Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

December 8, 1S6O.-There was a
large attendance of Southern Senators
at the Democratic caucus at the Capt.
toll this morning. The deliberations
were held in secret, and, although it Is
known that the question of the Seces-
sion of the Southern States from the
Union was under consideration, the de-
tails of what occurred have not been
divulged
1t appears, however, that with a
single exception there was unanimity
among those present-and every Sena-
tor from the South is said to have been
present except Senator salisbury of
Delaware, who is sick, and Senator
Toon1bs of Georgia, who is absent-4as
to the fact that unless the North
speedily evinces a disposition to five
sure additional constitutional guar
antees," the secession of South Caro-
lima, Alabama, Mississippi and Florida
will almost surely occur before March
4, when Abraham Lincoln Is to be in
augurated as President CT the United
States.
There is a strong probability, it de-
veloped at the caucus, that :jeorgia,
Louisiana, Texas and Arkansas will .ol-
low the aforementioned States out Of
the Union.
The single exception referred to Is
believed to have been Senator Pearce
of Maryland, who still holds to the i'm
preston that prompt congressional
action and public assurances from the
PreSident-elect may cause all the States
named, except South Carolina, to pause
until general Southern convention
is held and given an opportunity to
determine upon a line Of Joint Southern
action for protecting the rights of the
slaveholding States within the Union"
Furthermore, it seems that the
Senators from the border States made
it distinctly understood at the caucus
today that If the States favoring
separate and precipitate action fail to
listen to the requests of the men from
the border States, those commonwealths
will probably be compelled ito seek
safety for themselves in some COM
bination of States, which, while eschew-
ing in the case of the disruption of
the Government longer connection
with New England, will equally eschew
the policy of joining a nominal South
ern Confederacy wherein the prin-
ciples of American popular govern
ment shall be abased and those of an
oligarchic government to further par
ticular interests shall be established in
their stead
Secretary of the Treasury Cobb has
decided to resign from the cabinet and
will return home in a few days to
participate in the deliberations in his
State on the subject of secession.
Evening star., 1928-12-08

remember distinctly vicious
murder that occurred a number of years
ago. A young fellow had brutally
murdered his bride with an ak. Com
munlty feeling ran high and he faced
a hostile jury. The evidence was con-
vincing and after a short deliberation
the IL men returned a verdict of muir
DER In the flrst degree which meant
execution.
"A young woman visited the con-
demned prisoner in his cell. She was
on an ofhcial mission. Every day for
weeks she journeyed to the jail where
he was awaiting the fatal hour. He
was handsome lad Of good family.
"As the day of execution approached
the young woman confessed that she
had fallen desperately in love with the
youthful killer and energetically sought
a communication of the sentence to one
OF life imprisonment. On her finger
when he was put to death was a ring
he had given her as a keepsake. Luck
lily she has long since forgotten her In
fatuation. What waste Of sympathy!
There was another case in which a
young bridegroom wished to impress
his wife with his prosperity. He was
small-Salaried lad employed as a
clerk An honorable future was before
him. The girl was not extravagant and
was anxious to help him. He was un-
willing to wait, though. and one day
he leaped into a mail car and seized a
registered pouch Of mail. After riiing'
1t by the trackside he ascaped-tem-
porarily. A few days later he was ap-
pretended and soon after sentenced to
IS years, at Atlanta. / felt sorry for
that kid. why, I don't know. I'm sup
posed to be hard-boiied, but there is
no accounting for the sympathy We
sometimes have for the criminal"
