Sease Releases the fDefendant on $20,000 Bond. 8partanburg, June 19.-By the sud den Illness of G. G. McAbee, one of the jurors trying T. E. Lanford charged with the murder of Glenn Foster, a mistrial was ordered in the case. All of the testimony was not in, and as counesl for the defense gave notice that an application for bail would be made, court of general sessions re cessed, and the remainder of the tes ,timony was heard at chambers. The co 4rt stated that it would be more satisfactory to hear all of the testimony rather than have what re mained submitted In the shape of affidavits. The defendant testified having giv en his record for the day of the trag edy, denying in toto that he knew any thing about the crime or any .part in it. After tho testimony was complet ed the court .1xkd Iball at $20,000. Judge Thomas S. Sease stated that when 'he heard the argument of the state, he felt that the case was not a 'bailable offense, but after hearing the argument of the defense he felt that it was a bailable offense and the cast that there w-as a dou'bt in his 'own mind was suficient to make it a bailable of fense. Judge Sease stated that it was 'not within his sphere to pes upon the guilt or innocence of the defendant, that it is the duty of 12 men, but for him. to deny 'ball at this time might make the impression that he believed the defendant should be convficted, which would amount to his trying the case. in fixing ,bail, he said that he would make the amount sufficient to deter any from thinking that the defendant should not lbe convicted and named $20,000 as the amount. The question was raised when it 'was announced that one of the Jurors was ill that the case might go on by consent, 'but the defendant's counsel stated that they were will ing to go on with the trial, but (lid not 'believe they had any right to do so, as the constitution calls for 12 men to try the case, and they did 'not believe that right could be waived. TIREASURY -COINS SILVER DOLLAtS fWashington, June 19.:-Coinage of sil-ver dollars has been resumed by the mint after a lapse of seven years and the work of replacing the $279, 000,000 standard silve'r dollars taken from the treasury during the war to sell to Great Britain has been begun. Since last March, treasury officials said todight, approximately 20,000, 000 silver dollars had been coined. In the same period corresponding amounts of silver certificates were issued and federail reserve notes and treasury notes securing them, retired. Th Is process ofilals saidl, would( Pro'imbly contInute for' the next fIve years until the treasury's reserve of silver (dollars is back to Its pre-war basis. The mint, officials explained, ceased coining silver (doilars in 191-1 when the supply of metal purchased under the coinage act was exhausted. Furt ther authority to make the (101lars was not forthcoming until 19 IS, whe~n congress passedi the Pittman act to enabhIe the sal Iofi melted dollars to England1( for the relef of the iver famine in 1IdIa. U'nder the terms Of the act. D)irector of the * lit liaker sold to Englandl 270,000,000 silver dollars, amounting to 208,000,000 pIeces of silver at $1.01 1-2 an ounce, plus the market pice of the copper contained In the dlollar. The I 1-2 cents, Mr. liaker explainedl tonight, paid for the cost of melting and transportation and the cost of recoinage. The work of refilling the hole left In the treasury's vaults, Mr. lHaker said, was now well under w~ay, the mint striking off silver dollars at the rate of n'hout eight to ten million a month. Since May 1920, the mInt has hourjit abiout fifty-five million ounces of ,Amerlean silver at $1 an ounce and will cont-inue to make its purchases at this pri'ce until the treasury's stock is replenished. Decspite the fact that the Pittman act requires the mint to pay $1.00 an ounce for its silver, Mr. Baker de claredl, queries are constantly received dlemanding why the government ipays so'much more for its silver than the market price. The Price was fixed by the act, lie said, to stabilize the price of silver wvhen there were indications of its reachIng unheard of heights during the wvar, As a result of the government's action in confining the treasury's purchase to silver, both pro dIuced1 ad redclted~ in this country, the American slver' mining industry was proteced frQml overwhelming foreIgn competition, Mr. Baker said. Because of the price at w'hich the silver was stald to England, the government Is breaking a little better than ever on the transaction, he added.
