JUDGE SPEER'S
RECORD
Inspector of Department of JUS
tice in Macon Investigating Of
fetal and Private Character.

MACON, GA, June 13.-The entire
official record of Judge Emory Speer
is being Investigated by special
agen. Of the Department Of Justice.
J. T. Lewis an assistant In the United
States Attorney Generals office, and
a personaI representative OF Attorney
General McReynolds. has been in Ma
con for a week engaged in this work,
Not only the official acts, but also
the personal character Of Judge Speer
is also being scrutnized. with the
view of determining if there is any
foundation for charges Of an tmpeach-
ment nature
Judge Speer is fully informed as to
the purpose Of the visit Of Inspector
Lewis to Macon.
Started by Huff Charges.
It is said that the investigation was
promoted by the charges made last
year by Colonel ". A. Huff, who has
since been found guilty for sending to
Judge Speer the letters which con.
tanned the accusations However the
HUFF civil case does not, il is said, fig
ure to any great extent in the IN
vestigation, the probe being concerned
with the judges record for the past
Is years. Inspector Lewis has inter-
viewed numerous Macon attorneys
court officials and citizens. and he has
begun the taking Of anidavits News
paper files are also being consulted.
District Attorney Alexander Aker-
man declines to make any statement
as to the investigation, referring in
quirers to the Attorney General for
information. Mr.. Lewis also refuses
to discuss the assignment.
Not Opposed by Bartlett.
It is believed here that Congress
man Bartlett was approached by the
Department Of Justice with regard 70
the investigation of Judge Speer ana
that he did not oppose il.
Colonel HUH states that regardless
Of the activity of the Department of
Justice he is proceeding with his plan
Of petitiOning Congress to investigate
charges which he will make against
Judge Speer He says that his charges
have slight connection with his case,
but deal almost altogether with other
acts which he imputes to Judge Speer
Colonel Huff is expecting a visit from
Inspector Lewis, and ne says he viii
freely give the special agent all iufOr-
nation that he has i'm his possession.
The disclosure that Judge Speer is
under fire has caused a genuine SEN
sation here.

part in its proceedings. He long ago
announced his candidacy for the

DIES WATCHING
SENSATIONAL
NOVIEFILM
Heart Failure Takes Off C. G..
Manner, Drug Company COIIec-
tor, in Picture Theater,

C. G. Manner of 1856 South Moreland
Street, a collector for the EllIin
Drug Company, died in the Alcazar
Theater Friday morning about 1890
o'clock as he was watching a pic
ture advertised as "hair-raising Incl
dents, cleverly woven into an as
founding story of jungle terror"
Death is believed to have been due
to heart failure, as Manner left his Of
Ifice Friday morning apparently in
the best of health and spirits.
Manner took a seat in the theater
in the third row, left, near the back.
No one noticed anything unusual
until 1870 O'Clock when a spectator,
passing up the aisle, reported to the
office that a man was snoring" on
the third row. The doorkeeper re-
sponded and shook the man to wake
him up.
Dead When Removed.
The man who later proved to be
Maner, was found to be dying Man
ager Jackson says he believes he was
dead when the doorkeeper reached
him, as his eyes were CLASSY and his
mouth open.
The dead man was taken to Patter-
son s. WneTe ne was Identified as -
G. Manner, by means of a collectors
card in his pocket.
The family, consisting of wife and
one daughter, Mrs. DR.. Warnock,
were notified Immediately.
In Best of Health.
Maner, apparently, had no warning
of the end. He left Elkin's drug
store Friday morning in buoyant
spirits. according to T. f. Jennings,
assistant manager, who said he
ioked with Manner just before he left
about $50 o'clock.
Manner, according to Mr.. Jennings,
told him Thursday night how fine he
felt. Manner was about So years old
and had been employed by the Elkin
Drug Company about three years.

NO CHANGE OF
DUKE BECOMING
ASTAGE STAR

The question has been raised here
as to whether the stage appearance
of Robert Kaawa, the Hui Nalu swim
mer. will injure his amateur standing
in that sport, and the general verdict
is that il will not. providing he isn't
advertised as a champion swimmer.
II the local crack is merely doing 4
Hawaiian turn in vaudeville, he is in
the same class as any actor who goes
in for amateur sport. but If he is
using his swimming prowess to Sc
cure his stage recognition, he enters
the professional class.
According to w T.. Rawlins, there
is no chance of Duke Kahanamoku
falling for the lure of the footlights.
Coast papers have printed the yarn
that the champion was thinking Of
going into vaudeville. but Rawlins
says that this is a very bad guess,
and that Duke has no thought of a
stage career. At present he is visit
ing friends at Sonoma, and in another
week he will be back in Honolulu.
Dukes great ambition just now is
to represent America at the Berlin
Olympic games in 1916, and be isn't
going to take any chances OF being
ineligible TO compete.

WILLIAMS Wild
in THE CRISIS

Poor Johnny Williams did the
wrong thing at the wrong time, ac-
cordings to the San Francisco Bulle-
tin, which prints the following:
Wonder if Honolulu John Williams
was wise to the fact that three or
more scouts were hidden away in the
grandstand, watching his movements
like the proYerbial cat does the pro
verbal mouse she is about to gulp
down. 1t may be that some gumshoe
artist tipped it off to the islander that
he was being watched, which explains
his dismal exhibition. which bordered
on stage fright. Williams was wild in
the first round, but successfully extri-
Gated himself from the pitfalls. ;"
Then the second came along and he
was bad again. He walked the first
batter and had three balls on the sec
ond when Woiyerton beckoned his
field leader to apply the hook. That's
the way they do in the big leagues,
no matter who is in the box-whether
it is a $4,000 beauty or 4 bad acting
novice, it is to the clubhouse for him
the moment the manager sees that he
can't get the ball over the pan. VIII
liams was unable to get the ball up
to the plate, to say nothing about
putting it over. Had Williams given
successful exhibition the chances
arc that some other club would have
claim upon him by now From q
very good source it was learned after
the game that certain scout was
ready to close. for Williams at
mighty fancy price-part of the stipu-
lation being four players. But until
Williams shows more than he did yes
terday the scouts won't break their
necks to tear him away from the Sac
ramento club. About three weeks ago
Williams twisted the muscles of his
throwing arm, and this was his first
same since that unfortunate affair.
Williams was either short of work
yesterday, or else that arm was
wrenched worse than he thought. Be-
ing curve ball pitcher, it NAV take
much longer before he will come back
to his best form. If that be the case
the scouts will have to beat it to the
coast again. H.,

Williams and that is all that II hold

Hawaiian Makes Good Record.
Williams was discovered by Hal
Danzig at Honolulu three or four years
ago and reported TO Sacramento IN
the spring Of 1911. He was farmed
out to Victoria and joined the Sena-
tors as regular last season. He won
nine and lost sixteen, which was just
tribe lower than the percentages Of
mis- team, which finished In the cellar.
This year the Hawaiian has had
wonderful success. He is the loW-run
pitcher of the Coast League. an aver
age of only 1.95 runs per game having
been poled Off his delivery. His hit
average is $50. He has won eight
games and lost five. williams Is laid
up with a sore neck at present, but
will probably pitch again soon.
He is possessed Of great speed
ball, sharp breaking curves and has
the happy faculty OF being able t. curl
himself around the ball and shoot II
to the batter with a body only half
turned toward the batsman. This de-
livery is extremely difficult to solve.

SEVEN HITLESS GAMES
FOR WIGGS Is RECORD

+. Jim Wigs claims the record of hay-
ing pitched the most no-hit games of
any twirler in America. AS there is
no record on this score who can dis
pute his contention Wigs pitched
recently his seventh hitless game.
Pitching for Newark he defeated Iry-
ington, s to- l. There were seven
boots behind him, which accounted for
the one run. The only. man he walked
scored on two wild and weird pegs
executed by his teammates. In addi-
ton Jim famed seventeen ITVington
batters. Even when he was playing
professionally Wigs invariably had
a large ~strikeout record. But seven
hitiess games by one. pitcher is a
record that won't be beaten right
away. Wigs has q world of speed,
and when going right is hard to
fathom. .s-..~ L.. F.:
