Senator Holt Says Wage Of

10 MAKE CHANGE IN BOARD
New Law May Reduce Number

Richmond.

Il. L is
Important changes affecting the

by Senator Saxon w. Holt, of Newport

Limitation of the number OF Rich

Board a different method of award
ing the shoe contract. and requirement
of larger remuneration for the SER
vices OF the convcts employed In man

Senator Holt said yesterday that he
understood that convicts employed by
the Davis Shoe Company at 42 cents
a day, under contract with the State,
were often retained in the employ of
the company In its other factories af-t
ter they had served their term. and
that when they had lef. the prison
they were reputed to receive a con-
siderably higher wage than that paid
by the company under the govern
mental contract.

Inview of,these facts, Senator Holt be-
lieves that the state should receive on
Its contract much higher wage rate. in
the neighborhood Of 81 or $1.25. II the
contract with the Davis Shoe Company
is renewed by the next Legislature or
by the present one, Mr.. Holt wishes
the State TO add to its alreadylow rev.
cnue by receiving the true value Of
the labor Of Its convicts. He believes
there is no reason why the State
should not receive the full amount
to which it is entitled
III favor the advertisement OF bids

The Senator from Newport News is

felt that a certain number. would al

Washington, D. c., January 1s.--
Following President Tafts advice to
the Republicans in Congress yesterday
ITO stop duarreling and get down to
the party legislative program aa
quickly as possible, there were con-
crete evidences to-day OF IA definite at
tempt to bring the warning factions

temporary understanding. There seen,-
ed for the first time this session to ba
"a spirit OF conclliation in the air, and
decidedly less of the bitterness OF the
past few weeks
President Taft let it be known that
he still considers all the insurgents as
Republicans. Speaker Cannon an
3nounced that all Republicans would lbe
invited to the caucus on naming the
EBalltnger-Pinchot committee mex.
week, and lie hoped all would attend.
Representative Hayes. OF California,
one OF the leading insurgents, made
two trips to the White House, as a re-
suit OF which he announced that at
tcmpts to adjust matters were Under
way.
In his talks, with Representative
Hayes ana other callers to-day, tho
President said that he was not with
holding patronage from any Rcpublt-
can Senator or member OF Congress
because of votes cast against Speaker
Cannon and against the rules of the
House or against the Payne-Aldrich
tariff bill.
If. however. there are any among
the insurgents who intend to carry
their fight against the Speaker and
| against the rules. to tho extent Of op-
posing purely administration and
party measures. to which the party
Is pledged, the President VIII nd
longer regard them as Republicans,
but as having clearly arrayed thent
selves against the party. Under these
circumstances, he declares he would
not be justified in recognizing any
claims for patronage from Senator's
and Representatives who would use
the very patronage given them as am
munition against the party.
Mr.. Taft is said to be satisfied with
the way matters are progressing. and
he has received many personal as
surances that most of the so.called
insurgents will support the admins
tratton measures. III

ST. Louis. Mo-. January 1s.-Con-
hrmation Of the death OF Mrs. Belle
Guinness and some details OF her
method of Staying the ten persons
found buried on her farm near
Laporte, Ind. Were published to-day
by the st. Louis Post-Dispatch, which.
in a copyrighted story, printed an al.
legged confession made by Ray Lamp
here. Mrs. Gunnesss hired man and
assistant, who died several days ago
in prison at Michigan Cfty.sInd., while
serving. sentence for burning Mrs.
Gunness's house and inctneratinE her
and her three children. and Jennie
Olson
It. is known that Rev. z. "A. Schell.
formerly pastor of the Laporte Meth
odist Church, and now president OF
Iowa Wesleyan University at Mount
Pleasant, Ia, heard Lamphere's con-
fession shortly after lie was arrested
in April, 1908. but he denies that he
divulged this confession.
The Post-Dlspatch says that If. Dr..
Schell would consent to talk he would
verify the confession published. It.
according to the paper, was obtained
from man OF unassailable character
and truthfulness, whose standing in
the community where he lives is such
that his word is accepted without
question.
According to the printed confession.
4 Jennie Olson were chloroformed by
Pamphere. who robbed tho house
OF about $50 with a woman ac-
complice; that Lamphere helped dis
pose OF some Of Mrs. Gunness's vic-
Tins; that the chloroform used by
Lamphere was part Of that he bought
| Cor Mrs. Guinness to kill three men,
one OF whom was Andrew Helgeleln
| the others probably Ole Budsberg and
! Tonnes Petersen Lien. and that ono OF
these men, probably Lien. was the
third husband of Mrs. Guinness.
! The confession recltes that Lamp.
4 here did not intend to, kill the Guinness
family, but only to asphyxiate tho
! members IN order,to rob the murderess,
who had, however, deposited large
sum in a bank the day before the fire
