MAYOR OF YONKERS
TAKES HIS OWN LIFE
Sting of Defeat Too Strong for Mem
Der of Famous New York
Family.

Yonkers, N. Y.-Mayor Walter NJ.
Taussig was found this morning in the
garage behind his home, a revolver
near him, and was taken to hospital
where he died from bullet wound be-
lieved by the police to have been self
inflicted. Mayor Taussig was brothe:
of Frank w. Taussig, the famous econ
omist who served as chairman of the
Unitde States tariff commission and
has been the Henry Lee professor at
Harvard since 1901.
The mayor, who was reputed to be
wealthy, was the vice-president of the
American Chain company and was in
terested in q number of other large
industrial enterprises. He was active
in local philanthropies.
The police admitted they had learned
of no reason why the mayor should
have killed himself. A Democrat, re
was defeated for reelection early this
month by Ulrich Wiesendanger, Repub-
lican. Mrs. Taussig declared, accord
ing to the police, that if her husband
had shot himself, it was because he
was disappointed by his recent defeat.
From another source it was learned
that the mayor yesterday conferred
with local bank officials regarding his
financial affairs.

FORD BOOSTER BUSTS
UP 3RD PARTY TODAY
Meeting of Leaders at Omaha Breaks
Up When Ford Man Insists That
He Name Candidate.

Omaha, Neb. ~ Attempts to form a
national third party by uniting the
progressive forces of the middlewest
under Ford for president" banner,
failed in political conferences here
today.
Fifty delegates, called by Roy M.
Harrop, an avowed booster of the can
didacy of Henry Ford for president,
threw the conference into heated de-
bate on the question of endorsing Ford
and finally divided into two opposing
factions.
While Harrop and his followers
chung tenaciously on, reaffirmed their
support of Ford and laid plans for a
national convention of the peoples
progressive party" the opposing dele
gates held a conference of their own,
denounced the endorsement of any
candidate at this time and adjourned.
J. A. H. Hopkins, chairman of the
committee of 49," an invited speaker
at Harrop's Ford rally" brought dis
cord to the conference in attacking the
proposed endorsement of Ford.
Senators La Toilette and Borah are
JUST as progressive as 11eHTy rOru ana
are just as much entitled to our con-
sideration," Hopkins declared.
'We don't know now whether any of
these men are available to lead third
party. We should wait until our ma
tional convention to pledge our sup
port to any candidate"
Harrop's group continued its confer
ence today. The meeting will decide
whether to hold the party's national
convention at Denver or Omaha, the
only two cities bidding.

Limits the Vote of
County Supervisors

Madison, Members of county
boards who are stockholders in county
agricultural associations are disquali-
fed from voting for an appropriation
to such association, H. F. Arps, dis
trict attorney at Chiffon, was advised
today by the attorney generals de-
partment. The opinion, written by
Franklin E. Bump, assistant, held that
the interest in such an association is
legal disqualification from voting on
the proposed appropriation. The opin-
ion stated, however, that a majority
of the county board who are quail
fed to vote, can make such an ap-
preparation.

NJ AD0O is WINNER In
SOUTH DAKOTA VOTE
First Test of Strength Shows Coolidge
and Johnson Dividing Re-
publican Vote.

Sioux Falls, s. D. - The state pro-
posal conventions of the three parties
in South Dakota - Republican. DEM
ocrat and Farmer-Labor - meet in
Pierre December 4. Large uninstruct-
cd delegations viii choose their rresi-
Dental nominees in the Republican
and Farmer-Labor meetings, while
nomination of William Gibbs McAdoo
as Democratic standard bearer appear
ed assured as a result of the pro-
posal conventions held by the three
parties in each of the states SO coun-
ties yesterday.
Nineteen counties, representing o.
S25 votes, endorsed the candidacy of
Mr.. McAdoo in the Democratic county
conventions and, in the opinion of w.
w. Howes, state party chairman, made
his nomination a two-to-one certain
ty. Four full counties which with
scattered delegations carry vote of
about 5000; came out for Henry Ford
to lead the Democratic ticket, accord
ing to statements made by Eric Ellif-
son of Sioux Falls, and F. H. Hide
brandt of Watertown, who led the cam
paign to nominate the autom obile
manufacturer. The votes claimed for
Ford, some of which are contested by
McAdoo adherents, would give the De-
troit man about one sixth of the Demo-
cratic votes of South Dakota.
President Calvin Coolidge and SEN
ator Hiram Johnson of California were
the only presidential nominees consid-
cred at the SO Republican conventions,
yet most of the county delegations
were uninstructed. The president re-
ceived instructed delegations from
four counties and fifth endorsed the
national administration. Three coun-
ties including two of the ten largest
in the state, came to the favorite son.
Six other conventions instructed their
delegates to vote for the state officials
active in the Johnson cause.
Ford endorsed in two counties under
the FarmerLabor banner, other third
party counties from which reports
have been received sending their dele
gates uninstructed. Three counties
passed resolutions favoring formation
Of third party, but without naming
candidate.
Since two county Democratic con-
ventions endorsed proposals for coali-
tion between the third party and the
Democrats, the fusion question is ex-
pected to be a lively matter of bust
ness in the Farmer-Labor convention
at Pierre.

tion has been expressed by army and
navy officials over the increase of ad-
miss on prices by Broadway theatres

his reports to Brigadier-General Sla-
den, commandant at West Point.

him to testify that he and Dubinski
had purchased the liquor al soft

fused to do this, telling Mrs. Puzas at
the time that sit was no use to attempt
TO lie to the district attorney because
he would find it out sooner or later and
then they would all get in bad"
He added that there was no bad
blood between himself and the Puzas
family and that he had known them
for long time. He said that he even
knew them in the old country and had
been a constant guest at their home
for many years. He said that he had
DIR. Richards Testifies.
DR.. C. j. Richards, who with DR.. J.
T. Hastings conducted post norton
they found several peculiar circum-
stances. The first unusual thing they
noticed about the body, he said, was
the life-like flush of the face When
they opened the veins they found that
the blood had not coagulated although
the man had been dead for more than
"a hours.
DR.. Hastings remarked, DR.. Richards
testified, that the blood smelled like
"fusel oil" and that this might have
been the cause of it's remaining in
liquid form, He added that when they
opened the heart they failed to 6nd
any clots and that it is here that the
first coagulation takes place.
Another strange circumstance, he
said, was that the heart instead Of
| being contracted, as is usually the case
in deaths of this SORT, was relaxed. In
the lung cavities there was a bit Of
pink fluid, similar to that which might
| be present in the case of heart failure.
! However, there was no other indication
| of heart failure, the valves of the heart
being in perfect condition and there
was no compensation of the heart
muscle, as there is in cases of long
| standing heart trouble.
Alcohol Out of Stomach.
He said that all the alcohol was out
OF the stomach, because alcohol is the
only substance, with the exception of
water, which is absorbed directly into
the circulatory system from the stom-
ach and that five hours after being
taken into the system its presence
could not be detected.
