WILD RUMOR ABBOTT

GOV. JEFF DAVIS
A rather startling inquiry came from
one of the interior counties Yesterday
morning, says the Little Rcck Gazette.
Information was wanted as to whether
the rumor was true that Gov. Davis
had been poisoned. Where the report
started csuld not be learned but it
spread with much rapidity. 1t was
without the slightest foundation in
fact
Gov. Davis spent most of the day
yesterday receiving callers from over
the state. Numbers of them came
from different sections to consult with
the governor in regard to the political
outlook. He left his office at 5 O'Clock
in the afternoon fer his home, and
apparently was never in better health.
Beyond slight hoarseness, the govern.
or, in fact, exhibits no sign that the
arduous campaign through which he
has passed had any bad effect upon his
health

Of Mrs. Joe White at Wilmot, and Hus-
band Suspected.

Mrs. Joe White living with her
husband on a farm about four miles
from Wilmot, was shot and instantly
killed Tuesday night about 9 o'clock
under mysterious circumstance. MIS-
White was in the room with her fus-
band, who was playing with a IS
Colts revolver White was firing off
the revolver at the ceiling and walls,
but says he tt1d not fire the shot
that killed his wife and alleges tAat
1t came from the outside. Mr.. Adams
and his wife and little child Wera
in the room just before the sho ing
but ran out when White began MS
reckless gun play and did not see the
shot that killed Mrs. White. Nc COT
oner's inquest was held this after
noon.
Joe White, the husband of the nlur
uSl Gu NOuIul4, Sdt , llldl llC was Ill lIlc
room and was firing IF the pistol to
have some fun but alleges that he did
not shoot at his wife or near her. He
thinks the bullet that killed her came
from the outside.
Mr.. Adams and his wife were in the
room just before Mrs White was kill
ed. They say that White was toying
with the pistol and began shooting at
the ceiling and walls. They cried to
him tc' desist, and when he kept on
shooting they ran out of the room.
Just as they reached the hall they
heard Mrs White scream and when
they reached her side she was dead.
Physicians were summoned and en-
probing the wound, found bullet
which came from As Colts revolver
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1904-03-30

and corresponded exactly to these car
riad nv the revolver White was firing
in such a reckless manner. Mrs.
White lived put few minutes after
the shot.
But little is known about the kill
ing except the accounts as given
White and Adams. White says the
shot which killed his wife came frGm
the outside, but careful search OF
the ground around the house fails to
reveal any suspicious footprints and
there are no holes in the walls through
which a shot could have passed.
It is known that White and his wife
had quarrelled the day before, but
the trouble between them had not been
of serious nature and at the time
Of the killing they were presumably
On good terms
White is still at Wilmot and has
MT been arrested. There is no eyi-
dence to connect him with the killing
except his actions in firing the pistol
so Fecklessly, and the fact that the
bullet taken from Mrs Whites body
is the same in size as those CT the
pistol which White was shooting in the
room.
Mrs. White, the murdered woman,
was about twenty-six years old ant
I'd lived in Wilmct all her lif
was formerly Miss Lulu Turner. Be
sides her husband she leaves one
child
There is much excitement at Wilmot
over the killing but the authorities
have taken no aeAm. awaiting the
result CT the investigations of the cor
oner's jury.

above that town the track is partially
submerged, and in many places has
been washed away. All through trains

around from Bald Knob, via Fair

though a local train runs over the

Pulaski Democratic Committee Refus-

Part of Wood.
CONVENTION CONTEST PROBABLE

Little Rock, March 30.-On the face
of the returns, Gov. Davis has carried
fifty-four counties, having 305 dele
gates, Judge Wood has eighteen coun-
ties with 122 delegates, and
three counties that have
fifteen delegates are either in doubt
or have not been heard from. These
deaucticas are based upon returns.
The number of delegates necessary to
secure a nomination at the hands of
the Democratic state convention is
222. 1t will be several days before the
popular vote in the primary can be
given. The total vote will approxi-
mate fully 125000
AS the situation RESPECTING the gov
erncrship now stands, the Democratic
state convention which meets in Hot
Springs June 12 will be the arbiter.
Contesting delegations will be sent
from a number of counties and upon
the result of these contests the guber-
material nomination will probably
hinge.
The Pulaski county Democratic COM
mittee met yesterday and canvassed
the vote of the county in Saturdays
primary. On the face of the returns
Gov. Davis had a majority of SO in the
county and by vote of 2S to wa1
declared the county's choice, although
Judge Wocd had entered a protest
against the vote as returned from
Manmelle and Bayou Meto townships.
Saturday all the counties will hold
conventions for the purpose of electing
delegates to the state convention, and
there will be spirited contest in the
naming cf delegates.
