Right After Inauguration
To Revise Tariff.
NOT CATER THAN 18TH APRIL
President Elect Has Sailed for
Bermuda to Remain
sAway Month.
GENERAL APPROVAL OF IDEA

New York, Nov. l5.-Gov. Will
son announced tonight that i'm
mediately-, after his Inauguration
as President he would call an extra
session Of Congress to convene not
later than April IL for the purpose
of revising the tariff.
The President-elect will sail for
Bermuda at 2 o'clock tomorrow
afternoon for his vacation, and will
return on December 1G.
In a statement issued tonight
he declared the pledges of the party
ought to be redeemed as soon as
possible, and that the extra session
would be in the interest of bust
ness, in that all uncertainty as to
what the tariff revision will be.
will be removed. Most of the opin-
ions from public men he had re-
ceived, seemed favorable to an ex-
ira session. he declared.
Unless an extra session is called,
the conye1ing of the new Congress
would not occur until thirteen
months after its election, and tariff
revision, the Governor felt, would
be too long delayed.
Gov. Wilson came to New York
te-night to attend a dinner in his
honor by his classmates, of Prince
ton. 70.
The President-elect and family
will sail on the steamship Bermu-
dian, arriving at Bermuda Monday,
where he has leased a cottage on
a remote part of the island.
General Approval.
Washington, Nov. 15.-General
approval was expressed in Demo-
cratic circles tonight, OF Wilson's
decision to call an extra session to
revise the tariff. Speaker Clark
and other leaders concur with the
Governors views. The speaker
earlier in the day had voiced his
desire in strong terms for an extra
session.
w. ]. Bryan, when informed of
the Governors decision, said he
had done the wise thing"
Senator Dixon, of Montana, also
thought it the wise thing" The
twenty-five Progressive members OF
the House will caucus separately,
and will be glad to support the
Wilson program, if it squares with
their own belief" he said. But
remember" he added, laughingly.

MEETS DEATH IN GARB
OF GAY WEDDING DAY

Moultrie, Ca, Nov. 16.-Shroud-
ed in her wedding trousseau of 20
years ago. and incased in casket
for which she had the lumber cut
from cypress tree growing on her
farm 90 years ago, the body of Mrs.
Betsy Patterson was to-day inferred
in the family cemetery at the Pat
terson homestead. Mrs. Patterson
was 80 years old.
For three score and ten years
she had carefully preserved the gar
ments she wore when a bride in her
teens. 1t was her wish that upon
her death these garments should
constitute her shroud.
Fifty years ago she had the cof-
fin made from lumber yielded by
her favorite tree, and during ALI
these years she kept the casket in
her home.
The cypress tree from which the
coffin was made was trysting
place for Mrs. Patterson and her
husband before they were married.

The following taken from the
Union City paper published in the
town where Mr. Barnett had lived
for many years, will be Of interest
to the many friends here where he
was bern and reared:
1T was my good fortune to know
Bob Barnett and to know him we'll,
I was most intimately associated
with him In a business and social
way for many years, during which
time ] never heard one single pro-
fame or obscene word drop from
his lips.
HE lived in my home for near
ly seven years and in all of that
time | never heard Bob Barnett say
ore hard or unkind word about any
living human. always something
good about the party discussed or
not one word from Bob.
He was Christian gentleman,
in the fullest sense of the term
what more could l say? That's
enough. Who can in truth meas
ure up to this standard? / can't.
Bob Barnett was my friend,
was his friend. Good bye, Bob. till
We meet again, E. B. LITTLE.

FATHER AND SON TO DIE
IN THE ELECTRIC CHAIR

Richmond, Va, Nov. 1S.-A new
trial was to-day refused Floyd AL
len and his son, Claude Swanson
Allen, by the Supreme Court of Vir-
ginia. The men are condemned to
die in the electric chair next Fri
day for the murder Of officials of
the Carroll County Court at Hills
vile, March IA.
Floyd Allen was convicted May,
II, specifically for the killing of
Commonwealth's Attorney William
NJ. Foster. His son, tried on the
charge of killing Judge Thornton
L. Massie, was convicted and SEN
fenced to fifteen years in the peni-
Tertiary. A second trial on an in
dictment for the killing of Attor-
ney Foster resulted in conviction
for murder in the first degree, July
81.
1t Is believed that Gov. Mann
will not interfere with the eXecu-
ton of the sentence imposed by the
courts. The appeal to the Supreme
Court for new trials, decided ad-
versely to-day, had been pending
for some time, but Virginia officials
have proceeded with arrangements
for the execution of the men, be-
lieving that no clemency would be
shown.
The Hillsville courthouse shoot
ing in March, when the Allen clan
resented the conviction of Floyd
Allen on a minor charge by killing
five persons in the court room, is
still holding attention in Virginia
because of the trial of Sidna Allen,
the clan leader, now under way at
Wytheville.

BY President Taft in Open
Declaration.
It IS HEADED FOR SOCIALISM
He DeclareS-IS Surprised at
Roosevelt Showing in
Recent Election.
WANTS FACTIONS TO UNITE

New York, Nov. 16.-President
Taft discusses the present situation
in the Republican party at length in
a statement published by the World
to-day, expressing the hope that
Progressives and regulars will be
able to join in single united par
ty for effective action at the next
general elections.
The sheet anchor of popular
government is in the division of the
people into two great parties and
no more he declares.
Mr. Taft deals with the Bull
Moose movement in considerable
detail. 81 was surprised at Mr..
Roosevelt's strength in the cleo
ton" he says, and adds, comment
ing on the Progressive platform:
THE difficulty | find with the
present Progressive program is that
it contemplates the impossible. The
country cannot afford to turn itself
over to a class of men who do not
deserve to figure in any more hon
orable fight than quacks do in the
practice OF medicine. 1t would be
too great danger to the body pol
itic.
when a party like the Bull
Moose party comes forward and
proposes to tear down all the
checks and balances of well-ad-
justed, democratic, constitutional,
republican government, then the
issue affects the permanence and
continuance OF our government.
The danger is from a party
whose tendency is thus necessarily
destructive OF what has been labor
iously established for the good and
of mankind by the strug-
giles of centuries and which is head
ed as clearly for Socialism as the
Socialist party itself
1T behooves us, therefore, as Re-
to look forward to the
time when in the natural course OF
events. the Democrats shall have
the public, to be ready
to prevent that disappointment
from being used by the Bull Moose
and Socialist combination to get
into power"

TEDDY GETS PLURALITY

TWO MEN KILLED IN a
STREET DUEL AT FILSON

Clay City, KY, Nov. 1.-Two
men met death in a street duel at
Filson, six miles east of Stanton,
Powell county, to-day. Billy Bow
en-, former Sheriff of Powell coun-
ty. was instantly killed by Henry
Skidmore and Skidmore was so badE
wounded by Rees Bowen, a
brother of the former Sheriff, that
he died tonight. Rees Bowen made
his escape.
A reward OF $3.50 was offered to-
night by T. G. Sidmore, relative OF
Henry Skidmore. for the arrest of
Rees Bowen. The participants were
of prominent families.
Bowen was elected Sheriff of
Powell county at the last election
for county officers, but on COM
plant of irregularity in his ac-
counts was ousted from office. His
bondsmen made good the shortage,
which his friends declared was due
more to a poor system OF book
keeping than to any intentional dis
honesty on the part of the Sheriff.
So far as could be learned to-
night, there had been no previous
difficulty between the men who
were killed or between Skidmore
and Rees Bowen. Both the slain
men are survived by families.

Beers, wife OF a Methodist minister

was that Mrs. Beers came to her
death through suffocation caused
by swallowing her false teeth, the
teeth having been forced into her
throat by her husband"
The evidence OF a dozen witness
es tended to show that the teeth
were accidentally forced into the
woman's throat. Beers will re-
main in jail here until tomorrow,
when the county officials will decide
whether or not q prosecution will
be started

A PITIABLE CASE AND
FATHERS AWFUL CRIME

Morganfield, Ky.,Nov. 1S.-lndig-
nation against Edward Pemberton,
under arrest here for an unnatural
crime, has been increased by the
story OF Judge Clements, who
brought Pemberton's daughter here
from st. Louis.
Judge Clements, who has taken
a special interest in the case of the
wronged girl, was sworn in as a
special deputy, and spent two DAYS
securing st. Louis for the girl
mother, who had disappeared from
the city hospital. Judge Clements
finally found her in surroundings
that have touched the hearts of all
who have heard the story with pity.
Judge Clements had the young wo-
man in custody at the Sterling Ho-
tel in Evansville last Thursday,
when she awakened and found her
child dead beside her.
After going to St. Louis for the
poor girl found her in cellar
near the river 'front.'" said Judge
Clements. mo light entered the
room. The place was damp and
cold. There was no bed. A couch
had been made of two chairs and a
plank and on this found the IL
year-old girl and her baby. The
mothers cloak covered both
never in my life saw so pitiable a
sight. She admitted to me that her
father was the parent of her child"

Pitiful Picture.

ANAhACs
Paris, Nov. 1S.-A picture of the
Reorganization in the Turkish army
Is drawn by the war correspondent
of the Matin, at Hademkeui, the
Turkish headquarters of the lines
of Tchatalja. He says:
Col. Lehman, a German officer,
who has just taken over command
of the Turkish artillery, declares
that he did not find single gun in
place. The Turks have plenty of
guns and ammunition. They have
German cannon and also French
cannon taken from the Servians be-
fore hostillties began. Three of the
French guns were seen lying in
the mud at the Hedamkeui railroad
depot, rust-eaten and useless.
THE total of, the Turkish forces
is estimated at 15O,UUO men, but
there Is complete lack of energy
among the commanders and organ
ization of any sort is absent. The
commander-in-chief does not leave
his parlor car, where he will not re-
ceive anybody. The staff officers of
the Turkish army themselves can
see him only after 10 o'clock in the
morning.
IF things go on as they are to-
day the Bulgarians will not find any
Turkish troops to fight; they will
all be dead from cholera and ty-
phoid."
