HICKMAN LOSES
| HIS APPEAL TO
| SUPREME COURT
Effort To Have Justice
Sutherland Save Young
Slayer Fails.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 8.-William
Edward Hickman, youthful kidnaper
and murderer of Marion Parker, 70
year-old school girl, today was de-
MED q United States supreme court
appeal of his sentence to the gal
lows.
He is scheduled to be hanged Oct.
10, at San Quentin.
Justice George Sutherland who
has jurisdiction over appeals from
the Pacific coast, refused to grant
an appeal from the California su-
preme court decision upholding the
sentence. This appeal, if granted,
would have automatically stayed the
execution, ending argument of the
case.
Jerome Walsh, youthful Kansas
!! City attorney, who represented Hick-
man, said after his conference with
the justice in chambers, that he in
tended to take his plea before other
members of the court, any one of
whom can allow such an appeal.
Justice Sutherland s refusal does
| not bar such action, he said.
LOS ANGELES, Oct. S. - Ia
| event all of the justices of the Unit
ed States supreme court refuse to
permit the case of William Edward
Hickman to be taken before that
body defense will make last ap-
| peal to Governor c.. G.. Young to
cOmmutate the sentence of the
youthful slayer, Attorney Richard
Cantillon said today.
Hickman's parents probably will
be brought to California to make a
personal appeal to the governor,
Cantillon said. The slayer's moth
er, Mrs. Eva Hickman, lives in Kan
| sas City, and his father, Thomas
Hickman, in Ell Paso.
Explaining the procedure, Can
tillon said if the United States
supreme court will not review the
case only the intervention of Gov
ernor Young can save the kidnaper
and murderer of Marion Parker.
Counsel, in attempting to take
! Hickman conviction before the
highest court, claim that the con
stitutional rights of the Kansas
City boy were violated by the pro-
cedure under which he was tried.
He pleaded not guilty by reason
of insanity. A jury found him
"sane at the time the crimes were
committed. - Under the new state
statutes he automatically was found
guilty when he was found sane.
Hickman s claim is that this pro-
cess is illegal since it refuses him
the constitutional right of a trial
for his guilt or innocence.
SAN QUENTIN PRISON, Calf,
Oct. S.-Preparations for the eXecu-
tion of William Edward Hickman,
slayer of Marion Parker, are pro

will go to the gallows October 10,

7 RAPED
BY BLAZE
Score Perish As Ohio
State Penitentiary Plant
Burns.
MANY ARE INJURED
Believe Blaze May Have
Been Part of Plot To
Escape.
By United Press Leased Wire

JUNCTION CITY, o., Oct s.
Twenty of the 2sS Ohio state pcni-
tentiary prisoners trapped by fire
in the dOrmitOry of the Junction
City brick plant were still missing
at 9:30 n. m, brick plant officials
announced after checking the re-
cords to determine the number burn
ed to death or killed in the rush TO
escape the flames.
OF the 26S accounted for, eight
were taken to the pcnitentiary ho,
pital in Columbus.
Some of the 20 were known to be
dead--victims of the fire itself or
trampled to death.
Deputy Warden Blosser said he
believed from u to Is had died in
the fire. Several bodies were found
burned beyond recognition. Parts Of
other bodies were found.
1t was possible, Blosser said, that
one or two of the 20 might have es-
capped from the stockade. That could
not be determined, however, until
the records could be checked with
those in the Columbus office.
|. y. Grafton, a guard first notic-
cd the fire from the outside. He
called another guard and they went
Immediately to the basement of tho
dormitory.
Pandemonium Reigns
Flames 90 feet high shot out as
they opened the door.
William O'Malley, 35, Cleveland,
serving six years for automobile
theft, smelled smoke shortly after
1890 a. M, he said. O'Malley, one
If the brick plant bakers, was in
the bakery. He rushrcd through the
building sounding the alarm.
Pandemonium broke loose: The
prisoners stormcd the doors and
windows.
Some were rramplcd to death,
others were killed by falling debris.
The brick plants fire whistle
aroused residents in Junction City
and vicinity. They were pressed
into service to guard the prisoners
who were at liberty inside the
stockade.
The fire, believed to have been
caused by defective wiring, broke
out in the basement, in which cloth
ing was stored.
JUNCTION CITY, o., Oct. s.
While Ohio state penitentiary Off
cials this afternoon continued their
search of the ruins of the state brick
plant dormitory fire, in which II
men were believed to have perish
ed early this morning, plans were
under way for an investigation OF
the origin of the blaze.
A state investigation was started
by John +. Harper, state welfare
director, John ID. BloOdgood, state
engineer and j. d. Clark, assistant
superintendent of the welfare de-
partmcnt.
Meantime, n telegram was receiv-
ed from Warden Thomas, who was
attending q convention in Kansas
City, to the effect that he planned
to leave for Columbus Immediately
and would open an investigation as
soon. as he arrived. He said he
would question all prisoners and
guards of the brick plant.
Although it was generally belicv-
cd that the fire was caused by de-
fcctive wiring or a faulty flue
there was a rumor that group OF
prisoners, plotting an escape, start
ed the blaze. The rumor, however,
could not be substantiated, and Of
ficials said they had not uncovered
any evidence of incendarism.

BROWN JOINS EDWARDS

SEATTLE, March IA. (P)-Mayor elect Edwards who takes office in June, won after intense campaigning which brought nearly 100000 to the polls setting new record in Seattle's municipal elections.
 A majority of 19,000 votes for Ed wards surpassed the expectations of his own managers. The close of the campaign was marked by former May or brown joining the ranks of the new mayor.
 The King county prosecutor has be- gun an investigation into the expendi- lures of the Edwards primary cam- paign when one of his managers re- puted acknowledged more money was spent than $15, ,oO0.
 It was reported in an official state ment that Edwards announced will leave on tour of the east with the dou- ble purpose of studying municipal ad- ministrations in other cities and bring ing new industries to Seattle.
 Erickson, Case and Blaine were re- elected Councilmen.
