ORDERS ARE GIVEN TO
PUT BACK THE TRAINS
Central 7 To Resume Old
Schedule.

Central Railway passenger train
No 7, arriving in Americus, at 0:4O
p m., and now making this city the
end of the run, will resume the old
schedule after next Saturday, June
9Th, running through to Albany and
returning here next morning at 4:40.
Such was the information given out
yesterday by the Railroad Commits
sion, to which the case was appealed
by merchants of Albany
1t is simply resumption of the old
schedule of trains and 8.
The Americus Board of Trade fav-
ored the change back to the old sche-
dule, and Pres. Allen appointed a
committee of members of the Board
to accompany the Albany delegation
to Atlanta to that end. For some
reason, however, they did not go.
Pres. Allen, when the fact was
known, sent the following telegram
in care of the commission:
"The Board of Trade of Americus
earnestly desire the reinstatement Of
trains No. and 8, between Macon
and Albany for the reason that retG"
trade south of Americus to Leesl'-ys
and Dawson is lost to America Jy

This telegram, no doubt had it's eff
feet in influencing the Commission in
reaching a decision
Yesterday Pres. Allen was advised
by telergam from Atlanta that the
Commission had ordered the restora-
ton of the former schedules, effec-
tive June 7th. The information will
be a source of satisfaction to Ameri-
Gus merchants.
These trains were a source of con-
Venience to many people living south
of Americus, who could come here
to do their shopping and return home
the same day.

REVIVAL Is STILL ONE
OF INTEREST TOlALI

The revival at the First Baptist
church today will be characterized by
special services. At the mornig ser
vice, eleven o'clock, the evangelist,
Rev. Bucholtz, will speak to the
church on very important theme, and
every member is urged to be present.
In the afternoon there will be a
mass meeting for both sexes, but
which is especially designed for par
ents and their children, and to which
all denominations are invited.
The evangelist's theme at this ser
vice will be Safeguards around the
Home" At eight o'clock he will speak
on Household Salvation" and it is
hoped that many of the households of
Americus will be represented
The meetings thus far have failed to
reach the public, owing to the many
attractions at other points, but the
pastor most cordially invites the pub
lie to hear Mr.. Bucholtz.
Mr.. Bucholtz is man of charming
personality, and preacher of most
wonderful gifts. His meetings at
other points have met with great suc7
cess, scores having united with the
church under his influence.ff
Mr. Bucholtz is employed by the
Woman's Missionary Baptist Union.
He comes with all the environments
necessary to give him the ear of the
people.
This week will be largely devoted
to evangelistic services.

HUGHES SWINGS ON TO
ALLEGED STOLEN LETTERS
MANAGER DODSON PUTS HIM IN VERY EMBARRASSING P0STONNO
INDICATION OF ENACT MANNER IN WHICH PROPERTY QUESTION
is TO BE USED AGAINST LEWIS-GREAT INTEREST TAKEN IN
THE STORY.

The story of the burglarizing of the
Office of Hon. w. A. Dodson, campaign
manager for Congressman Elijah B.
Lewis, as published in the Times-Re-
cOrder yesterday, and the fact that
Dudley NJ Hughes claimed to have
the letters in his possession, was a
general topic of conversation on the
streets yesterday Strong condemna-
ton of such campaign methods ON
the part of friends of Mr.. Hughes was
heard on all sides.
Further details in connection with
the demand for the return of the let
ters on the part of Manager DodsOn
came to light yesterday.
On Friday Manager Dodson wrote
a sharp letter to Mr. Hughes, calling
that gentleman's attention to the fact
that the latter must now be aware of
the methods by which the letters had
been obtained, if he did not know be-
fore. The return of the letters was
then demanded, and the name of the
persons from whom Mr. Hughes re-
ceived them.
In closing the letter Manager Dod-
son said: Il cannot believe, unless
your future conduct shows it, that you
will be a willing party to the shield
ing of the criminals who burgIarized
my office"
Mr. Hughes, in reply, declined to
give up the letters, and claimed that
he did not know the source from
which they came to him. He prOpOs-
ed that the letters be submitted to
a committee to pass on the question
of using them in the campaign, or he
would return such as Manager Dod-

$4,000 is DIVIDED:
ONE PENNY is LEFT
Odd Incident Is Reported
Here.

Ten thousand dollars was divided
equally yesterday morning in Ameri-
Gus among seven beneficiaries to an
insurance policy, and when each had
received his or her portion there still
remained one little copper cent, for
lorn and unclaimed. The policy was
delivered by Mr.. Fred B. Arthur to
heirs of the late Mrs. J M. Johnson,
who held a life policy for $4,000 in
a company represented by him. I'm
der the apportionment, each bene-
ficiary would have received 81 1,428.57.
This sum, again multiplied by seven,
the number of heirs participating
makes the amount $9,999.99, thus
leaving an odd penny. However, the
heirs decided not to divide it up
among themselves, as they did not
particularly need the money, and it
was accordingly deposited in bank in
lump sum to their credit.

A COVEY OF JAILBIRDS
COOPED UP FOR TRIAL
Criminal Docket in Su-
periOr Court.

Having disposed of all tht civil
business presented at this term, Judge
Littlejohn will take up the criminal
docket in superior court Monday
morning, disposing of it with the same
celebrity as marked the transaction of
business during the week passed.
In this brief time nearly forty cases
were cleared from the civil docket by
trial or consent verdict, and this with
in four or five days.
But the week with the jail birds will
prove a buster one.
While there are no cases of great
interest or Importance, the number
of felonies will keep the mills of JUS
tice turning at least until Friday. Two
homicides among negroes and severa
burglaries and other felonies are
booked for trial this week
The grand jury adjourned after four
days session and the remainder o1
the term will be correspondence
brief.

1t is understood that Mr. Dodson's
reply will be an emphatic declaration
that it is not a question of commit
tees, but a plain demand on his part
that letters acknowledged to have
been stolen from his office in the in
terest Of Mr. Hughes candidacy for
Congress, be returned to him without
any additional correspondence over
the matter Mr. Dodson maintains
that Mr.. Hughes position is absolute
ly untenable and that public senti-
ment throughout the district is
against him for receiving and keep
ing stolen documents
The Hughes people give no indica
ton as to the use they will make
of the letters. One rumOr has it
that they have been printed in circu-
lar form in Macon, and are ready for
distribution throughout the district,
but the report lacks confirmation One
of Mr.. Hughes closest friends states
that Hughes expressed a desire to
turn the letters over to Judge Little
John of this circuit, and SOlicitor-G Gen
eral Frank Hooper, and leave it to
them as to whether he would be justi-
fled in making any use of them. In
fact, it is claimed that Mr.. Hughes
made some such proposition as this
in his first letter to Manager Dodson,
announcing that he was in possession
of the letters
With only three more DAYS before
the primary, the voters are watching
closely the next move of either side.
Whatever is done by either side will
be done quickly, so as to catch the
opposition at the greatest possible
disadvantage.

HUGHES READS Ten
MISSING LETTERS

A telephone message was received
from Hawkinsville last night stating
that Hon Dudley NJ. Hughes had
spoken to a small audience, and that
he had read about ten of the letters
which were taken from the private
files of Mr. wv. A Dodson, manager
for Congressman E. B. Lewis. The
message was to the effect that little
enthusiasm had been aroused, the eff
feet of the letters having been neutral
lied, probably, by the publication OF
the manner in which they had been
taken from Mr.. Dodson's office.
