Greene Gaynor Gases
To Figure at Savannah,

SAVANNAH, Jan. 24.-It became
known in Savannah o-day that the
House Judiciary Committee inves.l-
eating the charges of official miscon-
duct on the part of Federal Judge
Emory Speer would begin its session
in Savannah on Monday in the Fed
eral courtroom.
Several Savannah attorneys, who
have had open clashes with Judge
Speer in the courts, have filed pa
pers with the department, and these
will be the principal witnesses.
The Greene and Gaynor cases will.
of course, come in for large part of
the investigation here, for the draw
ing of the Grand Jury for this indict-
ment has been charged as irregular.
None of the jurors were from Chat
ham County.
The fact that Judge Speer had a
real or fancied antipathy to Chatham
County juries was recently substan-
tiated in the trial of the Beech Man
ufacturing Company case when
Judge William Sheppard, of Florida,
found the jury box exhausted because
there were no Chatham County names
in the box. He commented on this in
open court and sent his deputies out
to summon some.

torneys for contempt of court with
out justification. He said he was
fined $40 for excepting to one of the
judges statements.
MIR. Jones said the judge was too
quick to appoint receivers without
notice, on ex parte hearings, and had
been several times censured for it by
the Appellate Court.
Colonel w. A. Huff went back on
the stand to elaborate his previous
testimony. He declared that in his
bankruptcy case his original attor-
ney was ''bulldozed" and intimidated
by Judge Speer until he withdrew

Says Soul Diseased.
Harry Stilwell Edwards, noted au-
thor and former postmaster of Ma
con, in tetifying as to Judge Speers
varying moods with regard to his
mental condition, described the
judges trouble as follows:
Destructive spirituality embraces
those emotions which we classify IN
DER jealousy, envy, malice, hatred.
self-praise, love of praise and desire
ter public APPRECIATION. Those cover
destructive spirituality. They are ia
tai to the soul of any man that vii
entertain them long enough. l think
they have Judge Speer in their grasp.
That is my opinion of Judge Speer."
Mr.. Edwards was the most interest
ing witness before the Investigators
Friday afternoon.
Shift to Savannah.
After to-days sitting the probe
into the charges against Judge Speer
will shift to Savannah, where at least
a week will be spent.
Judge Speer's lawyers regard the
testimony of Friday of the most Sc
rious brought out. but they have an
explanation or reconciliation for every
feature of it.
feature of the Friday afternoon
session was the introduction of an af-
fidavit from Harry Burns, a former
bailiff, in confederation of the charge
made by District Attorney Alexander
Alderman as to Judge Speer's alleged
manipulation of jury at Albany in
the trial of banker.
Kept Jury Walking.
This jury stood ten to two for con-
viction, and the fact was reported to
Judge Speer The District Attorney
swears that Marshal White stated
that he CWhite) had ben ordered by
the judge not to let the jury DELHI
crate any more, but to keep them
walking from supper to bedtime.
The affidavit from Bailiff Burns IS
to the same effect, and also that he
did walk" the jury until 10 O'Clock
The next morning he brought the jury
into court, and a mistrial was de-
clared.
1t is claimed by Judge Speer's at
torneys in regard to the jury episode
that he merely wished to give the
jurors plenty of exercise.
