TRAGEDY RESULT OF JEALOUSY
Will Estes Kills Robert AycOck, Then Ends Life of Mrs. Es-
 tes in Lonoke County

Lonoke, Ark, May %. - A double tragedy occurred four miles south of here on the Chapline place this afternoon. The victims are Mrs. William Estes and Rob ert Aycock. Both were shot and killed by Will Estes, husband of the dead woman, and jealousy appears to have been the sole cause of the crime.
 The story of the tragedy, as re- ceived here, is that Estes and wife and Aycock had been working in the field, and that Estes, being of a jealous turn, suspected that Ay- cock was trying to win the affec- tions of Mrs. Estes. He would not allow her to go to dinner to- day until Aycock returned from his meal. When about two o'clock this afternoon, Estes went to the field he found his wife and Ay- cock working near each other. He fired at Aycock killing him in- stantly. Mrs. Estes started to 1un when the shooting began. She had not proceeded far when the enraged man turned his pistol upon her. At the first shot which Estes directed at the fleeing wom- an she fell. The bullet had struck her in the back of the neck, death resulting instantly.
 The shooting was so sudden and unexpected that 1t was all over before others close at hand could realize what 1t meant. Estes did not tarry on the scene. He hur- ried away and was lost to view by the time those attracted to the spot by the shooting saw clearly the result of the shooting. Soon after Sheriff House and deputies reached the Chapline place, in re, sponse to notifications of the shoot ing, a posse was sent out on the supposed trail of the fugitive, but up to late hour tonight Estes had not been found.
 Estes and his wife and Aycock had been farming or working as farm hands in this section for some time.

PROBING DOODLE CHARGES AGAIN Raney and Toney Before Pulaski Grand Jury in Connection
 With BoodIe Inquiry

Little Rock, May 30.-The Iegis- lative poodle investigation which has been under way at intervals for the past year IS again in full swing, and the indications are that some developments will result from the present line of inquiry within the near future.
 Four indictments were returned by the grand jury yesterday against persons not in custody, and 1t was reported that at least two of these were connected with the boodling inquiry. No arrests had been made last night, however.
 It is expected that there will at least be several indictments in the next report made by the jury.
 Senator Toney of Jefferson county, who is now under indict- ment on charges growing out of alleged boodling in the legislature, was a witness before the grand jury yesterday, but nothing is known as to the nature of the tes- timony which he gave. Repre- sentative Raney of Independence county was also before the inquis- itors. He was in the city only & short time, returning to his home yesterday morning. Representa- tive Chambers of Yell county, and Representative Witt of Faulkner county were also in the city, and were at the court house.
 In the investigation up to the present time the grand jury has confined it's attention chiefly to the senate, but the presence of so many members of the lower house in the city has led to the belief that the scope of the investigation is to be extended to include the circumstances connected with the passage and defeat of various bills in the house. Up to the present time the only members of the house who have been indicted are Representative Chapline of Mon roe county and Representative An drews of Nevada county. All of the other indictments have been against members of the senate or others who were not members of the legislature.

CITY TO FIGHT
THE RAILROAD.
Will Open Bids Tonight for the
Bridge Out the North Shore
Branch.

Had the Central railroad agreed to
build the bridge over the track of its
branch, the Raritan North Shore
railroad, the approach to the Amboy
bridge might be complete, but, as
they have steadily refused, the board
of aldermen are to receive bids for
this needed link in the approach. The
city will carry on it's fight, however,
to compel the railroad company to
bear the expense. according, it is
claimed, to law. The c. R. RS coun
sci has sent an opinion to the local
authorities asserting that he does not
think the railroad company is oblig-
ed by law to go to that expense.

years old, mother of Mrs. Franz Roes-

SMoOT AND BURTON.

Some OF Shoots sympathizers who
saw a miracle in the apostles cruel
election and who see q daily miracle in
his useless stay in the Senate. pretend
to think that Senator Burton is the
ram In the thicket TO be offered UP as
a sacrifice in lieu OF the hierarch- But
they are likely TO be disappointed
No act OF greater impudence has been
attempted In public history than the
effort to substitute the case Of Burton
for that OF Smoot before the Commit
tee on Privileges and Elections Of the
United States Senate. The Smoot case
has been in that committee during
more than three years. The case of
Senator Burton has not yet officially
reached the committee.
In the case OF Smoot. the action Of
the committee and the subsequent ac-
ton OF the Senate are both needed 10
determine a question of vast interest
to the people of the United States. In
the case OF Burton the matter Is prob
ably self-deciding. for. while a vote
may be necessary in the Senate to de-
clare the seat vacant, the real decision
will be reached when the judicial pro-
ceedings in the Burton case shall have
been brought to an end. or when Sene-
tor Burton shall have resigned. Those
members OF the Senate Committee on
Privileges and Elections who entered
strenuous and successful objection to
the interposltion of the Burton case
were clearly within the proprieties. Not
only were they acting In consonance
with the proper proceeding Of the COM
mittee, but they were in accord with
popular sentiment.

AUTHORIZED"

The Deseret News attempts to an
swer the resolutions OF the Presbyte-
rian general assembly against the Nor
mon church and Smoot-
It's plea Is that "the authorized dec
laratIons of the authorities OF the
church are In direct opposition" to the
tone OF the resolutions and the indorse-
ment which The Tribune made of the
action of the Presbyterian assembly.
Readers should note the use OF the
word authorized" by the organ of the
Mormon church. Therein Is the "ker-
mel in the nut" The Mormon hlerarchs
go on talking and writing. revealing
and prophesylng. denying and craw-
fishing, arraying their precept against
their own practice. and arraying pre-
cept against precept and practice
against practice, Whenever they wish
to affirm the authenticity OF any word
or act they assume that 1t is author
lied" when 1t emanates from any au-
thorlty OF the church. Whenever they
Wish to disclaim responsibility they de-
clare that It Is not authorized" There
you are. 1t is the simplest case in the
world. The Mormon church can for
ever defend itself by this mcthod-and
1t is the only way it can defend itself.
