SHOT NEGRO DOWN
BUT He ESCAPED
iPOLICE ARE PUZZLED AS TO
WHERE HE WENT AFTER
BEING SHOT.

A negro burglar was shot down last
night by Officer Cowman shortly be-
fore II o'clock; shot down to the
ground, but still he escaped, and three
members of Brunswick's police force
are more than puzzled as to where he
went after receiving a bullet in his
back
Just before II o'clock last night a
negro woman 'phoned the police bar
racks, stating that she had just passed
the store of Mrs. Hesse, corner of
Wolf and George street, and that burg
lars were then attempting to enter the
tore. Officers Levison, Cowman and
Russell, all of whom wehe at the bar
racks at the time jumped into an auto
and reached the scene. within a few
minutes. They quickly surrounded the
little store, Officer Cowman taking a
stand near a side fence, where one
or two of the pailings had been torn
off. Just second after he arrived
there he saw the negro coming for the
hole in the fence, but the burglar saw
the officer when about ten feet away
and turned and started in another di-
rection, whereupon Officer Cowman
fired directly at him. The negro fell
to the ground, and the officer thought
he had him. He called to the other
two officers and they all rushed inside
the fence, but the negro was gone.
Negroes in the rear of the store
called to the officers that the wounded
man haG crawled under the house. A
thorough search was made, in all of
the yards, under the house and every
where else, but the negro was never
located. Officer Cowman stated after
wards that he was sure he struck the
negro when he fired upon him, that
he saw him fall to the ground, there.
fore the officers are very much pit
zled over his disappearance.

FROM MACON TO
M|LLfDGEV|LLE
IN AUTOMOBILE
SENSATIONAL MURDER CASE
COMES TO AN END BY
COMPUTATION OF SEN
TENCE ON EVE OF DATE
SET FOR HANGING.

ATLANTA, June Ex-Governor
Slaton today commuted l.. NJ Franks
death sentence for the murder of
Mary Phagan to life imprisonment
Official announcement o. the decis-
ion was made several he RS after
Frank had been secretly rem wed from
the county Jail here and taken to the
state prison farm near Millelgeville.
An extra edition of a local news
paper early in the day stated unoffi-
cially that Franks sentence had been
commuted and crowds began to gath
er on downtown street corners. one
man went after mounted policeman
and attempted to dismount the officer
by seizing his horses reins. This stir
red one crowd to a high pitch of ex-
element but the incident passed with
out any violence. .-
| A speaker tried to address a crowd
that packed around the city hall short
ly after the decision of the governor
became known but city police stopped
the meeting at once.
Frank left Atlanta at midnight over
the Central of Georgia for Macon. He
was in charge of Sheriff Mangum and
a number of deputies. An automobile
met the sheriff and his prisoner at
Macon, and within thirty minutes aft
er the trains arrival Frank was
speeding to the state farm near Mil
ledgeville. The only stop in Macon
after leaving the union station was
at a garage for some oil. Frank, ac-
cording to reports, appeared rather
nervous and ill at ease.
Leaving the local Jail by a rear door,
the officers took the prisoner in an
automobile to the railroad station,
where a deputy had purchased tick
cts for the party to Macon. Frank
was not handcuffed. He did not wear
the heavy spectacles he generally
wore. A black, soft hat was pulled
down over his face.
When the train reached Macon sew
eral persons at the station saw Sher-
iff Mangum and Frank alight from a
Pullman and Frank was positively
identified.
Obtaining an automobile the party
started from Macon for Milledgeville,
a distance of 81 miles, arriving there
at 4:30 o'clock this morning.
So secretive had been the officials
here as to their plans that not even
the superintendent at the prison farm
mad been notified that Frank would
be there today.

BIG CROWD OFF

ANY TROUBLE=-FIFTH REG
MENT WAS BEING HELD IN
READINESS. |

ATLANTA, June 21 IN p.m.)
Crowds which have thronged
the streets of Atlanta during the
day and which surrounded the
capitol, all of whom strongly
showed their disapprovaI of the
communication of the sentence of
Leo M. Frank, were rapidly dis
persed during the afternoon, but
as night came on we're rapidly
increased.
1t was reported at 10 o'clock
tonight that mob composed of
several thousand people were
headed for Governor SIaton's
country home five miles from
Atlanta, and this rumor occa-
stoned considerable excitement.
Policemen on horseback and a
large number of officers in au-
tomobiIes were hurried to the
scene.
1t is also reported that armed
guards have been stationed
about the governors home and
every precaution has been taken
to avoid trouble.
Members of the Fifth Georgia
regiment have assembled at
their armory ready to be called
out it their services are needed.
The announcement that the mi
litia had assembled started riot
rumors, which were current all
over the city during the early
part of the night.
MARIETTA CARS STOPPED.
The local street railway COM
pany during the day discontin-
ued its cars to Marietta, in
which the large crowds had
come during the day. Unable
to reach Atlanta by street cars
many Of the country folk hired
automobiles and came to the
city, joining the crowds on the
street and around the capitol.
So far no violence has been
attempted. Members of the
mobs have confined themselves
to loud talking and many
threats.
SALOONS CLOSED.
AN beer saloons and locker
clubs have been closed during
the day, and very little if any
drunkenness has been seen on
the streets. 80
1t is believed that the crowd
simply wished to show their dis
pleasure and resentment over
Governor SIaton's action in COM
muting Franks sentence and
when this is done will return
from their long march to his
country residence.
Very little, if any, disorder is
seen on the main streets of At.
