NEGRO BRUSHES WHITE MANS HEAD

Crawfordville. Ga, May 21.-Henry Googer. aged 50. prosperous planter residing a mile from this place, was found murdered last night in a field where he had been at work and Joseph Moore, negro farm hand is under ar rest charged with the crime. The in dications that the negro is guilty are said to be so strong that there is prob ability of a lynching. Blood stains were found on the shoes worn by Moore when he was arrested and he also had a shotgun which was loaded with the same size shot as those found in the body of the dead farmer.
 Googer evidently had been shot in the back while at work and his slayer then had crushed in the back of his head with stones.
 It is said that the negro had been employed by Googer for several months. Friday they quarrelled over trivial matter and the negro left, but re- turned the next day, when the crime was committed. Googer was married and is survived by his widow and three children.

OWL MAN TALKS OF HIS ATLANTA TRIP President Riddle Says He Is Not Ready to Attach
 Money Yet

c. F. Riddle, president of the local nest the statement he was quoted as having made in Atlanta to the effect that his looge was in trouble, and that he intended to attach "every cent of money in Bir- mingham that even looked like it be- longed to an Owl organizer
 "rhe printed dispatch was a misstate- ment," said MT. Riddle. 'It is true that did go to Atlanta recently in the in terest of the organization. but was not prompted by any doubts as to the status of our local nest.
 q found in Atlanta, however, that thcre was a good deal of dissatisfaction over the fact that H. R. Caulfeld, the national organizer, had in granting the Atlanta charter confined the number of charter members to 2990, while upon inves- tigation it was shown that his receipts had run 173 in excess of the number allowed No little discontent was caused over in Atlanta by the statement of the auditors, who were called in to look after the standing of the organization, that the methods of the organizers were open to misrepresentation and graft.
 "So far as l know we have no cause for alarm in our case. And at any rate should hesitate to make any adverse statement until know in just what shape are our affairs. We intend to have the books of the order audited within a very few days, and not before then will we be prepared to give out any statement what soever. But as for the statement l was said to have made In Atlanta I want it understood that I did not make mention of returning to Birmingham and attach l ing any money that looked like it be-
 lcnged to an Owl organizer I stated
 however, that I should not hesitate tC
 take that course if should have fount
 upon my return that caulfeld had givei 1 receipts in excess of the charter allow
 ance and pocketed the money as they
 claimed in Atlanta"

Every man of this squad is a veteran of other wars. and had been often under fire before. Morgan fought the Boers down on the veldt of South Africa. The others were in the Spanish-American or other conflicts of recent years.

Weekly Dry Goods Review

New York, May H.-There was ue~ cided improvement last week in the dry goods market, chiefly in gray goods to bc made and including wide print cloths. fine carded yarn cloths and fine combed va,n cloths. There was also general increase in the orders of staple prints. ticLings, staple ginghams and other lines of goods for immediate use.
 The jobbins trade showed more interest in the future market than for some time past and there, has been removal of the severe restrictions imposed by merchant dise manufacturers due to uncertain financial factors. Prints. bleached cot tons and narrow brown goods were bought for exports to miscellaneous ports.
 Fall River sold 100000 pieces of print cloth Drills and sheetings, duck and other heavy cotton goods are firm, but trading is still small in volume. Under wear and hosiery have been more ac' tive at retail and in jobbing circles. Be- cause of the scarcity of cotton and the difficulty in getting cloth prices up to q basis Of present cotton values an in' crease in, the curtaiiment of cloth rro' dllction Is noted.

STOCKS HINGED
 ON STANDARD O|L Discussion Responsible for Marked Activity REACTION SETS IN Government Suit Against Lumber Companies Helped to Check
 the Wild Speculative
 Impulse
REACTION SETS IN

New York, May 21-The action of the stock market last week hinged almost entirely on the Standard oil decision, rem dition of which on Monday was followed by the most active speculation Of the year. After period of marked strength and activity some hesitation developed, and toward the end of the week mild reaction set in.
 Technical conditions were to some ex- tent responsible for the change. The ex- tent and rapidity of the rise invited profit-taking and at the same time dimin- ished the demand for investment pur- roses, once a definitely higher level Of prices was reached. The weeks move ment was due primarily, however to sat- isfaction with the supreme court decision as a first impression which was later modified by consideration of all its bear ings. This interpretation of financial sen timent is borne out by the drltt or pup lie discussion accompanying the prlce movement. First came chorus or unl- versal relief that the suspension of week. ly watching for the decision was ended. There seemed to be also a general con- viction that a process of readjustment to new conditions would begin at once, and that an early revival in business and industry might be expected.
 The widest generalizatlons were drawn from that feature of the decision which imparted "the light of reason" into the construction of the anti-trus law. The frs conclusions drawn by stock oper- atcrs from this feature ran all the way to probable total exemption from future prosecution for capital combinations un- der this interpretation. This too sweep ing assumption was soon modified
 The filing of a government suit against various lumber companies on the ground that they were guilty of unreasonable" restraint of trade also helped to check the speculative impulse in the stock mar lket and reminded the financial world that prosecutions of this nature were not a thing of the past
 The animation in the stock market gave a f1rmer tone to money rates which have been abnormally low for several weeks. Retail trade reports gained some stimula- tion from warmer weather. Small buying by the railroads was feature in the steel trade. firmer tone in copper was due as much to revived rumors of a merger of the principal producers as to awakened consumptivc demand. Crop reports were favorable. fresh advance in old crop cotton calls renewed attention to the problem confronting the textile indus try.

LEROY PERCY BACK
 ID WASHINGTON

Jackson, Miss, May 21.-(Special. )-Sen- ator LeRoy Percy has been compelled to temporarily abandon his tour of the state and return to Washington to take part in the debate on pending measures all though he is paired He has had stren- uous campaign for the past three or four weeks, speaking every day and some days two or three times-always to large and appreciatiye audiences, even in the strongholds of his chief opponent, ex- Governor vardaman.
 Senator Percy had anticipated recall to the national capital and for that reas- on had not made speaking appointments very far ahead. He left for Washington | today, cancelling only one date, that at Walthall, Webster county. Before leaving
 home Senator Percy gave out the follow ing signed statement:
 T am just in receipt of advice from
 my colleague, John Sharp Williams, that l the bill for election of senators by the di- rect vote of the people will probably come up in the Senate early next week. l ap- l prehend that some amendment, similar l to the Sutherland amendment, will be offered, and I feel the question involved to be of such paramount importance as to necessitate my returning to Washing ton, even though paired Although much dislike any interruption to my cam. paign at this time, I believe my friends throughout the state will appreciate thu situation, and will work all the harde because of my enforced absence from tht canvass.
 Especially do I regret to cancel my appointment at Walthall on Monday it being the second time I nave had tc cancel a date in Webster county Though disappointed at having to leave even tenn pcrarily a campaign which has been mos gratifying to me, there is some compensa- ton in the fact that I leave both Major Vardaman and his Issue in active er- ruption, and I doubt if I could do more effective work for myself than they will do.

GUARDS NO LONGER ,(NATCH CHILDREN 
  Heirs of Rockefeller Being Raised By '"The Ideal
 Mother"

Chicago, May 21.-(Special)- who have been protecting Muriell and Fowler Mccormick, children of MT. and Mrs. Harold F. Mccormick. and grand children of John D. Rockefeller, ever since the return of the McCormicks of last autumn at their mansion on Lake Shore drive. have been withdrawn. The children, part heirs to the great . est fortune In the world. now attend school, walk. drive and go down town with no supervision other than that of their governness
 The detectives who stood guard night and day over the Mccormick mansion. shadowing all strangers and question ing all callers at the house not known to the butler. ended their service there < at the same time the children's guard was found unnecessary.
 Ever since the threat of blackmailers made by letter to Mrs. Mccormick in 1908, to steal the two children and hold them for ransom, the daughter of John D. Rockefeller has lived in con stant terror of loss of the two. For a time she feared even that the black maflers would blow up the house in a plot to steal the boy and girl For sev- eral weeks an unusually large force of private detectives guarded the grounds of the McCormick's, but the men were taken away gradually until all were gone
 The private school attended by the Mccormick children was guarded as carefully by detectives as if 1t had been bastile and they the guards. 4. The reason for the withdrawal of the guards is not given by Mrs McCor- mick. but it is believed her desire that her children be brought up as demo- cratically as their wealth will hermit Arfumphed over her own fears for their safety. Mrs. Mccormick insisted on her cE.sdren's attendance at school with ~other children, even while threatenine letters were being received and she herself feared for their safety every s0me they left her direct care
 The children are always dressed sim. { ply and their pleasures are such as might be enjoyed by the children of an, sparents of moderate means. Mrs. Me. zCormick is known in tho society set which she leads as the ideal mother pressed her fear that the children mi iehi Dc stolen for sansom but has been de claring of late that the children's owr objections to the restrictions of being guarded seemed to her potent enough tc outweigh consideration for their con stant protection.
