GOV. DENEEN Is SQUARELY
OUT FOR PRESIDENT TAFT.

Springfield, Ill.-"Taft and De-
neen' has become the cry of the Re
publican party in Illinois.
Led by Governor Deneen, the state
organization and all of the state can
didates declared without reservation
for the national ticket.
Gov. Deneen, speaking before 1,5OO
republicans in the hall of representa-
tives, said Col. Roosevelt has no just
cause for objection to the course OF
Illinois either before or since the ma
tional convention in Chicago.
There We're only ~thirty-four SER
ious contests in the Chicago onven
tion,'' he said. land Col. Roosevelt
told me so himself, asking me to
modify the resolution which offered
to include only the thirty-four. l
did not do so and kept the figures of
contests at the number which had
been agreed to originally by Gov.
Hadley and the Roosevelt managers.
Those thirty-four delegates, had
they been seated in Col. Roosevelt's
favor, would not nave changed the
result. He would not have been NOM
mated.
He protested against the southern
and the territorial delegates but to
my personal knowledge it was Theo-
lore Roosevelt eight years and four
year ago who prevented a change in
the system of selecting those dele
gates, a change for which the Illinois
delegation voted solidly.
"Then Col. Roosevelt demanded
that Illinois bolt. | refused to bolt
then and j refuse to bolt now.
Il am for the republican ticket
ad it is my judgment, after a month
of active campaigning in Illinois, that
the republican nominees will carry

Hears Fatal Shot Fired.
Shortly before 8 o'clock, Tuesday
morning, she heard muffled report
IN the front bedroom, where Charles
Harms. a roomer, sleeps. He leaves
the house at O'Clock each morning.
Investigation showed that an old
chair had been placed against the
front window of Harms room, the
window had been forced open by the
desperate woman, who had probably
walked the streets all night, contem-
plating suicide, and had then return
ed TO the house at dawn, and watched
until Harms left the house. She
knew that he had revolver In the
drawer of his dresser. IN.
Mr., Winegarden, entering the room
when he heard the shot, found Mrs.
Green's body stretched out on the bed
with blood streaming from wound
In the head. She had placed the bar
rel OF the revolver in her mouth. and
the bullet crashed through her skull,
emerging above the right ear.

the dying woman TO st. Mary's hos

Coroner Burgess took charge Of the
case.
Mrs. Winegarden, cousin of the
dead woman, gave a brief history OF
Mrs. Green's life tragedy.
Surrounded by all the comforts
that so with wealth and position, the
young woman was courted, some Ave

Her folks objected TO Green, but the
headstrong young woman left home,
declaring that she was going to visit
an aunt, and eloped, instead, with
Green. They were married in To-
ronto. and came to Detroit to live.
Six months after her child was
born, Mrs. Green left her husband, al
leging that he abused and mistreated
her, and went hack to her mothers
home, In Toronto.
Shortly afterward, a woman with
three children, called at the home OF
Mrs. Green's mother, inquired for
Mrs. Green, and announced herself as
the legal wife OF Roland Green, who.
she said, had deserted her in Eng

said that she had finally obtained
