London, Nov. 8.-The retirement of
Sir Mortimer Durand, the British am

take place at the end Of this year. He
has been permitted TO resign at his
own urgent request and intends to
permanently leave the diplomatic str

Curzon May Succeed Him.

Why Judge Favrot Shot an Old
Friend Is Mystery.

Baton Rouge, La, Nov. s.-The
cause Of one of the most dramatic
shootings in Louisiana's recent history
when Judge George K. Favrot last
night killed his life long associate, DR..
H. H. Aldrich, was still unknown early
today. The fact that Judge Favrot
the leading figure among Louisiana's
Democratic congressional nominees
was on Tuesday elected by a majority
demonstrating unusual popularity.
that both men were married and oc-
cupving some Of the most respected
positions at the state capital and the
circumstances that the street near
which the shooting occurred was at
the time filed with leading officials OF
the city. accompanied in some cases
by their wives. made an unusual set
ting for the tragedy. Dr. Aidrich's
friends offer no explanation for his
death and Judge Favrot after spend
ing the night in Jail said nothing to
supplement his explanation made i'm
rnediately after the shooting to the ef-
feet that he had sufficient cause
It IS expected that AIdrich had
been warned that Judge Fayrot would
shoot on sight

Missouri show that the Democratic
state ticket has won by a majority Of
probably 5000
There is still some uncertainty as to
the result of the contest for supreme
judge for the long term which is ten
years Kennish. Republican nominee
has led his ticket in every county thus
far heard from, where's Woodson,
Democratic candidate is slightly behind

Nineteen state senators were elected
Tuesday. OF these number fourteen are
Democrats and five are Republicans.
AS they serve for four years they will
have voice in the selection of a United
States senator in 1909. The members
of the house are elected for only two
years.
In the legislature the Democrats will
have majority Of thirty on joint bal
lot at the session which opens in Jan

expressed himself as greatly pleased
with the general result of the election.

ers had departed from Missouri" he

Harris in Wyandotte county said:

they objected to-"
The following is the Wyandotte vote
