McNaughton Fights
Desperately for Freedom.

McNaughton has hoped so positively
that he never would go to his death on
the gallows that his fight for freedom.
communication of sentence-anything but
death-has been the most marvellous in
the history of Georgia courts. The des-
perate and adroit manenr in which every

bubble is unparalleled in this state.
Second only in interest to McNaugh-
toms long fight is the story of the crime.
The relations between the Flanders
couple and McNaughton have never
been explained Fred Flanders was a
prosperous farmer in Emanuel county.
His kin were wealthy, numerous and
prominent, McNaughton was a young
physician of Swainsboro.
At the death Of McNaughton's wife
Flanders disposed OF his farm and he
and his wife came to Swainsboro to
live with McNaughton. For two wears

CREEKS CREDITORS
HUNT FOR $4,000 HE
HAD BEFORE FAILING

Captain Kidds hidden treasure is not
more diligently sought than are the assets
of Peter Demopoolos. Greek proprietor
of Luckie street refreshment stand that
went smash a week ago. Peters creditors
know that just before the petition in
bankruptcy was filed he had something
like $500 DIN cash, which has disappeared,
and to unearth which an appeal has been
made to the United States court
Peter Demopoolos declares that 81, 200
OF his money went to the Greek govern
ment to purchase for him absolution from
serving IN the war against Turkey. and
that the remainder was sent to his moth
er. This the creditors refuse 10 believe,
declaring that no record of the dispatch
of the money IS ayailabye. Peter admits
it, but says that he sent the money in
care of Georfe Demopulos, his partner,
who went to war.
In the United SPates court this morning
Demopoolos offered SIS as salve to his
creditors who are looking for 50 600 or
more. Peter was put under bond.

SPEER RAPS RULE.
FOR TRUST CASES
Georgia Federal Judge Declares
Order Restricting Grand Juries
Unconstitutional.

MACON GA, Jan. 15-The rule Of
the United States attorney general :
Office which prohibits Federal grand
juries from taking the initiative IN the
investigation or violations Of the inter-
state commerce and antitrust laws,
was severely criticised by Judge Emory
Speer today. He said he intended no
personal reflection on Attorney General
Wickersham. whom he termed an able
and learned patriot, but he declared the
rule was unconstitutional, un-Ameri-
can and calculated to favor tire viola
tors of those laws.
A grand jury for this division OF the
United States court for the Southern
district Of Georgia was sworn in and
charged at length by Judge SpeeI to-
day.

Condemned Man
Begins Long Fight.

On October 10 McNaughton was
found guilty of the poisoning Of Fred
Flanders and sentenced to hang on
December 8.
Then began the condemned mans r..
markable legal battle. He lost mo.
ton for new trial in the Emanuel cour+
In January, 1911, lie went to the su-
preme court on a bill of exceptions. onIg
to ind that the high tribunal affirmed
the verdict Of the trial court. He wac
refused a new hearing in the state SUI
preme court in August Of the same
year
He still struggled desperately. The
following winter he took an appeal 10
the United States supreme court. only
to withdraw IT, before hearing. to file
an extraordinary motion in the state
court This, too, failed but by
a peculiar kinll in the law 1t meant that
the man must be resentenced. His ex
ecution was set for April 10. 1872. Still
fighting, McNaughton brought an ez-
traordinary motion in the superior
court. only to lose again.
" ME lhls was being heard his sen.
tence was stayed and with the fna
case lost. his attorneys turned to the
prison board and the governor as a las.
resort and won partial victory.
The chief executive was told that the
woman never had been brought to trial
and insisted that her case was bound
to reveal new evidence On this plea
the governor granted McNaughton an
indeterminate respite.
So the arraignment which takes place
in Emanuel court today means not only
the trial of Mrs. Fred Flanders for tbs
completely in the killing of her hus-
band, but also the life or death OF Me.
Naughton. On it's outcome he is pin
ming all there is left of his hopes. New.
er for moment has he admitted or by
demeanor exhibited. doubt that hs

McNaughton s Fate
Hinges on Woman S Trial.

Upon the verdict in the trial of Mrs
Matte Flanders hangs the fate of Dr.
McNaughton. He lives now only under
the sufferance of Governor Browns
respite, given on the argument that
the trial Of the woman might develop
some shred of evidence upon which the
convicted man could base a motion for
a new trial
If the evidence of the state against
Mrs. Flanders is identical with that
which convicted McNaughton and the
court passes sentence on the woman,
McNaughton will go to the gallows
without further delay
But should the woman's defense re-
veal facts heretofore unearthed and
the jury should free Mrs. Flanders of
the charge of murder, McNaughton will
renew his two-year fight in the Georgia
courts.
Despite the fact that McNaughton
has trailed his case through the highest
courts of Georgia and to the threshold
Of the United States supreme court, the
famous Swainsboro mystery, in which
Fred Flanders died, still is unsolved
AIInOuBH Ut. MCNdugHL0n was con-
victed of Flanders murder on evidence
which has withstood all the attacks of
subsequent court actions, and Mrs.
Flanders has been indicted for compile
ity in the strange and sudden death OF
her husband, neither man nor woman
has admitted a detail
she never should have been arrest
ed" was McNaughton' remark on De-
eember 10. 1910. when he was told that
Mrs. Flanders had been admitted to
bail
And Mrs. Flanders mas adhered TO
her original statement that her husband
died natural death-of acute nephri-
| tis-of which DR.. McNaughton spoke
when he was first accused Of more
| than a mere physicians knowledge of
Flanders death.
Not damaging word has escaped
either in two long years, while the en-
tire state has watched McNaughton'
battles to save his neck. The real story
of the mysterious case has never been
written or told

MRS. FLANDERS GOES To
TRIAL A S SLA YER OF HER
HUSBAND: della Y Likely

SWAINSBORO, GA, Jan. 15-After
more than two years Of delay, Mrs.
Matte Flanders. accused OF completely
in the killing Of her husband, Fred
Flanders, for whose murder DR. W. J.
McNauglton has been condemned to
die, was called to trial in Emanuel su-
perior SQUIRT today.
With relatives Of the slain man eager
10. push the prosecution. J. Alex. Smith.
attorney for Mrs. Flanders, intimated
that he would seek Il poetponement.
Smith declared that the defense was
not completed since an arraignment
mad not been expected at this term az
court
The case was to be called this after
noon and it was generally believed
would be put over until April.
Mrs. Flanders line Of defense has not
been revealed, but she will cling con-
sistently to the assertion that she had
no knowledge Of poison being in the
medicine administered to her sick hus-
band by pr. McNaughton. What new
facts concerning the case will be de
veloped by the defense is a matter of
conjecture.
No arrangements were made today to
bring DR.. McNaughton from his Savan-
nah cell, owing to the insistence OF the
defense that the postponement was GER
tain. Should the examination Of wit
nesses begin this afternoon, DR.. Nc
Naughton will be brought to SWANS
bOro at once.
In his cell in Savannah, where he
had been for two years. directing the
fight to save his neck McNaughton
grasped anxiously at every thread OF
news from the trial. He said positively
that Mrs. Flanders would be freed.
