PLACING FORCES
IN REPUBLICS
American Marines Being Dis
tributed by Rear Admiral
1iaaaisa CaperOn.

Washington. May 22-Rear Admir-
al Caperton, at Santo Domingo, is TAX
ing steps to- distribute his force OF
American marines to- various points
in the little republics. and before they
are withdrawn some arrangement will
be made whereby American officers
will be placed in charge of the con-
stabulary.
The broadening out of the marine
patrol the officials indicated today is
a step preliminary to establishment
of policing system. similar to that
recently inaugurated in Hayti under
the new Haytian treaty.
American Minister Russell report
ing today that the marines would
soon be distributed to strategic points
in the republic and said he received
many requests for such action in the
interest of the sugar plantations.
American warships are already sta
toned at most important points.
Will Not Recognize carvajal.
1t was made clear at the State De-
partment today that there was no in
tention of recognizing the election Of
FREDERICK II. Carvajal, chosen pro-
visional governor of Santo Domingo
last week by the Dominican congress
as valid.
Mr.. Russell reported that Enrique
Henriquez, former foreign minister,
was on his way to Washington to
urge Carvajai's recognition.
The Department holds that the i'm
peachment of President Jiminez was
only political coup and already has
informed the Dominican Congress-
that the proceedings cannot be rec
Ognized as legal.

CAP P|TAL CITY
WOMAN SHOT
BY ADh|RER
Former Bismarck Waitress,
Mother of Four Children,
Is Victim.
EDITH CAIN KILLED
BY HARRY SMITH
Man Makes Clean Breast of
Affair TO Grand Forks
Police.

Grand Forks, N. D., May 22-Harry
Smith shot and killed Mrs. Mary Cain
the mother of four children, here at
5:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and
last night the murderer signed a full
confession OF the shooting, declaring
1t had been his intention to slay Mrs.
Cain and then kill himself. Two
shots entered the woman's right
breast, AMI she died in five minutes.
Edith Cain, aged 16, eldest daugh.
ter of Mrs. Cain, by attacking the
man after he had shot her mother,
frustrated the mans attempt at sui
eide, knocking the revolver to the
floor, the chamber falling out
Gives Himself Up
BY the time Smith recovered pos
session Of the chamber he had calm
ed down and walked from the house
to the police station, meeting two po
lice officers at the door, they having
been called out by belated warn
ing given by Smiths roommate that
there was trouble brewing.
l. jealousy over Perry White of Min
neapolis is the cause set forth by
Smith for his action. All had been
happiness between the couple until
White entered the scene, and there
after Smith was not in Mrs. Gains
good graces.
Met at Bismarck
The woman, a waitress at the HO
tel DacOtah, and Smith met at Bis
marck, swhere the woman was EN-
ployed as waitress. They came tc
Grand Forks about two years ago.
Children Hear Conversation
The shooting occurred in the hal
Of the Cain home. The couple We're
alone, Mrs. Gains four children being
in an adjoining room. They, were
able to repeat to the police portion
Of the conversation between their
mother and Smith, in which Smith
sought to make up with her, she re-
jecting his proposals.
Parents of Deserted Baby
Salaciousness is added to Smiths
story by his declaration that the
baby found on the doorstep of the
J. Nelson Kelly home here over a
year ago, was his and Mrs. Gains
child, and that he, Cain, placed the
baby on the step. The story had
been given to officials previously by
Smith, but Mrs. Cain had denied the
assertions.
Warning Is Too Late
Smiths roommate, Sam McClendOn
had warned the police a half hour
before the murder that Smith had a
revolver, and that he was afraid OF
trouble. "A short time afterwards
McClendon saw Smith take the gun
from dresser drawer, load it, and
declare he was going to kill Mrs.
Cain. McClendon delayed his second
warning to the police, however, until
after the shooting, Smith being at the
door of the Jail ready to give himself
up when the police officers went out
to investigate McClendon's story.
