The Monday evening Cumberland
Times gives the following report oil
his death:
Claude 7. Davis, aged SO, a Balti-
more and Ohio brageman from
Clarksburg, w. Va, was found
alongside the Western Maryland
tracks close to Wills Greek tannery,
at GAS o'clock this morning, suffer
ing from Injuries from which he
died several hours later at the Al
leghany hospital, where he was taken
in the police patrol. Davis was sup
posed to have been struck by Balti-
more and Ohio train, but since his
death the Cumberland police suspect
foul play and rigid Investigation
was started this afternoon,
Signs of Struggle.
A number Of new beer cases for the
German Brewing Company which
were unloaded from a car several
days ago and placed short distance
from the track and near where Davis
was found, contained blood stains and

that vicinity the police are led to be

Davis was probably beaten up by his
assailant close to the beer cases
which accounts for the blood being
on them. While being taken to the
hospital, however, Davis, in a semi
conscious condition, told the patrol
driver that he had been hit by train
and also said he had about $40 in a

JURY
PROBE TO Be
TRICK SCHEME
OF the Democratic OffiCehoId-
erS and Politicians to Get
Votes in the State.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 22.-The
grand jury Investigation of alleged
frauds committed at the June pri-
mary in Mcdowell and Mingo coun-
ties was started at Bluefleld today.
While the department Of justice
sanctions the investigation, and has
designated D. Z. French to assist
District Attorney W. G. Barnhart
with it, it is the understanding in
official circles here that Senator Chill
ton is the originator, and if that be
the case, then it appears to the OBJ
servers here that it Is to be anything
else except an impartial investigation
to enforce exact justice on any wrong
doers who may be found, it matters
not whether they broke the laws in
behalf of Democratic or Republican
candidates.
The main purpose it is believed, IS
to trump up charges against RepuD-
licans, indict some of them if posi-
BILE. and let them remain in the
shadow of suspicion until after cleo
ton, as no trial is expected or de-
sired prior to that day. The idea
seems to be to do something to en-
barrass the Republican campaign,
hoping thereby to gain a few votes
from that party for the Democratic
candidates.
Privately it is whispered Senator
Chiffon sets high hopes on the effect
of this investigation and the results
anticipated from 1t,

And Seven Other Railroad Pres
identS, Which will Work on
Wilson's Proposal.
CABINET M EETIN G HELD
Brotherhood Will Issue a State.
mentRepIying to Argument
of the Executives.

WASHINGTON, Aug, 22.-As the
railroad executives were not ready
for another conference Tuesday
morning, President Wilson called the
cabinet to dispose OF business which
has accumulated while he has been
considering the strike problem.
At 10 o'clock Tuesday morning the
men went into n meeting which was
attended by the leaders Of all four
brotherhOOds. No special Importance
was attached to it. A statement In
reply to the argument OF the rail-
road executives on the question OF
arbitration was being prepared by
the leaders and probably will be Is
sued for publication Wednesday. The
brotherhood officials describe the sit
uation as unchanged. The railroad
executives made u formal announce
ment that consideration of the situa-
tion had been turned over to a COM
mittee OF eight and that no conclus-
ion had been reached, The follow
ing were announced as members OF
the committee which will work on
Presidnt Wilson's proposal and make
a report 10 the assembled executives:
Hale Holden, Burlington; w. w.
Atterbury Pennsylvania; Fairfax
Harrison Southern; Robert S,
Lovett. Union Pacific; y. p. Ripley,
Santa FC; A. IL. Smith, New York
Central; Frank Trumbull, Cheaa'
peake and Ohio; and Daniel Willard,
HuIttmnrn and ObiO
While the subcommittee was
working the executives got in touch
with their boards Of directors. II
was understood that reply might
be ready for President Wilson Tues
day night or Wednesday morning.
In administration circles 1t was said
there was hope for settlement. The
exact nature OF the proposal to be
submitted to President Wilson was
not revealed, but from the fact that
the executives were in communica-
tion with their boards of directors
the conclusion was drawn that It con-
cerned the concession Of the eight
hour day
One suggestion understood to be
under consideration was the submis-
sion of the collateral Issues to the
Interstate Commerce Commission or
provision for making permanent
the commission of investigation sug-
gested by President Wilson.
The Brotherhood meeting did moth
ing and adjourned until 3 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon.
An invitation from Vice President
Marshall 10 all of the representatives
to visit the Senate Tuesday was ac-
cepted.

CLAUD 7. DAVIS MAY
HAVE BEEN MURDERED

pocketbook in his inside coat pocket.
When Patrolman Himmler arrived
on the scene with the patrol wagon,
a number OF employees at the tannery
had placed Davis In sitting position.
He was coatless but the patrol driver
did not remove the coat from the
ground. Several hours later the
pocketbook spoken of by Davis was
returned to the police station and the
coat was brought to Headquarters
later. There was no money IN the
poCketbook or coat pocket
Certificate Found.
Davis's pocketbook was examined
and duplicate of a marriage Certin-
cate issued to Davis at the Cumber-
land court house was found which
showed that he had been married In
Cumberland at st. Patrick's church,
bv the Rev. Edward j. Wunder, on
September 3, 1903. to Miss Frances
DYER, OF Richwood, w. Va. The dupli-
cate of the certificate was secured
from Clerk of Court Lloyd l.. Shaffer,
on March 81, 1916, and mailed to
Davis at Huntington, w. Va The
original license was issued to Davis
on August 81, 1903. There was also
a tntype picture of himself wife and
child, while another picture showed
Davis standing beside his wife.
When taken to the hospital he was
attended by Dr. Thomas W, Koon.
who saw the patient at $3.50 o'clock.
Dr. Koon said Davis had scalp
wound, and in all probability the
skull was fractured. The attending
physician said he did not ascertain
whether the wound had been received
by fall, or whether he had been
struck. 1t is the opinion Of the hos
pital attendants that Davis died from
an internal hemorrhage, brought on
by the scalp wound.
The body was removed to the But
Ter mortuary where it was viewed
by the coroner for Allegheny county,
and prepared for burial. An investi-
cation will be made by the coroner
before the body is removed from the
state.

FIRST BIG GUN is
TO BE MIR. BORAH
Idaho Senator Will Open Cam
paign at Morgantown and
Wheeling Soon,

WASHINGTON, August 22.-The
first big gun of the Republican COM
paign in West Virginia will be no less
a parsonage than Senator William E.
Borah, of Idaho. Congressman Suther-
land has arranged for him to visit
Morgantown on September Is and de-
liver a speech there in the evening OF
that day, and Wheeling the following
day, speaking in that city in the even
ing. This will be the only visit that
Senator Borah will make to west Vir-
ginia during the campaign There Is
a great demand for him from every
Republican state committee north OF
the Mason and Dixon line, and the ma
tional committee is hard at 1t arrang-
ing an itinerary for him which will
take in practically every state where
the Republicans are waging haru
campaign. Under the circumstances
Congressman Sutherland declares that
West Virginia Republicans should feel
elated that such a popular orator and
eminent statesman as Senator Boran
is conceded universally to be has been
secured to fire the opening gun for the
party in West Virginia.
An effort Is to be made to make the
wheeling meeting the formal opening
Of the West Virginia campaign, not,
withstanding that Senator Borah Will
speak in Morgantown on the preceding
day. He goes to Morgantown prin-
cipally because he desired to make a
speech in the district represented by
Col. George NJ. Bowers. There is a
bond Of friendship between the two
which developed when Senator Boran
first came to washington and Col.
