BANKS MAY GO AFTER SCALP OF
 SHERIFF HAWLEl
Intimates that He Holds Proxy to Sherif's Con- vention and May Decide to Oppose Denomination of Haw1ey.
Fairfield Man Inclines to View that Judson Has Him Beaten In 25th Sena- torial Fight, But Frie1lds Think Differently.

The battle in the 18th senatorial district for the nomination of sena- tor between Judge Elmore S. Banks and States Attorney Stiles Judson will be decided next Saturday at 10 o'clock in the morning at the Strat- ford town hall. The Judson men claim to have 21 out of the 36 votes in the convention. Judge Banks said this morning that indications favored the nomination of his Stratfdrd op- ponent. The supporters of Banks say that his name will be placed in noni- nation and that the fight will not be ended until the votes are counted; and some of them wink slyly and say don't bet any money that Banks won't be the choice of the conven- tion.'
 Judge Banks was asked this morn ing if he intended to go to the coun- -ty convention to be held on Sept. 20, at Republican headquarters in this city for the purpose of nominating candidate for sheriff. Prominent Re- publicans have been declaring of late scalp of Sheriff Hawley who is seek ing renomfnatiOn.
 Judge Banks said, 'I don't know whether will go or not. I have a will not be for any part the sheriff has played in politics, against my nomination as alleged. It will be because I have something of more vention will want to discuss the situation from a party standpoint. First will bring tec the attention of the delegates the possibility of sue cess or defeat. Secondly Twill have something to say about the manner that the office and business of the the office of sheriff is conducted.
 -tAs a party man believe no man is bigger than his party. No man has a right to say to his party nom mate me- at a time when the trend of public opinion seems to point to his defeat.
 s.But as I said before, I may not go to the convention"

Trenton, N. J., Sept. 12.-For the first time in the history of New Jer- sey the voters of both parties at the statewide primaries tomorrow, will be permitted to express their choice for a. United States Senator. Party leaders differ widely in their inter pretation of the effect or the law which is permissive only. United States Senator Kean, whose successor will be named by the next legisla- ture, and one of his strongest rivals, David Bacid, the South Jersey leader, refused. to become candidates. They argued that the new law does not carry binding instructions to 1egisla- tive candidates and that a legislator may vote for whom he chooses. Tn eN prefer to take chances with the legis- lature-

Special to The Far1ner)


 Hartford, Sept. 12!-''I have carried the delegates at large in 24 out of 35 senatorial districts,'' said Everett J. Lake, Republican candidate for the gubernatorial nomination, today. My canvass shows 371 delegates in the convention to 209 for Mr. Goodwin, and believe there is no doubt of my nomination" @
 Asked if, in the event of his nom ination, Col. M. H. Rogers of this city will receive the nomination for secretary of state. MT. Lake said:
 I have heard of no candidate against him.
 The attitude of the former Iieuten- ant governor reflected a cheerful op- tiTniSm and he seemed like a man whose work is onpleted and who is certain of the result.
 The Courant, which is pro Goodwin, continues to put out returns which are widely different from those given out at Lake headquarters. The Cour- ant claims SIS for Goodwin and 262 for Lake. Goodwin's majority, ac- cording to the same authority is 56 and a change of 30 delegates would turn the scale.
 the Courant predictions are to be re- ceived at heavy discount in view of the result in Hartford, which Lake carried hands down, although. the newspapers there had indicated a, con trary result.
 ! The delegates have already begun to arrive. Most of them will be on the result will be Known. T The Bridgeport delegation is expect ed to stand to On the rival guber- material candidates. !

 London, Sept. 12-Because an under pelled to use enormous quantities of earbo1ie acid to counteract the odors of decaying flesh while removing the body from the cellar of the Crippen home the acquittal of pr. H. H. Grip pen for the murder of his wife may be forced.
 When the inquest over the body taken from the Crippen cellar was re- sunled today, Attorney Arthur New ton, counsel for Crippen and the Len eve girl, grilled the undertaken and inorgue keeper who took charge of the body with a series of sharp questions. He tried to show that they shoveIed the remains into a box. taking little care to keep dirt and stones separate. Both men denied this. saying there was neither stones nor dirt in the cof- in when 1t was taken to the morgue- was a great deal of carbolic acid used and said they had to use it in order to approach where the body was bur jed
 It was plain from the questions that Newton put to these two witnesses that he hopes to demonstrate that the testimony of the chemists that hyoscin poisoning caused the death of the per- son whose body was taken from the Crippen cellar was a conclusion that could not have been reached by an analysis. He apparently was laying the foundation to impeach the possi- bility that a satisfactory analysis could have taken place and to show that the carbohc acid used ruined the body for the purposes of analysis.
 When the fnodest was opened today Coroner Schroeder was in charge. The interests of the Crown were looked af- ter by Inspector Dew, Detective Ser Humphreys, while Newton looked aft CT the interest of the accused Neither
