TENNESSEE MURDER
Case Ended Four Men Give Lives for
the Ono They Took.

Nashville, Tenn, March 1.-Chas.
Petree, Tom Christmas, Otto Ste
vens and John Mcclure died in the
electric chair at the State prison this
morning for the killing Of George
Lewis, Of Knoxville, on May 3Oth,
1921. The men went to their deaths
with prayers on their lips, and all
except Petree met death calmly. An
hour before the execution Petree be-
came i'll. The men died in the order
given: Petree at els o'clock, Christ
mas at 6.25, Stevens at 6.35, and
Mcclure at 6.40.
The story Of how the four men
were captured and convicted of mur-
dering Lewis, noar Clinton, Tenn,
on May 30th, 1921, is fraught with
dramatic Incidents. The gruesome
murder, the wild chase over the
mountains of East Tennessee for the
outlaws, the subsequent trial and
conviction. all served to engage the
interest of the people OF that section
more, perhaps. than any murder case
for many years.
1t was brought out in the trial
that. having planned the robbery Of
the Oakdale, Tenn, bank, the men
hired taxi driven by andrew Crum-
ley, of Knoxville, Tenn. George Lew
is accompanied Crumley on the trip
which the four men hired the latter
to make.
When the party had reached a
secluded spot near Robertsville. in
Tennessee, according to testimony
by Crumley, Lewis and the driver o;
the taxi were bound and gagged and
beaten over the head with pistol,
and left for dead. Both Of the vic
Tins throats were cut.
The bank robbery failed to ma
terialize. Then followed a search,
which was Joined in by hundreds Of
mountaineers. Two of the men were
arrested in the mountains, and the
other two were later captured at
Hartman, Tenn. The outlaws hal
killed Lewis, but Crumley lived and
it was his testimony that went far
toward convicting the men.
Mountaineers from many sectors
crowded into the little town of Clin-
ton to attend the trial.
Excitement ran high, and for
while violence was threatened. Be-
fore 1t was evident that the defense's
case had collapsed an attempt was
made to show that Petree had pos
sessed low mentality. since his child
hood. This effort failed, and the de-
tense entered plea Of guilty, with
q request for the mercy OF the court.
The four convicted men were sem
tenced on July "a, 1921, to die in
the electric chair on Sept. 16. An
appeal for new trial was later over
ruled and the defense appealed to
the Supreme Court Of Tennessee,
thus suspending temporarily the
electrocution pending tho final de-
cision.

SEAL CENSUS Is
A YEARLY EVENT
NUMBER REDUCED FROM g.
100000 TO $4,000. HAS SPENT
S7.5OO,ooo FOR PROTECTION.

The fur seals of the Pribiloff Is
lands, in the Boring sea, is the only
herd OF wild animals in the world of
which yearly census is taken. Once
they numbered nearly 100000, but
their slaughter was so ruthless that by
1903 the number was less than 100 000
Last years census revealed the exist
ence OF $4,000 seals, and it is believ-
ed that this will be considerably eX-
ceeded when the count is completed
this year.
The fur seal comes to the Pr1bllOf
Islands only in the summer months to
breed and rear its young. AS soon as
the young are born the mother seal
goes out to sea in search OF food. Two
thirds of each year it spends far out
at sea, often making circuit of 5000
miles without touching land. When
the sealers were forbidden to land on
the islands they took to killing the
animals upon their departure from the
Pribiloffs, which meant the loss of
both mother and baby, and brought
the herd nearly to determination.
International agreement now pro-
hibits the taking of seals within a ra-
dius of so miles of the islands, and
the entire ocean is closed to sealing
from May to September. United
States, as owners of the islands, agreed
to compensate the sealers for their
loss, and to give Great Britain and
Japan definite interest in the sealing
industry. In her efforts to protect the
seal America has expended %,500,000,
but it would seem to be money well
spent Figuring $3.50 as the value of
pe1t of this particular seal, which
it will bring in open market, the herd
may be said to represent a value of
$100,000,000 About $4,000 young male
seals are now being taken annually,
which means a yearly revenue to the
American government of $3,75O,0OO,
OF which IS per cent goes to Great
Britain and the same amount to Japan.

WORM WORSE FOE TO
COTTON THAN WEEvIL
FLAT STATEMENT BY SECRE-
TARY WALLACE. PLANS
URGED TO COMBAT.

MEMPHIS, Tenn.-The pink boil
worm is a greater menace to cotton
production than the boil weevil and
the southern planters must mobilize
their efforts to fight it Henry c. Wal
lace, secretary of the United States
department of agriculture, told the
Cotton States Commission here Tues
day
THE boil weevil is already here.
We can only fight him down as best
we can, On the other hand we can
exclude the pink boil worm, but we
must cooperate heart and hand to
do So" he said. The pink boil worm
has started his dirty work in Texas
and state agents are doing their ut
most to eXterninate him"
Entry of Worm.
Secretary Wallace described the en-
try Of the pink boil worm into the
cotton regions, saying that he first APP
peared in Texas and, like the boil wee
vii, people did nothing to chase him
away" 1t will take years, maybe CEN
turtles, Ito exterminate both menaces,"
he declared. Commerce of the entire
country will be impaired if both men
aces to the south's cotton are allow
ed to continue unchecked" He said
that he believed two bugs could bring
about financial catastrophe, as the cot
ton crop has big share in maintain
ing the nations relatively of prices.
THE Cotton States Commission is
in session to draw resolutions for pass
age by state legislatures to regulate
cotton production, that is good idea,
but it will not halt the bugs 1t is more
important that producers organize men
to exterminate the bug" he declared.
Gets Many Walls.
The country has suffered a period
of agricultural depression for two
years" Secretary Wallace declared,
and the department Of agriculture
gets walls from all over the country
each day, many from the south. The
south is getting along better now than
any other section" he said. prices
of cotton indicate that"
Secretary Wallace pledged the CO.
operation of his department toward
better cotton producing conditions and
opened resources of the government
to the Cotton States Commission.

| Hard Work Best Way
To Combat Boil Weevil,
Central President Says
Winburn Issues Pamphlet Setting
Forth Experiences of Farmers in
Georgia and Alabama.

Asserting that it is folly to abandon
cotton, so long as cotton is the chief
money crop of the south, President
w. A. Winburn, of the Central of
Georgia railway, announces the publ
cation Of a pamphlet setting forth the
experience Of Georgia and Alabama
farmers in fighting the boil weevil.
The pamphlet describes, without at
tempting to say which method is best
or without recommending one plan
above another, facts and figures as to
the plans OF combating the weevil.
Mr.. Winburn says that the best
weapons in the fight against the wee
vii are hard work and common sense,
which the farmer himself must sup
ply, but that the railway is ready to
cooperate by furnishing authentic in
formation that the farmer may apply
or adapt This is part of the pro-
gram of the agricultural department
of the Central of Georgia railway,
which since 1911 has been making a
study of practical agriculture and plac-
ing the result of its Investigations at
the disposal of the farmers in its ter
ritory.
The statement acknowledges that
the success of the departments eff
forts has been due to the fine co-opera-
ton of the farmers in Georgia and
Alabama, and says there is a crafty
ing absence of hostility between agri-
culture and transportation.
Copies OF the boil weevi1 pamphlet
may be obtained by application to J,
