CONGRESS WILL NOT
MEET TILL NOVEMBER
President Decides to Turn Down
the Suggestion for an Oc-
tober Session.

OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Sept. 12.-After
mature consideration and consultation
in person and by mail with members of
both the senate and the house of rep
reSentatives President Roosevelt has
decided against the suggestion that
congress be called into extraordinary
session in October. The extraordinary
session, which he announced many
months ago would be held this fall,
will be called according to present
plans to meet on Nov. 9, which was the
date tentatively fixed some time ago.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
suggestion of an October session of
congress came from prominent sena-
tors who warmly advocated it's adop-
ton the proposition was not received
with favor by members of congress
generally. The idea of a session in Oc-
tober was opposed particularly because
1t would oblige senators and represent
atives to leave their states and dis
tricts in the midst of campaign of i'm
portance.
No definite agreement yet has been
reached as to the character of the
acted at the approaching session of
congress. Indeed, it is not certain that
an agreement can be reached between
the two branches of congress whereby
any special legislation can be enacted.
1t may be that a solution of the prob
lem. will be found before the converting
of the extraordinary session. but that is
by no means assured.

Special to The Globe.
BUFFALO, Mimi, Sept. 12.-Thomas
May Shot and instantly killed his uncle,
Martin May, at the town of Maysville,
Wright county, at little after o'clock
this morning. He used a shotgun.
Thomas lives half a mile from Martins
place. About 4 o'clock he left home and
went to his uncle's place, and waiting
until Martin went to the barn shot him,
the shot taking effect in the left breast
and killing him almost instantly.
Mrs. Martin May was in the house and
heard the shooting, but did not know
what 1T was. She went out to milk
shortly after. She met Thomas, who
told her that he had done away with
one slanderer this morning. Tom then
had the gun under his arm. Mrs May
went TO the stable and found her hus-
band lying between the horses and the
door on his face. She raised him, but
he was dead.
Tom came to Buffalo and surrendered
to the sheriff, saying he had shot Mar
tin with a shotgun, but did not know
whether he was dead or not, but hoped
he was not. AT the coroner's inquest
the jury returned a verdict that Mar
tin May came TO his death by being
shot by Thomas May. May is con-
fined at Buffalo. The examination will
take place next week.

Governor of FanG Is Charged
With Abduction.

KINGSTON, N. Y, Sept. 12.-Col.
Robert w. Barr, a West Point gradu-
ate, British governor of Fanti, on the
west coast of Africa, absent on sick
leave, a wealthy Western ranch and
mine owner and man who has dis
tinguished himself since he appeared
in Ulster county last spring, has dis
appeared, and the general belief is
that he is on his way to Europe with
seventeen year-old Minnie Storm,
whom he is charged with abducting.
The police are looking for Barr, but
they share the common belief that he
will never be taken unless it be in
Europe or Fanti.
Barr is said to have married his
beautiful companion. He left his
charming and accomplished wife, who
is occupying his farm at Ulster Park.
Considering the limited length of
time Col. Barr resided at Ulster. he
managed to distinguish himself to a
remarkable degree. He dropped off a
West Shore train at Ulster Park last
spring in search of farm, bought the
Van Keuren place, paying about $1G,
600 for it, named the place Bars
RANCH" and began to do strange
things.
Miss Storm is the seventeen-y year
old daughter of Michael Storm, of
Delaware avenue, a brickyard laborer.
After what is termed by neighbors as
a short courtship she was ostensibly
employed as a servant by the colonel.
After her disappearance at the same
time as the colonel, Mr.. Storm con-
sidered he was justified in swearing
out q warrant for abduction.
Col. Bars ranch is less than six
miles from the city. Here among the
family and neighbors Of Miss Storm
she was supposed to be the wife of
Barr, residing at his home in the
country. AT Ulster Park she was
known to the real Mrs Barr and the
neighbors as household servant, who
frequently visited her home in Kings
in the evening.
Col. Barr and Miss Storm disappear
ed from the Anderson boarding house
and were traced to New York to the
home of a relative of the girl. and, it
is said, were further traced on board
a steamer which sailed for Europe
Saturday.
The real Mrs. Barr is said to be very
wealthy and to have furnished the
capital for her husbands enterprises.
Both were liberal to an extreme. The
wife was formerly Miss Ehrte, of Az
bany.
Col. Barr claimed to be a West
Pointer loaned by the United States
government to Great Britain, and that

AUTOMOB|LIST IS
KILLED IN MIL WAUKEE
Frank Day Loses His Life While
Driving Record-HoIding
Machine.

MILWAUKEE,, Wis, Sept II. -
Frank Day, formerly of California, but
of late living in Detroit, was killed in
an automobileY accident at the state
fair grounds late this afternoon while
driving Barney Oldfield's record-break-
ing machine in tive-mile race against
time Day had covered about four
miles of the distance, when, upon reach
ing the head of the home stretch, the
powerful machine swerved, ran into the
fence and toppled over.

terrific knock on the back of the head
which rendered him unconscious, and
he lay on the track without moving a

The accident came so quick that no
one is able to explain its cause. The
theory of the machine owners is that
the track was in bad condition and
that the wheel struck post, throwing
Frank NJ. Day, the helpless chauffeur,
mangled and dying, to the ground.
Some of the spectators who went
over the ground carefully held the
theory that the right front tire became
loose as the machine rounded at the
curve, and that Day, in order to re-
lieve the pressure on it as much as pos
sible, steered as near the outside fence
as he could, hoping to get through
without an accident; but the tire came
off and the disabled wheel plowed a
furrow three inches deep for eight feet

occurred and both men were enveloped

before a hand could be raised to save
them. The ship at once caught fire. In
the excitement the sailors concerned in
the affair escaped. The ships company
was assembled and the master
failed to respond to his name. 1t is not

port has it that he was not on the ship
