FULTON, Mo, Nov. 13. News
Smimitar Special. )-That insane
jealousy fostered and abetted
by love of one woman for another
is the underlying cause of the grim
and unusual tragedy in this city in
which Miss Carolyn Weant, 20 years
old, comely. stenographer. shot to
death her inseparabTe companion
and dearest friend. Mrs. Ada Nc
Cowan, and then turned the revol,
yer upon herself, piercing her heart
with a bullet from the same weapon,
is accepted by the citizens of Fulton
as the proper deduction
Notes left by Miss Weant make
it evident that she committed both
crimes.
That there must have been some
thing of more serious nature than
the jealousy of one woman over an
other beneath the murder and sui
eide is the opinion of scores of peo-
pie in Fulton, but what was it? No
one has been able to suggest any
thing that they believe would have
led this gi11 from all indications in
offensive and entirely bereft of an
insatible desire to harm her inti-
mate friend, one who had slept with
lET Ill llS SttlllC pSu LOl lllill
a year, while the husband of her
friend occupied a bedroom on a
lower floor, where he could tend the
furnace.
The differences that Miss Weant
had with her own mother and sis
ter when they suggested that the
two women had better live apart
because of their frequent quarrels,
revealed that she loved this woman
better than anyone of her own kith
and kin, her mother even, the vom-
an who. had borne her and of whose
own flesh and blood she was.
Another element that enters into
the case is the fear that Mrs. Nc
Cowan is said to have expressed for
Miss Weant as related by Mr.. Nc
Cowan. II. b. Weant. brother of the
young woman, is authority for the
statement that Miss Weant, who at
one time was at work in Texas as
stenographer came back to the
MCGOWAN home when Mrs. Nc
Cowan wrote to- her and begged her
to return. What motive prompted
Mrs. MCGOWAN to do this? No one
knows and the answer to the ques-
tion is sealed with the closing of
the lips of the two women in death.
If the quarrel that preceded the
double killing was over any particu-
lar person the fact will never be
known as the two women carried the
secret. with them to the grave. Mrs.
Acison\ who was the only person in
the house at the time declared that
she heard the quarrel but that she
did not hear any names mentioned.
Their previous quarrels, she testified
were of a general nature also, and
at no time was the name Of any
other man or woman brought into

Mr. Harris survey calls for con-

extension of consequence and w$th--
out any undue congestion. He makes
the period 10 years because he does
not believe that cars should be re-
routed often than once in 10 years
on account of the disposition of the
public to criticize such changes, a
disposition which arises from the
fact that changes interfere with
their daily habits,
In line with this preparation for
the future Mr.. Harris has allowed
for an increase in the population of
the territory served by tire street car
system to $4,000 in 1880. Note that
this figure is for population served
and not the city proper, He places
the number served at the moment
at 1856, 600. Based on this population
the Memphis people rode street cars
in 1919 for an average of 264 rides
per year per capita, or almost once
a day for every man, woman and
child served by the system. The
tracks Of the system are fairly well
located, according to Mr.. Harris, and
there are very few people in the city
who live more than one-fourth mile

LONDON, Nov. 13. (By 1nterna-
tional News Service, 1.-The forces of
Gen. Wrangel. anti Bolshevist leader
in the Crimea, have evacuated Sc
bastopol, said a delayed dispatch
from Constantinople, dated Thurs
day.
A Reuter- dispatch from Constan-
tinople says $4,000 refugees from the
Crimea are seeking transportation
for foreign ports. The first shiploads
have reached Constantinople, but the
refugees were not permitted to land
owing to the housing and food snort
ages in the Turkish capital, the dis
patch says.
The above dispatch, If authentic
confirms cable advices that have
come from various sources during
the last few days to the effect that
Gen. Wrangel's army is in a serious
plight. All indications are that the
Bolshevist forces are within reach or
the greatest military triumph since
they drove the Polish legions back
behind the gates of Warsaw. Unless
they are stopped in the eleventh
hour, as they were in front of the
Polish capital, their reccnquest OF
the Crimea and the consequent sur
render or extinction of their most
formidable foe seem inevitable. Even
in the most precarious days Of the
Polish campaign, Gen. WrangeFs
army was the most painful and most
dangerous thorn in the side of the
soviet republic. Wrangel has
throughout enjoyed the full moral
backing and confidence -of~~the al
lied governments. Moreover the re-
dictionary and anti-Bolshevist eie-
ments throughout the Muscovite ter
ritories had come to look upon
Wrangel as the potential wrecker OF
the soviet republic and restorer OF
the OLD order.
Immediately after the armistice
with Poland, Trotzky proclaimed

ing straight ahead for Wrangefs
last line of defense. Since then dis
patches from the allied capitals re-
garding Wrangels fate have grown
more and more pessimistic. In Lon
don the terrific battle for the Crimea
is being watched with comparative
equanlmity, but Paris dispatches
! Nave reflected grave alarm, for
Wrangel is the particular protege
of the French. Upon him the French
had pinned their hopes for. recovery
of the millions borrowed from
France by the czarist regime.

Admiral Benson is appointed from

Admiral Benson and Mr.. Donald
are the Atlantic coast represents

Mr.. Thompson is the member from

Mr.. Sutter the member from the in
terror. This geographical grouping
or the members is required under the
merchant marine act.
The chairman and Mr.. Donald are
reappointed from the present board,
while the selection of Mr.. Thompson
and Mr.. Teal was made some time
ago but was not announced because
some of the members appointed then
declined to serve. They included
Theodore Marburg. of Baltimore: !:
Gavin McNab, OF San Francisco, and
Martin Gillen, of Wisconsin.
Under the law not more than four
members of the board can be of any
one political party. Four Democrats
and three Republicans have been
appointed. but in some quarters to-
day doubt was expressed whether the
Republican senate would approve
this political alignment in view of
the fact that Republican adminis-
tration will come into power on next
March 4. 1t was regarded as pos

they are not expected to draw any
