one to mind it for them for a few
days.
Jochin volunteered and took the
bag. A few minutes later one of the

to the bank and drew 5000 more, and
gave it also to the stranger. FL

COMPL|CATEDLOVE
AFFAIRS Of MARTIN
Barred At INQUEST
Letters Show Former Lieu
tenant Was Engaged to
Number of Young Women,
Jealousy Theory Exploded

That Dayton Burns Martin, a for
mer lieutenant in the army, who was
found in bed with a bullet in his
breast Friday morning at his board
ing house in Atlanta and who died
two hours afterward at the Grady
hospital, came to his oath by his own
hand, was the verdict rendered by
coroner's jury at an inquest held at
PooIe's undertaking parlors Satur-
day afternoon.
The investigation by the author
tiles of the facts surrounding Mar
tins death developed a compli-
Gated series of love affairs in which
the dead man was involved with at
least three young women. One OF
these, Hiss Mildred Peacock, of 81
East Cain street, was a witness at
the inquest; letters found in Mar
tins trunk show that he was en-
gagged to marry Miss Zelma East,
of Cairo, ILL.,, while testimony at the
inquest indicated that a young lady
from Carrollton, Ga, also was
principal in one of Martins AFFAIRS.
while the letters were not read at
the inquest, their contents had peeh
noted by the authorities and thereby
strengthened their theory of suicide,
which was substantiated by the YER
dict of the coroner's jury.
At one stage of the lnvestlgation
the theory was advanced that Martin
might have been shot by jealous
rival for the hand of one of his three
sweethearts, but this theory failed to
materialize in the light of facts lat
er brought to light.
The jury was out but ten minutes
and returned a verdict that the De
ceased came to his death by a wound
which was self-inflicted."

MAN-HUNT IS ON
IN WASHINGTON:
NEGROES SOUGHT

WASHINGTON, July 19.-The ma
tons capital is going through the
novelty of man-hunt.
A long series of daylight hold-ups
and robberies,. topped off by FIVE at
has wound up with citizens taking
affairs into their own hands to the
extent of forming q vigilance COM
mittee and by private subscriptions
raising a reward fund which now to-
tails more than $1,000.
One negro under arrest has been
identified by two of the white Wom-
ell, but the police say their evidence
against the man is only circumStan-
tial and they are holding him while
making further Investigations. The
negro made one futile attempt to
escape while under questioning at
police headquarters during which he
denied his guilt.
The man-hunt has proceeded in
the most fashionable part of the city
and close by the homes of many
well-known men. One assault which
took place not far from the cefebrat-
ed Chevy Chase Golf club, aroused
the men of the vicinity and nearby
Maryland and they formed searching
parties, raised a reward fund and
placarded that part of the city with
descriptions Of the negro.
For two days searching parties
combed a woods Immediately at the
entrance. of the National Geological
park, where the negro was said to
have. been seen hiding.~,- The scene
is near Secretary Tumu1ty's house
and the homes of other nationally
known figures are nearby.
Meanwhile, other attacks on white
women by negroes took place in
other sections Of the city and cit
liens associations held meetings at
which the police were denounced for
inefficiency. There were threats that
if the negro should be caught the
searchers would take justice into
their own hands.
The police have counselled respect
for law and order, and maintained
that congress does not appropriate
sufficient funds to make policemen
available to adequately police the
city. Police officers are inclined to
charge the crime wave largely to the
results of boot-legging by negroes
since the dry laws became effective.
So far as is known, the assailant
of at least three women is unac-
counted for. The man held is charg-
ed only with the assault upon two.
There has been some talk of a con-
gressional investigation of the po-
lice.
