Certain leaders of the Democ-

law enforcement and the lid" in
Missouri. 1t sounds a little
harsh to say it, but such Demo

FELL DOWN AN AIRSHAFT
Witness in Important Criminal Case
Meets Death In Chi
poO0

Chicago, June 19.-Wiliam F. Reynolds
of Lexington, Tex, fell down an airshaft
from the sixth floor of the Grace hotel
early today and was instantly killed
Reynolds came to Chicago last night
with Sheriff Scarborough and several 9TH
er persons from Lexington as a witness
against Patrick LAWN, alias Cyclone
Pat" under arrest here charged with be-
ing an accOmplice of Charles Coleman, a
safe blower, who was killed near Gid
dings. Tex, in a fight with Scarborough
Reynolds appeared extremely nervous
last night. He said he did not wish to
sleep alone and begged to be allowed to
sleep in the room occupied by Thomas
Largent. a member of the party. While
Largent was asleep Reynolds left the bed
and going to a window opening into the
airshaft, either jumped or fell into the
shaft.
A coincidence with Reynolds death is
the fact that Sheriff Scarborough had
feared injury to his witness and had
asked for police protection. Yesterday he
telegraphed to Chicago, asking that the
train be met by detail of police. He
said he had reason to fear an attempt
might be made on the lives of some of
his witnesses The alleged plot was dis
covered as the train on which the party
was coming to Chicago was leaving Kan
sas City A former friend of Coleman
got on the train and at st. Louis two 9TH
er men boarded the train and met the
Kansas CITY man.

BELIEVES IN REFORM.
New Governor of Ohio in Accord
With Late Executive.

Columbus, O., June Ex-Governor An
drew !. Harris today declined to make
any formal statement regarding his pol
icy but it is maintained at the state
house that he is in accord with the late
governor in many of the plans he con-
templated regarding state affairs.
There is naturally much speculation
among politicians as to what he will do
regarding the few appointments that the
late governor has made The general be-
lief is that he Will not disturb them. The
many other appointments TO be made
will Of course. be made from a Repub-
lican party standpoint. There IS said
to be no doubt about that.
Only the appointments of the executive
staff and that of a state hospital trustee
have been confirmed by the senate. The
others are merely on appointment record
and the aDpOinJeeS have their commits
SiOns. Governor Harris may send them
to the senate when II COnveneS or he may
annul them and send in other names.
But, as the Democrats control the SEN
ate, such new appointments would prob
ably not be confirmed and the appOintees
of Governor Pattison, being in, would re
