BEING PREPARED
Democratic Congressional Com

Its Book by July |.
REPUBLICAN READY AUG /.
Early Putting Forth of Documents
Means That Campaign VIII be on
In the Near Future.

Washington, June 22.-The Democrat
&c congressional committee is making
an early start in the publication of a
campaign book that is unique in the
history of the party. 1t will be pub
lished July and win consist OF eX-
tracts from speeches made I'm Con-
gross. A book OF this kind was issued
by the Democratic congressional COM
mittee in 1904. 1t will permit Demo-
cratic speakers to inform themselves
very early on issues that are regarded
as OF most Importance by the commit
tee. Later on the committee will issue
an additional book containing addi-
tional matter.
The committee will open headquar-
tiers in Chicago Aug. /. and Represent
alive 7. Lloyd of Missouri, its chair
man, VIII take charge there. The WASH
ington office of the committee Will con-
tinue its work along such lines as can
only be conducted in this city. The
committee has begun the distribution of
the literature, and in the near future
Will enlarge its efforts along that line.
The Republican congressional campaign
book Will be out unusually early this
year, probably six weeks sooner than
1t was isued four years ago. The proofs
are practically corrected up to date
the Democratic convention meets. II is
customary to reserve portion of the
book for comment on the acton of the
Democratic convention and to include
the Democratic platform for the infor-
nation Of campaign speakers. The
book Will follow quite closely along the
lines of the last campaign book. except
that some new issues will be intro
duced and others that have ceased to be
OF interest will be dropped
Considerable space will be devoted
to the question of injunctions There
will be biographical sketches of the
various candidates. and the work of the
Republican Congress will be given full
Iy particularly of the last three ses-
sions.
At the latest the book will be issued
Aug. 1. This will give the campaign
speakers an opportunity to be prepared
for a nearly opening of their work
wherever IL is desired. The committees
is planning it's work with the idea that
this year. more than ever before. the
campaign will be waged by means of
literary productions through the press
and pamphlets and by speeches and by
the active work of spellbinders, For
that reason the early issuance of the
campaign book has been regarded as
especially desirable.

DIAB0LICAL CRIME

New York. June 23.-The finding of
parts of a human body scattered for
miles along the tracks of the Des

what may be a diabolical addition to
New York's crime annals. The hands
were found where the line crosses the

mutilated torso was picked up on the
bridge over Kent avenue. SO disflgur-
ed We're the face and body there was
no means of identification.
The police were in doubt today
whether the victim was accidentally
struck and cut to pieces by trolley
car on the Williamsburg bridge, ar was
murdered. The only clue to the identi-
ty of the victim is that he had black
hair and was of athletic build

Coroner Believes 1t Was Suicide;
Friends Incline towards
The Murder Theory.
WILLIAM TAYLOR THE VICTIM.
Elderly Man Found Lying Just Inside
His Door With n Gunshot
Wound In Abdomen.

Whether William Taylor was the
victim of murder. or shot himself. by
accident or design. is question that
is agitating the mind of Acting Coro-
ner Dana r. Smith. Taylor. who was
a widower "a years of age and had
lived alone for several years at 7a9
south Second West street, was found
dead shortly before Q o'clock this morn
ing.
The body was found lying just inside
the door of the one downstairs room &C.
cupied by Taylor. by Mrs. D. II. Drinen
who rents the house fronting the street.
AS he had been In i'll health for some
time. Mrs. Drinen had cared for him
as best she could, and the understand
Ing between them was that when he
was not as well as usual the fact would
be indicated by a certain position of
the window shade. Observing this
morning that the shade was tightly
drawn at late hour. Mrs. Drinen
went to the front door and found II
locked. then tried the back door, which
she opened and the body of her neigh
Dor was found partly lying on quilt
close to the door. She at once saw
that he was dead, and help was sum-
moned. 1t was supposed that the man
had died natural death. and the con-
trary was not known until the arrival
of the undertaken. The latter was
Samuel Taylor. and when he unfastened
the clothes of the dead man he found
a bullet hole in the abdomen. That
the shot was fired at close range was
indicated by the powder-b burned shirt.
Death had occurred some time before
the discovery OF the body.
REVOLVER ON BED.
Justice of the Peace Dana T. Smith
was called and after making a
thorough examination was of the OPP
inion that II was a case of suicide.
One empty chamber was in the rusty re-
volver that was found in the room.
and as nearly as could be determined
II had been recently fired. Members
of the family, however, are inclined
to believe that Taylor did not shoot
himself. They say that he was in the
habit of having his door securely lock-
ed, and they point to the fact that the
pistol was found lying on the bed on
the opposite side of the room from
where the body was lying. They
think that someone might have taken
advantage of the opportunity afford
ed by so many of the neighbors being
up town to the u. C. T. celebration. to.
rob the old man. He had lived alone
since the death of his wife, 10 or IL
years ago. He had a son residing half
n block away but preferred to live alone.
One son Is a resident of Idaho and a
daughter lives in Seattle. Mr. Taylor
was an old time member of the Fourth
ward. having resided on his property
there for many years. He was a ma
tive OF Scotland.
