news from Atlanta shows that by shrewd manipulation and suoceaefut wirepulling the directors of the Atlanta club have about succeeded in obtaining -what the merit of their organization wonld not havs sntltled them the pennant Daring their reoent home games the Atlanta never said on word in regard to the fact that tha league tea-eon waa too long or too short When they went sway on their lest trip however and never succeeded in winning a tingle game and tbs Nashville had crept to a rank dangerously near they arrived at concln-alons which justified them in breaking np th League They claim that there Is too great expense connected with lying idle daring their scheduled games with the defunct Columbus snd Birmlngbam club At the same time they announce their intention of retaining the organization for at least a month more to play exhibition game Did the fact that they belonged to tbe League prevent them from making dates for thiir exb tion games Nut at all All date for which they weie not ichednled could have been filled out with other teams and etill the League might have been preserved At it was Atlanta threatened to go out of tbe League and thns forced a few clubs who have always been nnder thumb to agree to the proposition of the Atlanta The career of the latter organization has been reprehemible since the opening of the season The figures given in the special from Atlanta art not correct Tbe AtlaDtaa have a percentage of either 659 or 652 the actual record being required to show whether they have lost tnirty-one or thirty-two games The Nashville have won fifty-eightgamesand lost thirty-two It ie passible for them to increase their percentage to 663 though it mast be admitted such is not very probable If they win one more game from Macon and every game from the Augustas the pennant is theirs despite tha trickery of the AtlaDtss President Grady of the Southern League it will be remembered predicted that the Atlentas should win the pennant or he wonld break np the Smthern League In the meanwhile tbe Secretary of the Leauge John Reeves of Nashville will open np his books and make out the correct records not depending upon the calculations of the

United Sates Dieirict Attorney Eroeet Pillow held a conference and decided to what truth there was in ths speculation of tbeir informant Tbs circumttanoea of ths disappearance of Miller are rather familiar On Saturday of the 6th of July hs started to the home of John Bradley abont fifteen mile north of Gallatin with warrant for the arrest of Bradley on th charge of making and celling whisky without license When last seen Miller was not far from bona and going in that direction A short while afterwards parlies living in those whereabouts heard th reports of several gun shota horse and saddle were fonnd near house but there was no trace of Miller Bradley was at the time arrested for complioity in th crime but there was no proof against him Friday night Deputy Marshal accompanied by Officer Spnryar left Nashville for tne scene of the alleged murder Yes erday abont noon Marehal Tillman reoeived a telephone message from Wright at Gallatin stating that the body of Miller had been

on the platform with Bred-ley heavily handcuffed by his side and two specially depatized aids Barker and A Brown following each having a double barreled gun on his shoulder This rather strange sight ate traded an immense following of men and boys Cn the way to the jell the party stopped at a restaurant in th! market-honse for supper and there an American reporter had an opportunity of learning the ciicumstances of the arrest Deputy Marshal Wright stated thst he and Mr Spuryer arrived at the supposed scene of the supposed murder about 1 early Saturday morning and with lanterne began a search for tha body according to their directions and continued nntii daj light They then -went away and securing the assistance of five or six men livin around began anew the search This wss continued with

down into it aad the-stench was so great that it was impossible to remain close by the spot All were satisfied that the long lost Miller had at last been found and a party was at once sent for a coroner to exhnme tbe corpse from its grave snd to hold an inquest The body was pot into the gronnd without coffin or wrapping of any kind The grave wss on th land of Bradley and about a quarter of

he offered no show of resistance but quietly submitted and accompanied the officers to Fountain Head a railroad station where nnder the guard mentioned above he came to this city Tbe prisoner is a rather fine looking and shrewd countryman of middle age He said that on the day of the shooting and when Miller was supposed to have been killed he and a hired man Moore were at work in his field They heard the shots bat ss people frequently fired off their gnns in that part of the country he paid no attention to them He did not kill Miller snd did not know anything abont the affair bad seen Miller once several months before tbe supposed mnrder bnt had no acquaintance with him He can prove he says an alibi by Moore The officers found no actual clue to the guilt of Bradley bnt believe that cir-oamstancea point sufficiently to his guilt to justify them in bringing him to answer before the United States Court Bradley was lodged in jail to await th action of the Oonrt -i A BOLD DESPERATE
