THOMAS TAYLOR
COURTED DEATH
Jordon's Bullets Killed Him.
OuarreEed With Wife and Threatened
NeiGhbOrS-= Graphic Recital
Of the Witnesses.

Especial by John Mitchell, Jr.)
1t was a strange story told to Cor
oner E. G. Hill, at the City Hall, Fri
day, July 9th concerning the fatal
shooting of Thomas Taylor, who
quarreled with his wife at their home
on North 26th Street, threw bricks
into his own window and then went
on rampage to kill Spider" and "to
blow up 26th Street. A body shot
up, a broken arm, a bullet through
the lung and heart and resting
place upon a cooling board' in Fun
eral Director Robert c. Scott's
morgue, were the results of this
drunken orgie. On the other hand
Norman Jordan is in st. Philips Hos
pital, having been shot twice by Tay-
ior, while his brother Rogers, who is
said to have fired the bullets, which
really ended Taylor's career is going
about under bail with bruised and
gashed head as a result of Taylor's
hammering him with the pistol after
the weapon did not 60 off, in his at
tempt to kill Rogers.
Robert Nichols Statement
Robert Nichols, 1908 N. 26th St.,
said that on Sunday morning, July
22nd, he was on 26th and S Streets.
Taylor came out and said, "Where
is that Spider?" Jordan came down
the street. He heard three shots fired
in Rogers Jordan's yard. Taylor had
a pistol when he came in the street.
Norman Jordan is in the hospital.
Taylor came out of the house saying
he was shot. Norman Jordan came
out of the alley and shot him. Taylor
shot Jordan twice. Rogers Jordan
lives three doors from Taylor.
Rev. Trent There Too.
Rev. Edward Trent, 504 E. Federal
Street, said that on that Sunday
morning, he was on his way to his
church in Hanover. He had some OF
his members living over there and he
went by to get Mrs. Berry to take her
down. He also wanted to see her
brother. Just as he was about to
sit down, crowd of men went on by.
They were talking. A young man
came out few doors above. He said
that he supposed that they were all
ready. Some one said that ne was
going to shoot somebody. A young
man came out of the yard. He said,
"What are you raising excitement
about? Nobody's shot but me. | am
shot to DEATH" He attempted to sit
on the curbstone.
Shot Him Three Times
A man came out of the alley and
shot the man three or four times.
That's all I know about it.
Melvin James, 1921 n. 26th Street,
said, "I live next door to Tom Taylor.
I was in front of my gate on the side
walk. Norman Jordan went into his
brothers gate, into his brothers alley.
He met Tom Taylor coming out. Tay-
lor asked Norman if he wanted some
too. He shot Norman in the leg. AS
Norman started to go into the house,
Tavlor shot him in the back Taylor
came and sat on the curbstone and
then he got up and sat on his porch.
Norman got his pistol and shot at
Tavlor three or four times. Nor
man was in his brothers yard when
he shot at Taylor.
Wife TestiGes
Mrs. Susie Taylor, 1919 N. Goth
Street. wife of the dead man, with
whom he he'd been previously quar-
rellinp said, MY husband had some
kind of argument with Rogers Jordan

RADICAL TARIFF
SHIFTS OPPOSED
LongWorth Thinks Present
Act Should Be Basis.
BY JOSEPH S. WASNEY,
United Press staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Modern-
ization of the tariff law, without a
complete change of all schedules,
will be the aim of congress, when it
reaches the revision subject, accord
ing to Nicholas Longworth, speak
er Of the house.
He expressed the view that a
complete change of all schedules
would have a detrimental effect on
business and that hearings on the
revision, which will start before the
House ways and means committee
Jan. 7, will develop evidence that
strong changes are needed only in
few schedules.
THE present tariff act has worked
so well that I hope it will not be
completely changed Longworth
said. There could not be an en-
tire change without business being
effected.
"FThe tariff bill when it is reported
out undoubtedly will follow the lines
of the Republican platform to pro-
tect American industry and labor"
The ways and means committee
was called to meet today to de-
eide formally on the tariff revision
problem. Majority members agreed
Monday, however, that hearings
would start Jan. and be COM
| pleted before March 4.

hint HOAX IN
YOUNG WIDOWS
DISAPPEARANCE
Sent Postcards to Friends to
Be Mailed Back to
Louisville.

BIZ United Press
LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. AIRS.
Ella Mcdowell Rogers, pretty
young widow who dropped from
sight here last October, may have
hoaxed relatives and police and dis
appeared by pre-arrangement, it
was learned here today.
A few days before she dropped
from sight, Mrs. Rogers sent several
post cards tc a woman friend in
Chicago with request that they be
mailed back to friends in Louisville,
police learned.
1t also was learned that on the
day the young widow disappeared,
an automobile bearing an Illinois
license was parked in front of her
apartment during the day.
Police, proceeding on the theory
that Mrs. Rogers was murdered and
ner body cremated, had the ashes
in the furnace of her apartment
analysed. The analysis failed to de-
velop anything tangible, however.
The post cards, officers said, were
sent to Mrs. Louis Heck, wife of a
Chicago attorney who formerly lived
here.
Mrs. Rogers was supposed to be
in Chicago at the time the cards
were mailed, but left here for the
east, detectives said.

1t was reported the delay was

pert may come here and advise

The committee agreed that the
law is clear on the subject of a
bond issue for a municipal airport,
providing bonds may be issued when
immediate expenditures are as high
as one-tenth of one per cent Of the
assessed valuation, which in this
case would mean a minimum eXpen-
diture of $675,000.
With site 8, approved by the
mayor and city council, costing less
than 100000, this would leave al
most 100000 for improving the field
and providing hangers and equip
ment.
Slack indicated plans for acquir-
ing the site will be presented to
the city council at its meeting in
