LONDON, June 22.-Two soldiers
of the Irish Republican army today
shot to death Field Marshal Sir
Henry Wilson, in front of his resi-
dence at Eaton Square, here.
Police combed the Eaton Square
district this evening in the hope of
finding four men believed to have
been accomplices of O'Brien and
Connolly.
After shooting Sir Henry, the two
assassins ran through the streets,
pursued by police, who constantly
guard Eaton square, where many
of the most prominent men in Eng
land have their London homes.
Shots were fired after them down
the narrow streets through which
they fled, past houses Of titled per
sonages and cabinet ministers who
were within earshot when Wilson
was killed.
The murderers turned and fired
at their pursuers, keeping UP a run
ming gun fight for three-quarters OF
a mile.
An eyewitness to the tragedy told
the following story of the shooting:
II was in the neighborhood of
Eaton square, and heard shots ring
out. I looked in time to see two
armed men pumping bullets frofn
their revolvers into the body Of Sir
Henry. When I reached him, his

DIPPING VAT ROW
RESULTS IN DEATH

VALDOSTA, Ga, June 23.-One
man was killed and another believed
to be fatally wounded in a clash
arising from the cattle dipping con-
troversy in Echols county Thurs
day.
In making public Thursday a let
ter received by him from DIR. Peter
F. Bahnsen, state veterinarian. re-
garding the tick eradication stu
alton in Echols county, where sew
eral dipping watts have recently been
dynamited by enemies Of the dip
ping law, Governor Hardwick made
the comment that apparently
state of anarchy prevails in the
county," and that he is poWerless
to deal with it because the law does
not allow him to order out troops
until the sheriff, or superior court
judge, officially advises him that
the situation is beyond control.
Neither of these officials in Echols
county, the governor pointed out,
preventing the RED Devils" as the
dynamiters call themselves, from
continuing their operations, so that
the governor has no authority to de-
clare martial law. He indicated that
he would not hesitate to employ
whatever measures were necessary
to protect the watts and put an end
to the dynamiting operations, up to
the point where the law allows him
to go.
DR.. Bahnsen in his letter to the
governor, incloses a letter from the
Echols county commissioners re-
Questing state aid. A request from
these officials, the governor point
ed out, does not warrant him in
sending troops.
DR.. Bahnsen requested the gov
ernor to advise him with regard to
instituting injunction proceedings in
Echols superior court to restrain
the dynamiters. The governor did
not pass upon this question, but re-
ferred it to Attorney General Napier,
with request that he examine into
the law to ascertain what steps, if
any, could be taken to protect the
dipping watts and punish the dyna-
miters. 49,
DIR. Bahnsen on Ground
DR.. Bahnsen left Wednesday night
for Statewide, the county seat Of
Echols county, to take personal
charge of the cattle dipping situa-
ton. He informed his friends before
leaving that he had received warn
ings that the Red Devils" would
! kill him if he entered the county.
Some of his friends there, he said,
urged him not to come the usual
/, route but to go into Florida and
come up from the south, if he felt
obliged to come. Echols county
borders the Florida line.
