nous when Bishop Gailor received sc

and l believe He has directed me.

thing in my power to make this church
Of ours realize the possibilities that

Bishop Gailor said be had expressed

Bishop Brent was his only opponent
Unanimous approval was voted by

worker who invests his life and that
Of his family in industry must have,
along with the capitalist who invests
his money, some voice in the control

There must be established a sane

ARMY TO INQUIRE
into PLANE CRASH
SIX KILLED AFTER SHIP SIDE
SLIPS IN FLIGHT.
MAY NEVER LEARN CAUSE
Six Victims VIII Be Buried Sunday.
Big Martin Bomber Was in Air
Beyond Range OF Powerful
Searehlight at Mineola.

Mineola, N. Y.-Preparations are un-
der way for an army board inquiry
into the crash of Martin bombing
plane which killed six army men at
Mitchell Field, at the conclusion of the
mimic battle of air and land forces.
The cause of the crash, it was said,
probably never would be known.
One of the six victims, it was re-
ported unofficially at the field, was a
"stowaway." Those killed were:
First Lieut. Raymond E. Davis, army
pilot, of Langley Field, Va.
Corporal David H. Stivens, New
York.
Private Edward Kane, who left no
home address.
Private Henry ]. Nichols, Car Hill,
Texas.
Private Irving M. Whitney, Ashburn-
ham, Mass.
An unofficial check-up of post as
signments of the victims of the trag.
edy failed to show that Whitney had
been assigned.
Army officers stress the point in dis
cussing that the bomber was beyond
the field of powerful searchlights,
which were used in the manouevres.
1t was at first believed that Davis had
become blinded by the brilliancy of
the shaft of light which criss-crossed
the dark skies.
Officers also disbelieved that the
purple land mist which drifted down
Long Island had in any way confused
Davis, who was recognized as one of
the best fliers of bombing planes in
the air service.
"Just another one of those air trag
edies which probably never will be ex
planned" Major Weaver, commanding
the field, said in his brief official an
nouncement of the accident.
The flight of the Martin bomber
was scheduled as single turn of the
field in order to give officers of the
reserve corps, for whose benefit the
manouevres are being held, an idea of
the low visibility of plane at night.
With his hangar lights to guide him,
Lieut.. Davis suddenly banked his ma
chine in preparation for landing. At
the top of the bank, when the wings
of the plane were almost perpendicu-
lar, the bomber suddenly side-slipped
and fell. A yellow flash of light cut the
dark for a moment as every infamma-
BILE object on the plane burned. The
bomber struck the ground with her
two motors wide open.
Three of the bodies had been thrown
clear of the wreckage. When the first
army surgeon reached the scene two of
the men were breathing. They died
before reaching the army hospital.
Explaining the application of the
term, "stowaway." to Private Whit
ney, it was said that there are any
number of privates and noncommis-
stoned officers stationed at the flying
field who have never had time in the
air. Many of these men entered the
service in the belief that flying would
become an everyday Occurrences in
their lives. When they found instead,
that their lives were filled from rev.
ellie to taps with an endless round of
hum-drum details, which seldom takes
them inside an airplane hangar, no OPP
portunity is lost of "going up" Whit
ney, it is believed, hoped into the
plane in the last minute and during
the excitement of taking off.

JEALOUSY BLAMED
FOR TWO MURDERS
FiFTEEN-YEAR-oLp GIRL GIVES
REASONS FOR OPINION.
CHILD DEFENDS MOTHER
Widows Statement-Bodies Of
Slain May Be Exhumed by
Authorities.

New Brunswick, N. IA jealous
woman killed my nom and Mr.. Hail."
With this thinly yelled accusation
confirming the present belief OF au-
thorities, Charlotte Mills, the mystery
girl, whom many believe holds the key
to the solution of the Hall-Mills MUIR
ders last Thursday night, unlocked her
lips for the first time in an interview
with the Universal Service.
Charlotte. who is only is years old,
discussed her opinions on the shoot
ing of her mother, Mrs. Eleanor Mills,
choir leader, and the Rev. Edward
Hall, rector Of the Church of ST. John
the Evangelist here. Charlotte said:
Il know a woman did 1t. That wo-
man was one who was Jealous and
wanted revenge. My mother was one
who, If accused of anything and knew
she was innocent, would fight all she
could. But she weighed only 11S
pounds, exactly my own weight, and
she was very weak.
"The woman who think killed my
nom and Mr.. Hall is three times
as strong as my mom-mother didn't
have a chance. This woman isn't like
ordinary folks. She has funny eyes
that make you afraid of her-sort Of
like a mans. She hates young peo-
Pile and looks on poor people as scum,
but she pretentds she has great SYM
pathy for them"
The girls suspicious and reasons
for them are known to the authorities
and they have under consideration the
issuance of grand jury subpoena to
the two hundred members of the
church congregation. Charlotte added:
"Why don't the authorities get Mrs.
Halls story. All of it? For instance,
when Mrs. Hall told father that Mr..
Hall had disapp cared, father asked her
whether Mr.. Hall had taken any money
out of the bank. Later Mrs. Hall told
my flasher that Mr.. Hall had not taken
any money out of the bank. Later Mrs.
Hall told my father that Mr.. Hall had
not taken out any money That an
swers Mrs. Halls guess that her hus-
band may have been killed by robbers
for money he carried.
MON liked Mrs. Hall. l didn't.
Mrs. Hall doesn't like flowers and l
guess l am one. l know there was
nothing wrong between my nom and
Mr.. Hall, except that she helped him
lot on his sermons. Nom did lot
OF work a pastors wife usually does.
Maybe someone connected with the
church was jealous because of this.
II know there is no ground for Mrs.
Halls suspicious, if she has any. My
mother may have been romantic, but
her character was beyond reproach. :"
Another matter of keenest official
scrutiny is story told by Mrs. Au.
guste Tennison sister of Mrs. Mills,
that after a tea party at the rector's
home last June, Mrs. Mills complained
of being seriously i'll. Mrs. Tennison
said:
my sister told me that the coffee
she drank at the party tasted SO
queerly that she could only drink part
of it. She left the party i'll and went
home. She told me she was not sure
Mrs. Hall was such good friend oil
hers"

MILLION DOLLAR
FIRE IN ATLANTA
BLOCK ON WHITEHALL BURNS.
OTHER SECTIONS THREATENED.
KRESS STORE TOTAL WRECK
Spectators Hamper Work Of Fremen

Ruins by Flames.

Atlanta, Ga. = Fire cut o wide
ao.e in the center of the dowl.own
business block surrounded By White
hall, Alabama and Broad streets and
the Western & Atlantic Railway yards,
with an estimated damage of about
81, 10000
The estimate Of the damage was
made by Robert Waggoner, lieutenant
of police.
Large crowds of spectators greatly
hampered work Of the fire fighters
and several times hose were resort.
ed to in driving the throngs back out
of danger of the flying sparks.
Hard to Fight Fire.
With the flames almost complete
ly surrounded, firemen had difficulty
in getting at it and the plaze was
jumping high into The air. with mod
crate wind blowing toward the north
west and heavy sparks flying toward
other buildings in that direction.
Thirty minutes after the fire was
discovered, it had practically wipeu
out building occupied by the Kress
five and 10-cent store and had spread
to the Childs Hotel, which faces on
Broad Street. The Mcclure Building
next door, also was burning, but slow
ly an automatic sprinkler system ap-
parently holding the fire in check in
this building.
Lieut.. Robert Waggoner of the At
lanta police force stated that what
appeared to be an explosion started
the fire in the second floor Of the
Kress store. From there the flames
spread to the L. F. M. department
store, and to Eiseman's clothing
store, three doors to the north and
facing on Whitehall Street.
The flames leaped over a small al
ley in the rear of Kress to the Childs
Hotel, which was burning shortly be-
fore 1 o'clock.
Among the buildings and firms that
had suffered fire and water damage
were the Woolworth five and 10-cent
stor. Liggetts drug store on the cor
ner of Whitehall and Alabama, Burt's
shoe store, verner's restaurant on
Broad Street; Folsom & Blanchard's
optical establishment, the French
Shop, on the Alabama Street side.
C. F. Clifford, resident manager Of
Kress', would not estimate the loss
his company had suffered. The build
ing occupied by the Kress company.
along with the stock OF goods that
firm had been almost completely de-
stroyed.
There was nothing on the second
floor to cause an explosion, Mr.. Gift
ford stated adding that he did not
know what caused the fire.
There had been no injuries re-
ported to the police early this morn
ing.
Guests also were driven from the
Kimball House, one of Atlanta's land
marks. on which several window avn
ings had been seen to catch fire and
burn.
Awnings on the opposite of White
hall Street from the fire also were
burned. but none Of the buildings
had been ignites.
Awnings on virtually all of the near
by office buildings were burned. One
on the seventeenth story of the Citi-
zens and Southern Bank Building
burned. as did another on the Fourth
National Bank Building.
