INDICTED FOR MURDER.
True Bill Returned by Grand Jury
Against Joe Spann.

At yesterdays session of the grand
jury of the Superior Court true bin of
Indictment nor murder was returned
against Joe Spann, who shot and fatally
wounded Ranzie Matthews, on May &c.
last. Matthews died at the Georgia In
Urinary, where he was carried after he
was shot, from the effects of the wounds
inflicted by Spann, few days ago.
The shooting was done while Mat
thews was in mis- room. in a house on
Lumber street. and Spann in the street
outside. The men had had a row ten or
fifteen minutes before, but had separated
and Matthews had gone to his room.
When Spann came up the row was re-
newed and the fatal shooting was its re-
suit. At the time of his arrest, Spann
claimed he had shot because Matthews
cursed him.
There was nothing in the evidence as
it was presented to the grand Jury to
indicate that there was an excuse for
the homicide; on tho contrary it seemed
to have been a perfectly wanton murder
and the true bill was promptly returned
Spann has been under arrest since the
shooting. His victim fingered a month
before he died.

STATE COULDN'T CONVICT.
Every Defendant Tried in Superior
Court Found Not Guilty.

Court Found Not Guilty.
Yesterday was an unsatisfactory day for
the trial of criminal cases in the Supe-
rior Court, so far as concerned the state
Five or six cases were tried, and in not
a single one of them was there a convic-
ton. Every defendant was given a ver-
dict of not guilty.
Augustus Cassels, the negro driver of
a grocery wagon. was tried on an in
dictment charging him with assault with
intent to murder Henry Green, another
negro, with a piece of scantling. The
evidence for the defense was that Cas-
sells had done nothing more than protect
himself against an organized attack, and,
with the evidence as to his good char
acter this served to impress the jury
with the fact that he was not guilty of
the offense with which he was charged.
He was acquitted.
John Hill was found not guilty of may
hem. There wasn't much doubt about the
fact that Hill had chewed off the left ear
of John Brown, another negro, but the
evidence showed that it was done in a
free fight, in which Hill had been badly
cut and stabbed. The minds of the jury
men were not convinced that Hin had
been responsible for the fight or that he
needed additional punishment and a YER
dict of not guilty was returned. The row
between the two men was started by the
transfer of the affections of Browns wife
to Hill, to which Brown had objected The
fight and the loss of his ear followed when
he attempted to make these objections
good

LEVY STILL AT LARGE.
Detectives Believe That He SYSTEM
aticaIIy Robbed Haskell.

atically Robbed Haskell.
! Ike Levy. who is wanted by the police
for robbing KaskeIl's pawnshop, on
Congress street, has not yet been To-
Gated. although the swamps around Mel
drim are being closely guarded. The pc
culiar manner in which Levy escaped ar
rest at the little station on the Central
Railroad, was mentioned in the Morn
ing News yesterday. The officers believe
that the telegraph operator and Bob
Levy, the alleged robbers brother, are
still together and that they will make
their way north, If indeed they have not
already gone, 1t is thought by some that
the men escaped under the cover of
darkness Thursday NIGHT.
The pawnbroker has not yet been able
TO determine just how much of his prop
erty was stolen by Levy. but the detec-
tives are of the opinion that the amount
will reach several hundred dollars. The
loss will not be ascertaned until stock
has been taken. 1t appears that Kas-
kell had been out of the city for several
ing his absence. The detectives believe
that the clerk Systematically robbed the
store and that when Haskell returned to
the city he made up his mind to take
long chance and get out Of the way. Be
fore departing he took everything he
could get his hands on, for the purpose,
no doubt, of defraying the expenses of
the "trip.

DOUBLE ASSESSMENT EXPLAINED
Sensational Stories Denied by
knights of Pythias.

knights of Pythias.
Mr.. w. T. Leopold, grand keeper of
records and seals for Georgia. says that
the special session in Chicago will not
result in any sensations. 1t appears that
a double assessment was issued in May
which naturally caused inquiries to be
made. One of the rules of the endowment
rank is that mones shall be invested only
in such things as can be readily convert
ed into cash.
Mr.. Leopold says that the board OF con-
troll saw an opportunity to purchase a
Chicago hotel for 100000, and paid out
that amount for the property. 1t was a
remarkably fine investment, but in max
ing the purchase one of the stringest rules
of the rank was broken. The Galveston
disaster piled up an enormous death claim
and with an increased death rate from
other parts of the country at a timo of
the month when assessments were not
due, an extra assessment had to be made.
The situation will be gone over fully
at the Chicago meeting. The hotel pur-
chased by the endowment branch was re-
Gently put up at forced sale and $l1O 900
was offered for it. The new officers real
ize that 1t is a good investment, and the
property will probably be kept The
Georgia representatives of the Supreme
Lodge are 7. j. CARING Of Macon and
Hamilton Douglas of Atlanta. They will
attend the special session. The endow-
ment rank is in a healthy condition, Mr..
Leopold says. and the trouble came about
in the manner stated
The statements contained I'm recent tele-
grams from Chicago to the effect that
the Supreme Lodge. knights OF Pythias,
is to be held In Chicago on July 3. where
a former higher official of the endowment
rank will be Investigated and that the
funds of the rank have been mismanaged

Pythians here TO be untrue and without
foundation

A HOmespun Heart.

A new pastoral comedy from the pen
of Hal Reid will be the attraction at the
Grand the first half of next week. This
play is by far the strongest that MIR.
ReiL has ever written, and is a compan-
ion play of Human Hearts" but far
exceeding that favorite in intense in
terest and rapidity of action. There is
not a dun moment, and pathos and CON-
edy are happily blended in this reflex
of rural love and life. The company is
an unusually strong one, containing
such well known people as Lillian Har-
rls, Ann Singleton, Florence Webster,
Page Spencer, Frank Hartwell and Zach
Evans. The special scenery for "A
Homespun Heart" is from the well
known studio of Sosman & Lands, and
is extremely realistic.
