Attorney Chambers laul down his
hand At the meeting Monday and
showed Just what he intended trying
to establish by the testimony of J. ,7.
Peters, manager of the Cotton States
Elecrlc Company.
"1 am only seeking a fair deal,’*
said Peters, "and since 1 withdrew
from this association of contractors
Mr. Turner hasn't given It to me I
had to withdraw from the association
because I wasn’t getting a square
deal In It.
“I was a member at the time of Mr.
Turner’s last election. Practically all
the contractors were against him, but
when he was re-elected by such a
large majority they decided to get on
the good side of him so he wouldn’t
cause any trouble."
Peters then exhibited some type
written sheets of paper which he said
were financial statements of the
Elektrori Company. One Item wan
"R C. T.. $189." Another was "R. C.
T., luncheon. $14 75." The date of the
report was November, 1912.
Tells of Paying Debts.
"R C T stands for R O. Turner,
city electrician,” said Peters. “The
$180 was given to him cash. Many
other times money was raised to pay
debts for him Altogether I know the
Association of Electrical Contractors
raised $70 or $800: in fact, he got the
biggest part of the money raised by
the association.”

calm during this testimony His at-

L .1 Raley, special Investigator for
the Department of Justice, has com
pleted his preliminary Investigation
of the "egg situation” in Atlanta and
has forwarded bis report to Attorney
General Mr Reynolds The investiga
tion has so far covered the situation
only in Atlanta, but it is probable
that Mr Baley will be ordered to
Tennessee, which is in his district,
for an investigation of cold storage
houses and egg dealers of that State.
While Mr. Baley refused to make
public the contents of his report, it
is generally understood that it will
not be followed by any prosecutions
in Atlanta, unless it Is extended later
to the charges that local dealers sell
cold storage eggs under the guise of
fresh eggs.
“I found no corner in eggs in At
lanta.” Mr. Baley said Tuesday
morning, "and did not expect to when
I started the investigation. There
are not enough cold storage eggs
in Atlanta to make a corner possible.
All the cold storage eggs here could
be cornered and the consumer would
never he aware of it, because enough
9ggs can be obtained from the sur
rounding country’ to supply the de
mand.'
torney, Carl Hutcheson, sought to
discount Peters' statements on tlie
grounds that Peters was a violator of
the law and had a reason to conspire
against Turner.
J. F. Ryan. J. E. Sailing and sev
eral other members of the Elektron
Company were called to the stand.
They were told that they had to an
swer the questions asked or suffer
the legal penalty. They said they had
heard of money being given to Tur
ner, but no one would admit personal
knowledge of it. The tendency of the
testimony of each was to designate
the source of the correct information
of the association to be the secre
tary, Mr. Smith.
It Is understood that Mr. Baley’s
investigation dealt mainly with the
possibility that there is some connec
tion between Atlanta dealers and the
dealers who manipulate the alleged
