DIVORCE PLAINTIFF
KILLS CO-RESPONDENT
Rich Farmer Fires 4 Shots,
, Then Surrenders.
COUNTER CASE. SENSATION
With the price of. wool on the up
grade and vital questions of disease
control, range allotment and manage
ment virtually settled, central Ore
gon sheep raisers, who ended their
two days' conference here this after
noon, said they had left safely behind
them the difficult times of the read
justment period and that the future
promises prosperity beginning witn
the coming season.
Discussion of the work done by the
national and state association of wool
growers in connection with such ques
tions as freight rates, tariff and com
missions resulted in a general feeling
in favor of membership in the state
organization. Many of the sheep men
attending the session here have ex
pressed their Intentions of Joining.
Wealthy Land Owner Who Declared
Keputed Intimacy With Woman
"Black Lie" Is Victim.
SOMERSET, Ky., Feb. 17. (Spe
cial.) A. H. Wilson, wealthy land
owner, was shot and killed by John
V. Todd, rich farmer, in an attor
ney's office here immediately after
Wilson had denounced as a "black
lie" Todd's charges that he had been
Intimate with Mrs. Todd. The first
report was that the killing occurred
In the courtroom.
The killing occurred during the
taking of deposition in the divorce
proceedings. Wilson had been named
as co-respondent in Todd's counter
claim to Mrs. Todd's suit.
The scene of the killing was In the
office of Judge William Catron, at
torney for Mrs. Todd. Besides, Wil
son, who was being questioned in be
half of Mrs. Todd, those present were
Judge Catron, Todd and his attorneys.
B. T. Wesley and V. P. Smith, and
.w. O. Hays, court etenographer.
Intimacy Declared Lie.
Mrs. Todd was in the ante-room,
IWhere she could hear the testimony.
"Were you ever Intimate with Mrs.
Todd," Judge Catron asked the wit
ness.
"Absolutely no, it's a lie as black
e. one as was ever told," Wilson re
plied.
Befor there was time for any one
to Interfere, Todd whipped a pistol
from his pocket and fired four shots
at Wilson, seated only a few feet
away. Wilson, without a cry. sank
from his chair to the floor. He died
Iwlthln a few minutes
Three of the shots had taken ef
fect. Todd, showing no emotion and
Iwithout making a word of comment,
surrendered his .pistol to a lawyer
and was escorted to jail.
The killing was the result of filing
of a divorce suit by Mrs. Todd sev
eral months ago. The Todds, with
three children, lived on an adjoining
estate owned by Wilson. Wilson did
not live on this farm, his residence
being on his fine country place at the
outskirts of Somerset.
Mrs. Tood, who is 35 years old and
handsome, charged cruelty and inhu
man treatment in her divorce peti
tion. After separation from her hua
hand, she returned to live with her
parents, Mr.'and Mrs. Duke Simpson.
Wilson Named Co-respondent.
Then Todd sprang a sensation by
filing a counter claim for divorce and
he named Wilson, a married man
with one daughter, as co-respondent.
Wilson's daughter is the wfe of
James Server, star University of
Kentucky athlete and captain of the
1921 varsity football eleven.
No specific acts were charged by
Todd's attorneys in the allegations
concerning- Mrs. Todd and Wilson, but
the lawyers were planning to prove.
It is stated authoritatively, that Mrs.
Todd met Wilson at her home and also
at his home on several occasions.
Todd was placed in jail and the
grand jury has begun an investiga
tion. Tod-d has made no statement
since the killing and his attorneys are
withholding announcement of their
plans pending further conferences
with him.
Judge Catron, attorney for Mrs.
Todd, declares the charges against
her are without foundation and that
they were brought as a final effort to
prevent her from going through with
the suit for divorce, seeking custody
of the children and half of the hus
bands estate as alimony.

CABINET DISCUSSES COAL
Cheaper Transportation for Fuel
One Problem Considered.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 17. The cab
inet meeting today, it was said at the
White House, was devoted to a dis
cussion of the coal situation with
reference to the question of cheaper
transportation and also the agitation
for lower freight rates. What deci
sions, if any were reached, was not
announced.
For several weeks departments of
the government have been occupied
with problems presented by a possible
break between the coal mine opera
tors and the miners on April 1, and
with the Interstate commerce com
mission investigation of the whole
question of freight rates.
Secretary Hoover, appearing before
the commission ten days ago, urged
that the first possible reduction be
made on coal rates.

APE RESCUED FROM FIRE
Policeman, Summoned by Negress,
Risks Life for Her Pet.
PHILADELPHIA. Feb. 17. When
Sergeant Weitzel, reporting to the
Pine-street police station, was called
upon by Mrs. William Taylor, negress,
to rescue "Charles" from her abode
on the third floor of a burning build
ing today, he dashed into the house,
seized a bundle squirming under the
bed clothes and hurried to safety.
Upon reaching the outside he disen
tangled the bed clothes and gazed
Into the face of Charles," a pet ape
Weitzel had arrived at the' fire in
time to see Mrs. Taylor's husband
make a flying leap from the third
floor window. He struck a clothes
line, breaking the force of the fall,
and suffered only two broken ribs
and a fractured wrist. '
NEW YORK, Feb. 17. Criticism of
the Washington conference on arma
ments and far eastern questions was
voiced in an address tonight by Nor
man H. Davis, ex-under-secretary of
state, who said It had been "any
thing but an American diplomatic
victory."
Mr. Davis, speaking before the
council on foreign relations, centered
his attack upon the four-power treaty,
which, he declared, left the British
and Japanese fleets in control of the
far east. It also seemed, he argued,
that instead of getting rid of . the
Anglo-Japanese- alliance, the United
States had entered it, enlarged it and
changed the territory covered by it
Through the treaty, he said, Japan
obtained from the United States a
pledge of good behavior in the Pa
cific without giving a reciprocal as
surance.
Alliances Declared Faced.
America's entry into the pact, he
added, might lead this country into
the European system of alliances,
such as have made wars general in
stead of localized, rather than toward
the league of nations or "any other
genuine association of nations.
In signing the treaty England
France and Japan agreed to nothing
whatever except that for which they
were already bound as members of
the league of nations, Mr. Davis as
serted, unless it be that it is an alli
ance meaning more than its advo
cates contend, and that article two
of the four-power treaty is more
binding upon them than article ten
of the covenant of the league of na
tions."
Other Nations Considered.
Mr. Davis asked if it was not very
probable that the Chinese and Rus
sian peoples might conclude that the
United States had "abandoned our
independence of action and tradi
tional friendship for them by enter
ing into a pact with their oppressors.
It was difficult to see any objec-
tion to inviting all of the nations,
instead of only four of them, to join
the pact, Mr. Davis . said. The . an
swer, he assumed, might be that
through the league of nations they
already agreed to confer, not only on
Pacific questions, but on those in
any other portion of the world.
Certainly Holland, Portugal, China
and Russia (when there is a recog
nized Russian government), all of
whom have a vital interest in the
Pacific, should be parties to this
treaty; and why should Italy have
been left out?"
Far East Problem Cited. -
The representative ratio of naval
strength fixed at Washington cer
tainly would be upset, he declared, by
any subsequent alliance entered into
by one of the power parties to the
new' naval treaty. It would have
been wise, he thought, to have pro
hibited any party to the treaty from
making an ' .alliance or agreement
with one or more of the members,
One could not look for peace in
the far east, he, continued, until set
tlement was made of certain ques
tions left unsettled at Washington.
Among these, Mr. Davis cited Jap
anese occupation of Vladivostok and
the northern half of the island of
Sakhalin.
Another unsettled question named
by the speaker was that of Japan's
famous 21 demands of 1915.
ARMY FUND CONSIDERED
Lump Sum Proposed for Military
Before House Committee,
WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 17. A
suggestion that congress fix on
lump sum appropriation it is prepared
to vote for maintenance of the regu
lar army for the next fiscal year, and

the maximum of military efficiency
within that expenditure, was laid 'to
day before the house sub-committee
on army appropriations at its initial
consideration of the 1923 . army

CHANGE OF LIFE
WOMAN'S TRIAL
Proof That Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound is of Great
Help at This Period
Metropolis. Illinois. "I hava
taken Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
I Compound and it
is all it claims to
be and has bene
fited me wonder
fully. I had been
sick for eight
months with a
trouble which
confined me to my
bed and was only
able to be up part
of the time, when
I was advised by
Smith, to try Lydia E. Pinkham's
vegetable Lompouna and Liver
Pills. I was so much benefited by the
use of these medicines that I was able
to be up and about in two weeks. I
was at the Change of Life when I be
gan taking the medicines and I passed
over that time without any trouble.
Now I am hale and hearty, do all my
housework, washing, ironing, scrub
bing, and cooking, all there is to do
about a house, and can walk two or
three miles without getting too tired.
I know of several of my neighbors
who have been helped by your medi
cines." Mrs. Emma Culver, 705
E. 7th St., Metropolis, Illinois.
You may depend upon Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
