COMPOSURE IS RESTORED
Prosecutor Says "Woman's Curiosity
Would "ot Haye Permitted Her to
Go Without Finding Out
Who , Had Been Shot.
MINEOLA. N. Y., Oct. 24. The jury In
the case of Mrs. Florence Conklixx Car
man, after listening; all-the afternoon
and evening to tne summing up of the
defense and tbe prosecution and the
charge of Justice Charles H. Kelby. re
tired at 9:45 o'clock tonight to begin
its deliberations.
During Mr. Granam's long summing
up in her behalf the defendant eat at
the counsel table holding her daugh
ter's hand. When Mr. Graham spoKe
of Mrs. Carman's family and her free
dom she placed a handkerchief to her
eyes and wept softly. She quickly
calmed herself when her counsel closed.
A 10-minute recess was taken and
the jury was told to decide whether it
would go to dinner before listening to
the summing un of the state's case by
District Attorney Smith. The Jury de
cided to do without dinner at that time,
o District Attorney Smith began.
"Inside Job" Charged.
"I tell you. gentlemen." he said, "I
knew this was an inside Job; that St
was done by some one who knew the
lay of the land.
"I determined to get the truth. I
went after the person who knew about
every person In the house. I tell you
this girl has been an unwilling wit
ness. The most patftetio thing In this
trial was when she said she lied be
cause she was sorry for her former
mistress.
'It is true that we have treated this
girl well. We are proud of that. She
told the truth by being well treated
and not being bullied.!'
The District Attorney vigorously de
fended Celia Coleman and then started
in to analyze the case of the defense.
"You can't expect any enlighten
ment," he said, "from Mrs. Carman.
She has a vital interest in the outcome
of this case.
Woman' Curiosity Asserted.
"Do you think that it would be hu
man for a woman to come downstairs
after hearing a noise,-finding out that
a woman had .been shot and then not
have, .the curiosity to go Into the doc
tor's office and see who it was?"
The District Attorney then took up
the Carman family. He said all was
untrue, as the witness had motives to
"I did not cross-examine Elizabeth,
because I didn't have the heart," con
tinued Mr. Smith. "God forbid that I
should ever cross-examine a little girl
who is trying to save her mother.
"Now," he went on, "I'll tell you why
Mrs. Carman said 'I shot him.' - We
don't contend she intended to kill her
husband, not at all. He testified that
his ducklng and the report or tne re
volver were simultaneous. He dropped
on the floor behind the operating chair.
SO she thought the bullet had hit her
husband.
- Headache Adda to Worry.
"I don't know whether or not it was
a case of mistaken Identity regarding
Mrs. Bailey. Nobody will ever know
unless Mrs. Carman tells. When Mrs.
Carman came from a visit to New York
that evening -she had a headache and
was in just the frame of mind to allow
small things to worry her. So she lis
tened over the telephonic Instrument.
She told Elizabeth to stop. Elizabeth
did. Then the people in the waiting
room heard some woman walk through
the dining-room. Now do you believe
Celia Coleman?"
"It makes no difference to you." con
tinued Mr.- Sn;ith. "whether Celia told
the truth. The thing for you now is to
believe that she finally told it."
The District Attorney described the
testimony about the bloodhounds as an
insult to any juror's intelligence.
Defenne Says Man Shot.
The attorney for the defense asserted
that the slayer of Mrs. Bailey undoubt
edly was a man and not his client. He
.scouted the testimony of Celia Coleman
and Frank B'arrell, two of the prose
cutor's chief witnesses, and ended by
appealing to the Jurors to restore the
defendant to her home and her family.
Justice Kelby began to deliver his
r 'i n t-u p Rhnrtlv uftAr S n'rlnnk. He ex
plained the different degrees of homi
cide, discussed at some length the
credibility of witnesses and said that
a mass of evidence in this case was ad
mitted for the purpose of Impeaching
other witnesses.
During the first hour of the jury's
deliberations, Mrs. Carman remained
in the chambers at the rear of the
court. An hour and five minutes after
the jury had retired, it sent out a re
quest for some testimony.
Mrs. Carman, highly nervous, was
brought out into the courtroom. Three
women friends and a prison guard fol
lowed her. She took her seat at the
counsel table. The jury then suddenly
decided it did not desire the testimony
and the defendant was led back to the
chambers.

placed on the official bulletins of the
German general staff. A bulletin given
out by this staff alleges that our at

Thiaucourt were repulsed with consid
erable losses to our men.
"As a matter of fact, our offensive
In this direction found It impossible to
maintain itself at all the points won in

nevertheless we were successful in re
taining, as a whole, the major part of

ment succeeded in taking.
"This morning a German officer was
sent under a flag of truce to the com
mander of the French army operating
in this region. He requested an arm
istice to bury the dead and remove Jthe
wounded. The French commander sent
this officer back to his lines and imme
diately caused the attack on the enemy
to be renewed.
"The advance we at once made
against the enemy made it possible for
us to-secure the advantage .over them
which they had been endeavoring, to
obtain over- us by an armistice, and it
showed at the same time the absurdity
of the- success claimed by our adver

QUORUM IS NOT PRESENT
'God Bless Ts Everyone," Says
Speaker Clark, and Senate Closes
Business. With Least Demon
stration in Its History.
WASHINGTON. Oct. 24. After nearly
19 months of continuous session, the
longest ever taken, the Sixty-third Con
gress adjourned its second session to
day, after the collapse of prolonged
efforts to procure cotton growers' re
lief legislation. .
Leaders in this movement agreed to
adjourn, however, only on the condi
tion that pending ' cotton relief meas
ures would have the right of way when
Congress reconvenes, December 7.
Not more than 30 members of the
House and lees than a quorum of the
Senate were in attendance when the
gavels fell on adjournment without
day. The end was accomplished
through a concurrent resolution, ending
the session at 4 o'olook in the after
noon, but clocks were ahead, actual
adjournment occurring at 1:32 In the
House and at 8:27 in tbe Senate.
As the altered hands of tbe House
elock drew near 4, while the Senate
was winding up legislative business.
Speaker Clark arose at his desk, and,
facing the scattered attendance on the
floor, said:
"This is the longest and most la
borious session that Congress ever has
known. I congratulate you - most
heartily on being able to adjourn at
last. I wish to thank every member
of the House Democrats, Republicans,
Progressives and Independents for
uniform courtesy shown to the Speaker.
Now, in the language of Tiny Tim:
God bless us every one.' "
The donate adjournment was prob
ably the most undemonstrative in its
history. Democratic leaders and a i'ew
Republicans were attting behind closed
doors, confirming nominations, when
word came that the House had carried
out the adjournment resolution. Sen
ator Kern, the majority leader, at once
moved to open the doors. When this
was ordered, the doorkeeper hurriedly
set the clock ahead and Senator Swan
son, of Virginia, presiding in the ab
sence of the Vice-President and Presi
dent Pro Tempore Clarke, announced
that the Senate was adjourned.
Senators who had remained for the
finality hurriedly letl ths chamber.
The announcing of the abandonment
of the filibuster for cotton legislation
followed a conference held early in the
day. Senator Hoke Smith, of Georgia,
and Representative Henry, of Texas,
told the Senate and House it was ap
parent no quorum could be procured
for consideration of cotton legislation
at this time, and that further filibus
tering might injure chances of ulti
mate success.
Representative Henry expressed his
conviction that Congress would be con
vened in extraordinary session by the
middle of November, when the fight
could be resumed.
One of the last acts of the House
was the adoption of & resolution au
thorizing the appointment of a com
mittee to investigate cotton conditions
In the South and to report possible
measures for Federal aid by Decem
ber 15. On the committee were Rep
resentatives Mann. Austin, Henry,
Lever, Heflin, Bell, of Georgia, and
Langley.

THE EASIEST WAY
TO END DANDRUFF
Stop Falling: Hair and Itching
Scalp.
There is one sure way that never
falls to remove dandruff completely
ana that is to dissolve It. This de
stroys it entirely. To do this, just
get about four ounces of plain, ordi
nary liquid arvon; apply it at night
when retiring; use enough to moisten
the scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
By morning most. If not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and three or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every sin
gle sign and trace of it, no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will find. too. that all Itching
and digging of the scalp will stop In
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
If you want to keep your hair look
ing rich, do by all means get rid of
dandruff, for nothing destroys the hair
so quickly. It not only starves the
hair and makes it fall out. but it
makes it stringy, straggly, dull. dry.
brittle and lifeless, and everybody
notices it. Tou can get liquid arvon
at any drug store. It Is inexpensive,
and four ounces is all you will need.
This simple remedy has never been
known to fail. Adv.
