MIR. WILLIAMS ASKS CAUCUS Plan F'f Leader is Not Known. HE DECLINES TO TALK Fears That He Will Lay Down
 His Duties. The Democrats Now More Than Ever Have Confidence in Him De- spite Recent Severe Defeat of
 the Party.

Washington Jan. 20.--lSpeciaL)-- There has been some gossip touching a report that there is next week to be a caucus of the Democratic members of the house. It does not clearly ap- pear, upon inquiry. what is the pur- pose of the call for caucus meet ing.
 One report has had it that Mir. Will jams wished it held to indicate to the Democrats of the house that he was ready to abdtcate his leadership of the monority. This appears to be purely guess work.
 There has been a movement for a party caucus for the Democrats. but when 1t became known that there was a report that Mir. Williams was In the notion of surrendering the leadership. it Is said that the members who had given acquiescence to the call took pains to have their names withdrawn from endorsement of it.
 x.kCauens Will Re Held.
 Nevertheless, there Is some time within the next week or ten days, ac- cording to most reliable information. to be a caucus of the Democratic mem- bers of the house. What is to be its impelling cause nobody seems to know. except Mir. Williams. and he win tell 1t Vufy So bhc SooSuST "HSA " h'cSNS him.
 There has not been the slightest in- dication of dissatisfaction with Mir. Williams's leadership. On the con trary, although the Democrats, in view of the result of the last election, have felt themselves more deeply in the minority than ever. they have been more closely drawn than ever to Mr. Williams. assured as they are that re- cent party diversity has not in the least dismayed him nor swerved him from his determined insistence upon Democratic principles.
 A prominent Democratic said to- night: Praise for the Leader.
 There can be. nothing founded upon reason or fact In any talk of John sharp WiFiianssss restsniue from thn leadership except upon his own indL- vidual desire to be relieved of the great responsibility and semi-martyr wisdom which are involved in his posi- ton.
 If 1t were a fact that therea was a movement to put somebody else in his place 1t would be a hard and interest ing problem to determine not merely who conld excel him but who among the Democrats of the house could equal his as q leader"
 A good many correspondents are sending out that Mir. Williams intends to resign the leadership of the minor ity. but he himself says nothing and nobody knows but himself what he in tends to do.

 Intense excitement followed this se- ries of crimes and the police and citt- zens secured the surrounding country for the negro. Piersall was captured near the city limits. In his possession was found a bloody pistol and his clothing and shoes were wet and bloody. The shoes fit the tracks found at the three houses, and on them was mud containing cinders similar to that in the Wagonor yard. A long scratch on his face appeared to have been made by finger nail.
 After being identified by Mrs. Wag- oner. the negro was immediately taken to the local jail and later removed to Louisville for safe-keeping,
