action of the late Republican State

A SUICIDAL EFFORT
S. M. Burbank a Relation
of Owner of the Twin
City Sentinel.
(By the Associated Press.)

New York, June 14.-Samuel M.
Burbank of Arizona. a retired mer-
chant, attempted to kill himself to-
day by cutting his throat in law
office He is now a prisoner in a
hospital charged with attempted sui
eide. His wound is slight.
Samuel M Burbank is 55 years old
and brother of Caleb A. Burbank, the
residuary legatee of the late Ambrose
Bracket Burbank, millionaire, who
died on January II last and for sew
eral months up to the time of his
death was nursed by Samuel M. Burr
bank.
Mr.. Burbank is from Minnehaha,
Ariz. There was pending in the Sur
rogates court today an order to show
cause why Caleb A. Burbank shoulG
not produce an alleged second will
that would not have made him the
residuary legatee nor have given
Samuel NJ. Burbank $4,000. Counsel
for the contestants had asked Wheth-
er Samuel M. Burbank, as the con-
stant companion of the testator,
might know something about later
will. Whether there had ever reached
the ears of Samuel M. Burbank and
had an effect on his attempt to take
his life today, or whether the attempt
was made solely because his mind
was temporarily unbalanced as a re-
suit of the long seige of nursing his
uncle, is not known.
The disclosures in the affidavits on
file indicate very spirited contest on
the part of the various nieces and
nephews of the aged capitalist, who
in the will offered for probate be-
queathed the bulk of his estate to his
nephew, Caleb A. Burbank, a prac-
tising lawyer in this city. The es-
tate has been estimated at from ST.
coo, 900 to $2,000,000 and among sew
eral minor bequests was one of $685.
00V to William F. Burbank a San
Francisco banker, who refused to take
any part in the litigation over the
will. William r. Burbank married
the daughter of a California million
aire some years ago and besides his
California interests is proprietor Of
the Twin City Daily Sentinel of Win
Ston-Salem, n. G. His estimate Of
the estate is said TO be $2,000,O0O.

brothers were in Gasiness together in

Washington, d. c., June 14.-Al-
though the Attorney General refuses
either to deny or affirm the statement,
it is learned from high source that
it is his intention to retire from the

as soon as his appointment as a
United States Senator from the State
of Pennsylvania is received from Gov
ernor Pennypacker. He will be sue
ceeded by Mr.. Moody, the present Sec
retary of the Navy.
1t is said that after a conference
with the President Attorney General
Knox concluded that his action in re-
firing at once from the Department
of Justice would be in accordance with
the spirit of the Constitution, which
provides that each State shall have
two Senators and empowers the Gov
ernor to appoint in case of vacancy.

We're Going to Demand a Business
Rather Than Political Admins

One of the Republican
Leaders.
(By FRED l.. MERRITT.)

Washington, ID. c., June IA
North Carolina Republican who is TAX
ing an active part in political affairs
just now, said today, the affairs OF the
Atlantic & North Carolina Railroad
would figure quite largely in the State
campaign this year. In fact it will be
the principal issue, if the Republicans
have their way. He said:
1--WE are going to make our fight on
the line of a demand for more eco
administration of State affairs.
Particularly we are going to demand
a business rather than a political ad-
ministration of the Atlantic & North
Carolina railroad as long as the State
owns and controls it. Instead of run
ming it to make places for favorites
and pay off political debts. we shall
demand that it be run to make money
and pay to the State and other stock
holders the dividends that it would be
made to pay if it were in private
hands.
also we are going to attack the
Democrats for creating offices, increas-
ing salaries and defending at the eX-
pense of the public treasury, men who
have been indicted for violation of the
election law
''In other words, we have nominat-
ed a business man for Governor and
we are going to make our fight on
demand for a business administration
of State affairs
Collector Duncan has been here
again this week on business with the
revenue department. His business re-
lated particularly to investigation now
in progress in regard to the admins
tration of the revenue laws in his dis
trict.
Mr.. Duncan stated to friends while
here that so far as he knew there was
no candidate in the Eastern part of
the State for Republican National COM
mitteman except Judge Robinson, who
naturally wishes to be reelected. 1t
is understood that the right of the
East to name the committeeman is
not questioned, but Spencer Blackburn
has announced to Postmaster Meekins
of Elizabeth City, and perhaps others,
that he would like to have the place.
SO far as can be ascertained here,
Judge Robinson will be reelected,
nc twithstanding the hullabaloo that
was kicked up against him because of
his refusal to attend banquet at
which negroes were guests. Judge
Robinson left here yesterday for Chi
cago.
1t is expected that Chairman Rol-
Inns will be elected chairman of the
Tar Heel delegation to Chicago. also
member of the committee on platform
from North Carolina. The delegation
will leave Raleigh Saturday morning
in a body. They have written to Sec
retary Dover to secure headquarters
for them. and it is supposed he has
done so. but it is not yet known here
where they will be.

ell Clayton, the United States Ambas-
sador to Mexico, today visited the
White House and the State Depart
ment and discussed the political sit

that his presence here will mark the
last of Mr.. Clayton's incumbency as
ambassador to Mexico. He has lived
in Mexico since 1896 and has frequent
ly expressed a desire to retire from his
office.
1t is said that he would have re-
signed a year ago but for an attack in
the United States Senate by champions
of some American claimants who had
gotten into trouble with the Mexican
government. Now that these issues
have disappeared the way is open for
the REIMBURSEMENT of his duties as am
bassador in the near future. Several
applications strongly endorsed have
been filed at the White House for the
Mexican ambassadorship. Mr.. Clayton
will return to Mexico soon after
