John Crown RObS Woman,

She Shoots Him and He
Is Captured

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 3.--John Crown,
supposed to be a tramp who robbed
her home a week ago Tuesday, was
this morning shot in the mouth and
nose by Mrs. Thomas Shomo, of Juan
ita, near here, after a fierce struggle
at her home.
Crown turned and fled. He was
later arrested at Redmond by Spe-
cial Deputy Sheriff Frank Sidell,
According to Mrs. Shomo, who is a
widow, and owns ranch in Juanta,
Crown worked for her last Tuesday,
and during her absence pilfered every
thing Of value in the house. She did
not see him again until this morning,
when he forced himself into the house
by leveling a revolver at her. Mrs,
Shomo, following the robbery had al
so provided herself with a revolver
Crown, so Mrs. Shomo told Deputy
Sheriff Hill, forced her into her bed
room. There he struck her and threw
her to the floor, Mrs. Shomo said. He
was delivering some sort Of an ultima
tum to her, when she secured her re-
volver and fired at him.

Family Strong on Office
TUNITED PRESS LEABED WIRE. ]

Oregon City, Ore Jan. 3.--Barlow's
official family visited Oregon City New
Years day. Barlow Is unique in that
the municipal government is largely
vested in the members Of one family,
80 that nothing more serious than a
family tiff ever breaks the calm Of
Barlow's official life. W, s. Tull, the
head of the family is mayor Of Bar
low; Mrs. Tull his wife, is councilwo-
man; G. G. Tull, his son, Is council
man, and w. b. Tull, another son, is
treasurer.
SO that there shall be no monopoly,
James Erickskon is also a councilman,
and William Bowers, city recorder
The mayor says his councilwoman has
some pretty clearly defined policies
but that he controls a majority Of the
council and feels reasonably secure
More than this he did not think It the
best part Of either political or do
nestle wisdom to say.

Arkansas
Senator
Died Today


Washington, Jan. 3.-Ogt Of respect
to the memory of United States Sen
ator Jefferson Davis, Of Arkansas, who
died suddenly at his home in Little
Rock shortly after midnight, the SEN
ste adjourned today Immediately after
convening. This action prevented the
resumption of the impeachment trial
of Robert w. Archibald of the COM
merce court, charged with misconduct
in Office.
Senator Davis was undoubtedly the
most picturesque figure in the senate.
He was elected a member in 1907 and
made himself known from the first
day. Smashing all precedents,
Throughout his membership, he roast
ed the criminal rich" and ignored all
efforts of his colleagues to snub him.
Davis most recent exploit was the
Introduction of a resolution removing
tariff duties from New England's sa-
cred Goldfish" In support of his rcso-
luton he poked fun at Senator Lodge
Of Massachusetts,.
Davis boastcd that he had never
used an automobile and would never
pay to ride in one. He had the big
gest voice and the mast lurid vocabu-
larry of any member of the senate,
Davis pet hobbies were the south, the
negro question, trusts and the GRIMM
al rich.
In 1908, when Senators Gore, La
Toilette and Stone conducted a flibus-
ter against the Aldrich currency bill,
Davis wired from Arkansas as fol-
lows:
Hold the fort. | am coming"
He arrived too late, however, to be
of assistance.

Labor
Leaders
Released
Circuit Court Of Appeals
Grants Writand They Will
Be Given Freedom as Soon
as Their Bonds Are Filed
UNITED PRESS LEASED wIRn.l

[uNITED PRESS LEASED wIRE.l
Chicago, Jan 9.-Release on bonds
of the 80 labor leaders convicted last
week in indianapolis on conspiracy to
illegally transport dynamite from the
federal prison at Leavenworth, Kan,
was ordered here today by Justices
Baker, Seaman and Kohlsaat, sitting
as the United States circuit court of
appeals.
The court granted a writ of super
sedeas applied for by attorneys for
the convicted men after long battle
in,which the attempt to free them was
bitterly opposed by United States At
torney Charles Miller, who declared
that, if freed from Leavenworth, the
union men would flee the country and
could never be eXtradited back.
The court ordered. despite Miller's
objections that writ of supersedeas
issue and that the convicted men be
released Immediately on the presenta-
ton of the bonds required.
The government asked bonds for
President Ryan of the ironworkers, of
$4,000 or $4,000 for each year of his
sentence. The bonds asked for each
man sentenced to six years will be
100000 with the same ratio extending
throughout the entire list Of convicted
men down to the one-year men at
$4,000 each.
Besides the 30 days granted by law,
the court also allowed the convicted
men another 30 days for the prepara-
tion Of their cases for appeal.
Justice Baker said this would not
prevent the appeal coming up for
hearing at the April term of the
court of appeals here. The bonds
must be given f. Judge Anderson's
court.
In reading the dec ion Of the court,
Justice Baker said there might be
substantial error in the trial, so the
convictions would not stand He said
the court would admonish the gov
ernment in cases where application
had been made for a writ of error and
Isupeseadas not to ask for an immedi-
ate execution Of a sentence, but to al
low the defendants time to make such
application before their commitment
to prison.
After the courts decision, the at
torneys for the ironworkers and the
government argued long and bitterly
as to who should be the correct per-
sons to approve the bonds. It was
finally decided that the question
should be presented to Judge Ander-
son, and that Acknowledgement Miller
must approve the bonds on behalf Of
the government
Miller said that the defendants
would be required to offer the bonds
Of private individuals, for which real
estate security equal to twice the
amount Of the bail in each case must
be given.
