CHEMIST PERFECTS

Claims Positive Remedy for b.

Practical Tests.

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 1s.-William
A. Hall. chemist OF this city, an
nounced today that he had perfected
mercury poisoning, following tests
that have extended over five years.
BY request, the composition OF the
nntidote has been cabled to the court
physician OF India and Canadian doc
tors. Mr.. Hall announced that during
the trial period between fifteen and
twenty persons In Detroit who had
taken corrosive sublimate had re-
sponded successfully to the treat
ment and that he had had only one
death.
In the single case lost the antidote
was not administered until forty

Unfortunately, something occurred
which was quite beyond the castles
control. That something was the
disclosure of the proceedings Of Cen
eral Dyer, at Amritsar. in India.
General Dyer prohibited an Indian
nationalist meeting. The inhabi-
tants disregarded the proclamation
and held the meeting. General
Dyer saw that II he took this de-
fiance laying down he would look
like a fool. He doesn't seem to have
foreseen what he looks like now,
after asserting himself very effect
ually. He went to the meeting with
a force of magazine rifles, and pour
ed ten minutes rapid fire into the
crowd.
This operation was complete
success. The meeting was broken mp,

trumpet. The wounded were not
succored by their conquerors. The
general, whose logic Is sound and
precise, remarked that "there were
hospitals," and that IL was for the
civil authorities to clear away tho
debris.
/ must admit there was nothing
incorrect in this military operation.
The Washington times., 1920-01-18

1t is the business OF the military to
kill people who will not obey the
government. In ordering his troops
to "shoot good and strong" General
Dyer's conduct was entirely dutiful
and proper TO his profession, though
his grammar was deplorable. Had
he hesitated to shoot, the government
would have fallen into derision and
contempt.
But that was not all. There was a
certain street in which an offense had
been committed, and along this street
General Dyer insisted that all Indians
should crawl on their hands and
knees. Now this was not a military
operation. The fact that II was done
by a military officer no more consti-
tutes it one than the hamstringing OF
an Indian would be a surgical oper-
alton II it were done by doctor.

PROMISE MORE ARRESTS.
IN QUADRUPLE KILLING

AMORY, Miss, Jan 1S.-While
Charles Marshall. accused of the mur-
der of Robert Miller, farmer. his son
and daughter, and the latter's baby,
was being spirited away today in
order to prevent mob violence. Off
GERS investigating the case conferred
and promised more arrests.
That at least one other man shared
in the crime was the statement of
Prosecuting Attorney Talmadge b.
Tubb, after he had come here from
Aberdeen, Miss, to take charge of
the case.
The center Of interest today was
Pearl Miller, the thirteen-year-o
girl, who Is the only survivor of the
murdered family.
Calm and determined on revenge,
the little backwoods girl discussed
the case with newspaper men at the
home OF the chief of police of Amory.
"My father and brother went out
doors when the dogs started bark
ing" she said. There was a terrific
explosion that tore away part OF the
house and knocked down the chin

shot, and my father fell dead, and
less than a second later there was
another shot, fred through a window
on the opposite side OF the house, and
my brother fell"
Ofttimes in tears, the girl told how
she ran into the next room, where
her sister, Fannie Green Miller, was
holding her baby. A third shot, she
said, killed her sister, and as she fell
on the floor the baby started to crawl
around on the floor.

forestall service OF the warrant The
officials. therefore. are anxious to
serve the warrant before Martens car
leave the Capitol building.
Martens and his friends are silent
about what he plans to do, although
the self-styled Ambassador on many
occasions has expressed a willingness
to receive agents OF the Depart.
ment of Justice as soon as he has
completed his testimony.

Battle Of wits.
The situation has come to be re-
garded as a sort OF game between
Martens and the Justice Department
agents. a battle of wits between them
Martens, in the opinion of most Of
fcials. won the first victory when he
dropped out of sight two weeks ago
at the time the warrant for his arrest
was FIRST issued. Justice agents
hunted for him several days, although
he was known to be in Washington
Martens kept out OF sight until he
had been served with the writ from
the Senate subcommittee callingg or
him to testify. Justice officials ther
decided not to serve their warrant
until after the testimony, lest they
become involved with the Senate
Learning of this, Martens then ap-
peared openly at a hotel here, where
his soviet bureau had establish ed
headquarters. He received visitors
granted interviews too newspaper
writers, and posed for the movies.
