WOMAN'S HISTORY Barred:

Mrs J. A. Appellants most init
mate Atlanta friend, woman who for
obvious reasons would not consent to
her name being used, today threw
startling new light on Appelbaums
mysterious death for which Mrs. APP
pelbaum is now held in jail on a charge
of murder. with a detailed account Of
her close association with Mrs. Appel
baum up to the night before the trag-
edy.
The Georgian is thus enabled today
to throw a startling flood of light on
the past history of the accused woman,
who has attempted to veil her life.
This friend declared that Mrs. Appel
baum, constantly depressed with do
nestle troubles, idealized Mrs. Daisy
Ople Grace. the central figure in the
sensational shooting mystery to which

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6-Represen-
tative Murray, Of Massachusetts, and
Sergeant at Arms H. W. Ketron, Of
Gainesville. Ca. INDUCED in a fist fight
on the floor of +he house today. This
is how it happened;
In the turmoil following the vote on
the battleship question Representative
Murray ascended to the speakers desk
and kept shouting parliamentary in

Alexander. Of Missouri. The chair re-
fused to listen to Murray and told him
to go to his seat

Murray. 81 have right here"
THE sergeant-at-arm will remove

der
Deputy Ketron assembled the platform
and threw Murray down three steps.
Then Ketron and Murray engaged in
a fist fight until they were sepa rated by
their friends Representative F1tzger-
aid, of New York, and Representative
Shirley, of Kentucky who has lame
leg, grabbed Murray and pinioned his
arms until the excitement cooled off.
Deputy Ketron, known wherever
football is played in the South as "Ket''
KetroIi. was one Of the greatest football
players in the South during his days
at the University of Georgia. He
played in the line, and was a terror in
opening up holes and tackling runners.
Since leaving college, he has returned

No more dramatic scene has

baum constantly thought and talked
about her. She asserted to me again
and again that Mrs Grace was her

woman who had a bad husband who
was untrue knew how to sympathize
with her. She believed that Mrs. Grace
shot her husband and that her act was

GEORGIANS FACE
FLYPAPER PERIL

Unless the state railroad commission
comes to the rescue and pulls the man
ufacturers out of a bad hole, the COM
mon people of Georgia soon will be face
to face with the increased cost of-fly-
paper peril!
A failure upon the part of the rail-
road commission to arise to the siren
uous demands of this crisis would be
fine business for the manufacturers of
wire fly swatters. window screens, pois-
onous insect powders anG deadly traps,
but 1t would put those who have to de-
pend upon ny paper alone at ire
mendous disadvantage in the gentle art
Of sidestepping the germs, bacilli and
bacteria flies most generally do spread.
w. S. Rogers & Co., of Atlanta,
backed by an imposing array of law
vers and numerous stockholders, APP
reared before the railroad commission
today and explained all of this to that
honorable body 1t was pointed out by
the Atlanta concern, which manufac-
lures fly paper on tremendous scale,
that there is now no carload rate on
their commodity in Georgia, and that,
as a consequence, they have to ship
under the high rate permitted to limited
shippers. and this, the claim is they
can not get away with and make a
profit
I'VE feel" explained the president of
the company to the commission today,
that this business Of ours means much
to the state from a sanitary standpoint.
Our commodity is used in places where
ordinary destructive agencies applied
to flies fail to produce the desired re
suits. Also, certain people use fly paper
who would make no attempt whatever
TO get rid Of flies. if the price of sticky
paper is not kent down. We can not
make the ny paper. and distribute it
as we should. unless we can get living
freight rate. and that We hope the COM
mission viii award us"
The commission has the matter I'M
der advisement. and the impression is
that the order establishing carload
rate on fly paper will issue shortly.

She would not disclose her identity

Mr.. Branch had appeared this after

take Mrs. Appelbaum from the Tower

body of her slain husband.
