WOMEN TO COMBAT

A general meeting to discuss methods
of combating the high cost of living
is being held Monday afternoon at the
Chamber of Commerce under the aus
pices of the Women's Central commit
tee, which is composed OF representa-
tives from most Of the women's clubs

That club Saturday adopted resolu-
tions asking all women OF Memphis to
pledge themselves not to buy articles
of clothing at prices high enough to
carry the war tax; to refrain from
buying high priced foodstuffs or vege-
tables and fruit out of season, and to
adopt a budget system for household
expenditures.
The execution of this plan is to be
left to the central committee, and it is
believed that II that or similar plan

AS TRIAL NEARS
Rumored Alleged Murderer Of
Miller Family at Amory,
Miss, Will Seek to Have In

TuPELO Miss. March go. (spl)-
IL Is rumored here that when court
cpnvenes in the morning attorneys OF
Chas. Marshall and his brother and IA
Their charged with the murder Of the
Miller family near Amory will make a
motion to quash the indictment, but so
FAR no definite information has been OBJ
tanned as to the grounds for the mo-,
ton.
Charles Marshall and his father and
brother are in the county jail and a
special guard is standing watch day and
night. Charles Marshall was brought
here from Jackson Friday and the ia
Their and brother arrived under guard
sunday Everything Is quiet and no
trouble is expected.
This morning the men were conducted
from the jail to the courthouse and al
though large crowd gathered no
threats were uttered
Charles Marshall looks TO be about
80 years old His brother appears older
and the father appears to be about 65
or 20 years old.
Capt. George b. Paine and son, Thorn
as Ffte Paine, who are leading the
prosecution, will arrive this afternoon,
together with Pearl May Miller, the
only surviving member Of the murdered
family.
Perhaps no case in the history OF
Monroe county has created more eX-
element or shocked the public con-
science more than this case, and for
which the Marshals are to be arraigued
at the bar Of justice and tried for thelI
lives before jury OF Lee county cit-
Gems.
Shortly after nightfall on the night OF
the tragedy, man appeared at the
window OF the Miller home, and with
out warning shot Miller dead, then
killed his son and daughter in the same
way, after which he entered the home
and killed the infant child belonging tc
the murdered girl and II which Mar
shall was reputedf to be the father, and
then destroyed the house by fire. Pear
May Miller, the 13-year- old daughter Of
the elder Miller, had been away from
home for some time, and had returned
on the afterHoon before the killing.
The ASSASSIN did not seem to know
that she was on the place, and she wal
therefore able to make her escape By
climbing into the loft and out onto this
| roof Of the building, which had beer
wrecked by AZ explosion q dynamit,
70 the ground and making her way Y
| the nearest neighbor's house, wher'
ahe gave the alarm. She accused Char
Y ley Marshall Oh the crime, and he wa

| Public sentiment ran so high that 1
| was necessary to remove him from tn,
| Monroe county jail to Jackson, wher,
! he has remained ever since excep
when he was brought to Aberdeen To-
| his committing trial before the justic,
