his fellows when he speaks on the floor
of the senate. One day last July he

there were only three men besides him

had been sitting in the cloakrooms. In
beginning his delayed speech he said:
IL do not understand the conduct OF
senators. l have seen them under all
phases. l have seen a senator leave
this chamber when he should stay here
to receive good advice. I have seen
him leave this chamber when by re-
manning he could have given good ad-
vice. The only thing l never saw a
senator do was to back out Of the door

nounced their willingness to return to
Virginia without requisition.
Edwards, for the love of whom Miss
Maude IrOler, of Mount Airy, Va, had

tectives and officers surrounded it.
Edwards was trying to escape by
crawling through the front end of the
car when the officers caught him. The
arrest of Sidna Allen was effected
earlier in the day.
A visit to Edwards to Miss Iroler
in her Virginia home about a month

put the detectives on the trail. The
fugitives had been in Des Moines
since April 2S. Allen, under the name
Of Tom Sayre. worked as a carpenter
