eight hours, Woods will expiate his
crime before the firing squad.
Woods, in the death cell in the
Utah State prison, today was calm
and collected. He had nothing to
say except that he believed elem
ency should be extended in his case.
ExecutiOner Unknown.
Woods will be taken from the
death cell Friday morning into the
prison yard, where he will be bound
In a chair. The rifles Of five men
will be discharged from a barricade
and be directed at a spot designat'
ing the mans heart. Only four of
the rifles will be loaded while the
other will have q blank shot and
thus not one Of the marksmen will
know whether his weapon is the
one aiding in carrying out the death
order.
Woods was convicted of killing
his wife in their apartment here on
January 9, 1922. Following the slay-
ing, he is alleged to have placed the
body on the bed and saturated it
with benzine and set afire. Firemen
were called by neighbors. Woods
said that two men had entered his
apartment, bound and gagged him
and attacked his wife. Electric wir-
ing was around his legs. The prosecu-
ton showed that Woods had taken
his wife's life to collect insurance.
The prosecution branded the case as
one Of the most dastardly in the
criminal annals of Utah.

swung over to McAdoo.
The Underwood people were not
so extravagant In their claims. But
representatives of the Alabama
Senator asserted he would go to
New York with q strength Of about
200 votes on the first ballot, and
that these would stick with him
until he was either nominated or
gave the word to go elsewhere.
They claimed. too, like the Smith
forces, that none of these votes
would go to McAdoo.
The McAdoo forces, who swarmed
about Committee headquarters and
the hotel here. received these re-
ports with equanimity. All claims
to the contrary, they asserted, NC
Adoo would develop a majority of
strength on the first ballot, which
means in excess of $50 votes. ana
that the 200 more required to con-
stitute a two-thirds would be forth.
coming before the sixth ballot
after the favorite son and compli.
mentary voting stage had passed.
McAdOO's Friends Disturbed.
It was evident, however, that the
McAdoo people were more disturbed
than they cared TO admit over the
increasing signs OF a close working
agreement among their opponents.
They have not forgotten that
Charles F. Murphy, of New York:
Thomas Taggart, Of Indiana, and
George e. Brennan, Of Illinois, had
a vacation together at French Lick
not many weeks ago and that these
three gentlemen can come very
close to commanding one-third Of
Democratic convention necessary
to deadlock convention.
And it was recalled, too, that
New YOrk's winning the conven-
ton fight yesterday came only
after Brennan had announced with
drawal Of Chicago. These Chicago
votes quietly went over to New
York and gave Tammany ITS first
Democratic convention in fifty-six
years

Practically one-fourth of the
1000 employees of the Liggett stores
throughout the country have held
their positions continuously from
five to thirty years, according to an
investigation recently made by the
company.
At mass meeting held in New
York Of the officers of the company
and S45 employees from the central
warehouse and executive offices
each employe was presented with a
service button signifying length
of service. In a check-up in the
stores throughout the country 900
more employees who had served
five years or more were located and
presented with similar buttons.
A second check-up on the EN-.
ployes was made by the insurance
offices Of the company. Every
employe upon completing one year
of service Is insured by the com.
pany without cost to the employe.
The policies range from 1000 to
$4,000, depending upon the class Of
employment and the length Of

McAdOO Foes Rejoice
At Capture of Meet
BY New York Leaders
By GEORGE r. HOLMES,
International News Service.

Having broken a precedent OF
more than half a century by sending
the national convention to New
York, the lair of the Tammy Tiger,
the Democratic National Committee
found itself today in the throes of
heated discussion as to whether
it's action did or did not constitute
an "anti.McAdoo" victory. There
were plenty of claimants on both
sides Of the question.
Had the McAdoo forces in the
committee hung together they. were
numerically powerful enoun to
have thrown the convention to any
of the four cities in the bidding.
But there was a division.
While big majority of the
McAdoo strength stanchly' opposed
New York on the ground that 1t
was "enemy territory" a handful
of his walmest supporters voted
steadily for New York, and de-
clared they welcomed the prospect
Of fighting the 1924 battle on Tam
many's home grounds. Homer Cum.
mings, Of Connecticut, former chair
man of the committee, was one Of
these.
Others Are JubiIant.
The friends of Oscar Underwood
and Governor AL Smith Of New
York, were openly jubilant today
over the selection of New York
They, of course, unhesitatingly pro-
claimed the result an anti.McAdoo
victory and described it as first
blood" in the fight that powerful
coalition will make against the
nomination Of the ex-Secretary Of
the Treasury.
The Tammany crowd were partic-
ularly cheerful The prospect of
"Al" engaging in the greatest po-
litical fight of his career on his
home grounds, with the galleries
filled with thousands Of his friends,
was spectacle which they en-
visioned with undisguised Joy.
It may have been the exuberance
| Of the occasion or the result Of the
political conn.ving that has taken
place in Washington since Sunday,
but, at any rate, Governor Smiths
friends made open claims today that
he would go into Madison Square
Garden on the oath of next June.
with more than 300" votes on the
first ballot, and second only to Nc.
Adoo, whose lead is at this time
unquestioned.
The Smith votes, they claimed,
would come principally from NV
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania.
Massachusetts, and Illinois, with a
scattering from few other states.
And these votes, they declared.

ming much but he will have the
delegates from West Virginia.
These three candidates in the geo.
graphical center are waiting to see
the candidates on the rim outside
them run around and around until
they run themselves to death. 1t is
calculated for them that then the
question will be: which OF the three
unexhausted and unexpired aspir'
ants for the Democratic nomination
will the Democratic party choose?
It is said that Mr.. Davis is too
conservative. It IL said that Mr..
Cox was in 1920 too defeated. 1t is
said that Mr.. Ralston is too old.
Such are the arguments against
them. Yet it is dominantly thought
that il the running candidates should
in fact run themselves to death 1t
would be from among these cen.
rally located stationary candidates
that the Democratic nominee would
have to be picked.
It appears, however, that the right
word for Mr.. McAdoo's activities is
not altogether the word running"
Mr.. McAdoo, besides running in his
own free, progressive part of the
country, spends his time also boil
ing up under the feet of the other
candidates in their part OF the
country. He boils up, for instance,
conspicuously in North Carolina in
the South and in Connecticut in
the far East, and in Illittbis in
what EaSternera call the Middle
West, but what Westerners call
the last Eastern frontier.
In Illinois George Brennan, the
undoubted leader and the accused
boss" of the whole Democratic
party of all Illinois, is traditionally
a friend of Mr. Murphy, of New
York, who is similarly the leader or
the boss of the whole Democratic
party of all New York, and who at
this moment lives in order to defeat
Mr.. McAdoo for the Presidency.

16.-Federal agents today are
searching the hills 10 miles
north of Nashville for "High-
land Lassie," a woman look
out for a band of moonshiners
who have been operating in
that vicinity for several months.
A carefully planned raid by
county and Federal officers yes
terday was frustrated when the
young woman sighted the raid
ers, fired several shots into
the air and disappeared. This
warning caused the operators
of the stills to flee to safety.
Three mammoth stills were
seized and destroyed by the
officers.
Only one of the officers saw
the young woman before she
escaped through the under
! brush. He described her as
being about twenty years old,
very pretty, with long titan
hair streaming down her back.
