Brothers Jailed on Murder Charge,

Maysville, Ga, Sept. S.--Two bro
theirs OF John Haywood, who died
upon the scaffold at Gainesville Fri
day, are now confined in Jail at Ho-
mer awaiting trial for murder in
Banks Superior Court. They are
charged with killing an old man
named Murray last week.
The Haywood brothers are sons of
an old Confederate soldier, who died
from poveryt and neglect, it Is said.
They have led a hard life and now
all three sons may come to the same
untimely end for the same crime and
within the same year.
From evidence at the coroner's in
quest 1t appears that Pink and Ho-
mer Haywood killed the old man
without provocation in a drunken
row near Homer.
They were arrested by the coroner
and placed in jail at once.

Eighth District,

The Eighth Kentucky district was
composed Of ten counties having 163
votes, of which eighty-two were neces.
sary to a choice. There was no con-
test In five Of the counties, and al
though the Roosevelt men claimed that
there was one In Spencer county no
contest was presented against the
seating of the regularly elected Taft
delegates from that county. This gave
the Taft delegates eighty-four votes, or
two more than were necessary for a
choice. In other words, assuming that
the Roosevelt men were entitled to all
the delegates from the counties In
which they filed contests in the dis
trict convention there remained a clear
majority of uneontested delegates who
voted for the Taft delegates to Chi
cago.

OKLAHOMA.

In the Third Oklahoma district the
question of the validity of the seats of
the delegates turned on the constitu-
ton OF the congressional committee.
which was made up of twelve Taft
men and seven Roosevelt men. The
chairman. Cochran, was a Roosevelt
man and attempted to prevent the ma.
jority Of the committee from taking
action. The chairman was removed
and another substituted, and thereupon
the convention was duly called to order
on the temporary roll prepared by the
congressional committee, which was
made the permanent roll, and the two
Taft delegates to Chicago were duly
selected. Every county in the district
had its representation and vote in the
regular convention, and no person
properly accredited as a delegate was
excluded or debarred from participat-
Ing in its proceedings Cochran and
his followers bolted after his deposi-
ton Assuming that all the committee
who went out with him had the right
to act on the committee, 1t left the
committee standing twelve for Taft
and seven for Roosevelt, so it was sim
ply a question whether a majority of
the committee had the right to control
Its action or a minority. The boiling
convention which Cochran held was
not attended by a majority of the duly
elected delegates to the convention. It
did not have the credentials from the
various counties. and its membership
was largely made up of bystanders
who had not been duly accredited by
any county in the district Its action

Second District.

In the Second Texas district there
were fourteen counties. Two counties
were found not to have held conven-
lions and one county to have no dele
gate present The convention was
then constituted by the delegations
that held regular credentials The re-
port of the committee on credentials
was accepted upon roll call; and then
the representatives OF FIVE counties
withdrew from the hall. The repre-
sentaives OF four Of these counties
held a rump convention. The regular
convention remained In session several
hours, appointed the usual committees,
which retired and made their reports,
which were accepted. and elected two
Taft delegates to the national conven.
bon and certified their election In due

In the Thirteenth Indiana there was
no question about the victory Of the
Taft men, because the temporary chair
man representing the Taft side was
conceded TO have been elected by one,
half a vote more than the Roosevelt
candidate. This one-half vote extended
through the riotous proceedings, and
although II was not as wide as a barn
door 1t was enough. The chairman put
the question as to electing the Taft
delegates, and after continuous objec-
ton lasting three hours declared the
