Four Accused
OF Abduction
In Coast City

Olympia. Wash, Aug. 23.-(AP)-
Prosecutor Smith Troy announced to-
day officers had rounded up all four
night raiders accused of the revenge
abduction and attempted mutilatlon
of Irving Baker, former Coast Guard
officer. The fourth man taken into
custody, Troy said, was Robert Smith,
80, arrested early today at his 1arm
home 20 miles west fo Olympia.
Smith admitted he participated in
the kidnapping and assaults under al.
together different circumstances
from the others involved, the prosecu-
tor reported, and promised a complete
statement later.
Previously jailed on kidnapping and
assault charges were DR.. K. w. Berry,
54-year-old Olympia physician; James
Reddick, 27, taxi driver, and William
K. McAloon, former night marshal at
Montessano, Wash.
The prosecutor accused DR.. Berry OF

CAPITAL Wonders Whether

Hog Populace Is ,
Reviving Slowly

Chicago, Aug. 23.-(AP)- Re
building of the national hog pOpu-
lation progressed under the most
favorable circumstances in years
today, with fifth anniversary of the
governments Inauguration of
slaughtering program. Swine herds
on farms have come back barely 13
percent from the century's low
point, after the serious 1884
drought, but an abundance of
cheap feed. a good market price
and favorable weather conditions
are stimulating breeding and fat
tening.
The hog price is more than dOu
bic that on the day the first of g.
100000 small pigs and 100000 bred
sOws sold to the government were
killed. In August, 1888, hogs were
bringing around 81 per hundred
weight, a recovery of less than 81
from the record lows touched in
1882.
With corn now quoted around so
cents, the current hog price of close
to SO offers an unusually favorable
feeding ratio, livestock men said.

4 Prisoners
Scalded To
Their Death
Hunger-Striking Men
Met Violent Deaths In
Philadelphia, Coroner
Declares

Philadelphia, Aug. 23-(AP)-Coron-
er Charles Hersch said today examin-
alton of the bodies of four hungry
striking prisoners found in cells at the
Philadelphia county prison showed de-
finitely that the men were scalded to
death.
There is no question but that these
men met their death by scalding," he
said Their hands were shriveled, in
dicating immersion in hot water or
steam.'
Warden William Mills said he could
not contradict the coroner, but "can't
see how that could have taken place.
We certainly used no steam or hot
water on the men, and there are no
steam or hot water pipes in the build
ing in which they were confined
Meanwhile, at least four investiga-
tions got under way, and autopsies
were scheduled for later today. State
Secretary of Welfare Charles Engard
sent two special investigators to the
institution with orders to "get to the
bottom" of the hunger strike which
resulted in the four being placed in
punishment cells, where their bodies
were found yesterday. They were a
mong more than 600 prisoners who
had refused to eat in protest against
a "monotonous diet" Of hamburger
and spaghetti.
DR.. Morton Crane, the coroner's ply
sician, declared the men had died
violently.
The warden began a separate inves-
tigation along with city and county
officials.

Says Hines
Had Pledged
National Chairman
Had Pledged Aid to
Men Who Beat Sena-

Both of Whom Might
Run as Independents

New York, Aug. 23-(AP)- George
Weinberg, So, ex-convict, and once
business manager of the multi-mil-
lion dollar Dutch Schultz policy en-
pre- testified in supreme court today
that Tammany district leader James
J. Hines promised protection" from
police raids on Harlem policy banks
Il paid Jimmy Hines $500 a week
and hire for protection" Weinberg
said. The witness testified that dur
ing one of his frequent "pay-off' meet
ings with the politician, he talked to
Hines about the police.
What did you say to Hines?" ask
ed District Attorney Thomas Dewey.
II told him there were too many
arrests" Weinberg said.
"Hines asked if there was some
particular cop causing the trouble"
the witness continued II told him I
didn't want to have any cop broke
Hines promised he would try to do
something about the police, Weinberg
went on, "and later the number of
arrests in policy ban kraids decreas-
ed"
Before our talk the arrests aver
aged about 20 day. Afterwards they
dropped to maybe four, five or six a
day"
Hines listened placidly to Vein
berg's story. The 61-year-old Tam
many stalwart showed no sign Of
emotion.

Might
Lead Reform
For Ballots
His Amazing Control
0 We r Legislature
Shows He Can Have
His Own Wishes
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In The. Sir Walter Hotel.

Raleigh, Aug. Ex-Governor Hoey's S
amazing hold upon his 1887 General
Assembly, first shown in the regular,
then demonstrated more convincingly
in the special session, appears fairly
certain for the 1889 body.
The incoming parliament is one of
those bodies which nearly all the
scribes in Raleigh know aforetime.
Many of the 1887 members fell in
primaries and convention, but their
victors in many instances are just as
well known. Governor Hoey looked
over the list of 1889 a few days ago
and one of his close friends said his
excellency can shake hands with the
utmost familiarity, calling 80 per cent
of them by their first names.
Mid-term assemblies generally have
been friendly to incumbent COVER
nors, the executive having gained the
advantage of individual strength and
weakness in the regular sessions. The
1899 legislature has very large num-
ber of individuals set upon ballotbox
purges. Governor Hoey probably viii.
have to put brakes upon them.
They will repeal the absentee bal
lot law, in their present mood, GER
tainly as it applies to primaries. It
is considered doubtful that Governor
Hoey would be willing to leave the is
sue there. He has not said or done
anything yet to justify the reformers

boards, read in Wake Superior Court
today, charged the State Board of
Elections with using illegal and
high-handed' methods in revising re-
suits of the Democratic run-off pri-
mary in the eighth congressional dis
trict.
J. G. B. Ehringhaus, counsel for w.
0. Burgin, of Lexington, asserted the
State board coerced county boards in
to signing returns that gave C. B.
peano, of Rockingham a bare ma
jOrity over Burgin. County board mem
bers, Ehringhaus said, were informed
If they did not follow the orders of
the State board they would be dis
charged
"The State board sent orders to
county boards which said: DO what
we say, or you will die officially, ("
EhringhauS asserted.
Ehringhaus read an affidavit from
Sam H. Lee, chairman of the Union
County Board of Elections, which said
congressional ballots in the wrong
boxes, even though he and other mem
bers of his board were convinced
there was a strong possibility the
votes were fraudulent.
An affidavit by Jesse C. Leigh, a
member of the Richmond board. said
that the other two members of his
board changed originally certified re-
turns without informing him of their
plans.
Burgin seeks a mandamus to force
the State board to certify him as the
Democratic nominee for the United
States House of Representatives in
the eighth congressional district.
Counsel for the State board objected
to the affidavits being included as
evidence. Judge w. G. Harris sustain
tanned the objections tentatively, but
ordered that most of the facts con-
tanned in the documents be admitted.

Raleigh, Aug. 23.-Relatively liberal
appropriations to Negro institutions
by the late General Assembly are said
to have taken much of the enthusiasm
for the courts away from citizens of
the race who had indicated their pur-
pose to try those courts again.
The General Assembly gave to the
Negroes much bigger proportion of
the money asked than was allotted
the whites. It is true the white in
stitutions made much bigger requests.
For the whole University of North
Carolina plant there was asked near
ly $4,5OO,OOO The compromise was less
than one third. One of the Negro in
stitutions which sought $35O,000, in
round numbers, got about $24OOOO,
more than +wo-thirds. The legislature
adopted toward these schools some
what the philosophy employed toward
the elemonsynary institutions. One
set of needs was immediate, man
datory. The hospitals were bulging
with patients and the jails were be-
ing used for purposes of detention
until enlargements could be made. 1t
was contended that in the colleges
there was no actual suffering. that
the plants could get along some how
Negroes have been demanding great
er facilities, but most of the requests
have come from the outside. Nearly
all the incentive to use the courts is
foreign. The National Association for
the Advancement of Colored People
has clamored for larger institutional
appropriations so that full university
courses shall be available for Negroes.
No State institution has those, except
