Headquarters are at the Westcott lgtel, where every courtesy Is being shown the visitors and where the officera and various committees are carrying forward the business matters pertaining to the meeting. Many of the business matters were considered Tuesday afternoon, there being meetings of the executive board, the board of manag ers, a conference of district chairmen. a meeting of managers with club presidents, and a meeting of 'the pioneer club workers.

Aa to what contests may develop in the election of officers or in choosing the next place of meeting. nothing la known at this time. In former years the club women of the state were divided into two state organisations but eventually the bodies were brought together Into the present large organisation, which has been able to accomplish much more aa 'thus constituted than under the former conditions. Owing largely to Its advantage In population over any of the other cltlea of the state, Indianapolis no doubt leads all others In the number of clubs that are affiliated with the state organisation, the total being at least twenty-five.

ETHEL LENEVE WAS FOUND JOT GUILTY Dr. Crippen's Affinity Was Not Even Placed Upon the Witness Stand.

JURY'S VERDICT PROMPT JURORS WERE OUT ONLY TWENTY MINUTES BEFORE DECIDING QILtKNEW NOTHING OF'Hfft LOVER'8 CRIME. (American News Service) London, Oct 25. Miss Ethel Clare Leneve was acquitted this afternoon of the charge of being accessory after the fact in the murder of Belle Elmore Crippen. The trial consumed less than a day. There were no witnesses for the defense, Miss Leneve herself not being examined. Prosecutor Muir outlined his case by declaring- Miss - Leneve herself was the sole motive for Crippen's crime: Mrs. Jackson, her former landlady testified to the unusual emotions displayed by Miss Leneve on the date which tallied, with that on which Belle .Elmore was murdered, but the cross-examination brought out the fact that the same emotions were evidenced as long as two weeks prior to that time. It was brought out from Inspector Dew that Crippen declared when arrested that Ethel knew nothing of the charges against him. The counsel for the girl shouldered all responsibility for not examining any witnesses or subjecting his client to a trying ordeal. Chief Justice Alverstone cautioned the jury that the conviction must be based on facts, not on suspicion. The jury deliberated twenty minutes. A majority of the big audience were women, but their keen scrutiny was tempered by a large degree of pity. WANT POLICE AUTO "What the police department needs is an automobile," said Superintendent Gormon this morning. We are doing the best work possible under the circumstances but on hurry up calls we can't get on the grounds as quickly as we should. "f . Mr. Gormon has been .wanting - an automobile some time as he says that an other ' cities of Richmond's 'size, use - autos in the police departments. The department u about .10 men under the limit at the present time,' as there are only 15 patrolmen, three' officers and a patrol driver. ; The , department Is allowed a patrolman for every 1,000 population in the city and also an officer. for every five patrolmen. The necessity of a large department, has never been found felt in Richmond.

Greensburg Jurist Today Tells

Factory Men the Benefits Republican Party Rule Has Brought. ARE BEST PAID MEN 5 IN THE WHOLE WORLD Says Democrats Call : Roose velt a Puff of Wind, but Says None of Them Are Up to His Standards. - "Which shall it be, as in 1898 un der the Wilson-Gorman tariff, when . mortgages were blng foreclosed, when wages were at base standards, when soup houses were feeding the publlo or as now, in 1910, when the farmers are commanding the highest prices, the American laboring man la getting better wages for his work than any laborer in the world, ' and when the v entire country is enjoying the greatest prosperity," cried Judge Thomas R. Davidson, of Greensburg. who address ed an assembly of shon men at the corner of Twelfth and North B streets about noon today, , "The .former is what the democrata gave you, and the latter In .the pro duct of the republican regime. All the good that has come' In the United States in the last fifty years, since the election of Abraham Lincoln, r has -come, from the republican party. The and needed a change. We- surely got one but who wants ; a repetition, of those times. ' ' Have the Price to Pay. , "Prices are hign now, but who la there that would object to high prices when he has a Job and money in his pocket to pay the price? I know of a family in, Greensburg that say eggs are too expensive at 25 cents a. doeen and that they cannot afford to keep them In the house. - However . every Saturday s night the four children In this family go to the nlcolodeum and spend .five .cento; apiece. That's enough , to buy a dosen eggs. Don't think I am discouraging good living but I want to show that the peoplethe laboring man Is , now better, off than he was in 1896. The American laboring man Is get ting the best wages of any laborer la the entire world. Would you change it? In the January's American Fader. atlonlst, Gompers had an" article saying that the American t laborer has the best home. Is the best clothed and his ' children are the best educated of any laborer's . In the entire world. Did the democrats and free trade do this for you, men. or was it the republican t party and their protective tariff? No matter how cheap things are if you haven't a Job and haven't money, yon cant buy. Not Like Roosevelt. 'Every four years the democrata come with a big - boo' but they are merely trying to scare you. They say Roosevelt is Just a wind. The demo crats are not made of such stuff as Is Roosevelt. They are not' strong; hon est, upright and courageous, aa Theo dore Roosevelt. 'Did the democrata talk on good wages, good prices and general .prosperity In : 189? No. They .talked against the possession of the "' Island possessions of the United States and said we were - losing . our freadeca. They couldn't talk about the prices and prosperity. J r' Judge Davidson talked to the working men only a few minutes. He contrasted the administrations of Cleve land and those of Republican preel' dents, showing : the prosperity : which is existing now and the "bad times' experienced during the democratic ad ministrations.
