TO ESCAPE ASYLUM
Where a Hamilton Woman
Thought She Was to Be
Sent, Burns Herself.
NOT EXPECTED TO LIVE

Hamilton, O., March 16.-Fearing
her relatives intended placing her in
an insane asylum, Mrs. Edna Summer
ton, 222 Erwin street, after writing a
suicidal letter, deliberately arranged
for the death of herself and husband,
Harry Summerton, bartender, in a
frightful manner.
During the early morning hours, the
woman placed cans of gasoline and
coal oil about her bed. saturated the
bedclothes with the inflammable ma
terial and at $40 yesterday touched
a lighted match to the bedclothes as
she lay beneath them.
Summerton was dragged from his
room by the firemen almost suffocat-
ed from the dense smoke. He then
endeavored to break into his wife's
room. On breaking open the door,
Mrs. Summerton, her thin garments a
mass of flame, jumped from her bed
and sprang out of a second story win
dow, falling upon picket fence. She
was hurried to Mercy Hospital and is
not expected to live.
The suicidal letter was saved from
the flames by Detective Ruble and
reads:
Dear Harry. My Beloved Husband
! know what they intend doing with
me, and rather than go there, will
prefer death. Take my insurance poll
cy; 1t is paid until today. l have al
ways tried to do what is right, but l
have too many relatives who are jeal-
x~R
dear to me and / hope we will meet
in another world. God bless you Har-
ry. SO dear to me. l am going to kill
myself. Bury me in Greenwood"
Her home is in Jacksonburg. Ohio.

structIon on the republican ticket
promises to be one of the hottest of
the republican state convention.
There are three candidates in the
field, namely s. c. Terrell of Shelby
ville;' Horace Ellis of Vincennes and
John Carr. Of Indianapolis, superin-
tendent of the Marion county schools.
Every one of these candidates is ac-
tive in the race now. Mr.. Terrell was
in the city yesterday accompanied by
Sid Conger of Shelbyville, former
president of the state board of agri.
culture and one of the powers in the
republican party. Mr.. Terrell is count
ing much on his experience. He was
formerly a superintendent of county
schools and is now superintendent OF
| the Shelbyville public schools. He
also served on the committee with r
| }. Alley, present state superintendent
| when lot of leaks in the school
fund on account of unpaid fines were
stopped.
Il realize" said Mr. Terrell. that
the candidate of the republicans fol-
| state superintendent should be a
strong man for he will have strong
| opponent in Mr.. Alley on the democra
tic ticket. If I thought there was
in the party any man who would
| make better race than |, l would
get out of the race in his favor
Mr.. Carr of indianapolis was form
erly a teacher in the Manual Train
ing high school. 1t is understood tina,
he will have the 1873 delegates OF
Marion county behind him. He ex
poets also to draw strength from the
northern part of the state as both OF
his opponents in the race come from
the southern half of the state.
1t is more than likely that the ques
ton OF uniform text books will be
brought into the race for state super
intendent. This was a live question
in the last session OF the legislature
and it is probable that a candidate
who would not express his views in
favor of uniform text books would
not stand much of a show for the
nomination.
1t Is now asserted that Charles F.
Remy will not be a candidate for the
republican nomination for secretar,
of state. This leaves the republicans
without probability for this office
except John Morris an attorney o.
Fort Wayne who is now talked of fol
the place. Mr.. Morris belongs to the
law firm of Breene and Morris and i
is said that if he gets into the race
he will have pretty solid backing
1t is expected that it will be known
before the end of the week whether
Mr.. Morris will get into the race
Joseph Oliver of South Bend also i!
being talked of for this nomination
Mr.. Oliver it is believed would ado
strength to the ticket as he is vel
known business man and is not ;
politician.

Did Marshall Open Big Breach
His Suggestion for Nomination for Senator in Convention Is
Both Favored and Vigorously Opposed.

ed over the state when he failed to land
the senatorship.
The point to all of the argument is,
that there is no other man in the state
whom the democratic state convention
could we'll indorse and that the adop-
ton of the plan of the governor would
be one of the best things that could
happen for Mr.. Kern.
Those who favor the plan say, that
its very greatest advantage is the fact
that it will mean the nomination of
the strongest man and the one who is
most acceptable to the people for the
| United States senatOrship, and that
that will be as it should be. If Mr..
Kern is the biggest man in the party,
and is the choice of the convention,
then he is the man to make the race.
| If some other man is the choice of the
delegates to the convention. then he
| is the man to make the race for the
place.
| Those who favor the plan declare al
so. that the nomination of candidate
| for United States senatorfand the set
Element of the question as to whom
shall oppose Senator Beveridge, will

and that it will more than offset any
! losses which might come to the party
| through the fact that all of the candi-
dates save one. would be eliminated
| at the time of the convention.
! It is understood that when the mat
ter comes up in the democratic con-
vention there will be insistence that
it shall be voted on by the delegates
by congressional districts. The sew
enth district which is composed of
Marion county will have 1S3 delegates
, in the convention. Mr.. Taggart not
being enthusiastic for the plan prob
ably would be able to turn the sew
enth district delegation away from 1t.
1t is expected however. that it will
| be largely the country districts that
will stand by the plan to the finish.
| There has been a feeling on the
part of some of the people in the
country that too much fixing up in
politics has been going on in India
napolis anyhow. In the fight it I'M
doubtedly will develop that the coun-
try districts will remain with the gov
ernor.
| The discussion of the governor S
plan has become so widespread
among the democrats that little is
heard about candidates for state Of
fices. His plan has the limelight and
it is expected to hold it until the con-
yention date rolls around

Indianapolis, March 1.-two i'm
cratic politics are now practically set
tied. One is that the plan of the gov
ernor for having the state convention
nominate the candidate of the party
for United States senator will come
before the convention, and the other is
that it will be sternly opposed.
Although the announcement of the
governor that he favors such plan
is only one day old, it has much oppo-
sition already. 1t is also having a
firm defense on the part of the COVER
nor and his friends, including John E.
Lamb of Terre Haute. who is an avow-
ed candidate for United States senator
and who, as stated yesterday, has in
dorsed the governors plan. Another
development is that John w. Kern,
who made the race for United States
senator last winter. has also been
brought into the question as an issue.
Those who oppose the plan do not
charge that it has been brought for
ward with a view to boosting Mr.. Kern
into the senatorship. but they do say
that If the plan were adopted, it would
mean that Mr.. Kern would be the next
United States senator from Indiana
provided the legislature is democratic

arms. seemed to be addressing to each
in turn an impassioned harangue. The
audience began to wonder who the
new actor was and what on earth he
was doing in a play in which neither
Shakespeare nor the stage managers
ever intended him to appear.
Presently came the time when II
