Probe Being Made
Of Doctors Death

Albany, October 1s.-(Special.)-
Any possibility that the death OF
DR.. NJ. w. Murray. local physician
whose body was found on the rail
road tracks near Columbia, Tenn,
last week. was other than accidental
will be gifted to the bottom. 1t was
declared by close friends of the fam

Admission was made that W. V.
Davidson. former chief OF police Of
Albany. has been making an inves-
tigation of the case for the family.
Just where Mr.. Dayidson's investiga-
ton has lead him and what they have
disclosed are not known here, 1t was
declared, but a formal report from
the detective was expected within the
next "a hours.
Rumors have been current on the
streets here today that ono or more
arrests have been made in conneo-
ton with the PHYSICIANS death. but
the family lacked confirmation of
these reports.
DR.. Murray is known to have had
approximately $3.50 in his possession
when he left here and 1t is declared
that when section hands picked up
his body, only few coins were found
in his pocketS This circumstance
and the reported difficulty DIR. Muir

DAWES STILL SAYS /
WHAT He THINKS.
Picturesque General Returns
Again to Washington.
CrumpIeS Roosevelt
BY HUGH w. ROBERTS
Washington Bureau. The Agc-Herald,
500 Davidson Building.

Washington. October 1S.-(Spe-
c!a1)-Practically everybody OBJ
serves the sham in official life, but
Gen. Charles Grosvenor Dawes is
about the only one who will give
tongue to his observations.
General Dawes has returned for the
time being to Washington. Two of
his remarks stand out. The first was
to the effect that the average cabinet
officer knows little of his job, and
that for effective action, the public,
as well as the executive and Con-
gress. must depend on the chief
clerk.
No one has disputed that remark.
1t is generally known that the cabi-
net officer is named either to re-
fleet brllliance, or, at least, kind
OF elamor on the administration, to
repay political obligations, or to
bring strength to the ticket in sub
sequent campaigns.
General Dawes also spoke of what
he termed the "cowardice" of the
average member OF Congress. He re-
ferred to the "subserviency" of the
politician in Congress to the demands
of little organizations with power to
vote. He pointed out the blind sup
port OF Congressman of the bonus.
and their refusal to devise means of
paying tho bonus, and their refusal
to make the bonus payable only to
those who heard the guns roar. He
bersted the congressman who stand
for blocs rather than for the repub-
lie and all it's people.
1t was a remarkable statement by
General Dawes. No member of Con-
gress has challenged 1t. although, In
private, many have wRxed indignant
in as strong language as that invari-
ably used by Dawes.
Tho general did not speak in gen
eralities He called names. For in
stance. he told OF a difference which
developed between Assistant Secre-
tary Roosevelt and himself. He
asked Roosevelt to transfer certain
equipment TO another department for
the purpose OF reducing expenses.
Roosevelt declined. Dawes sent for
him and demanded to know IL he
was willing to go to the mat with
him before the President. Roosevelt
Is alleged to have crumpled up. thus
defaming the beligerent significance
of the Roosevelt name.
Dawes Is not very popular with Of
fieial Washington. 1t is Indicated
that the average cabinet officer, sem
ator and representative prefers to
have the people 10 believe him wholly
great. To them II is said to be high
~ disconcerting that Dawes never
loses opportunity to point out their
feet of clay.

HARDING WANTS TO
RETIRE, BUT MAY
Be NOMINATED
Purchase of His Old Home
stead Leads to Rumor, But
He Will Likely Be
Drafted

Washington. October 1s.-(Specialo
Washington is thrilled for the second
time in recent months by the report
that at the conclusion of his term
President Harding will retire to pri-
vate life. Gossip to this effect is
predicated on the tact that Mr.. Hard
ing recently purchased the farm In
Morrow county. Ohio, on which he
was born.
BY the best posted men in wash
ington-those who are closest asso-
ciated with the President and those
who. having long judged human ma
tupre, know the mantle report Is
discounted in It's entirety. In the
first place. 1t Is argued. Harding
naturally desires to serve as long as
any other man has served. In the
second place. 1t is pointed out that
Harding would not know how TO re-
fuse were republican leaders again
to draft him for reasons OF expe-
diency.
At the same time, the report Is not
without interest. Possibly the most
diverting pastime in Washington to-
day is watching the countenances of
those whose stars might ascend were
Harding actually to eliminate him
