Washington, Oct. 14.-Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador,
issued today the following statement
under the heading,
authorized by the Imperial Gov
ernment"
an possession OF French soldiers
who were made prisoners, particular
" near Schirme, Montmedy and
Longwy, numerous steel mantle pro-
icctiles were found, the tops OF
of which had been bored out by
machinery to q width of five and n
depth of seven millimeters. Near
Fort Longwy a mechanical contriv-
ance, serving to alter the bullets of
finished cartridges in the above fash
ion was found, There also were
hole cases full of such cartridges
captured. 1t is therefore beyond
doubt that cartridges of this type
have been dealt out to the troops by
the French army authorities.
CAS- regards to the effect Of the
hollow top bullets, commonly known
as dumdum bullets. the softer leaden
nucleus will at the impact emerge
from the steel mantel and fatten out
thus causing peculiarly cruel wounds
and needless suffering. The sam.
is to be said of the mantle which
when torn open produces heavy la
ceration in the organic tissues.
"The use of such proiectiles is pro
hibited by the rules of international
law"

LACY GUILTY-WIFE FREE.
Negro Accused of Killing Newton
Saunders of Mason.

Saunders of Mason.
Covington.-Under the instructions
Of the court, the jury in the case of the
state of Tennessee VS.. Peter Lacy, ne
gro, indicted for murder in the first
degre of Newton Saunders at Mason
last September, returned verdict of
voluntary manslaugkter and Lacy was
sentenced to an indeterminate term
of from two to ten years in the state
penitentiary. A verdict of not guilty
was returned by the jury in the case
of the state vs. Rosa Lacy wife OF Pc
ter Lacy. The killing occurred near
the depot In Mason about 2 o'clock on
Sept. 1, last. Saunders, a respected
white citizen, it seems, ascertained
that Lacys wife had been instrument
al in persuading his cook, who was in
debted to him for considerabl emoney
advanced her, to quit his employment,
and was at the depot when she started
to leave on the afternoon train for
Memphis. He and the woman, Rosa
Lacy, became involved in an alterca-
ton, and it is alleged that the woman
struck at him with an umbrella and
cursed him; that Saunders thereupon
slapped her.
At this juncture Peter Lacy, the hus-
band of the woman, who was unloading
gravel from freight car nearby,
slipped up behind Saunders and, with
out word, struck him in the back of
the head with an iron shovel. Saun-
ders was rendered unconscious by the
blow and died without regaining con-
seriousness. Rosa Lacy claimed that
Saunders slapped her and that she
did not make any effort to strike him.
Saunders was well known and pop
ular citizen of Mason and there was
intense excitement and feeling aroused
over the manner in which he was
killed, as it appeared that Saunders
did not see the negro who struck him,
and, in fact, never knew who did strike
him.

with his blankets wrapped around him.

and watched Chief Homelli enjoy the
turkey and wines that were served,
and after the dinner he sat down In a
corner of the cabin with the white men
while they smoked the pipe of peace
together.

The dispute between the states OF
Tennessee and North Carolina over
their boundary was decided by the SUI
preme court in favor of North Caro-
lima.
The dispute arose over the exact To-
cation of the state boundary as prof.
ected by a commission in 1921. Both
states laid claims to some 10000 acres
of mountainous timber land near Slick
Rock Creek and for years each state
has imposed taxes on the lands.
Justice McKenna, in announcing the
courts decision, said that after careful
consideration of all the arguments and
evidence, including the usual amount
of conflicting expert testimony, the
court found the line to be as claimed
by North Carolina.
