PRESIDENT WILL
APPOINT BULL1TT
Washington, June 28.?It -was doll
roiuly announced at the White House
to-day that William Marshal: Bullltt,
tho young attorney t f Louisville, Ky.,
will bo tho next S-jltoitor-Genural of
the United States.
His nomination to jucoced Frederick
W. Lehmann will be sent to tho Senate
for confirmation on Monday, according
to Senator Bradley, of Ker.tiicky. who
conferred with l'resldent Taft to-day.
William Marshall Bullltt Is one of
.the most striking and unique figures In
Kentucky politics. He is artlll 'n the
..thirties, and does not weigh more than
I 325 pounds, but Is described as a human
steam engine.
Friends say he car. say more words
tn & minute than any other man In
'Kentucky. He can do more different
things in a given upaco of time ti.
any other man who has developed In
Kentucky politics In recent years. He
goes -from morning until night, and If
ho ever tires he, n?v r shews it,
Han IHk Luw I'rnctlce.
Besides' having a largo corporation
.law practice and be'ng the ch'cf coun
' sei for such Institutions as the whis?
key combine, a number of banks and
tru6t companies, ho 1? the chairman i
of tho Louisville Board of 1'ubllc
Safety, Is easily the dominating force
Of Loulsvlllfc'e city adin'nistratlon, and
a big factor in Republican politics and
the recognized leader of the Taft
forces In Kentucky.
Ho Is tho mun who arose In a re?
cent Republican State convention In i
.J.oulEvlllo und said that tho men who :
killed William Gob^l should be hanged
fhlgher than Hainan.
He Is the man who was chief coun?
sel for tho fuslonists who ousted tho
Louisville Democrats from oltlcc after
a litigation covering a period of two
lytars. He Is the mun who stood be
; foro the Kentucky Coutt of Appeals,
composed of tlx Democrats and one
j Itepubllcan, and talked them into de?
livering a decision which may keep
I Louisville and Kentucky Republican
1 for ten or twenty years.
Tho court delivered the opinion Just
ab Mr. Bullltt wanted it delivered. j
Ot ousted the Democrats of Louisville j
and placed the appo?i;tlng power In
the hands of the Governor, who ap?
pointed men who, while known as |
Democrats, were men who had been Mr.
BUllltt'a closest friends und associates. ]
and with whom and over whom ho
exercised the greatest Influence.
He was one of Mayor Robert W.
Blngham's advisers, ur.-l was appointed
one of three men to spend (25,000 or,
S3?.6G0 in Inve?tlKatlng the affalra of
the Louisville Water Company.
Mr. Bullltt holds the Independent or
mugwump element of tho Democratic
party In hi? hand. Tho Republican or?
ganization In Louisville Is held In the
fiame place.
While the master of the situation
,hero and forcing a Republican State
convention to vote down or rather
tablo a resolution indorsing William
\j. Bradley for United Statea Senator,
he, although In the background, was
making a Democratic State admir.'stra
' tlon do his bidding.
Ho made his light on the law, but he
knew tho men and the channels to
? employ In ordor that all powerful
i politicians at Frankfort might fall
\ victims to a plan whereby they might
get revenge and occupy vantage1
j ground. Ills fight was a legitimate ^
j,onc, and one made above board and
. In tho open, so no one can complain
.jpf what Mr. Bullltt did.
' During the last cX'palgn he made
I practically all the t?pee<-hes for the
? Louisville Republicans, organized their1
tsnrds and precincts for them, dlc
' 'tated their Jpollcles ond platforms.
, and on election day visited every pre
' clnct In the district, and if anjf. elec?
tion officer was not doing what Mr.
i Bullltt thought he ought to do, he
i had that officer arrested.

CRUSHED BENEATH
RUNAWAY AUTO
Atlantic City. N. J., June 2%_Dale
Wll?ky, of 1C25 Nort> Eleventh Street.
Philadelphia, who has been visiting
here, stopped his automobile in front
of the City Hail yesterday to talk to
friends. He shut down his engine,
ami When he" was read? to go got out
of the car to crank It.
When he. spun the crank around, the
car, a gear still being in mesh, Jumped
forward, and Wllsky, to save himself
from being run over, grabbed the hood
and hung on for his life.
The car started down Atlantic Ave?
nue at about twenty miles an hour
and men and wora'n ran from Its path
k'-.CTT.r: that there was no one to guide
It. oiher fola In automobiles and wa
bans turned out of the way of the
runaway cat, but In ail the numbers
thut watched the car, horrified at the
position of Wllsky, there was none
with presence of mind to Jump aboaiu
tiie racing automobile and stop it.
Wlhiky, holding w'th all his strength
to the hood, was unable to climb upon
It or to work his way back to the
driving seat. The car swept along
until just below Tcntracks. where it
deflected from Its courte and headed
for tha window of a cigar store.
In its path was a horse and wagon
standing at the curb, and persons on
the sidewalk who Blood watching the
runaway cried out in wild alarm as
they saw that a collision was immi?
nent and that Wllsky would be- crush
between the, wagon <jii?J lii3 own
car unices something was done.
Wllsky heard the yells and turned
his head, so that he, too. caught sight
of the wagon. He seemed to realise
that to remain wheer ha was meant
almost certain death, and that his
only chance to escape was In dropping
and trusting that the wheels night
miss him.
As the awestruck crowd watched
Wllsky he decided on the chance and
dropped. The front wheels of the car
passed over Iiis body, and then the
car sprang forward and crashed Into
the wagon.
A dozen men rushed to Wllsky's
side and lifted him up end carried him
into a store. A chauffeur of a pass?
ing taxlcab cilmbed into Wllsky's car.
which, with power on, was plowing
through the wreck of the wagon, and
Stopped It.
Wllsky, senseless and bleeding, was
hurried to the hospital. There it was
found that he had four ribs broken,
and was suferlng from probable In?
ternal injuries as the result of the
accident. The physicians at the hos- j
pital believe, however, that ho will
recover.

In work when thero Is no provision
for paying them, for this, was pon?
dered over.

sensus of opinion at the White House
conference, first, that no branches of
tho government need suspend; second^
thta thero wll bo pay from future ap?
propriations for Monday's work, and.
third .that even should It be decided
that government clarks cannot b? paid
for Monday, no OjfAcer* Of tho govern?
