KILLED IN WRECK

Thomas Watson Cooper, presSnan
for years with the job department
Of The State company, was almost
instantly killed early yesterday morn
sng when touring car crashed into
a tree on the Gamers Ferry road. j.
K. Mannigan, u ruler employed by the
RI. Bryan company, was driving
the car at the time of the collision
and escaped with an ugly wound on
his right leg, bruises and shock.
Messrs. Cooper and Mannigan left Tho
1900 block on Main street shortly af,
ter ) o'clock yesterday morning for
a trip down the Gamers Ferry road
and n few minutes later the car
struck a tree about 200 yards beyond
Hcath's corner. Henry Powell was
coming towards Columbia and he and
two unknown soldiers in training at
Camp Jackson brought Cooper and
Mannigan to the Columbia hospital.
Young Cooper passed away on the
road to the hospital. Mr.. Mannigan
was given medical attention and last
night it was said that his injuries
are not considered serious. Mr.. Coop
cr died from the effect of wounds on
the head.
The machine hit tree Immediate
ly in front of X. K. Camak's home.
The right front wheel was crushed
into small pieces and the tire on the
right wheel was torn from its posi-
tion when the car swung around to
the left and settled, headed toward
Columbia. The windshield was
broken in many parts and glass lit
tered the paved roadway. Mr.. Ca
maak, who was in the rear of his
home, heard the crash and rushed to
the scene, where he found Mr. Mann-
gan walking around with blood gush-
| ing from wound on the leg. Mr..
Cooper was lying in front of the car
! and to all appearances life was eX-
tinct. Mr.. Camak said he bandaged
| Mr.. Mannigan's leg as soon as he saw
| there was nothing he could do for
Mr.. Cooper. Henry Powell was the
first man to approach the scene in
anu l"o
hurried to the hospital with the two
men. Mr.. Cooper was pronounced
dead at the hospital and Coroner
Scott was notified. He investigated
| the accident and decided that an in
! quest was unnecessary.
Tracks leading from tie pavement
to The Tree indicate that Mr.. Manni-
gan lost control of the Machine about
so feet from the point of contact. The
fresh prints showed that the wheels
rolled on the dirt and then made u
curve toward the paved roadway.
Another curve To the right carried the
machine head-on to the tree. Mr.
! Cooper was on the right side Of ihe
! front seat and the position Of the
! moving car placed him Immediately
: in front of the tree when the col
lision occurred The sudden stop c\i-
IDENTIFY threw the young man against
the tree with terrific force as he was
killed by the wounds ON the top Of
his head. Mr.. Camak said Mr.. Coop
cr never uttered a sound after he
! reached the scene.--Thc State.

Richmond, Va, July 21.-The re-
turn of ten clerks to their desks in the

other hand, he has warned them that
tomorrow will be the last day and
that the company will fill permanent
ly all vacancies that exist after 10
o'clock.

that only 399 employees walked out

Brotherhood of Railway Clerks de-
clare that the percentage of strikers
is larger than that announced by the
railroad and that others are joining
the ranks daily.

erhood headquarters tonight, it was
estimated that between 400 and 500
clerks of the Chesapeake & Ohio in

partment, it is stated, is 100 per cent
