FULTON'S HOT POLICE FIGHT.
JUDGE LUMPKIN KNOCKS OUT THE
WHOLE DEPARTMENT.

He Holds That the County Commits
siOners Have NO Authority TO Use
the Public Funds For Maintaining
County Police Department-The
Departments Abolition the Result
of n Fight Among the Officers.
Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 5-Fulton county is
now without a police department. Judge
J. H. Lumokin this afternoon signed the
order asked for by certain citizens of the
county restraining the county commission
ers from further continuing the perpetual
ton of the department, on the ground that
the commissioners have no authority to
use the money Of the county for the en-
ployment of policemen. The order com
pletely abolishes the police force. which
has been in existence for the past four
years, as the commissioners cannot now
apply any money for that purpose, and the
police will not, of course, be disposed to
work for nothing.
The abolition of the county police depart
ment was brought about by fight for po-
sitions within the department, as told sew
eral days ago in these columns. Some
didate for reelection to the position of
chief made charges against Officers Har-
rington and Bradley, the latter being a
candidate for chief against him. The men
were suspended from duty and an inves-
tigation is now pending. They were ac-
cused by the chief of having accepted
brides. The men, however, claimed that
the chief had been actuated in making the
charges by the desire to get officer Brad
ley and his friends out of his way in the
contest for chief. Accordingly they went
TO work to cause Chief Vernor's downfall
by filing counter-charges against him, and
also by inspiring the action in the courts
attacking the legality of the whole depart
ment. This phase of the affair was argued
last Saturday before Judge Lumpkin and
as stated, he to-day held the department
to be without authority, and declared it
abolished. Other serious complications
may develop on account of The fact that
the department has been making arrests
and spending money illegally for the past
four years.
The branch of the case relating to the
charges and counter-charges against Chief
Vernon and officers Bradley and Harring-
ton is booked for a hearing before the
commissioners tomorrow morning.

Fellow Citizens; BY the suffrages Of the
electors of our state, i have been called TO
"A second term as chief ma gistrate of Flor
ida The call not only carries with IL du-
ties Of the most delicate ana responsible
character, but it Is the highest honor that
the people of the state can bestow.
l know of no means more appropriate TO
attest my appreciation than 10y an earnest
effort to exercise the nigh functions OF
the position solely for the purpose Of Sc
curing an honorable, economical just
and progressive administration.
It is proper however, TO remember that
the best state government can DO but 1T
Tie directly in promoting individual sue
cess or individual prosperity.
The evils of bad government can more
readily mar those desirable results than
good government can secure them.
Vicious government in lettering the
hopes, efforts and energies of individu-
ais, spreads its baleful influences over all
classes. and tends strongly to the disor-
ganization of society.
Good government. while shielding us
from such destructive agencies, can act
affirmatively only in giving the undisturb-
ed opportunity of securing the rich re-
sulhng fruits of well directed individual eff
fort.
The true function Of government is to
rights.
Those rights are defined by our consti-
tuition as Enjoying and defending life and
liberty; acquiring, possessing and protect
property; and pursuing happiness, and OBJ
tanning safety"

PHOSPHATE MINERS MAY STRIKE
The Negroes Employed Just Out of
Charleston DiscOntented.


Charleston, S. c., Jan. 5.-Serious trou-
BILE is threatened by the negroes employ
ed by the phosphate mining companies, a
few miles out of the city. 1t began among
few disconnected negroes working for
the Chicora Company, and it
has to-day developed to such
an extent that generol strike
is feared. The laborers have no
specific complaint, but have been render
ed disconnected by a few men of bad
character.
The police were appealed to last night
and again to-day, and Sheriff Ferguson has
sent deputies to the works. 1t is hoped
that the men will be quoted without much
effort on the part of the authorities but
the situation is critical.
The works are several miles out of tho
city. and for the most part are located in
httle frequented places. There are always
a number of unruly negroes on Charles
ton Neck" and these usually take ad-
vantage of any disturbance of this kind
to become ugly. The authorities are us
ing every effort to prevent an outbreak on
the part of the laborers.

FLANAGAN TO WRITE STORY.
He VIII Put on Paper His Version of
the Tragedy.

He Will Put on Paper His Version of
the Tragedy.
Atlanta Ga, Jan. SD Flanagan, the
man now in the Fulton county jail for
the murder of old Mrs. Allen and Miss
Ruth Slack, in his bloody attempt to ex-
terminate the whole Allen family, at their
home in DeKalb county, has written a
complete history of his horrible crime
and the incidents leading up to it. This
document was delivered to his attorneys
to-day, and will probably be given out
to the press tomorrow.
The statement is in the nature of an
autobiography of Flanagans life, and is
very lengthy, covering twenty or more
typewriter pages. 1t is said to be a very
sensational document in that part which
relates to Flanagan's infatuation for lit
tie Leila Allen, the 12-year-old daughter of
George Allen, one of the persons wounded.
The purpose of securing the self-written
account of the horrible affair by Flana-
gan's attorneys is supposed to be to show
by his halucnations as he puts them on
paper himself, that he is a monomaniac,
and that his mania in relation to little
Leila Allen was such as to cause him to
want to kill her father on account of his
imagined ill-treatment of the child.
Mrs. Minnie Slack, residing at 1894 Ma
rietta street, called at the Jail to see Elan
agan. in company with Chief of Police
Connolly, to-day. She thought from his
description and pictures in the papers he
might be a man whom she saw commit
a burglary in broad daylight several
months ago. the burglar in question steal
ing about $3.50 from a store on Marietta
street. She failed to identify Flanagan
as the man.
