Washington. Dec. 7.-The speaker ship fight was somewhat cleared today by representative Townsend of Michi- gan. declaring to members who ap- preached him on the subject that he was not candidate for speaker.

SUSPECTED MURDERER OF ELECTRICIAN BOAS
1t Is Believed Now That An EmpIoye Sent Him the Poison

San Francisco, Dec. That John W. Wilson will be charged with the murder of his employer, Henry Boas, the young electrician who died in great agony last week fro mstrychnine poi soning taken in powders sent him through the mails, was a statement made tonight by Captain of Detectives Kelly.
 The theory which the police held for several days that Boas sent the pow ders to himself, knowing that the con tained strychine and committed suicide in this peculiar manner. was suddenly abandoned on Saturday when the de- 'tectives placed Wilson under arrest. Theodore Kytha, the handwriting ex- pert. after a thorough comparison of the letter with Wilson's hand writing, made a report that Wilson wrote the fatal directions.
 We will charge Wilson with mur- der" said Captain Kelly, upon the theory that he was prompted to com init the crime so as to get possession of the business. There were a number of large outstanding accounts which could have been collected without difficulty. This money would have put Wilson on his feet. His money affairs are in a bad tangle."
 It was Wilson's assertion after the death of his employer. that he was partner in the firm. that first caused suspicion to he directed against him. Wilson has been subjected to a terrible sweating" ordeal and is said to be on the verge of a nervous collapse

only reasonable to suppose that the supervisors who had under oath ad- mitted that they had accepted money for criminal purposes were not sub jecting themselves to the contempt and adherence of the community or giving up office unless they were ac- tually guilty in every respect.
 Mir. O'Gara said that the case of the prosecution might safely be rested up on the testimony of Supervisors Gal lagher, Wilson and Furey, if the law did not demand that the statements of an accomplice must be supported by other testimony. It was for this req son, he said that witnesses had been called to support the allegations of the prosecution that Ruef, as well as the members of the board had accepted money from different individuals in return for the granting of privileges to the United Railroads, to the fight trust" and to the Home Telephone

THE OPENING ARGUMENT
The Defense Will be Heard For Eight Hours Today the Case Ought to Reach The Jury by Tomorrow Night.

San Francisco. Dec. 7.-The third trial of Abraham Ruef, former political boss of san Francisco in this instance upon an indictment charging the brib- cry of former Supervisor John J. Fur cy in the award of the United Rail roads trolley franchise is in the stage argument and the case should be in the hands of the jury by Wednesday night
 The presentation of evidence came to an end rather suddenly, counsel for defense calling no witnesses, but con tenting themselves with the introduc- tion of documentary testimony and the intcrpoSition of the motions that were fepied.
 z. The failure of the opposing attor- nAvs to agree upon a scheme of argu- abnt made it necessary for Judge LawIor to impose an arbitrary ar rangement whereby the prosecution was given this afternoon and Wednes- day morning. while the defense was allotted tomorroW's session of court, aggregating about eight hours.
 It was agreed that Henry Ach should open and Thomas B. Dozier should close the case of the defendant and that Hiram Johnson should take up the case of the people where it was left today by Assistant District Attorney O'Gara.
 After thanking the jury for their pa tience and patriotism and giving to Francis J. Heney the major portion of the credit for outlining the case MT O'Gara began a narrative of the oc- entrances that led up to the alleged bribery. To establish the connection between Gallagher and Ruef, Mir O'Gara advised the jury to consider the admission of Gallagher that he had acted as paymaster after various conversations with the defendant. and other testimony, exclusive of that which might by the defense be charac- terized as the statements of an ac- CYmplice. and therefore not entitled to full credcnce.
 He reminded the jury that there 1eed be no testimony that an offer or
 DFment of money was made directly } 7 Ruef, in order to establish the de- fendants guilt. He stated that it was

SORROW IN THE SENATE
The Sessions in Both Houses Were Cut Short by Early Adjournments Taken as Marks of Respect for the Memory of the Dead.

Washington, Dec. 7.-Both houses of congress held brief sessions today, an adjournment being taken out of re spect to the memory of those members who died during the recess. The only business transacted by the senate was the swearing in of Senator Page of Vermont.
 The first half hour the house was in session was devoted to a roll call to ascertain the presence of a quorum. The formal opening of the house wit messed remarkable demonstration for Speaker Cannon by the republicans and many democrats loudly clapping their hands and cheering for several minutes.
 Soon after Mir. sherman of New York, vice president elect, came into the chamber and he was accorded an ovation from his republican colleagues. In like manner the democrats roundly applauded their new leader, Champ Clark, when he arose in his place and forced an explanation regarding the absence of the credentials of the new member from the Third New York district
 While the clerk read off the names of the members, the house was in great confusion, the speaker several times being compelled to rap for or der The roll call disclosed the pres ence of 331 members. The seven new members then were sworn in to fill vacancies by death or resignation since during the last session. Among them was John H. Swasey. republican. successor to MT. Littlefield, who re- signed during the last session, from the Second Maine district.
 Before consenting to the swearing in of otto c. Foelker, republican. the new member from the Third New York district. Champ Clark requested an explanation of why his credentials were not before the house. The eX- planation was satisfactory and the oath was administered.
 By unanimous consent Mir. Payne secured the adoption of a resolution authorizing the committee on ways and means in their investigation and inquiry for the purpose of preparing a bill to revise the present tariff laws, to subpoena and examine witnesses under oath. and to send for necessary records, papers and other evidence.
 The speaker appointed a committee to join a similar committee from the senate to notify the president that the respective houses were in session and prepared to transact public business.
 Resolutions were adopted expressive of the regret of the house at the death of Representatives DunwaI of New York. Powers of Maine. Parker of South Dakota and Wiley of Alabama. and Senator Allison of Iowa, and as further mark of respect the house at 1:02 pm. adjourned.
