The Chicago whip., 1921-06-11

At meeting in the Municipal Build
ing, Tulsa citizens claimed the COM
plete fall-down of the city and county
law-enforcing agencies was responsible
for the wholesale destruction of life
and property.
Adjt.-Gen. Barrett. commanding the
State troops in Tulsa County, was en-
phatic in charging that a complete
fall-down of the local peace officers
was responsible for the rioting and said
that the factors which led to it were
hysterical girl and an irresponsible
newspaper reporter.
Gen. Barrett said that he came to
Tulsa with 100 uniformed men from
Oklahoma City and in short time paci-
fed $4,000 armed, milling men, and
said the sheriff could have done it with
equal facility if he had used his power
to deputize assistants. The General
said the presence of six uniformed DO
licemen or half dozen Deputy Sher-
ifs at the county building Tuesday
night when whites, bent on taking
from the jail Dick Rowland, would
have prevented the riot.

COULD NOT CONVINCE JURY He KILLED
MEN THROUGH FEAR OF. DEATH
Accepts Sentence Stocally Makes Immediate Motion For
New Trial Hearing Set For July.

Covington, Ga, June ll.-After As
minutes of deliberation, Clyde Man
ming was found guilty of murder, with
recommendation for mercy, here last
week.
Manning was on trial for his life in
the famous Death Farm murder
case.
He relied on the defense that he
committed the murders at the COM
mand of his master" John s. Will
lisms, in order to save his own life.
Did Not Convince Jury
According to Georgia statutes, the
charge of murder will not lie against
an accused ii he can prove to the
jury that he committed the offense in
order to save his own life. The jury's
verdict thus proves that Manning did
not convince them that he stood in
danger of certain death if he had not
obeyed his masters commands
AS in the case of Williams, the mas
ter-slayer, the recommendation for
mercy automatically carries with it a
sentence of life Imprisonment
The defense will probably ask for
a new trial.
Manning was defended by Judge A.
D. Meador, and E Marvin Under
wood, both white They insisted that
the state had failed to prove ma
licious intent-the only possible means
to meet Manning's plea that he had
killed the men through fear They
read many legal decisions confirming
the legal precept that crime committed
in duress is not punishable
Peonage Stories Retold
Virtually all of the testimony offered
during the trial was a REPETITION of the
peonage stories told the jury at the
Williams trial, of men and women
huddled chained together in stockades
like hogs, of the frequent beatings OF

Only Ruins L eft

1t was shortly after midnight that
whites, apparently carrying kerosene,
or some other highly inflammable sub
stance, entered the district and started
the fires that before daylight had re-
duced it to smouldering ruins. Green
wood avenue, principal business street
in the district, is mass of broken
bricks and debris. Only gas and water
pipes, bath fixtures, bedsteads or other
metal fixtures remain to mark the
places where homes once stood. The
residences remaining intact can almost
be counted on ones hand. There is
not an undamaged business building in
the entire district
The ruins of the burned district con-
tinued to shoulder until late Wednes-
day night. Here and there during the
day the smoking debris would break
into flames. Satisfied that all snipers
had been put out of the way, hocked
down Cincinnati and Detroit avenues
to witness the results.
Personal belongings and household
goods had been removed from MANY
homes and piled in the Streets On
the steps of the few houses that re-
NAMED sat feeble and gray men and
women, and occasionally small child.
The look in their eyes was one of de-
lection and suppiication. Judging from
their attitude, it was not of material
consequence to them whether they
lived or died. Harmless themselves.
they apparently could not conceive the
brutality and fendishness of men who
would deliberately set fire to the homes
of their friends and neighbors. and just
as deliberately shoot them down in
their tracks.
