Mir. Winsor in reply advanced the extraordinary proposition that the initiative and referendum provision itself was a guaranty against Hitter acy at the polls Voters who could not read could not vote intelligently, and therefore would not try to vote at all.
 There were several more speeches directed mostly against the Cobb amendment in which was elOquently pictured the injustice that it proposed to inflict upon Mexican citizens whose only fault was a misfortune-they had never learned English. Many of them had blazed the trails. making it pos sible to settle the territory The re- publicans. by the way. took no part in the debate The Cobb amendment was defeated by a vote of IA to 3O, the republicans voting with the ma jority.
 Then MT Wood offered an amend ment embodying the suggestion of Mir. Curtis. It proposed that the educational qualification mentioned in section ? should not apply to those who possess the right to vote on the adoption of this constitution"
 DWanted Something Worse.
 The foreseen thereupon happened Mir Winsor and the others who had desired the elimination of the educa- tional qualification provision attacked the Wood amendment with bitterness. and though their language was guard ed. their opposition meant this They would not consent to the engrafting of this fair educational qualification proposition upon the constitution and thereby prevent the legislature from enacting a provision similar to the infamous section which they wanted stricken out for the present to fool congress. the president and the Mexi- can voters.
 The men who had been pleading for fairness toward the ancient Mex jeans who had blaZed the trails, and who had so feelingly portrayed their frontier sufferings that tears were observed to be starting from the eyes of the portraits of former Speakers Webb and Bailey, with which the wall is adorned. voted with a vim against the only measure of protec- ton that had yet been offered for these ancient voters. The Wood amendment was defeated as follows:
 Ayes. 14-Crutchfield. Cunniff. Gun ningham, Curtis. Eliinwood. Hutchin- son. Jacome, Jones of Yavapai. Lang don. Moore, Parsons, Pusch, Scott, Wood.

A BATTLE TUESDAY.

Chihuahua. Chihuahua, Mexico, Via Fl Paso Texas. Dec. 3.-The defeat of a detachment of government troops at Padernalles on Tuesday was admitted by those in authority here today. The government is without details of the fight and the reports brought in by passengers vary, one contradicting the other.
 According to the most consistent information. the government troops defeated are a band of 15O who lat the train at San Andreas nearly two weeks ago. when the coaches were attacked by the revolutionists. They escaped at that time and up to Tuesday have been moving west. gaining food and water in precarious fashion. Hunger, it is said, drove them to Padernalles, iwhere the in- surrectionists are known to be. The revolutionists by long range fire drew them close to the village, where the former were attacked in force.
 Two officers at the head were killed and a number of soldiers. re ported from nine to twenty, were also slain. Several prisoners were cap tured and are said to have followed the Latin American custom of join ing the enemy. Governor Sanchez explained to the Associated Press to- day. that owing to the death of the officers, he is without reliable ad- vices
 Every mining and business man who arrived here yesterday and to- day agrees on certain points, that the revolutionists are gaining in strength. and that they are we'll of ficered and treat all foreigners with the greatest consideration, and that

SYNOPSIS OF THE CASE.

Louisville, Ky, Dec. 3.-The Jury was given the case at ego D. m. and the announcement of the verdict came at 1O:10 D. m. Vending was talking to his wife when the verdit was an- nOunced. He remained perfectly calm.
 T either killed the little girl or I did not" said Vending. "They should either send me to the electric chair or turn me free"
 The verdict came after a day spent in argument by the attorneys and the reading of instructions by Judge Greg ory. Although there were four pOssi- ble verdicts the jury might have re- turned under the instructions of the court. the verdict was merely murder"
 The evidence presented against Vending was purely ciroumstantial. Since his arrest and throughout the trial he has denied any knowledge of the fate of the girl Witnesses testi- fled. however. that Vending was seen at the church on the morning Alma Kellner went there to mass.
 Alma was the daughter of MT. and Mrs. Fred Kellner of this city and a niece of Frank Fehr. a millionaire brewer. who spent much time and money in a search for the child and in the prosecution of Vending.
 Alma was last seen at St. Johnson's church December S. 1909. where she had gone to mass. When she failed to re- turn to her home after several hours, the family became alarmed and notified the police. They first believed that the child had been kidnapped and numer- ous reward were offered.
 On May 90 the mutilated body of the child was found in the cellar under the music room of the church. The body was accepted by the Kellner family as that of their child Circumstantial evil dence pointed to Vending. tke former church janitor. who disappeared Janu- ary IA, as the murderer. A search was started and led to Ned orleans and through Texas to California. where he was captured June 90. the arrest be- ing made in San Francisco.
 Chief of Detectives Carney of this city. who personally conducted the search for Vending. had almost given it up when he located Mrs. Cora Munea. a milliner of Hume. Mo. Vending was known to Mrs. Munea in Houston, Tex, where he proposed marriage to her.
 MrS. Muned ueflleu any knOWleuSe OI Vending. but on visit to her Carney fOuhd a postcard Vending had mailed from California. Carney telegraphed the information to the San Francisco police and the arrest followed. once back in Louisville, the attorneys for Vending. who is a Frenchman, att tempted to have the case tried in fed eral court with six of his own country men on the ury. The federal court sent the case to the state courts. The trial began on Mondoy and has been one of the most celebrated held in this state.

ONLY PAYERS MAY VOTE
On Questions Involving the Laying of
 Financial Burdens.

Another thing on the program to make the constitution less offensive both at home and abroad was done in the morning The taxation bill pro vided among other things that the indebtedness of cities and towns should not exceed more than 4 per cent of their assessed valuation, but it was further provided that the limit might be taken off by a two thirds vote of all qualified voters. The ab- sence of a property qualification, 1t was later believed, would invite the opposition of a large class of voters at the polls. and it was arranged the day before that that defect should be remedied on third reading.
 It was done on the amendment of Judge Doe, who was ignorant of the purpose of the scared majority. He opposed the proposition in it's present form for several reasons. He believed it would imperil the chances of the and he was certain that it would detract from the value of any bonds that might be issued under such an indiscriminate voting sys- tenn.
 JuuSS LUG dihSHuiicht PiN'iN0u that only property taxpayers were qualified to vote at bond and tax elections. but that a mere majority should prevail
 The amendment was opposed by MT. Cunniff, who said that the pro- vision was democratic There had formerly been property qualifications for voters on all propositions. but they had been eliminated one by one until now only this vestige of the Hamiltonian principle remained. It remained for Arizona to wipe it out Mir. Cunniff was supported by Messrs. Jones of Maricopa and Jones of Yav-
