without a break. The contests from all
other states had been withdrawn.
Before the night was half over 1t was
plain to every one that the allies would
not succeed in overturning a single de-
cision which had been made by the ma
tional committee. When Texas was
reached Chairman Fulton invited the
room that they might listen to the argu-
ment made by Col. Cecil A. Lyon, ma
tional committeeman from Texas, inti-
mate friend and frequent host of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. Col. Lyon is not law

manner he advocated the cause of the
Taft delegation. involving thirty-six seats.

posed by A. N. Sager. of ST. Louis. The
result was the same as in all of the pre-
ceding cases.
Cases Of the Allies Weak.
After the committee had adjourned
Chairman Fulton and Representative Fas-
sett asserted that the cases of the "allies"
were weak in every particular and could
not have been decided otherwise than as
they were. Both of these gentlemen said
that the charge that the national COM
mittee was prejudiced in favor of Secre-
tary Taft had been refuted and the COM
mittee fully indicated.
Mr.. Fulton announced that he would not
draw the report of the committee until
after he had had few hours sleep. 1t
was not his intention, he said. to enter
upon any discussion of the merits of the
cases or into any defense of the national
committee; but, if necessity arose for
such a defense, he would make it on the
floor of the convention.
He expressed the opinion that after
dissatisfied members of the minority had
had their opportunity to sleep for few
hours over the question they would
change their minds on the subject Of pre-
senting q minority report.

LONG BEACH, July 26.-The summer
season of 1908 practically reached its
height today and with the exception OF
holidays the largest crowd of the season
gathered here. The strand was con-
tinuously thronged with people, num-
bering pleasure seekers here for the
day from all available points and dur

hosts who have secured every available

SAN BERNARDINO, July 26.-Great
interest here is manifested in the trial
of Justice of the Peace Stanley w.
Houghton for the murder of Hierony-
mus Hartman, the Mojave river cattle
man, which will commence tomorrow
morning before Judge r. f. Oster.
The case will attract more attention
than any similar case here for some
wears. because of the notorious char
acter of Hartman for more than TWEEN
ty wears, and also because the accused
is a township officer of Orc Grande.
1t will be remembered that Hartman
had been convicted of assault with a
deadly weapon on his stepdaughter,
pretty Irene Brown. He had been re-
leased on bail and the morning before
he was to come to San Bernardino Tor
sentence he got on g. spree and was
terrorizIng his family and the entire
community when Justice Houghton
showed up on the scene in response to
the appeals of the neighborhood and
shot Hartman dead on his doorstep.
Public opinion has been quite d.
vided as to the justice of the shooting,
many feeling that Houghton was en-
tirely justified, while others assert 1t
was a. cold blooded murder and that
Houghton should be punished accord
ingly.
District Attorney Dickson will be
assisted by Attorney F. b. Daley,
who has been retained by the widow
of Hartman Justice Houghton will be
defended by Senator H. M. Willis and
Attorney e. ]. Fleming of Los Ange-
les. 1t promises to be bitter battle
in which many personalities will figure
to a great degree.

snecial to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
VENICE, July 26.-The efficiency OF
the new government volunteer life
saving service was tested this morning
in a thrilling rescue by boat crew No. 1.
B. Nolie, a resident of Ocean Park,
was upset by the heavy rollers While
padding in a canoe about hundred
and fifty yards off shore. A general
alarm was turned in and the power
house whistle brought the crews and
swimming guards to the scene tmme-
diately.
Boat No and Swimming Guards
George Freeth, Lou Hammel and Frank
Holborow started for the scene. Nolle,
who could not swfnb had gone down
twice before the bow oar of the boat
dragged him on board, assisted by
Freeth, who had arrived meantime
after a long swim through the surf.
The crew Immediately beached its
boat and the nearly unconscious man
was resuscitated and taken to his
hin1e.
The crew landed him on the beach
in less than eight minutes from the
first blast of the alarm whistle, which
feat probably establishes a record run
for life-saving crew.
Hundreds of people on the beach and
pier witnessed the act and cheered the
rescuers loudly on their landing.

RETURNS TO PRISON
TO SERVE OUT TERM
After Breaking His Parole, Thomas
Mccarthy, Convict, is Con-
Verted and Goes Back
to Prison

MICHIGAN CITY, July 26.-Thomas
M. Mccarthy has voluntarily returned
BOZ miles to serve out an unexpired
term Of fourteen years in the northern
Indiana penitentiary.
Five years ago he received the four
teen years for burglary. Three years
ago he was paroled TO a citizen Of
Kokomo. He promptly violated his
parole and fed to the state of WASH
ington. Recently he fell under the in
fluence OF the Salvation Army and be-
came a convert.
His enthusiasm in the way of piety
surprised lJrsons who had been labor
ing In the vineyard all their lives He
was not only enthusiastic, but sincere.
Then he resolved to save money for
carfare and return and serve out the
unexpired term.
In 1903 Mccarthy Che is 40 years old
now gambled away his money one
evening in Montpelier, Ind. Then he
got drunk, broke into a store with his
pal" and stole $500 worth of surgical
instruments, which he sold later for
$3.50. He was caught and sentenced
to from one to fifteen years hard la
Dor in the Indiana state penitentiary.
He drifted into North Yakima,
WASH, and began attending Salvation
Army meetings. The strange, emo
tional songs and impassioned preach
ing took ho4d," and after time he
jointd the army. Charles Churchill,
convicted of manslaughter. and Joe
Flanney, a murderer, went to the meet
ings with him. Soon after his CON
version" McCarthy's conscience began
to trouble him. Early In June he wrote
to Governor Hanly of Indiana telling
him of the circumstances OF his es-
cape from the state and of his intention
to return and serve out his sentence.
Come ahead" wrote Governor Han-
ly in reply. "Your broken parole will
mean a sentence of fourteen years, but
you have made me a promise. Now
fulfill It," There was no word of q
possible pardon or mitigated sentence,
Within a few weeks Mccarthy had
earned enough to pay for the long trip
to Michigan City, and last Wednes-
day he started.
He reached Chicago this morning,
had a long talk with Colonel French,
territorial secretary of the Salvation
Army in Chicago, and then went on to
Michigan City.
Booze did the work for me-" he told
Colonel French. II was drunk when
I committed larceny, and I was drunk
when / broke my parole. Now, I have
not taken drink for eight months"
