MARTIN FOR LEADER
OF DEMOCRATIC SENATORS
is Opposed by Progressive Democrats
--Bryan's influence Against HIM
"A CAUCUS is Being Held
Stone Not a Candidate

Washington, April ga caucus o.
Democratic senators win be heid ioi
the purpose Of selecting a caucus
chairman, which position carries Win
it the minority floor leadership. SEN
ator Martin of Virginia probably wlii
be named.
The opposition to the Virginia sen
ator. whose election had been con
coded prior TO a recent visit to WASH
ington of william ]. Bryan, comes
from what is known as the progress
sive faction and is led by Senator
Stone of Missouri.
About a dozen of the Democrats
who are warm admirers of MT Bryan
met in the office Of Senator owen
When this meeting adjourned 1t was
announced that the election OF Sena-
tor Martin was conceded.
Senator Newlands, it Is said, VIII

ACT OF COURTESY
CHAMP CLARK WOULD CARRY
OUT PRESIDENT TAFT's
PLANS.
WILL MEET STRONG OPPOSITION
House Leader Opposed to Cheap Poll
tlcs-Many Democrats Want Tariff
Made Paramount lssue--Will Send
Tariff Bills to Senate.

Washington, April S.--If the pro-
members of the ways and means com
mittee is made effective, there will be
prompt action on Canadian reciproc-
ity, tariff revision and an early ad-
journment of the extra session. In
addition to the passage of the Ca
madam reciprocity bill, 1t was decided
to pass measures revising the wool
schedule, the cotton schedule, the
iron and steel schedule, and correct
ing many miscellaneous inequalities
in the Payne tariff act.
II possible the house will proceed
next week with either the reciprocity
bill or bill revising one of the SEIZED
ules named.
At the close of the session Mr.. I'm.
derwood, the Democratic floor leader
said he would make motion that the
house adjourn until Monday in order
that Mr.. Mann, the Republican leader
should have an opportunity to com
plete the list of committee assign.
ments for the Republicans The un,
Outstanding Is that the committees
will be organized Monday afternoon
If so the ways and means commit
tee will lose no time in preparing a
tariff revision bill.
1t developed that Speaker Clark
fayors the passage OF the Canadian
reciprocity bill first He holds that
as President Taft called the extra SEES
sion for the enactment OF that meas
ure, the Democrats would play chear
politics If they used it as a club tc
force concessions is the passage OF
the tariff revision bill. A considera
bic element of the Democratic side
does not concur in the speakers view
and the method of procedure must be
settled within the next few days by 3
conference of the Democratic leaders
Unless Mr. Clark insists upon the
immediate passage Of the reciprocit,
bill Il Is likely that the house viii
take up the congressional reapportion
ment bill and after passing it proceed
with one OF the tariff revision bills
Democratic leaders realize that a pro
longed, and, probably, bitter debate
on Canadian reciprocity and the gen
eral subject of tarin revision win de
velop in the senate and they propose
to send the tariff bills to that body
at the earliest practical late.

MAN IS SLAIN BY
HIS INSANE WIFE
Mrs. Bethea Shoots Husband While
He Is Cooking Breakfast and
Then Slabs Him With
Knife.

Warren, April lice Bethea,
who lived in Wick, a small town in
Bradley county, was killed by his
wife yesterday morning at their
home, the weapons she used being
a shotgun and knife. There were
no witness to the killing, the only
statement of the facts being made
by her at the coroner's inquest held
today. Friends of the family say
that the woman is insane and that
will be her defense when the case
is tried.
According to her story, the COUP
lie had homesteaded place on the
Saline river and had built home.
They had got gotten along we'll and
the night before the killing they
had a violent quarrel. Yesterday
Bethea was cooking his
breakfast when he was shot by his
wife, who was standing in an ad-
joining room. He ran out into the
field and she fired again. He fell
and she ran to him and stabbed
him with q knife.
He was still alive and managed
to crawl to the house. She went
into the house also and reloaded
the gun. Bethea was sitting on the
steps of the house with blood
from his wounds, when
the woman fred on him from the
rear, the load taking effect in the
back of his head, blowing his
brains out.
At the coroner's inquest the wo-
man was held to the grand jury
without bail. She told the facts as
stated to the coroner.

LITTLE LIGHT ON
LINDSEY KILLING
Inquest, However, Revealed That
He Was Unarmed and Lying on
His Back When Shot by
Will Scott.

ED Lindsey came to his death
from gunshot wounds at the hands
Of VIII Scott"
Such was the brief but pointed
verdict of the coroner's jury which
held the inquest over Ed Lindseys
body.
No recommendation was made
that Scott be held to answer for
Lindsey's death, but, in spite OF the
fact that his present location is be-
ing withheld from the public, it is
stated by those in authority that
he already is virtually prisoner.
The testimony given at the in
quest established the following
facts, which, if not wholly agreed
upon by all witnesses, went undis-
puted:
VIII Scott received no bullet
wound; Ed Lindsey had no gun
during the fatal struggle in Attor-
ney Corners office; Lindsey was ly-
ing PROSTATE on the floor when
killed; Scott emptied his six-shoot-
er and reloaded it.
Features Of the ARRAY yet unset
tied are: Who struck Will Scott
when he went to the door of the
law office when called out just be-
fore the shooting began? Did Ed
Lindsey go to Corners Office in re-
spouse to a telephone call or 10
serve a warrant on Scott? Why did
he go unarmed when, as deputy
constable, he had the right to carry
a gun?
Practically all the witnesses
agreed that only six shots were
fred. Attorney Conner was the only
exception. He testified that he be-
lieved there were about eight. He
and Jim Fletcher also testified
that a shot was fired at Scott by
someone who met him at the door,
but in this contention they were
not supported by any other wit
nesses.
Lindsey's gun was produced at
The inquest, and the evidence
showed that it was in hepossession
Of Fred Alley when the fatal fight
occurred, it being turned over by
Alley to Frank Haley Immediately
after the killing. Alley was sum-
moned as witness before the cor
oner's jury, but did not appear and
could not be located. Haley was
present and testified to receiving
the gun from Alley.
Another witness who ran up the
stairway after the shooting testi-
fled meeting Alley in the hall with
two guns in his hands.

Appoints Old officer.
Sheriff Webb at once rocomis-
stoned all Houpts former deputies

had been permitting Rutherford
and Murray to remain at home in
