ON TRIAL FOR

AGED FATHER IN COURT ROOM
Paramour Sits in Cell With Forty

! Chesterfield, Court House. Va. Aug.
21.-Standing by the side of his gray
headed father, Henry Clay Beattie, Jr..
of Richmond, entered a plea of not
guilty here today when arraigned in
| the circuit court on an indictment
charging him with the mdrder of his
young wife. He did not finch as the
clerk read the indictment but stood
with eyes lowered.
The father beside him sat with bow
ed head. Bareehaded, chewing gum
and smiling, Henry Clay Beattie. Jr.,
arrived at the Chesterfield county
court house in an automobile at 10
o'clock this morning. Judge Waiter
A. Watson arrived shortly before the
prisoner to convene court.
Beattie's aged father had reached
Chesterfield half an hour earlier. In
the court, father and son sat side by
side and exchanged whispers. Beattie
then began to talk with his lawyers.
The tiny room was jammed as the
proceedings began, and to discourage
the curious and idle, the court ordered
that all disinterested spectators stand
up and remain standing. Two wom-
en- newspaper writer's were the only
white women in the yard or court
building.
Paramour is Confident.
Beulah Binford did not appear at
today's proceedings. She may be call
ed as a witness during the trial but
today she remained in a cell at Rich
mond, surrounded by pictures of Beat
tie-she has no less than As in the
cell-reading newspaper extras and
protesting confidence in his acquittal.

Twenty Five Pages OF Amend
ments Are Adopted With

(By Special Leased Wire to Nev Mexicanl
Washington, D. c., Aug. 2l.-Speak-
err Clark of the House today expressed
the belief that Congress would ad-
iourn tonight Whether this predic-
ton will come true depends on the
speed with which the cotton bill is
passed today and the Presidents veto
message is sent in.
May Adjourn Tonight.
Indications are that Congress will
wait to receive the message and that
if it is not available tonight it will
be ready by noon tomorrow.
To effect adjournment tonight Dem
ocratic Leader Underwood asked unan-
imous consent for immediate consid-
Grafton of the cotton bill with debate
limited to four hours. The rules COM
mittee met and brought in rule to
carry out Mr.. Underwood's plan, to
which Republican Leader Mann had
agreed.
Denounced BY Insurgents.
The rule under which the cotton bill
was taken up barred any House
amendments to the Senate measure.
Representative Madison of Kansas,
insurgent Republican, denounced the
rule as the most drastic evar Of
fered in the House of Representatives
He told the Democrats that they we're
returning to gag rule" methods,
though many of them had secured
their seats by denouncing those meth.
DDS.
Unprecedented Says Cannon.
Former Speaker Cannon, central
figure in the great rules revision bat
tie at the last session of Congress, al.
so arraigned the rule. He said it was
unheard of to call upon members to
vote on 25 pages of amendments which
had not even been read.
rs Democrats Vote With Republicans
The rule was adopted 143 to 107
twenty-five Democrats voting with
the Republicans. Its work finished
the Senate at sos recessed until 5: 80
o'clock this afternoon to mark time
on the House, which was expected to
pass the cotton tariff revision bill late
this afternoon. This would permit the
bill to be signed by the Speaker and
Vice President and hurried to the
President tonight for his veto.

M;s. Madeline Mills Unfurled
1t From Capitol This
Morning
OFFICIALS REJOICE At NEWS
Secretary Jaffa and Land CON-
missioner Ervien Back in
Time to Hear 1t.

The minute news was received OF
President Taft signing the New Mexi-
co-Arizona statehood bill the whistle
of the New Mexican announced the
fact to Santa Fe and telephone mes
sage was sent to Governor William J.
Mills who was in his office. The gov

tive 16-year-old daughter Of Governor

ing the flag which fluttered in the
breeze and jubilantly proclaimed to
the world that New Mexico will surely
be state in few months.
Until the president issues final
proclamation after the election of the
new states officials, of course New
Mexico like Arizona remains Under a
territorial form of government and is
really still "the territory of New
Mexico" though it has the certainty of
taking it's place in the Union at the
appointed time.
Joy at Capitol.
The ringing of bells, the footing of
whistles and the shouts of pedestrians
on the streets told plainly 70 the capt.
tol officials as to others, that the pres
ident had signed the statehood bill
and there was much rejoicing, re-
gardless of possible changes in the
official family of the capitol. Patriot
ism rose higher than personal feelings
in the matter and there was many a
hurrah for the New State!
The officials in the Federal building
and in the court house were also en-
thusiastic over the signing of the bill.
Territorial Secretary Nathan Jaffa
and Land Commissioner R. P. Ervien
had returned to their desks in the cap
itol in time to get the news. They
spent the past week at Roswell leav-
ing that city at 8 o'clock Friday after
action while en- route. Mr.. Ervien said
they had had a very pleasant. trip
without mishaps except for the break
ing of spring on one of the autos.

rison of Porta1es, Roosevelt county,
and William F. Miller of Des Moines,
Union county, notaries public.
