BRIDES DEATH MAY
COST HIM HIS LIFE.
Gashed Arteries in Arm on Window
Pane In Calling Help When
She Dropped Dead.

NEW YORK, Oct. 26.-Ler0y Nc
Lean, a young electrician, was found
in his home, in Harlem, with the ar
terry on his right wrist severed and
bleeding to death. and with the bo'ly
of his bride in his arms. She had
died Of heart disease, and he, in Il
frantic effort to summon help. had
damned his arm through the window
glass, ripping the flesh to the bone.
Policeman Lonergan heard the cries
for help and run up to the Mclean
apartments. He forced open the door
and came upon the young husband, his
arm bleeding. On the sofa lay the
young wife, her face and hands cover
ed with the blood Of her husband, who
was bathing her face and begging her
to come to life.
''You need treatment. too" said the
policeman. "You had better get n
doctor. I'll attend to your wife"
The policeman then tore off the
strap from his night stick and formed
knot With it about the mans arm.
A physician came from Lebanon Hos.
pttal in short time. One glance at
the wife showed him that. she vas
dead. = z, n ais s..
"She died Of heart disease over an
hour ago." he said.

ZION SEPHEN ELKINS
And Ills GREA WORK

This worked a great injury to those
Disseminated against; and the ques.
ton Of finding a remedy to prevent
such Injustice fell to the lot Of, Sen.
ator Elkins. He prepared, presented
and had passed the law that now bears
his name. "The Elhns Law" law
that has withstood the assaults Of the
railroads In the courts Of West Vir.
gnia aud the Supreme court Of the
United States; and has gone down In.
to history as the one law containing
the necessary power to prevent all
kinds Of determinations resorted to
by railroad corporations. The debates
in the Senate during the consideration
OF this bill were the most notable that
have occurred since the days Of the
while the speech of
Senator EllSins has rarely been ex.
celled In the parliamentary history Of
the country; and was one Of the most
remarkable events In the debate He
showed familiarity with the. aintfi.
cate and complex questions OF rail-
road rate determinations that was not
equalled by any other man in the SEN
ate. Fair, impartial and just to all in
tcrests involved, he has come to be
recognized as an authority on these
most important questions; and one
whose advice is sought by all men
regardless of party. Truly, a most
envlable position. Senator Elkins has
by his untiring efforts in behalf Of the
people, so endeared himself to their
interest that 1t would be calamity,
were he to decide to no longer serve
the Sttae Of West Virginia in the
Senate Of the United States.
He Is not the special champion OF
LAHORE for he represents both capital
and labor, and in that capacity looks
after the interests of all the people |
understanding as he does the rela-
tions that should exist between en-
ployer and empIoye, the working peo-
pie ofWest Virginia can place their
interests in his keeping as arbiter, !
feeling sure that his decision will in
no way be an unjust one. For these
reasons ltliowfng him as we do, we
strongly urge the organized working
men OF the State to take advantage of
his advanced knowledge and ability,
as opportunity offers. He will and
can do more to harmonic existing
differences than any other one man
III the State, so that with the advice
ana assistance which he can render,
strikes and labor troubles, In that
State at least, may become a thing of
the past.

New York, March 27.-District Attorney Moss in the Tombs police court and ap- piled for warrants to be used in testing the legality of the contribution of insur- anee companies funds to political cam was mentioned at the time. After listen ing to MT. Jerome Magistrate Moss said that before he would issue any warrants in the matter. evidence would have to be ted. To establish this evidence Mir. Jerome asked for the issuance of a number of subpoenas in blank to be used in John Doe proceedings before the magistrate. issued. It was said at the district attor- pey's office that every effort will be made to get the proceedings under way to- morrow
 is carrying out the policy he announced before Justice O'Sullivan in the court of special sessions last Friday when he de- 1ended the opinion he had previously rem dered that there had been no crime com nlltted in connection with the campaign contributions.
 Justice O'Sulivan ruled, however that if it could be shown that there was any intent to defraud the rghtful owners of the property, it was for the grand jury to say whether or not the case was ono of larceny. He so instructed the grand

jury, and urged the grand jurors to fear lessly investigate the matter. and not to seek shelter in the fact of an unpleasant duty.
 Mr. Jerome asked Justice O'Sullivan if he would not. sitting as a magistrate, issue warrant for the arrest of George w Perkins, former vice president of the New York Life Insurance company, in order that writ of habeas corpus mig nt be obtained, and the matter taken at once to the highest court. MT. Jerome also suggested that If the contributing to campaign committees by the officers of the insurance companies constituted lar ceny the matter involved Chairman Cor telyou, and Treasurer Bliss of the repub- lican national campaign committees in tne matter of receiving stolen goods.
 Justice OSullivan declined to act in tne case, saying there were plenty of mag isterial courts before which the matter could be placed, and the warrants se- cured.
 Before Magistrate Moss issued the blank subpoenas requested by District Attorney Jerome today, he examined D. P. Kings ley, vice president of the New York Life Insurance company, who appeared before him. E. D. Randolph, treasurer and sev- eral employees of the New York Life, were examined in the district attorneys of flee this afternoon. It was stated to- night that MT Perkins has agreed to appear at the proceedings tomorrow.
 It was learned today that the grand jury has not asked District Attorney Je- rome for any more evidence In the insur- ance cases besides what he has already furnished the jury several days ago.

This contest is between R. R. Kornegay and A. J. OHalloran, and while there Is no an nouncement of a contest it is possible that repetition of the Montgomery legislative condition will ensue in Dal- las.
 A. D. Pitts and s. c. Lacy are elected by good majorities for the legislature and it will take the official count to deter mine whether Kornegay or O'Halloran will receive the most votes R. E. L.. NieI, whose election was conceded by nine out of every ten political observers. is close up with the latter two, but the remaining beats to be hard from will not put him close enough up to make any doubt rest of his defeat.

 For Senator-N. r. Reese.
 For Representative-A. D. Pitts, s. c. Lacy and either O. J. oHalloran or R. R. Kornegay. with the chances favor ing Kornegay.

STORER'S RECALL
 IS SENT BY CABLE
AUSTRIA I5 STILL PUZZLED OVER ACCEPTANcE-THE AMERICAN AMBASSADOR WILL REACH vI- EMMA FRIDAY.

Vienna, March 27.-The foreign office received this morning a dispatch from Secretary of State Root regarding Am bassador Storer as follows:
 q have the honor to advise your ex- celleney that the president has been pleased to terminate at once and with out any such delay as would be incident to the transmission of a letter of recall by mail, the authority of his ambassador, MT. Storer, to represent him. The presi- dent has accordingly recalled MT. Storer whose representative functions have al ready ceased. This action will be sup plemented by formal letter of recall which already has been signed, and will be presented to you in accordance with the formal custom in such matters. See retary River of the Viennese embassy has been named in charge request your excellency to receive him and treat him in that capacity
 Foreign office circles are not quite sure how, to meet the request of President Roosevelt. The officials stick to the opinion that there is no precedent for not regarding MT. Storer as ambassador as long as he stays In Vienna without hay ing presented letter of recall, The key to the embarrassing situation Is now in MT. Storer's hands. He will reach Trieste Wednesday night and proceed at once to Vienna,
 A letter of recall can only be presented, according to court and diplomatic eti- quette, by an ambassador to the em- peror. and not to the foreign minister, and by no means by charge. It is de- clared that the simplest way of settling the somewhat difficult situation is for MT. Storer not to stay in Vienna while the letter of recall may later be pre- sented by his successor. Mir, Francis.
 The foreign office today informed the Associated Press that Emperor Francis Joseph this morning approved the ap- pointment of Charles Spencer Francis of Troy. New York, to be ambassador of the United States to Austria-Hungary.
