Threatens to Repeat.
Henry Shelton, a negro convict in

day. following a sensational escape

an ax. and later defied Recorder Nash
Broyles in police court in the after
noon.
The convict made his break for lib

Bell street, between Auburn avenue
and Houston street. With guards in
close pursuit, he vaulted fences and
ran through yards, finally seizing an
ax and threatening any one who went
close to him.
The guards finally got the drop on
the ferocious convict and forced him
to throw down the ax and surrender.
Later in police court, the recorder
sought to give the negro some good
advice regarding attempts to escape,
when the latter exclaimed;
‘Well, I’m going to run away every
i hance I have. They'll have to watch
me good.”

$25.75 or 29 days each in two cases—
one for escaping, and the other for

Caught “Redhanded.”
WASHINGTON, July 31.—That th?
investigation into the soliciting of
campaign contributions in the Atlanta
Federal building by representatives af
the Republican administration during
1912 would be vigorously pushed was
the statement of Representative Wil
liam Schley Howard here to-day. He
was explaining h!s resolution, which
called upon the Civil Service Commis
sion to submit all documents and pa
pers it held in connection with this
case to the Committee on Reform in
Ihe Civil Service, along with the or
der of the former Attorney General
quashing the case.
In his explanation. Mr. Howard
made the statement that the present
Attorney General would not allow the
matter to drop, as did his predeces
sor, whom he charged with dropping
the case upon instructions from the
Department of Justice.
‘These people were caught red-
handed in the soliciting of campaign
funds for the Republican Interests,"
said Mr. Howard. “They were abso
lutely violating the law, in that they
were upon Federal property at the
time they committed the act. The
Secretary of the Civil Service Com
mission in Atlanta did his duty and
reported the matter, but the men
higher up stopped it.
I shall keep a close eye on this
resolution and will make a strong
j fight to punish the offenders for prac
tically holding up the poor employees
I of the Government by levying a con
tribution tax upon them.”
