Gen. William 4. Wright
In Race for Reelection
To C0n1ptrOLLer'S Office
Recovery of Health Makes 1t
Possible for Him to Become
Candidate-0ppoSitiOn to
Him Is Not Expected

William A. Wright. comptroller gen.
eral of the state of Georgia, is a candi-
date for reelection to the Office he had
held so long and filled so efficiently.
At one time recently it was feared by
some of General wright's friends that
he would not be able to make the race,
owing to an illness, but he is now back
in his Office at work and is apparently
i'm better health than he has enjoyed in
years.
II am a candidate for reelection"
said General Wright. when asked II he
would rum
Il hope to be reelected without OPP
position and rather think / will be, as
/ have heard of no other announce
ments for the office. But / am in the
race whether opposition develops or
not. and 1 expect to be elected"
General Wright is a one-legged Con-
federate veteran and is the oldest Of
fetal in the state house in point of
service. He has made one of the best
officials the state has ever had. giving
complete satisfaction in the transac-
tion OF the important affairs OF his Of
fee, and there is probably no man in
Georgia who is better known to the
people in every county.
The present indications are that Cen
eral Wright will not be opposed.

Especial Dispatch to The Journal)
DECATUR, Ca, June 10.-Followlng
an investigation lasting the entire week
the DeKalb county grand jury yester-
day afternoon returned what is believed
to be the first batch of a big series
of indictments in connection with the
recent run-off primary. Two county Of
ficials, ]. E. Forester, tax collector,
and r. j. Freeman. commissioner OF

of their alleged activities in hiring au-
tomobiles to convey voters to the polls
A misdemeanor charge also was made
against H. H. Howard, T. V. Nolan and
Norman Warren, who, it is understood,
will be arraigned for alleged betting.
Other indictments are expected to fol-
low when the grand jury reconVenes
Monday.
The first man 10 face court in con-
rection with the investigation was c.
] Stamps, who yesterday entered plea
of guilty, stating that he was hired by
Il. ]. Freeman. commissioner of roads
and revenues to work for one of the
candidates. Stamps was fined $25.75.
The grand jurys vigorous investiga-
ton followed a charge by Judge Z.
Whiteford Smith who, among other
things, stated that If any candidate had
hired automobiles to bring voters to the
polls he should be indicted. Approx
nlateIy 500 witnesses have been sum-
moned in connection with the investiga-
ton, which may continue through the
greater portion of next week.

CAPTAIN ]. B. SAVERS
ARRESTED AT SYLVANIA
tspecial Dispatch DO The Journall

Especial Dispatch to The JournaL)
SAVANNAH, Ga, June 10.-A great
deal of interest has been aroused in
in Savannah over the report that Captain
j. B. Sayers. formerly a captain in the
Salvation Army at Savannah was i'm Jail
in Sylvania on a charge of cheating
and swindling. Captain Savers when
he lived in Savannah was very active
in the Salvation Army but after he
left here he left the service of that
Organization and went over to the Vol
unteers of America.
He was in Sylvania a few days ago
soliciting funds for an orphan asylum.
Among those he approached was Cap
tain r. J. Travis, head of the Savan-
nah Shriners. Captain Travis saw he
wore an Alec Temple Shriner pin and
as that was Captain Travis temple he
began to talk to Captain Sayers about
his authority to wear the emblem. II
was alleged the captain was not in
good standing with the Shrine and this
started an inquiry as to whether or not
he had a right to solicit funds for the
orphan asylum. The inquiry wound up
with the captains detention and his be-
ing placed in Jail.

INTERVIEW ON PEACE is
REPUDIATED BY GERARD
Says He Refused to Sanction
Spurious Interview Submit
ted by Count Won WeStarp

BERLIN, June 9.-(By Wireless.)
American Ambassador James w. Ger
ard has repudiated an interview recent
ly attributed to him on the subject Of
President Wilson's peace efforts, the
Overseas News agency says. The am
bassador also is quoted as asserting
that Count Friedrich Won Westarp. con-
sentative leader in the retchstag. desired
Mr. Gerard to have a spurious inter
view published some time ago, but that
the ambassador declined.
According to a statement given out
by the news agency today. manuscript
containing copy of the spurious inter-
view was submitted to Mr.. Gerard with
the idea that it was to have been pub
llshed in the National Zeitung, but the
ambassador refused to sanction it
