Columbia, S. c., February 1.-Chiei
Justice Jones this morning announced
that there would be no further hear.
ing in the Tillman suit. Pending the
decision of the court, the two children
who are the Innocent cause Of the
whole dispute. will remain in the Gus
stody OF their grandparents, Senator and
Mrs. 3. r. Tillman, as the court has
not seen fit yet TO grant the motion
that the two little ones be placed In
the custody Of their mother, Mrs. b.
r. Tillman, Jr., who is the petitioner
in the suit for their recovery.
After the hearing yesterday, con-
lecture was rife as to what the court
would decide, as an early ruling, at
least on the question of the temporary
custody of the children. was expected
by most OF those who had followed the
case.
Tho courtroom was crowded again
this morning when court met, tho
curious crowds and sympathizers o.:
both sides having gathered to witness
what was expected to prove an inter-
esting session. with possibly some Inn
portant developments
But all We're disappointed as the
llTSl ny VIC Couil
was that there would be no further
hearing of tho case. This was fol-
lowed by verbal order, virtually
| postponing decision of the motion con-
corning the temporary custody of the
children. This ruling automatically
favors the respondents.
The case has aroused Statewide in
terest. 1t has wrought many to a high
point of excitement, and In many cases
has caused outbursts of condemnation
| for tho law under which B. r. Tillman,
Jr., was enabled to transfer his chill
dren to his parents, despite the pro-
tests and active opposition Of his
| wife.
Such has been the effect Of this case
that Senator Graydon, of Abbeville,
Ihas introduced In the Senate a bill to
repeal the law, which, he says, is q
| relic Of tho old common law and un-
fitted to present conditions.
| 1t may be a long time yet before
