NEPHEWCLA|MS
ESTATE LEFT To
CHILD At DEATH
Three-Year Litigation in Berrien
= County Ends in Compromise
of Interesting Case.

VALDoSTA, Sept. 2o.-The suit of
j. A. Hutchinson, Of Cecil, Ga, to re-
cover the estate of his uncle, the late
John d, Hutchinson, from the admin
istrator, DIR. f. w. Schnauss, Of Vail
dosta, was settled in Berrien Supe-
rior Court at Nashville this week,
ending one of the most unusual and
interesting cases ever before the
courts of this section.
The fight for the estate, worth about
$4,000 began soon after the death
of John d. Hutchinson three years
ago, and in one shape and another
had gone through the Superior Court,
then to the Supreme Court, and back
again TO the lower tribunal. 1t finally
was compromised this week by an
agreement to let a receiver be ap-
pointed who is TO wind up the estate,
sell all of the property and divide 1t
half and half between the widow and
child of John D. Hutchinson on one
side and the nephew claimant, J. A.
Hutchinson, on the other side.
John D. Hutchinson, a prominent
farmer mill owner and merchant, so
years old and a bachelor, some years
ago took his nephew, J. Archer
Hutchinson. then a lad, to live with
him. promising. as claimed by the
latter. that If the boy would do so
and assist him in the management of
his business he would make him an
equal partner. giving him half of all
he possessed, effective then. and that
on his death j. Archer Hutchinson
would inherit his entire estate. The
elder Hutchinson probably at that
time never intended to marry, but he
did so later, and his widow gave birth
to a son few weeks after his death.
While on his death bed, realizing
that some provision should be made
for his wife and unborn child, Il is
claimed that he summoned his friend
and physician. DR. Schnauss, and ask
ed him to look out for his wife's in
terest and see that she received a just
proportion Of the estate. DR., SchnausS
applied for letters of administration
on the death of Mr. Hutchinson, which
appointment was fought by the neph
ew and the fight was taken into the
courts, finally resulting in the confir-
nation of DR. Schnauss as admins
traitor No will was left by the de-
| ceased. J. Archer Hutchinson, bas-
| ing his claims on the verbal promises
| made by his uncle. later entered suit
TO recover the entire estate from the
administrator.

80 CTS. BOUNTY
ON THE HEADS Of
Hawks AND OWLS
More Game and Birds Destroyed
by These Pests Than by Hunt
ers, Says Sportsman

AUGUSTA, Sept. 2O.-Former Chief
OF Police M. ]. Norris, one of the best
known sportsmen in this section Of
the country, believes that he has the
successful solution to the Georgia
game problem.
Mr. Norris says that the RESPONSE
bility for scarcity of game and birds
is laid almost entirely at the door of
the sportsmen who hunt wild game
1t is not 80 much the fault Of hunts
men as hawks and owls, according to
Mr. Norris, and he proposes that a
bounty OF so cents be placed on the
head Of each hawk and owl.
Great Destruction.
The distance between Augusta and
Savannah by the river is 2S8 miles,
said Mr.. Norris, "and a conservative
estimate places the number of hawks
and owls on the river alone at 1000
Each hawk and owl win eat at least
one squirrel. one young turkey. one
duck or one quail each week, and
with SO weeks in the year there are
$4,000 OF these game birds or fowls
eaten by the birds of prey mentioned
l believe that each hawk and owl will
come nearer eating bird or a SOUR
rel per day than only one per week
but the figures based on one being
consumed each week show how enor-
nous Is the destruction.
Bounty Attracts Negroes.
IF a bounty of so cents each wa.
placed on the heads OF hawks and
owls there would be great quantities
of them killed. Negroes, principally
would literally live in the swamps
The number of quail. squirrels duck
and wild turkeys, as we'll as other
game birds and animals, would in
crease rapidly and at the same time
the huntsmen could enjoy much bet
ter sport.
Doves. as well as quail, are eater
largely by hawks, and I have had ia
shoot the hawks away from dove
fields before the doves would come al
all.
The bounty could be paid from the
| funds secured by selling huntins
licenses and from fines and forfeiture.
| for violating the game laws"

AUGUSTA BARGE
LINE To START
WITH 100000
Threatened Cotton Rate Increase
All That Was Needed to Reiu-
venate River Traffic.

AUGUSTA. Sept. 2o.-The expert
ence Of Macon with hsr freight rates
has thrown a scare into Augusta
business men. and It is predicted that
the barge line fund viii be oversub-
gcrfbed within q few hours after the
trafIic committee starts out tomor-
row.
Augusta enjoys splendid rates be-
cause Of her position on the Savan-
nah River. Macon also enjoys favor
able rates because of her position on
the Ocmulgee, but several years ago
trafflc on that river was stopped. Tho
result was that the railroads raised
the rates and Macon is now handi-
capped.
The rate on cotton from Augusta
to Savannah is s1.05 per bale. The
rate on cotton from Macon to Savan-
nah is 50 per bale.
During 1911-1s12, when Georgia
made the greatest cotton crop in her
history, Augusta received $50, 900
bales. The largest export houses on
the Continent have agencies here, and
better prices are paid for cotton here
than elsewhere because Of the ia
vorable rate.
Augusta allowed the steamboat line
TO go into bankruptcy and traffic on
the river to stop. Then Colonel D. c.
Kingman. of the United States Corps
of Engineers, In charge of the Sa-
vannah River, issued a statement that
unless Augusta did something for the
river traffic he would not recommend
any additional appropriations for the
Savannah River, Then Augusta got
busy. 1t was at first thought the bet
ter plan would be to have more
eamboats, but this plan was dis
carded, as a barge line appeared to be
the best solution.
Colonel Kingman threw the great
est scare into Augusta business men
that they ever had, for they knew
that a discontinuance of traffic on the
river would be followed by a raise in
freight rates equally as high as the
rates which Macon has to stand for
because Of her failure to have traffic
on the Ocmulgee.
The barge line is now assured, for
although the traffic committee will
not start out until tomorrow morn
ing, still loyal citizens have indicated
their willingness to see to 1t that the
barge line company, with 100000
capital stock, is started at once.

COTTON MARKET TO
Be ON NEW FOOTING
Great Interest Will Be Had
in the Next Ginning
Report

New Orleans, December 1.-THE cot
ton market Will be on a new footing
this week. With the governments an
nual estimate of the crop out of the
way the trade will be able to think of
other things. The question of size of
this seasons crop will still be dis
puted but not In the same degree as
hitherto
Much interest will be taken in the
next report on ginning from the census
bureau. This report wfll carry the crop
down to last Friday, and will be issued
December 20. Bearishly inclined traders
who believe that the government has
under estimated the crop expect either
more cotton ginned in some sections
of the belt, or to point to larger
amounts of cotton ginned than the gov
ernment has estimated these sections
have grown. Such expectations are not
general. even among bears. but they
are entertained by a certain element
and will be a feature of the bearish
literature of the market during the
next few days. Should private bureau
forecasts on ginning be large enough to
selling pressure might result.
Bulls are confident that the coming
week will simply bring forth evidence
to corroborate the governments esti-
mate They expect this in private re-
ports from the belt in regard to pick

Grease in the demand from those buy
ers of actual cotton who have been
holding it out from the market because
they have given serious consideration
to the large demand estimate from pri-
vate suorces, which range, all the way
from 100000 bales up to 15,750,000
bales minimum. Should such an increase
in the demand take place, it could hard
ly help having favorable influence on
prices,
There seems to be little hope for any
great activity in the market in the near
future because of the approaching holi-
day period.
