His screams attracted crowd of peo- ple in the vicinity. Officer McCar- thy said today it was the largest and most ominous appearing gath ering he had ever seen at an accide
 The driver of the car, believed to be Desmone continued on after striking the man who was left in the road.
 Car Didn't Stop
 Officers Garvey and Mccarthy were just ringing up, about 8:3O o'clock at Sixth and South Leon- crash, followed by screams. They saw a car approaching at fast rate. One of its headlights was not lit. Officer Mccarthy got out to the middle of the street, held up his hand and blew his whistle. He was directly under the arc light. The approaching car failed to stop.
 The policemen then jumped into their car and pursued the fleeing car for two blocks. They booked the driver, Desmone, at headquar- ters on charges of driving while under the influence of liquor and evading responsibility. In the front seat was an IS months child and in the rear. Mrs Desmone and four other children.
 The officers went back with their prisoner to the scene of the accl- dent but remarks of the crowd hinted at danger to the hit and run driver, and the man was whisked to the police station.

with in the fight which will be staged at a closed party caucus shortly before congress convenes are Chairman Sam Rayburn, d., Texas, of the House interstate and foreign commerce committee, and Rep John J. O'Connor, d.. N. Y.
 Rayburn has an entre to the White House whcih few other members have. O'Connor is a brother of Basil O'Connor, Presi- dent Roosevelt's former law part ner.
 The north and south" wings of the party will figure in the fight Practically all important commit tee chairmanships are held by southerners. Texas predominate. Rainey's strength was that he had been floor leader under John N. Garner and was from the north. Other plums could go southward.
 Must Re Able Man
 The possibility of a diminished democratic majority in the next house adds to the importance of having speaking able to keep party congressman in line.
 The social insurance program, feNlSloIi ol tH0 IN HA, anu tL llOSt ol other major Legislative proposals would be jeopardized if the White House was without a capable lieu tenant in the speakers chair. Little actual groundwork for speaker ship campaign of candidates can be laid however until after the No , vember elections.
 McDuffie and Bankhead are con- sidered along the most capable de- baters in the house. Bankhead is chairman of the powerful rules committee. Byrns, as majority lead CT under Rainey was subject to some criticism for his handling of the soldiers bonus issue and the veterans economy bill, but has a powerful nucleus of supporters.
 The administration was said to feel that an able successor to the speaker could be picked with ease from the democratic majority. An attempt however will doubtless be made to prevent factional fights which might affect party harmony during the session.
 Tammany Helped Raincy
 Tammany congressman swung the votes which put Rainey in the speakers chair. Rep Thomas Gull len, D., N. Y., leader of the Tam many delegation became assistant floor leader. The Tammany bloc of votes will be strategic factor in the speakership fight.
 Rainey as speaker of the historic 7Srd congress played an importan. role in New Deal legislation. With a preponderant democratic major ity he put through gag rules which insured right of way for adminis- tration legislation. He was con- stantly taunted by republican charges of railroading.

 The scene:
 Jarnegin and Miss Franklin were entertaining friends at dinner i'll celebration of the approaching marriage of the composers niece, Miss Dorothy Watson, to William Green, and also in celebration of the screen tests scheduled for to- day.
 The composer was in good spir- it's. The guests arrived in a gay mood.
 The host excused himself for q moment after they had arrived, saying he wanted to prepare for dinner. He told the others to "gp ahead"
 Miss Franklin and the guests were at the table in the dining room. Jarnegin crossed a patio to tho living room of the house.
 What happened in the next few minutes became of increasing i'm portances today in the police inves- tigation. So far, they know only that:
 Afew minutes later the guests heard a muffled report which sounded to them Hike the explo- sion of a cap pistol"
 Miss Franklin called her hus- bands name several times. There was on answer. She went to in- vestigate.
 Jarnegiu was slumped in a chair in the living room.
 Six feet away from his chair and in another chair was the pistol she told police.
 She summoned the guests. and police were called. The doctor re- ported that Jarnegin died almost instantly. There was, he said, no spasmodic action; nothing that might cause him to fling the pis- tol across the room. He merely slumped over and died.
 Tn addition, Miss Franklin said, there was no motive for suicide. On the contrary, there was every reason for elation because of their ''big break"
 Police added to the mystery by announcing that there were no visible powder burns on the body. such as might have been expected if the bullet was fired at close range.

 Four towns of Connecticut failed to elect delegates last Thursday in accordance with the orders of the democratic state central committee. In Warren the democrats met Thursday night and recessed until Friday night in order to give the leaders time to find two party members "who would have time to go to the state convention" John Chap- plus and Augustus Chappius were finally chosen. In Vest brook the party caucus was not held until Friday night. Salem and New Fairfield took no action at all.
