Noted New York Politician a Victim
of Paralysis.
New York, Oct. 13.—Timothy L.

Mr. Woodruff rallied for a time from
his first attack and hopes were enter
tained of his recovery.
Mr. Woodruff joined the Republican
party and as a Republican he was an
active political figure in New York
state for nearly thirty years and, un
til a year ago when he left that party
and joined the Progressives, his name
was nearly always, to be found on the
roll of Republican national, state and

Ten Steamships Respond to Ap
peals for Assistance and
Save 500 Persons.
Liverpool, Oct. 12.—The British
Steamship Volturno, Rotterdam for
New York with 757 passengers and
crew on board, burned in mid-Atlantic
and 136 persons are missing, accord
ing to a wireless dispatch from the
Cunarder Carmania.
The meager report said that the Vol
turno, afire from stem to stern, was
abandoned in latitude 48.25, longitude
34.33, and burned to the water's edge.
Only 521 of her passengers and crew
were saved so far as the Carmania
knew.
The Carmania's wireless said the
fire broke out aboard the Volturno at
9:50 Friday morning. Ten steam
ships responded to the Volturno's
wireless distress signals, but by the
time they reached the doomed liner
and stood by she had burned to the
water's edge and her 521 survivors
were in lifeboats and rafts.
The Volturno was owned by the Ca
nadian Northern Steamship company,
known as the Royal Mail line. She
was under charter by tfle Uranium
company of Rotterdam. She was a
twin screw steamship of 3,602 gross
tonnage, built in 1906.
The vessels that went to the Vol*
turno's assistance and the survivors
they have aboard are:
Carmania, 11 La Touraine, 40:
Minneapolis, 30 Rappahannock, 19
Czar, 102 Narragansett, 29 Devonia,
59 Kroonland, 90 Grosser Furst, 105
and Seidlitz, 36.
The Volturno's passengers were
mostly emigrants. She sailed from
Rotterdam on Oct. 2 with twenty-four
cabin passengers, 540 steerage and a
crew of 193.
Wireless Summons Aid.
When the stirring S. O. S. of the
sinking Volturno cracked out over the
Atlantic the ensuing circumstances
were notably different from those of
the sinking of the Titanic a year and
a half ago. Ten liners picked up the
Volturno's distress signals and hur
ried in her direction. The Carmania,
La Touraine, Minneapolis, Rappahan
nock, Czar, Narragansett, Grosser
Furst, Davonia, Kroohland and Seid
litz rushed full speed to the spot where
the vessel went down and picked up
the survivors, who were in lifeboats
and rafts.
Wireless reports from other vessels
of the rescue fleet, transmitted by
Captain Bar'r of the Carmania, agreed
that 521 were rescued, but differed on
the number of those lost, stating the
number variously from 132 to 236 and
323.
The world got first word of the Vol
turno disaster in a wireless message
sent out by the Cunarder Carmania
and picked up by the wireless station
here. The Carmania's first message
was:
"The steamer Volturno, bound from
Rotterdam for Halifax and New York,
with 600 emigrants on board, on fire
and abandoned Friday night in lati
tude 48.25 north, longitude 34.33 west
—236 passengers missing."
A fouled propeller is said to have
caused the fire aboard the Volturno.
Quickly the liner was ablaze from
stem to stern. So rapidly did the fire
spread that many of the steerage pas
sengers were burned in their quarters.
Captains of the rescue ships said some
of them got to the Volturno before she
went down.

MOTHER HELD FOR MURDER
Poison Found in Stomach of Leckwold
Child—Uncle of Woman Kills
Self Because of Tragedy.
Arsenic was discovered in the vis
cera of Viola Leckwold, the Minneap
olis girl murdered by her mother, ac
cording to the confession of Mrs. Ida
Leckwold. Simultaneously with this
announcement from the University of
Minnesota came the identiflcation of
a dead man found in a North Minne
apolis field as John Michaud, .uncle of
Mrs. Leckwold, who, of all her rela
tives, was closest to the woman. He
had committed suicide by drinking
carbolic acid.
First degree murder was at once
charged against Mrs. Leckwold by
the police after the report from the
university showing strong traces of
the poison in the dead girl's viscera.
Mrs. Leckwold was arraigned on a
murder charge as soon as the com
plaint was finished in the county at
torney's office. She was unable to go
into the courtroom unassisted and was
half carried by the police matron on
one side and Richard Lambrecht on
the other.
When the court clerk started read
ing the charge she shook violently and
moaned. When the specific date of
her act was reached she collapsed and
was carried from the room by court
officers.
Michael Brady has been retained by
her family as her attorney. He asked
that she be given a preliminary exam
ination later.
The police are inclined to believa
that the suicide of Michaud is the di
rect outgrowth of the crime charged
to Mrs. Leckwold, but in nowise con
nected with it. Ever since the noto
riety of his niece's arrest Michaud
has brooded.

Best-Hated of Farm Tasks
Mexico City, Oct. 11.—One hundred
and ten members of the chamber of
deputies, who had signed resolutions
of warning to President Huerta as the
result of the disappearance of Dr.
Belisaro Dominguez, senator for Chi
pas, were arrested and. lodged in the
penitentiary.
Five other deputies who signed the
resolution were absent when a cordon
of troops was thrown about the legis
lative building and several hundred
soldiers invaded the chamber.
The arrests followed a demand by
President Huerta that the chamber
withdraw the resolution, which carried
the threat that the deputies would
abandon the capitol owing to an al
leged lack of guarantees for their per
sonal safety.
Senator Dominguez early in the
month made a speech in the senate
violently, attacking Huerta," saying
that not only had nothing been done
during Huerta's regime toward the
pacification of the country, but that
the present situation in the republic
was infinitely worse than before.
Declared Famine Threatened.
He said the currency of Mexico had
depreciated, fields had been neglected
and towns razed and that famine
threatened. He added that the situa
tion was due first and foremost to the
fact that the Mexican people could
not resign themselves to be governed
by Huerta.
Before the hour for the regular open
ing of the session of the chamber the
basement and roof of the building had
been packed with troops. Scores of
police were scattered through the gal
leries.
When the deputies were in, their
places Minister of the Interior Manuel
Garz Aldape entered the chamber.
N the spreaderless farm the thought
of the great heaps of manure piling'
up constantly in barnyards, stables,
and stalls, is a gloomy one. Those
piles mean much disagreeable and
hard work. It must all be loaded on high
wagons. It must be raked off in piles in the
fields. Then every forkful must be shaken
apart and spread.
Compare thatold-fashionedmethod with the
I spreader way. You pitch the manure
into the spreader box, only waist high, drive
out and—the machine does all the rest. And
it spreads evenly and far less wastefully.
I Manure Spreaders
are farm necessities. The man who uses one
will get the price of it back in increased crops
before its newness hasworn off.
Every detail and feature counts. They do
best work always and stand every strain for
years. They are made in all styles and sizes,
for small farms and large, low and high ma
chines, frames of braced and trussed steel.
Uphill or down, or on the level, the apron
drive assures even spreading, and the covering
of corners is assured by rear axle differentials,
in all styles the rear axle is placed so that it
carries near three-fourths of the load. This,
with the wide-rimmed wheels with Z-shaped
lugs, makes for plenty of tractive po\ er.
Winding of the beater is prevented by large
diameter and the beater teeth are long, strong
and chisel pointed.

Simultaneously several hundred fed

chamber. Senor Aldape ascended the
platform and read the reply of Presi
dent Huerta to the resolution warning
him of the deputies' intention to dis
solve the parliament and hold their
sessions elsewhere and demanding an
investigation of the disappearance of
Senator Dominguez.
Act of Unjustified Aggression.
The reply said that President Huer
ta could do no less than consider-the
resolution an act of unjustified ag
gression and transgression of the
rights of the other two powers—the
executive and the courts.
When the arrests were made a few
of the leaders were placed in automo
biles, while the other deputies were
taken to the penitentiary in street
cars.
Meanwhile similar demands to re
cant had been made upon members of
the senate, who had concurred in the
chamber's resolution.
A committee of senators called on
President Huerta and signified their
willingness to comply with his de
mands. Later the senators formally
withdrew this action.
In anticipation of trouble heavy pa
trols of troops are on the streets.
