JAMES PLANNED TO HET1RF..
William F. James was appointed bat
talion chief September 1, 1913, after hav
tng served In tho lire department Blnce
August 22, 1832. A Philadelphia!! by birth,
he received rapid promotion. He was
promoted to an assistant foremanshlp.
which corresponded to what Is now a
lieutenancy, April 11, 1694. On February
9, 1897, he was appointed foreman, or cap
tain. James was ono of the most popular
men In tho service and was known as
an "A No. 1 fighter," one of the highest
praises a fireman can glvo a fellow fire
man. Ho planned to retire September 1,
this year, two years from the dato he
received his lost promotion. James, who
was unmarried, was born October 11, 1S57.
Ho lived at 2465 Amber street.
A "amoko eater" wa3 the title which
John Hlllman, Jr., earned from his fel
lows for his daring during tho two years
ho was In tho service. Ho was appointed
ladderman November 22, 1913, and was de
tailed to Truck No. 7, at 4th street and
Qlrard avenue, which housed also Engine
Company No. 29, to which his father,
John Hlllman, was attached as fireman
It waB his father's fato to go to tho same
fire and to witness tho disaster which
cost tho life of his son.
Hlllman, Jr., Is survived by his wife,
with whom he lived at 1140 North Orlan
na street.
Tho Potter plant Is one of tho largest
manufacturing establishments In tho
northeastern section of the city. It was
founded by Thomas Potter after he had
left tho employ of tho Bush Hill Oilcloth
Works. In 183S ho started In business on
his own account, shortly after purchasing
tho Bush Hill factory.
His enterprise soon mado tho firm
known throughout tho country. In 1570
the company moved tho plant to 2d street
and Erie avenue. The founder of this
rlint was Instrumental In tho organiza
tion of the paid lira department.
doesn't srem fair that one so young
could bo taken."
At this point Mrs. Hlllman could not
control her voice, and her husband, who
has been In the FIro Department for 30
years, Bald In broken tones that "he
wished to God It had been htm instead
of tho boy."
Both tho father and son were stationed
at Engine House No. 29, at 4th and
Glrard avenue, tho father being a stoker.
The little three-year-old boy, John 3d,
all unconscious of his father's death, told
visitors at tho Hlllman home this morn
ing, In his baby lisp, that he, too, was
colng to be a fireman when ho grew up
to ae a big man.
For several months tho wife of tho dead
fireman has been In 111 health, suffering
with anemia. In the opinion of Mrs.
Hlllman, Sr., It will be necessary for her
to g?t well very quickly.
"For," sho said sadly, "she'll have to go
out to work Just as soon as she can get
something to do. Tho pension won't be
enough to take caro of herself and tho
two children."
When Fire Chler Murphy was struck on
tho head by a falling brick aa ho directed
tho rescue work ho Ignored tho blow, al
though for a moment It dazed him. The
wound bled for some time. Chief Murphy
was Injured about 4:30 o'clock. Four hours
later he walked Into tho office of Director
of Publlo Safety George D. Porter. His
injury had not been treated.
So great was the sorrow of Chief
Murphy that ho forgot to remove his hat
In the Director's ofllce, aa is customary.
Ho turned In a report of the disaster and
had turned to leave the ofllce when Di
rector Porter noticed the blood on the
back of his head.
"What's the matter with you?" asked
the Director. ..,..
Chief Murphy removed his hat.
"A little scratch," ho said. The gash
made by tho brick was four Inches long
and penetrated to the skull.
Reporters met the fire chief as he left
the Director's office. He was crying
silently, , .. .
"Two of our men got mashed up in that
fire and killed." he said. "They were in
a position that looked safe and never
expected that wall to fall. I was near
by and I didn't hear anything, but the
men closer to the wall said they heard
a muffled explosion."
Police Surgeon John Wanamaker, 3d,
bandaged up the wound in Chief
Murphy's head. Ho then went to firs
headquarters.
PLEADS
In a little while the stork la expected
to pay another visit to tha Murphy home
and In addition to her grief over the ac
cident which has overtaken her husband,
the wife Is wondering what will become

GOVERNOR, UNGUARDED,
RETURNS TO CAPITOL
Slaton Finds Telegrams
Congratulating Him for
Commuting Death Sen
tence of Leo Frank Piled
on Desk.
ATLANTA, da., Juno 22 Governor
Slaton was at his desk In tho Capitol
again this afternoon.
Ho mado tho trip from hla homo In
an open automobile, but there was no
hostile demonstration. No guard accom
panied him
Nobody audited him In his office. On
his desk, however, was a huge stack of
telegrams. They were congratulations on
his action In the Leo M. Frank case.
Among thoso who telegraphed were
tho Governors of West Virginia nnd
Kansas.
Georgia's citizen soldiery nas In con
trol of the situation resulting from the
commutation ot tho sentence of Leo M.
Frank, today. Frank was under sentenco
of death for tho murder of 16-year-old
Mary Phagan, employo of tho pencil fac
tory of which Frank was superintendent.
The sentenco was commuted to llfo Im
prisonment. Tho mob spirit was almost
spent.
A battalion of the 6th Regiment had
dispersed all demonstrations In the vicin
ity of Governor Slaton's home. Tho
sheriff had controt of the situation about
tho State Prison Farm, where Frank Is
confined. The remainder of the 6th Regi
ment was held In reserve In tho armory
ready for any service that might bo
required.
In evidence of their confidence that the
worst was over, tho authorities today per
mitted tho near-beer saloons and drink
lng clubs to reopen.
The mllltta guard about tho Governor's
homo was not withdrawn, but plans for
tonight wero undecided.
Reports continued to come In of trouble
at other points. At Woodstock, as well as
at Marietta, Governor Slaton was hanged
In efflgy and at Newman Images of both
Slaton and Frank were burned. Citizens
of Valdosta were subscribing tl each for
a monument to iMary Phagan.
The Atlanta officials have taken th
utmost precautions to prevent any fur
ther demonstrations In tho city. All the
city police are on duty. They havo been
Instructed to keep all persons moving nnd
to arrest all Intoxicated persons on sight.
GOVERNOR'S HOUSE A FORT.
Last night was ono ot tho moat critical
In the recent history of Georgia.
Throughout the afternoon crowds, mostly
of the rougher clement, had been gather
ing about the home of the Governor, a
few miles outsido of Atlanta. Twenty
county policemen, armed with riot guns,
had been on duty about the place, while
the Governor and a number of friends,
all heavily armed, were In the house.
After dark tho crowd was augmented by
a largo number of Atlantans, who ar
rived In automobiles. The men and half
grown boys In the crowd at first con
tented themselves with hooting and Jeer
ing. As tho night wore along their tem
per became more ugly. Finally ono of
tho leaders mado a speech In which he
urged that, as Frank had been spirited
away, the crowd should hang the Gov
ernor. With cries of. "Wo want Georgia's
traitor Governor" In his ears, the Gov
ernor telephoned to tho major command
ing the 1st Battalion of the 5th Regi
ment, which had been held In reserve
at the armory. The troops wero rushed
to the scene in automobile trucks that
hud been In readiness, Bayonets were
fixed and the troops thrown out to com
mand the tract of half a mllo In front
of the Slaton residence, which marked
tho limit within which tha Governor de
clared martial law.
Tho mob was still ugly, apparently
realizing that the Governor had Issued
orders that no shots were to be fired
except In tho last extremity. The throng
stood fast in the face of the bayonets
for a while. Finally It gave way and
then showered the soldiers with stones.
TP.OOPS CHARGE MOB.
Obeying the command to charge with
fixed bayonets, the soldiers dispersed tho
mob, nnd small details of troops cleared
tho neighborhood ot scattered parties of
the crowd, driving them In all directions.
For a time It looked a? though tho
troops would have to Are, but at last
tho mob dispersed. The troops then
had more trouble with the people in
the automobiles, who defied them for a
time. It was early today before the last
of tha mob had left the scene and the
Governor could retire.
While the State soldiers patrolled the
grounds about Governor Slaton'a house
today the Governor remained Indoors.
With him were stveral of his close
friends, all of v them armed and ready to
repulse another mob, should It appear
again In the nelghborhod of the country
home. In Atlanta today hundreds of
plain clothes policemen and uniformed
officers mingled with the crowds on tha
streets, and with tho mounted police
clattering along tha principal streets, dis
persed every kind of street gathering.
The policemen were under orders to keep
very one moving, and to maKe arrests
In every Instance !n which the order
was not compiled with at once. The
local authorities were doing their utmost

place
ALL GEORGIA AROUSED.
From all over tho Stato today come re
ports of violent scenes resulting from tho
Governor's action In commuting Frank's
eentence. At Marietta. 20 miles from here.
In tho county from which tho family of
tho little Phagan girl came, an ofllgy of
Governor Slaton was hanged In a publlo
Btreet. A placard on the dummy read:
"John Slaton, Georgia's traitor Gov
ernor." A mob late last night burned tho efflgy.
A similar sceno was enacted nt Wood
stock. At Newman an efflgy of the Governor
ns set on fire nnd dragged through the
streets ot tho city white a mob of shout
ing citizens followed In GO automobiles.
TRANK CLOSELY GUARDED
TV Governor has Informed the Slid Iff
of Baldwin County, where the Mllledge
vllle State prlso.i Is lo;,it'l, that If troops
are required to prevent any storming of
the prison In an attempt to get Frank
and lynch him they will be furnished Up
to nn early hour today, however, they had
not been needed
Although sentiment throughout the
State is sharply divided over tho Gov
ernor's action, tho danger of trouble lies
with a comparatively small number of
people. The majority, oven of those that
bellevo tho Governor mado a mlstnko in
commuting Frank's sentence, agree that
ho arted In good faith and are discoun
tenancing all suggestions of reprisals of
any sort.

Virginia and Georgia aro directly affected
by tho Supreme Court decision and may
be entitled to additional representatives

In 1516, while Maryland and Oklahoma,

tional delegates, ns they also had "grand
father clauses" In their constitutions.
THE OKLAHOMA CASE.
In acting Upon the Oklahoma problem,
the Supremo Court held tho questioned
provision In the Constitution Invalid on
the ground that, although the Constitu
tion of tho Stato provided for a literacy
test for all voters, It Infringed upon the
Fifteenth Amendment to the Constitution
of the United States by setlng forth,
On the objectionable "grandfather
clause," a condition prerequisite to vot
ing. Tho only difference between this
clause and that embodied In the An-napoll-.
Constitution Is that the latter
substituted a $300 property ownership
qualification for the literacy test.
Tho Constitution of Oklahoma contains
the typical "grandfather clause" as
adopted by tho eight other Southern
States employing It to dlsenfranchlso the
Negro. It follows:
"No person shall be registered as an
elector of this Slate or bo allowed to voto
In any election herein, unless he be ablo
to read anil write any section of thrt
Constitution of the Stato of Oklahoma;
but no person who was, on January 1,
1866, or at any time prior thereto, en
titled to vote under any form of govern
ment, or who at that time resided In
some foreign nation, nnd no lineal
descendant of such person, shall be de
nied the right to register and vote be
cause of his Inability to so read nnd
write sections of such constitution."
In handing down the decision annulling
tho "grandfather clause" Chlet Justice
White said:
"We aro unable to discover how, unless
tho prohibition of the 15th Amendment
wero considered, the sllghcst reason was
afforded for basing the classification upon
a period of tlmo prior to tho 15th Amend
ment. Certainly It cannot be said that
there wan any peculiar nccromany In
tho time named which engendered at
tributes affecting the qualification to vote
which would not exist at another and
different period unless the 15th Amend
ment was In vlow."
