Studying the town caucus returns to
discover who will win the United
States Senatorship this fall is a very
amusing and harmless diversion at
present, but it really amounts to very
little. 1t is next to impossible to get
any line on the result at this stage.
There are too many breakers ahead.

sibility for the death of Robert Stafford

ford was the victim of wounds said tc
have been inflicted by his half brother
Boyd Wallace. late Tuesday night. He
died at the Homeopathic Hospital yester-
day morning. An autopsy will be per-
formed on the remains prior TO the inquest
to be held at the morgue, where the body
now lies.
Directly after the trouble which oc-
Cured in the rear of his home, 607 n

the hospital. where an operation was per-
formed upon him. There were two wounds.
both of dangerous nature, one penetrat-
ing the stomach and the other under the
left arm. extending around toward the
back. The former is said to have caused
death.
From what the police have been able to
learn Of the trouble. jealousy brought about
the fight. Harriet Johnson, young coll
ored woman, caused the discord. Police
man Trumbo took Wallace into custody
shortly after the fatal ARRAY, and he is
lodged at the Second precinct station to
await action by the coroner's jury. He
