IN SOUTH DAKOTA

Lead, S. D., Oct. 2e-The body OF
Father Belknap rector of st. Pat
rick's cathedral here, was found today
on Poor Mans Gulch" highway near
the city limits Of Lead. A bullet
from a large calibre revolver had
pierced his heart. The priest had
been lured to his death by a man who,
a few minutes before, had appealed
10 Father Belknap to come with him
to administer the last sacraments OF
the church to a sick man.
Tonight the authorities OF Lead
were without clue to the identity of
way from Mitchell, s. D.. and when
they arrive, search for the murderer
will start. Throughout the Black
Hills, scores Of men were ready to-
night to form posses.
1t was about 3:15 o'clock this morn
ing when a men rang the bell at the
door Of Bishop ]. l.. Lawlor's resi-
dence, where father Belkpap lived.
The young priest answered the call.
Father Thomas Hoben and Father
Belknap's parents also living at the
Lawlor home heard a man ask Faith
er Belknap to come with him to the
house Of a sick friend who was about
to die and who desired admlnistra-
ton Of the sacrament Of extreme unc-
ton.
Father Belknap went to his garage
to get his automobile. His visitor
ACCOMPANIED him. The starter on
the car would not work and the pair
left afoot.
That was the last occupants Of the
Bishops residence heard of the priest,
until his body was found half an hour
later 1t lay In the roadway. face
downward. A large bruise on the
back of the priests head indicated he
had been struck from behind with
blunt instrument
Residents Of the vicinity told police
they had heard shots. Bishop Lawlor
declared tonight Father Belknap had
no known enemies and never had re-
ceived any threats. No description
Of the man who called for the priest
was obtainable. authorities say. An
examination of Father Belknap's
automobile indicated it had been tam
pered with, according to his friends,
a switch connecting the starter hay
ing been removed. Rewards totalIing
$500 for apprehension Of the slayer
had been offered tonight. Father Bel

be 20 per cent. of the net income in

ported the amendment and one Demo-
cart, Glass, opposed it.

fits section of the bill. the Senate pro-
ceeded to consideration of the corpora
tion income tax section under unaa
imous consent agreement that it would

sent agreement, the Republicans held
in allegiance their plan to force con-
tinuous session and the Senate adj

morrow. Majority leaders said, how
ever. that the question of putting this
plan into execution would depend
upon developments from day to day.
Senator Penrose of PENNSYLVANIA. IN
charge of the bill, reiterated his pre-
diction that the measure would be
passed by the end of the week. He
declared that "the backbone Of care

THE LEWISTON TOTERS

Jesse E. Mcdonald of Lewiston
and John f. Campbell Of Lewiston
World war veteran, were arraigned
before United States Bail Commits
sioner Sanford l.. Fogg, at 10 o'clock
Wednesday morning, charged with
violation of the VoIstead act in that
portation of liquor. The two re-
spondents pied not guilty and waived
fixed at the sum of $500 for the ap-
pearance Of the two men at the next
term of District court of the United
States, Dec. IS at Portland. Both
men secured their required bonds.
This hearing was the outcome Of
the seizure made Tuesday afternoon
at the State street and Western av-
enue junction when federal officers
seized the automobile and its con-
tents and had the two men placed
in the Kennebec county Jail. The
contents of the car, it was later de-
termined, was not of the variety
first reported, but rather was 210
! quarts of Scotch and Rye whiskey
and another bottle partly filled with
the same kind of liquor. The bot
ties, specimens of which were seen
in the bail commissioners Office on
Wednesday, bore the Canadian Gus
toms stamp.
Jesse f. Mcdonald. one OF the re-
spondents, on Tuesday gave the
name of Joseph Haley and when
asked at the hearing Wednesday
forenoon if his name was not Nc
Donald, the defendant admitted that
it was The other respondent, John
f. Campbell. had on Tuesday given
the name of John Smith.
Campbell. the World war veteran,
who wore his army overcoat with the
sleeve insignia, when he appeared on
Wednesday morning before the court
asked after pleading not guilty and
waving the reading of the war
rant, that he be given an opportunity
TO secure counsel, which he did. b.
r. Maher being obtained for him.
Campbell talked quite freely before
the commissioner. claiming that he
was a soldier. had tuberculosis and
was I'm the totally disabled class.
He said he wanted to get out Of the
trouble in the best way that he could,
that he didn't know anything about
this liquor and that he was innocent
in the case.
Commissioner Fogg stated that his
hearing could be postponed until Fri
day morning. Campbell said that he
could not stay in a. place of confine-
ment because of his physical condi-
ton.
1t is interesting to note that the
case which appeared before United
States Commissioner Fogg was the
initial case for him to handle in that
capacity, the illegal transportation
act. In his position as U. S. COM
missioner he had had a narcotic case
and single sale cases but this is the
first case of such size.

HOUSE TO ACT
ON BLANTON'S'
CASE TODAY
Leader Mondell Says
Four-Fifths Favor
Expulsion
Resolution to Be Read at Noon
Hours Defense to Be Civ
en- Blanton-Move on to
Make it Vote of Censure Only
Two Hours of Debate
Probable

Washington. Oct. 2s-The House Of
Representatives was up in the air to-
night over the method Of procedure
tomorrow on a resolution calling for
the ousting Of Thomas L. Blanton,
democrat Of Texas Notwithstanding
a statement by representative Mon
dell Of Wyoming, the republican lead
or. that 1t would be called up.
In the face OF a plea from republi-
cans and democrats alike for a reso-
luton providing only for severe con-
demnation and censure, Mr.. Mondell
declared he would not turn back.
'The resolution to expel Mr.. Blan-
ton for causing to be printed in our
highest government publication Of Of
fensive and obscene matter" said Mr..
Mondell, will be called up at noon
tomorrow. Mr.. Blanton will be given
IN hour in his own defense. Four
nfths Of the republicans will vote for
his expulsion. I expect about two
hours Of debate on the resolution,
which cannot be amended or put aside
for a substitute and I believe 1t will
be adopted"
There were claims, however, by
some republicans and democrats that
the two-thirds vote necessary to ex-
pei would be lacking and for this
JASON they urged a resolution Of CEN
sure.
Those insisting upon the latter
course asserted that a resolution OF
censure, calling also for public re-
buke by the speaker. would be put
through with few If any dissenting
votes.
Returning to his seat in the House
late today. Blanton made an attempt
to speak but was prevented by a
situation. In which the
charges against him were In no way
affected. After looking over the rec
ord for few moments. he talked with
speaker Gillette. who assured him
that he would be given an opportun
ity to address the House tomorrow
before 1t voted on the question OF
his expulsion. Then when he found
he would be unable to obtain the
floor during the afternoon. he went
away, first refusing to make a public
statement 1t had been expected that
the Texas delegation would meet dur
ing the day to agree on a concerted
plan of voting but there was no meet
ing. members deciding that such a
step was not advisable. Nearly all
the Texas representatives said they
would not vote against the Mondell
resolution. but would support a rcso-
luton of censure.
