POLICE LOOKING
FOR Mr.. STUCKEY
ALLEGED BALL PLAYER PASSES
BAD DRAFT FOR $35 ON
BRANCH PHARMACY.

The police are now looking for A.
P. Stuckey, who has been in the city
for several days representing himself
to be ball player waiting for try
out with the Brunswick team.
On Monday the Branch Pharmacy
cashed a draft which he presented,
drawn on the Gress Manufacturing
company, of Jacksonville, for $35 and
presumably bearing the endorsement
of ur. IS. T. Carswell, which fact
secured him the money, but the en-
dorsement has since been proven a
forgery, and the draft has been repud-
lated by the Gress company.
Before securing the money at the
Branch Pharmacy, Stuckey tried to
induce Edo Miller, to whom he had
been introduced under the name OF
Warwick, to cash the draft before DR..
Carswell had supposedly indorsed it.
Stuckey becoming abusive when he
failed to get the money. He also en-
deavored to get it cashed at a half
dozen other places in the city.
Since coming to Brunswick Stuckey
has been stopping at the Southern
hotel. He has not been seen, howev-
er, since Thursday night, but If
caught, he has enough charges to
face that will keep him from playing
ball, even if he is a ball player which
is now doubted, for some time to
|come.

SLOW IN
MAKING RETURNS
SMALL PERCENTAGE HAVE COM
Piled WITH THE LAW, MAY
BE DOUBLE TAXED.

Brunswick property owners and
those of the county as well are being
negligent in making property returns
for taxation, and as the time allowed
for making such returns is growing
very short it would seem now that
several hundred citizens VIII be
caught mapping and will be doubled
taxed for their negligence. Receiver
'Dubberly will close his books May l
and turn them over to the board OF
county assessors.
This is about two months earlier
than heretofore, but under the new
state law the books must be closed
in time to allow the county assessors
time to go over each return of prop
erty and pass upon fairness.
The books close May 1st," said
Mr.. Dubberly, "and yet though half
the time is gone, not much more than
onetenth of the property owners have
made returns. After the first of
May they will have to pay double
taxes, and nothing under the sun
can prevent collection on that basis.
THE law is that, after May 1, all
property not returned shall be assess
ed at an equitable amount and the
taxes ascertained on that assessment.
Then the taxes will be doubled as
punishment to delinquents. 1t will
make a difference, and whole lot
of people are going to have to pay
money they cannot afford this year, IL
they do not get move on
While the last two weeks the books
are opened generally sees a tremen-
dous rush to make returns, still it is
seldom that the work in the tax re-
ceiver's office has been so far behind
as 1t is this year on account Of tar
diness Of property owners.

Battle Lines Drawn Tight.

When the Panama tolls fight was
resumed in the House today the bat
tie lines were drawn in this manner
Fffty-five minutes remained fer de
bate on the special rule to limit dis
eussion to twenty hours on the Sims
Dill for repeal OF the exemption on
coastwise ships.
Chairman Henry, Of the rules com
mittee, leading that phase of the con
test for the administration forces,
was ready at the conclusion Of the
fifty-fye minutes to move the prev
sous question:" a parliamentary ma
neuver to shut off debate on the rule
and force vote, the tlrst real test
OF strength.
Opponents Of the administration
program, strengthened by Speaker
Clark's vigorous denunciation Of the
attempt at cloture, were prepared tt
bring every resource into play to
beat "the previous question" and thus
throw down the bars for unlimited de
bate, not only on the rule, but on the
repeal bill itself.
On this first test vote hung not
only the question Of pressing the ad
measure through, but al
so the greater one Of opening it tc
amendment, for the rule proposes that
only one amendment may be permit
ted to intervene-and that would be
one motion to recommit to the com
merce committee.
