FREAK GUN Gets
POLICE GUESSING
Believed Stolen by Negro Who
is Arrested for
Robbery.

Frank Mitchell, Negro. was ar

burglarizing a trunk belonging TO
Wiseman Harris. 1906 LstOn St
Mitchell was thought to have taken
two revolvers from the trunk, and
when picked up by Detectives De-
linski and PABLO, had one Of the
guns in his possession.
As a weapon. the So caliber affair
would have been formidable enough,
but as a curiosity it had the atten-

official department rapt for some
time. No one in the room. includ-
ing Chief Of Detectives Kuespert,
Chief Of Police Willard r Kerr,
Capt. James Schock, J. NJ Mont

Olmstead had ever seen anything to
resemble the contraption, unless il
was one OF the old fashioned affairs
OF Captain Kidd days. And the Kidd
gun. as pictured. was much different
in size.
Built on the ancient model, the
gun was a highly decorated single
shot piece, fitting the palm of the
hand. An easy trigger release was
a dangerous feature.-and the hole
built for that .3S caliber was too
large for comfortable reflections on
what might happen.
Mitchell is said to have con-
fessed.

Therefore be it resolved: That the
St Joseph County Medical society

man suffering might be alleviated.
Resolved: That the St. Joseph
County Medical society extends to
the wife and family it's deepest SYM
pathy in their great bereavement, in
the hope that the memory OF the
faithful services rendered his coun-
try in trying moments by an efficient
statesman. may be partial compen-
sation for an otherwise incOnsolable
loss.

resolutions be sent 20 the family OF
the deceased, TO the daily papers of
South Bend. Ind. and to the official

HAYS CANDIDACY
MIKES Up RACE
Watson and New Tangle Can
not be Cleared Without
Convention Fight.
Special to The News-Times:


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March 10.
Quickly the political spotlight was
turned from the democrats today in
Indiana and thrown, full glare, on
the republican situation, when the
state committee of that party re-
elected all its old officers here. only
TO hear request from VIII II. Hays,
state chairman. that he be allowed
TO consider the question of whether
he would serve again. In few days
he hopes TO be able to tell the COM
mittee his decision, il was an
nounced.
This means but one thing. Hays
will be a candidate for the United
States senate to fill the unexpired
term of Sen. Benjamin f. Shively.
whose death Is being mourned
throughout the state. Hays does not
want to make the announcement
until Sen. Shively is buried Saturday,
but it is expected that he will de-
clare himself following that happen
ing.
The entrance of Hays into the re-
publican race-and 1t seems prac-
tically certain he will enter twill
mean perhaps the most spectacular
fight in years for the &. o. p. James
L. Watson has announced he will go
before the convention to contest for
his right to the nomination of the
recent primaries. His followers are
hard boiled" because they have
been forced out Of the race for the
present. A way TO patch the whole
matter up would have been the
nomination OF Watson to make the
race TO succeed Shively. The en-
trance Of Hays into the race seems
10 preclude that possibility for it
seems certain that Hays can con-
troll the state committee, which re-
elected him as state chairman to-
day.
Democratic Situation Unchanged.
The democratic senatorial situa-
ton was unchanged today. unless
the sentiment for Thomas Taggart
as the governors appOintee took a
little firmer hold on leaders here. A
story also was going the rounds that
Gov. Ralston might appoint Taggart
TO serve until the next election, then
resign himself, allow Lieut.. Gov.
O'Neill Of Mishawaka to become gov
ernor, and seek the senatOrship
himself. There are so many ludi-
crous angles 10 such a proposal that
il Is given little credence. Ralston
always has stood for official resig-
nations from public office the mo-
ment a candidate for another posi-
ton is announced. To be consistent
he would have TO resign as governor.
If he sought the senatorial toga.
This would throw the present lieu
tenant governor into the chair, but
there is little possi bility that such a
train of circumstances will occur,
even in part.
Robert W. Morris of New Albany,
third district republican chairman,
was named vice chairman by the
state committee; J. w. Henley was
reelected secretary to the state
committee and Frank d. Stalnaker
of indianapolis was reelected treas
urer Of the committee.
