A Surplus Of Girls

There are In Roanoke $50 more
women than men, and still the mat
rimonial market Is dull. Roanoke
needs some preachers who will de.
clare war on single blessedness and
promote matrimony. If there was
a scarcity of women and times were
hard there would be some excuse
for this condition of affairs, but
times are good, and no city In the
state has a prettier lot of marriage
able girls than Roanoke. Still,
Lynchburg Is worse IF The Hill
City has 2,So6 more women than
men, and that is some cancellation.

MAY HAVE A NEW
JUDICIAL DISTRICT.
Tillman Gets Action for 1t - War
Claim Provided For.

BY R. NJ. Larner.
Washington, March 2.-Senator Till
man secured favorable action on his
bill to provide for a district judge for
the western district of South Carolina.
A similar bill was introduced in the
House some time. ago, and pressed
for consideration by Representatives
Johnson and Findlay. There was OPP
position to the bill from various
sources in South Carolina, owing to
the uncertainty as to who was to be
appointed in case the bill became law.
The situation became so complicated
that the friends of the bill became
discouraged and it was practically
abandoned. 1t is understood that
should the bill become a law, the
President would appoint Representa-
tive Elliott to the judgeship. 1t is now
up to Col. Elliott and his friends in
the House to get favorable action on
the bill there.
Senator Tillman also secured provi-
sion in the general deficiency bill to
pay South Cardinals Revolutionary
War claims which amount to some
thing over 100000. This claim has been
pressed by Senator Tillman persistent
ly for the past four years, and assur-
ances have been given that the House
conferees will accept the Senate
amendment, thus disposing of this long
pending struggle of South Carolina.
The Crum nomination is now on the
Senate calendar, and several ineffect-
ual attempts have been made by Re-
publicans to call it up for considera-
ton. Either Senator Tillman or Sena-
tor Clay has always been on hand to
suggest that the case go over, and
over it has gone.

NO LIGHT ON THE CASE.
stiu BaHled by the Bur-
dick Murder.

Buffalo, N Y, March Mrs. Bur-
dick, wife of E. T. Burdick, who was
murdered at his home here last Thurs
day night. and Mrs. Hull her mother,
were examined at considerable length
early to-day.
Mrs. Hull said she knew nothing of
what had happened until she was
called by the domestic in the morning.
She heard no sounds in the night,
heard nothing of any voice whatever,
and awoke in the morning ignorant of
any tragedy in the house. She denied
positively that her relations with Mr..
Burdick were unfriendly.
District Attorney Coatsworth said:
I'VE examined Mrs. Hull and Mrs.
Burdick for the purpose of completing
the examination of all those present in
the house on the night the murder
occurred, and to ascertain from Mrs.
Burdick, if possible, who, in her judg-
ment, might have been actuated to
commit such a crime
1 Mr.. Cusack said he was still of the
opinion that the murderer is a woman.
Another unknown woman figured in
the inquiry to-day. She was we'll dress
ed and apparently a woman of refine
ment. 1t was stated on good authority
that the woman had no connection
with the case. She was one of the
women intimately acquainted with the
Burdick family whom the authorities
hoped might be able to tell something
that would assist them.
Among the persons summoned to the
district attorneys office during the
day were Hickman Delahunt, who
carried an unknown man to the vicin-
ity of the Burdick home on the night
of the murder, and Rev. l.. M. Pow
er, pastor of the First Universalist
Church, where the Burdick family
were regular attendants.
While an arrest in the case at the
present time appears to be out of the
question. the authorities have learned
some things that have set them upon
course that may result in something
final
A bottle containing some of the
liquor that had formed part of the
refreshments served during the mid
night luncheon in Burdick's den was
taken into the district attorneys of
fee to-day. The bottle has never been
found. The significance of it's disap-
pearance became known tonight. 1t
again brings a woman into the case.
On the afternoon before the murder
this woman called up Mr.. Burdlck s
office and asked if he was in He was
and after a brief conversation with
her, Burdick left the office.
From the office he went to a well
known liquor store and bought the
bottle of cocktails. The bottle found
in the den after the murder contained
the same brand of cocktails purchased
by Burdick. The bottle was not Ahe
one carried home by Burdick. What
became Of the larger bottle? The po-
lice profess to believe that correct
answer to this question will lead to an
arrest.
1t is known that three women are
now under suspicion. The number
may be reduced to two tomorrow.

TILLMAN COMBATS
R00SEVELT'S STATEMENTS.
South Carolina Senator Tells How
Mckinley Did.


Washington, March 2.-The latest de-
c!aration from President Roosevelt
concerning his attitude toward South
eln appointments has called forth con-
siderable criticism from Southern
members of the Senate and House. A
Characteristic statement is that of
Senator Tillman, who in an interview,
ne gave this evening, said:
There are some facts concerning the
attitude of the present administration
IN this matter of Southern appoint
ments as compared with the Mckinley
administration which are not brought
out by that letter. Mr.. Roosevelt has
departed absolutely and entirely from
thc later policy of the martyred Nc
kinley.
President Mckinley at the begin
lllng of his first term followed the GUS
lcmary rule of his Republican prede-
cessors in regard to Southern patron
age. This was largely controlled by the
chairman of the National Committee.

the Southern people were as loyal and
patriotic as any other citizens of the
republic and after President Mckinley
nad visited the South and captured
u, me hearts of our people by his broad

change in his policy.
1 think that an examination will
snow that during the balance of his
leim few, if any, colored, men were
appointed TO Office in the South. AS 1
recall it, President Mckinley went to
Iuskegee, and in his speech there at
