DIR. SAGGUS GETS OVATION
AFTER HIS LIBERATION
ON CHARGE OF MURDER

because he wanted to know the
truth. 81 am not yet satisfied with
the investigation" Mr.. Walker said,
land I believe another analysis
should be made of the viscera as a
check. I want to clear my mind Of
the suspicious 1 have had"
A few moments later the father
Of DR.. Saggus came up to Mr.. Walk
er and shook hands with him, the
two talking together for several min.
utes. Immediately following the re-
lease of DR.. Saggus, a conference
was held at the Columbus inn, by
Solicitor M. L. Felts, of WarrentOni
w. M. Howard, of Augusta; r. E.
Walker, Of Atlanta, and Detective
7. g. Sturdivant, Of Atlanta, the lat
ter being the man who worked up
the case against Saggus.
Mr.. Felts refused to divulge the
results of this conference, further
than to state that the investigation
of the case would continue. FL:
would not outline the method Of pro
cedure agreed upon.
The impression gathered from
conversation with the prosecution Of
ficers is that a second test of the
Viacera from Charles w. Wilbanks
body will be made. This analysis
will probably be made by DR.. Carl
ton Maryott, of Augusta. Asked
about DR.. Maryott making an
analysis, r. C. Norman, counsel for
the defendant, stated that he would
welcome an analysis by DR.. Maryott
ard added that the only reason the
Augusta physician was not allowed
to proceed with the analysis in the
frs place was because he did not
feel that anything could be gained
by such a test since DR.. Everhardt
hal been unable to find any trace
of poison in the viscera of Mrs. Sag
gus, and only minute quantity in
that of Mr.. Wilbanks. Mr.. Norman
said he considered DR.. Maryott one
OF the most capable chemists in the
entire country, and knew that a full
and accurate report could be expect
ed from him.
There was much speculation here
today as to what method Of proce
cure the state would adopt in the
case. Mr.. Norman pointed out tina:
the report of DR.. Everhardt had
knocked the bottom out of the
states case"

WASHINGTON, Ca, July g.
Twenty-six minutes after the case
of DIR. j. G.. Saggus, charged with
murder, had been sounded in Mag
istrate Harry Smiths court here
Saturday morning, the Harlem
physician walked from the court
room a free man.
Fifteen minutes later he was
speeding out Of Washington in l..
E. Blanchard's automobile, with his
home at Harlem as his destina-
ton. DR.. Saggus had been sep
arated from his wife and children
nearly two weeks, and he lost no
time in getting home.
The liberation of the Harlem
physician was the occasion of a
veritable love feast. Men crowded
around him by the score, wringing
his hand and placing their arms
affectionately across his shoulders.
Obadiah Saggus, the aged father
embraced his son with tears in his
eyes. So great was the old fathers
joy, that for a few moments he
was incoherent.
Sam Saggus, brother Of the de-
PENDANT, was also on hand to greet

delegation of nearly forty citizens.
They said they came to Washing
ton to get the doctor and take him
home. A few nights ago, demon
stration was put on in Harlem in
DR.. Saggus' behalf, the parade last
ins until after midnight. The Har-
lem folks said they knew the doc
tor was innocent. that they wanted
him back home and that they
needed him.
A striking picture was the meet
ing on the court house lawn, after
the trial, of DR.. Saggus and r. E.
Walker, the brother of the first
Mrs. Saggus, whom the doctor was
charged with poisoning. The men
shook hands warmly, and their
hands remained clasped as they
conversed for a few moments. w.

joined them.
Mr.. Walker said afterwards that
he made it plain that he was not

CIVIL WAR RACES
THROUGHOUT DUBLIN

DUBLIN, July Civil war
ragged unabated in Dublin tonight.
Free state forces laid seige to
rebels, who held a block of build
ings on Sackville street. Assault on
the last insurgent stronghold start
ed late this afternoon.
Eamonn de Valera, in disguise.
was reported to be personally di-
recting the rebel defense from
headquarters in the Gresham hotel.
Insurgents threw up barricades
across principal streets, using COM
Wandered automobiles and wagons
as in the 1916 rebellion. Holes were
knocked in the walls of buildings,
permitting the besieged rebels to
communicate under cover.
Dublin felt considerable alarm to-
night over the prospect of a city
wide food shortage.
Shippers were active north Of the
Liffey. Free state bands moved
against sharp-shooters' nests, mop
ping up.
In spite of the fierce fighting
that is in progress, officials of the
free state regarded the situation
as favorable. They pointed to the
facts that the Four Courts, the
rebel stronghold, had been cap
tured, and that Rory O'Connor, in
surgent leader, was in custody.
A free state communique stated
that ITO rebels have been captured
since the civil war broke out three
days ago. The insurgent casualties
since that time have been Slight,
while 33 free staters have been
killed and fifty seriously wounded.
Motor lorries, bringing up free
state troops, were ambushed to-
day in various parts of the city.
One was completely wrecked, and
several soldiers of the provisional
government injured. when it struck
a mine in front of the Talbot no.
tel, a rebel stronghold.
Severe fighting was reported
from various parts of the south,
and in county Louth, north of Dub
lin.
insurgents blew up a railway
bridge in Louth, cutting rail com.
munications between Belfast and
Dublin. Railroad lines south of
Drogheda were torn up to prevent
movement of free state reinforce
mentS.
Rebels in Drogheda, driven from
one barracks by a free state charge,
seized adjoining buildings and
poured a heavy fire into the loyal
troops headquarters. Volleys were
exchanged with some casualties.
In Cork, rebel activity was pro.
nounced. The offices of the Cork
Examiner were seized by insur,

Of government figures fixing the
condition Of the growing crop at
71.2, the acreage at 1882, 900 and
the estimated yield at 11,065,O00
bales.
July, October and December con-
tracts in New York passed the 3d.
cent level for the first time in more
than two years and spot cotton here
was up 1925 a bale at 1890, just
fifty cents bale less than "a cents.
The gain in New York was from
1925 to $50 a bale, and in New
Orleans the advance over the pre-
vious close was nearly SO a bale.
the limit fixed for fluctuations in
one days trading.
Spots in New York were quoted at
1915, up ITO points, and in New
Orleans the gain was 100 points at
$3.50.
The condition of the crop in Geor-
gia was fixed at So per cent with
4,129,0O0 acres planted. Figured at
a basis Of 1875 pounds per acre, the
potential yield for this state is l.
032 ESQ bales against 100000 bales
last year and about 400 900. the
year before.
Taking these figures as a basis
for arriving at the value Of Geor-
gia's crop with each 500-pound bale
worth SHIPS, the money value of
the yield is approximately $115 000,-
900, more than twice what the same
crop would be worth at prices pre-
vailing at this time year ago.
Figured by the same method the
value Of the entire crop is around
$3.50, 100000.
The market opened at only slight
gains over the previous close and
marked time until the report was
flashed to the floor of the exchange
at 1870, Atlanta time. The publica
ton Of the figures, far below the
average of private estimates, was a
signal for rush of buying orders
and with shorts rushing to cover
sales, values doomed to new high
levels within a few minutes.
The trade was expecting a condi-
ton around Is per cent and an
acreage Of something like 100000
or more. Last estimates of the prob
able yield had been revised as a re-
suit of better weather throughout
the belt and some were as high as
l1,5O0,000 bales. which it appears
was the expectation of the trade,
With government figures half mil
lion bales less than this and such a
small increase in acreage over last
wear. the report proved real ammu
milton for bulls and disaster for
bears who were caught in the ian,
ana forced to buy in contracts at
heavy losses.

DEADLOCKED MINE
CONFERENCE QUITS
UNTIL NEXT WEEK

WASHINGTON, July Shy the
Associated Observation-Disclosures over
a basis of negotiating a settlement
of the bituminous coal strike, the
conference of operators and United
Mine Workers officials today accept
ed the suggestion Of government rep
resentatives today, and adjourned
until next Monday.
When the adjournment was taken
at ITO o'clock this afternoon after
two joint sessions and an interme-
date separate session of operators
and miners, Secretary Davis, one OF
the government representatives, said
no agreement had beeh reached, no
committee to continue the discus
sions in the meantime appointed,
and no specific program for the fu-
ture discussed, although many diff
ferent plans had been proposed.
Asked as to the indications for a
successful ultimate outcome of the
conference, which assembled Satur-
day at the behest Of President Har-
ding, Mr.. Davis said with the agree
ment of Secretary Hoover, the other
government representative, that las
Tong as we hold them together there
is hope"
Harding May Act
The government so far as could be
learned did not present any PROPOSE.
ton as to basis Of ending the strike
which has been in progress since
April 1, but there was a belief in
some quarters that when the confer
ence reassembled Monday President
Harding, who then will have return
ed from his Ohio trip, will lay a
government proposal before the con-
ferees.
The adjournment, it was said in
government circles, will allow both
the operators and the miners an OPP
portunity to talk with their col
leagues in the fields. John L. Lewis,
president of the United Mine Work
ers, will remain in Washington, and
it is considered likely that Alfred
M. Ogle, president of the National
Coal association and head of the OPP
orators, will do likewise.
Prior to the meeting it wa evident
that the operators intended to force
some sort of conclusion today with
out yielding to their refusal to meet
the union for the purpose of maxim ,
up a national or semi-national wage
scale. From the view of John l..
Lewis. president CT the United Mine
Workers. it was evident that the
miners consider it necessary to pro-
long the strike rather than agree to
negotiate for district wage scale :
with the operators.
To Reopen Mines
At a lengthy meeting by them
selves the bituminous operators rep
resentatives prepared a resolution In
cooperating 1'leir view. and 1t was
understood that if the joint confer
ence broke up today the operators
had been determined to open large
number of union mines in S&"mer
union territory on a non-union basis
on Wednesday. The principal prop
erty understood to be ready fol-
opening was a 5,00O-ton daily capact.
ty mine of the Plttsburg coal com
psny in Pennsylvania. Various 9th
err mines in strategic point
throughout the central Goa! field
were also understood to be selected
for immediate operation. The old
wage scale calls for base wage Of
$3.50 per day under ground. while
the mines that will open are expect.
ed to offer to miners the 1917 scale,
which has a base Of about SIS a day.
