 There are two Misses Blood teach CTS in the Barnum school One, Miss Lucy L. Blood. has been a member of the faculty for number of years. The other, Miss Margaret E. Blood. against whom complaint was made today is a teacher in Room G. She has not been there 70 long.
 After pr. H. R. Bennett had dress. ed and stitched the wound, which he found was two inches long, at the emergency hospital, the lad went to his home, at 131 Brooks street. The boy,S father, Charles w. Loomis, is a we'll known empioye of the Singer Mfg. Co.

 The youngster admitted that the teacher had told him to do something that he did not do, and said that she poked her umbrella at him. Appar- ently the steel point of the umbrella dug into the lads scalp.

Debs Likely To Be Candidate
 Of Socialists

Indianapolis, Ind, May 15--For pres- ident-Eusene VI. Debs. of Terre Haute, Ind.
 For vice-president-C Charles Edward Russell, of New York.
 That was the national Socialist tic- ket that the majority of the leaders in attendance on the national conven- tion of the party today desired nom- mated on Friday. But to get it en- dorsed by the rank and file was ad- mittedly likely to prove & difficult task Russell has been very radical in many of his utterances and several of the eastern leaders opposed htii on that account. In addition the Mill waukee contingent was fighting Debs tooth and nail. Debs, they said, had been honored too much and it was time for him to step aside and per- init someone else to lead the fight. They suggested former Mayor Emil Seidel.
 The big leaders of the party here believe that the, candidates of the Democrats and the Republicans for the presidency will be Bryan and Roosevelt and they want a man lead ing their fight who will be an oppor- tunist and can get the votes of the old party men who are opposed to these suggested candidates.
 A million and three quarters votes will be the battle cry of the Socialists in the coming struggle. And the leaders who desire that number of votes say the only ticket that can draw them is Debs and Russell.
 The question of the party platform was also troubling the delegates to- day. The radicals have submitted a number of suggestions but all have been turned down and the platform to be reported to the convention var fed little from the one on which the fight was made four years ago.
 Further consideration of the regular committee reports and resolutions oc- cupied most of the attention of the delegateS today

ROOSEVELT AND
 CLARK SWEEP CALIFORNIA

San Francisco, May 15.-Roosevelt has made a clean sweep of California and will get the entire twenty-six delegates to the national Republican convention according to returns n foday g from 2,169 precincts. out or 3,7OO Tn the state. These show, that Roosevelt has a large plurality oyer the com bined vote of Taft and LaFo11ette and that Clark has also carried the state by two and one half to one over Wfi- son.
 109; Taft, 1,703; LAFollette. 31, ,19e; Clark, 26,a64; and Wilson Il. .997. Most of these returns came from the five congressional districts in and about Los Angeles and San Francisco counties. Inasmuch as the Taft men relied upon San Francisco county to might receive in the state at large. these returns are believed to show ac- curately what the general result will be. Teddy carried San Francisco.
 Inasmuch as the presidential pri- mary law provides that all delegates to the national cqpventions shall be elected at large there is no doubt of the ColonePs having made clean sweep. The primary law binds all party delegates to abide by the result of the preference primary.
 Returns are very slow in coming in, but enough have been learned to indicate that scarcely more than one half the registered vote was cast. The vote of the women proved disap- pointment to those who expected the newly enfranchised voters to poll a tremendous vote.
 Apparently they took no more in- terest in the election than the men and like the vote of the men. their vote was extremely light everywhere.
 Champ Clark carried every district in the State. and his total vote, when all returns are in, will probably be at the rate of three to one over Wood row Wilson. It will be late today be- fore complete returns are available.

BISHOP BREWSTER TO ADMINISTER CONFIRMATION .AT ST. GEORGES TOMORROW

Rt. Rev. Dr. Brewster. bishop of Connecticut diocese of the Episcopal church will pay an official visit to St. Georges Episcopal church on Col orado avenue, tomorrow. Thursday night and administer the rite of con- drmation on class of 13 persons. Because of the size of the Connecticut diocese it has been necessary for the bishop to have assistants visit the diff ferent churches and there was some uncertainty as to- whether he would be able to come to St. Georges per- sonally. Word has been received to the effect that he elected to come to St. Georges and was received with a great deal of qualification. Bishop Brewster will ask for the appoint ment of a suffragan bishop at the convention in June.

Asks noIIe On
 Murder Charges

Assistant States Attorney Garter recommended this afternoon in the criminal Superior court that a nolle be entered in the murder cases of Rose Martello and Joseph DiLnccia of this city, charged with the murder of Rosario Martello. This action came after several conferences had been held by MT. Carter. Prosecutor De- Laney and Attorney George F. Mara the accused.
 Martello. who was said to have been killed by his wife and DiLuccia, kept a cobbler shop in West avenue. He met his death last November under circumstances. Mrs. Mar tello was suspected, but always pro- tested her innocence. In the city court probable cause was found but the assistant States attorney thought the evidence not strong enough to warrant a jury trial.

Stagg, of Stratford. long known as "the easy boss'', who had almost as many Dem ocratic votes behind him as Republl- can votes, was bluntly informed that neither advice nor counsel was desired from him, and the same tidings were conveyed to Judge Charles H.

 It is expected that Darrow will al- lege as his defense that Franklin was paid detective in the employ of the district attorney: that he entered the employ of the McNamara defense specifically to trap Darrow; that he staged the Lockwood bribery and the arrest of Franklin solely to ir- volve him in a chain of circumstan- tial evidence.

Mcfarland Duplicates
Deed of Kid M'Cov

Packey Mcfarland recently got
sweet revenge for the black eye
received, the only one during his
entire boxing career, at the hands
of Eddie Burns some weeks ago.
Beating Burns cruelty in their
scheduled 10-round bout at Ke-
nosha, Mcfarland refrained from
knocking his man out, a feat he
could have accomplished in the
first round had he cared to do so.
Landing at will, Mcfarland play
ed with Burns as cat does with
a mouse, hammering his oppon-
ent until he was on the verge of
a knockout and then permitting
him to freshen up in order to be
in line for more punishment. In
the eighth round, however,
Burns seconds mercifully threw
up the sponge, their man being
cut to ribbons and on the verge
of collapse.
This was a duplicate, in many
respects, of the second meeting
between Kid Mccoy, then in his
prime, and big Jack Mccormick,
we'll known as a wrestler, boxer
and trainer. Mccormick and
Mccoy met in the old Star theater
in Chicago in August, 1899, and
the betting was about 10 to l that
Mccoy would win. When the
gong started the men away Nc
Coy came out IL his corner lei
surely, that famous cruel smile
playing about his lips. He was
the embodiment of confidence and
eonceit, while Mccormick seemaa
frightened to death. Mccoy
tented Mccormick into a lead,
and for fully half an hour after
Mccoy did not know what had
happened. Mccormick led all
right, but what occurred surpris-
ed him as much as it did the au-
dience. The Kid tried to step In
gracefully, but he did not get in
far enough. Mccormick pom
derous fist caught him squarely
on the chin, lifted him off the
floor and down the Kid went on
the back of his head. 1t took a
half hour to bring him to. One
month later the men re-met in
New York. Mccoy was more care
full this time and was content to
jab, Jab, fab. literally tearing
McCormick's face to ribbons. In
the first two rounds Mccormick
was practically blinded, his nose
was smashed, his ears swollen
Like balloons and his mouth look
ed like a piece Of raw liver. Help
