ATLANTA. Sept. f-The death or Il
4. Bass, proprietor and manager or the
Babb Commission Company, promises 10
develop one of the most sensational cases
in Atlantas record OF crime. The dis
patches Saturday told briefly OF Bass
being found early I'm the morning not
far from his home with a bullet no"
through his head and pistol i'm his hand.
The natural inference was a case or sui
eide though the members of his family
claimed he must have been foully dealt
with
on the coroner's inquest details OF the
story came out The verdict of the jury
was that the man had been murdered
For more than year Bass mas been UNI
der the surveillance of the city detectives
who have secured ore or cnore indictments
against him for receiving stolen GOODS
He was a man of good standing III the
business world, and his friends laughed
at the charges Some OF the detectives
went so far as to declare that Bass was
the worst man they had ever had 10
deal with. Bass, on the other hand'
charged that they had entered into con-
spirac-v against him, and had announcer
that IL was his intention 10 go before the
yrand Jury. which meets in very lew
davs. for the purpose of securing an IN
dictment against at least two or tne ue-
tectiyes on a charge OF conspiracy
The notice commissioners have taken
,,ersoral charge of the case. For some
time there have been charges OF inefn-
cheney made against the detectives, ana II
is the theory OF the friends OF Bass that
i'm some way they were instrumental in'
or AT least cognizant Of, what led to the
killing. The assistant United states as
trsct attorney, who represented Bass IN
the charges made against him. says thae
he had the best kind Of a deience' ana
noints out that his case could not possibly
have been reached within month or SIX
weeks and that the theory OF SUICIDE
at this time because OF fear OF 'he uiS-
closures that might come Is absurd
