son is in the shadow Of the gallows.
Under the name OF Edward ]. Mac

the prisoner has admitted that Mac
Donald is not his correct name. He has
also told them that his father is eighty
eight years of age, ard that he would die
rather than let the father know he Is ac-
cused of murder.
Attorneys James Kelly and Robert l..
Montague, who are representing the prts-
oner. have interviewed him several times,

identity.
Attorney Kelly said today that Mac

under an assumed name both while serv-
ing in the United States army and since
he came to Washington and married
Gertrude Shaw Mr.. Kelly said he had
learned from a former soldier Of the
United States army, who had served in
the Philippines with the prisoner. that
his name was either George Gillette or
George elliott
Macdonald declares his father is a
resident OF Rensselaer,, n. and that he
had two brothers in the hotel business on

give their names.

cate relatives of the man in an effort to
acquaint them OF the serious charge
against him.

BLAME FOR CIVIL WAR
NOT WITH THE SOUTH
Senator BaiIey's Address in
EuIogy of Jefferson Davis.
Slavery Discussed.

Declaring that. although the slavery
problem was solved, the race question
was not, and that the southern leaders
saw the outcome Of the abolition Of
slavery. Senator Joseph w. Bailey. in an
address delivered at exercises held in
commemoration Of the birthday OF Jeffer.
son Davis at Mount Vernon Place Meth
odist Episcopal Church South last even
south during the civil war.
The speaker declared that the war was
not brought on by the southern men.
IF the republicans had been as anxious
for conciliation as Mr.. Davis was that
matter would have been settled without a
war. The south did not go to war to
save the institution OF slavery" he as
states to write in her statutes prohibition
against slavery. The Confederate-the
southern-leaders realized what the aboli-
tion Of slavery meant. If they had been
left alone they would have solved 1t in
their own way-by prohibition and de.
portatiop."
Tribute to Negroes Loyalty.
Though making his position clear re-
garding the preesnt day race question.
Senator Bailey paid numerous tributes to
.he negro race for it's loyalty to the white
nan.
The speaker eulogized Jefferson Davis
''1is fame" declared the Texan senator
SIS one of the souths most priceless leg
ac.es tonight. Davis has been greatly
misunderstood. l remember hearing when
and that he brought on the war. Jeffer-
son Davis was less responsible for the
war than any other conspicuous southern
man, and he was the last to give up hopes
for reconciliation. Davis whole creed was
we will never give up this union so long
as We can remain in it in safety and
honor !"
The audience, which crowded the
church until standing room was at pre-
MUM, applauded almost every remark
In some instances reaching the cheering
point. The mere mention of Jefferson
Davis name was enough to bring forth
cheers. The announcement that James A
Jones, the old body servant Of Davis
was present was the signal for a great
ovation. which did not subside until the
man arose, so he could be seen by all
present.
He is the only man who knows where
the seal Of the Confederate states rests. .
said Mr.. Bailey, land he won't tell be-
cause he promised Davis he wouldn't
