FINDS HIS MOTORCYCLE
IN HOLD OF SCHOONER
FRANK MALLARD RECEIVERS HIS
MACHINE ABOARD VESSEL
AT TERMINALS.

Frank Mallard, the well known lum-
herman, as well as members of the
police force, are endeavoring to find
cut who stole Mr.. Mallard's hand
some motorcycle, took it to pieces.
and without being noticed placed it
aboard the schooner George w. IEllzey
now mGored at the A. b. Il A ter
mlnals and about ready for sea.
Though the motorcycle was found
in the hold Of the schooner and
though it took the entire crew to
get 1t out not a member of the crew
knew anything as TO how the machine
got there 1t seems that the motor
cycle was taken from the powerhouse
at the terminals Tuesday. One of the
dock hands happened to see it secure
ly stored away in the lower hold of
the vessel. 1t had been taken to
pieces carefully tied UP and was
ready for sea voyage to New York
when Mr.. Mallard after missing the
machine was told by a dock hand
that he had seen 1t aboard the yes
sell
When Mr.. Mallard boarded the
schooner and inquired about the mo-
torcycle not person on board knew
a thing about it. They didn't know
when or how it got there The cap
tain of the schooner was not in port
at the time consequently Mr.. Nal.
lard had warrant issued for the
mate and he was arrested and placed
in jail and will be given a Brelimi-
nary trial this morning The mate
was held as he was in charge Of the
schooner.
Just who stole the machine and
placed it aboard the schooner is not
known, but it Is thought that some
member of the crew, thinking he had
a good chance to get away with it,
went to the power house and secur-
ed it Monday night and thought he
had it securely hidden. Just who
stole the machine will probably be
brought out in the trial today.

HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE
HEARS REPORT OF DEPART
MENT OF JUSTICE.
SAY He FAVORED SON-IN-LAW
Various Charges Have Been Brouoht
Against the Georgia Judaei the
Fast Few Years and the Attorney
General Brought Present Report.

washington, Aug. 20.-The House
Judiclary committee assembled in a
secret session today to hear a report
oon an investigation by the DEPART
ment of justice upon the conduct of
Federal Judge Emory Speer of the
Fifth Circuit.
various charges against the Geor-
gia judge have been. brought during
the last three or four years, but the
investigation of which Attornty Cen
eral McReynolds was to present a
reort today has been conducted dur
ing the past year by government spe-
cial agents.
Judge Speer, in a recent nublic
speech denounced what he character
lzed as the espionage of Federal
agents upon judges and Senator Bor
ah recently charged in the senate
that Feedral agents had harrassed
judges by investigations to influence
Their action in cases in which the
government was interested.
Three Judges Investigated
The department of justice has in
Vestlgated three judges within the last
hVe years. Robert w. Archibald of
the commerce court, was one and he
was impeached. The nature of the
report of the department of Justice
agents OF Judge Speer was withheld
today pending its presentation to the
Judiciary committee which has the
power to dispose of it by letting it
pass or by framing articles of i'm
peachment for presentation to the
House
After a long executive session the
committee, through Chairman CLAY
ton, issued statement SAYING that
the department of justice had trans
mltted report of one of it's special
examiners bearing upon Judge Speer's
case, and that the committee had not
finished it, having made an examina-
ton OF only a portion of the exhibits
and other papers.
Committee Takes Recess.
The committee the statement ad-
ded, has nothing to say except tn at
1t took recess until 10 o'clock Mon
day, August 25, when they will give
the matter further consideration and
Will assoc n as possible, determine
what, if anything the committee
should do with respect to such re-
ports and papers,
The charges are said also to in
clude allegations that Judge Speer
appointed his son-in-law as executor
OF certain estates and permitted him
him to charge exorbitant fees.

improvements.

which will probably be agreeable to
them.
One or two ther matters were also
handled at the meeting. Deeds were
given to the A. B. & A, railroad Gov

plant Of the Yaryan naval stores com

APPLY FOR A WRIT .
OFHABEAS CORPUS
A Representative OF
WHITE WAY CO. IN CITY
MADE QUITE AN ATTRACTIVE
OFFER TO LOCAL MERCHANTS
YESTERDAY.

Walker Reynolds, representing the
Union toundry Company, of Annis-
ton, Ala, manufacturers of white way
equipment spent yesterday in Bruins
wick, and while here conferred with
a number of the local merchants in
connection with the erection of Bruins
wick's white way which now seems
to be taxing definite shape.
Mr.. Reynolds represents the com
pany which makes the well known
Southern Beauty Standards" the
posts which are now used by a ma
jority of tn large white ways in the
south and which are manufactured at
Admission. The representative came
here for the purpose of furnishing
the material for the white way in
the event the present plans materi-
alize and it is safe to predict that
when the way is put up that the
material manufactured by this COM
pany will be decided upon.
Merchants who discussed the prop
sition with Mr.. Reynolds stated
that his proposition was a very lber-
al one and that the prices he offer
could not be equalled by any other
concern. In this connection it will
be of interest locally to know that
rapid progress is being made looking
to the establishment of the white
way, and that it may be a certainty
within the next two months.

SAD DEATH OF BOB GAsK|N
RECALLS ONE OF MAI. COLE
STRANGE SIMILARITY IN TAKING
AWAY FIVE MEN WHO WE'RE
WARM FRlEEDS

The tragedy, for tragedy 1t was,
that brought to an end the life of
Bob" Gaskin, as he was known to
hundreds OF Brunswick friends,
brings to mind the death of Mai. O..
w. Cole, which occurred in almost
the same manner some three years
ago. Maj Cole, like Mr.. Gaskin, was
bookkeeper for the same wholesale
house, he had the same rooms which
MIR. Gaskin used up to his death, was
stricken in the same club, at the same
hour Of the night. Strangely enough
these two men were warm personal
friends and the one followed the 9TH
er in almost an identical way to the
grave. They occupied the same
wards in the City Hospital, were al
tended by the same physicians and
died of the same malady, approx
mately at the same hour of the morn
ing, about two O'Clock.
Fate indeed has played a remark
able part in the lives of 0. w. Cole
and H. Gaskin. Both were popular
with a circle of acquaintances, both
were hail fellows well met with these
friends liberal, of good cheer, rotund
and happy, they counted their friends
in large numbers and yet the last sad
moment, both were called to eterni-
ty by the same routei
The incident is remarkable and yet
there is a pathos in it that must ap-
peal to those who stop to think.

Sherbrooke, Quebec. Aug. 20.
-Appication for a writ of ha-
beas corpus requiring the pres
ence of Harry X. Thaw in the
Superior Court at Sherbrook,
was granted by Judge GIobensh-
ky in his chambers this after
noon. The writ is returnabe at
10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
There was no procedure in
open court. Thaw's lawyers, led
Charles D. White, submitted the
petition to the court in private,
then announced that it had been
granted. Meantime in the court
room a restless crowd craned
necks and perspired, only to de-
part in chagrin when the news
spread that Thaw would not ap-
pear and that the legal battle in
the open would not begin until
tomorrow.

Sherbrooke, Quebec, Aug 20.-Ap-
plication for writ of habeas corpus
demanding the immediate release of
Harry h. Thaw, fugitive slayer of
Sanford White, was submitted this af-
ternoon to Judge Globenesky in the
Superior court at Sherbrooke, by
Charles D. White, a lawyer retained
by telegraph over night by Thaw's
family.
The move regarded at first as a
formality to bring Thaw into court,
after his arrest yesterday as a fugi-
tive from Matteawan, was subse-
quentlyxexplained by his counsel as
being more significant. They con-
tended that he has been detained ill
egally, and that through habeas cor
pus he should be free at once.
The court announced that it would
take the matter under consideration
at. 2:30 o'clock. Should it grant the
application arguments to sustain the
writcould be heard later, probably
tomorrow, possibly not until next
week.
Thaw Refuses to Talk.
Meanwhile Thaw remained Sc
cluded prisoner in the Sherbrooke
Jail.
Cautioned by his family he refus-
es to discuss his case. Only his law
yers saw him. From the hospital
ward of the prison, with two guards
watching him, he sent out for cigars,
fresh linen and delicacies but he re-
fused steadfastly to receive inter-
viewers! even barring ''old friends"
who hcd reported his murder trials,
and subsequent court battles.
Sheriff Hornbeck, of Duchess coun-
ty, New York, where Matteawan is To-
Gated reached here this afternoon,
armed with the warrant issued at
Poughkeepsie charging Thaw with
conspiring with Keeper Barnum, and
five other men to obtain Thaw's re.
lease.
The sheriff said he would bde his
time until the Superior court had ta-
ken action.
Sentiment Favors ThaW.
Sentiment in Sherbrooke is distinct
ly in Thaw's favor A great crowd
which greeted him at the station
when he arrived from Coaticook
shouted: ~
Let him go! Set Him Free! He
hasn't done anything lo us Give him
chance"
There were, by count, eighteen wo
men in the courtroom today. They
were well-dressed well-mannered and
quiet The drag in the proceedings
got on everybody's nerves toward II
o'clock, but still the Judge had not
emerged from his chambers.
