Hunt Was Countrywide.

New York, Jan. 1.-THE police of
every part of the country, especially
the South, were today asked to hunt
for Harry Thaw, wanted on the charge
of kidnapping and assaulting Frederick
Gump, Jr
Rumors were heard that Thaw was
in places as far apart as Canada and
Georgia and Florida. Nothing WIS de-
finite. Thaw has relatives and friends
in Georgia and Florida.
Hoping that Thaw would be found
in Pittsburg, the district attorneys
office last night sent a copy Of the
indictments there The Pittsburg
police reported that they could not
locate Thaw and expressed the opin'
ion that he was not in PittsbuTs.
Indirect assurances to the district
attorney that Thaw intended to sur
render here and assert his innocence
were not fulfilled. A detective who
knw Thaw was at the Criminal Court
building all night, ready to arrest him.
Oliver Brewer was today indicted
charged with conspiracy to kidnap
Frederick Gump, Jr. Brewer was
arrested in Philadelphia.

though the law was passed to become
effective Jan. l last, all litigation un-
der it and the changes it prescribes
are suspended by agreement.
The question whether congress has
power to regulate hours of service and
wages furnished the keynote of the
argument today in which the justices
manifested keen interest, interrupting
with many questions. In opening de-
tense of the law for the department
of Justice, Solicitor General Davis de-
clared it regulates both hours of ser
vice and wages and commended con-
gress has authority to regulate both.
He asked annulment Of the decision
of Circuit Court Judge Hoke, at Kan
sas City, in the test case of the Mis-
souri,, Oklahoma and Gulf railroad

tween the federal and railroad coun
sci. Tomorrow Walker d. Hines
chairman Of the railroads general
committee of counsel, and John G.
Johnson, of Philadelphia, will speak
for the carriers, and on Wednesday
the closing argument for the govern
ment will be made by Frank Hager
man. special assistant 20 the attorney
general.
The railroad brotherhoods are par
ticipating through counsel but several
labor leaders were spectators To-Day
Attorney General Gregory and his en-
tire staff and many members Of con
gress also were in the crowded court
room.
Solicitor General Davis in two
hour argument told the court that II
reached the heights of imagination
to say that the primary object of COZ
gress In passing tho law was not tt
limit the hour of toll. He asserted
that Elisha Lee, the railroads spokes
man through the strike controversy
aften had. admitted that fact, as vel
as that the law is workable, now de
MED By the railroads. ''F'.

proceedings, the Louis Miller Store
having later failed. The Millers had
abundance of testimony as to their
good character and the charge of the
court was considered by them as
strongly indicating Judge Speers
!. opinion that there was no ground for
the accusation. The jury returned a
verdict of acquittal in short order.
Max E. Land, J. Gordon Jones and
Attorney Hoffmeyer of Albany repre-
sented Louis and George Miller in the
defense. Both attorneys and mer-
chants have had strong manifestation
of interest from many friends over
this and other communities in the
outcome Of the cases.

FALLING DOWN ON
UPKEEP OF ROAD
NATIONAL HIGHWAY IN DOOLY
AND HOUSTON COUNTIES SAID
TO BE TURNING TRAFFIC IN
OTHER DIRECTION.

Overland tourist travel from the
north and west to south Georgia and
Florida is on the. increase. The great
s-the-country highways have
opened up a means of travel for the
tourists that is growing in popularity
from year to year. And, yet with the
increase in the travel this year over
the last, the National Highway,
though recognized as the shortest
route to Florida and as a general rule
the best from the standpoint of good
roads, is not getting it's quote of the
travellers from Macon on through the
Florida line. The travel on the Nation
al Highway into Macon is unusually
heavy, but many OF the tourists, es-
pecially those who have not travelled
the National Highway before, are
routed over the two branches of the
Dixie Highway, one going by way OF
Sandersville, Davisboro and Savannah,
the other by way Of Andersonville,
Americas and Albany.
The matter of routing the tourists
over the Dixie Highway it is said, is
altogether occasoned by the fact that
laps of he highway in Houston and
Dooly counties are in a badly kept
condition, and that even, moderate
travel over the highway in these coun-
a. nd nh1pptinn-
able to the tourists. The failure OF
the National Highway to get its part
Of the travellers has been noted local
ly and this has led to inquiries as to
the cause, with the result that the
blame has been placed on Houston and
Dooly counties for their failure to
keep in good repair and passable con-
dition the section of the highway lying
in these counties.
Good road enthusiasts Of Crisp and
other counties of the National route,
as we'll as local trade organizations,
are inclined to take the matter up for
the purpose of gaining some definite
end in the matter of inducing the COM
missioners of Houston and Dooly to
give more attention to the upkeep OF
the highway, in order that this section
will get what should come to it in the
way of reimbursement for its enter
prise in cooperating for the creation
Of the National Highway.
