Middle in West Virginia.

Charleston, w. Va, Sept. 21.-The Re-
publican state committee, after hearing
c. w. Swisher's announcement of his
withdrawal as a candidate for governor
and after accepting the resignation,
went into executive session tonight to
discuss what action was to be taken to
fill the ticket.
After two hours elaboration, messen-
gers were dispatched for Arnold c.
Scherr, candidate of the Lincoln Re
publicans and F. NJ. Grant. chairman
of the Lincoln committee. Mr.. Grant,
speaking with the approval of Scherr.
made the proposition that the two COM
mittees should meet and organize a
new committee and that this committee
should name compromise candidate.
Mr. Schers is to withdraw If the prop
osition is accepted. 1t was nearly mid
night when Messrs. Scherr and Grant
withdrew and the committee again
went into executive session.
There is also some talk OF Senator N.
B. Scott for governor. and he is here
on the ground. but the avowed oppo-
sition of the Scherr supporters to him
will. il is believed. eliminate him from
consideration.

Clemens Gould. who Is suing Howard

mony and $4,000 for her counsel fees. The
argument was adjourned until Oct. J. at
the request of Cornelius Sullivan. counsel
for Mr.. Gould. Mr.. Sullivan declared that
Mrs. Gould is undergoing no hardships
and added:
Mrs. Gould is generously allowed for
by her husband In November, 1907 Mr..
Gould started to provide for, her at the
rate of $4,000 a year The plaintiff has
had pledged the defendant for articles
purchased since the alleged separation. TO
the extent of 100000 or s150.O00. She pur-
chased jewelry to the amount of $50 900
within six weeks of the time of the al
legged abandonment"
Clarence j. Shearn, counsel for Mrs.
Gould, replied that 1t was very necessary
that Mrs. Gould be provided for al once.
He said:
Mrs. Gould is being bounded by agents
of the defendant and Swallowed wherever
she goes by his spies. Life is made mis-
cradle for her and she has recently been
made the victim of rank conspiracy to
blacken her character by the defendant.
Testimony has been purchased by wit
ness If Mr.. Gould was willing TO spread
scandalous abuse of his wife throughout
a twenty-four page answer. he should now
come into court and substantiate these
charges.
Immediately following the temporary
disposition of this action of Helen Kelly
Gould against Frank j. Gould for absolute
divorce was called in the same court
room and the court fixed Oct. as the
date for a hearing.

HEARST POKES
HASKELL AGAIN
Says the Court Records Make
the Accusations Against
Oklahoma Governor.

New York. Sept. 21.-W. r. Hearst, who
has been campaigning for the national
ticket of the independence party in the
south and middle west. returned to this
city tonight and soon afterward issued a
statement concerning the charge of Gov
ernor Haskell of Oklahoma In his re-
cent speeches Mr. Hearst had charged
that Haskell, who is now the treasurer
of the Democratic national committee.
had sought in 1893. to influence Attorney
General Frank S. Monett of Ohio to dis
miss certain suits then pending against
the Standard Oil company. In a telegram
to Mr. Hearst. which he made public last
night, Governor Haskell invited Mr..
Hearst to publicly prove his charges be
fore committee of editors.
Mr.. Hearst refuses to accept the sug-
gestion of a board of arbitration, in the
following language:
ITO the Associated Press: l address
this communication to you. as 1 cannot
have the slightest correspondence or con-
troversy with a man of Mr.. Haskell s
character.
Mr.. Haskells proposition reminds me
of the well known story of the burglar
who was caught in the act by the police
found him in front of a safe which HAD
been blown open. with his tools in his
pocket. a dark lantern in one hand and
his other hand on the valuables in the
the court room and the judge said to the
culprit:
well what have you to say for your
SELF?
1.-The burglar said: Look a-here judge
let's arbitrate this case
The court records, the complaint OF
the ex-attorney general of Ohio. Mr.
Monett: the affidavit of the assistant OF
the present attorney general of Ohio, Mr.
Burnett: the court records of the state
of Oklahoma in the Prairie Oil & Gas
company case, accused Mr.. Haskell. and
not /.
Mr. Haskell has had many years In
which to sue Mr.. Monett If that gentle
man committed a libel in naming G.. n
Haskell as one of the men who attempted
| to bride him in the Standard Oil case.
Mr.. Haskells proposition 10 arbitratt
the matter now shows that he has q
sense of humor, even il he has not q
sense of honor.
