Determined Beattie Shall
Not Try Suicide in Cell.

Richmond, Va, July 31.-Beulah
Binford, the woman in the case, will
be a State witness against Henry C..
Beattle, jr., when he is placed on trial
for the mu rider of his wife. This was
learned today althous h Police Capt.
Nc ahon declared he will be able t.
CO nvict the young husband without
the girls testimony. ''Of course, "
says Capt. Mcmahon, 81 am always
looking out for surprises in any case.
1 am investigating. Sometimes the
impossib does happen. We ran
down every clue or rumor that is sug-
gested that might indicate that some
one other than BERTHE killed his wife,
but SO far there has not been a ghost
of indication that ANYBODY else than
he had any-part in that bad night
work. 1 consider the fact that the
bloodhounds when taken to the spot
where Mrs. Beattie was killed, refus-
ed to take up the trail, but just ran
from the spot of blood to the stump,
behind which Beattie is believed to
have hidden the gun, and back again,
is proof positive that no third party
was on the scene, and the reason the
dogs could not follow the trail away
from the place is because Beattie left
it on the rubberwheels of his automo-
bile. have never known of any case
in which the circumstantial evidence
against man, is stronger than Beat
tie. Hundreds of men have gone to
the gaIlows on less evidence than will
be brought against him at the trail.
Dete rmined that Henry C. Beattie,
jr., shall not cheat the people of Hen
rico county of a fair trial, which will
brand him as revolving murderer or
find him the innocent victim of unjust
suspicion, the authorities today ad-
mitted thai they will not permit the
accused young man to commit suicide
This admission of the part of the
detectives and the Jail officers explain
why Bea:tie's frequent plea to be al
LEVIED TO use his guitar have been
denied. The police do not care to give
him chance to use the strings of the
instrument in any attempt at self
destruction.

A Statement From Friends snd
Supporters Of Senator
Thomas s. Martin.

1.-THE undo rsigned, citizens of
Lynchburg, impressed with the
Importance to the Nation, as well
as the State, of fhe reelection
of the Honorable Thomas S,
Martin, take the liberty of re-
minding their fellow-citizens that
he has attained a position in the
United States Senate which re-
fleets honor upon his people and
his State.
While lie is. officially. the
leader of the Democratic men,
bers of the United States Senate,
iu view of the factions among
the Republican members, Senator
Martin, during the present ses-
sion of the Senate, and during
its consideration of the Reel
procity Bill and the revision of
imp )rtant schedules of the Tariff,
his, in fact, been leader of that
body.
The duties devolving upon
Senator Martin have been SO ex-
acting as to preclude him from
devoting any of his time and
personal attention to the canvas
for Senators, and his fidelity to
his duties, at the socrifice of a
commendable personal ambition,
m irks him as a public servant
worthy of all praise.
We take this occasion to ex-
press our mistaken confidence in
Senator Martin, and to record
our candid belief that his SER
vices have been such as to make
his reelection a matter of SUI
prerne political Importance to
the Commonwealth of Virginia. "
The above statement signed
By over six hundred citizens of
Lynchburg was published i'll the
Lynchburg Advance, shows how
highly the services of Hon. Thos.
S. Martin are appreciated in
other parts of the State. It Isl
hardly necessary for Senator
Martin to canvass the State.
The people, for whom he has
1abored so diligently and so sue
cessfully will take good care of
his interests in spite of the
frantic efforts Of the League.
Shenandoah herald. [volume] (Woodstock, Va.) 1865-1974, 1911-08-04

AS the citizen to whom we re-
fer declares himself to be sup
porter of the Hon. Carter Glass
for the senate, we assume that he
regards Mr.. Glass as sane,
truthful and intelligent man. In
the year 1905 Mr.. Glass wrote fer
publication these words:
AS to the talk about Mar
tins Machine sensible people
will, upon reflection, understand
that Senator Martin has less ma
terial than Mr.. Montague out of
which to construct political
machine. Mr.. Martin has no
patronage in Virginia; he cannot
even appoint friend of his to an
honorary position on any OF the
managing boards of the State in
lstitutions. By reason of his Of
fical position he has no influence
with the General Assembly, be-
cause he is absolutely dependent
on the good will of the legisla-
ture, rather than the members
thereof upon his favor. On the
Iother hand Mr.. Montague, as
Governor of the State, has large
patronage, which he has not fail
led to distribute among his own
friends and supporters. How.
then, can Senator Martin build up
machine? What can he promise
any man for his support in way
Iof patronage, and why should
any man stand in fear of him.
The fact is, Mr.. Martin is not a
boss, and he can't be. The peo-
| pie of Virginia never have and
never will tolerate a boss and
they will not endure machine
constructed by Mr.. Martin or Mr..
Montague; and there is less rea-
son to believe that the former
has any desire, than the latter to
construct a machine. -
What this change?
