as a delegate to the International
Parliamentary congress- Representa-

leader in the house, gave it as his
opinion that President Roosevelt
would consent to run again.
Il think" said Mr. Williams, that
the president is planning it so that
he will be forced to make the race
The president rather reminds me of
the old lady of Saragossa who hung
about asking when the gentlemen
were going to begin kissing, as she
wanted to be there
The minority leader declared that
wv. j. Bryan is the logical candidate
of the Democratic party"
Mr.. Williams did not say whether
he intended to meet Mr. Brayn in Eu

refused to serve on the reception com
mittee which will welcome Mr.. Bryan

WORKMAN TIED
TO FLY WHEEL

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, July 14.-Fifty men
We're arrested today in New Brighton,
Staten Island, charged with the murder
of a fellow workman by tying him to
fly wheel shaft in the factory where
they worked and watching him while
the machine mangled his whirling body
and beat the life out of it.
At first it was thought the death OF
the man, Frank Getzner, was acci-
dental; then it was claimed it was the
fault of a prank, but investigat ton by
the coroner and police brought to light
feud between the victim and his
murderers and several former attempts
to kill him.
The man who is said to be directly
responsible for the murder was the only
one of the gang who escaped, and the
police of Greater New York are on his
track.
This man was reported two weeks
ago by GetZner to the superintendent
of the factory for neglect of duty
Since then Getzner has been doomed
There is evidence there was a terri
BILE struggle.
While fifty men overpowered theil
victim and tied him by the feet a
rope was passed over the revolving
shaft and allowed to trail free until
the end caught under a blight of rope
AS the shaft wound it up the man
was jerked from his feet and thrown to
the floor and then hoisted into the air
until all the slack of the rope was
wound around the pulley.
The body whirled around and around
thra shing against the beams and ma
chinery until life was extinct
