JOLLY PARDONED
OCEAN OF THE PENITENTIARY"
FREED BY GOVERNOR SLATON.
Had Served 35 Years For Murder of
Young Woman. Has Always
Maintained His Innocence.

ATLANTA.-James Jolly, known
as the dean of the Georgia peniten-
tiary," who has served thirty-five
years of a life sentence in the peni-
Tertiary camp in DeKalb county, was
ordered set free today by Governor
Slaton, who committed his sentence
to the time of service.
Thirty-five years ago when Jolly
was 80 years old he undertook to
drive a young lady from his home in
DeKalb county to Atlanta to take the
train back to her home in Alabama.
She was not heard of after that.
When the investigation was begun
as to her whereabouts jolly went
over to Alabama and induced a friend
to write back that she was there.
This threw suspicion upon him and
investigation developed the fact that
her body was buried on the side of
the road between Decatur and At
lanta.
Jolly was tried for her murder and
convicted He claimed on the occa-
sion of her trial and has stoutly
maintained ever since that on &C
count of something he said to her
she attempted to jump out of the
buggy; her dress was caught and she
was thrown on her head, breaking
her neck. Governor Slaton expressed
the view that While the crime was a
great one Jolly had suffered enough.
His only daughter is now living in a
distant state, and with this exception
he is alone in the world.

BOY FALLS Off STONE MOUNTAIN
Gordon Perdue Drops Seven Hundred
Feet to His Death.

ATLANTA.-The funeral of Cor
don Perdue, aged IS, who walked Off
Stone Mountain in the darkness and
fell 700 feet over a sheer cliff, was
held today. The accident was the
most peculiar that ever occurred on
the granite rock near Atlanta.
Young Perdue and friend, Percy
Irwin, of Concord, were strolling on
the mountain when darkness over
took them. They mistook the edge
of the precipice for path, and Per-
due walked off into space. Irwin
slipped over the edge, but managed
to gain a foothold in a crevice, where
he remained an hour shouting for
help. A party of Stone Mountain
residents heard his cries and sue
ceeded with great difficulty in rescu-
ing him.

OLIVER CASE CONTINUED
TRIAL AT LEESBURG WAS POST
PONED UNTIL NEXT FRIDAY.
Some of His Several Secreatires and
Cashiers Are Also Likely to
Have Serious Trouble.


Cashiers Are Also Likely to
Have Serious Trouble.
The defense not being ready the
preliminary trial of A. D. Oliver al
Leesburg Friday morning was post
poned until next Friday.
divers attorneys asked that
charges against Oliver be stated spe-
officially instead of being merely
branded as misdemeanor, as former
ly. These charges, according to the
prosecution, have been changed to
felony, investigations having disclos~
ed much graver evidence. Fraud"
is now charged.
1t is claimed that oliver secured
$3.50 by showing a certificate of de-
post on the Bank of Whigham with
cashiers check for $4,000, and Of
ficials of the Whigham bank claimed
at the hearing this morning that Oil
yer hadn't a deposit in their instftu-
ton.
1t was here that the attorney for
the defense asked postponement.
Two other warrants have been
sworn out against Oliver and his
bond has been increased by Justice
Goodwin. A big crowd attended the
hearing.
Yeomans & Wilkinson of Dawson
have been employed to prosecute Oil
yer.
Used Cashiers Checks.
1t is alleged that Oliver had sew
eral of his cashiers and assistant
cahsiers in various banks he had or
ganized at Smithville, Towns, Dool-
ing and other places sign cashiers
checks which he would fill out later.
These totaled something like 5000,
900, it is said, and he was going
about through the country with four
silk-hatted secretaries" in five au-
tomobiles, buying saw mills. How
many of these cashiers checks he
had cashed is not known, but it is
said that the total is large.
Two of divers cashiers, R. T,
Jones and J. c. Webb, it is said, have
been arrested at different points and
are now out on bonds. Another
cashier, R. NJ Warlick, is said to
have disappeared, saying that he had
no father to go on his bond, and
he was going away before any war
rant could be served on him. Wheth
err or not any warrant has been issued
for Warlick or for A. R. Kennedy,
another of divers cashiers, is not
known.
In the Lee county Jail at Leesburg
Oliver has little to say. He seems
confident that no charge can be made
against him that will stick, and he
calmly expect his release, confident
in the belief that his Imprisonment
will be short.
It is said that so far as the law
yers at work on the case have yet
been able to ascertain there is no
charge on which he can be held, and
that his youthful cashiers may have
to stand the brunt of the prosecu-
tons that will be made.

CURRENCY BILL PASSED
UNDER IT MORE COMMERCIAL
PAPER MAY BE ACCEPTED.
State Banks Having capitalization of
$50, 900 or More and 20 Per Cent
Surplus MAY Take Advantage.

WASHINGTON.-The emergency
currency bill, amending the Vree-
land-Aldrich act to make rs instead
of 80 per cent the amount of COM
mercial paper to be accepted from
banks as security for emergency, cur
rency, passed the senate today with
out a roll call and now goes to the
house. The measure was promoted
by financial conditions growing out
of the European war. An amendment
adopted today provides for the issue
of emergency currency through state
banks and trust companies. Senator
Smith of Georgia proposed the
amendment, which was supported
generally by Southern senator's, who
declared that only by issuing emer-
gency currency to state banks could
the needed circulation be brought to
the small farmer and small mer-
chant.
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1914-09-15
Privileges to State Banks.

Under the amendment all privi-
leges conferred on national banks
under the Vreeland emergency cur
rency act are extended to state banks
and trust companies having capital
izatfon of $4,000, or more, and a
90 per cent surplus. The amendment
exempts such notes as may be issued
to state banks from the ten per cent
tax on state bank circulation imposed
in 1875.
The senate voted down a proposal
that cotton producers should be CIV
en- preference in the loaning of emer-
gency currency in cotton states and
that the interest charged should not
exceed 6 per cent. Senator Overman
declared the purpose of emergency
currency in the South was to relieve
the cotton situation and said that by
his amendment relief to the cotton
producer would be assured.
