 MT. Littleton Is greatly encouraged by the friendly feeling toward Morse mani fested here, and is more sanguine of success now than before his arrival
 Has man been given fair trial be- fore 12 of his peers, in accordance with his constitutional rights, when it Is known that one of the 12 who passed upon his guilt or innocence was intellectually lead is the question upon which the fight Is to be made through habeas corpus proceedings to secure the release of Morse

POLICE CAPTURE
 THE WRONG MAN Attempt at Suicide Puts Off
 cers on False Trail INNOCENCE IS PROVEN Search for POstoffice Robber Continues in New York Where Man Escaped Who Was Implicated in the
 Richmond Robbery
INNOCENCE IS PROVEN

Baltimore, March 31.-Postoffiee inspec- tors, secret service men and local de- tectives for a time today believed they had made an important capture in con nection with the recent robberies com mitted at the Richmond, Va, postoffice. On tip that o. B. Tate of Richmond was here and probably knew something of the robbery the man was hunted up at the residence of relative.
 Before the arrival of the officers, how ever, Tate had attempted to commit sui- eide, it is alleged, taking a quantity of creosote. He was closely questioned by Postoffice Inspector Hoote, Captain Wright of the United States secret serv- ice and other officers, and his replies were so contradictory that he was finally arrested and taken to police headquarters. The inquisition was continued and Tate narrated a story of domestic trouble that together with information concerning him and the robbery that had been obtained from other cities there was no connec- ton and convinced the officers he was not implicated in the crime and he was released. Tate's alleged attempt upon his life was frustrated by prompt action of physicians

ional committee other persons than those

sional committee other persons than those who could qualify under the above brand of democracy should be allowed to vote in the primary and the said committee declared that in the election for con- gressman in the Seventh district the state committee had no authority to fix aualifi- cations of voters and declared that in the May primary other persons than those named by the state committee should and
 would be allowed to vote. "To fix qualifications of those persons voting for congressman different from the requirements of those voting for other
 candidates on the same state ticket is
 manifestly an impossibility.
 After comforting with Chairman Hool of the Seventh district committee, I accepted his suggestion that if agreeable to candi-
 dates for Congress in that district would raise no objection to the congressional com mittee printing it's ballots and running it's primary for congressman. MT. Bur nett, I understand. accepted this view, also, as the best course.
 'I have not refused to print on the
 state ticket MT. Burnett's name, nor that
 of any other candidate for Congress
 No candidate has qualified with me for congressman from the Seventh district Mir Burnett withdrew from me his check covering assessment, which, at his re- quest, I am holding, subpect to his or der.
 q advised him that if he qualified with me I would call the committee together that they might give instructions as to
 the method to be adopted in holding cleo
 ton in Seventh district.
 'The time for entries for candidates is closed. No candidates having qualified for
 congressman from the Seventh district
 there is no conflict and no question for me to decide. The moot question of commit tee authority can be decided at some other time.
