THE GREATEST ISSUE
Senators Hunter and Lewis
Aspirants for Committee

Nv J, r. REED,
to Intelligencer

Special Dispatch to Intelligencer.
Charleston. ". Va, Jan. l2.-Imme-
diately after the organization meeting
OF the state senate and house Of dele
gates today, there began what is prob
ably the greatest battle for political
control IN the history OF the state be-
tween the coal interests on the one
hand and the oil and gas people on tho
other, The point at issue is the chair
manship or the senate committee on
finance and taxation.
This appointment will be the most i'm
portant to be made this year. Taxa
ton Is expected by all political OBJ
servers to prove TO be the question in
volving the greatest controversies in
the legislature. Big corporations
whose holdings are largely composed OF
coal lands are fighting any attempt to
tax those lands and at the same time
seeking to have legislation passed
whereby the state will obtain most OF
the funds Of which 1t stands in so great
need from indirect taxation pointed az
oil and gas.
Hunter W. Lewis.
Two men are discussed for the chair
manship OF the senate's committee. one
is Senator Carl Hunter, Of MoundsTilic,
and the other is Senator J. G. Lewis, OF
Fayette county. whose campaign Is be-
lisvcd TO be sponsored by coal operators.
Since the coal operators won the hrst
fall in the election OF Senator q. I.
Arnold to the presidency Of the senate
II Is generally understood that the latter
will ultimately receive the appointment
or that a man not yet mentioned will
be chosen.
The house committee on finance ana
taxation Is believed to have already
been chosen, subject to changes at any
time between now and Monday. Follow
ing n conference between Speaker Edwin
N. Keatley and delegate George w.
McClIntic of Kanawha, il was officially
made known that the latter would be
chairman Of the committee. speaker
Keatlcy refused to confirm the selection
saving that he preferred to havc tho
anpo,ntment remain unknown Tor the
present.
Judiciary Committee.
, The judiciary committee Is one OF
great Importance and is being made the
battle-ground OF The great corporations
tonight. So far as Is known no selec-
ton Of even tentative nature mas
been made for the senate committee, II
is stated here upon reliable authority
that Senator ]. NJ. Sanders, Bluetield'
can have tho position II he desires. HIS
connection with murder trials at VII

WOMAN LEADS
DOUBLE LIFE

Nude Body, Mutiated Almost Beyond

skirts Of Los AngeIes-Po-
lice BaffIed by Murder.

Los Angeles.-By day a business
woman of impeccable commercial rep
utation in Los Angeles; by night
Il habitue of gambling dens and ques-
tionable resorts. This is the remark
able career of Fay Sudow, whose nude
and mutilated body was recently
found in suburb of Los Angeles, a
case which has furnished the police
an unusual example of a feminine DR..
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde. A dealer in
real estate, noted for her business
sagacity, Mrs. Sudow built up for
tune estimated at half a million dol
lars, which goes to a sixteen-year-old
daughter, Lucille.
By day the woman dressed as other
business women dress, quietly and con-
servatively. BY night she adorned her.
self in costly gowns and jewels and
then launched into a night life Of
wild debauch, accompanied by men
and women with whom she would
have no contact during the day.
Bernard Sudow, the ,wOman's husband,
had been estranged from his wife for
several years.
Took Trips With Male Companions.
The police, in unraveling the story
Of this strange woman, found that she
had, at various times, taken long trips
with different men. They have found
some of these men, but as yet have
secured no real clew as to the per-
son who lured the woman to a clump
of trees, beat her to death, stripped
the body of clothing and then horribly
mutiated the face.
The nude body was discovered by
John Hudson, a resident of Los An
geIes, who promptly notified the pc
lice. All the clothing had been car
ried away, and 1t was with difficulty
that identification had been made.
Hudson was warned by some I'M
known person not to attend the cor
oner's inquest, and the warnings made
such an impression on him that he
left the state and went to a remote
town in Arizona, where he was later
located by the Los Angeles police, to

whom he told the threats he had re-
ceived and promised to return for the
trial, providing his present hiding
place was kept secret.
May Have Headed Drug Ring.
One theory which has been advanced
for the brutal murder is that the wom-
an headed drug ring, or possibly
was engaged in rum running" and
had been killed when she refused to
furnish further funds No enemies
have been found, and Mrs. Sudow's
unusual trait Of keeping her own per-
sonal affairs closely to herself have
handicapped the police investigation,
FOR no one has been found who could
tell when the woman left her home.
The young daughter, who has in
herited her mothers entire fortune,
was kept at school and knew almost
nothing about her mothers personal
affairs.
AS the double life of the woman
has been gradually exposed, it was
learned that she was a liberal giver
to charity. but that where she loaned
money her business instinct ruled, and
demanded prompt repayment at the
stated time.

Timur is two years younger. But
he is very much larger. We thought
Akbar was the largest lion we would

they were still quite young.
