OHIO LEGISLATIVE CONTEST LIVELY

Columbus. Ohio, Jan. 3,--The mem
bers Of the Ohio legislature as well as
the candidates for executive positions
are all here today participating In the
contest previous to the caucuses TO-
morrow evening, when nominations are
to be made for the organization of the
legislature on Monday, But the wires
are still kept busy between the rival
leaders, Senators Hanna In Washington
and Foraker in Cincinnati, While both
senators have become directly involved
In the contest through direct interest
or their respective followers, II devel.
oped today that lines are not strictly
drawn between their friends. Many
members concur with Geo. 3. Cox OF
Cincinnati in stating that this fight Is,
not one for supremacy OF either Fora
ker or Hanna or Ohio, and that they
are on equally cordial relations with
both senators. Some of Hanna's clos
est friends are for Price and some OF
Foraker's for McKinnon for speaker for
personal, local or other than fractional
reasons.
The lines are mnch more distinctly
drawn between what are known as the
Cox men and the Daugherty men. Two
years ago Representative Harry NJ.
Daugherty was defeated for the guber-
material nomination by Gov, Nash. In
that contest Cox threw his whole
strength TO Nash as he Is now doing

BUTTE POLICE ROW.
IL Reaches a Climax and Six Officers

Butte, Mont, Jan. S.--Today a row
which has been brewing in police circles
in Butte came TO a climax and as re-
suit six officers viii be suspended when
they come ON duty at o'clock this
evening Chief Reynolds of the police
department has met with strenuous
opposition from his subordinates In the
department and frequent investigation
touching grating" charges has ended
without substantial results. The pa
trolmen who will be suspended tonight
have stated they would prefer counter
charges against Chief Reynolds, alleg-
ing incompetency in the management of
the affairs Of his Office.
The trouble between the chief and
members Of the force finds its source IN
the attempt to enforce the anti-gam-
bling law The county authorities and
the chief OF police have not worked in
harmony for months and in the trials
OF officers before the police committee
OF the council each accused the other Of
being In league with gamblers. Chief
Reynolds was appointed to the head OF
the department last spring, after serv-
Ing term as deputy sheriff OF this
county, He has the support OF the
mayor, but the city ordinance does not
permit the chief to discharge patrol
men perempttorily and insubordlnatlon
is rife The recent trouble will doubt
less lead TO a change in the city char.

Of the department. The matter will be

M0RTENSEN Is BUSY.
Going over His Accounts to Prove He
Could Have Had the $4,000,


Today Peter Mortensen the accused
murderer of James n. Hay, has been
busily engaged In porting over his ac-
counts. Early In the day yesterday he
asked for his time books and accounts
and late In the day they We're taken to
him by his attorney, Since he received
them he has done little else but go over
them carefully, lie still maintains he
is able to account for every dollar OF
The $500 which he claims he gave TO
Hay on the fatal night OF December lG.
He says he can prove where he got
every one Of the $40 gold pieces which
he declares he had in the cellar that
night Now he Is going over his ac-
counts supposedly for the purpose OF
furnishing that proof Can he provide
it? Can he prove he had the money
and show where, when and how he got
III He says he can.
The officers who claim to know all
about the case say the man is lying,
that he can not prove he had the
money, cannot prove he gave dollar
to young Hay. They declare his own
accounts which he now has, show be-
You'd a doubt that he did not have the
money, and that for weeks and months
he has been going behind In his ac-
counts, has been losing money and
was hard pressed by creditors.
Among Mortensen's visitors was his
sster-in-law, Mrs Henry Mortensen.
Mortensen had asked her to bring his
slippers from home and one or two
other articles of wearing apparel When
she showed w empty handed he asked
the reason and she told him that his
slippers, his best suit of clothes and
numerous other articles had been
stolen by curious persons who wanted
a souvenir, Mortensen said not word
at this Intelligence but 1t was quite
evident that he was angry.
After while he said. II am sorry
because have no money with which
10 get more
The man seems to be greatly relieved
At having his books He said some time
ago that the only thing he had to COM
plain Of was that the officers had taken
his books. Now that they1 have been
thoroughly examined tn" can do no
harm In his hands. He of the opin-
ion they will do him much good. The
officers are OF the opinion they will do
n great deal towards conylcting him OF

OF both and the local feature of the
contest Is the fact that Hanna and
Daugherty are for the same man for
