The forenoon was taken up with the selection of a jury to fry the case and the-opening statement of Attorney J. F .Denney, who is assisting Prosecutor Fleming, in explaining to the jury what the state would attempt to prove. The opening of the trial was somewhat delayed through-the failure of the defendant to appear at the time set for the trial.

She was put to sleep and to bed at the regular time, and some time later fell from her crib to the floor and sustained a broken collar bone. Dr. Beavers was summoned and reduced the fracture, but for the next . three or four weeks the litUe youngster will have to endure life in bandages and adhesive plaster. Being so young the fracture will readily heal, but in the meantime it will be rather hard for one so young. The parents are nearly prostrated over the accident, but everything was and is being done for the little sufferer, and it is hoped that but a short time will ensue before Helen will be completely restored to her normal health. She will likely not attmpt any more feats in gymnastics until she is long enough to reach all the way from the top of the bed to the floor below. At present she is getting along nicely.

New York, Sept 14. —The continuance of the Harriman policies in the management of the Union Pacific, Southern Pacific and the chain of allied railroads was made certain today, temporarily at least when Robert S. ' Lovett W. H. Harriman’s personal counsel and close friend, was elected to succed Mr. Harriman at the head of the executive committee of the Union ■ Pacific railroad. To strengthen further the dominance of the “Harriman idea,” Jacob H. Schiff and William Rockefeller —both heavily interested . in the Harriman enterprises —were elected directors in place of Mr. Har- . riman jmd the late H. H. Rogers, and , also were chosen to places on the ex- ; ecutive committee. The Union Pacific ■ still remains without a president, as » Mr. Harriman occupied this position i also. It is however; that « an operating man —ptobably L. F. > Loree, president of..the Delaware & • Hudson—will be elected for the place ■ at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held Oct. 12. Proxies for this i meeting already in the hands of Judge Lovett and Alexander Miller, secretary of the Union Pacific, seem to guarantee that the election will be dictated by the Harriman interests. Wall i street manifested more than usual interest in today’s election in view of the rumors which went the rounds last week to the effect that a member of J. P. Morgan & Co. would be elected to the Union Pacific board. No such change developed, and, as it stands, the executive committee remains, in the parlance of the street, a “Kuhn-Loeb-Standard Oil’’ board. For, besides Judge Lovett, Jacob H. Schiff and William Rockefeller, the members are H. C. Frick of Pittsburg; Marvin Hughitt, president of the Chicago & Northwestern, and Frank A, Vanderlip, president of the National City Bank, New York. The failure of the Morgan interests to gain a place on the reconstructed board was a surprise to Wall street, where last week’s rumors had been given general credence. It was pointed out, however, that possibly the Morgan interests, fearing disastrous results, from any radical changes at this time, purposely may have postponed the selection of a representative until the regular annual election in October. o—■ — HE WILL APPOINT A FARMER A Vacancy to Be Filled on the Board of the Epileptic Village. Indianapolis, Sept. 14—In deference to the wishes of the members of the board, Governor Marshall said yesterday that he will appoint a fanner to the board of trustees of the Indiana Village of Epileptics at Newcastle to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Oliver N. Nash of Rushville. There are several applicants for the place, including Rush G. Budd of Rushville and David W. McKeen of Connersville. Friends of J. T. Arbuckle and Howard Barrett, both of Rushville, and W. H. Foreman of Terre Haute, have also written the governor in behalf of these men, but none of them has made application in person for the place. Governor Marshall is not yet ready to say what he will do other than that he will appoint a fanner. There is a large farm in connection with the epileptic village. All men mentioned in connection with the place are Democrats.
