BOYS DEATH DUE
TO MOB VIOLENCE

Scranton, Pa, May IA riotous
demonstration by foreigners at the
Olyphant colliery of the Delaware &
Hudson today resulted in the killing
of a 14-yeaT-Old boy by state troop
ers. The soldiers were riding down
crowd of rioters who were dis
playing firearms and hurting tones
and clubs at the state police. The
boy was standing in the front yard
of his home and mobs stood near de.
family daring the troopers to come
on.
AS the police moved forward sew
eral shots were fired by the crowd
The troopers and police were or.
dered to shoot. The shooting
cowed the rioters, but on learning
the boy was dead they gathered
force. The police appear to have the

READING NOVELS

New York, May IA thousand
volumes of detective stories, includ-
ing complete sets of Gaboriau, Sher-
lock Holmes and Nick Carter, were
found by detectives in the home Of
Harry Nelling o. Brooklyn, follow
ing his arrest on a charge of bur
glary. His object in reading detec-
tive stories, he said, was TO learn by
just what methods detectives were
able to trace criminals. After learn
ing those methods, he expected TO
find a way u avoid detection. Since
January last reports of thefts from
Brooklyn flats have been frequent,
about forty cases investigated show
ing that the same methods were used
in all The fact that the thefts al
ways we're committed in the day led
detectives to keep a watch on de
livery wagon drivers. Nelling was
driver for an oil company and was
among those watched. A search of
his home revealed some of the miss
ing articles.

combined to give the city a storm
that, because of the flood in the riv-
er, was the most threatening ever
known. The river is now falling
gradually after having exceeded all
flood records here by a foot and a
half. When the storm was at its
height, rain fell in sheets and the
wind blew gale. Hail added ter
ror. The river rose by leaps and
tapped across the leyees. Streets
were flooded to a depth of three to
- inches.
Light plants were flooded and
many parts of the city were in dark
ness. Street car traffic was inter
rupted.
GENERAL CONDITIONS ALARMING
The same alarming conditions pre-
vailed in all towns up and down the
river. In several towns the people
were panic stricken. At Baton Rouge
high waves washed out the new shop.

Contests Involving 164
Delegates Before Repub-
Iican National Body.
LEADERS MAKE CLAIMS
Managers of Taft and Roosevelt
Differ Widely in Boosted
Strength.

Washington, D. c., May II. - The
makeup of the republican national
convention, so far as the original Sc
lection of delegates can determine it,
will be practically settled within a
week. Over two hundred delegates
are to be selected in the eight days
ending Saturday next. About one
hundred will then remain to be chos-
en-, including AS from Ohio and "a
from New Jersey.
UP TO COMMITTEE.
The widely divergent claims of the
Taft and Roosevelt managers make
it apparent, however, that the deter
mination of the actual control of the
convention is impossible in advance
of the meeting of the republican ma
tional committee June 6. The COM
mittee will take up at that time con-
tests involving seats of at least 164
delegates and it is not unlikely that
additional contest cases will be an
nounced by the time the committee
begins it's work.
CLAIMS DIFFER WIDELY.
Up to this morning, 7S6 of the
| 1,O76 delegates to Chicago had been
chosen, according to the Roosevelt
estimates, while the Taft forces RECORD
/ 20 less. The differences arose ovel
! Maryland, where the Taft manager:
declare the control of 16 delegate!
will not be cleared until the state
convention next Tuesday and ovel
Kansas, where the Roosevelt records
show IA have been chosen and Taf
records 10.
WHO Is RIGHT:
Mckinley, head of the Taft cam
paign, claimed 4S3 for the presiden
and conceded 237 to Roosevelt. Dix
on, for Roosevelt, claimed 319 fo
Roosevelt and conceded 143 to Taft
The Roosevelt managers contend II"
delegates are uninstructed, including
SO from New York, and that 164 ar,
contested. Both campaign commit
tees give La Toilette Sc and Cum
Minis 10.
TWO WEEKS BATTLE.
Preparations for a two weeks bat
tie in Chicago over the seating 0
contested delegations are being com
pleted rapidly. 1t is expected al
cases will be filed by May 20, tn
date on which papers must be befor
the national committee.
Delegations whose seats will b
. contested, according to Dixon, tn
Roosevelt manager, are: Alabama
20; Arkansas, s; District of Colum
