Mourning Deaths of Two
Lads Killed By Cave-in
Atlanta, Ga.—Two mothers are
mourning today because their little
sons played “convict in the mines”
in a cave near the city waterworks
yesterday afternoon. The youngsters
had dug a cave in the bank of an old
ravine and one of them was the “con
vict.” His ankles were bound in im
provised chains.
Another boy, near the mouth of the
cave, was struck by falling earth,
which buried him to his shoulders.
When he succeeded in scrambling
out he looked back and saw that the
brothers were completely buried.
They were Paul Cain, aged 13, and
Henry Steadman, aged 12. When help
arrived and they were dug out both
were dead.
At the Casino
Should one notice the crowds every
evening riding out to the Lake on the
cool open cars, he wouldn’t wonder
that a good show is being offered at
the Casino.
Another well pleased audience last
night witnessed "The Mysterious Um
brella,” or “The Jealous Husband,”
presented by the Gollenstein Musical
Comedy Company.
The real fun and amusement that
comes out in this little drama keeps
the audience laughing almost all the
while. It's a plain ordinary umbrella,
marked with the initials “T. J„" that
keeps the pretty young wife of a jeal
ous husband always fibbing to keep
from getting caught up with. A “reas
on” for this or that is always given the
enraged husband until the "stranger”
who was kind enough to lend Mrs,
Jones the umbrella is finally trapped.
Two reels of “movies” are shown
before every performance.
Tonight will be “Amateur Night.”
Prizes in money, $5, $3 and sl, will be
given the winners. Wednesday night
is a, big night,
FOR FIRST DEGREE MURDER.
Boston.—An indictment for murder
.n the first deg Tee was returned
•gainst Lawrence Robinson todaj* by
T special granl Jury that investigated
the death, last Friday, of Police In
spector Thomas F. Norton. Norton
was shot as he was about to arrest
Robinson for the police of Grand Rap
ids, Mich on a murder charge.
THE OUSTING OF
SLEUTJJUIS
Atlanta's Chief of Police Tells
of Dropping of Detective By
Members of Association.
Chief Beavers is back from the an
nual convention of the International
Association of Police Chiefs in Grand
Rapids, Mich., and Tuesday gave an
interview to The Georgian relative to
I the action of the association in drop
ping the name of Detective William J.
Burns from its list of honorary mem
bers.
While the methods of tlie Burns
agents in the investigation of the
Frank case brought the matter to a
climax, Chief Beavers said that work
done by Burns in other cities and
feeling against him in those places
| helped to crystallize the sentiment
that brought about the action ousting
him from the association.
The chief, who is a member of the
credentials eommitteee that dropped
Burns, denied the charge of Burns
that William A. Pinkerton, head of the
Pinkerton Detective Agency, was the
moving spirit in the fight and that
certain chiefs of police put the move
ment through to “even up” with him
because of "corruption and crooked
ness he had uncovered.”
Other Work Unfair, He Says.
“When Burns’ methods were shown
up—not alone his operations in the
Frank case in Atlanta, but his work
in other places, too —the association
simply felt that it didn't need any
such man on its honorary roll —that’s
the way it all apeared to me,” said
Chief Beavers.
“It was merely a question of with
drawing fellowship and recognition
from such methods as Burns was
shown to have employed.
The chiefs of police of the nation
representing the enforcement of all
law, as they do —could not condone
the unfair practices of the Burns
agents in the Frank case and other
cases as well."
Chief Beavers first referred to the
Burns probe of the Frank case when
the matter of revising the honorary
roll was taken up in the meting of
the credentials committee.
Decision Was Unanimous
Other members of the committee,
he said, also took part in the discus-
I sion and the committee unanimously
decided to drop the name of Burns.
When the report was presented to
the convention, Chief Beavers made
another talk, explaining details of the
Burns investigation here, telling of
the ousting of the Burns agency from
Atlanta by the Police Commission, and
of the Grand Jury and Police Court
action against Burns agents.
After hearing from Chief Beavers,
the association adopted the report of
the credentials committee without a
| dissenting voice.
“Several other names were dropped
| from the honorary roll, but these were
I tor other reasons. Burns was the only
one against whom charges were made,’
I said the chief.
No Vote on Vice.
Chief Beavers also explained that
I the report from Grand Rapids that the
j association had voted in favor of seg
regated vice was erroneous.
“No vote was taken on this matter
at all.” he said, “the committee on vice
conditions, 1 understand, had prepar
j ed a report but it was never presented
;to the convention, and I don’s know its
| nature.’’—Atlanta Georgian.
“Big League’’ Plans and
American Assn’s Pres’t
Chicago—President Chivington, of
the American Association, said here
today that no plans for a new “Big
League" under the wing of organized
baseball had been suggested to him
or so far as he knew to any club own
ers in his circuit. He reiterated that
the American Association was able to
weather the storm brought on by Ked
eral League competition and said he
expected no changes in the market.
President Johnson, of the American
Leaguo would not discuss further re
ports of the forming of a new league.
EVICTED IN BROILING SUN.
Atlanta, Ga.—The Volunteers of
America, in their crowded refuge, are
taking care today of Alma Miller and
her aged mother, who have nowhere
else to go since they were evicted
yesterday afternoon from the three
tiny rooms in Garnett Street for
which Miss Miller had paid $3.20 a
week. She was only earning v ... 00
a week In the restaurant where she
worked and when the rstaurant went
broke she could no longer pay the
rent. So the landlord had a bailiff
put the shabby furniture into the
street and Alma had to wheel her In
valid mother in a roller chair six
blocks through the 94-degree sun to
the army’s home.
