GAMBLE IN COURTHOUSE
Marshal of Georgia Town Raids
Grand Jury Room and Cap
lures Three.

BANLEY, Ga, April 9.-Quite little
excitement was caused here today when
the city marshal made a raid on the
courthouse. located in the center of the
town and in the heart of the business
section and on the grand jury room of
the courthouse and arrested three men
charged with gambling. The marshal re-
ceived information about the middle of
the afternoon that a game was in prog
ress in the grand jury room and over
the very table around which the grand
jurors deliberate. and without calling
for assistance he slipped into the court
room and to the door of the room In
which the game was being played.
He alone bagged the game by entering
the room, and in addition to three men
arrested he obtained a deck of cards and
some small change. Those arrested were
II. Cleland, constable for the justice
court of the Baxley district; Dave Tuten
and Joseph Williams. Williams denies
being in the game. but the marshal states
that all three were around the table, and
that Cleland and Tuten have admitted
their guilt. Cases have been instituted
against Cleland and Tuten, but Williams
has been released.

a protest to be sent to the Secretary of

of Omaha in the Kansas City district of
the reserve banking system. The protest
is the formal action OF the Omaha clear

i'ne protest asserts that the selection
of the locations for regional reserve
banks was not made with view to the
customary course of business, and that
THEREFORE was not in accordance with the
currency law. j ne protest asks that If
Omaha may not have regional bank
of its own it be thrown into the Chicago

that direction.

Mr.. Baldwin Urges Passage

Rate of Interest on Loans

The urgent need of some source whence

today BY William II. Baldwin. chairman
OF the citizens committee interested in
the strict enforcement of the loan law
Mr. Baldwin contends that the whole
question is ore of cost, and that the
business of making small loans cannot
be and will not be carried on as the law
stands. because the cost of doing it is
too great. The rate of interest al
lowed" he declared. should be raised.
Mr. Baldwin says:
Although the stipulation made by the
corporation counseis office with the loan
companies entities all borrowers, first.
to get back all interest paid on loans
made since March s. 1918. and second,
to settle all loans not vet paid up for
three-fourths of the principal without
any interest, no one will get back any
interest unless he makes application for
il. and the loan companies are not re-
strained from collecting the high-interest
loans as made if the borrowers through
ignorance pay more than they ought.
BY the terms of the agreement the
IA nniication for relief must be made
through the Office of the corporation
counsel This puts a lot of work OH that
office. but 1t has been undertaken in A de-

Outlay to Foreign Ships.

We pay $500 100000 a year to the
owners of foreign bottoms for carry
ing our wares to market said Senator
Thomas. This is equivalent to the
cost of the canal. Everything tending
to divert this traffic into American
bottoms must be a distinct gain to
American commerce and to the Ameri-
can people Nothing can more surely
effect this than the free use of the
canal to the commerce of the world"
In conclusion Senator Thomas said
We should establish the policy of uni
versal free tolls and thereby secure the
greatest possible benefits to the Ameri-
can people in return for the enormous
expenditure involved. There is nothing
in our treaty stipulation which would be
disresarded by the adoption of such a
policy. and nothing in the democratic
platform in conflict with it. The policy
is entirely non partisan and should ap-
peal to all. and has for its object the
welfare for all times of the American
people.

CANNOT Do BUSINESS
UNDER PRESENT STATUTE
Would Force People Against Their
Will. It Is Declared. to Ask
Aid Of Charity.

The House District committee -oday
heard several persons on the proposed
increase in rates for remedial loans
from ! per cent to IL per cent No de
clsion was reached. The testimony
tended TO show that loan companies
could not do business profitably on the
basis of l per cent month. and that
those who were charging that rate or
less We're losing money.
The first witness before the commit
tee was c. c. Tucker. appearing solely
as counsel for George Horning. who
wants a more liberal treatment for
pawnbrokers.
Mr.. Tucker said he was thoroughly in
sympathy with the movement to wipe out
eXtortion from the loan business and to
drive out loan sharks"
1t is an absolute impossibility TO make
small loan up to So for less than 3 per
cent month. That is the experience all
over the Inion,' said Mr. Tucker. The
Society for Savings is losing money loan
ing at | per cent a month.

SAYS SON WAS BURNED ALIVE.
Steel Company, However. Says There
Is Nothing to Prove Death.

BUFFALO. n. Y, April 9.-The Wick
wire Steel Company. in answering the
suit of Mrs. Susan Hargreaves in su-
preme court for the alleged death of her
son. who, she claims, was burned to
death in huge furnace after being shut
in when he entered to make some adjust
ments. claims there is no evidence to
show that the man Is dead, as his body
has never been seen.
The steel company took this unusual
stand after Mrs. Hargreaves made the
claim that her sons body was entirely
consumed in the furnace The mother s
contention is that her son was sent into
the furnace, and while inside some one
closed the door and shut off the air and
he was burned alive. The question which
now confronts the jury is whether Har-
greaves is alive or dead.

OFFUTT PARDONED BY
MARYLAND'S GOVERNOR
Rockville Youth Under Fifteen Year
Sentence for Kretzmer Muir
der Is Free.
Special Correspondence of The star


ROCKVILLE, Md. April 9 1914
Through the untiring efforts of de.
voted mother. Nicholas D. Offutt jr
sentenced in circuit court here January
1909 to fifteen years in the Maryland
penitentiary for the murder here, Octo
ber 81. 1908, of Frank Kretzmer, a Rock
vile merchant, yesterday was pardoned
by Gov. Goldsborough and last evening
returned to his home here. Anticipatin
favorable action by the governor, mem
bers of his family were awaiting his
Homecoming and joyous reunion fol
lowed his arrival.
kretzmer's murder was the result of q
Halloween celebration by a number OF
children of Rockville, of which a little
sister of Offutt was one. Entering the
store of Kretzmer, the children INDUCED
in the usual pranks and Kretzmer play
fully raised a mask which hid the fea-
lures of the Offutt child
Exaggerated reports of Kretzmers S
act reached the ears of young Offutt,
who had been drinking, and, procuring
a revolver he went to the store OF
Kretzmer and after words shot the
merchant in the abdomen. causing his
death a day or two later in Wash
ington hospital.
Immediately after the shooting young
Onutt left Rockville and late that
evening was arrested at the home of
relatives at Bethesda. He was brought
to Rockville and just before reaching
the Jail escaped from the officer The
following day Sheriff George Mullican n
learned that he had boarded train at
Washington for New York. The New
York authorities were notified. and
Ofutt was placed under arrest as he
left the train there.
second-Degree Murder Plea.
Offutt was indicted and his case was
set for trial In January, 1909. When
the case was called Offutt pleaded
guilty to murder in the second degree.
the prosecuting officers having agreed
to accept such a plea Judge Hender-
son sentenced him to fifteen years in
the penitentiary. Isaac Lobe Straus,
who was then attorney general, was
engaged by friends of kretzmer to
assist States Attorney Waters in the
prosecution. Offutts interests were in
the hands of Edward c. Peter. now as
sociate judge of this circuit; Robert b.
Peter and w. Outerbridge Spates, now
states attorney for this county.
Several months ago the young man s
mother began to work for pardon. She
circulated a petition and obtained the
signatures of the presiding judge, FORMER
States Attorney Waters, Mr.. Straus and
many leading citizens of this county and
state The petition was declared to have
been one of the strongest ever presented
TO a Maryland governor
At the time of the tragedy young Ofutt
had scarcely attained his majority his
youth and the fact that he was not him-
self at the time of the shooting had much
to do with the willingness of SO many
influential persons to sign the petition for
his liberation, but the controlling innu-
ance was. undoubtedly the deep sympathy
felt by them for the mother and other
relatives of the young man.
