And it was one of the carious anomalies of fate that Jie created a president only to have that president take the leadership of his party away from him. Tho . 1916 convention at St. Louis was all, Wilson. There were no fights of any kind and Bryan was not in the picture. At San Francisco in 1920 Woodrow Wil son on his sick bed in Washing ton, not Bryan, dominated the convention. Bryan's foe. Gover nor James M. Cox of Ohio, was nominated. Bryan had tried to beat him, of all the candidates. Bryan's support was luke-warm of Cox in the campaign. In the 1924 convention Bryan came into his own again. - There had been every sign that the McAdoo-Smith schism would continue ' and' perhaps again ap pear at the 1928 convention. Al Smith's boom virtually has been launched. It is, believed gener ally that McAdoo is as determined as ever to fight the eastern group, and particularly to resent Smith's quest of the presidency. Bryan always had been as bitter an enemy; of. this group as MvAdoo. He denounced it vigorously at con vention after convention.

Labombarde , was brought to Nashua - immediately and locked York last summer McAdoo him-!nP ' formal charge of mur- self was almost forgotten at times because of -the bitterness of the easterners toward- the- Commoner.

According to the .story told by Ijibombarde, Charles Lefebvre told him that the Gillls sisters were fond of him and had prom: Ised to will him their home and their money when they died Lefebvre suggested that, he and Labombarde kill the aged . women and divide the money, the confes sloa continued, and Labombarde agreed. On Wednesday afternoon! they went to the Gillis home "to. the house where there was a wood pile and took an armful of sticks," Labombarde said. "Each of us took one of the sticks. 1-wentinto the pantry; where Helen Gillis was and raised my arm with the stick in my hand.- I did not mean to hit here, but I did.
