IYey And Stone
Tried For Larceny

The case of the STATE versus
Wesley Ivey and Ed. Stone TO-
burglary and larceny was triet
this morning before Justice OF th'
Peace, William B. Moore.
Iyey and Stone were arrested
last night by Pinkerton detectives
in. Scott and D. 6. Williams, who
have been here several days inves'
tigating shortages in the funds OF
the Southern Express Company
IIvey and Stone are about 90 and
liz years of age respectively, and
were formerly employed by the
Express Company, holding subor-
dinate positions. They severed
their connection with the Company
about Jan. LIST. Mr.. Chandler,
agent, states that shortages have
occurred for about two months
past, the money having invariably
been taken from the safe Geo.
W. Cole, Route Agent of the Elk
press Company testified that the
shortage amounts to $445.73.
The evidence at the commitment
trial was rather scattered, practi-
callv the only evidence against the
boys being what they told on each
other.
They were bound over under
five hundred dollar bond to the
Superior Court.
Col. Otis H. Elklns represented
the Express Co. j. w. Haygood
defended Wesley Ivey. Ed. Stone
was unable to secure council.
Mr.. II. M. Smith, district su-
perintendent of the Southern Ex-

Taft FavOrs Killing
More Bachelor Seals

Washington, D. C.-President
Taft in a special message to con-
gress recommended the repeal
of the act of congress which pro-
hibited for FIVE years the killing
of fur seals in the Pribylof Is
lands, lpassed more than a year
ago. Investigation, the presi-
dent said, showed a remarkable
increase in the size of the herd
in one season and proved conclu-
sively that only the female seals
and the bull'seals need protection
and that thousands of bachelor
seals can be killed each year
without reducing the herd.
