HOW JOE DOYLE LOST
FIGHT OF 1SoS BROUGHT UP
AGAINST HIM.
He OVER PLAYED HIS HAND.
ZOE MANLEY's MEMORY SERVED
POSTMASTER ILL.

The Contesting Delegation Sent Up
nv the DOyles in 1905 to the Ma
tionaI Convention Recalled Very
Much to the Disadvantage of the
Present POstmaster-This Contest
seems to Have Left n Bad Taste in
the Mouths of Messrs. Hanna and
PAYNE, Who Promptly Dropped Mr..
Doyle When ManIey Recalled 1t.
Washington. May 4.-Harry BUNS
nomination as postmaster at Savan-
nah has been made out and may be
sent to the Senate tomorrow. Joe
Doyle staked his chances on his politi-
cal pull and lost. For days he appeared
to have a slight prospect of winning,
but he over-played his hand.
Here is the inside story of his fail
ure: Personally, the President was
favorably disposed to Blum, as before
stated in these dispatches. From a
purely political standpoint. Postmaster
General Payne and Senator Hanna adj
yised the appointment of Doyle. Be
fore final action was reached, Joe Man
lev, national committeeman from
Maine, was drawn into the contest. His
political memory was better than that
of Payne or Hanna, and he reminded
them that Doyle was at the head of
ccntesting delegation from Savannah,
which appeared at Philadelphia two
years ago, in opposition to the dele
gates selected by the regular Republi
can organization. Postmaster General
Payne was reminded that it was he
who, as a member of the National
Committee, Investigated the claim of
the Doyle delegation and found them
so weak that he fathered a resolution
condemnng the introduction of such
groundless contests. On that occasion
it was shown that the Doyle delegation,
after being beaten at the regular con-
vention, hired another hall, packed the
convention and sent a Doyle delega-
ton to the National Convention at
Philadelphia. At the instance of Mr..
Payne the National Committee turned
the Doyle delegation down, and the
convention sustained their action.
There is also a suspicion that Doyle
was not enthusiastic over the Roose-
Welt vice presidential movement. All
of these circumstances were revived
here Within the past forty-eight hours
TO the satisfaction of the President and
the Postmaster General, and the re-
sui is that Doyle goes down to de-
feat, branded as being discredited by
the National Convention four years
ago. When these circumstances were
brought back to Mr.. Payne, now Post
master General, it did not take him
long to reverse his former suggestion
TO President Roosevelt that the reap
polntment of Doyle might be good poll
ties Those who are directly interested
in President Roosevelt political future
are of the opinion that Blun's appoint
ment VIII be of greater benefit to the
present administration than the reap
polntment of Doyle, who is suspected
of having a leaning towards Senator
Hanna.

AN INSANE BURGLAR.
Smashed Into JeweIry store on
Busy Street.

Columbia, S. c.. May 4.-Last night
c. NJ. Babb. native of Germany,
about so years of age. a jeweler by
trade, broke into w. E. Avery's jewelry
store in the heart of the business Sec
ton. Babbs mind was unbalanced.
He sometime ago worked in Averys
store but recently has been conduct
ing a small business of his own on
lower Main street.
About II o'clock when the street was
crowded with Saturday night shoppers
and the stores on both sides of Averys
were open and filled with people, Babb
walked up to the front door and
smashed in one of the plate glass pan
els with an ak. He then went in
and was seen by the crowd gathered
at the door to be trying to work the
combination of the safe. Babb. see
ing the crowd, started towards the door
holding his ak in a menacing position.
Just at this time Police officer Scott
reached the store and Babb turned
back as if to escape through the rear.
Scott was now joined by officer Latti-
more. Neither of them knew who the
burglar was and Scott thinking he
would escape ran around through an
alleyway, jumped over fences and gain
ed the back of the premises reaching
there just as Bahb was getting out of
the window still holding his ak above
his head. The officer fired twice and
the burglar went back, dropping his

and as Babb came walking down the
store arrested him. He had cut his
finger on the glass but there was no
other evidence of his being wounded.
Babb walked with the officers to the
patrol box and was from there driven
to the station house.
While being interrogated as to his
conduct Babb complained of gripping
pains in his stomach and an inVestiga-
ton showed that he had received 49,
cal1bre bullet in the center of his abb
domen, just below the waistband
Physicians were summoned, but it was
soon ascertained that the unfortunate
man was mortally wounded
His wife was notified by the police
but sent word that she could not go to
the hospital. Persons who have known
the man intimately for sometime say
that he should have been in the in
sane asylum.
Babb died as the hospital to-day
The Columbia Germans took the mat
ter in hand. The found that Mrs Babb
was also insane. She had been shut
up in room in her house for days.
Conditions were fearful and she
seemed starving. Persons who were
in noticed bumps on the carpet They
investigated and found a quantity of
small pieces of jewelry and precious
stones stuck under the carpet
1t is said the cause of Babb's in
sanity was that he had recently lost a
fortune. lie deserted from the Ger

Recently relative left him sac 900 in

WilheImina's Successor.
London, May 4.-The tardy official
admission of the real nature of the
illness of the Queen of Holland, which
the Associated Press was able to an
nounce April II from Amsterdam, may
be regarded as an indication of very
grave crisis in Her Majesty's condition,
and coming so suddenly upon the bulle-
tins announcing her imminent recov-
cry, it will cause a shock throughout
Europe.
Apart from the difficulties surround
ing the question of the succession to
the throne of Holland, the death of
queen Wilhelmina, if this should I'M
happily occur, would tend to convulse
the continent politically In Germany
especially it is a matter of the deepest
import. The German press claims that
Prince Albrecht of Hohenzollen, the
acting regent of Brunswick, is among
the nearest in the Dutch succession,
and in all the European capitals ner-
vous apprehension exists that the alb
sence of a direct heir to the Dutch
throne might precipitate a struggle for
the possession of Holland, which, in
Berlin, is regarded as Germanys nat
