Remarkable Marital Record.
Police Investigating.

A mysterious telephone call had the
police hard at work Thursday unrav-
cling an astonishing marital tangle in
which youthful and pretty Mrs Cora
Barber, who first abandoned single
blessedness at the age of Is, was the
principal figure.
The call came from the Pryor Ho-
tel, and informed the police that James
A. Barber was beating his wife. Po-
Hcemen Hazlett and Bairfield arrest
ed Barber. who, with his young bride
was arraigned before Recorder
Broyles Thursday.
1t developed then that nobody was
willing to stand sponsor for the
charge, and the case was about to COL
lapse when it developed, through the
evidence of DIR. C. w. Smith, drug
gist at No. IL Carroll street, that
there were other features calling for
investigation.
Admits Three Marriages.
Smiths story showed that Mrs
Barber had been three times wife
and perhaps four. She admitted three

from whom she was divorced in 1908;
Harry Fleming, at Canton, in 1909;
divorced 1912, and Barber in Doug
lasville, in 1913.
The police, however, produced a let
ter tending to show that another hus-
band f1gured-Joseph B. Chance, who
was alleged to have claimed her as his
bride in Marietta in 1913. This let
ter was written to Mrs. BARRIERS sis
ter, and in it the young woman, who
signed herself Mrs Cora Chance, "
was alleged to have written:
81 have at last found the man
love-the man l have been looking
and longing for these many years"
DR.. Smith said he did not believe
Mrs. Barber had secured divorce
from Chance and the Recorder
thought an investigation necessary.
He had Barber and his wife put
under bond.
Says Smith Was Rejected.
Mrs. Barber explained Smiths ami
mus with the declaration that he had
pursued her for three years with flu
tile efforts to make her wed him and
had threatened to kill her if she
didn't Smith. however said she had
entered his drug store and thrown
her arms about him.
Il couldn't help that" he said,
amidst the filters of the courtroom.
No, | don't suppose you can help
being handsome" remarked Judge
Broyles.

IN WAR ON
LOCKERS
Police Commissioners Are Called.
tentative indictments Framed.
OuBose to Lead Inquiry.

A Grand Jury probe of Atlanta
locker clubs was begun THURSDAY
when Deputy Sheriff Picnic Miner
acting under directions from Solici-
tor General Dorsey. began serving
subpenas on officers of the organi-
cations and members of the Police
Commission to appear before the
Grand Jury Friday.
Indictments have been drawn by
Solicitor Dorsey, from the Capital
City Club on down, and the list of
witnesses will include the many
prominent business and professional
men who are officers of the better
clubs
At the same time 1t was learned
that the officers of the social clubs
where liquor is served as an incident
would inform the Grand Jury that
they would make every effort to com
ply with the law.
Willing to Make Changes.
They will present the premise that
they always have lived within the
spirit of the law, and will make
whatever technical changes are nee
essary.
The bills of indictment prepared by
Solicitor Dorsey are against the cor
porationS and not against the clun
officers or members. Some clubs, it
was learned already have provided
changes in their systems of keeping
drinks for their members.
Solicitor Dorsey's move was made
after members OF the Atlanta Law
Enforcement League, led by the Rev.
H. NJ. DuBose, had conferred with
members of the Grand Jury and with
him.
Pastor as Prosecutor:
He was supplied with considerable
evidence. Before the Grand Jury he
will stand in the roll as prosecutor
in this as in all other cases.
City officials are very much wor-
ried over the situation. majority
declared for a liberal policy, and all
but three of twenty applications Tor
licenses were granted despite reports
that several of the clubs are being
run for individual gain.
The Grand Jury will investigate
these reports
Aside from the moral issue, city
officials are troubled with another
phase of the case.
Near Beer Sale Attacked.
The Law Enforcement League has
attacked the system of the sale of
near beer" 1t has been announced
that after the status of locker clubs
has been settled, they intend to take
up the saloons
Locker clubs net the city approx =
mately $4,000 a year income, and
from the present number of saloons
about s52,0 is secured. This amount
has been included in the new budget,
and will still be included whether the
budget is passed as recommended by
The Finance Committee or amended
IN accordance with the demands of
Inc Aldermanic Board.
Should these institutions be closed
the city would be out 100000; and
Ia its present strained financial con-
clifton it would find itself in a hole.
