WILSON EXPECTED TO
Senate Leaders Looking For
Presidential Opposition On
Ground Of Unnecessary De
iay Involved.
By L. C. Martin
(United Press Staff Correspondent.)
Washington, May 9. President Wil
son is to be asked by senate democrats
how he regards the proposal for a na
tion referendum on tlie lcHgue Oi na
tions covenuut.
Leaders today said they expect the
president to oppose it, probably on
three grounds that it necessarily in
volves separation of the treaty and the
covenant; that it would cause long de
lay in getting the league under way and
that it is wholly unnecessary because
the' people have mesne of expressing
taeir views to congress on the league,
and have expressed them.
Opposition Weakening.
Congressional sentiment favoring a
nation-wide vote has been growing re
cently. This sentiment increased today
among some senators, who .after rend
ing the pence treaty summary, believe
it will be possible to separate the treaty
and the covenant.
Senator Hitchcock said today he be
lieves those regarding the two as "r-pnr-able
will be disappointed. ''Those who
delay the league will delay the final
peace," he snid.
Senator Kenyon, who doesn't oppose
the covenant in its amended form, fav
ors the referendum as a niei.ns of re
moving all doubts that the final action
of the senate shall represent the peo
ple's will.
Kcimtor lioinh, who will introduce a
bill providing fur the referendum ,faln
Borah Wants Separation.
"The treaty and covenant nre separ
able if the senate has the nervo to sep
arate them. The treaty could then be
ratified without delay and the lcaguo be
accepted or rejected on its merits."
The suggestion was made today tiat
the senate might ucccpt the suggested
"triple alliance" hetwen this country,
France and (.treat Britain in lieu of the
league of nations, the alliance to hold
good only until opportunity for a refer
endum and the consequent senatorial ac
tion hud been given.
Senators Lodge and Brandegee nre
understood to have assured advocates of
the referendum of their approval.

CORONER'S JURY SAYS
HANNAH IS SUICIDE
Dead Man Attacked Mrs. Stot
ler In Jealous Rage Is
Woman's Story.
A verdict of suicide was returned
yesterday afternoon by the jury fail
ed by Coroner A. M. Clough to de
termine the cause of the death of Jeff
J. Hannah, who died Wednesday eve
ning at 6 o'clock from a bullet wound
m his head. The shooting occurred at
the home of Josie SStotler, 860 Trade
street, who was also shot in the head
but not seriously wounded.
The cause of the suicide and attempt
ed murder was due to jealousy oa the
part of Hannah, Mrs. tSotler testi
fied at the inquest. Hanuah had seen
another man walking with Mrs. Htot
ler and in a fit of jealousy, when in
the Stotler yard, he had tluowa her
down, chocked her end is a iight in
the back yard, had torn a locket and
jewelry from her neck.
K'nuatt Badly Scratched
In tho .back yard fight, Hannah's
face was scratched and -bleeding.
While she was looking for. the locket,
Hannnh went to her home, Mrs. Stot
ler testified, to wash his lace. At the
same time dt eeems he went to her bed
room and took from the dresser draw
er a revolver.
Later when Mrs. Stotler came to her
room, Hannah stood on the threshold
of the room while Mrs. Stotler was
on tho other side in front of the dress
er aud shot her. According to the tes
timony of dr. C. II. Robertson, the
cailbre shot struck her a glancing
blow on the right side of the head,
penetrated underneath the scalp and
came out on the right forehead. No
powder marks were found on Mrs.
Stotler 's head.
Alter firing the shot which he thot
hail killed Mrs. Stotler," it seems that
Hannah placed the gun to hn right
side of his head and fired, as his face
was powder marked. Tho shot pene
trated the skull, ranged upward thru
the upper part of the brain, 'bift did
not penetrate through the scalp. He
lived two hours after shooting him-
sof
Threats Often Made
Other witnesses. wort celled who
testified that iHannnh had said that
the Stotler woman had broken up his
home and was now trying to throw him
down. That he had talked often of
killing .lesie Stotler.
After hearing all the evidence the
jury quickly returned a verdict of sui
cide. Mrs, Wtntler will ibe released
from custody and nn charges filed
against her. On the jury were Ralph
Thompson, II. '. Marvin, Jus J. ln
grev, Edward Hnrtlev, A'. .Xadstnnok
and H. ('. Pugh. ,
The body of Hannah was sent to
Jefferson this morning and the funeral
services and burial will be tomorrow.

One Paper Views Treaty As
Overstepping Blackest
Expectations.
Berlin. May 9. (United Press)
The Berlin press was unanimously bit
ter today in denunciation of the peace
terms, an official outline of which was
published.
"Acceptance means poverty, hunger
and slavery," said the Tages' Zeitunj.
"The terms could not tie worse."
"Wilson's fourteen points are invis
ible," observed the Tsjlische Runds
chau. "The most humiliating point is
the demand for tho kaiser's surren
der." "The treaty oversteps the blackest
expectations," according to the Ta?e
blatt. "The delegation must do its ut
most to change the terms."
"The entente, who, through Wilson,
prated of justice and rights of people,
is unmasked," declared the Vorwaerts
"Wu may be forced to sign through
fear of hunger, but we will refus in
wardly. We Jiiust trust the interna

"Compared with the Brest-Litovsk

the radical Fieiheit. "But several

Italy Peeved Wren Excluded
From Administration Of
Colonies.
Rome, May 8. (United Press.)
Italy's exclusion from tho apportion
ment of mandatories ovor former Ger
man colonies has created tho most pain
ful impression hole.
"It is-inr4ieable, since Italy for
mi.lly asked for a mandate,' declared
the Epoca.
"Italy renounced compensations un
ibj' in tide Mil so she might act as tho
mnniliitory for East Africa," snid the
Idea Ma.iouale. "This had practically'
been giunted, but Monday the 'big'
tnree' excluded Italy."
The Epocn also sees the peace terms
as containing the possibility of engen
dering future wars.
"The treaty contains gorins of new
and countless wars," the newspaper
said. "It is. not likely Germany will re
fuse to sign, as the economic isolntion
she would face would mean her death.
Wilson is still unalterably hostilo to
Italian claims."
''The terms are linrd and will not bo
accepted without a fight," is the opin
ion of the (nornalc I) Italia. "Jiut
(ienni.ny must sign, as she cannot es-
npo her fate."
