Judge Godbee had been through
the bankruptcy courts, and could not
own property in his own name.
Only Trustee.
1t is said that everything he pos
sessed was owned under the name
of Walter S. Godbee, trustee"
His estate is worth good many
thousands Of dollars.
The suit will be brought to COM
bat the will left by Judge Godbee,
in which he left all his property to
Miss Margaret Godbee of Augusta,
his daughter by his first wife.
Attorneys for Mrs. Godbee and her
children will claim that the term,
walter S. Godbee, trustee, means
that he was trustee for his former
wife and his children, f. w. Godbee,
King Godbee and Miss Sarah God
bee.
The condemnation of Mrs. Edna
Godbee to life Imprisonment Will
have no effect upon the plans which
had already been made to bring suit
to gain possession of the Godbee es-
tate.
A Pauper.
Mrs. Edna Godbee was referred to
by Judge Saffold in his argument be-
fore the jury as "a pauper," and
, while she may not be absolutely
without funds it is known that she
is in straitened financial circum-
stances, and that she has little or
nothing left of the handsome legacy
from her fathers estate.
When it became necessary for Mrs.
Godbee to secure funds with which
to make her defense for her life she
had a life interest in the old Perkins
home place at Perkins, Ga, in addi-
ton TO her home at Millen, which is
heavily burdened with mortgages, so
it is understood, and Mrs. Godgee
signed away her life interest to her
sisters and brothers to secure ready
money to employ lawyers.

ATLANTA, Gd.-1n6 proposal 10
grant a full pardon and freedom to
man convicted of murder and SEN
fenced to be hanged, and whose sem
tence has been confirmed by the high
est court after consideration of the
evidence. is so unusual and eXtraor-
binary that this action of the prison
commission in the case of DR.. w. j.
McNaughton, now in Chatham coun-
ty Jail, under such sentence of death,
has excited widespread interest as
well as curiosity as to what will be
the ultimate outcome of the case.
This is the first case on record
where the state prison commission.
since it became by law a pardon
board, has recommended pardon for
a man sentenced to death for MUIR
der or any other crime. There are
numerous cases where the death SEN
tence has been committed to life i'm
prisonment, and there are some
where, after service of few years
upon life sentence the defendant
mas been pardoned or paroled.
OF course Governor Slaton is in no
sense bound by the prison commits
sion's recommendation 1t is a re-
concentration only, ana Vt does not
relieve the governor from the duty OF
going through all the evidence and
probably granting a hearing to the
lawyers on either side before reach
ing a decision. Since the governor
has to go all over a case any way it
has been suggested that the best plan
would be simply to provide him with
pardon clerk, who might arrange
the evidence and other documents in
most convenient form for his consid-
Grafton.
Will Grant Hearing.
In DR.. McNaughton' case it has
already been announced that Gov
ernor Slaton will grant hearing
The date of it however will not be
set until ne mas udu d lulI oppOl IL
nifty to familiarize himself with the
evidence. 1t will be held within the
next ten days, and the governors de-
cision will be reached about October
1st.
There will naturally be much spec
ulation as to what Governor SlatoT
will do. He has it within his power
to let the sentence of death stand
but in view of the fact that the pris
on commission is a unit against the
death sentence and that two OF its
three members want full pardon
granted, this possibility may be elm
mated altogether. The case is one
! in which there have been interesting
developments since the trial, not the
least of which was the refusal Of the
state to try Mrs Matte Flanders az
an accessory to the murder of hel
husband, Fed Flanders, after she mac
been indicted as a co-conspirator II

interesting argument which the par
don board makes is that il one OF tive

100000 POUND MORE BEEF
LAST THREE MONTHS SEE BIG
INCREASES IN INIPORTATONS.
Expected to BE Heavier Under New
Tariff, and New Ship Lines VIII
BE InauguFated.

Enormous increase in the amount
of foreign beef is noted by the bu-
reau of foreign and domestic com
merce, which has announced that the
imports of such meats during June.
July and August Appropriated three
million pounds.
The most of this great volume of
supplies came from Australia and
Argentina. 1t nearly equals for the
three months the amount brought
into the United States during the
entire fiscal year ending May 31st
last
Prices Low.
The meat ranges in cost from sew
en- to ten cents a pound in the coun-
try of origin. To this, of course, is
added the transportation and other
charges and the customs duty of one
and one-half cents a pound.
1t is expected that the importa-
tions of beef will be increasingly
heavy throughout the present fiscal
year, especially with the passage OF
the pending tariff bill and the re-
moval of duties from meat importa-
tons.
With the growth of the trade more
lines of refrigerator ships VIII be in
augurated, and arrangements now
are being made, it is understood, to
establish several such lines through
American capital.

to sustain his charge that the recent
sharp decline in the value OF United

most wholly to what appears TO have

to help defeat the proposed currency
measure.

Talks on
|Butternilk
NO, 4.

Iactone butter1nilk is made
from n milk ferment prepared by
the greatest manufacturing phar-
macists in the world. 1t contains
Tactic acid bacilli which work ma
turally in sweet milk with exactly
the same effect as in the home
made kind The germs have been
isolated and preserved in tablet
form so that the buter1nilk pro-
due is, scientifically speaking, pre-
cisely the same as the sort that
mother used to churn.
There are, however, several
kinds of Tactic acid germs. Some
are highly beneficial to the diges-
ton, others less so and still 9TH
ers that are positively detrimental.
The farm butter1nilk contains all
sorts, but Lactone is made only
from the particular bacilli which
has been proven to have eotraorSi-
mary health-giving properties.
Iactone tastes better than the
homemade kind because it hasn't
that bitter twang that often crept
into the churned product. 1t
beats creamery buttermilk because
It Is heavier and more nutritious.

Nothing in News to Indicate

tCopyr,ght, 1912. by The New York
j. Evening Post Company
NEW YORK, Jan. 27,-It might be
said OF today that all semblance OF
activity ceased on all the great stock
exchanges Of the world At New York
there could scarcely be said to have
been any movement OF prices. Until
noon 1t was declared that the market
was waiting for the decision on the
Minnesota rate cases" and after noon,
when the supreme court had adjourn
cd without any decision on. those
cases. IL Was remarked that nothing
was left with which TO promote activ-
ity. Abroad the various financial
markets appeared TO be gazing at the
Constantinople imbroglio, without the
least idea what to think OF II. Even
in the case of securities of the belli-
gerent states. there were both ad-
yances and declines. II was, in short,
a day OF suspended financial anima-
tion.
Such halt ordinarily means that
the familiar influences, lately govern
ing the course of values, have largely
ceased to operate, that some new In
fiuence must force Its way into rec
ognition before any definite movement
can reasonably be expected. The stock
exchange usually reasons, at such
times, that the halt means that the
market has either been "sold 10 a
standstill" or bought to standstill'
the customary inference being that
the next movement should be in op-
posite direction.
IL might be puzzling to say, however,
what is the opposite direction In Eur
ope. prices have behind them silent
decline and a partial recovery. Here
at New York. prices are Is points or
so below recovery. Here at New
York, prices are Is points or so below
last autumns highest, yet one TO four
roints above the lowest OF this month.

that could interest the financial pub
