Morris SHREDDER. the young colored man
who was shot in the back two weeks ago
yesterday I'm house at 1903 Glenn avenue
died yesterday afternoon at $3.50 o'clock, at
the City Hospital, of peritonitis, which de-
veIoped from the wound. Florida Phillips
and Benjamin Thompson. also colored, were
in the house at the time Stroder was shot
They Were arrested and charged with shoot
ing with intent to kill. Their trial was con-
tinued until Nov. Is and they were commit
ted TO Jail. The killing of SHREDDER is a
mystery, though the Phillips woman de-
elares she shot him accidentally. When
she was arrested she told the police she
had quarreled with Thompson, had shot at
him and had struck SHREDDER. Stroder said
he had shot himself accidentally while
hunting.
Last night the Phillips woman was ques-
toned. She was asked what story she
wanted 10 tell. now that SHREDDER was dead
She denied that she had ever told more
than one story. Il had a revolver in my

THE VOTE FOR CONGRESS
OFFICIAL RETURNS COMPLETE on
FOUR DISTRICTS.
Overstreet's Plurality Acknowledgement
way Carries the First Dis
trict by 1,O46.

All but eleven of the county canvassing
boards have reported their congressional
vote to the secretary of state. but the be-
lated counties are sprinkled through the
different congressional districts so that it is
still impossible TO quote the official vote for
more than four districts In the First dis
trict Henenways plurality over Duncan,
the Democratic candidate, is 1896 Watson,
in the Sixth, beat the Democratic candidate
by 2.204 votes; Overstreet's plurality over
Bailey in this district is 2,599; while Robin
son, in the Twelfth district, has 1,440 more
votes than Stemen, his Republican OPP
ponent. Several of the county officials sent
in their county ticket, but ignored the state
vote altogether. This was doubtless due to
an eagerness to receive the commissions for
the county officials, in which local interest
in the successful county candidates bred
forgetfulness of state interests. In these
cases it is probable that a wait of several
days will follow before a demand can be
sent by the secretary of state and an answer
received from the county canvassing boards.
The counties heard from so far on the con-
gressional results registered the following
vote.

BUSINESS MAN AS A MENTOR.
II. j. HudsOn's Address Before the
Progress Club.

Thomas ]. Hudson addressed the Progress
club yesterday afternoon on the Business
Man as az Mentor" making an application
of that topic to politics. Business men, he
said. pride themselves on their conservatism
and their sagacity. Conservatism is the
child Of ignorance. Business men remain
ignorant of many things with which they
should be familiar, because of the details
of their business, the lack OF time and the
necessity for bending their efforts in the
commercial and money-getting channels
rather than in the philosophic or literary
directions. Hence they have been Of no use
in the worlds progress, which has been due
to the theorist. the student and the dreamer.
Continuing this line OF argument, the
speaker took up many lines of development
in the worlds history. In the physical field
the cotton gin was developed by Whitney.

THE PENALTY OF DETECTION.
Claimed TagGart Is "PeFsecuting' a
SOuth-Sidc saloon Keeper.

Some of the Independent Democrats of the
Third precinct of the Ninth ward, where
the Democratic ticket received such a
scorching on election day, are registering a
protest about the way the Taggart admins
tration has retaliated on the voters for their
detection. They claim that Superintendent
of Police Quigey, under advice from the
city administration. has systematically
prosecuted them since it became known that
the Taggart administration has lost it's grip
oil the precinct organization. According to
them 'Murt' O'Connell, saloon keeper at
1915 East Bates street, was always a strong
ward worker for the Democrats in times
past, but at this election decided to support
the Republican ticket because of the treat
ment accorded him by the Taggart crowd
1t is claimed that O'ConnelPs influence
made the large Republican gains in this pre-
clnct possible and that the Taggart crowd
has vowed not to forget IL.
AS a first step toward retaliation O'Con-
EMIL place was raided Saturday night and
the proprietor placed under arrest for haV-
ing MS place open after hours. Not content
with that, the men allege, when the Lafay
cite Club was holding meeting next door
TO the O'Connell saloon last night and try
ing TO elect a secretary, Patrolman Tim"
MackasSey burst into the room and ordered
the men to dispense. The men, while not
attempting to defend OConnell for violating
the law in keeping open after hours, say
the police have determined to break up the
saloon and the political organization which
deserted the party at the last election and
that Patrolman Mackassey said so In so
many words when he broke up the meeting
last night The men say that so long as the
police close up all the saloons after hours
there will be no complaint, but that instead
of doing so the Taggart policemen ignore
all the others and try in every way possible
to make O'Connell remember that "he
downed the party on election day."

CONFERENCE OF CHARITIES.
Annual Session to Begin Here To-
Morrow.

The seventh annual conference OF societies
and individuals interested in the problems
of charities and correction in this State will
be held in this city for three days beginning
tomorrow. The meeting will not in any
sense be confined to officials of public in
stitutions of any character, but 1t is desired
to interest all humanitarians and students
of sociology in the movement. The problem
of what to do with the deserving poor, the
vagabond and the criminal of tender years
will be discussed from all sIdes and it is
hoped some new and useful ideas will be
advanced at the conference along those
lines. There is every indication that there
will be a strong cooperation by the col
leges of the State, as all but one nave slSHl-

In conclusion, Mr.. Hudson argued that it
was unwise for men who believed in adj
Vancement and progress in politics to allow
themselves to be trammeled by the ideas Of
the conservative business men, who are
doctrines until there appears to be a profit
of some sort in them.
