In an open letter yesterday to the!
Citizens Association, which lias in?

missioner Knnton G. Williams indi?
cates that ho will bo outside that ticket

commends Graham B, ttobson for ills
character and his record, and especi?
ally recalls the most valuable ser?
vices rendered to the city by Mr.
Hobson ?) piittlhg a stop to graft,
corruption and mismanagement at the
city lloiin .
Nql know ing the scope of the In
vestigntlon which the Citizens' Assoccl
ation says it conducted into then-cords
of ti.. candidates, Dr. Wlil'ams feels
sure It did hot extend to the records
of the City Council. Had it done so,
Iii Ilia .lew. the association would
never have made the mistake Of leav?
ing Mr. ilobson's name oft the Bat.
considering his record of actual s.-r
vi-e to the City of Blchmond.
It is recalled that Dr. Williams had
a part In the cleaning up of the City
Home, and possesses lirsl hand infor?
mation on the subject. It's letter is
as follows:
Ur. \\ llllumx'fl l etter.
KLhmond, September 3, 1912.
To the Citizens' Association:
Ueiitlerru-rij?Yo?t letter requesting
me to support the nominees of your
association for the Administrative
Heard Is duly received.
1 am fully in accord with you In
considering that the matter of select^
Ing live administrators is one of the
greatest Importance, and thut inch
voter should be satisfied that his se?
lection resis on solid ground.
You hace undertaken to make this
selection tor those who cannot, or will
not, make U for themselves.
"(iruve Mistake.**
I do not know what was the scope
of your investigation of the records
oi the seventeen candidates, but l bin
satisfied tl.at it could not have ex?
tended to the Council records, or you
would not have made the grave mis?
take of leaving off of your list a aiari
who has demonstrated by actual s<--r
servlce to the city that he possesses
those qualities that should bo most
desired in members of the board;
qualities which some of your nomi?
nees have failed to exhibit while tbey
have had an equal or bette: oppor?
tunity.
if you will refer to tile records of
the Committee on Belief of the I'oor
ni 1 the daily press for iSOij and IW1-,
you "111 llhd that Graham B. Hobson
was chiefly instrumental In bringing
about itii Investigation of the City
Home. He made :hu charge, notwith?
standing the threats and the opposi?

supplies were being tampered with,
and he proved conclusively that bids
had been tampered with, although
sufllctent legal evidence was not ob?
tained to show who the guilty party.

chatmerl the bids before submission
10 lite Council committee.
Incompcteney und Corruption.
Among the Undings of the investiga?
tion conducted by Urn ham B, Hobson
was the wide open drug department,
with no system of records to show
wiio ordered the supplies or whether
they came as ordered or what dispo?
sition was made of tho supplies re?
ceived, It was also rotlnd that tor
ty-itve cuds oi wood disappeared; front
the Institution, with no record i" show
what became' ?I <h.::!. U could only
I..- charged to "shrinkage or stcalag? ."
Those and other findings of the in?
vestigation were the record of Incom?
petence and corruption. After ex?
posing these conditions, ho applied
himself to the reorganization of the
institution along efficient and econo?
mical lines.
Another service rendered the city by
Graham B Hobson was that of
breaking, for n time at lenst, the en?
tertainment of the Council commit
tei - by lo ads of city departments, It
was CliStOihary for some of the de?
partment heads to Invite the com?
mittee to partake of an elaborate din

This blind.,1, the committee to Its
proper sense of duty, and the Inspec?

son Introduced an ordinance to pre?
vent this. Although It did not pass.
It Had li>e effect of calling public at?

While Mr. Hobson has tc.i in these

MEETING HELD IN FULTON

Classing Richmond as - j
.$3,000,000 Corporation.
President William T. Reed, of the
Citizens' Association, was quoted last1;
night at the meeting of tl?- Fulton
Civic Improvement Association by
Alderman a. w. Bennett as saying
tiiai tho members of the association
have "laid down on the Job and left
iiini with the bag to hold.'; Mr. Ben?
nett repeated this as Mr. Reed's lan?
guage.
Opposition t" tli-? citizens' ticket was
cVeri more prominent In the meeting
of last night, which was held in the
auditorium of Nicholson School. that)
it hua been elsewhere In the campaign,
livery criticism of the association was
greeted with cheers, A good-sized
crowd was in attendance. John P..
m01 ton presided.

Scnatoi E C. Folkes devoted his ro- I
marks to a statement made for publl- j
cation by tho Citizens' Association to 1
the effect that Richmond is "n 13.000,
000 corporation." The astounding part
of it. hind .Senator Koikes, Is thai the
newspapers have circulated what ho
termed tl?e biggest knock this city has
ever had, Richmond's real esiatfc is
assessed at (Svt,.,000 and personalty j
at ?6U .,000. In addition, he pointed
'?:t. the Auditor is suing the elty for i
taxes <.n $10,000.. worth of city prop-;
torty. not including parks, schoolhousos j
and such other institutions'.
"No business man who belongs to
the Citizens' Association would think!
of knocking his own business In this '
way." asserted Senator Folkoi. "The
First National Unnk calls itself at

a mistake was made by it, somebody I
would be likely to go to jail. Vet the

What The; Received,
Charles K. Richards said all he ever'
pot for his service to the city was]
100 car tickets a month. Captain I
Charles F. Taylor said he had received I
nothing nt nil Ho ontenllcd that the!
Administrative Board was but an cn- j
largemcnt ,.f the Firo Hoard.
Henry P. Beck was f?r the improve?
ment of Lester Street. So was Graham
B. II d.s,,n. who said he had worked
for the proposition i? nie Council.
William H. SCImrm rmann said the
board, unlike council committees,
would finish up things It started.
Georgo B. Davis said the young inch
who wire )i,s h.arers will live to seel
the day when ther,- will be a proposi?
tion to annex Ashland. The Citizens'
Association, lit fcald. with all Its wis?
dom, had put four of Its five candi?
dates In one ward, and he said the
eastern section should have justice.
Nor was the possession of money, ho
thought, the best qualification of a!
candidate. Wood row Wilson had not 1
long ago applied for a pension from
tho 'arneglc Foundation.
Some 1 in It Snort.
F.dgar II. Fcrgtisson made his usual!
pi at,lying one-minute speech. George
Pun! was also fairly brief, while .lohn \
W. Moore cut his remarks to a crisp I
minimum'. Marx Glinst repeated his
unwillingness to make promises In ad-i
vanee of facing a situation; William j
P. knotvl.es said he had been told if
all city ilephrtmonts were run ns well |
as the pas works, there would he no
need tor an Administrative Hoard.
a W. Bennett was asked by a man
In the crowd; "What about tho Rich?
mond nnd llenrico franchlso?" He
merely replied that nil h's votes ?/ere
on record, and he was willing to stand
on them.
Graham R Hobson thought all
hoards should be under one head, nnd
predicted that this would certainly
come, or else that the Administrative
Board would be In time abolished.
John Hlrachberg said ho was the
father of the proposition to put all de?
partments tinder the Administrative
Board. I
l"or further particulars about him. j
).e referred I,Is hearers to the news?
papers. "They u II of my past.'' he said,
?and you pay money every day to get
it. If you would conic to me. 1 would
give ii to you without charge." He
jig linst a candidate that he Is young,
dIJ not think it was an argument
so that he has brains.
Mr. Davis presented a resolution of
regret at the death of John F. Don
Leavy. and pledging the candidates for
the board la attend the funeral in a
body. It wan unanimously adopted by

PREFER CHARGES
Father of Boy Struck by Officer
Jennings Will Take Matter
to Police Board.
As a result of evidence which was
only partially revealed lrj Police
Court yesterday. Alderman Barton H.
<!rundy will prefer charges agninst
Patrolman R. W. Jcnnlnss, who i?
charged with .assaulting Caiber 11
Gruhdy, his son, In Broad Street, near
the Memorial Hospital, eatlv vest, r
day morning. Voung Qruhdy was ar?
rested by Ottlcer Jennings while Wait?
ing for a street car and for refusing
to move when ordered to do so. The:.,
wer..- bruises on hla bead, It being
alleged that he was struck by Jen
Inge, who used his list and club, af?
ter making the arrest, and while,
holding the prisoner at a patrol box.
Jennings claimed that tirundy resisted
arrest, dandy's statement being that
policeman continue-: to heat him
until he cried ?'enough"
There were few people In the street I
at the time, nnd it is claimed that
Jennlhga acted without discretion
when ordering Qrundy and his com?
panion. James I), l'atton, Jr, to move
on. Justice Crutchfleld did not go
thoroughly Into the case. When the I
.-. it :r.- of the charge was disclosed, he
announced that the hearing would be
continued until Saturday, at which
time otto-r witnesses wilt testify. It I
was stated last night that Jennings !
would produce witnesses who wo lid I
testify that his conduct was not i .
jeel to criticism. The officer Is said '?
to li.iv? a good record with the de?
partment.
From all accounts Jennings had \,*< r. j
pursuing a prisoner who had escaped,
and nt whom he fired three tithes,'
when Grundy and Patton approached.
They stated that the prisoner dropped
his hat and Wat Jennings jumped upon
It and then kick..! it Into the street
Jennlngs's statement is that he unln- |
tentlbnally stepped upon the hat nnd |
then shoved It aside. At this point
Grundy and Patton declare they oft? ri i |
their assistance, but the otllc.-r mnln-i
tains that they began to "Josh' him
for permitting the prisoner to escape, j
He ordered Grundy to move find when
he refused, Jennings s'< iri.-d him by the]
i-ollar. drngged him across the street.
to a patrol r.ox. While at the patrol
box strong arm methods wer- used,
and Grundy's head still bore evidence
of blows when he wt nt to court yi sti r
day. I'af.on nttempted to intervene
but he was threaten..! with arrest un?
less, lie moved away.
Gruhdy alleges that Jennings said
wliile beating him. If you don't holier
enough I'll kill you." He hollered,
he said, because the officer was holding
him by the right hand as the blows
were Inflicted.
Alderman Grundy Investigated the i
case and he was bitter last night in
denouncing the act of the policeman.
He will fight the matter it: Police
Court and will prefer chnrges before
the Police Board. Voung Grundy says
that he has heard from a number of
volunteer witnesses who will cheer?
fully testify in his behalf on Saturday.
The man who escaped was wanted
.by the officer for addressing Insulting
remarks to him. His Identity Is known
to the police nnd it is probable that a
warrant will be sworn, out tor his ar?
rest.
BIG CROWD AT BANK
New First National Opened on Time tn II?

Promptly at the regular hour yesterday
morning the new First National Hank open?

Fust Main Street, and throughout the day
did mich a business ns no "new'" bank ever
transacted In this city. Early In the morn?
ing the lines began forming before the pay?
ing and receiving teller?, and the march
before the window.* was continued until the
closing hoflrs. It seemed that nearly every
patron of the consolidated bank was anxious
to make a deposit or cash a check on the
opening day. The reorganization l-.nrt been
so carefully planned thnt there was no mor,i
delay or confusion than there would have
been ha,l the task of moving taker, a week
H stead of one day. Everybody got waited
..n promptly and everybody seemed pleased.
Officers of the bank were the recipients of
many congratulations not only from Rich?
mond people, but from corn spending banks
In all part? of the country. Many of them
sent wreaths and baskets of flowers, which
were arranged In the lobby. Unfortunately,
the officials of the bonk wero loo busy to
keep any count of the number of people
who passed through the doors for one pur?
pose or another, nnd the actual attendance
cannot be ascertained. One of the officers
said, however, that the crowd was probably
the largest ewer served In a single day. And
thi business; it was big business, he said,
though at that time he knew no more of
Its magnitude than of the number of people
