B Solicitor Closes With Appeal to Jury
Not to Disregard
m Evidence.
9L Birmingham, Oct. 21.?A verdict of
|H * not guilty was returned by the jury
shortly after 10 o'clock tonight in
HE the case of Rev. Edwin R. StephenH
eon, tried for the killing of Father
BB James E. Coyle. The jury had been
n| out since 6 o'clock.
* ThA ind-totnriATit nf the grand iury
I* - against the preacher, the pistol wihieh
he is alleged to have used in shoots
I ' ' ing father Coyle shortly after the
priest had joined his daughter, Ruth,
and Pedro Gussman, a Puerto Rican
& Catholic, in wedlock, and a pair of
r suspenders worn by Stephenson at the
time of the shooting, which were
offered as evidence at the trial, were
handed to the jurymen as they retired,
r m The dosing argument for the state
was made by Solicitor Joseph R. Tate,
who contended -that Ruth Gussman,
if Stenhenson's daughter, was 18 years
W ^ old and therefore had the right to
b choose her relation for herself. In
* answer to the attack of Hugo Black,
} defense attorney who preceded him,
f -upon a state witness, Mr. Tate deHf
* clared that all it was necessary for
III , the state to prove was the death of
??!;. Father Coyle, that it occurred-in Jeffftrsnn
cmmtv. show -the means of the
if killing and that the shooting occurred
before the grand jury had indicted
the accused.
' Tate declared that the defense -had
offered a number of excuses for the
shooting but said none of them were
sufficient. Regarding the self-defense
the solicitor held that the defense
would hare to prove that the defendant
was free from fault in bringing
on the fight, that he was in immanent
danger of death or bodily harm and "
that there was no reasonable avenue
/. of escape for him.
' The solicitor declared that had the
priest had hold of the defendant's
onononrfprs n* the time of the shoot
g. OUWJtrv**v^w. M ?v ?
K - Ing, they would have been so near
G| each other that there would have been
B* powder bums on Father Coyle. He
K: declared that it was peculiar that"
both court and county officials were
Hp . "iaU on the side of the defendant."
K "If you go Into the jury room and '
mi:,**.. hick out the evidence," he said, "and
K Tender a verdict of not guilty you
f will have all the narrow-minded, fuzM
zy-necked people pat you on the back, 1
hut the remainder of your lives your
(conscience will sting you."
/ Judge Fort began his charge ten
minutes after Mr. Tate concluded his
i argument. He declared it was in the
Jury's power to find the defendant
either guilty or innocent of murder
in the second degree, manslaughter in
the first degree or manslaughter in
the second degree.

LEAGUE LIVE CAMPAIGN ISSUE.
Former President lie ported as Saying
League is Going Concern.
Washington, Oct. 22.?The buggaboo
of the League of Nations wiil
stalk the candidates for president
in 1924, former President Wilson believes,
it was learned tonight.
The league will be one of the big
issues in the campaign, he 'holds.
This was obtained by a prominent
Democrat who talked with Wilson
within the last few days. He said
Wilson viewed the ratification of the
separate treaty wuth Germany as a
disgraceful act. Wilson believes that
the league issue is still alive and expects
that public sentiment will begin
to swing more markedly toward it
from now on^
He holds that the league is a 'going
concern and that ultimately the
United States must become a member
of it. j
Wilson did not discuss the approaching
armament conference.
Plans for the congressional campaign
next fall were discussed with
Wilson briefly. He was advised that
the "full dinner pail" is likely to be
the chief issue. Thousands of mjn

business will not have re^ovsred from
the present siege of dep ? ion. Democratic
party leaders believe. They
see a gradual improvement in business
conditions but do not expect it to
be sufficient by next fall to bring back
general prosperity.
tr? i Q94 Tiawpvpt tho situation will
be different, it was said. Hv then
business should be uormal and larger
questions of policy will be pushed to
'the fore. The campaign then will revolve
around-tariff and taxation policies
of tha Republicans and especially
around its foreign policy. Ex-President
Wtilson agreed with this analysis
of the political situation,1 it was
said, and believes the public will
by that time see the need qf Amer ioflTi
nart.iciDation in the League of
Nations.
It was liot indicated that Wilson
will take any part in the next political
campaign although his health is
much improTed. i
He looks much better than he did
at inauguration time and could even.
make a speebh if he wanted to, his
friends believe. There is no indica-j
tion, however, that he intends to ac- j
cept any of the numerous invitations
which he receives every day.
Wilson appeared in good spirits J
and told several humorous stories
during one particular conversation.
He has not vet regained the complete
use of 'his left hand but it is improving
under constant massaging. As he
talked Wilson rubbed his left hand
almost constantly.
Admiral Grayson is quoted as saying
that the ex-president would have
been a well man today had it not been
for the defeat of the Versailles treaty
by the senate. He has been deeply
affected by each reverse the Republican
administration has given his foreign
policies and the reaction on his
health his not been for the best at all
times, it is said.
13 BALES OFF OF 12 ACRES.
Dr. Honseal Makes -Fine Crop on

Newberry, Oct. 19.?There !have
been many stories going the rounds
as to bad luck with cotton this year.
Some farmers claim to have made no
cotton at all, while others say what
they did make was destroyed by the
boll weevil. One man, however, (has
a happy story in connection with his
cotton this year. Dr. W. G.~ Houseal
of this city reports that he has picked
13 bales from 12 acres on his
land near to Helena, a suburb of
Newberry. Dr. Houseal has a small |

land was almost worthless. It was
on .this land he made 13 bales on 12
acres. Dr. Houseal states that he
had (hoped to get two bales to the
acre and had it not been for the boll
weevil he would have gotten that
much or more.

Walhalla, Oct. 22.?Silas Ridley, a

considerable investigation he discovered
that the cries came from an
abandoned well. He, with the assist- ]
ance of some of his neighbors, entered
the well and found two babies,
twins, aged about six months. Both
of the little fellows were removed to
Mr. Ridley's home, and Mrs. Ridley
took charge of them. Mr. Ridley then
came to Walhalla ond reported his
discovery to Sheriff Alexander.
Early this morning policemen ar- ;
rested a couple near High Falls who l
gave their name as Mr. and Mrs. El
lis Hall, from Fountain Inn. This :
couple was brought immediately to
the county jail where they are alleged ,
to have made a full confession. It is
caid Mrs Wall states that she was
advised by her 'father and her hus- :
band to 'get rid of the children. Several
days ago the couple with four i
children are said to have been seen to
pass over the Stump House mountain ,
road walking, accompanied by two
small children, and that these were <
twin babies. A day later the couple
is said to have returned riding on a j
truck and that the twins were not
alojig ^is time. Mrs. Hall is said to 1

Louis Sehler, Augusta's "Grand] (

day afternoon at three o'clock, after a j ,
four-month sojourn in Der Vaterland. j .
He visited Hamburg, Bremen, Berlin, ]
and all the towns with which he c

America and Augusta. I
"Every farmer in Germany," Mr. ,

The Augustan was ill for three j 3
weeks in Hamburg, but his Augusta j (
friends who went with him remained j t
with him. He was at th? home of his j
sisters in Hamburg. (
Shortly before they docked at Bre- (

American. "I fought for my country

after thirty-eight years' absence?" t
"You may enter," said the com- t
sioner gravely. _ j
The party left Augusta last June ?
12, and arrived back in New York t
last Tuesday. Mr. Sehler brought a s
janary bird back, 5,000 mile9. t
"There is plenty to eat, and it is t
cheap," he said. "And there is very i

The trip to Germany is especially! j
significant in view of the difficulty he j r
experienced in procuring permission! t
to go abroad. He bad lived in Au-I t

he was a citizen. On the eve of bis \
