the revolutionists will recommence out

Prisoners are constantly seen with their

Special to The Washington Herald.
Norfolk, Va. Aug. 4-The sentiment
here is that Judge William Hodges Mann
will be nominated for governor. From
the ranks OF the ring" comes the state
ment that word has been sent down the
line that the Nottoway candidate must
be elected. The big boss has demand
ed the support Of his cohorts on the
ground that Senator Thomas S. Martins
political future is at stake.
Norfolk will give Judge Mann from
1000 to 800 majority in the primary.
Although there IS a boiling Of a large
number Of independents usually found
with the machine" who will vote for
Tucker, the rank and file OF the old
stand-bys are now hardening TO the
call OF the bosses" and viii vote FOR
Mann-many Of them against their will.
1t is known that many workers are
accepting money from the Tucker forces
who will on the day Of the primary sup
port Mann. One man stated he was
asked TO go and get his fingers on some
Tucker money. His reply was:
II am a supporter of Judge Mann, and
I don't want TO steal money. I will not
take a mans money and then work
against him"
Hero is what one prominent leader said:
with the liquor people and Christians
supporting Mann, how can Tucker be
elected? / don't see how Tucker has
got a chance"
There are many well-informed persons
who openly declare that Mann Will be
nominated II Il is necessary 10 count
Tucker out There Is plenty OF money
that Mann will win.

Representative ]. Thomas Helm, OF
Alabama. and Albert Johnson, an en-
ploye or the Government Printing once
engaged in a heated argument and o
short but busy hsticuf in the Riggs
House last night shortly after o'clock.
Neither combatant sustained more thar
slight injury, but bystanders say the mer
were going TO do violent bodily harm II
two or three Congressman hadn't stopped
the fight.
Ollie James, the Democratic Represent
alive from Kentucky. and Representa-.
tives Clayton. Of Alabama, and Pujo, OF
louisiana. acted as official separators OF
the bout, and they caught about as many
Of the backward jabs Of the elbows as
did Mr.. Helm or Mr.. Johnson, and be-
sides, It is said Mr.. James got two OF
three right and left swings near the bell
buckle when he held the fighters, one ir
each hand. at safe distance from each
other. He doesn't care. however. and
says he is willing 10 yield that much tc
stop q fight any old day.
Cause of the Trouble.
Just why the fight began. or its cause,
has been the subjecA.of considerable dis
cussion. Mr.. Helm and Mr. James were
going along + street near Twelfth when
Mr.. Johnson. they say, dashed rapidly
around the corner in an automobile, miss
Ing them by the narrowest OF margins.
Mr.. James spoke Of the carelessness OF
the autoist ana tho two Representatives
decided 10 take the number Of the ma

As the Kentucky Representative marked
down the number in his note book. Mr..
johnson, they say. turned in his machine
and drove back 70 them.
on learning that one OF the two was
Mr.. Helm, Johnson Is alleged to have
remarked: "Oh. yes. You have quite a
reputation for uplifting morality In Wash
ingtOn, haven't your or something 90
that effect. To this Air. Heflin said things
that were calculated 10 make the autoist
angry and the Alabamian himself ad-
mits the air was rather blue for a brief
period. However, Mr.. Johnson put on his
power and the machine disappeared
around the corner.
Second Round Of Conflict.
The secaond round OF the bout wasn't
scheduled. but It came a little faster
u y Z.
Helm and Mr.. James had reached the
Riggs House and the Alabama member
went into the lobby 10 keep an appoint
ment. Mr.. James followed a short dis
lance behind. Much TO the surprise OF
both. there was Mr.. Johnson, and he IS
said 20 have lost no time rushing up 70

him from the street corner a few minutes
before. doubling up his fists and prepar-
ing for battle.
Ills craftsmanship already somewhat
ruffled from the verbal conflict. Mr. Hef-
lin met his combatant and grabbing him
IN the collar was preparing TO crush him

rushed up and with the assistance OF Mr.
Clayton and Mr.. Pujo stopped the fight.

back into the hotel lobby and Mr.. John
