endeavoring to compel senators to
vote for the measure against their

White House Calm.
The calm manne In which II was
taken at the White House tended
still more to allay excitement. While
Senator Walsh, a Democratic mem

made the motion that any senator
might be recalled to answer questions
as to whether the president has sought

neck AND NECK N
SEReEAaTCI FIGHT.
EVE OF ELECTION Shows CLOSE
RUN BETWEEN GRIGGs AND
AZ sATTERFTELD.
70 r MI NC STATES
TEMPERANCE QUESTION INJECTING
ITSELF INTO THE CANVASS
WITH sATTERFIELD- AS
POLITICAL GOAT.

With three days in which to finish
the race the candidates for legisla-
tive and municipal offices are losing
no time in chasing down the pros
pective voter. Upon the eve of the
election the fight for municipal prefer
ment Is exceedingly hot and doubtful
as to result.
The campaign started along the
even tenor of its way. with the in
cumbents leaning on their oars, sail
ing down the river %serenely. Then
other candidates jumped in the field,
the original aspirants got busy with
he oars and now the race is anything
but a slow n and there Is no telling
which Of the candidates will head to-
ward salt River"
In the city ~sergeantcy fight it is
neck and neck between Griggs and
Satterfield. Both are spending sleep
less nights in their eagerness to see
all the voters possible. They have
scores of Woodworking and earnest
friends who are doing all possible
to help their favorite to victory.
Switch In Support.
One of the remarkable things about
this fight Is that Griggs has many
of the original Satterfeld men work
Ing for him, while Satterield has
many of the original Junk Smith
men on his staff of supporters. Sat
terfleld beat Smith at the last cleo
ton, h vote being: Satterield, 2,3T7;
Anthony, 2,078; Smith, 1,771. Smith
was the incumbent. Many of the
Anthony supporters are with Griggs.
The Southside vote Is an unknown
quantity in the canvass. The Satter-
field men concede the Southside to
Griggs, but claim the north side OF
Madison ward. Griggs men claim
Jefferson and Clay wards, but con-
cede Lee ward to Satterfield by a
small majority.
Sheriff and Commissioner.
In the fight for sheriff Mercer
claims election by a good majority,
while Johnson declares that he has
made sufficient inroads upon the re-
sources Of the sheriff to insure his
election.
Howle has been making a sort of
hurricane run within the past week,
n mas gained many votes. Peasants
appears to he going along smoothly,
while the Tresnon forces are over
looking nothing and the claim is being
made by his friends that Tresnor
will get as many votes as the COM
bined opposition.
On wednesday night the Griggs
forces expect to hold a mass meet
ing at h City auditorium. at which
leading Griggs men will speak. Thu
Satterfeld- men are arranging for 6
big meeting at Liberty hall the same
night Aside from these two meet.
ings there are no regularly scheduNx
meetings to be held. although tn,
workers will get together at con
venlent points and prepare for tn
battle of the 18th.

PECTED TO LIVE,

- WASHINGTON, June s.-Prompt
action by her husband has probably
saved the life of Mrs. H. B. Sanford,
of this city, who last night took three
bichloride of mercury tablets, mis-
taking the powerful corrosive poison
for asperin. She is still i'll at the
Casualty hospital, but the physicians
express reasonable confidence that she
will recover
Last night Immediately after dinner
Mrs. Sanford complained of a head
ache. She left the living room and
went to the bathroom, where she
picked up a small bottle. rolled five
OF the tablets into the palm OF her
hand and reduced them to a powder.
She then took the dose. Returning to
the living room she complained to
Mr.. Sanford that h felt burning
sensations in her throat.
Given Whites of Eggs.
The husband, who Is an experienced
pharmacist. employed in the United
States maynard. made a hasty exami-
nation Of the bottle. Instantly he
was convinced Of the danger con-
fronting his wife. First he fed to her
the whites OF eight eggs and then as
fast as feet could carry them, the
couple started on a run for the hos
pital.
Emetics were administered and
the stomach pump applied. Mrs. San
ford had just before eaten a hearty
meal and the physicians believe that
this will have a tendency to minimize
the danger.
The physicians say Mrs. Sanford's
case Is hardly analogous to hat OF
Saunders Walker, the Georgia banker
whose sensational case awakened ma
tional interest last month. Walker
did not discover his danger until after
the poison had been in his system
for a day. Mrs. Sanford was under
treatment a few minutes after the
accident
A Strange Case.
At the Casualty hospital the house
staff are much puzzled by another
bichloride poisoning case which came
to them a month ago. The victim
giving the name of william Curtin
arrived at the hospital on the night
Of May 6th. He said that he had
swallowed thirty grains of the poison
several hours before. He was given
the usual treatment and offered a bed
in the hospital. This he refused.
A night or two later he called again
and was given further treatment.
Since then he has not reappeared.
The doctors say that II Curtin is not
already dead II Is a marvel unless
his poisoning was a Pigment OF his
imagination.

he welcomed h disclosures of the
real facts about the inroads OF tho

But" he went on, "a campaign of
education will do more to arrest this
evil than a ton of well meaning reso-
buttons by religious bodies or a ten

ALWAYS HONOR
AMONG THIEVES

That there is not ALWAYS honor
among thieves was shown yesterday to
Squire Purdie. who. after having is
sued a warrant for one thief, issued
another warrant for another alleged
thief. charging that the money stolen
by the first alleged thief from the
second was stolen by the second from
from a third person. The matter
rests In this wise; Jesse Winford,
coiored, Is locked up on a charge of
stealing $17 from Mary Darden. Yes
terday appeared before the magis-
trate one saul i. Cutler, who swore
that Darden had stolen the money
from Mrs. Cutler. So Mary, accuse
OF Jesse, is also under lock and KEY.
and Justice Crutchfeld must decide
whether each alleged thief is equally
guilty n whether stolen property
a be stolen again.
