COLONEL FOR GovERNoR7
Strong Movement Among Now York
Proersssives to Force Roosevelt Into
State campaisn-Protssts From 9th.
or States.

New York, July 8-Whether Colonel
Roosevelt will accept the progressive
nomination for governor OF New York
may be decided today at meeting at
progressive headquarters OF the state
leader. Delegations of progressives
came to New York from various parts
Of the state to urge Colonel Roosevelt
to take the nomination. They said
frankly they had no other candidate
and had not even considered another
name for the head Of the ticket. The
conference was to be in session several
hours and Colonel Roosevelt was con-
fronted with the alternative Of either
consenting to head the ticket or de-
clining to heed the. earnest pleas Of
virtually all the prominent leaders Of
his party in the state. Altho he had
said several times that he would not
accept the nomination, he admits that
his denials have made little impress
sion on tiis political associates.
Colonel Roosevelts position was re-
inforced by the attitude OF progressives
in other states. Ever since his return
from Europe he has been receiving let
ters and telegrams from progressives
in all parts Of the country urging him
not to accept the nomination. In some
cases 1t has been charged that the
New York leaders are willing to run
the chance Of injuring the party In
the nation for the sake Of making 3
good showing in. this state.
For two hours today the progressive
leaders Of New York state used every
argument at their command to induce
Colonel Roosevelt to agree that he
would receive the nomination as gov
ernor Of New York. After Il was all
over the colonel said he had nothing to
say at this time and had not changed
mis- previous .:te.s!c. not to run.

TO ASK INDICTMENT OF
PERSON NOT YET NAMED
New Theory Advanced Generally 40
oepted by Publie-cIaim Now Made
That New York Gunman Aided
sIays-Eye Witness Declares Wom-
an in White Committed Crime.

Edwin Carnan was arrested TINS
afternoon in connection with the
murder Of Mrs. Louise Bailey.

Freport, N. Y. July S.-That the mur-
der Of Mrs. Louise Bailey on Tuesday

he will ask the indictment of the person
he suspects Of having killed Mrs.
Bailey. The presentation of the case
before the grand jury will go on no
matter what Inc yeriiot ct the coroner's
inquest.
New Theory Advanced.
Detectives were running down new
theory of the killing advanced in Free
port yesterday This was that New
York gunman played part in 1T. That
he brought the weapon to Freeport,
broke the glass of a window In the or
flee of DR.. Carman, handed the gun to
the slayer, and then escaped with the
gun after the shooting is the theory.
For some reason this theory Is regarded
as more worthy of credence than any OF
the other wild stories which have been
drifting about Freeport.
Eye Witness Found.
Just before the inquest was resumed
today the district attorney announced
he had discovered a new witness who
said he saw the murder committed.
This man, an insurance agent. said he

saw the woman disappear at the rear
Of the house.

Gason Boissonault, manager of the
detective division OF company which
manufactures telephone devices to re-
cord conversations. was the first wit
ness called today at the resumption at
the inquest into the death Of Mrs.
Bailey.
1t was Boissonault's company that
Installed telephone device in DR.. Car
mans office some time before the mur-
der at the order of Mrs. Carman. The
witness told today of the first call of
Mrs. Carman at his office She first
said she was a dressmaker, then ad-
mitted her identity, adding she had
many domestic troubles and wanted to
hear what went on in her husbands
office. The witness said arrangements
for the rental for the instrument were
made on May 10.
On the same day Mrs Carman had
made plans to take her husband away
for two days while the instrument was

A Young Woman,s Sad Death.

Miss Alma Mumma, the nineteen-Year
old daughter OF Albert S. Mumma, OF Ha-
gerstown, died in Harper's Ferry yester-
day morning under suspicious circum-
stances, and S. L. Hoffman, aged p
years, an employee ofthe Western Mary
land Railroad, is in Jail TO await the result
OF an investigation by coroner's jury.
Hoffman formerly lived in Charles Town,
but for some time past has resided in Ha-
gerstown, where it is said he was very
attentive TO Miss Mumma. About week
ago, says the Herald, the couple left Ha-
gerstown together and went to Harper's
Ferry, taking rooms at the boarding.
house OF Mrs. Harry Rockenbaugh. Yes
terday morning between and O'Clock
the girl was taken suddenly i'll and died
in a short while. The circumstances
were so suspicious that Hoffman was ar
rested by Policeman White at HarpeTs
Ferry and locked up. II is alleged that
the girl died Of premature childbirth.
Magistrate Charles n. Briggs, acting as
coroner, summoned coroner's jury 10
investigate the matter, and began the in
quest this morning. The affair caused
quite a sensation IN Harper's Ferry.

Relic Goes to the Junk Shop.

The unsighily chunk OF old iron that
has occupied pedestal Of dilapidated
wooden blocks in the courthouse yard
at Charles Town for some time past has
been removed. Several years ago a re-
quest was made Of the government that
if furnish some historic old cannon as an
ornament for the space in front Of the
court house. A huge old cylinder OF
iron. weighing some eight tons, was DO
mated and sent on. At a good deal Of
cost it vas transported TO the courthouse
and temporarily placed OF rough wooden
blocks. II was not a thing OF beauty
indeed, if was apparent that II was not
worth decent pedestal. Far from hay-
ing any historic significance, it is said
that it had never been finished as a can
non azd had never fired shot. The
county commissioners recently decided
to get rid of the unsightly old gun, and
sold it TO junk man, who has taken II
away.

stabbing ARRAY At KearneysvilIe.

There was desperate affray at Kear-
neysville last Saturday morning between
an Italian known as Mike 3edera and a
negro by the name OF Sam Ham Lewis,
both of whom were employed in the
quarries at that place. Soon after be-
ginning work the two men got into
quarrel, and the Italian in furious fit OF
anger drew dagger and went after the
colored man. The first swipe he made
inflicted slight flesh wound and the
second merely cut the clothing. The
third stroke, however, was deadly one,
for it pierced the left breast OF the negro
TO depth OF about four inches, cutting
into his lung. This ended the fight, for
the colored man, bleeding profusely,
soon collapsed. The Italian disappeared
in few moments, and succeeded in
evading the officers who soon aiterward
began a search for him. Sheriff Gardner,
OF this county, and Sheriff Tabler, OF
Berkeley county, tried TO head him off
and B. & o. Detective Prince spread a
net in the hope of catching him, but SO
far nothing has been heard OF his where
aboutS.
The injured colored man was taken
to his home near the quarries and DR.. J.
L. Meyers was sent for He gave him
surgical attention, and though at first ii
was thought that the wound was fatal
one. the man is still alive and has chance
for recovery. The negro, who is about
40 years of age, originally came from
Virginia, but has been living near Kear-
neysviIIe for some time mast.

en- on Monday. There were several
showers during the day, followed by a
downpour al night that gave the ground
a thorough drenching. The rain was of
vast benefit to the growing corn and
potatoes and garden truck, which had
been suffering because OF the hot dry,
weather. Tuesday there were more
showers, and last night two thunderstorms
between eleven and two O'Clock brought
additional rain, all OF which was very
welcome. The rains have revived the
pastures and are also great help TO the
orchards and the small fruit.
County Agricultural Agent J. V. Ship
man, Chas. d. Wysong, of Shepherds
town, and Herbert c. Miller, of KearneyS-
vile, went TO Pennsylvania last week to
investigate the method Of vaccinating ap-
pie trees for the prevention OF scale and
other diseases. They were accompanied
by the agent who advocates the method,
and who seems TO have great faith in it.
There were no large commercial Or
chards in Pennsylvania where the system
had been used-only trees here and there
in small farm orchards. An orchard in
Berkeley county was also visited. MIR.
Wysong was not greatly impressed with
the new remedy and says that he is not
prepared to express an opinion as to its
value.
The summer is slipping away, and no
work TO amount TO anything has been
done on the turnpikes in Shepherdstown
district, though they are all in need OF
improvement. What was once the finest
road in West Virginia, the Shepherd
turnpike, is steadily getting in worse
condition because OF neglect on the part
of the turnpike commissioner, and the
people OF this section are becoming more
and more indignant at the way our turn
pixies are deteriorating. On the other
hand, the roads in charge OF Supervisor
Hendricks and his assistants are not only
being maintained in satisfactory man
ner, but marked Improvements are being
made as opportunity presents itself. The
suggestion heretofore made, that Shep-
herdstown districts proportion of the
turnpike appropriation be expended by
our district supervisors, is, we believe,
the practically unanimous desire of the
people OF this section. We hope that our
county commissioners will see their way
clear to issue such an order.
