House Military Committee Said

EXPANSION IDEA
Appeals More?Regular Army
to Be Much Increased as
1 Suggested.
"Washington, Fob. 10.?President.
Wilson was told flatly today by Ke
publicans of the House military committee
that tlv\y believed the committee
was practically unanimously
opposed to the continental plan sponsored
by the War Department. The\
si.id they believed the committee fa
vorod strengthening the national
v;u?urd and empowering the President
to draft it into the regular army in
time of war .
The Republicans left the White
House with the impression that the
President still believed the continental
army plan the best so far devised
He showed no disposition, they said
to attempt to force adoption or anj
particular plan but expressed the con
viction that the committee would
....v .. run ? ..n nnii'ifn firm v
c;i til v/uc a i/iii i vi tiu c% * ?i? j
The President told them that while
ho did not bcliove it feasible to substitute
the national guard for the con
lino? vial army he favored strengthenin}!;
the national guard. Under the
constitution, the President contended
the guard is distinctly a State force.
The .Republicans contended that could
br? overcome by passing a law allowing
the President to draft the organizations
in time of war.
The President urged speed and was
told that the committee will begin
framing the army bill next week and
that :it should be ready for the House
in three weeks or a month.
Representative Kahn, Republican,
sai/t after seeing the President that
tlifjre was n? disposition whatever on
/ ?T
either side to jajrot, politics into the
bill.' It was agreed, the President was
informed, that the regular army
she uld be increased to approximately
the strength suggested by the War
2>< partmeet.
Outside of the continental army
feature, the Congressman said, no im
in/rtant detail of the War Department
plans was opposed by the com
mil too.

OFFICER CAPTURES i
TRUNK OF WHISKEY:
(Florence Times.)
Officer Edwin Harrell captured a!
trunk full of beer and whiskey at the
Atlantic Coast Line passenger station
last night. The officer was on
duty at the station, and happened to
be standing near the baggage car
when the trunk was dumped onto the
platform from the Augusta train. J
Trunks not being usually handled as'
if packed with glass, one of the beerj
bottles was broken, and the officer's
attention was caught by the trickling i
stream of the foamy fluid. He at j
once investigated and found neatly
packed away 70 bottles of beer and j
eight quarts of whiskey. The trunk >
was checked at Augusta. It had noj
claimant last night, and was confis-,
cated by the police.

The following is the letter that is!
alleged to have ended in the death
of the girl:
"Dear Marion: Jo has told me that
you've been pretty sick?just got j
word yesterday morning, hence the!
delay.
"I hope that everything is all right
now and that you will soon be up and
around.
"I'll try to get down and see you,
probably the 9th of February, and '
will call you up the evening of the i
8th. Remember the dates. It will'
be under the same conditions as the
last time, remember.
"If everything is not all right by
the time I see you, it wili be then;!
leave it to me. What has happened i
since I saw you is encouraging,
although you may not know it. Til
1 explain when I see you. Above all,
keep quiet and everything will be all
right. If ycu start going around too
soon you may have a relapse or some "
thing.
"I don't like to write any more
You know why, I guess, but remem- I
ber what I told you. <
"Also don't tell anyone about the 1
8th, for I'm not supposed to come 1
home then. Remember. Sincerely, 1
Bill." 1

letter was being made public Orpet <

him to love her and that he told her <
he could not; that he was engaged to 1

TWO WHITE WOMEN I
ATTACKED BY NEGRO
The following account of a blood
curdling affair in Georgetown appears
in the Times of last week's is- ,
sue:
Saturday afternoon near 6 o'clock
two white women living in, Georgetown
tmeporarily, were attacked and
roughly handled by a black brute, J.
B Myers, better known as "Butcher."
The two women who reside on the I
upper end of Front street, went down
to the lower end of the street to one
of the fish houses for the purpose of
purchasing some fish. When near the
fish house, at the foot of St. James 1
street, without any warning they
were attacked by a negro, who grabbod
one of the ladies bv the throat
with such force that his finger prints
were plainly visible on her neck. With
great presence of mind the ladies
defended themselves as best they
could by fighting off the attack of
the negro. In the scuffle that followed
one of the ladies was struck across
the face by the negro, leaving a black
and blue scar.
After getting away from their assailant
the two ladies at once reported
the matter at police headquarters,
giving a description of the negro.
Chief of Police Anderson took the
case in hand at once and in a few
minutes had "Butcher" Myers under
arrest. The ladies described their assailant
as a man who was under the
influence of liquor and wearing a red
sweater. When the chief of police
arrived at the fish house a few minutes
after the assault he found
"Butcher" under the influence of
liquor and wearing a red sweater,
just as described by the ladies. Upon
being taken to the guard house the
two ladies identified the man as the
one who had assaulted them.
Upon being identified by the ladies
and after consulting with Mayor Saw
yor, it was thought best to transfer
th< negro to the county jail for safe
keeping.
The husband of one of the ladies
who was assaulted was away from
the city at the time, and in fact, had
not returned to town up to the writing
of this article, hence no action
has been taken yet as to swearing out
a warrant for the negro. The lady is
awaiting the return of her bushand
before taking any action in the ir.at-j
tor. i
It is commonly rumored over the
streets that an effort is being made
to compromise the matter and have
proceedings stopped ag&ifiSt \)\P. Itegro
and let hj.a* without. $ny punishment
whatever, We can scarcely
! believe that Solicitor Gasque could bii
| induced to give his consent to the
dropping of such a case. The negvo'
[should be severely punished, not only^
Jcv the (Ififcd hr% committed but nnl
example to oUu?ftt hf bin klrttL
On Monday morning Chief Ander-*
son swore out a \varr&I!i f'liArging
the negro with assault and battery of
a high and aggravated nature and on
this charge Magistrate Hilliard yesterday
required a bond, of .$1,000,
which the defendant failed to furnish
and consequently was committed tc.
jail.
