vaughan MAY
Be QUALIFIED
IMMEDIATELY
New Federal Judge May Not
Wait for Arrival of Com
mission From Capital

Unless he receives special cabled
instructions from the department OF
justice, Horace w. Vaughan will not
qualify as local United States judge
until the arrival of his commission
from Washington, d. c. Mr.. Vaughan
says that the department may wish
him to qualify at once without wait
ing for the necessary papers.
A cablegram TO the Star-Bulletin
yesterday afternoon from its Wash
ington correspondent announced the
confirmation by the senate judiciary
committee of the nominations Of Mr..
Vaughan, Clement K. Quinn, Chief
Justice A. G. NJ. Robertson and Circuit
Judge William L. Whitney. The NOM
ination Of ]. Wesley Thompson, who
is slated to succeed Circuit Judge
John A. Matthewman OF Hawaii, has
been deferred by the senate commit
tee pending the arrival of a communi-
cation from these islands.
Judge Quinn said today that no date
has been set for his qualification be-
fore the local supreme court, and
consequently he has set no date for
his departure to the Big Island. 1t
is understood that the delay in the
Thompson appointment was due to a
request by citizens of the Big Island,
who stated that they desired Judge
Matthewman to be continued in office
until he decided the Waimea water
case. This case was decided last Sat
urday, Judge Matthewman finding for
the territory. *'
s. C. Huber of Tama, Iowa, whose
nomination as district attorney for
Hawaii was confirmed by the senate
a few days ago, is expected to arrive
here next Tuesday in the Wilhelmina.
Little doubt prevails in federal court
circles that Samuel B. Kemp, former
Texas judge and now assistant district
attorney, will be continued in office
under the Huber regime.

HILOITES AIM
OPPOSITION At
R. v. BRECkONS
Republicans of Delegation Say
They Want Man Raised
In Islands

Robert w. Breckons for the next
national committeeman OF the Repub-
lican party is opposed by at least
some of the delegation from the Hilo
district.
This. was made plain by John T..
Moir, one of the leaders of the Big
islanders, in statement to the Star
Bulletin at the dock just before he
left on the Mauna Kea for Hilo to-
day.
Il have nothing personal against
Bob Breckons," Moir declared, "and
none of my fellow delegates are op-
posed to him personally, so far as
knew, but we do not favor him for
national committeeman"
Moir gives as his reasons for this
opposition the feeling among the Hilo-
ties that the national Committeeman
should be a man who has been raised
in the islands-one who has been
rocked in the cradle of island beliefs
and schooled in island lore, so TO
speak.
Il do not feel" says Moir, that
Breckons is such man. He is a
man from the states"
Picks No Favorite.
Moir would not pick a man as his
favorite for the position of national
committeeman. He declared that he
has no special choice, save that the
candidate shall be an island man.
Henry J. Lyman, delegate chosen
on Monday to accompany Prince Ku-
hio to the Chicago convention, denies
nh 49, r.. H.. Z, nj
to support Breckons for national COM
mitteeman.
q am pledged to support no one, I"
Lyman declares, +and least of all
Robert Breckons. I shall not recon-
mend Breckons for the position" r.
Lyman declined to discuss why he
is opposed to Breekons, but remarked
that the national committeeman ought
to be one not in any special circle Of
faVoritism When pressed for the
reasons of his opposition to Breckons,
he referred the questioner to Moir
''You tell him, John. why we are
opposed to Breckons," he said.
And John told.
Lyman is still a staunch Roosevelt
man and firm believer in Roose-
velt's policies, but he will not go to
Chicago determined to vote for Roose-
welt and for no one else. He will
wait and see what may come.
Lyman Not Pledged. =
''lf find that Roosevelt is showing
up strong / will vote for him at the
convention" Lyman declared, "but
so far | am not pledged to vote for
any certain man. -" .,.. a.. }>.s. T. stF
The delegate also mentioned the
name of Associate Justice Charles E.
Hughes, remarking that his will be
enc of the prominent names at the
convention, as will also that OF Elihu
Root -.'t. ..,..s@s r-..zs 5sses
However" says Lyman, IT am too
far away from the mainland to make
any prediction as to who will be the
final choice of the convention"
Many delegates from Hawaii left
this morning on the Mauna Kea, and
they did not keep their happiness a
secret. As H. L.. Holstein, veteran
party man, remarked as the steamer
was pulling out: +. Il.
I'VE ought to feel good; we cleaned
up the other fellows
Delegate Lyman will be back to the
city in about three weeks. He re-
marked that he hoped the party would
be settled down to a choice for its
national committeeman by that time.

wALHAIIA SOUTH CAROLINA, WEDNESDAY, MAY II, 1916
a WACO, TEXAS, HORROR.
Negro, onvictcd and Sentenced,
Taken by Mob and Burned.

Waco, Texas, May 15.---With 49,
600 persons as witnesses, including
women and children. Jesse Washing
ton, negro boy, who confessed to
the assault and murder of Mrs. Lucy
Fryar, seven miles south OF here last
Monday, was taken from the Fifth
District court room shortly before
noon and burned on the public
square.
The burning came Immediately af-
ter the negro's trial had ended and
the jury had returned a verdict Of
guilty, giving him the death penalty.
Get the Negro.
Some one not far from the negro
started the cry Of "get the negro"
1t was taken up by all Of those from
the part Of the county where Mrs.
Fryar was killed, and Washington
was then seized and removed from
the court room. The crowd at first
seemed willing to hang the negro
from the suspension bridge. but Il
suggestion that he be burned on the
plaza met with instant response and
he was dragged to the city hall yard,
where the chain, already around his
neck, was thrown over the limb of a
tree, wood hastily secured and the
fire started.
After the verdict had been return
ed Washington said in a half audi
Bile whisper, "I'm sorry l done it,"
The rush to secure the negro came
with such suddenness that officers,
lawyers and newspaper men were
swept off their feet and the victim
was in the hands Of the mob before
any one could stop the proceedings
Dragged Through Streets.
While the crowd that took Wash
| ington from the court room is said
to have been composed of people
from the country, they were joined
| by many citizens of Waco, and IN
some instances, it Is said, they left
| their places of business to view the
burning Of the negro. After the fire
had burned itself out, the body
burned to crisp, was viewed by O
coroner's jury.
Later in the day members OF the
mob returned to the scene of the
burning, placed the charred body in
sack and dragged it through the
principal streets behind an automo-
bile, to Robinson, where Mrs. Fryal
was killed, and what remained Of il
was suspended from a telephone pole
| there.
