two companies OF militia which have
camped in the race course on orders of
Governor Marshall to prevent racing

Knots defiance to the militia was
not contained in his threat to get court
aid. He said he would start the races
on schedule time today whether the

clared there had been no gambling at

When He Shot 8eIding.

: That j. w. Camp shot and killed his
fellow officer, s. A. BeIding while In
frenzy superinduced by the excessive
use of liquor, will be the theory upon
which the state will proceed in the
prosecution of the policeman now on
trial for his life in criminal division of
superior court.
Although Solicitor Dorsey has re-
manned silent as to the tack the prose
cution will take to met the self-defense
arguments advanced by his opponents,
testimony given today proved that the
state would build it's case upon the
theory that Camp heated by liquor,
shot Bedding during a trivial quarrel
The trial which began at 40 o'clock
yesterday afternoon was resumed at 8
o'clock this morning. Police officers,
witnesses for the state, held the stand
during the early hours. The jury was
drawn late yesterday afternoon after
IS veniremen had been examined.
The contest over the selection Of the
jury was waged az vigorously by the
state as by the defense, and seventeen
veniremen were excused at once by the
solicitor. Every one of the seventeen
went on record before the court as be-
ing opposed to capital punishment Per
haps never before In Fulton superior
court have as many veniremen, drawn
on single case, told the court that
they could not sentence a man to death.
DR.. S. II Green, city physician. was
the first witness. He finished his tes-
timony before court adjourned at s
o'clock yesterday. Police Chief Beav-
ers then took the stand and resumed his
testimony this morning.
The court room was filled with spec
tators. Scores of witnesses, who will
be called to the stand by the defense

Turned Apparent
Defeat Into Victory.

Moving from the beleaguered city of
Adrianople in a brilliant sortie. the
Turks drove back the Bulgarian lines,
and. after twelve hours of fighting,
what had looked several days ago like
inevitable Turkish defeat was turned
to apparent victory. But the Bulga-
rians fought fiercely, contending every
inch Of ground. The Bulgarian bat
teries stationed on the towering hills
fired uncea sing volleys into the ranks
of lie Turkish soldiers. The princi-
pal divisions of both armies were
thrown into the fight around Kelesse,
where the battle ragged fercest
Kslimandja and Tundja are reported
to have been taken by the Turks at
the point Of the bayonet
While the kilograms received here in
dinated that the Turks We're having no
difficulty in routing the Burgarians, ex-
perts here did not regard the messages
as conclusive and expressed belief that
it might be 4s hours before the news of
the battle would be known.
1t was pointed out that Bulgarian re-
treat may not have been forced-the
Bulgarian generals may have decided to
occupy strategic points in their rear.

the rebel artillery was being planted on
the heights skirting the western side Of
the city.
Agents of General Diaz. who had ap-
preached Beltram with overtures to
join the rebel cause, reported to their
chief today and Immediately aftervarI
reports were circulated that Beltram
had renowned his allegiance to the Ma
dero government and was ready to join
the march on Mexico City.
Loyalty of many of the 1900 troops
under Beltram was in question, while
the federal commander realized that he
could not depend upon the Mexican war
ships in the harbor to cooperate if d
general attack on this city was started.
Following the thirty sailors who de-
serted and swan ashore and joined
Diaz last night. twenty others landed
today and joined the rebels

The troops under the opposing gen
erals in and outside of Vera Cruz ag-
gregate about 5000 men. The boats in
