YOUNG MAN FELL FROM
SECOND STORY WINDOW
JOHN BURKE THE VICTIM OF A
PAINFUL ACCIDENT LAST
NIGHT ON MONK ST.

Johnnie Burke, who for MANY
months was employed as a cigarmakel
at the factory of the Santa Clara
cigar company, was the victim of a
very painful and serious accident last
nlgnt, when he fell from the second
story of the brick building on Monk
street occupied by R. M. Wilson.
No one was present at fhe time,
and it is not known exactly how the
accident occurred, as the yourg man
was unconscious for some time and
failed to tell how it occurred. 1t is
understood, however, that he was
last seen sitting in the window and it
is supposed that he lost his balance
and fell
In the fall he first struck on a small
shed under the window and then roll
ed to the ground. People who heard
the fall rushed to his assistance and
he was quickly removed to a boar ling
house across the street. where ne re-
ceived medical attention. The physi-
clans had not completed their exami-
nation last night, but fortunately no
bones were broken, but it is thought
that the young man was probably in
ternally injured. The fall was quite
long one and it is :ortunate that
the man was not more seriously in
jured.

DENOUNCED BRYAN FOR
HIS ATTACK ON BELMONT
Calls Him the Favor Seeking Office

. kan-No Bryan Man Can Garry New
York.

baltimore, July While tie first
ballot was being called this morning
Mr. Bryan entered the hall and was
greeted with loud and pro .onged
cheers. The band was absent today.
and Chairman James admonisLed the
galleries that he would not hermit
any applause to interrupt the BUSH
ness Of the convention, stating that
the convention is there. for business
and not pleasure from now on.
The vote of New York was char-
lenged and H. C. Stanfeld in answer
to the challenge made a bitter per-
sonal attack upon Bryan, charging
that Bryan was trying to produce a
deadlock so that he might be nomi-
mated himself. The New York dele
cation was polled with the result that
Clark received rs votes, Wilson 9 and
Underwood 3. German voted for Will
son, but under the unit rule New
York's vote goes 80 for Clark. Stan
held in his speech bitterly denounced
Bryan for the attack upon the New
AOIh uclcSdIlOli, saying J0dL Cne dele
cation contained a governor, lieuten-
ant governor, former candidate ror
president and many distinguished
men. These are the men that Mr..
Bryan has called men of wax in the
hands of Boss Murphy. This dele
cation represents ten million people
and forty-five votes in the electoral
college. No president can be cleo
ted to the presidency Of the United
States without the aid of New York.
Turning to Bryan Stanfield said:
We wish to say to that favor seeking.
otflce-hunting, publicity seeking Ne
braskan that if New York's delega-
ton is controlled by one mar. that
one man carries tremendous voltage.
| wish to say further no man who
has the taint of Organism can win
New York
He denied that the delegation was
under the influence of Ryan, Belmont
Or Morgan, and stated that With the
exception of the three men ramed,
Bryan was the richest and most DOW
erful of any in the convention.

SUMNER SCHOOL WILL
OPEN ON MONDAY NEXT.

On Monday morning, July 8, at $50
o'clock, the summer school will open,
with Prof Ralph Newton as prirci-
pal. The school will continue for
twenty days. The purpose of the
summer school is to allow children
who have failed Of promotion in one
or two subjects to make their pro-
motions and keep lip with their
classes. This is the easiest and best
way for children to make up their
conditions and parents should see to
it that children who rave been as
signed to the summer school should
come. Those who desire to attend
should call at Mr.. Ballard's office in
the courthouse or notify him by tele-
phone of their intention so to do ir
order that he may accommodate al
who apply.

y ARK AND WILSON FORCES
Eitf
y CANNOT GET TlG;THER
He Believes Board of Conferees Will
Have to Be Appointed to Settle the
Deadlock-No Change for Under
wood Or for Bryan.

A. c. Newell, the well-known At
lanta insurance man, is on st. Simon
FOR several days, having arrived Sun
day afternoon direct from Baltimore,
where he has been attending the dem
ocratic national convention, now in
session, and which seems to be hope
lessly deadlocked.
Mr.. Newell, in conversation with a
News reporter last night, stated that
he left Baltimore Friday night, and
at that time realized that a deadlock
was inevitable, and he is now Of the
opinion that neither Wilson nor Clark
nor Underwood, the three leading can
didates, will receive the nomination.
Mr.. Newell entertains the belief
that in order to solve the situation it
will be necessary for the Clark and
Wilson factions to appoint a soaro
| of conferees and that the mater will
have to be left entirely in the hands
of this board. Whether Or not this
will be done, he does not know, but
he believes that it is the only solu-
ton of the situation.
#The rivalry between Clark anG
Wilson is bitter" said Mr.. Newell,
and now that Bryan and Clark have
exchanged words, which were not at
all pleasant, the situation has become
more complex, and | 10 not anticipate
seeing either one of them receive the
nomination AS TO Under wood. the
conservatives are in absolute control
of the situation and there is nc pos
sible chance of his selection as a
compromise candidate"
What about Bryan?" was asked by
the reporter.
Never in thousand years will
he receive the nomination." was the
reply.
Explaining the situation as b. tween
Clark and Wilson, Mr.. Newell stated
that so much bitterness had been in
jected into the contest between the
two candidates that neither would
ever agree to a compromise as be-
tween the two, and that as long as
there was a possible chance for either
that both of them would remain in
the race. THE situation has now
reached the stage where Clark can
not be nominated without some Will
son support and vice versa, and this
will never happen, therefore tie only
solution | can see is Cor the appoint
ment of II board of conferees to set
tie the natter

BaIiotine continu ed.

After short recess balloting was
resumed tonight,and again many eff
forts were made for compromise
but to no avail On the 3Sth ballot
Wilson received 47S, Clark 425, In
derwood 130, and Foss 30.
Wilson Passes 500.
On the fortieth ballot, for the first
time during the convention, Governor
Wilson passed the 500 mark, but he
still lacked many votes of the re-
quired two-thirds majority, with nc
indication of receiving them. In fact
in order to get the required number
he will have to draw strength from
the Clark delegation, and this is con
sidered absolutely impossible. The
4Oth ballot resulted as follows: Will
son sol 1-2, Clark 1873, Underwood
106, Harmon %, Foss %, Kern J..
Still BalIoting.
1t was announced that the ballotine
would continue until after midnight
Some predicted the convention may
remain in session all night, while
others were anxious for a recess, be-
ing greatly fatigued by the session
which has lasted since 10 o'clock this
morning.

BUT HE is STILL
SHORT MANY VOTES

to cause any uneasiness and never
has a nomination been in sight. On
the 34th ballot Wilson made another
gain, receiving total of ATT while
Clark had 447, underwood III, Foss
80, Kern 1, and several scattering.
Delegates Tired.
Many delegates are showing that
they are tired, and, though they are
anxious to make nomination and re-
turn to their homes, it seems as ii
none of them are willing to leave
either Clark Or Wilson for either OF
the two. Many predictions have been
made during the day, but none OF
them have proved true. 1t was stated
at the lunch hour that the convention
would unquestionably make nomina-
ton tonight, but at this hour it
seems very improbable and the con
vention will no doubt adjourn until
tomorrow.

ROOSEVELT ON REGULAR
BALLOT IN ILLINOIS STATE

Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 1.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt received a telegram
from Mccormick of Chicago, claiming
that Taft's name may be taken from
the regular ballot in Illinois and that
of Roosevelt substituted.
1t is believed that McCormick's in.
formation comes from Governor De-
neen. 1t is also reported that the
progressive movement IS making big
gains in the middle west and espe-
cially in Illinois.
Roosevelt stated to a close demo
cratic friend that the nominee of the
progressive party would be the next
president of the United States if the
democrats are not careful Of the Bal
timore convention.

MANY OF THEM HAVE
ALREADY BEEN REFUSED
Georgia Railway Co. and Gas Co. Of.
fer Increased Amounts, But Not
Sufficient to Earnings in General
Wrieht's Opinion.

Atlanta, July While the Geor-
gia Railway and Electric company
and the Atlanta Gas Light company
have made increases in their returns
for taxation, as compared with last
year, Comptroller w: A. Wright does
not consider these increases sufficient
in view of the increased gross and
net earnings shown by the two COM
panies, and will ask them for larger
returns,
The Georgia Railway and Electric
company returned it's total property,
including franchises, this year at So
5S6, 800, an increase of about $3S6,000
over 1911. The company shows an in
crease in its gross earnings of $415,-
900 and in its net Of ABOUT $4,000,
the gross earnings for the year being
S3,121,O64 and the net SLOTS 13. In
view of these increases the con. ptrol-
Ter general thinks the return should
be larger, and has suggested that
President P. S. Arkwright take up the
matter with him.
The comptroller general holds a
similar view as to the tax return of
the Atlanta Gas Light company which
shows total of $1,72S, ,o00,an increase
of $28,000 over last year. But &C
cording to the statement of the COM
pany's gross and net earnings, Cap
tain Wright thinks this return should
also be increased.
The corporations making t1eir re-
turns to the comptroller general are
showing this year a spirit OF COM
promise which may result in all diff
ferences as to tax returns being
Strengthened out without the necessity
of arbitration.
The Central of Georgia railway
company's return for example. has
just been satisfactorily adjusted, the
comptroller general acceptiug an in
crease of 100000 over the return
submitted by the company. This
brings the CentraPs total return, in
round numbers, up to $22,155 coo.
The Athens Street Railway COM
pany has consented to an increase of
1925, 900 in its return. The C;iginal
return was 100000, and it is now
brought up to $625,00O.
In several other instances of the
street railway corporations, similar
settlements have been made between
the comptroller general and the COM
pany officials, with the result that
satisfactory increases in returns have
been secured without the necessity of
resorting to arbitration.
The settlement of the returns of
the Seaboard Air Line and thu Allan
tic Coast Line is still pending.

just been completed, resulting as fol-
lows:
Wilson, ATT IL.
Clark, 446 IL.
Underwood, 119 1-2.
Scattering, A 1-2.
Indications at this hour are that
the balloting will continue for some
time; in fact it has been rumored
that the convention may continue in
session until early in the morning.
Many rumors are flying through the
convention hall as to compromises,
etc., and it is believed that soma
agreement will shortly be reao he'd.
The Wilson and Clark leaders are
beginning to realize that it is almost
impossible for either of these candi-
dates to be elected, and it has been
hinted that an effort will be made to
induce them both to retire ant. that
one of the present candidates or a
dark horse may secure the nomi-
that Underwood Or Harmon have but
little chance, as the progressives are
in control of the convention and will
not nominate conservative.
Mayor Gaynor of New York Ex-
Governor Douglas of Massachusetts,,
Senator Culberson of Texas, and many
other prominent democrats are being
mentioned as probable dark rcrses."

On the 29th ballot Indiana increased
Kern's vote to a. This excited much
protest and angry shouts as the vote
went down the line. Iowa, Kansas

lows: Wilson ATT; Clark 446; Under
wood 1872, with about 40 SCATTERING.
1t was stated here that an effort was
being made to put the field against
