SCRRANk ASKED IF
ROOSEVELT LIVED
Wills Bullet to Historical Society as
Constant Reminder of "Third-
Term Tradition"

Milwaukee, Wis, Oct. 5.-Colonel
Roosevelt's assailant, John Schrank,
exhibited today for the first time an
interest in Colonel Roosevelt's condi-
ton when J. Bailey, sentenced to
ninety days, was brought into the tier
of cells where Schrank is confined.
Papers containing news Of the attack
have been denied the prisoner and for
that reason he did not know the con-
dition of his victim.
''Is Roosevelt still alive?" he asked
Bailey, who answered in the affirma-
tive. Schrank did not reply and
walked back to his cell.
The prisoner spent very quiet day
in the small enclosure to which he is
confined saying he was willing to
take whatever was coming to him"
Schrank has made his will, it was
learned today through a fellow prison
er. One Of it's provisions is that the
missile which probably would have
killed Roosevelt but for the double
manuscript and m9tallic specta Gle
case through which it passed be given
to New York historical society and
be placed uopn exhibition with the
gun in the rotunda Of the capitol build
ing at Albany.
Schrank, the deputy says, told one
Of his fellow prisoners that he desires
the bullet and revolver to be a con-
slant reminder to posterity OF the
danger of attempting to violate the
third term-tradition."

T., s. SENATOR HEPBURN DEAD.
End Comes in Washington After
Lingering Illness.

Washington, October 17.-United
States Senator Weldon Brinton Hey
burn, of Idaho, died at his apartments
here tonight, after lingering illness,
He was so years old and had been in
the Senate nine years.
A complication of diseases involving
the heart and kidneys caused the SEN
ator's death. He had not been we'll
since last March, when he collapsed al
ter delivering a speech in the senate
on the arbitration treaties, in spite OF
doctors warnings that the effort might
cost him his life. Several weeks ago,
apparently gaining strength after a
serious relapse, the Senator and Mrs.
Hepburn made preparations for trip
West. Another relapse, however, pre-
vented them, and since then the pa
tient had been growing steadily weak
er. Today the doctors thought he was
slightly improved, but death came sud-
denly a few minutes before 8 o'clock
tonight.
No arrangements have been made
for the funeral, but the body will be
taken to the old home of Senator Hey
burn, in Birmingham, Pa, for burial.
Senator Hepburn was born in Della
ware, May %, 1852, his parents being
Quakers of English descent. After be-
ing admitted to the bar in 1876 he
practiced law continuously until he en-
tered the senate He married Miss
Ghenetein Yeatman, who survives him.
They had no children.
In 1883 the senator moved to She
shone, Idaho, which had been his home
ever since He was member OF the
Idaho constitutional convention and
had served as a delegate to the Ma
tional Republican convention, and as
Republican national committeeman.
January 13, 1903, he was elected to the
senate, and in January, 1909, was
unanimously reelected to serve until
1915. AS one of the stanchest of the
Republicans, Senator Helburn had for
years been a conspicuous figure in the
State. He was most widely known,
perhaps, for his unyielding bitterness
toward the South and frequent denun-
Citations of Southern civil war leaders
He called the placing of Lees statue IN
the capitol an insult to the nation,
and in discussing this and many other
incidents engaged in acrimonious de-
bates with Southern senators.
During the past few years, since the
development of serious division in the
Republican ranks, Senator Hepburn
had played a prominent part in the
fight for party regularity.
The senator's wide range of infor-
nation, fine memory and readiness ol
speech always assured him of atten-
ton when he arose to speak on any
subject.
