TO REFORM ENGLISH

People Aroused by Acts Of Pres.

London, April 29.-Unjust sentences
meted out by lay magistrates of the
country gentlemen class have result
ed in the recommendation by a par
liamentary commission that hence
forth candidates for appointment to
judgeship shall undergo an examina-
ton, that all classes of the community
shall be represented on the bench and
that politics shall not enter into ap-
pointments.
This recommendation will shortly
be submitted to parliament and it is
predicted 1t will pass.
The Bullock case, where the twelve
year-old son of well-to-do parents was
officially fogged and sentenced to six
years in the reformatory for stealing
lump of coal, started the country on
the crying need for relief from mis-.
carriage of justice,

purpose Of the recommendations is to
shut out the old fashioned Tory land.

poaching and petty thefts than for

exception the members Of these

THREW POISON
INTO The SNOW
Witness Saw DR.. Hyde Dis

PORTION IS RECOVERED

Fragments of Drug Picked Up and
Sent to Chicago, Where Chemists
Found Traces of Poison in Them.
Jury Not to Re Informed That De-
fendant's Bond Has Been Declared
Cancelled.
Kansas City, April 29.-Thomas H.
Swope, Jr., told in the criminal court
bow he found capsules which DIR.
Hyde had thrown away on street
and recognized the odor they emitted
as cyanide of potassium.
While working in Nevada mine,
said Mr.. Swope, he became well ac-
quainted with the poison and was posi-
tive he could not be mistaken about
the peculiar odor of it. Cyanide, he
said, smelled like burned almonds
DR.. Hyde was about 800 feet from
him when the capsules were thrown
away, said Mr.. Swope. The physician
stamped them into the snow after
dropping them, testified the witness.
In SO far as Mr.. Swope knew, DR..
Hyde did not know his actions were
observed by anyone.
Accompanied by John G. Paxton,
said Mr.. Swope, he made second
visit to the point where he had seen
DR. Hyde and they found fragments of
three capsules. All of the parts of the
capsules were sent to Chicago and
chemists announced they found traces
of cyanide in them.

on the hand of Mr.. Swope after he
had handled the capsules he picked

Judge Latshaw ordered that at all

of the presence of the jury in order
that the jurymen might not know he
is in the custody of the authorities
The action of the court pleased Mrs
Hyde. She smiled when the order
was given.
This order followed the revocation
Of DR.. Hyde's 100000 bond by the
court and the defendant was remand
ed to the custody of the sheriff. In
| making this order the court said:
"In view OF the testimony thus far
given in this trial, the court is con
strained to say that it amounts to a
presumption of guilt that under the
law deprives the defendant of the
right to go on bond"

Governors Idea of Convention Endors-
ing a Candidate for United States
Senator Wins by ss8Ia to 8581a.
John w. Kern Leads Field of Ten
for the Position on the First Ballot.
Indianapolis. April 29.-By vote of
8SSa to S5S1a the Indiana Democratic
convention adopted the proposition
presented by Governor Marshall that
the convention should endorse a can
didate for the United States senate.
The names of ten candidates were
presented to the convention when
nominations for United States senator
were asked for.
On the first ballot Marion county
stood by Taggart, giving him 1T of it's
votes and Kern 6. When the result
of the first ballot was announced
hern led with 303 votes, Taggart was
second with 22S. There are 1,747 in
the convention, STA being necessary to
a choice.
Governor Marshall called the con-
vention to order and resigned the
gavel to Charles T. Jewett of New AL
bany. The proposition whether or not
the convention should endorse a candi-
date for the senate then was present
ed Debate was limited to forty-five
minutes on each side. James E. Nc
Cullough of the Sixth district declared
that the convention should follow the
counsel of Governor Marshall and
William ]. Bryan and endorse a can
didate.
Samuel Ralston of Lebanon followed
for the opposition He said that to
endorse a candidate for the senate
would be usurpation of the powers of
the Legislature.
Great Confusion During Debate.
During the closing arguments there
was great confusion in the convention
and the police were requested to clear
the aisles, which were filled with ex-
cited delegates. Thomas Taggart min
gled with his delegates from Indian
apolis and Marion county and urged
them to keep quiet Balloting on the
proposition by counties then followed
and resulted in the approval of the
Marshall plan.
A riot was threatened when a dele
gate from Marion county assaulted a
delegate from Terre Haute. Police
separated the combatants.
The platform as adopted contains
the following plank on the tariff:
1--WE denounce the Payne-Aldrich
tariff act as masterpiece Of injustice,
involving remorseless exactions from
the many to enrich the few, through
the trusts and monopolies which it
fosters. Tariff taxation, like other tax
alton, should be for public purposes
only and not for private profit; and
should be SO levied as not to discrim-
mate against any section, class, indus
try or occupation, and limited to the
actual necessities of the government
economically administered"
