M. M. Riedel, SO, Houston attor-
ney, faced preliminary hearing to-
day on charge of murder, follow
ing the fatal shooting yesterday
afternoon of Luther Broadway, 40,
former county judge and county

Broadway was riddled with bull
lets when he answered a knock

time of the shooting. Riedel ad-
mitted he fired the shots.
A. j. Buchanan, justice of the

said that Riedel asserted he inter
cepted last week a letter from
Broadway to his wife. The letter,

at the guest register and saw what
appeared to be a fictitious name.

he went to the room, knocked, and
when Broadway opened the door,
he saw his wife in the room.
Riedel said he then started shoot
ing.

rno;lsoll.
When Tdmonson got through &
resolution at the June 3rd meeting,
having as it's object the limiting OF
city expenditures to what they were
each month during the former j.
e. Wise regime, it was thought that
Edmonson and the other four had
put the brakes on Andy, but such
was not the case.
At q special meeting Of the board
held Monday evening Of this week
Mr.. Bettwy politely told the alder"
men that the resolution mentioned
above had not been put through
properly. therefore, it was void.
The mayor also advised them that
when they closed their June 3rd
meeting they did not recess. That
was because, 1t is understood, they
did not state what date they were
recessing to.

or Bettwy is still ruling supreme

whether they like it or not.
Bilt-there are rumblings that the
aldermen are getting tired Of the
way things are running and do not
like the idea Of the public think
ing they are lot of easy marks
Scapegoats, or whatever you might
want to call it--=and are ready fof
