merly resi- ded south west of BaraboO
and went to Oregon number of
years ago. The account of the sad
accident in the paper reads in part IS
follows:
Renas A. Wood was Academia ally
killed while saving lumber at his
brothers. sawmill at Eddyville by
falling on his saw. The exact way
In which he fell will never be known.
The only plausible theory as to the
cause was the turning of a weak ankle
of which he had been complaining
for some time previous to the accident
He and wife and little boy had been at
the home of his mother near Chitwood
the week before the accident, and he
returned to the mill Sunday afternoon
to begin work on Monday morning.
He and his brother, Rufus, were the
only ones at the mill at the time.
Rufus was acting as engineer and
fireman while the other operated the
saw. 1t is presumed that he fell onto
the saw with his left arm which
caught between the saw and guides,
pulling his body into the saw severing
the juggler vein which caused his in
slant death. His brother at once mott
fed the neighbors of The accident,
who released the body, which was

 GOV. WILSON

Sea Girt, Aug. 1.-W. H. Sanford, a lawyer of Alabama. held a. confer ence with Governor Wilson, today, following the submission of his plan to Chairman McCombs, a few days ago. The schoolteachers, both men and women, are the most influential body of people in the United States" said Sanford, "and most of them are for Wilson. I came to urge the governor to take advantage of their willingness to advance the interests of his can6i- dacy."
 Governor Wilson said he would have Representative Ollie James, of Kentucky, as a lunch guest, today, and that they would discuss plans for pthe notification ceremonies. He also expected to meet a delegation. of a dozen Democrats from the District of Columbia.
 Henry Mergenthal, who is likely to be treasurer of the campaign com mittee, and Willard A. Salisbury. Delaware national committeeman and member of the campaign committee, conferred with Governor Wilson, ear ly today.
 After his meeting with Representa- tive Redf1eld, of Brooklyn, yesterday afternoon, Governor Wilson, from a chance remark, gave his position on tariff revision. When told that Red. field had said he was for downward revision at a speed that would not damage business, Governor Wilson said:

TOM ROMAN DEAD
 IN NEW YORK CITY
FORMER BRIDGEPORTER WHO WON FAME AS 4sBOwERY DEPEW'' WILL BE BURIED .
 HERE.

Former Alderman Thomas F. Roman of the old Fourth Ward, who left Bridgeport to win fame in New York city as "the Bowery Depsw,'' died in New York city Tuesday evening. Ro- nan was for many years a local celeb rity and in New York city he won considerable prominence for his po1ft- ieai speeetes.s his efforts being reward ed by various political positions. Hs launched into the. newspaper field with publications in New York and vicinity which for a time met with fair measure of success.
 Roman was noted for his freedom of speech, and his readiness to use sar~ casm when he felt so disposed. One of these outbursts, during visit from New York city several years ago, was directed against Captain George H. Arnold of the detective bureau. It resulted in the captains threatening Roman with physical violence and the latter's complaining to the city ofd- cials of Arnold's attitude. Knowing Romans disposition the officials paid little heed to his complaint.
 Roman is remembered in many sta tions as the man who first gave to Chauncey Depew the appellation. "the peach" which has remained with him ever since. Roman was in the storm center of numerous political battles, and from the back end of carts was wont to arouse big throngs of listen CTS as he disserted on the political is- sues of the day in the Bowery. fsf
 Roman had been estranged from his local connections for some time. He is survived by a widow and grown family. The remains will arrive in this city tonight and will be taken to the home of Patrick Fitzgerald, Cath erine street. Funeral services will bs held Saturday.

OROZCO
 DEFIES UNCLE
 SAM'S MEDDLINC

Fl Paso, Tex, Aug. 1.-More than 800 Mormon refugees from the noun tain colonies of Chihuahua have been added to the refuge camp. Those com ing today are from the remote colo- nies of aGrcia, Pocheco and Chichupa, the latter more than 60 miles from the railroad.
 The lumber camp here is becoming badly overcrowded and the tents which the government is sending here have not arrived from St. Louis. En- route from the colonies to Pearson, three women gave birth to children travelling over mountain trails in farm wagons The condition of many of the women and children reaching here is pitiful-
 Americans here are incensed over a statement from Orozco to American Consul Edwards, at Juarez, that he does not recognize the United States government Edwards called at Ofoz- co.'s headquarters to deliver note from Secretary of State Knox notify ing the rebel chieftain that nistreat- ment of Americans in northern Mexico must stop or Orozco would be held re- sponsibie.
 Orozco told Edwards that he would not receive him as an American rep resentative, but that personally he was glad to see him. He accepted Ed wards note on these terms and Ed wards left.

GRACE SHOT SELF" DEFENSE
 O HIS WIFE

Atlanta. Ga. Aug. That Eugene 1T. Grace shot himself following a b1t- ter dispute with his wife was the ex- 1planatfon of the shooting of the attorneys, today, outlined as their an- swer to the charge that Mrs. Grace attempted his murder.
 k Attorney Branch, of the defense counsel, suddenly changed his plans when court met, today, springing to the new defense for the first time since the mysterious shooting on March 5. It had been planned to place Mrs Grace on the stand as the first witness for the defense but the attorneys decided at once to lay the foundation for their charge of att tempted suicide by calling witnesses whose identity they have carefully said she hoped to take the stand late this afternoon.
 When Fulton court convened, to- day, Mrs. Daisy Opie Grace faced the ordeal of clearing herself on the witt ness stand against a. carefully con- structed circumstantisl case which the prosecution has woven around the theory that the woman plotted to murder her husband for his $25, ,000 life insurance.
 Among the earliest arrivals at the courtroom, Mrs. Grace appeared cheerful and expressed supreme con- fidence in her ability to sweep away the prosecutions case. It was evil dent, however, that she dreaded fac ing the accusing eyes of her husband as he lies on his cot.
 1t was believed that the defense would ignore the socalled 'abili let ters in attempting to refute the states evidence. The prosecution failed in any way to connect Mrs. Grace with them although Solicitor Dorsey cleverly managed to get into the record a part of one of his long arguments.
 Defense attorneys expressed them selves as we'll pleased with Judge Roan's ruling on the ''aIibi 1etters'' The court admitted the communica- tions but there is no proof of their authorship and the ruling specifically provided that if the defense proved that they were in Grace's f1andwrit- ing they would thereupon be ruled out.
 The defense announced it's list of 14 witnesses. Among these were in- cluded two physicians and a trained nurse who are expected to give testi- come mother.
 A long controversy was precipitated by Attorney Branch's bitter denuncia- ton of the prosecutions course. He insisted that every fibre of the states case was rotten" and that their theory that Grace was shot during the night
 was utterly untrue and wholly ridi- culous."
 Solicitor Dorsey objected to the criticism but the court permitted him to continue.

GEORGIANS ASK FOR IMPEACHMENT
 OF JUDGE STEER Jurist, With Tears Streaming,
 Denies Charges Brass Band and Ovation Greet
 His ACcuSerS

Macon, Ga, Aug. Hundreds of signatures had been obtained today to a petition demanding that Congress take up the charges upon which Col one1 w. A. Huff, for 10 years mayor, and one of the most popular residents of this city, demands the impeachment of Judge Emery Speer, of the United States district court. The petition points out that Colonel Huff's char acter is unimpeachab1e and that the charges are so serious as to reflect both upon the moral and professional conduct of, the jurist. Judge Speer has announced that some other federal judge will pass upon the contempt proceedings he has brought against the former mayor. Meanwhile, Col onel Huff is out on bail and he stat ed today that he had received offers of unlimited funds for his fight from friends. here. He positively refused to withdraw or modify a. single allega- tion made against the jurist.
 Judge Speer. with tears streaming down his cheeks, denied each charge separately from the bench and said that Huff was in a. conspiracy against him.
 While Judge Speer was passing to his place on the bench, a great crowd filled the court and many tried to get clOSe enough 10 OOlOneI HUH Io Sudhc hands with him and assure him of their support. Speer sat glunly in his chair for several minutes while this was going on. He then arose and em- pIfatically denied each of the allega. tions his accuser had brought against him. The judge denounced the news papers for printing the charges and the newspaper corr espondents for sending them broadcast throughout inc country
 As the judge continued his emotion overcame him and the tears were streaming down his face when he f1n- ished. Then he announced that he would admit Huff to bail and would ask an associate judge to pas upon the contempt proceedings.
 Last evening a large crowd headed by band proceeded to Colonel Huff s home and serenaded him. Some o1 the more radical wanted to proceed to Judge Speer's home and hang, him in efigy, but the conservatives per- stIaded them not to.
