Probable That Case Will Not Be Called Before Next Fall. The news of the indictment against Mr. Thomas E. Watson, charged with sending obscene matter through the mails, was given in the Herald Friday afternoon. The Indictment was not returned in open court until 3:40 p. m. As the Herald was going to press Hon S. G. McLendon, of counsel for Mr. Watson, was asking the court that the rase be tried as early as possible and he stated that the defendant was ready. District Attorney Akerman pleaded an engagement before Judge Grubb in Savannah next Monday and for sev eral consecutive weeks the district at torney said he would be busy else where. Judge Sheppard announced that It would he practically impossible to try the case at this term of court unless he called a special session of court or had on adjourned term of the court af ter he had finished with the work in his own district in Florida. It is believed, therefore, that the Watson case will not be called before the fall term of the U. S. court in Au gusta. The indictment against Mr. Watson is similar to the one which was drawn before and which Judge Foster, sitting at Augusta last year, quashed In the federal court. Immediately after that Indictment was quashed by Judge Foster the case was again presented to the grand Jury and the district at torney failed of procuring an Indict ment by one vote. The case was pre sented to the grand jury at this term for the third time. The indictment charges that In the issues of Mr. Watson's paper In 1911 and 1912 In a series of articles entitled “Tho Roman Catholic Hierarchy, the Deadliest Menace to Our Liberties and Our Civilization,” he printed obscene matter contrary to the statutes of the United States. Besides the Indictment against Thomas E. Watson, the grand jury handsil down eight others, John M. Mays, breaking open a letter and tak ing the contents; Ed Peaks, alias “Spartanburg,” car-breaking; Nathan Richardson, car-breaking; Arthur Johnson, Impersonating a United States officer; Charlie Orlffln, car breaking; Jim Sutton, illicit distillery; Roy Sutton, Illicit distillery; Harry Veal, illicit distillery; James D.

Atlanta, Ga. —The hearing of the elmrge of ronteropt of court ugainst ■William J. Burns and Dan S. I.ehon, h s lieutenant In the Frank Investigation, which was set for Friday was postponed until next week, with no definite date fixed. Lehon and Burns, through their at torneys, Little, Powell, Hooper & Gold stein, have Pled an answer to the con tempt charge, which attorneys general ly believe fully purges them of any con tempt, even If there was a prlma facie case against them, As a result, It is expected the hearing will be extremely short and the charge In all probability dismissed. The answer of Bums and Lehon de velops the Interesting fact that they were advised by Attorneys Luther Z. Rosser and Reuben R. Arndld that there was not the slightest impropriety or Il legality In their conduct in sending the witness. Annie Maud Carter, out of the city, but that it was the appropriate and proper thing to do under the cir cumstances. Was Aiding the Court. The answer says: “Deponent believes that in so doing (sending the witness out of town) he was serving the cause of right and Justice, and was aiding the court In the ascertainment of truth, and was In no wise intending any contempt of court or of its processes, hut was en deavoring to assist the court In having Its witnesses brought into court free from any Improper influence being ex erted upon them.” The answer set out that nothing be yond the expenses of the woman was pMd her, and that It is well under the ethics of the slluat'on that where a wit ness Ii being detained for the use of a party that it is proper that the party should pav the expenses actually In curred. and that If the defendant had not voluntarily paid the expenses that he would have been legally liable for them. In Good Faith. The defendant was acting In good faith and honestly endeavoring to assist rather than obstruct the court, the an swer says. I.ehon sets out that when the first s-w Annie Maud Carter she was In the office of Attorneys Herbert and Leonard Haas and that she had Just made the affida vit In the Frank case, and was express ion fear that when the fact became known that she was a witness for Frank that she would be subjected to violence, <fr coercion or Imprisonment by the city detectives, and they (Burns and Lehon) had to guarantee tlx* she would be protected before she signed the affi davit. Woman Was Scared. The woman was badly frightened, the answer sets out, and it was feared that if not kept under surveillance she would run away and not he present at the court If she was needed at any time to give oral testimony. With that in view two Borns operatives were ordered to guard her night and day. The answer then sets out that because of the surveilsnce and protection, Le hon was enabled to get the woman back to the city and turn her over to the Bher’ff of the county, when the court or „red her brought hack to Its juris diction. She was a witness for the defense, the paper sets out. and it was considered necessary to keep her whereabouts known to the defendant and his counsel, and to keep her where she was free from being tampered with by adverse interests. ],ehon Is still in the elty, ready to at tend any hearing, but Burns, who Is In New York, will probably not return un less his personal appearance in court is desired by Judge Hill.

This was one of the big features of the evening’s entertainment, and, to say the least of it, will be long remembered by lovers of music who heard it. After some extra pieces played by the band, the next selection on the program rendered was a polka Fan tastique, a trombone solo by Mr. J. Clmera, the assistant director of tho band. Mr. Clmera is so near perfect on his instrument that the difference Is not observed. "The Village Blacksmith.” The first part of the evening's pro gram was concluded by “The Village Blacksmith,” a sectacular fantasie, by Michaelis. In this piece all the lights under the tent were switched off and the effect from the electric anvils was delightful. The four musicians swing ing the hammers at the anvils were in costume. The piece was thoroughly descriptive of the title. In the second part of the program Kryl himself, who bears the reputa tion of being one of the world’s most famous cornetists, gave a solo, a fan tasia on German song, written by himself. By some of the leading mus ical critics in this country he has been termed as a complete master of his difficult instrument, and last night he certainly convinced Augustans of this fact. The Soldier’s Drearr\ The last piece played was consider ed by many as the most beautiful of the evening. A synopsis of the piece, “The Soldier’s Dream,” arranged by Bohimur Kryl, follows: Tattoo.

Mr. Flow ers’ home is in California, the state in which nearly all of the Japanese in this country live, and he knows whereof of he speaks. His previous residence in the East and his extensive travel on lecture tours has also given him the viewpoint of the Easterner on this topic. Mr. Flowers is an orator, in fact, is one of the finest speakers on the American platform. For two years he was president of the International Lyceum Association, of which nearly all Chautaqua and Ljfceum lecturers in this country are members.
