Her husband-the father of the little
one-was arrested as the alleged
shooter. Hope was expressed early
this morning at the Mercy hospital for
the recovery of the woman.
When the husband. in the custody
Of officers, was taken back to the Lee
home his wife was awaiting removal
to the hospital. He, it is said, at
tempted to kiss the woman. AS he
was bending over her. it is stated, she
regained consciousness. Exerting her
feeble strength she pushed him away.
Then the following dialogue between
the two is said to have taken place:
ARREST that man." said the woman

torted, ''as I have given myself up"

the wounded woman, kissed his child
several times before he was taken to
the police station to be locked up on
the technical charge Of being a sus-

for the removal of the bullet from
the right side of her head behind the
ear.
That the person who did the shoot
ing stood on a cellar door beneath the
window and within few feet Of his
victim. was plainly revealed by the
angle at which the bullet pierced the
window. That only one thoroughly
conversant with the duties Of the wo-
man in the house and the knowl-
edge that in the performance Of her
duties she must approach the VIM
dow on the exterior Of which the
would-be assassin lurked was respon-
sible for the shooting is the unanimous
opinion Of the officers who investigat-
ed the case.
James Meenan. who is a driver for a
downtown express comany. and his
wife were married about two years
ago. Their domestic relations were
ruffled from time to time. and last
May the woman left him. according to
people intimately acquainted with the
pair.
Before her marriage Mrs. Meenan
had been in the employ Of tho Lee
family. After she decided to leave
her husband and toll for the keep of
herself and her little one, she return
ed to the kind-hcarted folks who had
been so good to her in previous years.
Since that sime. according to Lee.
the husband has frequently attempted
to interview his wife against the lat
ter's wishes. Once Mrs. Mcenan con-
sented to a meeting. anu. at its con-
clusion. she informed Mrs. Lee that
she did not desire another interview
with him. Accordingly Mcenan was
turned away about week ago.

Taft'S Chicago SNeccll


Despite that 1t has been 60 little
advertised, this Hughes movement is a
serious development. Both Taft and
tho anti-Taft Republicans are recoE-
nizing 1t. 1t hegan to be serious about
the time OF the progressive conference
at Chicago three weeks ago. It re-
doubled its force and seriousness about
the time Taft made the Chicago
speech. which admitted that he didn't
feel sure he could be reelected.
That Chicago speech, indeed, took
the heart out Of ;raft's supporters az
nothing else has done. it convinced
the antt-Taft. anti-LaFollette, anti
Wilson people that 1t was just time
for then, to get busy. Suppose Taft
should get a fit Of candor and disgust
some morning and. while nobody sus.
pccted, should announce that he would
not ask g. denomination? That would
play right into the hands of the La
Toilette crowd: and Taft is the sort
Of a man to do Just such thing.
Must Have Man Ready
Therefore the conservative Republi-
can element must be fortified against
such danger by having another man
In the field to benefit instantly by the
Taft withdrawal. If it happens; to
seize upon the sertnRth relinquished
by the president; to claim the east and
the south. And Hughes is the man
who is being quietly groomed for that
relation to the situation.
To make too much noise about him
at this stage would perhaps spoil the
whole plan; 1t might induce him fatty
to refuse. So the movement is being
managed very quietly. very skillfully
very earnestly. Every step depends on
how Taft moves. how the LaFollette
campaign develops strength, how the
Democratic situation frames with ref.
erence to Harmon and Wilson and
Clark.

FIRST WITNESS
IN STEWART CASE
Started Taking Evidence
This Afternoon-Use Cir
curnstantial Evidence

Pembina. N. D.. Nov. 9.-circum-
stantial evidence is the foundation up
on which the case Of the state against
Ernest A. Stewart. charged with mur-
dering Phillip Worral. will be con-
structed. That was the statement
made to the Jury this morning by
bina county when he opened the case.
The last two jurymen were secured
this morning. 1t requiring only one day
to fill the jury box despite the fact
that the Stewart case has been one
of the most widely discussed actions
t!a' has been brought up in this Sec
ticn.
The prosecuting attorney. in outlin-
ing the case that would be attempted
to prove. declared that it would be
necessary to rely very largely, in fact
almost entirely. upon circumstantial
evidence. He then covered the ground
that was covered by the preliminary
hearing. stating that witnesses would
be placed on the stand in an endcavor
to show that Worral had not escaped
from the immigration detention sta
ton at Neche in the manner in which
Stewart had declared that he had
gotten away. and also that evidence
would be produced to show conclu-
sively that the skeleton found near
Neche is in fact that of the missing
man.
No effort. it is expected, will be
made by the prosecution to show the
manner in which death was caused,
other than to lay the blame at Stew
arts door.
Aymond a Witness.
The taking evidence commenced
this afternoon with Joseph Aymond
Of Neche as a witness. His evidence
related to the finding of the skeleton
on his farm near Neche. and it was the
purpose of the prosecution to show,
by his evidence. that the place where
the bones were found had been hol-
lowed out. and that there had been
an attempt at secreting the body when
1t was first placed there

Washington. Nov. 9.-Naval officers
here are of the opinion that tho de-
bate in the British house of COM
mons regarding 1.-The naval activities
Of the United States on Lake M!chi-
gan" was based upon a complete mis-
understanding Of what the navy de-
partment has been doing in those wa
ters.
There has been no increase Of the
number or character of the Ameri-
can warshtps on the great lakes re-
Gently such as would come under the
Rush -Bagot agreement. The pre- j.
ence Of the secretary of the navy at
the opening Of the great lakes train
ing station near Chicago. it is believ-
ed, gave rise to the erroneous impress
sion that the United States is erect
ing a fortified naval station there.
AS matter Of fact. it is pointed
out. the establishment is simply q
station for the training of young men
in the interior OF the country for
service on the high seas and is scarce.
ly more than a recruiting station OF
q large scale.
