AN AUTO MYSTERY.

Dead n Machine Two Miles
Out of Chicago.

Chicago, Nov 19-William Bate,
chauffeur, employed by Daniel Canary,
proprietor Of Il garage here, was found
dead in an automobile today, two miles
southeast Of Lemont. 1t is thought the
man was murdered. His home was III
Racine, Wis.
It Was Not Suicide
That Bate did not commit suicide, but
was shot down by an assassin, is indi-
Gated by the finding of an empty cartridge
shel! today IN the tonneau OF the auto
mobile
At the Canary company's Office it was
SAID today that when the call was re-
celVed last nighl 4 machine for two was
asked for
Dead Man Lived in Racine.
William Bate, the dead chauffeur, was
the only son of John W. Bate, superin-
tendent Of motor car company of Ra-
cine. Wis. Young Bate had been con-
nected with the Canary company for sew
eral years and was we'll known as q fast
driver
There was bullet wound in the back
OF his head and his body was hanging
over the side Of the automobile.
On card in the pocket of the dead
mans clothes were the words:
"Mr Dove at Auditorium"
Call for Mr.. Dove at Auditorium"
At the Auditorium it was said that no
one named Dove was registered there
Nothing whatever was known Of such a
person.
The automobile and the corpse were
discovered by a farmer. The machine
was backed up on one side of the road
and the wheels were blocked with tim
Der to keep the car from rolling down
an incline into a ditch.
Guest Wanted an Auto.
Investigation at the Auditorium today
developed the fact that man giving the
name of "Dobbs" had appeared at the
hotel last evening and had asked Ed
ward Slavin, the hotel telephone operator,
to have Daniel Canary send an automo-
bile to the Auditorium entrance at once.
The theory is advanced by Bates en-
ployer that the young man was mu--
dered by bank robbers. It is thought
that Bate had discovered the robbers
plans and had frustrated them. The
idea is that the men who hired the auto
mobile were bank robbers and contem-
plated raid on some bank in some small
town.

REMAINS At tSOPuS
Judge Parker viii Not Go to
New York to Campaign

ESOPUS. N. Y, Sept. 1.-THE fol-
lowing authoritative statement was is
sued at Rosemount by Arthur Nc
Causland, Judge Parker's private Sec
rotary.
"The stories that Judge Parker is
to go, to New York to take. personal
charge of the canvass or to assist the
committee in its conduct, or that he is
dissatisfied with the work of either the
national or state committee, are un-
true. He is gratified with the efforts
of both committees. He believes the
members of all of them are working
intelligently, tremendously and effect
telling about it. The judge has
thought of going to New York for a.
day or two after the publication of
his letter of acceptance, but he may
not even do that"
Col. Daniel S. Lamont came to Rose
mount yesterday. This gave him an OPP
portunty to talk over the political sit
didate accepts Col. LamontS state
ment that he does not desire the gov
ernorship nomination for New York,
and it is understood that he has no in
tention of asking him to change his
mind.
Many of Judge Parker's visitors
advised the candidate to go on a
speaking trip. They said his pres
ence is needed in the doubtful states.
Judge Parker later discussed the ques-
ton with William F. Sheehan, chair
man of the national executive COM
mittee; Col. Daniel S. Lamont. Her.
man Ridder, of New York, and former
Representative Pugsley, of Peekskill,
N. Y. At the conclusion of. the con-
ference it was announced authorita
lively that the formal statement is
sued will stand for the present so far
as any trip to New York is concerned,
and that Judge Parker is not now dis
posed to make a speaking tour.
Mr.. Ridder has undertaken the work
of organizing the German vote in
number of doubtful states to support
the Democratic ticket. He will be in
charge of canvass of the vote of Il
linois. Connecticut, New Jersey, New
York, Indiana and Wisconsin, and said
he believed that all of these states
may be carried for Judge Parker if
earnest work is done from the outset.
Judge Parker was urged by Mr.. Rid
der to make at least ten speeches in
the doubtful states. Mr.. sRidder sug-
gested trip, by Judge Parker little
later. in the campaign.
