found this morning about o'clock by
Ii. II. Hammond, about 800 yards
north of Mr. IIammond's house on
the side of private road through the
farm. Five feet from the body was
found heavy crowbar with blood
stains on it.
Mr.. Hammond telephoned Sheriff
G, X. Houser Immediately after the
gruesome discovery and the sheriff
with Constable w. j. Goad went to
the scene. Deputy Coroner Hugh l..
Webster later impaneled a jury and
held an inquisition with the result
that the death of the negro was declar-
ed to be the result of the act of an
unknown party.
Pryer's home was in Happy Hollow,
northwest of the city not far from
where he was killed. His wife stated
this morning that she and her brother
returned last night from Nashville
and found Pryor in an unpleasant
mood. He left home against her wish,

was going other than he was going to
make IS.
The negro evidently was killed with
out IA struggle. There were two deep
gashcs on his head which crushed his
skull. If he was killed with the
crowbar his assailant was physical

with the smaller piece of iron, it was
placed in his hand and gripped with

One leg was broken, probably by a
pistol shot. Physicians are eXamin-

Sheriff Houser stated this morning
that he expects. this ,.m.nrder to be
one of the deepest mysteries in the
criminal annals of Maury county.
The sheriff has set his entire force
of deputies to work on the case.

CRUCIAL STATE IS REACHED

ID. Week-Much oratory 10
., @g Prepared. F.

Washington, D. c., Aug. 19.Sena-
tor Hitchcock, leader Of the supporters.
of the treaty with Germany Ii the
senate committee on foreign relations.
has issued the following statement
through the league to enforce peace,
Hitchcock's Statement.
"The treaty ratification situation
has changed somewhat during the
past week. A new issue was raised
when asked the chairman of the
foreign relations committee and min
GRITTY members when they proposed to
get action" ~. IT, !
/ took the course after consulting
with a number of senators. There
has been a growing demand for action
by the committee. It has. had the
treaty since July 10, for five weeks,
therefore, the treaty has been in cold
storage without a vote or any other &C.
ton.
Country ls Waiting.
"The senate is waiting, and the
country is waiting, and the fmpatfence
Is increasing. Every one knows that
the enemies Of the treaty and oppo.
nents Of the league of nations control
the committee. Everyone also knows
that they do not control the senate.
Public sentiment sresents the sugges-
ton that the opponents Of the treaty
might keep It locked UP in the COM
mittee, and this greatly delays rati-
flcation. A. ..'
when raised the issue in the com.
mittee, 1t. became manifest that sew.
eral republican members were opposed
to further delay and SO an under
standing was reached for voting.
Since then several days of additional
delay have interviewed, but we hope to
begin voting in committee this week
on proposed amendments. We ought
to get the treaty reported Back to the
senate in week or ten days.
Harm In Delay.
ut is of little Importance what the
committee does as long as it does
something. If it recommends amend
ments, the senate will reject them.
If it multilates the treaty, the senate
will cure the damage done, the chief
harm that the committee can do is in
causing delay.
Everyone realizes that we are still
suffering from war, and that the first
step toward relief is to ratify the
peace treaty. The Presidents address
served to arouse the country to the i'm
portance of treaty ratification as one
Of the steps necessary to reduce the
cost of living.
=. II. c. L. Affected.
HE has very properly connected the
high cost of living with the war. He
has shown that we cannot get rid Of
war conditions and war evils until
peace comes, with its normal condi.
lions.
"He has shown that the first step
that must be taken is the ratification
of the treaty. In pointing this out and
in taking the leadership in a move
ment to reduce the cost of living, the
president has brought the treaty much
nearer to a vote" E
