DIAL CONTINUES )
FIGHT ON TOLBERT

Laurens, Oct. 19.--Senator N. Il.
Dial was this afternoon advised of the
recess appointment of Joseph w. Toll
bert as United States marshal for
the Western district of South Caro-
lima. Senator Dial has opposed Tol.
bsrt's nomination from the first and
he indicated tonight that he was not
through with the protest.
The senator wired District Judge
Watkins protesting the qualifying of
Tolbeft. citing the fact that the ap-
pointee has been convicted in the
United States courts Of criminal acts
and in all probability he Is disqnai-
fed to take the oath and hold Office
under the constitution. The senator
also wired Gen. NJ. L. Bonham to take
such steps as necessary to prevent
Tolbert from holding this important
post. He pointed out to General Bon
ham that unless Tolbert has been
pardoned, he. ean not qualify for the
Office 4and the senator says that he
doess heS 6SW of any such pardon
having Been granted. The conviction
Of .Tolbert referred to was fo- al:cg
ed endbeszlement and larceny after
trust according to the records, says
the senator. Senator Dial says that
when Tolbert's nomination was sent
to the senate he objected to conir-
nation wherespon the case was re-
ferred 10 subcommittee of three
members Of the judiciary committee.
Charges were filed and the committee
was urged to have Tolbert come be-
fore it for hearing of the case, as
it was the intention of the senator to
cross-examine him before the com
mittee. A demand for committee
proceeding was made several times.
but Mr.. Tolbert did not appear, al
though this was urged by the sena-
tor.
Considering these grave charges,
says Senator Dial, which were un-
answered and unanswerable, he con-
siders it an outrage to the decent
people Of South Carolina for the Re-
publican administration to try to
force q man Of such character on
this district and state. -
Continning, Senator Dial said that
il Judge Watkins allows Tolbert to
qualify, possibly all his official scts

DOUBLE MURDER
STILL A MYSTERY

New Brunswick, N. j., Oct. 10 (By
the Associated Press) The latest in
vestigation into the double staying of
the Rev. Edward Wheeler Hall and
Eleanor r. Mills, choir singer, which
the authorities have been guarding
with such secrecy that they have con-
sidered it essential to remove their
official headquarters to Bound Brook,
N. j., leads directly into the home Of
zone of the leading families Of New
Brunswick," a county official said to-
day.
This official declined to permit his
identity TO be revealed in connection
with the statement or the further
comment that it was on the promise
of this new investigation that Gov
ernor Edwards last week granted the
county authorities several days grace
in which to continue their inquiry
without state supervision. The official
is known to be very close to the coun-
ty prosecutor and remains the one
local official in any way connected
with the case in whom citizens of
New Brunswick appear to repose any
substantial confidence.
'1The authorities are in possession
Of something with which the public
has not been acquainted and which is
being jealousy guarded" he said.
I'VE all sincerely believe that it con-
tains the solution Of the crime"
Less than "a hours after it became
known that the county prosecutors,
through the obtaining of signed state
ments, had built up theory that the
couple were slain in vacant shed
more than four miles from the spot
where their bodies were found, the
authorities were ridiculing the story
tonight.
"Were investigating it, yes" said
Prosecutor Beekman when he was
asked about this development, which
concerned two autoists who reported
hearing screams for help coming from
the barn. ut seems highly improba-
BILE, however,"
Examination of the floor of the
building, which was formerly used as
school, is said to have failed to re-
veal any trace Of bloodstains.
Asked about the report that two
handkerchiefs and combs had beer

to reach the Phillips farm, where they
were found.
The authorities admitted they wer'
attempting to trace the diary Of Mrs
Mills, which it is said, she gave to th'
rector in exchange for his. They ais
said consideration was being given t.
the possibility that Mrs. Mills diar
in possession of the rector had been
starting point of the crime, and tina
the establishing of the actual time o
it's discovery among his papers is con
sidered of great value in the case.
