Aubrey Lee Nickels
Faces Early Trial

DELAND, Fla, April 8.--One oil
the most notable cases to be set for
trial during the sessions of the Vo-
lusia county circuit court which con-
vened here today viii be that of Au-
hey Lee Nickels, 23-year-old Caro-
lima boy charged with criminal as
sault and thrice saved from the hang
mans moose by arguments of his
friends.
The state supreme court several
months ago granted fNickels a new
trial after the state board of par
dOus had refused to commute his
sentence of death, on the grounds
that he did not receive a fair trial
when he was first convicted
His fight for the new trial was
one of the most spectacular ever
staged in the state. Thousands of per-
sons, convinced that he did not re-
ceive fair hearing. in that, it is al
legged by his friends, he was forced
to enter a plea of guilty through fear
of mob violence, have kept up the
contest against his execution.

Greatest Sugar Crop
World Ever Produced
Forecast This Season

WASHINGTON, April 8.-A rec
ord world sugar crop is forecast in
reports received by the department
Of agriculture, indicating a produc-
ton of q 100000 short tons this year
as compared with 20,40O,000 short
tons last year and the previous rec
ord crop of 21,000,0 900 short tons in
1913-1914.
This years forecast indicates a
cane production of II per cent and
a sugar beet production Of 20 per
cent, whereas in 1913-1914 nearly so
per cent Of the total supply was
beet sugar, of which more than 80
per cent was of European origin.
Cane sugar production increased
rapidly during and after the war to
compensate for the decreased beet
sugar production in Central Europe
European countries, the statement
said, are expected to regain their
pre-War position in sugar production,
but there is no indication of any in
tentiOn of cane sugar producers to
give up the dominant position in the
world sugar market which they have
attained in the last ten years. Con-
sequently, agricultural officials say,
sharp comp petition for markets is to
be expected within the next few
years between producers of cane and
beet sugar.
Beet sugar production this year is
expected to be about 100000 tons;
the Cuban crop Of cane sugar is fore
cast at 4,271, 900 tons. The Louisi-
ana crop is short but is more than
offset by the larger beet sugar pro
duCtiOn Of continental United States.

Republican national committeeman
from that state, attempted to use
his political influence with former
Postmaster General Will Hays and
other governmental officials to have
the postal investigation of the land
sales dropped and prosecutions
