tol in Fatal Shooting.

the mother had testified she became
unconscious in her struggle with
Danielson. Treva then testified she
picked up the revolver Danielson had
dropped, squeezed it twice when
Danielson came toward her, and
threw 1t away.
Mrs. Wilkes became hysterical,
crying to her daughter, why didn't
you tell me?"
The jury was sent from the room
and the judge asserted his belief that
the girl was innocent.
THE real tragedy" he said. did
not take place at home: 1t has taken
place here. That woman has put her
up to it," he declared to the attorney
for the defense.
Mrs. Wilkes has declared that
Danielson attacked her in jealous
rage when she repulsed his atten-
tions and that the tragedy followed.

SPLIT |SMENACING
BALTIMORE HOPES
Some Democrats, Backed by
Republicans, Fight Bigger
Representation.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


ANNAPOLIS. February 4.-The COM
bination of recalcitrant democrats with
nearly the whole republican member
ship. in order to defeat the proposal to
increase the representation from Balti-
more city in the Maryland legislature.
has been the big incident of the week
at Annapolis.
Under the leadership of Delegate
Roberts of Prince Georges county.
twelve democrats refused to take part
in the caucus on the measure, and If
these stand fast, the solid republican
vote of thirty-three in the house of
delegates is sufficient to defeat the
measure.
The proposition, exactly in the form
In which 1t was presented in the last
democratic state platform. simply pro-
poses to submit to the voters the ques-
tion of amending the state constitution
SO as to increase the number of Sena-
tors from the city by two and the num-
Der OF delegates by twelve.
Need Three-Fifths Vote.
There is a decisive majority in both
houses for the measure. but as a pro-
posed constitutional amendment re-
qufres three-hfths vote of both
houses, a small number of democrats,
by combining with .ee republican bloc,
can secure its def@r.
II is apparent that at present there
are enough democratic votes to de-
feat the measure. Intense efforts are
Being made by democratic leaders,
however. to bring the boilers into
line. The largest democratic unit
against the bill is made up of four
democratic members of the FIVE from
Anne Arundel county. 1t is claimed,
however, that fight of a local demo-
crat for more definite recognition
from Gov. Ritchie is back of this
position.
TIE stand of the republican mem
bers is unexpected. as the platform of
their own party in the last state cleo
ton pledged even a larger increase of
city representation than did that of
the democrats.
Opposition to Militia Bill.
Considerable opposition is develop
ing to the bill providing certain
amendments to the militia law. chief
of which is making life tenure for the
office of adjutant general, now oc-
cupied by Gen. Milton A. Recokord
who commanded the 115th Infantry
during the world war.
There is general satisfaction in Of
fetal circles over the fine price Sc
cured in the sale of the installment
of the s1,5OO.0OO worth of state con-
stfuction bonds, offered here. A bid
CT 101.91. made by the Safe Deposit
and Trust Company of Baltimore, was
accepted for the last installment Of a
half million dollars worth of the
