MIR. DRENNEN
NEARLY FINISHED

Hubert Drennen, who handles the Cad
illacs in this state, and whose activities
have SO far failed to exempt him and the
Cadillacs from reasonable attention by
the public, has nearly completed his SELL
ing season. During the year he has been
unusually successful in handling the Cad
:llacs, and 1t is reasonable to suppose that
his order for the forthcoming season will
be larger than for the 1913 season. During
the year just passed the Drennen Motor
Car company's business has passed the
S1,t00.000 mark gross, and this Is going

in Birmingham. 1t is known that Mr..
nrennen sold over 129 Cadillac cars dur
ing the season not to mention the vast
profitable traffic in tires and equipment

Twin city to Glacier park tour for
the Glidden trophy, recalls the remark

York tour last year by the enthusiasts
tic young Hupmobile sportsman, How
ard l.. Watrous.
Last year the Glidden tour was un-
fortunately called off because of lack
of entries and Mr.. Watrous, who was
entered with a new "32" Hupmobile
roadster abandoned the idea of maxi
ing the trip and returned to Chicago
When he heard that Charles A. Glidden
and party were going TO make the trip
as a private tour, he Immediately de-
cided to join them and hurried back,
starting from Detroit by Way of Cleve-
land, three days late, he finally caught
up with the Gidden party at Nashville
after several days hard driving. Mr..
Watrous covered the abandoned Glid-
den road from Detroit to New Orleans
three days under schedule time, for
which he received a certificate of per-
feet score from the Governor of Louisi-
ana.

inquire Of every owner as to the opera

MULHALL GROWS HOT
Lobby investigation Still Full Of
Interest.

Representative ]. T. McDermott's s
defense to charges brought in the
house lobby investigation began yes
terday with cross-eSamination of Mar
tin H. Mulhall, author of the expose
which pictured the National Associa-
ton of Manufacturers as the maker
and breaker of many congressman.
Mulhall swore the New York World,
which published his story, was now
paying him 500 a week. His pas
sages with McDermott's lawyers were
fiery and sprinkled with invitations to
come outside" Cross examination
developed that on one recent visit to
the World office, Mulhall was accom-
panied by Senator Reed Of the senate
lobby committee.
G. G. West, private secretary to
McDermott, told the committee he did
not know Mulhall and branded the
latter's story Of the use Of secret
room" in the basement of the Capitol
as a headquarters for spies upon con-
gressmen as false.
Mulhall told Of trying to dispose of
his letters to William R. Hearst. Per-
riton Maxwell, editor Of one of
Hearst's magazines, told Mulhall the
only reason he could advance for
Hearst's lack Of interest was that he
thought it would help the present ad-
ministration.
Attorneys for McDermott declared
they wished to prove Mulhall's bias,
impugn his credibility and question
his accuracy and veracity. Chairman
Garrett said they would have all pos
sible latitude.
Mulhall was questioned closely
about his trip in the spring of 1912 to
help McDermott in his primary cam
ytyhn ho hn onanf fwanfv-
two days in Chicago and got back to
Baltimore on April 19. The $3.50
check from Harold F. Mccormick to
the McDermott fund which Mulhall
cashed in Baltimore, figured again in
the testimony. Attorney Smith, for
McDermott read a letter Mulhall
wrote to /. H. McMichael in June, in
which he referred to his return to Bal
timore on April 9.
That's the time you did get there,
Mr.. Mulhall," said Attorney Smith.
II want to state positively" said
Mulhall shaking his finger at the law
yer that mans a liar"
Chairman Garrett Of the committee,
ordered the remarks stricken from
the record and cautioned Mulhall to
refrain from using such language
Smith promised to produce witnesses
to swear that Mulhall caShed the $3.50
Mccormick check in Baltimore about
April 9.
Mulhall became angry again when
the lawyer pressed him for an expla-
nation of one of his expense accounts
referring to employment of a stenog-
rapher to do the work in the "secret
room" in the Capitol. The lawyer
asked him point blank if he had not
made out false account.
That's a dirty insinuation," shouted
Mulhall IF that gentleman don't
stop this I'll throw a glass at him
This is the second time he has insult
ed me-"
Mulhall admitted several discrepan-
cies in his testimony, but explained
them as being typographical errors :

- The sublime porte, says London
cable, has opened direct negotiations
with the Bulgarian delegate, M. Noch-
evitch. who has remained in Constan-
tinople since he went there at the out
break of the second war, to negotiate
an understanding with Turkey. 1t is
understood that the porte remains firm
with regard to AdrianOple and Kirk
Kilisseh, but is prepared to make con-
cessions i'm other quarters. Pierri Lott,
the French writer, under Constantine
pie date, sends the Daily Telegraph a
vivid story of his impressions on visit
ing Adranople and the surrounding
districts. Lott says: THE Bulgarians
have made of Thrace desert surpass-
ing in abOmination everything ! had
been told and all that i had imagined.
With what fury have these Christian
liberators worked in order to accom-
plish so much destruction in few
months!" He describes orgies and
massacres and violation and desecra-
tion in all the Turkish villages and as
serts that Adrianople itself only es-
capped by a miracle because the Turks
arrived a day earlier than was expect
ed and so defeated the Bulgarian plans
for a similar massacre there. M. Lott
confirms the story of several thousand
Turkish prisoners being herded on an
island and there allowed to starve to
death by Bulgarians, those who sur

WHO KILLED GIlES7
Foreman of the Coroner's Jury Makes
a Statement.


Editor Yorkville Enquirer:
saw an article in the last issue of
your paper under the title Of who
Killed Giles" The killing took place
at a negro gathering on the place OF
Mr.. w. c. Robinson instead of Mr.. w.
c. Thomson. was foreman of the cor
oner's jury which investigated the mat
ter at the time, and deem it duty l
owe the other members of this jury as
well as myself. that l should state a
few facts. According to the evidence
given at the inquest, Andrew Hard
wick was the guilty man. The majority
of the witnesses swore that Andrew
Hardwick fired the first shot at Wee
Giles and then stepped a little to one
side and fired four others in quick
succession. AS for Andrew Hardwick
protesting his innocence and holding
that the killing was done with .3S
calibre pistol while he was only oper-
ating with a 80, he did not testify at
the inquest at all. Some of the wit
nesses swore that Hardwick was using
his brothers pistol, which he had just
taken from his brothers pocket. This
pistol was a .3S calibre while his own
was a .32. The jury unanimously
agreed at the time that Wee Giles came
to his death by wounds inflicted with
.3S caliber pistol. He was shot four
times-three times in the body, and
once in the arm. DR.. Saye took the
bullet from his arm, which was .3S,
and said that the wounds in the body
were made by the same size bullets.
AS to John Henry If my memory
serves me right, there was not single
witness who testified that he fired a
shot, or even had a pistol. He swore
himself that when the shooting began
he took up little child and ran. The
jury is not surprised that .SS caliber
bullets were found when the body was
| taken up as they agreed at the time of
| the killing that he was shot with a 80
calibre pistol. 1 merely state these
facts that the jury may not be misun-
| derstood.
Very truly,
j. E. McAliley.
