while a harnessmaker by trade, had
made his living largely by pedling
He has a brother, Samuel, designer
in a clothing house in Toledo, and Mrs
Davidson has telegraphed him to come
on TO New York.
MY husband seems perfectly con-
tent with his condition" said Mrs. Da-
wilson. HE says he does not care
what happens to him. And whenever
ask him why he did this terrible
thing and brought me into all this
trouble, he always replies: I had TO
kill Zelig, because he beat me and made
me angry
Il think" went on Mrs. Davidson,
with shrug Of her shoulders, that he
had been drinking, and when'he was
beaten and robbed he got crazy and
killed him. But he did 1t himself, alone.
No one put him up to do it,
Jacob Sander. who conducts the
Odessa Tea Rooms, at No. 2S9 Broome
street, repeated last night that he did
not-as the prisoner declared--lend
Davidson $40 with which to buy the re-
volver, formerly the property Of Pat
rolman Christopher Maher, that killed
Zelig.
Davidson lies" said Sander. Il
have an alibi to show that could not
have lent it to him. A policeman on
this beat can prove 1t. He saw David
son run In here, all excited, at half
past Saturday night, when he says
he got SO from me, and he saw him
look around the tea room and, seeing
no one there, run out again. j don't
know the policeman's name, but Max
Herman, my waiter here, can also
prove it. Davidson is liar"
If Davidson did not get the money
from Sander, the question arises,
Where did he get the revolver? He
said he bought 1t in a Jersey City
pawnshop, but NJ. Mayer. the pawn
broker, picked out Sander as the
purchaser. Sandler-ln regard to
whom the pawnbroker Is undoubted-
ly mistaken - resembles Davidson in
no way.
Several East Side saloonkeepers and
cafe proprietors told yesterday Of
knowing Davidson as a trafficker in
women. One told a story of his SELL
ing East Side girls into slavery.
Armed at Funeral.
Little Billy" and others OF Zelig's
gangmen foregathered in Siegaps cof-
fee house, at No. rs Second avenue,
after Zelig was buried in Washing
ton Cemetery yesterday afternoon.

enough to express their condemnation
of his slayer. Thousands watched the
funeral procession as 1t passed
through the East Side from the home
of Zelig, at No 2S6 Broome street.
Many of Zelig's friends accompanied
the body to the grave, wearing Grape
and carrying revolvers, as they feared
an attack from some OF the Sirocco
gang.
Others less respectful OF Zelig's
memory mingled with the crowd Of
mourners and robbed them Of their
purses, stickpins and watches. Thirty
detectives under Captain Harry Foy, OF
the Central Office, tried to stop the
work of the dips" but the latter were
too quick for them.
The police, who were on duty around
the house to the number Of fifty, said
that they never saw so many pick
pockets, gangmen and all around crimi-
nails at any gathering before as attend
ed the funeral.
Sam" Paul and $50 members Of his
club, Of which Zelig was a member,
paid their last respects to the gang
leader by going to the grave In car
riages. The funeral was picturesque,
four cantors and ten choristers chant
ing the Hebrew service for the dead as
the body passed through the streets.
Bernard Sander, counsel to Sam"
Schepps, told yesterday Of a meeting
he had with Zelig on Wednesday in a
Franklin street restaurant. Zelig, he
said, wanted him to take a message to
Schepps, but the lawyer refused. He
would not say what the message was.
District Attorney Whitman said that
the death OF Zelig meant that Patrol
men Stenert and White. members of
Becker's strong arm squad, would go
free on the perjury charge brought as
the result Of Zeligs testimony.
But We are not through with that
case yet, even II they do go Free" he
added.

Mr.. Watterson and Baltimore.

The compliment which Henry Waiter

costing him for the Baltimore nominal
ton il well deserved, but not more than
a compliment. Mr.. Watterson is not an
aspirant for that honor. and has no
thought Of becoming one. Why should
not matters take a practical turn? Why

stow upon their most distinguished men,
Der a compliment which would mean
something to him. to them, and to the
party throughout the country?
Mr.. Watterson should be at Baltimore
In a capacity enabling him to participate
in the national convention in a way for
which he possesses exceptional quaiifi-
cations. Who so fit to head the Ken
lucky delegation? Who in that place
would give the state SO much distinction
at a time when the blue grass democracy
should desire to shine?
Note his talents for such work. He is
a speaker of rare power, and holds his
own in any company. In the matter OF

The Tickle Equadorian Mob.

The eccentricity of South American
politics was never more forcibly illus
trated than BY the lynching Of Montero at
Guayaquil, where a few months ago he
was a popular idol. Proclaimed president
in November by the troops stationed at
Guayaquii, Montero was at that time
probably the most admired man in Ecua-
dor. He made a mistake. however, when
he turned the leadership of the provision
al government over to Gen. Alfaro. A
revolution was promptly started. headed
by Gen. Plaza, who led an army to Quay
aquil, which was eventually captured.
Montero was taken prisoner by the Plaza
forces and after trial was condemned
10 sixteen years Imprisonment. There
upon arose a mob of citizens, wildly in
disnant at Montero for having suffered
defeat He was lynched I'm most afro
cious circumstances. and now public in
dignation against his assassins is raging
and he will doubtless be avenged in short
order. II is quite possible that the same
people who cheered him i'm November
helped to kill him in January. Popularity
i'm South America is a decidedly uncer-
tain quantity and leadership has its very
definite perils The great need of the
country south of the United States today
is stability. not merely OF institutions, but
OF individual temperament. 1t will not be
easy 10 cure this defect.

Emperor Williams outlook in the i'm
perial legislature recently elected is by
no means encouraging. The coalition
which has supported his ministry here
tofore has apparently lost control Of the
rechstag. According to late dispatches
from Berlin, the clerical-center bloc, con-
trolling oOS of the 397 votes at the last
session, has been overcome. the utmost
that it can depend upon in the new reich
stag being 1874 votes as against 2O3 COM
prised in the socialist, national, radical
and liberal groups. In these circum-
stances an imperial ministry working
along the heretofore established lines is
almost assured of defeat on the first Sc
rious issue Of imperial policy. for while
the opposition groups are not entirely
harmonious on all questions. they are
generally so on that of militarism and
colonial expansion. The socialists. with
ITO votes. comprise the largest single
group inn the reichstag and will proba-
bly, stand unitedly as a distinct anti-gOv-
eminent force. There Is little chance OF
a program of military extension carrying
against the opposition of the socialists
and radicals. No effective compromise
appears to be possible in view Of the
fact that the enforcement forces are
demanding first of all a reform of the
budget. involving a readjustment of tax
alton, and the spending OF larger sums
in domestic reforms. There il not room
for a combined program OF large mill
tary increases and social works such as
arc demanded by tho more radical ele-
ments in the reichstag. The nrst task

The Indian Memorial.

The movement for erecting here in
Washington an Indian memorial build
ing deserves enthusiastic encourage
ment. OF late years the Indian ques-
ton has been carefully and sympa-
thetically considered, and after many
serious mistakes it is in way of just
and humane adjustment. The Indians
themselves are moving forward with
the rest of the people, and it is due to
them that the white citizens Of the
United States should cooperate to pro
vide here at the capital place where
the story of the Indian can be told in
terms to encourage further efforts or
their part and in their behalf. 1t i:

put upon a business basis without de-
lay, and that public subscriptions viii

the success of the undertaking in the
near future.

The Calvert Street Bridge.

1t would be perhaps a good plan for
delegations of representatives and sena-
tors to try to get across the Calvert street
bridge by carriage or motor car or street
car during the present process Of narrow
ing that structure. The Commissioners
have undertaken to reduce the "over-
hang which has carried the sidewalk
and part Of the roadway, in order to less
en- the vibration and render the bridge
approximately safe for use, without wait
ing for a specific appropriation or au-
thorization This work may be regarded
as necessary in the public interest, be-
cause an expert opinion has been given
that the wide overhang is dangerously
productive Of vibrations and strains. But
the narrowing of the roadway produces a
condition almost as bad as the original
insecurity. 1t is, Of course. preferable to
have q bridge that will surely stand, but
the deplorable feature Of the case is that
this must be done at the expense of
safety on the bridge itself. Already ac-
cidents have occurred on the bridge in
consequence of the work of narrowing
the roadway, and others will doubtless be
caused after it is finished, through the
lack Of room for a car and vehicle to
hoped that this condition will be borne
in upon the minds of the legislators SO
strikingly that the District bill will be
amended to carry an appropriation for a
new bridge Of sufficient strength to carry
cars travelling at good speed and wide
enough to permit vehicles to use the
bridge without risk of collision with the
cars. It must be remembered that bills
are pending in both houses Of Congress
for an extension of the Washington Rail-
way and Electric line across Rock creek
at the point of the Calvert street bridge
to give additional service to Cleveland
Park and the territory lying along Mas
sachusetts avenue extended. If 1t is the
serious intention Of the House and Senate
to pass this bill some provision must be
made in advance for q bridge that will
carry additional car traffic without the
slightest risk to the public. Meanwhile
the Commissioners might well consider
the advisability Of closing the Calvert
street bridge to all other than car and
pedestrian traffic and thereby reduce the
risk of accidents.

For Country Life.
From the Baltimore American.

Eom tue DdltlWOre American.
One of the most important of the gen.
eral recommendations made by President
Taft relates to the betterment of country
life conditions in America and the promo
ton of agricultural conditions. Here is
a country that has such vast agricultural
possibilities that the state of Texas alone.
1t Is asserted, could, if properly culti-
waited, furnish subsistence for the entire
world. Yet the agricultural areas are
but scratched over, and unreasonable
tracts are not susceptible Of cultivation
under present conditions. Maryland is
not one Of the major agricultural states.
but it is one of the most important in
respect to the variety and diversity Of its
agricultural conditions. 1t is a state
that is rich in agriculture and rich in
possibilities of its country life. There is
no reason why there should not be a
steady stream of immigrants into the
state whose addition to the productive ele-
ments of the counties would greatly en-
nance the value and attractiveness OF
Maryland soils.

MONDAYS Caucus.

The caucus called for Monday may
prove the most important step the demo-
Gratis of the House have taken. Discus
sion will range over a wider field than
on previous occasions. In fact, the party
policy for the session in it's most vital
aspects will be taken up, and should be
decided
What a tariff bill stands charged to do
i'm the way of increasing or decreasing
revenue Is a matter of estimate. Even
so-calied tariff experts differ on the
point. And party leaders differ even
more widely. Lowering the figures of
schedule may stimulate importations so
much the Treasury may show much
larger receipts. Or 1t may not. The most
successful tariff laws have shown sur
rrises as respects the calculations of their
trainers.
But appropriations as a rule are DEF
mite. Where there are estimates they
never prove too low. II public building
bill is estimated to carry given sum,
Uncle Sam may be certain every dollar
will be called for. and maybe more.
Where river and harbor work is ordered
IL is always certain to cost the top dollar
mentioned. And pension legislation mas
been based upon lines which have brought
the totals to high figure.
The democratic promise was to reduce
both taxation and expenditures. The
victory of November, 1910. was won by a
Joint cry for tariff revision and economy.
IL was charged against the republicans
that they laid taxes partly with the view
of enriching a few, and partly for the
purpose of making extravaganza appro-
priations. Monopoly and waste were the
offenses of republican rule as described
by the democratic leaders.
Are the democrats of the House to re-
deem that promise? Is ii in their power
to do so? They started in at the extra
session to reduce taxation. and while fail
ing then have now renewed the attempt.
But their economy promise Is in danger.
They have made some small reductions
here and there In appropriations, but they
are lost in the figures on the other side
of the account The Sherwood pension
bill totals an enormous sum, and a pork
barrel is at the door.
Mr. Underwood as floor leader and Mr..
Fitzgerald as chairman of the appropria-
tons committee are naturally much dis
turbed over the situation. In large
sense they are responsible for things. The
record of the House majority will be
prominent in the presidential campaign.
Ii II is good. the nominee Of the Balti-
more convention will benefit; II other
wise, he will suffer
Taxation will probably not be reduced
at ALL Maneuverings on both sides are
against that. But whatever money is ap-
propriated will have to be found, and II
the total of the session approximates the
record made by the republicans. the dem
ocrats will have to sing small in the cam
paign on the subject of economy.

handwrite-which the whole country
would recognise.
Note also that the tariff will figure
and that Mr.. Watterson has long stood
for very positive convictions on that sub
ject. AS long ago as the Tilden cam
paign-in 1S76-he was one of the men
who pledged the democracy to a tariff
for revenue only. Some Of his associates
in that contest afterward changed front.
But he never did. He has stood since.
and stands today, for the very things in
the nature OF tariff revision he stood for
then.
1t has been twenty years since Mr..
Watterson attended a national conven-
ton. He has three notable appearances
of that kind to his credit. He was the
temporary chairman Of the convention
that nominated Mr.. Tlden. He was
chairman of the platform committee OF
the convention that nominated Mr.. Cleve-
land the second time. and prevented the
democracy from backsliding on the tariff
for that campaign. And he was the
leader Of the contingent which at Chi
cago in 1892 forced on the floor Of the
convention a rejection Of the tariff strad-
die the platform committee was trying
to pass, and thereby made way for a
plank in keeping with the party's ira
ditions and professions.
Since then kentucky's part at such
meetings has been inconspicuous. In
1896 Mr. Watterson was in Europe when
Mr.. Bryan was nominated, and he
showed no desire to attend at either
Kansas City in 1900. st. Louis in 1904. or
at Denver in 1908. But why not at Bal
timore in June? AS he has renewed in
terest in party action on national ques-
lions, why should not his fellow-demo-
Gratis at home call him to the colors
again and give him task suited to his
talents and appealing to his tastes?

achieving passing notoriety and incl
dentally of committing suicide by drown

of crossing the ocean in an aerOplane
