Both the new guardians Of the throne
we're formerly Grand Councillors. The
administration remains for tho present
in the hands of the Premier. Yuan-Shi-
Kai, while the Empress Dowager and
tho Emperor continue to hold audiences
and carry out ceremonial functions.
Prince Chun has been the chief hgure
In China since the death Of Emperor
Kwangsu and the Empress Dowager In
1909. In the dark days which followed
the death OF those rulers he proved him
self the greatest OF all the wranglers
ana i~ntriguers and emerged the ruler OF
China.
Al no time was Prince Chun's regency
q smooth one. lie tried to hold a mid

less than his old time vigor and re-

May Turn Dinner NO =.
Into Harmon Boom

Baltimore, Jan. s.--That the big
democratic dinner here ON January
II, which will be attended by hun
dreds Of prominent democrats from
all parts of the country. and was
planned as a harmony affair, will
turn out to be the means of formally
launching the boom Of Governor
Harmon, of Ohio, for president, Is
the growing belief here.
1t is understood that he is the
favorite of the Maryland contingent.
and will be the guest Of honor. Just
how his name will be presented has
not yet been determined, but It Is
more than likely that the toastmas-
ter at the banquet will take the
initiative when presenting the dis
tinguished ohioan. and the thousand
voices present will do the rest. A
representative of the Ohio boomers
who are pushing Harmon to the fore
has been here several days, and the
movement is now being planned.
Governor Wilson, of New Jersey
will not be present to interfere with
the demonstration. II has not YET
been decided whether Governor Har.
mon will speak at the Lyric meeting
but it is probable that he will appear
at both the meeting and banquet, the
address in the afternoon being more
OF an academic one, dealing with
democratic policies from the Jeffer.

Wheeling, w. Va, Jan. 9.--Laura
Farnsworth Schenk, accused Of pois-
onlng her millionaire husband, John
o. Schenk, plead not guilty when she
was arraigned before Judge Lewis
Jordan in the criminal court this
morning.
Rumors she would plead guilty were
denied by Attorney Frank A. o'Brien,
of counsel for the defense. Prosecu-
ing Attorney J. B. Handlan had ex-
pressed himself OF the belief Mrs.
Schenk would plead guilty and the
defense has summoned only one wit
ness. Attorney o'Brien said fourteen
would be summoned tomorrow.
While refusing 70 disclose the iden-
tity OF his witnesses. Prosecutor
Handlan said yesterday he had sum-
raoned 81 witnesses. seven Of whom
were physicians. Meme were rela-
lives OF either Mr.. or Mrs. Schenk.
Defense Not Decided.
Attorney Frank A. O'Brien said yes
terday, counsel for Mrs. Schenk had
not decided on their plan OF defense.
This. he said. was impossible. owing
TO the extraordinary method OF pro
ceeding by agents OF the state.
There had been no preliminary hear.
in, there was a special grand jury,
with concealment OF the identity OF
the witnesses testifying there. Conn
sci for the defense had been ordered
not 10 approach any OF the states
witnesses. and now the prosecutor
is even keeping secret the names OF
the witnesses summoned. so that
counsel for the accused woman knox
nothing Of the states plans, Of who
Mrs. Sehenk's accusers are. and just
how she is accused OF administering
the arsenic in the foor. drink. and
medicine OF her husband
Mrs Schenk PewerIess.
Counsel for Ms. Schenk have COM
planned bitterly OF the prosecutors
methods. but they are helpless 10 al
ter the situation. and are compelled 70
actually wait until the prosecutor de-
liycrs his opening address 70 the jury
+ before they will have even a hint Of
his plans and can prepare a defense
