor General R. Lee Moore and
A. R. Bradley made the arguments for
the State, while Colonel J. W. Bennett
and Judge Saffold made the plea tor
the applicant. Governor Slaton in
terrupted at frequent intervals to ask
questions, quizzing all of the lawyers
and the Emanuel County residents
who had come to Atlanta to protest
against the issuance of a pardon.
Particularly pointed were his quos
tions on the effect wf the arsenic nol
soning alleged to have been given
Fred Flanders and as to how long
traces of the drug <vou)d appear in a
human body. The fact that Flanders
died in convulsion.., which was
brought out fur the first time in tne
hearing before the Governor, was also
dwelt upon by him.
Dr. W. J. Bell, a local physician,
was questioned closely as to the ef
fects of arsenic poisoning. He was
summoned by Judge Saffold. He said
that the amount of poison in a man a
body could not be judged by the
amount found In the stomach, and the
intestines would naturally disclose
more of it than the skin and uther
tissues.
Questions Bell Closely.
“It all depends upon the condition
of a man's body as to how soon he
will throw off poison: there is no
fixed rule, and an expert would have
to be absolutely familiar with every
detail of the patient’s condition to or
able to tell how long he had contained
the poison." said Dr. Bell.
Governor Staton questioned Dr. Bell
closely. The Governor's opinion was
that had Flanders taken the drug
when he was in Thomasville in April
and May It would have been thrown
off by his body before the time of hb
death
