Unusual Prisoner Held
In Clarke County Jail
For Murder

ATHENS, Sept. 16.-After lying
in Jail, refusing to battle or shave
since March 9, Wesley Brown, white,
was this week taken out of the cell
in Clark county jail in which Sheriff
Walter Jackson had been forced to
seal him and carried back to Ebert
county for trial in the term of court
now in session on charge of murder.
Brown was brought for safe-keep-
ing to the Clarke Jail in March, after
having been captured in South Caro-
lima nearly two years after he was
alleged to have committed the crime.
After he was locked up he found
wav to open the door of his cell and
get out into the cage which sur
rounds the rows of cells.
Sheriff Jackson at that time order
ed him to stay where he was put and
Brown promised ITO break out If ne
possibly could" The sheriff accept
ed the challenge with reply that he
would prevent his escape, ''if he pos
sibv could" After Brown had brok-
en- several padlocks which We're at,
tached as a precaution to his cell
door. Sheriff Jackson sealed the door.
It was necessary to remove the top
of the cell to release Brown this
week.
AS the prisoner had torn out the
electric wiring in his cell early in his
Incarceration, according to Officials
of the court house, he had lived IN
the dark for large part of the six
months he remained in jail here.

nominating meetings, but it is declared
improbable that any more women will

Miss Helen Varick Boswell, chair
man OF the women's committee Of the
New York County Committee, is the
only woman delegate. The alternates
are Mrs. Katharine T Hammer. leader
of the 9th Assembly District. who

Breckenridge Long
To Resign and Run
For i. S. Senate
Third Assistant Secretary of
State Expected to Retire
Soon From the Already
Disorganized Department

WASHINGTON. March 3..-Already
disorganized by the forced resignati
of Secretary of State Lansing, the
Forthcoming retirement Of Frank l..
Polk, Under Secretary, and the appoint
ment of William Phillips, First Assist
ant Secretary, as United States Min
lister to The Netherlands, the State De-
partment is facing another change of
personnel IN the probable early resig-
nation of Breckridge Long, Third AS
sistant Secretary.
Mr.. Long has political aspiration. A
man OF wealth, he contemplates run
ming for the United States Senate from
Missouri IN the coming campaign to
succeed Senator Seden p. Spencer Re-
publican, who was elected at special
election in November, 1918, to fill the
unexpired term Of the late Senator
Stone. Democratic members of the
Missouri delegation are far from shar-
ing the optimism Of the young Sec
tary, especially in view of the proba-
bility that former Speaker Clark will
smother his Presidential aspirations
and decide to be candidate for Spen-
GERS place.
Mr.. Long, as Third Assistant Secre-
tary of State, has been in charge Of
the DIVISION OF Far Eastern Affairs and
has had much to do with the shaping of
the Administration policy in Russia.
He is understood to have been respon-
sible in large measure for the decision
to withdraw the American troops from
Siberia.
Occupying one of the most snowy
residences in Washington, Mr. Long
during the war placed his home here at
the disposal OF the British War Mission,
headed by Arthur Balfour. and it was
also his residence that the King and
Queen of Belgium occupied on the oc-
casion of their visit to Washington.
Mr.. Polk, who has been Acting Secre-
tary of State since the detirement of
Mr.. Lansing, is anxious to leave Wash
ington, but at the request of the Presi-
dent has remained here pending the
Senate's action respecting the confirma-
tion of cambridge Colby, nominated
by Mr. Wilson as Mr.. Lansing's sue

being made against the Wilson Ad-
ministration by ex-senator Joseph W.
Bailey, who is not only running for
Governor, with some chances of win
ming, but may head the Texas delega-
ton to the San Francisco convention.
II Mr. Bailey is beaten, however, Mr.
Burleson will have considerable to say
about how the forty delegates of Texas
vote at the Democratic convention, and
ms support would be tremendously val
liable to Mr.. McAdoo. Aside from this
Mr.. Burleson, of coytse, as the result
of seven years of handling the patron
age Of his department in every state
IN the Union, has political influence
reaching not only every state but every
town in the country.
Marshaling this big machine in the
interest of McAdoo, and that is what
friends expect Mr.. Burleson to do un-
less he is directly called off by the
White House, gives MIR. McAdoo an ad-
vantage which will worry his compet-
itors, to say the least. OF all the other
candidates the only one-leaving Mr..
Hoover and his food organization out
or conslderation-who has any organ
lzation, built up by patronage is Mr..
Palmer
Thus the two strongly intrenched
candidates are McAdoo and Palmer. so
far as the Administration and its pat
ronage are concerned, while the anti
Administration elements, for the most
part, seem to be raliyng to Vice -Presi-
dent Marshall
There is much wonder here tonight
as to whether the President personally
favors Palmer or McAdoo. 1t is not
thought that the timing Of his intima-
tion, which did result in Palmer's
favor, was intended in that way. Also
it is thought that Mr.. Burleson would
scarcely dare to get behind McAdoo if
the President were pursuing a definite
policy with the idea of aiding Palmer.
Building on Burlesons action alone
politicians are inclined to think the
President at least is not unfriendly to
the candidacy of Mr.. McAdoo

The House Of Delegates of the West

urged by President Wilson to support

dents request. and again registered
their votes against suffrage to-day
They are the only Democratic Senators
who opposed it.
AS the situation stands, suffrage is
beaten in West Virginia, regardless of
the approval of the House. The Sen
ate cannot under the rules of parlia-
