LIBEL SUITS
CONSIDERED
BY GRAND
] j R Y

Developments in the somewhat
stangant Fielder Lanford photograph
controversy of unsavory fame took a
startling turn Friday when the Grand
Jury began action looking to the in
dictment of both Chief of Detectives
Newport Lanford and Colonel Thorn
as B. Fielder on charges of criminal
libel. Assistant Solicitor Stephens is
handling the cases.
The accusation against both men
is based on determinations issued
against each other and published in
the Sunday newspapers of May %
and June s.
IN those statements Colonel Fielder
attacked Lanford bitterly, hurting a
line of invectives that the greatest
Of the Roman orators might have
~envied. lie attacked Lanford's pri-
vate and public character, accusing
him of ''hideous crimes"
Lanford in Full Denial
Chief Lanford replied in kind, de-
nouncing Colonel Fielder as con
temptible liar, scoundrel and cow
ard He denied absolutely any
wrong doing
To establish the fact that the
statements published had actually
been made by Fielder and Lanford, the
Grand Jury summoned Sidney Or
mond. city editor of The Constitu-
ton, and NJ. D. Clofne, city editor
of Hearst's Sunday American. Both
men testified that there could be no
question that Fielder and Lanford is
sued the statements in question.
The new turn in the photograph
fight was entirely unexpected and
promises stirring developments. If
the charges are upheld and the two
men formally accused, the real fight
will come at the trial, when it will be
up to both Lanford and Fielder to
prove the charges they made against
each other.
Real Revelations Promised.
That will bare the real inside of
the photograph trap and other things
that have been rumored in the last
few weeks, and some real explosions
are anticipated.
Suopenas also have been issued out
of the Solicitor Generals office for
other witnesses who engaged in the
controveI 81 at a time when charges
and countercharges were flying thick
and fast. 1t is the announced inten-
ton of the Grand Jury to probe care
fully and thoroughly into Colonel Eel
der's charges of alleged crookedness
in the detective department.
1t is rumored in the Hobbies of the
courthouse that the investigation of
the Fielder charge will in time de-
velop into another and more search
ing inquiry into the vice situation
in Atlanta Colonel Felder's charges
have been based on the alleged pro-
lection of resorts by Chief Lanford
and his detectives, which have been
as vigorously denied.

BEGUN
On GRADE
CROSSING
Pc RIL

An aggressive movement to abolish
railroad grade crossings in Georgia
has been inaugurated in the present
Legislature.
It will be backed vigorously by a
number Of the strong men Of the
House. headed by Representative John
P. Cheney, of Cobb. a legislator Of
force and large experience.
Mr.. Cheney, said to be slated for
the Craftsmanship Of the Western and
Atlantic Railroad Committee. is per
haps the best posted man in the
House on matters pertaining to rail-
roads, and the fact that he is to ia -
Their the movement for the abolitio on
of grade crossings has been accepted
by the House membership as mean
ing that the movement has a good
chance Of being carried to a success
! full conclusion.
The gentleman from Cobb will en-
deavor to divide the cost Of providing
underpasses and overpasses, where
they may be deemed necessary, equi-
tably and fairly between the roads
and the counties or municipalities
wherein the dangerous crossings are
located, and it will be the purpose of
the measure to inaugurate the con-
structive work gradually and within
the bounds of reason, in so far as the
cost Of the same is concerned.
Thinks Expense Justified.
It is realized that the matter of
putting in underpasses and overpasses
likely will prove to be very expensive,
but Representative Cheney thinks it
will be a paying proposition, not only
in the saving of human lives, but IN
the saving of real money for both
parties to the work
1t will be left to the Railroad Com
mission to designate such crossings
as are rated dangerous. and for it to
say further upon what terms the dan
gerous situations shall be remedied.
Mr.. Cheney believes that the rail-
roads, when they understand the full
import of his proposed measure, not
only will not fight it. but may be de-
pended upon to cooperate in it's en-
actment. And, whether that is so or
not, the gentleman from Cobb ex-
presses himself as determined to push
the matter TO a conclusion before the
present Legislature.
Assembly to Mark Time.
Neither the House nor the Senate
is expecting to do anything more than

Governor Browns final communica-
tons are all in, and every executive
appointment requiring the confirm

Strange curlosI,Ies Of Pain.

Pain sometimes behaves in a curl
Gus fashion. There was a soldier after
the Boer war, who complained of ex-
circulating neuralgia pains in his right
foot. This very much amused his
friends, for he had lost his right leg
The explanation was that the pain
happened to be in the trunks OF those
nerves, which had sent branches to
the foot. The other day a patient
went to a doctor complaining of pain
in the knee, and he was greatly sur
prised when the doctor told him that
the site of the affection is not the
knee but the hip. We are all familiar
with the pain under the shoulder blade
which comes from an afflicted liver
The stomach, too. can produce pain
I'm many parts of the body. A dis
ordered stomach will give US pain as
far away as the head, and, when one
gets a cramp In his toe, II Is often
due to acidity OF the stomach. Swallow
pinch of bicarbonate of soda and
the cramp will disappear. An aching
tooth will produce neuralgia pains In
the face, and very often a violent pain
at the back of the head Is due 10 the
faraway kidneys, which themselves
may suffer no pain at the time.
