WRONGED HUSBAND SOUGHT
ON NEW ELWELL CASE CLUE
Theory Now Is That Whist
Expert Was Killed During
Raid for Divorce Evidence.

In the hunt for the guilty person
and the motive in the murder OF Jo-
seph Bovine Elwell, while the District
Attorneys office confesses itself up
against a stone wall. the police are a
long way from abandoning the trail.
Capt. Arthur Carey Of the Homicide
Bureau and Capt, Thomas +, Walsh
OF the Fourth Branch Detective Bu-
reau are sticking to the case with the
utmost persistence.
Day and night they have been fol-
lowing every clue without let-up, and
no suggestion has been too slight for
them to work upon where 1t appears
to have the least bearing upon a mo-
tive for the murder
The police are now interviewing
men who were associated with Elwell
socially, in business way, in horse
racing-in any manner.
At the same time the examination
OF the women whose names were
taken from Elwelrs telephone list, is
quietly going on. This line OF in
vestigation is considered by the po-
Ice one Of the most important phases
in the hunt for the slayer. They be-
lieve that a woman is lndEectly re-
sponstble for the slayefs visit to the
home Of Elwell on Friday morning
June IL.
One Of the new theories Is that

SAN FRANCISCO. June 24.-The
wet and dry issue, which, despite all
the efforts OF the pussyfooters. is
really the outstanding issue in the
forthcoming convention, is In nice
comfortable jam to-day. Here, brief
ly, is the situation:
The out and out vets. led by
friends OF Gov. Edwards of New Jer-
sey. who has q considerable follow
ing, arc in favor OF pledging the Dem
ocratic Party TO the doctrine OF
states rights in relation to the liquor
traffic-that Is, q platform plank de-
any other kind of a saloon, and
against whiskey, but in favor of al
lowing the manufacture and sale Of
wines and beers in States desiring
such conditions under due process Of
state laws.
The out and out drys, led by Will
liam Jennings Bryan, want a plat
form declaration favoring the rigid
reinforcement OF the Volstead Act.
\ HtE, Middle OF the Readers and the
. W. hooters want the Democratic
! M .entlon to avoid all reference to
NL<yheenth Amendment or the Vol
WA act.
HkETs ARE DISPOSED TO BE
AHl REASONABLE.
AfThe Iirst two factions mentioned are
bnest. and the first faction, led by
klbv. Edwards and his followers, Is
disposed TO be reasonable. The third
lction is composed of a lot OF trim
lers. who are honest according to
ieir lights, and It Is beginning to look
4 though they are numerous enough
the delegations TO force a>straddle
4 the Prohibition issue.
YIf IL comes to a showdown-to a
sIpint where the absolute vets can be
H,hown that It is part of political wis
Pdom to ignore the Prohibition Issue
the vets will probably line up with
the majority. because they are gener-
ally practical politicians and amen
able to argument The Bryan fol-
/ lowers, the uncompromising drys, are
basically fanatics. and they will lead
\ the fight in the Resolutions Commit
tee and the convention for a positive
declaration on the part of the Demo-
cratic Party one way or the other on
the Prohibition question
They won't listen to the sort OF rea-
soning which is advanced by the
pussyfooters. Anything but a straight
Sut declaration favoring the Eigh-
ieenth Amendment and the Volstead
h Act will be regarded by them as an
\ endorsement of the demon rum.
( But they arc not strong enough
from appearances at this time, to
carry their point, neither are the vets

STORY TOLD BY JUDGE
Evan Hughes Claims Attack
Made On Him Was Without
Provocation

Judge Evan Hughes states that the
attack was made upon him by DR.. W.
w. Eberhart without any provoca-
ton either in words or actions, that
the doctor stopped him near his
home and said that he wanted to
speak to him, and walked up to him
and struck him with all his might
on the head, which was the first in
timation the Judge had of what he
wanted. The stroke daZed the judge,
and then Eberhart he alleged threw
him down and pounded him with
both fists until his whole face was a
jelly. saying while he was doing so,
Judge Hughes alleges, that he would
kill him. When Judge Hughes son
Ralph heard the noise and came to
the rescue, Eberhart desisted and
went away.
"a brutal attack of this nature
should receive the condemnation it
deserves, if judges are to be protect
ed from brutal attacks because of
decisions they Make" said Judge
Hughes.
Judge Hughes stated this morning
that one of his arms has been afflict-
ed with rheumatism for the past six
months so that he can not use it ex-
cept with the greatest care, and then
with great pain, so that he had no
means of defending himself even If
he had not been dazed by the first

cows but profitable cows will keep
you.
The Good Thunder band assisted
by Lieutenant Neill, director of the

ing demonstration, Bertram D. Scott
