The presidential primaries have
been a surprise in more ways than
one. We have already referred to
the lavish use Of money in several
states, showing that the chief evil
1t was thought to eliminate by the
new system is If possible more RAM
pant than ever. But an ever greater
surprise is found in the fact that
SO few voters of either party took
sufficient interest to cast their bal
lots. Massachusetts Republicans, for
example, cast hundred thousand
fewer votes than at the last presi-
Dental election, while the Democrats
polled little more than 20 per cent
of their voting strength. The latter
is easily understood, for the Demo-
cratic campaign was not hot one.
But the Republican contest was the
fiercest the Bay state has known
since the days of bluff old Ben But
Ter. Much the same story might be
told in Pennsylvania, Illinois and
several other states. 1t can hardly
be ascribed to lack of interest in
the final outcome. More likely 1t
means that an extraordinary num-
Der of both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis propose to wait till the issues
are fully made up, and then to vote
independently. Party ties were new
er so weak in a national election as
they will be next November.

Odell was taken to the lookup by
Jacob Lurey, a shoemaker in lower
Main street, Lurey charging that Sub
er had stolen a pair of shoes from
him. Suber was placed in the middle
cell and locked up. Near the top Of
one of the walls are several iron bars
protecting a small square hole to al
low the passage of air from one cell to
another. Suber priced a plank from
the floor of his cell and managed to
bend one of these iron bars, and
through an opening which hardly looks
sufficiently large for the passage of a
large cat he made his way to the next
cell, which was unlocked, and too: his
departure. Suber had not been recap

If those newspapers which are Ia
menting the defeat of Attorney Gener-
al Lyon and speaking in more or less
sarcastic terms of Mr. Peoples lack of
experience would bark back some six
years they would find Attorney Gen
eral Lyon entering upon the duties of
his Office with very little experience.
This lack of experience is all that we
have seen urged against Mr.. Peoples.
He is a young man who created ia
vorable impression everywhere dur
ing the campaign, who has the en-
dorsement of his home people, and
who has been declared the choice OF
the South Carolina Democracy for the
position. But he has one unpardon-
able sin in the eyes of some of the
newspapers-the fact that he is re-
garded as political friend and sup
porter of Gov. Blease.

Gov. Woodrow Wilson, it was an

York on Saturday night, will not make
any more campaign speeches until Col.
Roosevelt is able to get back into the
campaign. AS soon as Gov. Wilson
learned that Col. Roosevelt was
wounded, he made an effort to cancel
all his engagements, but found it i'm
possible to cancel those for the past
week. This is very high position for
Gov. Wilson to take, and will meet
the approval of the voters of the coun-

The position of the bullet which so
nearly cost Col. Roosevelt his life was
fixed with precision for the first time
tonight. Another X-ray photograph,
the third, was taken today, and from

lay on the outside of the broken rib.
Until this photograph was taken the
physicians had been unable to say
positively whether it was on the out
side or the inside Of the rib.

"We know definitely now that the
bullet lies outside of the rib, where it

HITCHCOCK FAVORS
PARCELS POST BILL
Declares 1t Will Aid High-Cost-of'
Living Prob
lem.

Viewing the Bourne parcels post bill
as the most scientific and business lik 9
measure offered the country, Postmas-
ter General Hitchcock repeated his re-
cent Endorsement sf the measure in u
statement issued yesterday, coincident
with his transmission to the Senate
Ptstoffce Committee of a formal re-
port on the measure.
The enactment of the proposed par
cells post bill will aid materially In
solving the gh-cost-of-lving prob

and consumer into closer proximity.
The local system of parcels post de-
livery by city letter carrier will meet
the demand for a cheaper and more
ready exchange Of small wares of al
kinds in the larger towns and In

The Bourne bill fixes a limit of eleven
pounds for parcels and provides for q

'HUTCH|NS' WIDOW
NOT TO CONTEST
WILL OF HUSBAND
Declares She Would Be Sole
Loser by Probate of Docu-
ment in Question.

Although she questioned the validity
OF the document and the mental ca
pacity of her husband at the time 1t
was executed, Mrs. Rose Keeling Hutch
insj today definitely Informed the Dis
trict Supreme Court that she would
not legally attack the latest purported
will of Stilson Hutchins, over whose
$4000,0O0 estate bitter litigation is immi-
nent.
The widow of the millionalre\ points
out that she would be the sole financial
loser by the probate of the will in ques-
ton, which bears the date of October
20, 1910, but that she does not feel JUS
titled in filing a caveat. and does not
belize 1t Is her duty.
However, Lee Hutchins, son, has
expressed his intention of contesting the
probate of the will in question, declar-
ing that he will prove that his father
died 1ntestate.
Mrs. Hutchins expressed her position
in the case today in an answer to the
petition of Walter S. Hutchins, son,
and Charles l.. Frailey, two of the ex-
ecutors, for the probate of the latest
will.
1t is denied by Mrs. Hutchins that her
husband owed debt aggregating 1891 522
saying that the Indebtedness of the es-
tate will not exceed $650,00o. She stated
that the current expenses are $40 W
q month instead of $1,000 q month, as
claimed by the two executors.
Relative to a contest of the will dated
October 26, 1910. Mrs. Hutchins advances
the allegation that her husband was
mentally incompetent from September,
1909, and the circumstances are knowh
by other members of his family whu
are interested in his estate. She sug-
gests II such persons are dis satisfied
with the term of the will that they may
seek redress in the courts. but says
positively she will make no contest.
Undue influence was practced on her
husband in the execution of the latest
Will, according to Mrs. Eutchins. She
names no persons who exercised the
influence.
The question of the appointment OF
a collector for the estate will come uE
before Justice Wright on Wednesday.
