AN INNOCENT MAN PUT
TO DEATH. SAYS WARDEN

Sing Sing, n. Y, Oct. 13.-Thom-
as Bambrick, of New York City, was
electrocuted in the State Prison 70;
the murder of George Dapping, a
New York policeman, a year ago
Bambrick had twice been reprieved
by the Governor, and unsuccessful
attempts to obtain a third reprieve
continued up to the very hour of his
execution.
Thomas NJ. Osborne, Warden OF
Sing Sing Prison, asserted in an adj
dress before 200 bankers and bust
ness men in New York City: There
is not doubt in the world that this
man is innocent"
Mr.. Osborne's declaration surpris-
ed his audience, who were members
of the Industrial Finance Corpora
tion attending their annual conven-
ton.
Several bankers hurried TO tele.
phone booths and eudeavored to call
the Governor at Albany, but his see
rotary, w. y. Orr. declined to have
the Governor awakened unless the
petitioners had some new evidence
TO submit.
Just before Bambrick left his cell
for tho death house he again told
the prison chaplain, Rev. Father
Cashin, that he was innocent. Three
electric shocks caused death.

To Swing the Doubtful
States, Is Charged.
HUNDREDS OF OARK|ES COMING
Into Indiana, Ohio and Michigan
Officials To Keep
ClOce Walsh.
PROSECUTIONS WILL FOLLOW

Washington, Oct. 14.-It became
known to-day that the Department
of Justice has taken cognizance of
the claims of prominent business
men that the. large number of ne
groes who are being persuaded 20
leave the South, particularly the cot
tongrowing States, and come North,
ostensibly to work, are in reality be-
ing brought into doubtful States TO
participate in the national election.
Whether or not these nonpartisan
claims and fears are justified, it de-
velops that the department has been
in correspondence with its Distric;
Attorneys in various States, and the
closest watch is to be kept for cleo
ton frauds.
In some instances, it is reliably
asserted, the District Attorneys back
up the suspicious of Democratic pol
iticians, and have assured the de-
partment that they will be vigilant
before and on election day.
Ohio, Indiana and Michigan are
said to be receiving hundreds of la
borers imported from the South. It
was declared to-day that the two
Democratic candidates for the Sem
ate in Indiana, Senators Taggart and
Kern, were among the first Demo-
Gratis to suspect vOte-getting
scheme, and their fears are reflected
in other Democratic quarters.
The Department of Justice, it APP
pears, has begun an investigation of
the exodus from the South, and
there will be relentless prosecutions
in the event 'colored ringers are
voted in any State.
Prosecutions are to be made re-
gardless of whether imported voters
cast their ballots for the Dem ocratic
or Republican tickets.
1t has been charged in Democratic
circles. however. that the Republic
an party is more likely TO Denent by
the influx of hosts of negro voters
from the South, and it is intimated
that large sums are being expended
to bring the Southern laborers to
Northern States.
The Republican vote in the South,
il is pointed out, is negligible, but in
close States the change of ia few
hundred votes might affect the re-
suit of the Presidential, Senatorial
and Congressional elections.
There is authority for the state
ment that the Department of JUS
tice, aside from the question of par
tisanship, will insist that District At
torneys be on the alert on election
day.

vARDAMAN WINS FIGHT.
President Wilson Decides to Appoint
White Democrat to Fat Job.

The fight that has been made
by Senotor Vardaman, of Mississ-
ippi, for over two years, to pre-
vent the appointment of a negro
as register of deeds of the Dis
trict of Columbia, one of the high
est salaried positions in Washing
ton, has been crowned with sue
cess.
When Bishop Alexander Wal
tiers, president of the negro De--o-
cratic League, called on President
Wilson recently in a final effort to
land the place for a negro demo
crat, he was told by the President
that he had decided to appoint a
white man to the position.
The President, according to
Bishop Walters, based his refusal
to follow the time honored custom
Of naming a negro for the place
on the ground that the nomination
of man of that race could not be
confirmed in the Senate. At the
same time. Bishop Walters stated,
the President promised to name
negroes to several minor positions
still vacant.
The position of register of deeds
has been vacant almost three
years. 1t has been held by
negroes for twenty years, each
succeeding administration appoint
ing mon of thar race.
'Yun vas whispered about
I al Pr sldcnt " ilson intended to
f llow the custom, Senator Varda-
man called on him and served
notice that he wotfld never permit
the appointmentefa negro to be
confirmed by the Senate. Having
practically already promised some
Of the negro political leaders that
he would appoint a negro, the
President waited for two years for
Mr. Vardaman to give way. But
Mr. Vardaman held fast, and said
that if the appointment was made
he would present the matter to the
Southern Senators in a way that
the negro could never be confirm
ed.
