Clay Beattie, Jr., was arraigned at
Chesterfield court house on the charge
OF numbering his wife,
More than GO witnesses have been
subpoenaed by the commonwealth and
it is planned to have a majority of
them on hand at the outset. Among
them will be Paul Beattie, the cousin,
who swore before the coroner that he
purchased the shotgun with which
Mrs. Beattie W. killed.
Beulah Binford, the 19-year-old girl,
who figures as 1.-The other woman in
the case.' probably will not be called
upon to testify for several days.
The defense has not disclosed the
number of witnesses it will summon,
nor the outline of the case it hopes to
present in Beattie's behalf. An in
sanity plea has been suggested, but
this has been generally discredited.
The popular belief is that his lawyers
will rely on the fact that no one saw
the crime committed and attempt to
break down Paul Beattie's story that
he purchased the gun for the prisoner.
Both sides have testatively confer
red with alienists with possible view
of the introduction of insanity into
the case. Beattie is 26 years old;
his murdered wife was %. She left
behind her a fivc-year-old baby.

President Taft's coming trip through

tfcally are completed. The journey
will be almost as extensive as that
taken by the president on his famous
Swing around the circle" in 1909,
when he travelled more than $4,000

nier's precipitous slope.
According to the present arrange
ment, the president will be gone six
weeks. In that time it is expected he
will make close to 200 speeches. Re-
publican leaders look upon the trip as
the most important, politically, that
the president has mapped out since he
entered the White House. He will go
through all the states in the West in
which they recognize the domination of
the progressive Republicans, who are
counted on to oppose his denomination
next year.
The president will leave Beverly
Sept. IL, returning east about Nov. 1.
He will go west through Iowa, Kansas,
Nebraska, Colorado. and Nevada. to
the coast. Most Of the big cities in
these states, including Des Moines.
kansas City, Omaha. Denver, and Salt.
Lake City, will be visited, but the
plans for the trip contemplate stops
at scores of smaller places as we'll.
From California the president will
go north to Portland and Seattle.
Three days are to be spent in Wash
lngton state and the route eastward
will allow hiw to stop in Idaho, Mon!
tana, the Dakotas and Minnesota.

The boards decision, he believed. left
physicians without sufficient informa-

strength of the flour. In this case the
secretary upheld the board.
"No Answer to Appeal"
The other case involved the labelling
of fruits and fruit products which con-
tanned sulphur dioxide. This subject
is now before the Remsen pure food

of three cabinet members, Secretaries

that manufacturers could continue to
