HAMS BROTHERS, UNCLE
PUTS BLAME ON THORNTON
Relative BELIEVES He Instieated
Homicide, Which Otherwise
Wouldn't Have Happenad.

BEVERLY, n. J., August 1s-Reuben
e. Hams OF this place, the uncle of Can't
Peter {. Hams. U.S.A.. last night init.
mated that responsibility for the killing
is to be placed on the shoulders of Thorn
ton j. Hams, who, he believes, not only
aided his brother in the actual encounter
but planned the shooting.
Reuben Hams bases his theory on facts
that he says he has had the better part Of
lifetime to collect. When the two BROTH
ers were small boys they were in the
habit Of visiting him during the summer
months. and he had ample opportunity
to study their respective Compartments.
Crime Not Excusable.
THE difference between Connie and
Thornton" he said. was as marked as
between night and day. Connie was al
ways quiet and retiring. without the
slightest sign Of a furious temper. never
knew him to harm even a cat, as he was
below the average boy in rougliness. I
Will not say that he was cOwardly. he was
or the contrary, always a boy of high In
stincts and stood up for the right; but his
brother Thornton was his direct opposite.
Thornton was fond of a fight, eager
for outdoor sport of the toughest descrip-
ton. and he had a nasty temper He was
never favorite of mine. as were the
otnef Two boys. connie and John.
IF there was any planning at all in this
recent shooting case it was done solely at
the instigation of Thornton who had
counseled his brother to kill Annis
''Of course, / knew at the time divorce
proceedings were instituted what the
trouble was about. and Connie expressed
as probably any man would have done
his opinion of the d3stardly way in which
he believed Annis had wrecked his home.
But / do not think he was the sort of
man to deliberately plan Il mans muir
der in cold blood. What he would do in
frenzy is quite different.
Crime Not Excusable.
Put I am one of those people who do
not believe that two wrongs make right.
1 certainly think that Thorntons hand is
visible i'm all this. and to me it Is not ex-
cusablc. OF course. you understand that
7 wish to he perfectly fair to both the
boys. and I do not wish to say anything
that will be other than absolutely just
Personally have no feeling against
Thornton. but. as have said all along he
is the man who put Connie up TO it, who
never would have done it of his own ac-
cord

WHAT TO DO.
To Castro the Fresh, Who's Involved
in the Mesh, Of Fine Foreign
Quarrel or Two.

THE HAGUE, August 19-After a
nine hour session. during which the
dispute between the Netherlands and
Venezuela was canvassed exhaustively
in all it's phases, the cabinet dispersed
shortly after midnight last night and
Minister of Foreign Affairs Van Swim
deren porceeded to the royal chateau
at Het Loo to acquaint Queen Wilhel-
nina with the result of the council.
The terms of the Netherlands answer
to the letter of President Castro Of
Venezuela were fully discussed. and 1t
is understood that the actual text, as
to meet any possible eventualities,
were agreed upon.
Not a Case for Talk.
In diplomatic circles here the view is
entertained that the present difficulty
between Holland and Venezuela is not
of a nature to be settled by arbitration,
and in explanation 1T is pointed out
that the dispute is not of a private
commercial character like the diff
culties that have arisen between Vene-
zuela and Great Britain. Germany and
America. In these cases the govern
meflts in question sought satisfaction
for claims. but Holland has no claim
against SeHeZucld. II is maintained
here that the present question is rather
one of sovereignty and national honor.
matters which are not susceptible of
solution by arbitration.
Stitch in Time Saves Nine.
WILLEMsTAD. Curacao, August 10
Letters received here today from Vene-
zuela contain the information that the
authorities have established strict con-
troll over all Venezuelan customs
houses. No passengers are permitted to
enter or depart from Venezuela without
having first received the permission Of
the government, and such permission is
granted only to individuals who take
passage for points in Europe or North
America.
This measure is supposed here to have
been taken because of the existing diff
ficulty between Venezuela and Holland.

POR STATE SENATOR.

In announcing my candidacy
for the office Of State Senator on
the Republican ticket, it is pro-
per that the voters of the Thrift
eth District SHOULD understand
my position upon the political
questions i'll which we are all
vitality interested.
On national issues l am in full
accord with the policies Of the
present ADMINISTRATION, and |
believe that the convention at
Chicago has acted wisely in-nom-
mating man for President who
is so eninently qualified to CON
tinue the reforms inaugurated
by Theodore Roosevelt.
The progressive movement il
politics begun under the leader
ship Of Robert NJ. LaFollette to
secure to the people the advarta-
ges of representative government
in fact and the enactment Of laws
for the control of public service
corporations has been of meal
culable value to the state and
has attracted the attention of
the entire American people. To
strengthen and perpetuate these
laws and to guard against their
infringement is a duty thatevery
legislator owes to the common
wealth.
l believe in the Primary Elec-
ton Law, and would aid in
amending it so that voters would
be required to express their party
affiliations before securing their
ballots
believe in the Railroad Rate
Commission Law, asst has saved
to our people vast sums yearly
in transportations charges.
believe in the movement al
ready inaugurated to permit the
state to aid in the construction
Of good roads.
believe in the encouraging OF
immigration into Wisconsin that
the vast tracts Of fertile lands
now lying idle may be cultivated
and made to supply the necessary
agricultural products to a rapid
~ growing urban population.
| believe IN encouraging the ad-
vent of capital that the vast nat
ural resources of the state may
be developed.
believe in ail Of the progress
i've laws enacted by the Republic
an party and if elected State Sen
ator | shall work and vote for
the enactment OF all judicious
measures which have the estab-
Iishment of these policies for their
object

The proposition of the Chicago
II North Western railroad to es-
tablish an auxiliary force of
trackmen to cooperate with
patrOlmen of the state in the
prevention of forest fires in the
northern part of Wisconsin is one
that should be adopted on all
the lines of railroad leading
through heavily timbered sec
tions. The cost of patrol service
of this kind will be small in com
parison with the value of the
standing timber that is thus
safeguarded. In many instances
the patrolmen will be able to
quench incipient blazes which if
disregarded might cause the de-
vastation Of large areas.
