Lexington.-Court of Common
Pleas.

Judge Jones Plays
 SIanderers of the
 States Capital City

Montgomery, July 1s.-Judge Wal ter B. Jones told the grand jury of the circuit court which he organized Monday that Montgomery had been slandered by reports which have gone out from the city which indicated that Montgomery was as bad as So6om and Gomorrah of Biblical mo- toriety. He declared that Montgom- cry Is as good a city as any other in Alabama and that while those who have slandered 1t come and go, the city continues to pursue the even tenor of it's way and to deai justice impartially to all who reside within It's borders
 The Judge recited legal history of recent years and said every effort had been made in the past to dismiss the regular legal machinery and to i'm port judges and solicitors and that in one instance at least an effort was made to convict persons of violating the law without referring the evil dence to juries. He also said, the at torney general had sent other solicit tors into the county to replace the regularly elected solicitor and the at torney general himself had come into the court room as the prosecuting officer Concluding his charge, in which he urged the grand jury to do it's full duty and to bring indictments against persons who may have vio- lated the law, regardless of their po- litical or social standing, he said
 Those who falsely and slanderously assail Montgomery come and go, but our old capital city of the state goes on ever pursuing the even tenor of her way, obeying the laws, doing Justice, building character and men, building homes and industry and building city which Is the peer of any city in the United States-a city of which no man or woman ever need be ashamed and whose pride 1t will be to write after his or her name, "Of Montgomery"
 Judge Jones also told the grand jury that any persons who may have searched the homes and effects of citizens of Montgomery without pro- per search warrants are guilty of violating the law, and should be in- dicted He did not say to whom he re- ferred but it was accepted as directed against the recent activities of the Montg emery He said no magistrate has the right to issue a search war rant until he is satisfied from evil dence submitted to him that there Is probable cause to believe the per son whose premises are to be search ed has violated law.

GRAND JURY PROBING
 TREATMENT OF IRWIN
By Assoclafnd Prnss

Miami, Fla, July.-The. Dade coun- ty grand jury, which convened today, began an investigation of the kid naping last night of the Rev. Philip S. Irwin, white pastor of a negro church, who was whipped, tarred and festhered and then dumped out of an automobile in the business section of Miami.
 Irwin's alleged doctrines of racial equality were said to have provoked the attack. In his charge to the jury, Judge Framing said
 The court suggests that, while this country allows freedom of speech one exercising this constitu- tional privilege should advise him self or bear in mind the time honor cd traditions of people"
 Irwin was given 4S hours to leave the country by the eigbt masked men who seized him but, he declared to- day he would remain in Miami and continued in his pulpit.
 However" he added, they won't find me so easily If they come after me again
 Irwin told the grand jury he would not be able to identify all of the men. He said he was a British subject but declared he had no intention of re- porting the matter to the British vice consul here, saying it would be an insult to the American flag if he appealed to him for protection.

ELLISON LETTER ID
 LLOYD GEORGE |S
 PUT IN RECORD hV NLOUEAD
Former President Told Pre- mier America Would Not
 Permit Cancellations of
 British Debt to U. s.
Nv Associated Press

Washington July 16.-Pres!dent wilson wrote Premier Lloyd George ef Great Britain last october that it vas highly improbable that either the Congress or popular opinion of this country will ever permit can oeliation of any part of the debt Of the British government to the United a,ates in order to induce the British i.ovsrnment to remit in whole or in art the debt to Great Britain of rance or any other of the allied Governments"
 An excerpt from MT, Wilson's let l9r, replying to one written by the Lritish premier two months earlier In which reference was made to sug- &estions that the interallied debts he cancelled, was made public today lor the first time through insertion in thA Congressional Record by Sen stor Lodge of Massachusetts, repub- .ican leader of the Senate MT. Lodge explained that 1t was submitted to tas foreign relations committee or which he is chairman, by David $. Houston, Secretary of the Treasury under MT. Wilson.
 The British premier further was informed by President Wilson that Il also was highly improbable that either Congress or the American public would consent to cancella- ton or reduction in the debt of any of the allied governments as an in ducement towards a practical settle ment of the reparation claims" MT. " ilson pointed to past rejections of the sugg gestion of inter- governmental oebt cancellation and added:
 The views of the United States government have not changed and it IS not prepared to consent to the re- mission of any part of the debt of

 Great Britain to the United States"
 Warning that the Tong delay which has occurred In the funding of the demand obligations is already embar- rassing the treasury, which will find itself compelled to begin to collect back and current interest If speedy progress is not made with the fund ing, Mir. Wilson stated that unless funding arrangements were agreed upon Tn the present state of opinion here, there is likely to develop a dan gerous misunderstanding"
 The making public of the Wilson letter was only cone development in the allied debt situation during the day.
 Secretary Mellon, appearing before the senate finance committee to urge enactment of the administration bill to confer broad powers In debt re- funding, was told by Senator Curtis or Kansas member of the commit tee and republican Senate whip, that republicans and democratic senators alike had stated that they would not vote for refunding bill which dii not require the settlements to be re. ported to Congress for ratification MT. Mellon said "it would be illogt- car to amend the bill so as to "Ijmh tue treaSury's authority"

VELVET BEAN TARIFF
 IS UNDER ADVISEMENT

Montgomery, July 1S.-(Special.) .)- Inability of the railroads and cotton oil mills to agree on rates for the transportation of velvet beans caused the public service comm ssion to receive testimony and take the case roads submitted a tentative tariff on velvet beans recently following the issuance of citation of the commits sion and announced that it was prob able an agreement could be made with those who desired lower rates. At the hearing the railroads announced that no agreement was possible and that they desired a decision of the commission. They then filed a sched- ule of rates which they announced carried a reduction of approximately Is per cent on line hauls and 30 per cent on hauls by two or more lines. Representatives of the cotton oil mills insisted that the commission establish the same rates on velvet beans and velvet bean products as are now effective on cotton seed and cotton seed products. Representa- llNeS ol the CnamDer or commerce or Mobile, Montgomery, Selma and Gads- den appeared in order to see that the rates established would be of benefit to their organizations and persons in their trade territory. The railroads and cotton oil men submitted a large number of exhibits in support of their positions and the commission announced that a decision would be rendered after an investigation had been made of the exhibits and the evidence had been transcribed.

Arnold Rothstein of New York, agai was brought into the case as the man whom Abe Attell quoted as be ing willing to finance the deal. Al the grand jury investigation, Roth b stein testified, but was not indicted
 The defendants sat silent in one part of the room, paying the closet | attention to the testimony. particu ; larly when their former boss. Charles A. Comiskey president of the Whi5a Sox club, took the stand. It was at this point that a physical clash ap~ peared imminent. Ben Short, de fense counsel. in cross examining Mr Comiskey asked him if in his pla ing days years ago, he had nat jumped from the National League tc the Brotherhood.
 Heated Argument
 The argument became so heated that the "Old Roman" rising in the witness chair, shook his fist at MT. Short and shouted.
 Don't you dare to say I ever jumped a contract! I never did that in my life.
 After numerous other remarks, Mir. Comiskey was quieted and sank back in the witness chair seemingly great ly fatigued.
 The defense won al point when Judge Friend ruled that the state could make no mention in it's opening statement of the grand jury confes- sion of Cicotte, Williams and Jack son. The ruling, however, is subject to change

JUSTICES MAY ISSUE
 SEARCH WARRAHT FOR
 ANY BEAT OF COUNTY

Montgomery July -(Speciai.)- Justices of the peace may issue search warrants for any other beats of their counties under an opinion given tho state law enforcement department to- day by Lamar Field, assistant attor- ney general, who said the question was settled by the supreme court Of Alabama in the famous Girard liquor cases several years ago. In that case the supreme court held that a justice of peace need not confine his activi- ties to his own beat in the issuance of search warrants, but may issue them for the premises of any person in the county in which he has resi- dence.
 The opinion was procured for a case in Montgomery county where s. F. Gum, Justice of the peace at Capitol Heights, had declined to issue further search warrants for premises in Montgomery, but W. c. Austin, chief of the law enforcement department, said this was the direct issue in Mo bile county where an investigation was made by grand jury of authority of c. J. Bowen, whose jurisdiction IS in another beat, to issue warrants for the inspection of premises in Mo- bile.
