TRIAL OF w. I. JONES
CAROLINA MAN ACCUSED OF KILL
 ING HIS WIFE.
Wealthy Planter Faces, Jury on This serious Charge--DOct0r SweaRs
 That StRyehnlne
 Caused Death.

Union, 8. C., Feb. 3.-The trial of W. T. Jones. a prominent and wealthy planter of this county. charged with noisonIng his wife last July, began in earnest this afternoon.
 Attorney George Johnston, of the defense moved to quash the indict- ment because 1t was indefinite as to inc kind of poison alleged to have been used and because the character of the bruises of Mrs. Jones's dead body were not described. The motion was over ruled by Judge Memmenger.
 pr. Jeter, the Jones family physi- clan. was the firBt witness. He told how he had been hurriedly summoned bv Jones and found Mrs. Jones in con vuIsiona, brok enly repeating the Lords Prayer and asking forgiveness for her slns. She died In fifteen minutes.
 His opinion was that death was caused by strychnlne poisoning. He sald he saw a bottle in the room con taining strychnine. Jones seemed un- affected. he said, when told that his wife was dead.
 Other witnesses told of seeing bruises on the body when preparing 1t for burial.
 The court ruled that testimony shall he allowed as far back as practicable to show the relationship existing be- tween Jones and his wife prior-~-to death. The trial will be continued to- morrow.

Gainesville, Ga, Feb. s.-The grand iury of Hall County today returned true bilaa against W. N. Dyers former Ordinary. and former Chairman of the Board of County Commissioners; l. F. Duncan, former member of the Board and |. D. Welchel, chairman of the present Board. charging malpractice In ofIice.

TALK OVER CRUM
NEGRO COLLECTOR sURJEcT OF
 DEBATE IN SENATE.
Republiean Senators seem Determined to Save Taft Trouble of Re- tecting the NeGro--Dem-
 0crats Good Natured.

Washington, Feb. 3.-Nearly four hours were devoted by the Senate in executive session today in considera- tion of the re-appointment of William D. Crum, as collector of customs at Charleston, s. c. Confirmation is op- posed by Senator Tlllman, aided by his Democratic colleagues.
 Thus far there has been nothing in the proceedings to Indicate that there will be a flibuster by the Democrats against action. although 1t Is known there are a number of Senators who are ready to speak at length in oppo- sition to Crum.
 No dilatory motions were made to- day. but Mir Tillman insisted at all times upon the maintenance of a quo- rum.
 The Republican Senators are united in favor Of confirming Crum In order that Mir. Taft may be ra1ieved of the neaaAsitx Of Eending the nomination of anpther than Crum 10 the Senate. ,.
 The debate in the Senate. according to reports which leaked out afterward, resenbled an old-time minstrelsy. Sen- ators Tlllman, McLauren, Money and Johnston told negro dialect stories and kept the Senate in laughter throughout the proceedings. Nothing but the best of humor was displayed Senator Till- man recounted number of incidents connected with his various controver~ sles with President Roosevelt An article was read by Mir. Tillman criticislnR him for his exhibition of himself for gate recelpts.' This same article dealt with the negro question and with the Crum appointment in particular, declaring that the appoint fuent had been bad policy. Senator TllIman said there was no love lost between himself and the editor, but l that the latter had the correct Idea of the Crum appointment.
 At the outset Senator Bacon moved that the doors be re-opened and the consideration of the Crum nomination continued in legislative session. He declared that the subjects involved in this appointment were too important 1 to be disposed of in secret and that the country should be informed of the debate. His motion was put to vote and defeated on strictly party lines. The reading of an article written by MT. Taft declaring that the South should not be treated as a conquered country was begun by Mir. Tillman. but the debate led off Into other channels before he had an opportunity to com clude.
 Speeches were made by Senators Car ter and Beverldge, commenting on the prosperity of the South and giving credit to Republican rule.
 Senators Tillman and McLaurin com batted the proposition that Republican rule had anything to do with 1t and asserted that 1t was white supremacy in the South which had accomplish ed practically all of the progress.
 It was not decided whether the nom- nation will again be taken up tomor- row but 1t Is expected the fight will be resumed at the next executive ses- 1 sion.

 Fourth, it makes a dangerous preee- Ijent, humiliates Tennessee and lowers the place of dignity she has occupied as one of the proudest and most con servative states of the union.

 OH nt Jefferson City, Mo, Feb. s.--Attorney- General Major today filed in the Su- preme Court of the State a suggestion that if the court decides to have a hearing on the motion filed yesterday by the Standard Oil Company of fn- diana. the State be allowed to be repre- sented. either in oral arguments or by filing q brief. s.e>+
 The document does not reveal the ex- act stand to be taken by the State, but it is thought the Attorney General will endeavor to have enforced tfe points agreed upon in last nights conference of the case at the Executive Mansion. Attorney General Major intimated to- night that he would recommend to the Supreme Court, if asked by that tribun- al, that the Standard oil ConIpany's fine be doubled and that the company be aI- lowed to continue business in the State under State supervision. so that the prices could not be raised to make up for the fine.
 Governor Hadley. 1t is learned. be- lieves a fine larger than S10O,000 should be imposed, but both agree that the company must be kept under State su- pervision and to do that. the plan of the company to accept management through trustee system should be ale lowed
