PLEDGES BY MCCLELLAN
Mayor Says This Is "Probably His
Last Public Offce.''

New York, Jan. 1.-Mayor George B.
Mcclellan began today his second term
as mayor, this time of four years. The
ceremonies were few, as today merely
marked the opening of new term, not
a new government. A number of new
heads of departments were sworn in,
and after they had taken" their oaths
Mayor Mcclellan called them together
and told them his ambition is to give
the city clean, efficient and honest
government. He alluded to his present
conference as "the last public office,
which in all probability, T shall ever
fill ~ and said:
NYou, gentlemen, owe your appoint
ments solely to the fact that I believe
you are we'll qualified for the offices to
which have appointed you. I shall
hold you to strict and efficient per-
,, Torrance Of your duties, and should
any Of you fail in reaching the stand
ard which I shall require, I shall not
hesitate to remove you. I ask Of YOU
| but one qualification in your subordi
mates and that is efficiency. I shall ex
pect you to consult with me upon any
changes you may make.
I'm entering upon my last term of
PUBIC o1lce L 90 so with but one ambi.
ton, and that is to fulfill my pre-elec.
efficient and honest government. If at
the end Of six years. service as mayor
l can retire into private life conscious
that the city has advanced in good gov
eminent and in civic righteousness, that
municipal standards have been raised
and that leave New York even little
better than I found her, I shall feel thai
six years Of hard work have not beer
in vain.'

Charged With Making Work Of
Mob Easy.
REMOVES ALL GUARDS FROM THE JAIL
MUST SHOW CAUSE WHY SU.
PREME COURT SHALL NOT
PUNISH FOR CONTEMPT

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1s.-The case
of John F. Ship, sheriff of Hamilton
county, Tennessee, of which Chatta-
nooga, Tenn. is the county seat, and
some twenty odd other defendants who
are to appear before the supreme
court Of the United States to snow
cause why they should not be punish
ed for contempt Of this high court,
presents a spectacle that is without
parallel in the history of the supreme
court.
1t is claimed that large number of
witnesses will be in Washington to
prove that these men are not in con-
tempt and that many of the leading
members Of the Tennessee bar will be
on hand to conduct he defense.
Sheriff Ship was the custodian of
Ed Johnson, a young negro who had
been tried, convicted and sentenced to
be hanged for the crime of outraging
a young white woman in the out
skirts of Chattanooga.
On the evening of the day before
the sentence of the court was to be
carried out the case was brought be-
fore Associate Justice Harlan Of the
supreme court on appeal and permits
sion was granted to file this appeal.
Notice to this effect was sent the
sheriff on telegram signed in the
name of the associate justice. The
brief filed in the case alleges that this
telegram reached Sheriff Ship in am
pie time.
The same night, within a few hours
after the sending of the telegram, a
mob stormed the Jail, took the pris-
oner and hanged him.
It is alleged that Sheriff Shipp was
in sympathy with the mob, and that
after receiving this notice from the
court he removed all the jailors who
had been guarding the prisoner save
one, and made conditions such that
the mob could easily break into the
Jail.
