ATLANTA GRAND
 JURY THREATENS Will Stop "Tippling" on Sum- day and Force Out
 Bugus Clubs

Atlanta. May 5.-(Special.) )-F'ulton the recent police investigation of the At lanta clubs, with a possibility of some in- dictments for violation of the state prohi- ton laws.
 That is what it will do if it carires out the instructions of Judge W. D. Ellis of the superior court in his opening charge. Calling attention to the fact that there are clubs operated in Atlanta unquestion- ably for the purpose of violating the pro- hibition law, as they are no more nor less than bar rooms under cover, and more dangerous than bar rooms, Judge Ellis declared, because they are more re- moved from police supervision, the court told the grand jury 1t was its duty to in vestigate all the clubs of the city, pick out the goats and where they are appar- ently bogus clubs organized only to sell liquor under cover, to indict them for vio- lating the state prohibition law.
 Judge Ellis even went further than that, and gave in charge the law against keeping an open tipping house on Sun day He charged that where men gather in clubs or even In private homes, hab- itually on Sunday for the purpose of drinking, it is a violation of Sths law, whether the liquors are sold to them or not
 This portion of the charge created something of mild sensation among the clubmen of the city, since it is generally known that a drink can be procured on Sunday at almost any club in the city.
 But 1t still remains to be seen what the grand jury is going to do about 1t all.
