Thomas Drudy Scored by the
Prosecutor in Open
Court Today.
BATTLES WITH TWO MEN.
CHARGED AND CONVICTED FOR
ASSAULTING ITALIAN AND
WILL FACE OTHER CHARGES
WHEN RELEASED.

Thomas Drudy is human only in size
and shape, according to the prosecut-
ing attorney. If there is any worse
man in the city of Richmond, the pros
ecutor does not know him, judging
from statements he made in open court
this morning. Drudy was accused of
abusing his wife and family and of
spending money he manages to pro-
cure from his wife or by his own sell
dom spent efforts, for liquor. He was
on a drunk yesterday afternoon and
after a struggle with two men was
locked up. This morning in city
court he was fined SO and costs. He
was charged with assault and battery
on Louis Salzarulo, an Italian. Other
affidavits charging him with assault
and battery on William Reese and pub,
lie intoxication have been prepared
The man probably will be prosecuted
on these charges upon his release from
Jail.
In a very badly soused condition
Drudy stumbled toward his home near
Thirteenth and North F streets yes
terday afternoon. He encountered
William Reese, a railroad engineer
enroute and began an argument
Reese tried to induce the drunk to
move on, but Drudy demonstrated and
struck at Reese. SalZarulo was neal
and attempted to act the part of the
peacemaker. His well meaning efforts
were resented by Drudy and he struck
the Italian an uppercut on the fore

! the police were summoned
| Drudy is known to the police as q
| trouble maker and has been involved
in scrapes of various sorts frequently
/ He has been intimate with the Italiar
! residents of Riverdale and is reckonet
as one of the ''undesirables'' by some
| of the other residents.

Echo of Mount Moriah Case
Heard in Divorce Court
Today.
COURT INTERPRETS LAW.
DEFINES THE MEANING OF TERM
"cRUEL AND lNHUMAN TREAT
MENT" WHICH WILL BEAR ON
FUTURE CASES.

Scandal that stirred the ranks of the
Mount Moriah Baptist church members
a year or so ago was recalled in the
circuit court today, when the assertion
was made by an applicant for divorce
that upon his unexpected return to his
home, he found the Rev. Henry Ran
dolph partaking of the noon meal with
his wife At that time the Rev. Ran
dolph was pastor of the church. The
applicant was William Mckinney. 1t
was but shortly afterward that the
congregation was hot on the trail of
their pastor and his resignation was
accepted Mckinney testified that
when he went to his home and found
er, he asked for an explanation. Not
satisfied by what was forthcoming, he
told the pastor to leave and his own
wife thereupon turned against him
and declared if Randolph was not well

Township Case.
COURT is WELL PLEASED
MATTER DELAYED FOR SOME

WEST RIVER RESPONSIBLE FOR
TOWNSHIP FIGHT.

After a protracted delay and contin-
,;ous expression of difference of
opinion between attorneys for the pc
titioners and demonstrators in the cell
ebrated Dalton and Perry township
ditch case, an agreement was reached
this morning and Judge Fox named
Henderson Oler of Dalton township as
the ditch commissioner. The court
expressed his pleasure that the matter
was settled. He had endeavored on
several occasions to appoint commits
sioner, but the man he had chosen
was not satisfactory to both sides in
the litigation.
1t is proposed to construct ditch

er, which flows through the two town
ships. Land owners adjacent to the
stream, claim its channel is so shallow
it leaves it's banks with almost every

the land. The same stream flows In
Randolph county and there Is move

it. Objection is made to the PROPOSE
ton, because owners Of land removed
quite a distance from the stream will
have to pay a portion of the cost of the
work The law provides for the as
sessment of property to pay the cost
These owners claim they will receive
no benefits from the Improvement and
ought not be held liable for any SOsts

About the Middle of Septem-
ber According to Arrange
mentS Made.
NEGRO PREACHER TO
FIGHT FOR REPUBLICANS
The Rev. Williams Will De-
liver Four Speeches Each
Week During the Month of
October.

f. NJ. Haas. republican district chair
man. stated today that the republican
campaign in Wayne county would op-
en- the middle of next month by
monster meeting to be held at the
coliseum. This meeting will be ad-
dressed by Congressman Crumpacker
OF the Tenth Indiana district. Mr..
Crumpacker is one OF the most elo-
quent speakers in the state. Mr.. Haas
says that this meeting will not be the
formal opening of the campaign in the
sixth district. He says it has not yet
been decided where the district cam
paign will be launched.
In an effort to hold the negro vote
Mr.. Haas and his associates have se-
| cured the service of the Rev n. We'll
lington Williams, pastor of the Bethel
| A. NJ. E. church of this city Mr. Will
liams will deliver four speeches
week during the month of October. As
he is one of the most influential ne
groes in the district he is expected
to be of great assistance to the party.
He is a leading member of the Indiana
A. M. f. conference.
1T is understood that many of the
colored preachers in the state are ad-
vocating that colored voters should
vote the prohibition ticket this fall.
owing TO the races long standing en-
nifty to the democratic party and the
recent dissatisfaction with the repub-
|
day.
When the colored race is called up
on to make a choice between two
evils it is best to select the lesser"
he continued. 1T is an assured fact
that either the republican party or
the democratic party will be victor
ious. Since. from a colored mans
standpoint, the democratic party is
such a huge evil ii is not advisable
for colored man to vote for Bryan.
In the past the republican party has
always stood by us and the colored
voters, despite the Brownsville Incl
dent, should now stand by the repub-
lican party. To vote the prohibitionist
{ ticket would be rendering assistance
to the democrats"
Speaking of the Brownsville affair

VIM. Dudley FouIke Says lnde-
pendent Voter Can Support
Republicans With But Few
Exceptions.
RICHMOND MAN CLOSE TO
TAFT AND ROOSEVELT.
Republican Candidate for
President Has His Eyes on
Sixth District-FouIke May
Take Stump.

"I firmly believe that the whole re-
than the whole democratic ticket.
This is not a year for split tickets,
either. My position in the past as an
independent republican is too well
known for me to be accused Of bour-
bon adherance to any party. L have
in the past always endeavored to sup
port the best man wherever he is
found This year every independent
voter can support the whole republi-
can ticket with but very few excep-
tions."
This is the statement made last ev-
ening by William Dudley Foulke, who
has just returned from Watch Hill,
r. L.. which is near Sycamore Hill,
President Roosevelt's summer resi-
dence While at Watch Hill Mr..
Foulke was frequently in communities
tion with President Roosevelt, w. H.
Taft and Frank Hitchcock, republican
national chairman.
In the past Mr.. Foulke has been
known as an opponent of James e.
Watson but. judging from his state
ment that the whole" republican
ticket this year is better than the
whole" democratic ticket, Mr.. Foulke
now, apparently, has become reconcil-
ed to Mr.. Watson and will support
him for governor.
1t Il. probable that Mr. Foulke will
take the stump" this fall but has not
yet made any decision on this matter.
He states that Mr.. Taft will probably
make a short speech-making tour late
In the campaign. AS to what Presi-
dent Roosevelt's plans were he had
nothing to say.
Interested in Indiana.
Mr.. Foulke states that Mr.. Taft is
taking the keenest interest in Indiana
politics and he is especially interested
in the campaign in the sixth district
Mr.. Taft has been informed that there
are two republican factions in this dis
trict and he keeps sharp watch on
all congressional districts where this
state OF affairs exists. Mr. Foulke is
confident of republican victory in In.
diana
Mr.. Foulke will make Richmond his
headquarters throughout the cam
paign and he will keep in close touch
with Mr.. Taft and the other republi
can leaders, informing them on condi
fions in this state. Like President
Roosevelt Mr.. Taft holds the highest
opinion of Mr.. Foulkes judgment and
advice

ANXIETY FELT
BY THE PHYSICIANS
Epidemic of Scarlet Fever Is
Feared.

With the report of another case OF
scarlet fever, there is some anztety
fear the disease may become an cpl
demic. The three cases that now are
under treatment are in widely separat-
ed parts of the city. Precautions have
been taken to quarantine the homes
of the patients against visitors. The
disease is held by members OF the
medical fraternity to be more danger
GUS to children than smallpox in the
form that it has prevailed here. Child
rem often are left MANNED, crippled
or with damaged eyesight as the result
of scarlet fever's visitation.

Chairmen Hitchcock and Mack
Have Sent Word to All
Campaign Workers to Get
Together.
HITCHCOCK'S CALL
HAVING ITS EFFECT.
Response in Iowa First Strik-
ing ExampIe-Die Is Cast in
New York - News. From
Washington.
Especial to the PaIIadium.)

Washington, Aug. 2S.-"Get togeth-
er," is the slogan Chairman Hitchcock
has sent out from national headquar-
ters to Republicans in every state of
the union where there is anything with
even the appearance of party discord.
'"The time has come" says the nation
al chairman, when republicans should
fight the opposition, ana not among
themselves"
Nor is Chairman Mack one whit be-
hind Hitchcock in urging party unity.
1t is being pointed out to Democrats
that in the past the republicans have
won a lot of battles because as cleo
tion day approached they quit fighting
among themselves and presented a sol
i'd front to the other fellows If DEM
ocrats had copied the republicans in
getting together, says Chairman Mack,
there would have been fewer democrat
ic defeats in recent years.
Iowa furnishes the first striking re.
sponse to the republican get together
call. The conference a few days ago
at Des Moines at which a harmony
program, with respect to the United
States senatorship was agreed upon is
Iregarded as having removed the sena-
torial succession as possible danger
to the presidential ticket. The mat.
ter of the senatorship In Ohio still pre-
sents an ugly situation, but hope has
not been abandoned that the full For
aker strength can be voted for the ma
tional ticket on election day.
All is not yet satisfactory in New
York, but while lacking official confir.
| nation. it is accepted that President
Roosevelt has cast the die in favor OF
the denomination of Gov Hughes
| Hughes nomination would lack a lot
of meaning complete harmony in tho
republican ranks, but it probably
would mean a larger republican vote
| than the nomination of any other man
and with this the republican manage
ment will have to be content.
The democrats have been doing theil
share of getting together. In a mum
| ber of states sore places are being
smoothed over. and it begins to appear
that neither party will be able to coun
| largely upon factional fights within
| the other.
