Sproul Declares in London 4 By Wireless to The New Y’ork Times 1 1 London, Atig. 28.—Prohibition has- i tened the death of President Harding. I in the opinion of ex-Governor Sproul, of I Pennsylvania, who said today, in dis- i cussing prohibition in an interview in The Evening Star ; |, "I think President Harding's death was accelerated by the fact that he! thought it his duty, because of—prohibi- 1 tion. to set a public example and ab stain from the use of liquor. He was ' accustomed to take an occasional drink of Scotch whisky. "I am his personal friend, and I know, and in that laborious trip to Alaska I'm sure he missed it.’’ Washington. Aug. 2S. —Confirmation of the declaration by ex-Governor Sproul in London that President Harding thought it his duty, because of prohibi tion, to set a public example by abstain ing from the use of intoxicants, was given tonight in a statement obtained from an intimate personal friend of Mr. Harding. This friend asserted that, while he did not agree with the theory that prohibi tion hastened Mr. Harding's death, it was true that Mr. Harding had not touched any intoxicating beverage since the, delivery of liis Denver speech on j -Tune 25th jast on law enforcement. The i President, said this friend, had decided to live up to the principles on which his Denver speech was founded a" l * "practice what he preached.” "1 do not ta*ke any stock in the theory of Governor Sproul that prohibition has tened the end of President Harding,” declared this friend, "and 1 regret that Governor Sproul lias seen fit to discuss the subject in London; hut it is true that President Harding had practically.' abstained from the use of liquor in re cent months, and that he had not touched JODE MORGAN HELD Is Returned 9: Albemarle Jail Without Privilege of Bail. Albemarle Press. 20th. Yesterday morning, the recorder's court, before Judge It. U. Digram, had as its chief case for trial that of State vs. Jude Morgan, charged with the mur der of Ohm Honeycutt oil Sunday. Au gust 12th, on the highway leading to Stanfield. The first witness for the State was young Tisr Morgan, who is a first cous in of Jode Morgan. Young Morgan testified that he was with Olan Huney cutt oil the day in question', walking. They wanted to fide, and remarked they wished a car would come by. About that time, Jode Morgan drove up and , stopped, the witness raising Ids hand, and asking if they might ride with him to Stanfield. Jode said: "You may ride with me: I have a cron; to pick with i Olan." It seems dial Jode Morgan was ac cused of writing some libelous matter to friends of Huueyeutt. and he said to i Olan that lie would take him to the’ 1 parties to whom lie was accused of writ-J . ing, and dear the matter up. Olan I is said to have remarked. "I don't ask ] you to do this." Words followed," and l ‘ threats of drawing blood were said to I have been advanced by Morgan. As ■ the Press gathers it. Huueyeutt was in- j > formed by other parties that Morgan i ■ had written or made the libelous state ■ liients against him to some lady friend, I and that lie showed his displeasure. r Jode Morgan resented the charge, and 1 denied Shat lie had any part in them. •' According to Tise Morgan, when the 1 parties met* on the road. Jode Morgan " got out of his car from the left side 1 and made a kick at Huueyeutt and 1 missed him. That Huueyeutt struck at e Morgan with bis right hand and mis-cd him. ''Cross-examination developed the statement that Huueyeutt held a knife * in his left hand, but did not use it. Morgan climbed into his car from the » left, got" out on right side, advanced to the front and shot Huueyeutt when s within about five feet of him. 5 Mrs. John Morgan testified that. Tise K Morgan was at. her home on Sunday of 5 the accident before and after dinner. 5 She is the mother of Tise Morgan. On X his return to her home. Jode remarked 5 that lie was going after Olan. That one 1 or the other of them would wake up in I h 1 before morning. Said that Jode I was in his' shirt sleeves, and that lie carried a pistol. Attorneys for the de l sense drew her out, and it was shown I that all parties involved were at her < home that day. and that there was no b unusual diplay of bad feeling between l! i Jode and Olan. I I The defense offered to place witnesses l[, on the stand if trial judge would com V sider allowing prisoner to give bail, jij Judge Ingram thought Hi is was beyond (jl his jurisdiction in the matter, and after 1 1 1 consideration of the evidence presented, jlj he ordered that prisoner be remanded to i j l jail until next term of court. jij Just what line of defense will be fol jlj lowed is only conjecture at this stage of I I the trial. Huueyeutt had a knife. He Jij was angry at Morgan for alleged slan- I 1 ! der. and no doubt made statements which l|i will be brought into evidence, which had Jij a tendency to make Morgan feel that he i l l had to' be on the lookout. Did Morgan j i at the fime of shooting Huueyeutt con- I J sider that the latter was about to use Ji his knife in attacking him? These II things, are only suggested by the cross i J examination of State witnesses by the i defense. 1 Globe Doesn’t Turn, It Jost Shimmies. Scientist Avers. i London. Aug. 30. —This old globe of ours is not rotating ns a rigid body in _ the heavens, but it is behaving as if it were a jelly-like substance, and some JO parts of it surface arc moving relatively fi to other parts. This startling sugges- X tipn is put forward by Prof. W. de Sit -3 ter of the University of Leyden, in Xa- X ture. According to the professor it X would follow that the distance between 1 various points on its surface is shifting I slightly. Wireless - time-signals ex j changed between various observatories J ; have shown discrepancies, reaching on oc | casions several tenths of a second. * j Similar fluctuations in recent years < have been observed on the surface of the J moon: in fact, something queer is hap pening in the solar system, because even J the sun seems to have been infected by jj the new astronomical complaint. j Toull find it diftciilt to snake your J life if you have no dufflcujty in making gg exeusea. / an intoxicant as a beverage since the de- j livery of his June 25th speech at Den ver." "The late President Harding was liev ier much of a drinker." continued this friend, "but it is ttuc tlmt lie liked an | occasional Scotch. During the last few | months of his life he drank very little, j and 1 do know that lie told an intimate [ friend on the Henderson on his way back to the states from Alaska, that he had never taken a drink Vince the date of the delivery of his Deliver law enforce ment speech. To this friend, the late President declared that he had made up his mind to 'make good' on his Denver spceoli. and had done so.” Mr. Harding was on his way to Alaska when, in his Denver speech, lie pledged dry enforcement by the Federal govern ment and hit at the stand taken by Gov ernor Smith of New York oil the State dry law repeal bill. * "1 do not see how any citizen who cherishes the protection of the law in organized society may feel himself sc-., cure when he, himself, is the example of contempt for the law." Mr. Harding de clared. Another statement in the Denver speech was that "reverence and obedi ence must spring from the influential jand the leaders among men, as well as 'obedience from the humble citizen, or else the temple will eollaps.” In .'mother part, of bis. speech. Mr. Harding asserted that “the resentful millions have the example of law de fiance by those who can afford to buy and arc reckless enough to take the risk, null there is inculcated a contempt for law which may, some day. find expres sion* 1 in far more serious form. It is the partial indulgence which challenges the majesty of the lew, blit the greater crime is that of the impairment of the moral fibre of the republic,” INCREASE IN CANCER HAS GREAT BRITAIN ALARMED Death Rate Has Tripled in Two Generations. Figures Show. Loudon, Aug. 30. —The' death rate from cancer in Great Britain has in creased three-fold in the past two generations, although in this space of time there has been a substantial re duction in the number of deaths from tuberculosis and other diseases, accord ing to a report just issued by the ministry of health. It advised the reduction of sharp tooth edges and the replacement of badly fit ting <lenta| work, and also a change in tile habit of pipe smoking if this pro duces a sore spot on the lip or tongue.
