WOMAN WHO SAW .cARMAcK
FALL FIRST WITNESS
Actual Taking of Testimony Will
Begin Tuesday-Four of the
Jurors Cannot Read
or Write
[By Associated Press.I

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Feb. 1S.-With-
out further change the jury was
sworn this morning in the case against
Colonel Duncan B. Cooper, Robin ].
Cooper and John D. Sharpe, charged
with the Staying of former Senator E
W. Carmack.
The state asked for several days in
which to gather it's witnesses. The
court suggested that the taking OF
testimony begin Tuesday morning, and
this was agreed to-
Every one connected with the case
drew long breath Of relief today
when the state announced that it was
satisfied with the jury selected.
For twenty-five days the court, at
torneys and officers had been trying to
get competent jurors. 1t was neces-
sary to draw five venires of 100 each
and one of fifty-nine before the jury
was secured. AS it is, four of the jury
can neither read nor write, and two OF
these speak English only indifferently
One man of the twelve swore he had
not read a newspaper since before the
killing, and some had not read one fol
ten years.
Mrs. Eastman, who was talking tc
Senator Carmack when he was killed
probably will be the first witness
called.

MAN WITH AWL ATTACKS
MANY WOMEN IN BERLIN
Southeastern Section of City in State
Of Panic-Numerous Girls
Assaulted

BERLIN, Feb. 13.-A series of at
tacks on women and girls has set the
southeastern and eastern districts of
Berlin in a state of panic.
Three women were attacked Tues
day evening by man who used a
sharp instrument, believed to be a large
awl, wounding them on the lower por-
tions Of their bodies. One of his vic
tins bled to death and the others were
badly wounded
On Wednesday there were two SINH
lar assaults on girls. This afternoon
in the vicinity OF Lichtenberg another
girl was attacked in the same manner,
but she warded off the weapon with
her hand, which was severely cut Her
cries of alarm brought an excited
crowd, members of which, suspecting
the criminal had taken refuge in a
neighboring house, searched it from
cellar to roof, but he was not found.
A dozen men were arrested, but all
were released on establishing alibis.
This evening an armed youth about
20 years old was arrested. Two of the
victims of the stabber declared they
recognized him as their assailant, and
he was detained.

LACK CONFIDENCE IN
PREMIER OF TURKEY
CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES VOTES
ITS MISTRUST
Unprecedented Scene Attends Adop-
tion of Resolutions Rejecting on
Grand Vizier KamiI Pasha
at ConstantinopIe

CONSTANTINOPLE, Feb. 13.-After
a lengthy sitting today the chamber OF
deputies passed a vote of want of con-
fidence in the grand vizier, Kanil
Pasha, by 1913 to s.
The chamber also directed the presi-
dent to communicate to the sultan a
resolution requesting him to appoint
a prime minister possessing the con-
fidence of the house.
AS a consequence the grand vizier
has handed in his seals as an officer
Of the sultan.
The want of confidence vote was the
result of Kamil Pasha's refusal to ap-
pear before the chamber today and eX-
plain recent ministerial changes.
The scene in the chamber was un-
precedented. The galleries were
crowded, many of the foreign diplomats
and several members of the imperial
family also being present.
The session was marked by intense
excitement, and during the course of
an animated debate Deputy Ismail
Haka referred to the grand vizier as
a liar.
A storm of protests against this epi-
thet arose, but the president remained
impassive.
Communications from the former
minister of war and marine, protesting
against their removal by the grand
vizier, were greeted with cheers.

WHISPERS CUT:
MAYOR INDICTED
PROMINENT LOUISIANANS IN
QUEER MIXUP
Attorney Loses Hirsute Appendage at
Election and Charges 1t Was
Done to Intimidatee
Him
EBy Associated Press.l

NEW ORLEANS, Feb. 13.-Attorney
E. A. O'Sullivan of New Orleans was
ruthlessly shorn of his flowing whisk-
ers at a recent election, and as result
Mayor Paul Felix and four other prom
inent citizens of Kenner, La, were in
dicted today on a charge of conspiracy
and agreeing to arm themselves with
pistols, guns, scissors and other weap-
ons, to injure, oppress and threaten GER
tain voters.
AS Mr.. O'Sullivan, legal adviser OF
opponents to Felix, approached a vot-
ing booth, it is said, a number of his
political opponents hoped out and un-
kindly refused to permit him to enter.
We'll cut off his whiskers,'' one said
The delighted politicians fell TO with
will and the barber act was quickly
and painfully, if not artiStically, per-
formed.
Other persons at the polls were in
timidated to some extent also, it is
charged, but their whiskers were not
disturbed, and so they left the prosecu-
ton to Mr.. O'Sullivan.

STORM BREAKS IN NORTH
AFTER DOING BIG DAMAGE
Expected Flood in Sacramento Valley
AVerted-Vineyards Under
Water

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 13.-From
Redding to Los Angeles there is intel
ligence today of an interruption to the
steady rainfall of the last few days.
Cloudy weather, with intervals of
sunshine, prevails at San Francisco,
and showers are predicted by the
weather bureau for this portion of the
state.
Reports from points throughout the
Sacramento valley indicate that the ex-
pected flood has been averted. The
congestion of passenger traffic at Santa
Barbara has been relieved, and all
trains within the state are reported on
schedule.
AS the result Of the storm a number
of vineyards to the east Of Fresno are
under overflow water, though it is not
thought that any serious damage has
been done as yet.
The waters of Dry creek, which for a
time threatened to flood the city, are
receding, and unless heavy rains set in
now all danger from that source is
past. Men have been on guard on
the banks of the stream for the past
three days.
At Clovis, ten miles east Of Fresno.
Dry creek overfiowed and the waters
extended to the outskirts of the town.
Indications at present are for more
rain.

fierce Blizzard in Colorado

DENVER, Feb 13.-The worst bliz-
zard of the winter is raging in the
mountains of Colorado tonight and as
a result railroad lines that have been
tied up nearly a week and which the
officials believed We're about to be
opened, will probably continue block
AIDED for several days more. The Den
yer & Rio Grande has called in its
snow plows from Marshall and Poncha
passes on its narrow gauge line, but has
thus far managed to keep open the
traffic of the Tennessee pass on the
main line between Denver and Salt
