Policeman to Answer
Charges for Chasing
: Client From Lawyer

Charges OF conduct unbecoming an
officer are to be pressed against Paul
B. Pierson, a patrolman of long ser
vice, whose beat is on Decatur street,
the Board of Police Commissioners
to hear the complaint at It's regular
meeting Tuesday.
The complainant is w. C. Byers, a
law student, who asserts that a con-
ference between himself and negro
client, Tom Jones, was broken UP
the other night by the policeman, who
approached the pair, flashed his light
in their faces, demanded what they
were doing on the street at that hour,
and chased Jones off the beat.
Byers states that his conference
with the negro, which was held after
midnight, was concerning case in
the Recorders Court pending against
the negro. Pierson says he recognized
in Jones a crooked character of the
class he had been ordered to keep
of his beat. He has not been sus-
pended.

. F FAMILY He
ENDS LIFE
George B. Sickles, 70, Former
Head Of Marble Firm, Saw
No Use to Live Longer.

The suicide of George B. Sickles
Saturday at his home. No. 161 st.
Charles avenue, was the final act in a
tragic drama of ill-health and mis-
fortune that had logged his family to
extinction.
Mr.. Sckles. 70 years old, had been
under the care Of a trained nurse for
4 some time, owing to failing health.
Shortly after midnight he rose from
the bed, where apparently he had
been sleeping soundly. slipped into
Il the bathroom and fired bullet from
a heavy revolver into his brain. Death
was instantaneous.
4 Some years ago Mrs Sickles died
n suddenlv-suicide by means of drug,
II was understood-also while under
4 the care and guardianship of nurse.
Miss Maude Sickles, their only child,
had died not long before that, and
her parents were broken with grief.
Pair ldolized Daughter.
Ten or twelve years ago Mr.. Sickles
resigned from the marble business he
had established twenty years previ-
ously In Pickens County, Georgia. He
was independently wealthy, and he
and his wife devoted themselves to
their daughter, beautiful young
woman of unusual accomplishments.
They idolized her; she fully recipro-
Gated their affection, and the little
family was ideally happy.
The death of Miss Sickles came as
a terrible blow. The mother never
fully rallied from the shock, and was
under the care of a nurse until she
ended her life.
While his wife lived Mr. Sickles de-
voted himself to her. Following her
death, he lost his final interest in life,
and for the last few years he had
made no secret of the fact that his
own existence was a burden.
Saw No Reason to Live.
Il really do not see why l should
continue to exist" he once said to a
close friend
Under the burden Of sorrow and
loneliness, his health, impaired by ac-
tive service in the Union Army dur
ing the Civil War, failed rapidly. II
is believed by his attending physi-
clan that the end came while he was
mentally deranged.
Mr., Sickles served with distinction
IN the war, and wound received in a
southern Campaign-the bullet re-
NAMED in his body-contributed t,
MS failing health He was a business
man of marked ability, and a pioneer
IN the development of the marble re-
sources Of Georgia. He possessed a
mind of unusual brilliance and Gull
ture, and the friends who knew him
well esteemed him greatly

After Anderson had been gone
a few weeks, the woman began
to receive letters from him, ask
ing for a reconciliation. She re-
piled that she never wanted to
see him again. His letters then
became threatening, and in one
he is said TO have declared he
was coming to Atlanta and kill
both the woman and her child.
Moved to Hide From Him.
Mrs. ANDERSON, fearing for the life
OF the little girl. then moved to the
house at No. "a Trinity avenue, and
tried to keep her address a secret
The man learned Of 1t in some way,
however, and the letters continued to
come. Friday morning she received
letter from New Orleans warning
her to be careful, as ANDERSON was
coming to kill her and the little girl.
Statements made by the woman
and found in a note that ANDERSON
left involve another man and an
other woman in the shooting besides
Amerson's other wife at Tennille,
whose identity the police have not
yet learned. The woman, it is under
stood, told neighbors that her hus-
band had eloped with another woman.
and in his note Anderson accused the
woman Of allowing the other man to
come between them.
Throughout the note, which was
found in the pockets of the dead man,
he refers to the woman as his wife.
though he made no mention Of the
daughter The note follows

The note was signed "a J. A"
Neighbors who knew the slain wo-

BUDGET FOES
SEE EARLY
VICTORY
Mayor and Otis in Clash Over
Whitehall Project-Sentiment
Turns Toward Compromise.

Confidence was expressed Saturday
that the Whitehall street improve
ment project and other proposed
attachments to the city budget would
be adopted at the next meeting Of
Council, despite the passing of the
lie between Mayor Woodward and
Robert Otis, one of the leaders in
the movement.
1t was evident that a number OF
members Of the Council who have
been supporting the defiant attitude
of the Finance Committee are on the
point OF yielding to the demands for
conference committee to affect a
compromise that would break the
deadlock Of Council and the Alder
manic Board over the budget
1t was equally apparent that the
militant attitude Of the advocates of
the Whitehall street Improvement
was having much to do with the
change of sentiment in the Council
Not Enough Money, Mayor Says.
Mayor Woodward denied his posi-
ton in urging that the budget be
passed as recommended by the FL
nance Commute meant that he OPP
posed the Whitehall street improve
ment.
Anyone who stops to think for a
moment will realize that the city
hasn't sufficient money to provide
for improvements on South Pryor
street and Whitehall this year." he
said.
The Finance Committee. on which
Alderman C. K. Kelly, of the Second
Ward. was a representative, put
$4,000 in the sheet for South Pryor
street. If the Whitehall and For
syth street projects are more i'm
portant to that ward and the Council
changes the appropriation, it will be
satisfactory to me-"
Puts Blame on Otis.
The Mayor blamed Otis for the
leadership in the move to place the
blame for Whitehall street being left
"As the members of the Finance
Committee know, | had very little to
do with making that sheet. l sat at
my desk and attended to other du-
ties
As to Mr.. Otis charge that he was
Liar and character assassin" be-
cause he charged that Mr. Otis Was
personally interested in the proposed
Whitehall and Forsyth streets i'm
provement, the Mayor said
Il don't know whether anyone has
lied or not. do know Otis told me
he was interested.
Councils Attitude Unchanged.
Il do not propose to pay any at
tention to Otis nor any other little
blackguard Of that character. When
he desires to talk business in a quiet
way as d gentleman, then he's en-
titled to some recognition"
The Council has not formally
changed its attitude on the budget.
The special meeting called Friday to
consider it was adjourned because
Chairman w. G. Humphrey, OF the
Finance Committee, was out of the
city. Mayor Woodward has announc-
ed that no more money can be an
ticipated, unless over his veto: and
he intimates that the anticipation Of
the $4,000 ought to be cut down
