him a pauper, went to the expense of

SLATON LOOKING INTO FEUD
Takes Up Investigation of the Diff
ferences Between General Nash
and Ouartermaster O'Bear.

ATLANTA, Dec. Ex-Governor
Slaton began this morning the final
and exhaustive Investigation that
will determine the status of the quar-
termaster generals office in the state
militia, and that will result either in
the abolition of Quartermaster Gen
eral OBear's job or the resignation
of Adjjutant General Van Holt Nash.
What the governors investigation
will show has not been predicted, but
one thing is certain, and that is that
there are one too many generals
in the state militia now, and that af-
ter the first of the year there will be
only one of them left.
Nobody is after General Nash's
head, but he has so strongly urged
the abolition of General O'Bear's Of
flee and the feeling between the two
officers has become so unpleasant
and strained that in the event O'Bear
is retained it is admitted that there
will be nothing left but for Nash to
resign.
