GOVERNOR SMITH REPRIEVES
YELLOW CHARLESTON" SIX
HOURS BEFORE EXECUTION
TIME
preston News Service.l

preston News Service.)
Albany, N. Y, Sept. 11.-"Yellow
Charleston" the convicted slayer of
Barron Wilkins, was granted re-
prieve by Governor AL Smith six
hours before time for his execution.
The reprieve is effective until Sep
tember 18th. Warden Lawes at Sing
Sing received a telephone message
from Governor Smith at 5 o'clock,
and Julius Miller, alias "Yellow
Charleston" was prepared to go to
the chair at II o'clock.
1t is said that Miller was dressed
in the death suit of black and was
resigned to the death penalty. He
had requested that he be allowed to
wear tuxedo suit, but this had been
denied him. When he received the
news of his short lease on life, he
cried "Thank God," then broke down
and wept, prison attendants said.
His wife and two daughters, seven
and eight, were visiting him when
the news came. Miller had been ner-
vous all day, prison attendants say.
Keeper Sheehy said that when he
visited Miller's cell in the forenoon
Miller jumped and shouted, "Have
mercy on me-"
1t is said that the reprieve was
granted through a direct request to
Governor Smith by District Attorney
Banton. Mr.. Banton says there is
new evidence which may show that
Miller is not guilty. The evidence
was obtained through Earl Carroll,
it is said.

ment, the remains being surrounded

AUTOMOBILE CRASH PREVENTS
HOODED WHITES FROM KID
MAPPING HOTEL PORTER.
preston News Service.)


Waco, Tex, Sept. lit appears
that the hand of Providence inter-
vened here when an effort was made
to kidnap a Negro porter, said to be
the first of its kind here in more
than a year, became known to the
police late Tuesday night. Charley
Tidd, employed at a hotel in the
downtown district, told the police
that he was taken from in front of
the hotel while on the sidewalk by
four white men and placed in an
automobile, driven by another un-
masked white man. Tidd said the
car had been driven for some dis
tance, possibly about eighteen or
twenty city blocks, when it collided
with another machine which was
parked near the curb.
According to the police, Tidd said
that the five white men tore the
masks from their faces and fled as
soon as the crash occurred, leaving
him in the machine. Tidd told the
police that he then climbed out of
the machine and came to the police
station to report the affair.

have a few remarks to make on the Mon
ey Bill. Of course it is only that | wan
to facilitate matters in the passage OF
this bill that | am going to make these
remarks. This matter seems to have
been placed before the Colonial Council
merely as d matter of courtesy. II tnl5
Francs 600, 900. 90 is purely Fed oral Fund
| don't see .What the Council has TO do
with it at all. The Governor could as
we'll spend that money as authorised by
the President in his letter of March 10
and October "a, 1924. The Governor has
no necessity whatsoever to come to this
Council to ask US to approve the eXp3nd-
iture of this Francs 500, 000.0 90 from Fed
eral appropriation. Just why that has
been done | dOn't know. When we get
the yearly appropriation here expendi-
lures are made without consulting the
Colonial Council, take for instance the
Despatching Secretary's Office down
stairs, all the employees of that Office are
paid without consulting tn Council. |
appreciate the fact chat the Governor has
gone through exceeding trouble to place
the matter of the availability Of the bal
ance OF the Federal appropriation before
the President, and | understand that au-
thOrity is vested in the Governor 10 spend
that money. 1t is not my understand =
however that the balance of the Federal
appropriation is to be spent as municipal
funds. If this money is to be spent as
municipal funds then this bill is certainly
properly before the Council, but if it is
still Federal funds then | don't see what
this Council has to do with it. | want to
see this bill pass; the water supply and
the hospital are two Improvements that
are dear to my heart. / am going to vote
to spend the money as a matter of court
eSy to the Governor who has gone
through $50 much trouble to make this
money available; however | do not con
slider that this Council should legiSlate as
to how Federal funds should be expend-
ed. In line Is of the bill it says: And
provided: That the Governor is author
lied to purchase such real property, on
behalf of the Municipality, as be may
deem to be necessary for the water sup
ply systems. ETC." | want to make a lit
tie amendment there. The Governor re-
sides in St. Thomas and has to be in
formed through agency other than re-
representatives. of the people. If this is to
be a matter of Municipal control then the
Municipality OF ST. Croix ought to be
consulted as regards site and value of
any real property that may be purchased
