HENEY SEES PLOT.
Heated arguments followed a re-

Welt delegation. who said he had
heard there was a movement on foot
to disfranchise all delegates from the
sovereign state California, if these
votes were needed"
Rosewater's gavel raped loudly

not be allowed TO come in here and
insult the committee on the strength

Colorado. During the discussion De-

CONFLICT IN CLAIMS.
There is no reconciling the con-
/ ficting claims Of the Taft and Roose-
Welt managers regarding the re-
spective strength Of their followings;
each is figuring into his tables dele
cations emphatically claimed by the
other on the strength OF convention
endorsements, alleged pledges and
other more or less substantial
grounds.
Reasonably dependable, however,
seem the figures collected by the AS
sociated Press, from which can be
derived what may be described as
the bare bones" of the situation.
I These figures, which are unofficial,
and by no means guaranteed, are as
follows:

the court Of criminal appeals on June
%, 1909, and 2 question as t0the legal
ity of the appointment OF the tria
Judge was the ground for setting aside
The verdict and again ~remandlng the
| case for a new trial. The fifth tria
of the ease resulted in no verdict as
to penalty, one juror standing out fol
life imprisonment, while the Others
demanded the death penalty.
Owing to the strong l'eeling against
Oates in this country the authorities
considered it advisable to remove him
to some place Of safety. For a time
he was kept in the Cleburne Jail and
then he was taken to the Ellis county
jail in Waxachie, where he is now
awaiting his execution.
When the Oates case came up for its
sixth trial in this county. Judge Rob-
ert l.. Seay of the criminal district
courS of Dallas county, acting upOa his
own motion. transferred the case to
Ellis county. The sixth trial again
resulted in the conviction of the pris.
IN and a sentence of death. Once
an appeal vas taken and the
Court OF Appeals granted a new trial
upon the ground that the verdict OF
the jury did not specify The degree OF
,nurder of which Oates had been found
guilty.
The seventh and list trial, which
took place in WaXachie, resulted, on
November a, 1911, in Il verdict of
guilty Of murder in the first degree
and a sentence of death. A motion FOR
a %rehearing was refused by the court
of criminal appeals Oh October 16, OF
the present year and the date of the
execution Of the sentence was set for
next week. In the lower courts fou!

DALLAS. Tex. Nov. 23.-Aftcr hay,
ing tried for murder seven times, sen
fenced to death six times and having
spent nearly eight years in prison
pending his trials, Eurrell Oates, a
negro, will be hanged next week at the
WllnahaChie prison to pay the penalty
for the murder Of Sol Arnoif in Dallas
on the night OF November 20, 1904
This will bring 10 an end the most re.

ton Of the possibilities offered by the
criminal court practice in vogue in this
country, to delay the curse OF justice
by recourse to legal bubbles owe
mere technicalities. the case has prob
ably no equal in American court his
tory.
Story of the Crime.
Sol Arnoif, the victim Of the crime,
and his wife kept a small grocery store
near the railroad tracks in this city.
On the night Of the murder Burrell
odltS. IlOIlS van anu IluilN hSNuC,
the latter two white men, entered Ar
onoff's store ard held up the proprie-
tor. While they were robbing the MAI
Mrs. Aronoff entered the store and
fired at the men. The robbers fired
several shots and II of these killed
Aronoff. A few days later the three
men were arrested and charged with
the murder Of AronOff. Van was con-
victed Of murder and hanged for his
crime. McCue became states evl
dence and escaped punishment.
Defendant Mas Broke.
Oates had no funds to employ an at
torney and Whel his trial came up III
the Dallas court, the judge appointed
A. S. Basket, a young lawyer. against
the ~latter's protests. to defend the
negro. Ever since that time Basket
has been in sole charge OF the defense
and the fight he made for his client
has attracted wide attention and will
so down in the history of criminal
Jurisprudence as one of the most re-
markable examples OF forensic skill
and perseverance.
The first trial CT Oates resulted IN
his conviction and sentence to death.
An appeal was taken to the Court Of
Criminal Appeals and the case was
remanded for a new trial Oh April II,
1905, on account Of an irregularity in
drawing the anne Of jurors.
At the second trial Oates vas again
convicted and sentenced to death,
Again an appeal was taken and on
May 8, 1906, the criminal court OF APP
peals granted a new trial because the
trial Judge mad failed to instruct the
Jury in his charge that if the wife shot
her husband by mistake the prisoner
vas not guilty Of murder.
Oates was again tried and convicted
but on May Is, 1907, the case was re-
verse1 by the court of criminal ~.
peals on the ground. that the trial
judge did not properly define murder
in his charge to the jury. After an
