PARTIES ARE DIVIDED
LEADERS HAVE LITTLE HOPE OF
RESTORING MORE THAN SUR
FACE HARMONY AT PRESENT.
Storms Ahead in Extra Session Of
Congress, There Being Virtually
Four Parties, Each With Large
Representation, Working Very
Much at Odds.

Washington.-It is daily becoming
manifest that congress is facing a
stormy session, and there can be no
forecast of the probabilities.
The fact that both of the great DO
litical parties are divided Is no
longer denied, and the leaders appear
to have little hope of restoring more
than surface harmony.
There are virtually four parties,
each with large representation,
working at odds, in the present ses-
sion The Republican minority of the
house is divided between regulars and
insurgents, as was evidenced by the
vote on the speakership contest.
The breach between these two fac
tons is even wider in the Republican
majority OF the senate.
sharp line has been drawn be-
tween the conservative Democrats of
the senate, who are opposed to any
attempt at dictation by William ].
Bryan, and the progressive Demo
Gratis including practically all the new
members and several veterans like
Senator Stone of Missouri, who are
Bryan adherents. The house Demo.
cratic majority seems to have es-
capped break, but the leaders fear
the party contest in the senate may
at any time spread to the other
branch. The situation has interfered
with the selection of committees and
the beginning Of legislative work.
Possibly there never has been a
congress where so much uncertainty
existed and where the uneasiness has
been so equally distributed between
the two major political parties. Of
course this is due in part to the fact
that in the present congress the DEM
ocrats are in power in the house and
the Republicans are in control OF the
senate.
The real cause Of the anxiety is be-
lieved to be the proximity of the
party conventions which will select
the standard bearers for 1912, and the
knowledge that slip by either in the
extraordinary session of the regular
session may determine the result Of
the next national campaign.

ed. The State holds that the date
"December l." was "blind.'
The defence contended that the
State failed to produce any witness
who would swear that Mrs. Hayes
did the killing.
"MoIes" Not in Evidence.
"Moles!" That word was heard at
almost every turn during the day.
Evidently Mrs. Hayes had recovered
from this affliction, for by a reason9-
bly, close inspection Of her face IN
the court house today, there is not an
apparent trace of a mole on her face

Floyd was at Tabor to treat these
moles that, as Mrs. Hayes said in her
letter, "were getting dangerous" j." The
dates of the three letters are also in

One Of the really interesting occur

I promptu speeches made by Attorney
Schulken, of the defence, while argu-
ing against the admission of the coro-
ner's testimony as to what Mrs. Hayes
had said on examination at the in
quest. He upbraided the manhood OF
Tabor for allowing woman, a frail
woman, to be up on the witness stand
without legal advice and testify
against herself: that these good men
of Tabor should have befriended her
instead of "miserable wretch, as ii
may be brought out later"
