ROOT IN THE RACE.
He Announces That He Is a Receptive
Candidate for Senator

Washington, Nov. 16.-When Senator
Chauncey NJ. Depew of New York left
the White House today he made some
pointed utterances On the senatorial
situation in his state. He was asked If
he had come to Washington to see the
men whom he had recently said were
electing the next senator from New
York in Washington.
''Well, the man who thinks he is
electing the senator has gone to Hot
Springs" said Senator DepeW, referring
to National Committeeman William L..
Ward of New York. There are three
or four New York men who spend most
of their time down here telling the
president who shall be appointed am
bassadorS abroad, irrespective of the
New York senator and the rest of their
time is devoted to eIecting our sena-
tors.
'I desire to saw that the next legis-
lature will choose a senator. The 201
members who compose that body are
able. representative men who can
neither be driven, hoodwinked nor bull
dozed."
Mr.. Depew said that the old organiza-
tion in New York is 'alive and doing
business at the old stand"
Secretary Root today made the fol-
lowing statement regarding the sena-
torial situation in New York:
II think the Republicans in New
York who have expressed a wish to
bring about my election as senator are
entitled to definite statement as to
my position.
''I am not seeking the office of SEN
ator I do not think that great office
ought to be given to any one because
he wants it; but if the legislature of
New York representing the people of
the state feel that 1 can render useful
service to the state and the country in
the senate and call upon me to render
that service I shall respond to their call
and accept the office"

in Lamphere Trial.

Laporte, Ind, Nov. 16.-For the
purpose of leading up 10 the motive
for setting fire to the Guinness house
by Ray Lamphere, Prosecutor Smith
today offered in evidence a number of
letters written by Mrs. Guinness to A.
K. Helgelein regarding the disappear
ance of his brother and also placed
before the jury certain documents and
papers by which the signature of Mrs.
Guinness will be identified The let
ters will not be read at this time.
In the cross examination of Mrs.
William Flynn, which was taken up
first the defense accidentally brought
out a strong point in favor of the
state when the witness testified that
the rings which she saw on the
fingers of Mrs. Guinness in life were so
tight and Mrs. Guinness fingers were
so fat that they could not have been
removed without filing them off.
These are the rings which were found
on the fingers of the dead woman af-
ter the fire and were identified by
Mrs. Flynn.
Attorney NJ. E. Letter, who was
Mrs. Guinness legal adviser, testified
that formerly Mrs. Guinness signed
her name Belle p. S. Guinness but
that some time before the fire, she
In the proceedings in this case the
name used by the officials has been
Belle Guinness This evidence was
gotten to the jury for the purpose of
showing that the initials "P. 81 found
in the rings were part of her name.
He told of trouble between Lamphere
and Mrs Guinness over the wages of
the former. Mr.. Letter also identified
, the signatures of the woman to the
Helgelein letters.
A. K. Helgelein was called to the
stand and told of his brothers de-
parture for Laporte, early in January.
When he failed to return after an alb
sence of more than two months an

suited in the finding of a total of Sc
