OIWRS MISTRIAL
IN LANFORD CASE
Illness of Member of Jury Causes
Spartanburg Case to Iang Over.
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.
