SOLDIER ON TROOP
TRAIN SHOOTS SELF

Just before the first section of the
troop trains from Texas City arrived IN
FL Paso a tragedy occurred IN a tour
list sleeper, Sergt Wyatt E. Patterson,
of company A, 18th infantry, shooting
himself through the head. At about
$50 the occupants of the sleeper were
suddenly awakened by the sound Of a
rifle shot. A moment later Patterson's
bunkmate tumbled out of bed, exclaim-
ing, Hes done it"
Upon investigation it was learned
that Sergt Patterson had sat up in the
berth and, placing the smuzzle of his
rifle in his mouth, pulled the trigger.
The bullet went through the top of
his head, and continuing its upward
course, passed through the upper berth
and inflicted a wound In the arm Of
cook Robert. K. AIalloy, who was occu-
plying the upper berth.
MallOy was taken from the train here
and removed to the post hospital at
Fort Bliss At the time of his removal
Malloy was unconscious, but he had re-
covered consciousness Friday morning
and was resting easily. An examina-
ton showed that the bullet had entered
cook MallOy's right arm above the ell
bow and had gone out through the
forearm, shattering the elbow and leav-
ing a piece of the steel jacket of the
bullet in the arm. The piece of steel
was removed and the arm was set Fri
day morning.
The body Of Patterson was also
taken off here.

HEARST-HARRISON LEADERS OUT FOR WILSON
" OPPOSE HEARST

Reconsideration machine has been
approached during the past few
weeks and asked to sign an inter-
view knocking President Wilson's
stand on Panama tolls.
To some of these officials inter
views already written in regular
Hearst style were offered. At every
desk there was a rundown. The
Harrison politicians, particularly, said
they were not going to cut all wires
connecting them with national poll
tics by going against the party's ma
tional policy.
Around this break an open rebel
lion is shaping up against the Hearst
papers and the local Hearst political
manager, Andrew M. Lawrence.
The cartoons and news stories at
lacking President Wilson on the Pan
anna tolls questions are smashing all
the H.-H. connections with Washing
ton. ~ ~.
Veteran players of the political
game say that any man who falls for
the Hearst Panama tolls stuff puts
his head in a moose and spells his po-
iticaI future.
Miles Devine, president of the
County Democracy, said to a Day
Book reporter that he is with Wilson
and against the shipping trust and
the newspapers that are trying to
shoot holes in the Wilson policy and
are attacking the Democratic party
and trying to wreck its future.
"The president knows what he is
doing" said Devine. ''To respect our
treaty with England and keep in line
with international law is the wise
course. It is only a matter of we'll
