DUEL
TO THE DEATH
FOUGHT AT CUMBERLAND GAP
BY GEORGE eRITToN AND
FRANK DAVIS.

CUMBERLAND GAP, Tenn, Aug
22.-George Brittton and Frank Davis,
two prominent men of this section
met at the Louisville & Nashville de-
pot at Shawnee, two miles east or
here, this morning at o'clock, and
at once engaged in a duel to death
Britton was shot FIVE times, the fifth
bullet penetrating the heart and kill
ing him instantly. Davis received
wounds in the abdomen, breast and
shoulders and is not expected to live.
The men used 45-calibre pistols. The
shooting was the result of a feud
which, it is said, has existed between
Davis and Britton for three years.
Davis came to Shawnee this morning
from his home at Wheeler, Va, and
was accompanied by a young son.
Britton was at the depot, and it is
said when Davis stepped from the
train Britton began shooting Davis
returned the fire and the result was
fatal to Britton. AS both men are
well-to-do and prominent, and have
brothers who are fearless men, it is
feared the trouble may be continued
by these brothers.

mo TENT CAMP
FOR STRIKERS
THIS DECLARATION rs POSITIVE
~ MADE BY GOV. Conner or
ALABAMA.
LOOKS LIKE EARLY SETTLEMENT
Result Of Reported Conference at Gin
cinnati is Looked to With
Much Conferences.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Aug. 25.-
Gov Conner at noon issued a state,
ment that he would not permit the
establishment of tent camps by the
striking miners, who are adopting
this system when forced to vacate
their houses. The Governors state
ment concludes:
Il can conceive of nothing that
would be more productive or of more
lasting harm, both in crime and
health, than the establishment in our
midst, without sanitation and without
police protection, of such camps as l
saw on my inspection; therefore, l
put every one on notice that the es.
Enlistment Of these camps will not
be allowed"
In spite of the lack of definite in.
formation, hope that the strike of the
coal miners of the Birmingham dis
trict would soon be settled was plain.
ly evident today. The report that
Vice President White, of the United
Mine Workers, was in conference
with President Lewis, though not Of
ficially confirmed, was generally be-
lieved, and there was strong expecta-
ton that the result of this confer.
ence would be the calling off of the
strike.

BREITMEYER NAILS
CAMPAIGN FIBS

Some mistaken and adverse crti-
cism is being made of Park Commits
sioner Breitmeyer because many
horsemen hold him responsible for
the fact that no speedway has been
built.
Il regret that there has been no
speedway built as much as anyone
can" says Breitmeyer. The explana-
ton is very simple-the estimators
made no appropriation for the project
this yeai and the former appropria-
ton was turned back into another
fund some time ago.
IF | could build a speedway. /
would do so. In fact. IL the horse
men wish TO raise d fund To go ahead
with the building OF a speedway,
will head it with very liberal sub
in the meeting OF the board OF esti-
mates next spring TO urge the desir.
ability Of such an improvement
Another specimen from the fake re-
port factory that Breitmeyer has
to answer is the statement that, be.
cause Frank D. Andrus is supporter
OF his cause. he would favor the old
Peoples Railway Co. II elected mayor.
This company has been quiescent for
long time.
Il can only say that | am glad Mr.
Andrus favors me-" says Breitmeyer.
