DEMOCRATS READY
 FOR CONVENTION
Rooms Already Engaged at
 Hotel Taft in Elm City

New Haven, July 30 Pl-Party headquarters for the democrats were engaged at Hotel Taft. this city. by Secretary A. s. Lynch of the state central committee today and the rooms will probably be taken over week after next.
 There is no indication yet as to the call for the democratic primaries in the state to choose delegates as to the state convention which prob- ably will be held about the middle of September. Theslast meeting of the state committee empowered State Chairman J. J. Walsh of Meriden to issue the call and it Is expected shortly. If the convention is 10 be held about September 15, the pri- mary call will issue before many days.
 Republican Meeting.
 A meeting of the republican state central committeee is expected to be held next week to issue the caucus call for delegates to the state con- vention which 1t is thought will be held in Hartford about September 15.
 While nothing official was known here as to the time of the meeting it was thought by some committee men that 1t might be held next week Saturday when republicans from the state generally will be at Savin Rock for shore dinner.
 AS the gathering will sbe a. week end affair with everybody leisurely present 1t is thought the occasion would be opportune for meeting.
 Also, United States Senator Bing- ham will be present at the gathering and Governor Trumbull has accepted an invitation to be present.
 All other potential candidates for places on the state ticket will be handy.
 AS to the time of the party con- ventions 1t is believed that neither will hold theirs in Labor Day week which may throw both into the week following although the democrats may choose a week later.
 In advance of state conventions candidates in various senatorial dis tricts on the part of the republicans are now coming up for discussions.

SHERIFF CAPTURES
BARR|CADED KILLER
Enters House After Wife
Slayer, Babes in Arms,
Held Posse at Bay.


CINCINNATI, August 13-Scott
Workman, 40, a farmer, who shot and
killed his wife. Nora. 38. at their home
near New Richmond Ohio. today, was
taken to the Batavia Jail early this
afternoon after he had defied Sheriff
Fred CrOsswell and a posse to arrest
him.
Sheriff Crosswell, after being held at
bay for some time. ignored the threats
of Workman, entered the house and
placed the slayer under arrest.
The Workman children. led by
Frances. IS, the eldest. had fed from
the house after their mother was
slain. They made their escape while
their father was raving and stamping
through the house. With two small
children in his arms, he dared the Of
ficers to shoot.
First news of the tragedy was TAX
en- to the village Of New Richmond by
Frances Workman. Holding ty the
hand another sister, Elona, ), she fell
terror stricken into the doorway of a
neighboring home and breathiesSly
told of the tragedy. Her mother was
her brothers and sisters might also be
slain.
Word spread quickly and townsfolk
gathered their arms and organized.
County officials then led siege of the
barricaded home. In the meantime
some other Workman children had
fed. They are Myrtle. 7;Osa, Ia;
Ernest, 10; Hazel. 8, and Virginia, Z.
County officials said Workman re-
Gently had BEEN arrested for boot
logging. They also knew that town
ship officials, with pity for the neg
lected children Of Workman and his
wife, were planning to take steps to
take the children away from the
couple.
1t was this plan that prompted
Workman to his crime, officials said.
According to the stories of his chill
dren, Workman began brooding and
then today the storm broke.
After upbraiding the mother Of his
nine children for what he imagined
was her part in seeking to break up
the household, he suddenly fired five
shots into her body. When the mother
fell dead, the nine children set up
terror-stricken cries. This seemed
only to excite their father, who bran
dished his pistol and threatened to
shoot them all.
