of Executive of Kansas.
Lunatic Says He Is the Enemy

That Is Why He Wanted TO Close
the Career of Mr.. Hoch.
He Is Now in Jail and Will Be

Topeka, Kan, April 5.-An insane
man. who gives his name as j. Ever
est Worthington, whose former place
of residence the police have been I'M
able to learn, was captured Monday
within a block of the state house,
where he said he was going to kill
Governor f. w. Hoch The man was
unarmed, but he is of a powerful
build and undoubtedly would have
handled the chief executive roughly
had be not been intercepted. The
news Of the capture was withheld for
day by the police.
Worthington is now in the county
jail and will be sent to an asylum.
Communication with him is held
by means of written questions and an
swers, as he pretends to be deaf and
dumb. In answer to question In re-
gard to what his purpose was with
the governor Worthington said:
81 was inspired by Pyrus, the god
of fire, to come here and kill Govern
or Hoch. have sworn eternal ven
geance against all statesmen who pre-,
tend that they are self-made men. II
1t had not been for this officer who
captured me, Governor Hoch would
have been no more, for I was on my
way to the capitol to kill him when
was arrested One who has risen
from obscurity to high place is the
worst enemy of the impecuniouS gen.
tsel. Therefore, l hate Hoch."

adjacent to the aristocratic Lake
Shore drive. The figures favored the
Republican candidate. notwithstand-
ing that the ward is the residence of
Mayor Carter Fl. Harrison, DEM, who
carried the ward In the last munich
pal election. Soon, however, the
Democratic sections began to be heard
from. Dunno was soon in the lead
and was never overtaken. The plu-
rality for Dunno, DEM, was estimated
at between $4,000 and $4,000 votes
years ago, Harrison, Dem, defeated
Stewart, Rep, by 1860 plurality. The
city, however, was carried by the Re-
publicans in the presidential election
last fall by heavy plurality.
When asked for his opinion as to
the cause of his defeat, Mr.. Harlan
said:
1.-THE people of Chicago became in
fatuated with the idea of immediate
municipal ownership and the ma
jority of them cast their votes that
way
Party lines and politics were for
gotten" said Judge Dunno. Munich
pal ownership was the one great is
sue before the people OF Chicago and
the returns at hand show very plain
ly how the majority of the people of
Chicago feel toward the private
ownership of public utilities. 1t Is
the greatest victory for public owner
ship ever won in this country.
Every pledge l made during the
campaign will be solemnly kept. Chi
cago wants municipal ownership and
during my tenure of Office it will be
my aim to bring about such a condl-
ticn as rapidly as possible"
Judge Dunno was elected by plu-
rality Of 24,24S and received ma
also had the distinction Of receiving
the greatest vote ever cast in Chica.
70 for q candidate for the Office of
mayor. He was given 161,659 votes
out of q total of 322,s73. Mr.. Har-
Ian received 137,411.
John F. Smulski, Republican candi-
date for city attorney, was reelected.
The other candidates on the Demo-
cratic city ticket were elected by plu-
ralities somewhat smaller than Judge
Dunno. Frederick w. Blocki was elect
ed city treasurer and Adrian G. Arson
city clerk. The new city council will
probably be Republican.
The entire Independent municipal
ticket in East St. Louis, headed by
Mayor Silas Cook, was successful. G.
W. McCaskerin, Independent, was
elected mayor of Rock Island. In
Quincy, j. A. Steintsach, Dem, was
elected mayor for the sixth term.
In the city election in Springfield
the Democrats made clean sweep.
