OUT OF POLITICS

Minneapolis Tribune: Congress
man Marshall. of North Dakota is
in the city for few days on a
business trip. When seen at the
Nicollet hotel today he had nothing
to say in regard to the political sit

attention to business entirely.
''In regard to politics,'I have
nothing to say for after election I
put politics to one side, and expect
to give my entire attention to bust

ment. When asked about the work

Chicago, H.. Nov. 13.--Mae Z.
Otis, arrested last night on a charge
of plotting to do away with her
mother through the agency of hir-
ed thugs, was pronounced sane to-
night by DR.. L. Blake Baldwin, city
physician.
DR.. Baldwin spent an hour with
the prisoner, testing her on various
subjects at the police department.
When the test was over he declar-
ed that the girls mind seemed nor
NAL, although, he said, she was on
the verge Of nervous collapse.

ceiyed by Captain O'Brien Of the de-
tectiye bureau, from Mrs. Sarah

Captain O'Brien detailed two de-
tectives to meet the woman. ri
Mrs. Otis, the mother, did not ar
4 rive until midnight. She went at
once to see her daughter at the police
station, and a pathetic scene follow
ed. Both the mother and daughter
wept when the latter was taken
from the cell and given the liberty
of the officers room. 5 5ss:
Mother, do you think I could do
such thing?" exclaimed Miss Otis,
throwing her arms around her moth
er. II never did: it is all hor-
rible mistake
Further talk was interrupted by
the young woman's historical sob
bling. After the interview the mother
said:
81 do not believe for an instant
that my own daughter plotted
against my life. I will do every
thing in my power and spend every
4 cent / possess to save her from pros
ecution on this charge"
Mrs. Otis was taken to the home
OF friends living In this city for the
night with a promise that she could
1 see her daughter again in the morn

that their possession of Miss Otis
placed them In quandary. Cap
tain o'Brien said the police would be
glad to allow her to leave Chicago

ROOT " Ants IT

Right Way He Can't Say
Nay \.

Washington, D. c., Nov. Il. Al
though Secretary Root ras repeated
ly declared that he is not candidate
for the New York senatorship there
is no doubt that he will accept the
position if it comes to him without
an unseemly scramble. ss. ..s
His friends, in a position to know,
assert that the secretary believes that
the honor of election to be senator
is very great one and if the people
of New York conclude that Roots
services are desired in that capaeity,
he would regard it as. duty to
accede to their wishes and accept
the position.
d Secretary Roots preference Is to
remain in private life and practice
law in New York City and enjoy
his family and home comforts. It
would be very agreeable to Mr..
Root to remain in his present posi-
ton as secretary of state but there
are reasons why he cannot do SO. It
would, however. his friends say, be
easier for him to say "no" to Mr..
Taft, should the latter ask him to
remain in the cabinet, than to the
the people of New York state II they
want him for senator.
