FEARED INSANITY
KILLS SELF AND BABE

New York, July Haunted by the
fear that she was going insane, Mrs.
Jeanne Hodgson Catlett gave cyanide
of potassium to her two months old
daughter yesterday afternoon and
swallowed a draught of the poison
herself. Both lay dead on the same
bed when the husband came home
last night.
Beside the young mother lay a
long letter to the husband, saying:
Don't think me cruel to the little
life l have made but rather that / am
saving her so much pain, for bodily
pain is nothisg to this that is either
insanity or nervousness-only God
knows-which she would surely in
herit. Don't mourn for me. | wish
| could go on with just you and our
love. My very life is one continuous
thought of thankfulness for it, but my
mind must be relieved. The tension
is frightful."
Evidently there were moments when
the young mother yearned to spare
her daughter, for farther down she
wrote: IF l leave our baby, telr her
/ kissed her with lots of love and /
am so sorry ever to have been cross
to her. Leave my locket on me, but
wear my wedding ring. I have loved
it so and caressed and kissed it.

UNTRUE.

Nahant. Mass, July Ia vigorous
declaration that he had not injected
himself into the New York state po-
litical situation to the extent of en-
deayoring to persuade Governor
Hughes to make a third gubernatorlal
campaign was made yesterday by Mr..
Roosevelt following his visit to Pres

of Mr.. Roosevelt was called to a
statement printed in a morning news

ing Mr.. Hughes yesterday that the
governor was the only man who could
save New York state to the republ
can party.
1T is wholly untrue. Utterly pre-
posterous. never said any such a
thing. There is not a word of truth

HARVARD TAKES
ALL THREE RACES
VARSITY EIGHT WINS BY FIVE
LENGTHS-TURNS OUT
FAST CREWS.

New London, July 1.-The setting
sun could not tinge the waters OF the
Thames last evening with a deeper
crimson than they had been by the
victories of the three Harvard crews.
Harvard met Yale yesterday in the
44th annual rowing regatta. Five
lengths was Harvard's margin OF sue
cess in the varsity eight Dared race,
three lengths in the freshmen eight,
and four lengths in the varsity four
The freshman four race won by Yale
Wednesday evening, was the one
sweet drop in Yale's cup of defeat.
Time-Varsity eight; Harvard 20:-
46k, Yale 21:O4. (Four miles down
stream.)
Varsity four-Harvard 13:oO8;
Yale 1918.
Freshman eight-Harvard 11:451a;
Yale 1902. Both up stream two
miles.)
Harvard's big eight averaged seven
pounds per man heavier than Yale's
and one inch taller.
The big race was another demon
stration of the cleyerness of Jim
Wray, Harvard coach, in turning out
fast crews composed of big men. The
Harvard crew averaged 179 pounds.

DECISIVE DEFEAT
FOR ROOSEVELT
NEW YORK ASSEMBLY KILLS
COBB DIRECT NoMlNA-
TON BILL.
SENATE FAILS TO CONE TO voTE
ANOTHER SPECIAL SEES
SION LIKELY.

Albany, N. " July Theodore
Roosevelt was beaten decisiyely yes
terday. He met defeat fiatfooted at
the hands OF the republican organiza-
ton in the assembly. At late hour
the senate had not made up its mind
Indications were that the session
might continue the greater part of the
night.
The Cobb direct nomination bill was
killed in the assembly yesterday after
moon after hard fight The final
count. so to 63, was in favor of ac-
rtsepting the adverse report of the judi
/, .oiaryN committee. The republicans in
the senate held caucus last night
but only 20 were there. They voted
to make party measure of the Cobo
bill, with the amendments proposed
by Lloyd G. Griscom, chairman Of the
New York county republican commit
tee and favored by Mr.. Roosevelt. 1t
takes &c votes to pass the bill in the
senate, so the situation is not cleared.
The senate went into session and at
midnight no vote was in sight. There
was talk of still another special SEES
sion but the as emily yesterday ar
ternoon voted to adjourn this after
noon. If the senate concurs and the
legislature quits work with no prl-
mary bill passed, the leaders say
Governor Hughes may call it back
again. From the moment Mr.. Roose-
welt sent a telegram to Griscom, urg-
ing the passage of the bill, things
hummed. The situation suddenly be-
came one regarded as of national sig
nifcance.
Gov Hughes returned from Boston
last night but had nothing to say.
Speaker Wadsworth frankly was
glad at the turn things had taken.
He said:
The action OF the assembly should
not be construed as a gratuitous slap
at the ex-president or the government.
The assembly feels that it gave the
fullest and most deliberate cons1dera-
ton to primary reform at the regular
session.
The supreme issue is whether tse
assembly shall swallow its convictions
and deliberately reverse its honest
judgment, and thereby announce to
legislatures in the future that the leg
islative branch of the government sup
posedly Independent, can be coerced
and forced to occupy a secondary po-
sition in our system of government.
It is a question far beyond that of
the merits or dement's of direct prl-
maries."

BLOODY WARNING
BY UNION SAILORS

Cleveland, JUL L. Wrapped around
a bottle of alcohol in which lay a
bloody human ear, Harry Couiby,
president of the Pittsburg Steamship
company received a letter here yester-
day in which he was threatened with
nameless mutilation and death if he
refuses to accede to demands of sail
ors who have been on a strike for two
years.
The man to whom the ear belonged
has been identified as Edward Frazer,
q non-union sailor, who was assaulted

the ear was severed by the assail-
ants. The man was found in dying
condition from loss of blood. Across
his chest there was pinned a paper
on which was written: Don't be a
sscab."

ear over to federal authorities and a
search has been commenced through
every port on the lakes for the per
petrators. In the letter it was stated

VIOLENT DECLINES
ON STOCK MARKET
SEEMS TO HAVE NO BOTTOM
EVEN STEEL GOES Off
UNION PACIFIC DECLINES.
SUBSTANTIAL RECOVERY AND
STRONG TONE MARKS
CLOSING DEALS.

New York, July 1.-The ebbing
tide Of the values in the stock market
began to go out yesterday morning
from the very opening with rush
that showed that the lock gates
were wide open. Great banking in
terests seemed willing to let the re-
adjustment take its course unham-
pered, and rumors that J. Pierpont
Morgan was holding a conference in
his Offices with other powerful fnan-
ciers were met with the statement
that neither Morgan nor his son mad
been to their Offices yesterday.
During the morning the market
seemed to have no bottom. An enor-
nous line of selling orders had ac-
cumulated over night, and from the
size of the blocks that came out it
seemed positive that holding pools
were dissolving. Steel common broke
through the price of 20 at which 1T
had been said it was pegged; Union
Pacific sold at a decline of 20 points
from the mark of a week ago, and
there were many other new low marks
for the season.
Late in the afternoon there was
recovery, due in part to profit IN
the taking of shorts and a lessened
volume of -trading seemed to Indicate
that an easier feeling would follow
the violent readjustment of earlier
hours. Tit total sales for the day
were 1,515,775 shares.
So violent a crash in prices is not
to be explained by usual surface
causes. Deeper causes are indicated.
Starting with the powerful artificial
stimulant for the stock market last
year, there followed an inflammation
of values in all directions, the cutting
down of the country's exports, abnor-
nal growth of imports, an era of ex-
travagance in living and in business
and Industrial methods, in modifying
of capital resources in land specula-
ton and irrigation projects at a time
when the maintenance of business &C
tivity and the carrying on of enter
prises were most in need of re-
sources.
There has been a conviction that
extensive commitments in speculative
holdings of stocks which were car
ried through the elimination of last
years rise in October have been OBJ
stinately held ever since in the faiCn
that each successive downturn In
the market was simple reaction des-
tined to be followed by a resumption
of the march of progress. The cur
rent belief is that market pools IN
volved in such holdings were being
liquidated Wednesday and yesterday
in response to an imperative admoni
ton of the authorities in the banking
and financial world, who believed the
credit position must be strengthened
and prepared for the eXigencies of the
coming fall The process proved a
painful one and involved convulsive
price adjustments.
Money on call went no higher than
SO per cent. in spite of the disturb
ance of loans connected with the days
impairment of q margins. Substantial
recovery and a strong tone of closing
was the evidence of relief afforded
by the days purging and was taken
as that the storm had spent its force,
so far as the stock market is con-
cerned.
