we can take up," said Boone, "which I think will change the minds of some .people about Parker. He has for years .been on, the verge of delirium tretnins. ,HU state of mind is anything but normal and we can demonstrate beyond a doubt that he was suffering from a form of Insanity." The suggestion was made to Boone that drunkenness and the state of mind induced by drunkenness Is no longer recognised as an excuse for crime on the theory that "Man is responsible for the inevitable consequences of his own acts." WHAT JtRT WILL DO. ."That may have some weight with the jury," said Boone, " but you can't tell me that any Jury Is going to see George Parker, one of the most harmless men In the city when he is sober, hung simply because he shot Mrs. Palln while he was drunk and on " the verge of delirium tremlns." The suggestion was then made to Boone that society must protect itself from criminals who. through intemperance or for any other cause, get Into a state of mind that makes murder sasy. "Boone admitted the force of the iretm'entT but said that the place for such men as Parker Is in a hospital where he can be properly treated and cared for until he becomes a normal nan again." This makes It apparent that the defense is to make a desperate struggle

to save the neck of the murderer of Mn. Palln. Parker has considerable proeprty, and It is understood that he is well equipped to make the fight for his life. TALKS OF SUICIDE. Boone said that he would make no effort to get his client out of Jail on bond at the, present time, for the reason that he Is so depressed and dlssplrlted that he talks of suicide and of putting an end to all of his troubles. Under the circumstances Boone does not think that It would be wise to give the prisoner his liberty. In a fit of despondency he might take his own life and that would make a double tragedy.

did this when the cold rain followed the freezing weather, and farmers believe that many of the trees and vines will be saved as a result. Another encouraging thing about the change in weather that has taken place Is the fact that it has not turned warm suddenly. There has been a

gradual rise in temperature.

This gives the vegetation a chance to recover before being wilted by the scorching rays of the sun. While the farmers are encouraged over the prospects they will not know the exact amount of loss for some time.

BUSINESS MEH TO FilEET

Commercial Club to Hear Keports of Committees on G. A. A.

The Hammond Commercial club will meet tonight in Special session for the purpose of taking up the question of bringing the O. A. R. state encampment to Hammond for the year 1911. As stated In The Times yesterday, the indications now are that the report of the various committees will be opposed for the present, at least, to bring the encampment to Hammond. It is with general regret, however, that the business men in general will overlook the opportunity. A sounding of the sentiment developes the feeling among the business men that It was not the question of raising the money, but rather that after the money had been raised It -could not be spent to advantage, because of Hammond's peculiar situation in the matter of accommodation.

WALLACE SCHOOL TO GIVE OPERETTA

BREACH TO BE BURIED IN THE POTTERS FIELD

Family of Decedent Too

Poor to Have Him Buried in Any Other Place.

Arrangements were made this noon to bury Charles Breach, the Indianapolis man .who was found dead in bed last Tuesday morning, in the potters' field. It seems that Breach's family Is too poor to have the body sent to his former home, or to have him burled In any other place but the potters field. Breach was 53 years old and, according to information received from Indianapolis, left his family last October to find work. On the 20th of this month he was a lodger In the police station and was subsequently employed by J. H. Tallman, the plumber. State street and Calumet avenue. He boarded at the Tallman residence and retired on Monday night at 9 o'clock apparently well. He Is survived by a wife, two sons and a daughter.

HOT FIGHT ON

AT CONVENTION (Continued from Page One.)

that marked the initial session of the Indiana state convention. After a stormy session the committee on rules and order of business decided to submit the question of Indorsing a candidate for the United States senate to the convention some time this morning. The Taggart-8hively forces opposed the plan bitterly at the session' of the rules and order committee, but were out-numbered In the curtain-raising struggle, and today the controversy goes to the floor of the convention Itself for settlement. EXPECT HOT FIGHT TODAY. From the spirit manifested on both sides last night, todays session is likely to be productive of one of the hottest floor battles ever waged at a state conclave in he history of hoosierdom. Feeling was running high when the convention, after being in session less than two hours last evening, decided to adjourn until today. As temporary chairman Governor Marshall made an opening address In which he advocated energetically the idea that the convention should indorse a senatorial candidate. In expectation that he would defend the Indorsement plan that is being opposed by Taggart and Senator Sively, the delegates and the crowded galleries listened intently to his words. The action of the committee - In carrying the senatorial fight to the convention and giving the delegates an opportunity to express their sentiments was somewhat of a surprise. There were some who saw in the decision of the committee a disposition to compromise with Governor Marshall. Others declared that Taggart was so sure of the ultimate fate of the plan when It came to vote, and of his ability to kill it there, that he had no hesitancy In placing it before the convention. DOTH SIDES WIS. Following the election of committeemen yesterday afternoon the various committees went into session and at the conclusion Governor Marshall's speech In the convention hall last night the committee on rules and permanent organization were ready with its report recommending the submission of the senatorial question to the convention this morning. The report was immediately adopted and the convention adjourned. While the Taggart forces won a viotory, so did those committed to the idea

of Governor Marshall. They will have a chance to vote on the issue before Senator Shively, who is unalterably opposed to it, assumes the gavel and makes his speech. With unprecented crowds, the state convention opened at 8 o'clock last night, with the streets about the convention hall blocked with thousands unable to force their way into the hall. Governor Marshall, who won first and last blood in the preliminaries, was accorded an ovation when presented as the temporary chairman. He apparently had the house with him when, in opposition to the Taggart machine, he opened his fight for selection by the convention of a candidate for United States senator. IlECEIVED AS A HERO. Marshall, who by sheer force of determination had killed off the Taggart plant to make him a mere "dummy" and shape the action of the convention on the selection of a senatorial candidate before he was heard, was received as a conquering hero. He was cheered to the echo when presented by State Chairman V. Stokes Jackson, Taggart's henchman, whom he defeated in a diplomatic battle last night. The governor, without delay, plunged Into his keynote speech, In which he hoped to head off the Taggart plan to delay the selection of a senatorial candidate until after the legislature meets next fall. In his first three minutes he had precipitated the big struggle of the convention last night instead of today. Goevrnor Marshall assailed the democratic and republican "bosses" alike; also the supreme court, the legislature and Senator Bevlrdge. He also delved into national Issues to the delight of his vast audience.

It declares that canning; is not wisdom, that cupidity tn not character. Forgetting; those things which are behind it, it presses forward toward the era of equality of all men before the law, and to the accomplishment of these ends thla convention pledges Its life, its fortune and Its sacred honor.

FIFTH WARD IN GARY IS THE PRIZE

Gary to look after this matter and is of the opinion that the cards will successfully block the efforts to circulate a remonstrance. He has stated that there , are now over 142 withdrawal cards signed In this ward and more are being secured every, day. These have already been filed and more are ready to be filed immediately. George Baker, who is well acquainted in the Fifth ward, however, says that he believes the antl-saloon sentiment to be strong here, and that there might be some danger of this section of the town ousting saloons. He believes that the Bryan Interests and the fact that many residents would like to live In restricted territory is responsible for this sentiment.

"Wets" and "Drys" Fight There for Control of the Territory; Liquor Interests Circulate Withdrawal Cards.

Since the publication in Thsj Times of the attempt of the drys to abolish liquor In the Fifth ward, the saloonkeepers have made a stringent effort to circulate withdrawal cards in that section of the city so that if any of the signers of a remonstrance are obtained by subterfuge or misrepresentation they can be withdrawn by giving power of attorney to a representative of the saloon interests. They are taking no chances, as thirty licenses have been applied for in this section of the city, and these future saloonkeepers are demanding protection from a dry crusade. William F. Mannix of Fort Wayne, who conceived the Idea of circulating the remonstrance cards, has arrived In
