Tertiary at Atlanta, Ga. .+ .g

According to the surgeon generals
report to the president on his condi-
tion, Morse could not live one month
longer in confinement and even at lib

night he was at liberty through presi-
dental edict. He will be taken to a

THEORY is TESTED
Los Angeles Experiments With
Criminal Detection by Heart
PuISations,

Los Angeles, Cal, Jan: 19.-What Is
believed to have been the first demon
stration in a court of justice of the
Munsterberg theory OF criminal detec-
ton by heart pulsations occurred to-
day at Watts. The demonstration
ended in the discharge of Arthur
Smith, a metal worker from Tacoma,
who had been arrested as suspicious
character. He had consented to be a
party to the experiment and his nor
NAL pulse was found to be 70. 1t in
creased to 81 beats when he gave his
name as James Smithers and Judge
Cassidy told him he was not telling
the truth. His heart then beat at the
rate of 95.
After seconds hesitation the man
replied:
"Arthur Smith is my right name, but
I'm an honest working man and no
yagrant. I'm sorry lied, but l have
relatives in the north"

Evidence Of Brutal Crime; Victim
.-- -. Not Identified. = ~

St. Louis, Mo-, Jan. 19.-The head
less body of man was found In an
ash pit in the rear of 1922 North Ninth
str. -, by patrolman at $3.50 O'Clock
this morning. The body was yet warm
and the man apparently had not been
dead any great length of time.
The body, was first seen by a negro
who said he also saw the head. When
the patrolman reached the ash pit the
head was missing. The negro later
said he might have taken some other
object for the head. The general ap-
pearance OF the torso and it's clothing
indicated that the murdered man had
been Of foreign birth.
The scene is in the heart of what is
called by the police "the blackhand
district The body was tied between
a blanket and mattress, clothes
line being used. The knees were
where the chine should be and the
hands under the knees. The rope had
been. passed under the knees a second
time " - .a
The corpse appeared as If the head
had been cut off after, rather than be-
fore the form had been tied. .sr

May be Reached.

Birmingham, Eng, Jan. 19.-The
conference of delegates of the miners
federation has decided to give notice
forthwith of national stoppage Of
work at the coal mines in Great Brit

the fist date at which the notices can
become effective. The notice Is ac-
companied by an intimation that the
men are ready to continue negotiations
for a settlement.
The conference has adjourned until
Feb 1. As both sides appear to be
heartily resirous Of finding way out
of the deadlock there is a general feel

averted.

MACEDONIA WANTS
POWERS TO STEP IN
Commission Of Inquiry, Reporting on
Dynamite outrages, 6lames
Turkish Officials Acts.

Constantinople, Jan. 19-The people
Of Macedonia have prepared a secret
petition to the powers, asking for In
tervention, according to the report OF
the commission of inquiry sent to the
Ottoman empire to Investigate the
conditions in Macedonia shortly after
the dynamite outrages in that region.
The greatest detection is manifested
BY the people, it is found.
Assassinations are multiplying day
BY day and dynamite outrages every
where are on the increase. Officers
Of the TurNsh army are unable to
hide their gloom. Everywhere the
people speak Of general rising which,
if it does not occur Immediately, will
take place in the spring.
The conditions are due to the pres
ence of officials who are utterly un'
worthy of the confidence the Turkish
government has placed in them. They
disarm the Christian population and
supply arms to the Musselmans. In
nocent people are condemned by them
on the merest suspicion and cast into
prison.
At Istib violence and assassination
continued throughout an entire week
and here, as in other towns and vii
1ages. CONSERVATION prevails. Early
In December a bomb outrage in mos
que at Istib caused the death OF
twelve persons. The Turks avangeo
the outrage on the Bulgarians OF
whom they killed and wounded large
number.

up the selling price and get all
could from the retailers"
The witness said that daily reports
of sales and prices obtained were tele-
graphed to Chicago from the distract
headquarters.

John Wheeler, Captain Patrick j.
Hardin and Lieutenants George Prim,
Daniel T. Kelcher and John B. En-
right were ordered dismissed from the

charges of inefficiency and incom-
potency.
Wheeler is the third police inspec-

investigation into the efficiency OF the
police department. Six police Heu-
tenants have been removed, and one
other captain has resigned, and one
patrolman has been ordered off the

days prior to civil service rules, and
hence immune from discipline by the

Gambling on Labor Day.
The present crusade against ine.fi'
cheney in the department grew out OF
open and apparently, "winked at
gambling near the arena where Frank
Gotch and George Hackenschmidt
wrestled for the worlds championship
last Labor day Citizens complained
and newspapers took up the cry that
police and vice had an understanding
profitable to both Such complaints
arising frequently heretofore, have
produced few results, but the demand
for thorough. examination of condi-
tions in the police department till
Mayor Harrison sent a letter to the
president of the city civil service com.
mission, asking that no one be spared
in an investigation that would bring
the truth to light.
Orders Frequently Lost. -
During the hearings it developed
that orders from the mayor or
chief frequently were lost, over
looked or misunderstood in transmits
sion" through the grades Of command
ing officers, and many never were ap-
piled. Conscientious officers testified
they were hampered by contrary or.
ders from the "men higher up" and
responsibility was passed. .
The Case Of Wheeler. =.
President Harmon Campbell, Of the
commission, said last night Inspector
Wheeler's case was the only one which
had required deliberation by his col
leagues on the trial board. g..
wheeler had been policeman for
thirty years, and grew up under the
old system he said. ''and his lack OF
efficiency was not SO much his fault,
we felt. But, inasmuch as the ques-
tion Of bribery or protection money
did not enter into the case and the ad-
ministration was not efficient, we
found them all guilty.
