ACCUSES MOTHER
AS POISON SENDER
Child Says Father Would Not
Have Sent Deadly Candy
Victims Recovering.
Journal Special Service

Journal Special Service.
Trenton, N. j., May 2.-With the pos
tive assertion that her own mother
was the sender Of the box of poisoned
candy that came near costing several
lives, little Josephine Borden Daven-
port has turned the tide of police in
vestigation in that direction. The
woman is held in the county Jail on
another charge, but this is merely to
detain her until the poison mystery has
been solved. ..
Charles T. Davenport, the child s
father, Is "detained' by the order of
William j. Crossley, the county prose
cutor, pending. the Investigation, altho
the little girl insists that she knows he
did not send the box of poisoned candy
to her, "because he loves me too well, ;"
as she said with smile to the prose-
cutor. It is believed now that all the
victims Of the poisoned candy will
recover.
The authorities have not yet discov-
cred where the candy was bought, and
it is believed that the sender was cum
ming enough not to get it from any
dealer in Trenton. DR.. Adams says
that all Of the symptoms in those who
ate Of the candy point to arsenical poi
soning, and it is supposed the deadly
drug was sprinkled over the contents of
the box by the sender just before it
was mailed in this city.

STATEHOOD FOLK
AWAIT RATE BILL
With Railroad Debate Ended,
Conferees Intend to Get
Down to Business.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, May FIT is announced
that the delay of the statehood con-
ferees to reach an agreement and report
it to both houses is not so much due to
their inability to get together as it is
to their policy of Withholding any re-
port until after the rate bill is out of
the way. Once before during this SEES
sion the rate bill and statehood came
together, and there was an unpleasant
clash. It is the desire Of the conferees
to avoid a repetition Of this occurrence.
Just as soon as the rate bill has gone
thru the senate it is said that the state
hood conferees will get down to serious
work. Their report, it is still claimed,
will favor the admission Of Oklahoma
and Indian territory as one state, and
the reference Of the question Of the
union Of Arizona and New Mexico to
the voters of those territories in &C
cordance with the terms Of the Foraker
amendment. This conference report
may lead to protracted debate in both
houses, hence the desire to get the
rate bill out of the way first.
