THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, WEDNESDAY JTJXiX 17, The Man the Senate Canned SHERIFF IS STILL AFTER AUTOMOBILE Says He Cannot Give County Proper Police Protection Without One. FIRST WEDDIIIG III GLEH HELD TODAY Thos. Baldwin and Miss Bertha Ward, Plight Troth on Bridge.
ARCHBALD CASE IS . Oil IIIJHE SENATE Senate Organized' as Court and Will Reconvene on Friday Afternoon. WASHINGTON. D. C, July 17. The trial of Judge Robert W. Archbald of the Commerce court, accused of misbehavior by alleged acceptance of credit and favors from litigants before his court got under way yesterday. The senate wag sworn in as a court of impeachment and a sumona for the accused judge, calling him to its bar on July 19th, was issued. Judge Archbald Is in Scranton. The sergeant-at-arms of the senate will serve him there today. At 12:30 o'clock Friday, the court of impeachment will reconvene with the accused jurist present and determine if the trial shall proceed at cnce or go over until fall, perhaps to
a special session in November. Mem-! bers of the senate have consulted with j the judge and his counsel and are pre-: pared to meet his wishes to have the j trial go over until fall. f
The House managers who appear as ;
prosecutors, will oppose . such a continuance. Several members of the senate are prepared to urge speedy action. The managers of the senate will settle the question, and will agree, it is believed, to a recess of the court until early in November. If a recess is not
taken a special session, of congress probably will be agked. Attended with the solemnity which marks an occasion where a federal cfficer is called to account for "high rimes and misdemeanors" against the i ivernment, the senate converted itself today into a "high court for the trial of impeachment. Demands Summons Issue. Henry D. Clayton of Alabama, chairman of the House committee of impeachment managers, read the demand for a summons for the judge. "We, as managers of the House of T?epref ntattves, demand that a process be issued for Robert W. Archbald," said Judge Clayton, "and that he be required to appear at the bar of the Senate and answer the articles of impeachment." An order for his appearance Monday was offered by Senator Clark of Wyoming, chairman of the Senate committee on judiciary, and was objected to by Mr. Clayton and Senator Bacon. Friday was then fixed. "When the judge has been served with the process," said Mr. Clayton, 'then he may appear and request a reasonable time to make his answer to the articles of impeachment." T 'Si? than an hour was taken up 1,vi th organization of the court of rhr'nt and the adoption of the ,i orders for the appearance of (L:fc-,""t rrd witnesses. First Trial Since Swayne's.

The first man to be expelled from the senate in more than a century. William A. Lorimer, of Illinois, whose election to the United States Senate was declared valid by that body because of alleged corruption in connection with the gathering of his campaign funds. Mr. Lorimer was expelled on a resolution introduced by Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee, the youngest member of the upper branch of the National legislature, who was one of the most energetic leaders in the fight to oust the "Blond Boss," of Illinois Republican politics. Up to the time of Senator Lorimer's disgraceful exit, no member had been expelled from that body in 115 years.
MILK SUPPLY SHORT
According to reports received by Charles Flook, city dairy inspector, the milk supply does not equal the demand at the present. He says that some dairymen are finding it difficult to supply all of them customers with the amount of milk which they desire.

One Murder and Bomb Outrage Features of a Battle Early This Morning.
(National News Assoc!atlon NEW YORK, July 17. Gang warfare was transferred to Harlem early today and out of it grew a murder and a mob outrage. Shortly before 2 c-'clock there was a fusilade of from 10 to 15 shots at the corner of 180th street and Second avenue. When the police arrived on the scene they
Judge John Pick- j found the body of a well dressed man

An automobile most be secured for the sheriff. This is the verdict of the sheriff and his deputy. Without it the county cannot be given the police protections it should have, they say. An automobile is the only quick method of transportation which the sheriff has of answering calls to various parts of the county. It is probable that the commissioners will set aside a special fund, so that the sheriff will have a conveyance at his service when hurry np calls come in. Recently the deputy sheriff, Clarence Mote was called to Boston to arrest a. man accused of stealing hogs. He secured an automobile and arrived on the scene just in time to prevent the man's escape. If he had waited for the train or taken any other mode of conveyance he would have been too late, and the thief would have escaped. Sheriff Steen was called to Economy last week to arrest a horse thief. He took an automobile and barely reached the scene in time to catch the man.
Other numerous instances could be cit
ed to show that it would cost the county less to purchase a machine for the sheriff than to pay hire on each occasion.
WRECKED RACING FAST ItlTERURBAN
In a mad race with the Dayton-Indianapolis Limited traction car last night, "King" Brumfield, was severely injured when the automobile which he was driving, skidded and turned over the culvert west of Reidston. Young Brumfield sustained two brok
en ribs, two teeth knocked out and several slight bruises and cuts. The machine was almost a total wreck. The Richmond-Indianapolis Limited car which left Richmond last night about 8 o'clock was running past the Peacock road, west of town about thirty miles an hour. The idea of racing against it appealed to young Brumfield and putting on all the power, cutting on the exhaust, he sped down the road. Just after passing Reidston at terrific speed his machine hit a bump, with the result that before he could regain control of the racing machine he had landed in the ditch at one side of the road, near a culvert. He was taken to Centerville where his wounds were dressed and then taken to the county poor farm where his father is superintendent.
Thomas Baldwin of Hagerstown and his sweetheart. Miss Bertha Ward, of the same place, came to Richmond this morning to get their marriage license. They were accompanied by their parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Baldwin and Mr. and Mrs. William A. Ward, and by the Rev. Leander Chamness of Economy and a few other relatives and intimate friends. After the license had been secured the impatient groom-elect suggested that there be no delay In having the ceremony performed, and he said he could think of no' more ideal place to be married than in Glen Miller park, so it came to pass that at high noon today the happy young lovers stood on the bridge at the south end of the lake, amid the beautiful shrubbery and flower beds on both banks and solemnly plighted their troth. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Mr. Chamness. This was the irst wedding ever performed in the beautiful park. After the ceremony Mr. and Mrs. Baldwin spent the first part of their honeymoon on Honeysuckle Hill, where the wedding picnic feast was spread. They left this afternoon for a visit with relatives at Straughn's Station.
PROPOSAL HEARING POSTPONED AGAIN
Further consideration of the water works question which was scheduled for today was postponed until next Wednesday morning at 9 o'clock owing to the fact that the members of the city legal department were obliged to work on the damage suit brought by the administrator of the estate of the late Ora Rau. versus the City of Richmond. Light Heat & Power company, and the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern Traction company. This case will be heard tomorrow in the Randolph circuit court unless a compromise is effected.
WERE MARRIED LAST EVENING
A wedding was celebrated last evening at eight o'clock at the home of President and Mrs. Robert Kelly in College avenue, when Mrs. Minnie Mills Hadley was married to Mr. Benjamin W. Anderson of Plainfield. The ceremony was performed by Dr. Kelly. The bride was the popular dining room matron at Earlham College and has many friends here as well as on the West Side. Mr. Anderson is a banker at Plainfield. They left this morning for their new home.
WOMAN IS LEADER OF STRIKERS' ARMY That Made a Hostile Demonstration Against a New Bedford Mill Today. (National News AstocUtloo) NEW BEDFORD. Mass.. July 17. One thousand members of the fourteen thousand striking men and women testile workers made a hostile demonstration at the Butler mills gate today in an attempt to intimidate the non striking workers. When the police came up and began to disburse the strikers a woman member of the I. W. W. attacked policeman James Sullivan so savagely that she had to be overpowered and placed under arrest. More than 20,000 textile operatives and over 1.000.000 spindles are now idle throughout the state. In all twenty-five separate strikes are on. Industrial Workers of the World pickets lined the streets leading to the mills attempting to prevent non strikers going to work this morning. Leaders of the I. W. W. threatened to plunge New Bedford into a general strike unless the textile workers demands are granted. A conference of mill agents and a committee of weavers was scheduled to be held this af
ternoon to discuss the abolition of the
grading system In an effort to avert
a threatened general strike. The wea
vers union postponed action on a gen
eral strike until after the conference.

A CLASSIFICATION j OF WEST FREIGHT Changes Planned Have Created a Stir Among All Classes of Shippers. (National News Association) DETROIT, Mich, July 17. Change ; in the Western freight classification, which created a stir among shippers and receivers of freight throughout the West a few months ago. will be exhaustively discussed at a two day's" meeting of the National Industrial TrafHc League, which began in this city today. When alterations In the claudication wore announced a storm of protest came from members of commercial organizations. It was contended that by a process of shifting various' commodities from one class to another the railroads were attempting to bring about a general raise in freight rates. ; An appeal was made to the Inter- " state Commerce Commission, and a special examiner of that body was ,, sent to Chicago to hear evidence and arguments. After the examiner had , submitted his report the commission ' suspended the operation of the new classification for 120 days pending further inquiry. Since then testimony has been taken in Chicago and other ' cities, and the commission now hat the case under advisement.

UTILE GIRL
DROWNS SELF
, NEW YORK, July 17. The body of a youth was found in the Hudson river ylt Hoboken this afternoon and was identified as that of Nathan Schwartz, the young man who tortured young Julia Conners to death. The identification was made by Clyde Alexander, a brother-in-law of Schwartz. "Nathan committed suicide a3 his father wanted him to do," said Alexander. There was no reason why he should lire after what he had done. He probably realized the enormity of his crime after bis father had cast him off."
Eight of them had been fired into his back, evidently after he had fallen from a shot in the head. The police summoned an ambulance although the man was dead when found. Just as the ambulance drew up an explosion was heard in 109th street which showed that an infernal machine had been set off on the first
floor of the tenement at 308 East 109th 1
street, shattering the front of the
I building. At the Harlem hospital an effort was made to identify the dead man but without success. His body
was then removed to the morgue. A short time after the shooting a ! wounded man walked into the 76th !
Street police station. He said he had j been hurt in a bomb explosion and i asked medical aid. After being treat- i ed he disappeared before the police ! could question him further. j The authorities began an investi-1 gation along the line that the shoot-! ing and bomb outrage were in some j way connected. They believe that the
old gang adage that dead men tell no lies." is involved in the murder of the unknown man.
