SHE DOESN’T RECOLLECT
TRYING TO END HER LIFE
By Private* !a*na«l Wire.
Washington, Sept. 6.—Mr*. Dorothy
L. Williams, formerly of Augusta, Go.,
not Ijuvrencevllle, as previously stat
ed, did attempt suicide, her husband
admits today. |
When a short distance from the home
of her father, Berry Benson, at 341
Bryant street, N. W., a private detect
ive eaya he saw Mrs. Williams acting
in a strange manner. When he ap
proached her, he said he knocked a
two-ounce battle, containing carbolic
acid, from her hands. This story was
denied by Mr. Williams, who asserted
that a man had attacked his wife and
had thrown the acid in her face. Af
ter a long talk With his wife yester
day, Mr. Williams says the odicer told
the truth.
Mrs. Williams denies having any re
membrance of the occurrence, and says
her mind is even a blank concerning
the place where she secured the car*
bolic add.
Mr. Williams, who has not lived with
his wife for the last three months,
says that shs has been suffering from
severe nervous troubles that havs at
times rendered her irresponsible. He
denies that his wife made threats to
take her own life.
Williams says he was but 16 years
old when he married Miss Benson
about toil'years ago, and that she was
but 17 years old. They have three
children.
All day yesterday Mr. Williams sat
by his wife’s bedside and comforted
her.

to be back home with 'em again.
While globe girdling he said he had
learned that the Arabs had 600 words
In their language that meant camel.
Since returning to tho United
States,” he continued, ”1 only wish that
the American language contained as
many words meaning 'I thank you.' ”
After telling his hearers that the
happiest part of his long Journey had
been the home coming, he described
somo of the places he had visited In
the old world.

who also went to New York.
“Greet Scottl’’ Says Bryan
“Great Scott! what a crowd I" ex

Along the route Mr. Bryan was re
ceived with every evidence of cor
diality anil enthusiasm.
Greeting to Neighbors.
Mayor Brown made a brief speech
of welcome at the open air meeting at
the capitol last night. In which he said:
“Before Introducing Governor Mick
ey, who will extend the greetings of
the state, Mr. Bryan, I, as mayor, wel
come you home; not as a statesman,
not ns a Democrat, but as that dear
est to us ail, our beloved neighbor."
Governor Mickey said:
"We are glad, Mr. Bryan, that you
have a home In our midst. We are
glad that you are an illustrloua exam
ple of what tho head of an American
home should be.. We are glad that
Providence has spared the life nnd
health of yourself nnd family in your
arduous travels and that we can once
more look Into your face and listen
to tho greetings of your kindly voice.
Not only tho city of Lincoln, but the
entire commonwealth shares In. the fe
licity of this occasion and extends to
vou a cordial, sincere welcome back to
your own. You have brought unstint
ed honor to us. You have given fame
to your city and state in distant lands,

Washington, Sept. 6.—Senator John
W. Daniel, of Virginia, the man who
led the Bryan forces successfully
against David B. Hill In the Chicago
convention of 1608, Is In Washington.
When his attention was called to Mr.
Bryan's statement that he had not seen
the name of any Southern Democrat
who disapproved of his government
ownership views. Senator Daniel said:
"I heard every word of Jhe powerful
speech and agreed to 90 per cent of It.
I regretted the declaration In favor of
government ownership of trunk line
railways and state ownership of state
lines. Our experience In Virginia In
the matter of state participation was
so disastrous and so burdensome to our
tax-payers that we have just emerged
from the financial troubles brought
upon us, and our constitution, by gt
eral assent, has a clause which forbl
county or state subscriptions to rail
road building.
"What may come to pass In the fu
ture no man may now i#;ad, but I do
not believe the people of this' country,
nor the Democratic party, favor the
government ownership of railroads. The
Democratic party must get together If
It expects to lead the country, and
there Is abundance of room, In the con
current opinion nt all Democrats for n
broad and deep basis upon which suc
cess can be attained. On all new Ideals
and In all untried schemes we should
go slowly and not attempt to make
them the creeds of a party's faith un
til they have first demonstrated them
selves really for the public iood.
“Our people South have Just gotten
through a revolutionary epoch, nnd are
settled In that serenity of mind from
which naturally flows the best togtta
turbulent and some times complicated
condition*. Their mood inspires cau
tion, prudence and deliberation, anil
conjures against hasty opinions or ac
tion.
"Imperial governments can better
handle such government ownership
schemes than a republic, and such a
scheme might succeed In u compact
empire when It would fall In a republic,
anil especially In so vast nnd widely
diversified a republic ns pur own."
