RECORD CROWD EXPECTED
TO GO FROM AMERICUS
TO View Inauguration Exercises al
Washington.

A larger number of Americas pei.
pie will go to Washington witness the
inauguration ceremonies next week
than has ever attended a similar oc-
casion. In addition to the military
company, the Light Infantry, which
will leave Saturday, many citizens and
a number of ladies will go to the ma
tional capital. In addition to the in
terest attending the inauguration of q
democratic president, the very reduc-
ed rate of $1585 on both railroads
here, Americas to Washington and re-
turn, is proving an incentive to many
here to make the trip north, and at Il
time when there is so much to be
seen.

GAME LAW
ENFORCED
in SUMTER
WRITES A LETTER
To State Game and Fish
Commissioner Mercer

1t is the belief of County Game
Warden McMath that the state game
law is being enforced in Sumter coun-
ty, even though it may be violated in
other sections of southern Georgia.
Mr. McMath has written a letter 20
State Game and Fish Commissioner
Mercer to that effect.
The recent statement by Mr. Mercer
to the effect that violations of the
game law are more numerous in
southern than in northern Georgia led
to the writing of the letter. Mr.. Nc
Math believes that the game law is
being enforced here He believes that
tire are comparatively few violations
Of it.
AS to the other counties of this sec
ton Mr. McMath is not informed. Ii
is his belief, however, that the far
greater number of doves and quail in
this section and the consequent great
er number of hunters has led the state
game and fish commissioner to be-
lieve that there are a greater number
Of violations of the law here than IL
the northern part of the state.

JEALOUSY MAY KILL SUCCESS
OF MULHALL CHARGES PROBE
Washington, July 12.-Jealousy
between the Senate and House lobby
committees and petty politics threat
en- the success of the, general inquiry
into the MuIhaH charges.
With the Mulhan papers and Null
hall himself in the hands of the Over
man Senate Committee, the House
Committee, under the leadership of
|. Chairman Garrett, is moving heaven
and earth to checkmate the Over
man inquiry. .....
The result so far is that the Over
man Committee was forced to meet
at a. m. today after swearing Null
hall at a night session and to tell
Mulhall to utterly disregard House
subpoena served on him last night.
This subpoena was served imme-
diately after the OVeTman Commit
tee had recessed until 1890 o'clock
this morning, and commanded Null
hall to appear before the House Com
mittee at o'clock this morning.
AS soon as the Overman Commit
tee heard of this, they yanked Null
hall back, told him to pay no atten-
ton to the House Committee, and
changed their hour of assembling this
morning from 1920. to 9 a. m.
New MulhaH letters showing Null
hall in the unenviable light of a pol

INTENSE BITTERNESS SHOWN IN
CRlSPWELL MURDER CASE

Wilkesbarre, Pa, July 12.-AldeT-
man Brown last night held Herbert
Johns of this city to answer the
charge of numbering Alice Crispwell,
his sweetheart, on the night of July
4 at Harvey's Lake.
District Attorney John H. BigelOw
this morning went into court and de-
manded permission to eXhume the
body of Alice CTispwell and make an
other examination of it.
He represented to the court that
the coroner had not done his duty
i.nthe first examination of the body,
and that the coroner's physician had
examined the body only for a mo-
tive for the crime and had not asceT-
tanned the cause of death.
The court is expected to hand
down a decision on the request for
the exhuming of the body late today.
The case is now causing the most
intense bitterness among persons
here who know Johns and the Crisp
well family and the cOttagers of Har-
vey's Lake. --.'
When it was rumOred last night
that District Attorney Bigelow in
tended to exhume the body of the
slain girl secretly, friends of the
CrispweIls Immediately offered them
selves as a vigilance committee to
guard the girls grave. Watch is said
to have been kept over the grave all
last night.
The decisio nOf Aid. Brown that
the county detectives made out a
prima facie case against Johns has
added to the bitterness between the
district attorneys and cOroner's Of
flee, which was in no wise lessened
by Bigelow's remarks as to the cor
oner's ineficieney in court this morn
ing.
Many persons take the stand that
the case against Johns is too thin to
stand, and that anyhow there has
