proposition for the reapportionment
upon the announcement Of county
population statistics.
The counties which will lose one

STOLE \ MARCH on THEM.
While the Citizens Slept the Trees
Were Cut Down.

The city council OF Bambers, by
agreement, met Tuesday night with
4 force CT hands and, after the
streets had become deserted, axes
began work and every tree on Main
street was heltcd and many cut en-
trely down.
The action Of council was dis
cussed this morning by surprised cit
liens, many Of whom had been accHs-
toned TO sit in The shade of the trees
on long summer afternoons and
while away the time.
Lack Of uniformity and regularity
and the want Of room on the bust
ness street are assigned by council
as some Of The reasons for their ac-
ton. The council selected the night
time because it was realized that
there would he protests and much
talk which might interfere with what
they conceived to he the best inter-
esEs Of the town. T'e present coun-
ellis term Of Office expires in May.

cover million acres Of land in
this State escape taxation because
they are not shown on the tax dupli-
Gates and can not be put there until
definitely located in some particular
tax district" Comptroller General
Jones will say in a vigorous report
to the General Assembly.
He will complain that persona
owning property in adjacent school
districts often return it all in that
district, having the lowest tax or
none and they in laying off schoo'
districts in some counties have been
$50 gerrylnandered as to. create dis
tricts of most absurd and inconven-
lent shapes.
Mr.. Jones urges that "an accurate
survey Of district line, road and wa
ter would more than pay for itself
in the revenue increase that would
follow. No such survey has been
made since that Of Mills, in 1925.

LITTLE BODY FOUND.
Seems to IIuvr Been Poisoned Will,
Carbo{ic Acid.

Aid of the police in every large
city of the country has been sought,
thus far in vain, in an effort to learn
the identity of the five-year-old boy
whose frozen body with acid stains
about the mouth, was found Thurs
day in a swamp on the Schenectady
road in New York. Today an autrp-
sy will be held TO determine more
definitely the cause Of death. but the
police have little doubt that the boy
was slain by some one who forced
carbolic acid down his throat.
A half empty bottle of the acid
hearing the label Of an Albany, n
Y, druggist, was found under the
body. The corpse was wearing shoes
and stockings and feet showed traces
Of mud, as they would have done had
the child walked to the place where
he was found. 1t is the theory OF
the police that the child was MUIR
dered by kidnappers to get rid OF
him.

STEPHENSON Is AC-

Two Republicans and One Demo.
crat, Member of State Senate Com
mittee, Unite in Report.

s'The nomination in the primary
and the election to the United States
senate by the legislature Of Isaac
Stephenson are null and void, on &C
count of attempted briberies and cor
rupt practice by himself and his cam
paign leaders, agents and workers
and Of violations Of the laws Of Wis
consin defining and Furnishing Of
fenses against the elective fran
chise."
This is the gist Of the findings of
special senatorial Investigating
committee in it's report submitted to
Gov. Francis E. McGovern, Of Wis
consin, at Madison Wednesday. The
report is signed by Lieut.. Gov.
Thomas Morris and Senator Spencer
w. Marsh, Republicans, and Senator
Paul Husting, Democrat.
Early in the legislative session OF
1909 resolutions were introduced in
both houses calling for an investisa-
tion of the senatorial primary elec-
ton. The resolutions were partic-
ularly pointed at United States SEN
ator Isaac Stephenson, who, accord
ing to his report filed with the secre-
tary of state, expended 100000 dur
ing the campaign.
Mr.. Bancroft, speaker Of the as
sembly, named a committee com
posed Of a majority of the stalwart
Republicans and Lieut.. Gov. John
Strange, who then presided over the
senate, named Senators Marsh, Nor
ris and Husting. The committees met
in joint sessidn for several weeks.
Then the assembly branch of the
committee decided to go no further.
The assembly members of the COM
mittee rendered report, recon-
mending the enactment Of law reg
ulating campaign expenditures and
stating that there was no evidence of
corruption on the part Of Senator
Stephenson.
Following this, special resolution
w dS duOplSI ny IAC oSAdIS 1ho>iA .
the three senators named a special
Investigating committee. to probe
further into the primary election.
The report and findings are the re-
suit of that special committees
work.
The assembly members of the joint
investigating committee are scored
by the senate committee for their al
legged failure to assist in thorough
investigation OF the Stephenson nom
ination and election
The election committees report on
this point is as follows:
Throughout the Investigation va
rious members Of the assembly per-
sonally endeavored to prevent the
investigation OF Isaac Stephenson. .
The committee recomm that a
copy Of the resolution be certified to
the United States senate by the gov
ernor and the legislature with the
request that that body investigate the
manner in which stephenson pro-
cured his election.

GAYNORS CHOICE
HE WANTS SHEPPARD FOR
UNITED STATES SENATOR.
Leaders Endorsement
Counterbalanced by Murphy's Dec
laration OF Antagonism.
Endorsement

Two. facts in the United States
lsenatorship fight in this State cropped
! out in New York Wednesday. Tam
{; many Hall and Charles F. Murphy
are opposed to Edward NJ. Sheppard
OF Brooklyn as a successor to Chaun'
cey M. Depew and Mayor Gaynol
urges his selection.
Mr.. Murphy spoke for Tammany
and himself just before departing fol
Albany Wednesday afternoon; the
mayor recorded. .;his endorsement: Of
Mr.. Sheppard in a letter made -4blic
"wednesday night. 1t IS addressed; to
State Senator Frank NJ. Loomis OF
Buffalo and says:
"I can only say that am heartily
in favor of the election Of Edward NJ
Sheppard as senator. He stands fol
everything which is best in politics
His selection would bring great cred
it on the State Of New York. During
generation the State of New York
has been represented in the United
States senate by men who were mere
lobbyists from their youth up, or
corruptionists in politics. We now
have the opportunity to set our face
against that. Will we Go it? There
never was a palmer case and if it be
evaded the bad effect thereof will
long survive"
In Brooklyn Mr.. Sheppard de-
clined to comment either on the
mayors Endorsement or Murphys op-
position.
The characteristically brief inter
view with the Tammany leader was
obtained at the Grand Central sta
ton. By his side at the time stood
John H. McCooey, Patrick McCar-
ren's successor as the leader OF
Brooklyn, who Tuesday issued
statement strongly supporting Shep-
pard. Wednesday he repeated his
Endorsement directly after the Muir
ply interview.
.What will be the attitude of the
organization on the senatorial ques-
tion?" the Tammany leader was
asked.
"The organization" replied Mr..
Murphy. with slow emphasis, "is
against Sheppard and I have to be- :
"Does that mean th..t William F.
Sheehan will be elected to the United
States senator"
'..I am not saying So" replied
Mr.. Murphy. "I will only say. that
all the leaders of the organization
are against Sheppard"
"How about McCooey's declaration
that he is for Sheppard?"
"Oh."'' said the Tammany leader,
turning away with a smile, "that is
Brooklyn affair
With McCooey's statement, Muir
phys interview and Gaynor's letter,
the attitudes of three important in
fiuences in the senatorship fight are
now in the open, but it remains for
the legislature to decide whose pref
erences shall be followed.
