Democratic Congressman Littleton
Uses Time Given to Him fer
Political Address to
Eulogize Taft
HONORED PLACE IN HISTORY
Appointment of Ex-Confederate to
Chief Seat in v. S.. Supreme
Court and Reciprocity At
titude are lauded.

New York. N. Y, Feb. 3.-It is not
often that a Democratic congressman
devotes the time allotted him for a po-
litical address to unstinted praise of a
Republican leader. This, however, was
a tribute which Congressman Little
ton paid President Taft here last night
in speaking before Manufacturers as
ISOLATION of New York. His subject
was "The New Statesmanship."
There are two things the president
of the United States has done" said
Littleton, that will give him high
place in American history. In the first
place he had courage which no other
president that 1 know of ever had, to
appoint an ex-confederate soldier to
a chief seat in the Supreme Court of
the United states. He also had cour-
age to submit the doctrine of reci-
procity with Canada, a step which way
have confounded the counsels of his
party. But the American people un-
derstand it and they will support him.
He has proved that he knew no north
or south, east or west, but conceived
that our flag represented the entire
nation"

HE POISONED
HIS ENEMIES
RUSSIAN PHYSICIANS KILLS UN-
DESIRABLE RELATIVES AND
TELLS COURT HOW HE
DID IT.

ST. Petersburg, Feb. 3.-Dr. Pant
chenko, whose specially he admits has
been the poisoning of undesirable rel
atives and enemies, whose victims, 1t
is said, number forty or more, told
at today's session of his trial how he
secured his instruments of death.
Pantchenko, in common with Count
De Lassy, is charged with numbering
the latters brother-in-la Count
Bouturlin. heir to several millions,
which il is alleged De Lassy coveted
for his wife. Pantchenko claims he
was under the hypnotic influence of De
Lassy. who, however, paid him for
making away with the count, he said.
DIR. Heinrich, veterinary of the pest
laboratory in Kronstadt. testified Pant
chenko twice obtained from him tubes
OF cholera ondo-toxlne. Pantchenko
told the court he gave this poison to

PETITION FOR ADMISSION.
Residents of MelIinsviIIe Would Join
Village Of HubbelI.

At the last regular meeting of the
Hubbell council a petition was re-
oeived signed by fifty-two of the six
ty-two settlers at Mellinsville, asking
for admission into the village. The
petition was taken under advisement
by the council and will be acted up
on at some future meeting.
While some of the councilmen favor
granting the petition, others are of the
opinion that the petitioners should
provide some inducement before this
action is taken. AS the village has an
up-to- date water system, installed at
n lig expense for the tax payers and
the location which desires admission
as an addition has practically no i'm
provements, IL is felt that some ar
rangement should be made so that the
burden might be distributed equitably.
Considerable interest is manifested
I'm the movement to unite the two
towns and there is little doubt that the
residents of Hubbell would welcome
the proposed addition II II can be
brought about on satisfactory basis.

CONVENTION OF
HOBOES FAILURE
ONLY coRPoRAL's GUARD PRES
EMIT WHEN GATHERING is
CALLED TO ORDER AT THE
CREAM CITY.

Milwaukee, Wis, Feb. 3.-Though
this was the date fixed for the meeting
in this city of the national convention
of "Hoboes," there was not outward
evidence to show that any considerable
number of delegates had arrived to at
tend the gathering. The convention
was called by ]. Eads How, the So
called millionaire tramp who is pres
ident Of the Brotherhood Welfare AS
ISOLATION. The announcement purpose
of the convention was to discuss the
momentous problem, Does II Pay to
Work."
Plans for the convention have been
going forward for some time and con-
siderable disappointment was express
ed over the failure of the delegation
to show up. Various reasons for the
lack of attendance were advanced. 1t
was generally agreed that President
How made a mistake in calling the
convention for this time of year. II is
well known fact that the casual la
borers," with which official appelation
they have been dignified by the Amer
ican Federation of Labor, stick fast 10
the large cities during the winter
months. Then. again, the call for the
gathering was not issued far enough
ahead Of time. With walking prac-
tically impossible and freight trains
stalled in the snow IL is hardly TO be
expected that the delegates from dis
tant parts Of the country could arrive
i'm the convention city on time.
The reason Milwaukee was chosen
for the convention city was because OF
'hoboes" believed socialist Mayor Sci
del would prove more sympathetic
than the mayer Of Kansas City. where
the last convention was held. He
placed the delegates in the "undesir-
able citizen" class. and opened the po-
lice stations for their reception in
stead of the hotels.

STORY OF WILSON'S DEATH.
Carl A. Fichtel Tells Circumstances
as He Found Them.

Carl L. Fichtel of Calumet, who re-
turned to Houghton yesterday with
the body of the late Morgan A. Wilson
son of Editor and Mrs. J. II. Wilson
of Lake Linden, brings the first au-
thentic information concerning the
death of Mr.. Wilson. III appears he
was overcome by exhaustion in Sc
we're snow storm on January 1 and 2
and was frozen to death.
Last fall. Wilson and Austin f. Du-
mond, another prospector, decided to
spend the winter trapping and estab-
lished camps about As miles north of
Gowganda in the Cobalt region, Mr..
location is itself so miles from a rail-
road station. According to arrange
ment, the men met every second day
and deposited their furs at Wilson's
camp Just before Christmas, Dur
and left for his home, telling Wilson
he would return on January 10, with
provisions and asking him to leave
camp about January | with tent
which he was to set up for Durand at
a point ten miles away. This Wilson
did. making the trip by canoe and
snow shoes, but while on his way. a
severe snow storm came up, the ther-
mometer dropping to ~ degrees below
zero and Wilson began to retrace his
steps after concealing the tent, which
he did not take time to set up. Indi-
cations point to the fact that shortly
after he left the tent, he fell into the
river, getting his snow shoes wet. so
that they clogged with snow. Taking
them off. he set them against a tree,
and continued his journey. The rest Is
a matter of conjecture. His shnoe was
not found at its accustomed place and
IL Is believed Il was capsized. The
body was found face downward In the
snow, about one-fourth of a mile from
the river on the way to the cabin.
During wilson's absence, his bride
of four months passed through an ex-
perience the like of which falls the
lot OF few women. Knowing that some
accident must have befallen her hus-
band. she made daily searches for his
body. going as far from the small cab
in as her strength would permit. Four
