Columbus. July 11.-Governor

his failure to prevent the lynching

will be served on the mayor imme-
diately The governor has requested
the signatures of five responsible
persons to the charges of neglect of
duty against Sheriff Lincke also.
Governor Harmon, Adjutant Wey-
brecht, Secretary Lond and Lieuten-
ant Ben Chamberlain of the COVER
nor's staff, arrived at the county Jail
in an automobile at 3:15. Their ar
rival was absolutely unheralded and
the officials were taken completely
by surprise. The governor demanded
to be taken over the battered Jail and
for 80 minutes the party examined the
structure minutely the sheriff explain
ing in detail every step of the mob.
| The governor presently tested the
bars and examined locks.
Star Chamber Session.
Following the survey ne ordered
Sheriff Lincke to summon Prosecut-
! ing Attorney Phil b. Smith and the
mayor, Herbert Atherton. on their
arrival the party held a star chamber
session.
II will have to take time to consid-
er this matter more thoroughly and
any comment / have to make will be
given from the governors office in
Columbus" was the governors only
statement to the reporters.
Sheriff Lincke and Mayor Ather-
ton reluctantly discussed the meet
ing.
"The governor questioned me as to
| why l did not stop the mob by firing
| if necessary" Lincke said. 81 told
him that l was inexperienced in mob
procedure and did not realize the Sc
riousness of the situation until the
door had been battered down
! then looked out and saw facing me
500 guns In addition, there were doz-
ems of women and children in the
! Jail yard.
Would Have Been Murdered.
Had | ordered the boys TO fire in
| to the yard. the slaughter would have
been frightful and my family, as well
| as myself and deputies would have
| been murdered. l told him 1 did not
realize the danger then He asked
many other questions but | answered
them ALL"
Mayor Atherton declared that Mr.
Harmon questioned him relative to the
recent non reinforcement of the law
and his failure to call for troops
when he learned the true situation.
"I told him that 1 was enforcing
the law to the best of any mans abil-
| ity and that after I addressed the mob
pleading with them to disperse, went
home and went to bed and thought
| they would do likewise"
The mayor said both of the officials
told the governor that although they
had faced the mob at different times
during the evening they failed to rec
ognize a single face among the par
| ticipants.
