IS RELEASED ON
BIGAMY CHARGE
GRAND JURY RETURNS A NO BILL
AGAINST ClGARMAKER AND
HE is RELEASED.

Roland Gwinne, the young cigar
maker, who has been in the Glynn
county Jail for the Fast two or three
weeks, en- a charge of bigamy was
released yesterday, the grand jury
having returned 70 ILL in his case
Gwinne il viii he remembered, was
married to a 5oung Brunswick girl
and a few days following the wedding
he was arrested. it Eeing charged Gy
the parents of the bride that he had
two other wives, one in Tampa and
the other in Key West. Young Gwinne
did not deny that he had been mar
ried on two previous occasions, but
claimed that he had been legally di
vorced from both wives.
1t is understood that an investiga-
ton was made. and, as the grand jury
returned no loill, it appears that
his statement was true. 1t is known
that efforts were made to secure evil
dence both at Tampa and Key West
to prove that he had never been di
vcrced. hut the effort failed Young
Gwinne, at the time he was arrested,
stated that once he entered suit for a
divorce and secured it and the sec

riage. entered suit against him. The
case came up before the grand jury
yesterday, with the above result. This
will probably be the end of the case.

SECRETARY KNOX DETERMINED
TO AVENGE CANNON AND GROCE

Washington Dec St is reported
here on good authority that Secretary
of State Knox expects that the Uni
ted States will have TO put all army OF
occupation into Nicaragua until a
government that will stand stiIl a few
minutes is founded, as was done in
Cuba.l
Zelaya, in the Knox mind, is a de-
generate disturber, ard has become a
murderer. With quick perception the
secretary seized upon the admission
of Zelaya that Cannon and Groce, the
Americans killed by Zelaya, were of
ficers OF tae revolutionary army. So
Mr.. Knox has sent out police alarm
for the apprehension of murderer.
If the Estrada government succeeds
Zelaya will be tried and punished for
murder If it becomes necessary for
the United States to establish pro-
visional government, Zelaya will be
tried for murder. In the meantime
all G. mmanders of United States war
ships on both sides of Nicaragua are
under orders to see that Zelaya does
not escape. Secretary Knox is out to

PEOPLE IN THIS SECTION MAY
EXPERIENCE SOME COLD
WEATHER NOW.

While the people in other sections
of the country are now experiencing
t1e coolest weather OF the winter
In many sections the mercury being
down below 20, those in sunny south
Georgia are really enjoying the little
cold wave, which is nothing more than
pleasant weather, and while a decided
fail in the temperature is predicted
for day in Georgia, it Is not expect
ed that the mercury will go below
the freezing point in this section Of
The state.
The change in the weather started
early yesterday morning, and those
VINO retired early in the night with
Light cover probably dreamed they
we're sleeping in an ice box. The mer-
cuy dropped twenty points In less
than five hours.
The prediction for today Is fer cold
er weather, wit frost. In the north
ern section Of the state Il is expected
that the mercury win drop below the
freezing point, but the average tenn
perature in this section will sc about
50 degrees.
In st. Louis the temperature Is Is
degrees with snow, while in the north
west il is below zero, registering 25
below at Hayre, Montana This ex-
tremely severe weather is not billed
for Georgia, but it is predicted that
by tonight the thermometer will reg
ister 25 degrees or lower, making a
drop Of at least 30 degrees in thirty
six hours.
This news will be joyfully received
by Georgia farmers, as they have for
weeks been impIoring the weather bu-
reau for colder weather. The observer
now says they can go ahead with
their work without the least fear of
warm weather for at least week.

NOUS SUM.
Those Interested in Rivers and Har-
bors Gather in Washinoton and

With President Taft as the princi-
pal speaker of the day, with Secre-
tary of War Dickinson and Count Won
8ernstorff. the German ambassador,
also speakers, with governors from
many states and delegates from near
lY all states in attendance, the OPEN
ing OF the congress was most aus
picious. The president is an enthus-
iastic advocate of improved water
ways, and in his address went most
thoroughly into all phases of the gil
gantic move.
Taft Backs Movement
President Taft has appeared at pre-
vious meetings of the congress, and
has pledged himself to the movement.
He has but recently taken occasion to
express himself upon the general pol
icy of conservation of the nation s
natural resources. placing waterway
improvements at the head of the list.
Secretary Dickinson is greatly i'm
pressed with the necessity Of deepen
ing the rivers and harbors. Upon
him, as secretary of war, would fall
the duty of carrying out any concerted
plan for waterway improvements.
A General Appropriation.
The National Rivers and Harbors
congress stands for the general ap-
preparation of fifty millions year for
! the internal development of the rivers,
harborS and canals of the United
States, to be distributed on the vari-
Gus projects which have the approval
cf the engineer corps of the army.
Should current revenues be insufficient
to make such an appropriation posi-
bic then the congress urges the au-
thorizafion of $500, 900 900 of waterway
bCnds at a low rate of interest. VITA
the same conditions surrounding these
bonds as surround the Panama canal
bonds, said bonds however, are not to
be issued unless current revenues
prove inadequate to carry out such a
policy.
The National Rivers and Harbors
congress was founded in Baltimore in
October, 1SvA, at which some 600 dele
gates were present. At the last con-
vention held in the city of Washing
ton, last December, nearly $500 dele
gates were present. and at the opening
today the number of delegates in at
tendance is nearly 1000.
Dr. John A. Fox, director of the
congress. declared today that i'm
proved waterways are necessary to
save the shippers of the country from
the increasing demands CT the rail
roads.
