MRS. LEAvITT FOR CONGRESS.

Mr.. Bryan's Daughter Will Be in the
Race from the First Colorado Dis
trict.
Denver, Col, Oct. S.-Ruth Bryan
Leavitt, daughter of the Commoner,
has announced her candidacy for
Congress from the First Colorado dis
trict.
With the support of the Jane JEFF
ferson Club, of which she is presi-
dent, of former Senator Patterson
and his papers, and with her fathers
prestige in Colorado, she expects to
again put Bryan before the nation.
But Jane Club members much old
er than Mrs. Leavitt, some of them
old enough to be her mother, think
that If a woman Is to be sent to
Congress from Colrado the elder
stateswomen should be considered.
The Republican women are busy
along the same line, and the wife of
United States Marshal Dewey G. Bal
ley is likely to be a candidate before
the Republican First District conven-
tion.

Wilmington, n. c., Oct. AFTER
a weeks trial in the Superior Court
here, Joseph Stephens, white, twenty
| seven years old, was convicted this
| afternoon OF murder in the first de-
gree. He was charged with shooting
TO death E. r. Shields, a rival sani-
tary contractor, on the streets here
last July. This is the first conviction
OF white man for a capital felony
since the civil war. Stephens will
be sentenced tomorrow to electrocu-
tioE at Raleigh, after which his at
torneys will give notice of an apepal
tc the supreme court. Stephens re-
| ceived the verdict with apparently no
| realization of what the verdict meant
| to him. He is exceedingly short of
stature and is known about the city
as Shorty" He was employed as
collector for the sanitary firm of Fur
long & Co.. here. and his victim held
similar position with another firm,
the men having accused each other of
collecting for work done by the rival
firm. They had words for several
days, and finally the difficulty result
ing in the shooting early on the
morning of July 9th. Stephens made
TO effort to get away and quietly
gave himself up to a downtown mag
istrate.
Both the prisoner and the victim
were married men and each has
children, who were present in the
court room during the trial. Stephens
attorneys made thei.. fight for acquit-
al on the grounds of self-defense,
but the State was strong in it's testi-
n .ony of generalization.

Will Support Balance of Fusion
Ticket in Order to Beat Tammany
Ring.
New York, Oct. 9.-After two days
Of silence, William Randolph Hearst
announced to crowds of waiting con-
stituents, at an early hour this morn
ing that he would accept an inde-
pendent nomination for mayor of
New York, provided that his associ-
ates upon the city and county tickets
be substantially Republican-fusion
nominees, as already selected. His
statement, outlining the conditions
upon which he will accept, is In part
as follows:
Whether I am a candidate or not
I will support the rest of the fusion
ticket nominated in opposition to
Tammany Hall. When the Indepen-
dence League committee withdrew
from the fusion conference, 1t decid-
ed that it still stood ready ito sup
port frank and honest expression OF
progressive principles and candidates
irrespective of party; this is your op-
portunity to substantiate that declar-
alton. Nominate me If you so desire
with the greater part of that fusion
ticket behind me and I will run.
"The candidates nominated on the
fusion ticket are worthy of support
The ticket is already in the field. Il
we nominate another ticket, both
tickets may be defeated. If we nomi
nate the fusion ticket, Tammany will
be defeated. And If Tammany Is de
feated the citizens will win"

FOUR BURNED TO DEATH.
Two Negroes Arrested on Suspicion

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. Sin con-
nection with fire in which four per-
sons were burned to death, two ne
groes were arrested on suspicion.
The fire broke out while the occu-
pants of the house were asleep. So
great headway it had gained when
discovered and so intense was the ex-
element caused by the Mortified
screams of women that no organized
attempt at rescue was made until af-
ter four fire companies arrived on the
scene.
In spite of heroic efforts to enter
their apartment in the face of the
flames bursting from the windows,
every memeber of the Fishman fam
lily but one perished. Miss Rachael
Markeson, the other victim, lived in
the same apartment.
