cents per crate. While the reduction
is small, it is a reduction and
the manner is a concession. As to
vegetables the Coast Line replied j
that existing rates are not unreasonable.
The sum of all this means j
that the matter will go up for;1
formal trial before the commission j1
when the entire subject will be1
thoroughly threshed out and it will (
be up to this court to render judgment
upon the issues.
Last Saturday Mr J R Wofford,1
representing the Southern Express:
Company, came to Lake City to as-;
certain the wishes of the truckers j
as to express rates. He was furn- 1
ished with a schedule of the rates <
which our people think they should <
have. Mr Wofford stated that the !
schedule would be submitted to1J

ter for the company, and that an J i

PHELPS CASE TAKES NEW TURN. |
Shertff Graham Puzzled to Know
What to Do With His Prisoner.
The status quo of the Phelps case,
which has been undisturbed for the j
past fortnight, took a new turn this1
week and it is hard to tell just j
what will be the outcome of the j
present situation. Mrs Phelps No!
1, who came here from Greensboro,
N C.j about two weeks ago
and since her arrival has been taking
care of Phelps at the Kellaha'n
Hotel, returned Sunday morning to
her home in North Carolina. Mrs
Phelps took the position that as
there was a warrant pending forx
her husband's arrest and there seemed
to be no hope of his recovery
for some time to come, if at at all,
she could not afford to remain with
him indefinitely at a heavy expense,
having no means of her own, and
that her departure in no sense
meant that she had abandoned him a
to his fate. She merely had sub- ^
mitted to the inevitable, as she saw | g
it. She was willing to take care v
of her husband as long as she was n
able to work for him, but the law g
seemed to have the first claim upon
him,for the present, at least, and n
she recognized and yielded to the
prior claim. n
This left Sheriff Graham, who has u
from first to last handled a delicate p
and trying situation with character- C(
istic humanity and consideration, (tj
puzzled to know what to do with a c,
sick man on his hands charged with jt
a serious crime and no provision h)
made for his proper care. On Mon- p<
day the Sheriff wired Governor 0]
Ansel, explaining his predicament)
