Chief of Detectives George A. Sheets
was the star witness in the course of the
taking of evidence yesterday. Sheets de-
MED in toto the accusations made by Dris-
kell that a confession was wrung from
him by means of duress intimidation and
cruelty while he was in the city Jail after
the murder of Special Officer c. G. Riley.
Sheets withstOOd gruelling cross-exam-
nation by the attorneys for Driskeil and
emerged seemingly the victor.
I'm the course of my ten years with the
police department of Salt Lake. said Mr..
Sheets, I have never misuSed pris-
Oner. In the line of securing evidence to
meet the ends of justice ] have 1reyer re-
sorted to other than conversation and pit
ting my wits against that of the pris-
oner.
''Driskeil was never misused TO my
knowledge while he was in the city jail;
in fact, he was treated with all the con-
sideratiOn his case warranted. He made
the confession that he had robbed young
Nebeker, and also that he had killed Of
ficer Riley of his own vOlitiOn.'
At a juncture while Chief of Detectives
Sheets was giving his testimony an eff
fort was made by counsel for the defense
to impeach his evidence by reference to
matters personal, but Judge Lewis
promptly ruled the cross examination out

Majority Leader Payne, before the nom-
nations We're made. appealed to all of
the 1913 members to act as Republicans
without regard to any schism. He APP
pealed for harmony, united Republican
ism and characterized any division with
in the party as unfair and needless. So
far as he was concerned. he said. he
was in favor of putting one ''insurgent'
on the rules committee. He declared luis
opposition 10 any state. and insisted
ybody-"regular' and 'insurgeht"
alike-haye fair chance.
During the early hours of the caucus
Speaker Cannon spent the time in his
room reading newspapers. He felt that
his presence in the caucus might be mis-
interpreted. Shortly after o'clock, how
ever, he made up his mind to enter.

ing, except Mr.. Gardner of Massaehu-
sets, who was i'll. Mr.. Currier OF New
Hampshire, chairman of the majority
caucus, took the chair and Mr.. Loudeh-
slayer of New Jersey acted as secre-
tary.
Mr. Tawney of Minnesota, who had
been acting as intermediary between the
two Republican factions, presented

majority to get together and select the
men suggested. The slate follows:
Messrs Smith OF Iowa; Dalzell, Penn
sylvania; Fassett. New York; Boutell,
Illinois; Lawrence, Massachusetts,; Smith,
California.
Previous to the caucus the insurgents"
held a meeting, at which several MEM
bers opposed both DalZell and Fassett
and agreed to contest their selection. At
the same time they agreed they would
abide by the result.
The Pennsylvania member was objected
to for his long association on the COM
rnittee with Speaker Cannon and because
he had presented on the floor many of
the rules regarded as particularly Obnox-
ious Fassett was in disfavor because of
his vitriolic arraignment of the 'insur-
gents" Mr.. Hubbard of Iowa made
speech advocating a secret ballot to elect
the six members. Assent to the propo-
sition was refused by Mr.. Tawney, who
said his slate did not call for the cleo

Mr. Mccall of Massachusetts,, ''it Is not
regarded as democratic to bring in a
slate" His attitude was one OF rebuke
for those who were attempting to con-
troll the caucus and he was cheered loud
" by many members.
It was then suggested by Mr.. Payne
of New York the Republican floor lead
er, that nominations be made and that
an informal ballot be taken, each menu
Der voting for six men. This plan was
applauded by all insurgents" and not a

viva vOce vote. Mr.. Tawney withdrew
his slate and nominations were ordered.
