Seven pieces of that length, and one

The gate may be made II feet long

stand present conditions fully as we'll

Aliens Lose out in Supreme Court

Richmond, Va.-The Virginia court
of appeals Monday refused the pet.-
tions of Floyd Allen and Claude Swan
son Allen for new trial. This means
that the two Carroll county gunner
must die In the electric chair tomor-
row friday for their completely in
the aillsville court massacre last
March, unless Governor Mann grants
them a respite or communication OF
sentence.
The decision of Virginia's highest
tribunal. read by Judge Keith, is as
follows:
siIn the case OF FLOYD Allen against
the Commonwealth, this court finds
no error in the record and nothing
erejudicial to the defendant in the
court below and the judgment of the
court below is affirmed p"
Similar verbiage was employed in
denying the appeal of the Younger
Allen. Hardly dozen persons were
In court when the announcement was
made. On learning Of the courts de.
cision, Governor Mann announced
that he would issue statement later
The Supreme Court made known its
decision at 1890 a. M, Floyd Aller
and his son, in death cells at the peni
tertiary, hal not heard the news a
noon, Superintendent Wood stating
that he would leave it to either the
counsel or spiritual advisers of the
c,ndemned men to convey the tidings
t, them.
Governor Mann is carefully reading
a summary of the evidence at the
trials of Floyd and Claude Swanson
Allen. He is giving the matter the
e eatest consideration imaginable. Ii
his stu dy of the case he makes fire
quent reference to the record and after
persuing the statement OF the summary
he follows closly every line of the evil
dence set forth in the record. In this
way he can read the whole story in a
comparatively short time and at the
same time read it conaects.ily.
1t is not believed that Governor
Mann will interfere with the execution
OF the courts Judgment.

Mr.. william J. Smith, residing Just

fire on his window. As quickly as
possible he sent In an alarm to the
fire department and then, by means
OF garden hose, kept the flames from
securing hold on his own dwelling
which stands within a distance of
about ten feet from the bakery. The
prompt action on the part of Mr..
Smith saved the Comstock grocery
and the flats on the second floor of
the structure.
Everything inside of the bakery
was damaged by fire, smoke and wat.

was left burning over night with the
