Senatorial Eight.

AS can be seen from the above re-
suits in the city, Adam I.ittlepage, the
Kanawha county Senatorial candidate,
ran behind W. R. Lilly, Of Logan coun-
ty. the other Democratic Senatorial
candidate In Charleston. but ran ahead
Of the ticket in other districts and re-
duced Senator E. C. Colcord's major
ty in the county to something like
800 or GOO votes. The counties OF 10
ran ana Boone, each Democratic. re-
turned majority of about s. and 500
respectively, for Littlepage, making
line race between him, and Senator Col
cord for the long term in the Senate
very close and the result hinges on the
recount and official tally. Last night,
Secretary Of State, Chas. w. Swlsher,
stated that Senator Colcord had been
elected by six votes from the face Of
the returns. Sesator Leftwich was
elected for the short term over W..
=
IL. Lilly by nice plurality. He made
n good race in every district in the
county and there is no doubt OF his
reelection. When the complete re-
turns from over Kanawha county and
the official vote is secured from
Boone and Logan, the other two coun-
ties comprising this Senatorial district
ARE received Colcord's majority may
reach Il higher figure. The Democrats
say that Litlemge Is elected by u
votes. They claim he has received a
majority of IS votes in Logan county
and 523 III Boone. From figures they
have received In Kanawha county they
say that Litlepage is only 5S7 votes be-
hind Colcord, clecting the former by
u votes.

LADD TELLS OF KILLING
 FOR THE FIRST TIME

the killing of Scott Mr. Ladd told his story in substance as follows
 The day before the killing, he was warned by Cook that Scott had threat ened him and again the next morning. He decided it would be best for him to leave the mill and go to Pine Bluff to keep out of Scott's way. He stated that he was making preparations to go but first went to his room and put his pistol in his pocket. He then went to the automobile shed to get out his automobile but another hard shower came up and he decided 1t would be best to go to Pine Bluff on the train He started to return to his house about 30 o'clock, and just as he reached his front gate, Scott hailed him from across the street. He had answered Scott that he did not want to see him but was not sure the man heard him. Ladd then walk ed into the house and Scott, he alleges, followed him into the front room He states that when he saw Scott in the doorway, about seven feet away, he told the man not to come nearer at the same time drawing his pistol from his pocket and firing as rapidly as he could He states that after he had , il ed twice. Scott turat and fled. but as he turned L.add fired the third shot. He says the man then ran down the steps and toward the street. fall- ing on the outside of the fence. Then. the witness stated, he got his oyercoat and went to the store to tele- phone the sheriff at Pine Bluff. He states that he did not know at that time Scott was dead.
 When asked why he was afraid of Scott. the witness said that Scott worked at a profession was required great muscular strength, and while he iIat' done office woe'i fo!, tn" %reaief part of his life and was no match for the man physically. He knew of Scott's violent temper and cpnsidei- ed the man a dangerous man. The fe- peated warnings he had received from others led his to believe thal Scott would do him great bodily harm if he got hold of him.
