INSANITY MAY BE OFFERED IN DEFENSE OF CRUTCHFIELD His Friends That He Crazy. Declare Was Whether Mr*. Sallle Crutchfield re covers or whether she die*, it I* gen erally believed that her husband, J. H. Crutchfield, accused ot shooting her add then beating her In the head with the butt end of a shotgun, will plead In anity as his defense. Mrs. Crutchfield, the wounded wife. Is still lingering between life and death st the Grady hospital, the outcome of her wounds, a matter of doubt. It tras announced Monday morning that she appeared slightly better, but that her condition Is still critical. It Is be lieved now that she has some slight chance of recovery. It Is stated that Mrs. Crutchfield has reacted fairly well from the shock of the operation Saturday afternoon, at which time her right leg was ampu tated just above the knee. She was shot in both legs, but It Is thought the left leg will be saved. Friends of Crutchfield Insist that he Is crazy on the subject of Ills wife, and arc confident a plea of homicidal or emotional Insanity will be made at the trial. The prisoner has not Inti mated what his defense would be. fur ther than his assertion that the shoot ing and beating of his wife was purely accidental. Detectives' Theory. City detectives who have been In vestigating the case are inclined to the belief that Crutchfield is afflicted with a definite form of Insanity. The officers put no credence what ever In the story of Crutchfield that the shooting was an accident, declaring they believe he laid In wait for Ills wife In front of her home and deliber ately shot her. after which he beat her In the head with the butt end of the weapon. ■ A friend of Crutchfield, in speaking of the case Monday morning, said:' "I am confident Crutchfield is crazy, and I think Insanity the most plausible defense he can offer. He was simply Insanely Jealous when he shot his wife, and I am satisfied had no control over himself. A plea of Insanity, 1 be lieve, would certainly place him In the asylum. His close friends know he Is crazy about his wife.” Crutchfield has had a conference with Attorney Reuben R. Arnold, in regard to obtaining his services In de fending him, but no definite arrange ments have yet been made. Mr. Ar- . mid-stated Monday'he was unable to ■ay as yet whether he will defend the prisoner. Turns to Prayer. When Informed Saturday afternoon that her right leg would have to be am putated, Mrs. Crutchfield realised the seriousness of her condition and that the operation might cost her life, and her thoughts turned to her spiritual welfare. She requested that Dr. TV. TV. Lan drum, pastor of the First Baptist church, come to her bedside and asked Hint the operation be delayed until he could get there. Dr. Landrum was no tified and Immediately went to the hos. pltnl. He went directly to the room of the wounded womnn and talked with her for some time of spiritual matters. After this he prayed for her. A few minutes later Mr*. Crutchfield was' put under the Influence of an anesthetic In the operating room and her right leg taken off Just above the knee, LIST OF THE DEAD ' IN TROLLEY WRECK Atlantic City, N. J..

BACHELOR SHOT BY WALTON AT BELAIR 9p"'lsl to The CeorgUn. Augusta, Oa., Oct. 2».—W. A. Bach- fjj’r. who for a number of year* ha* wen a resident of Belalr, and who was or 30 years ago pronounced one of ’"e most daring duelists In the state, *a» shot and killed yesterday evening *' « O'clock by W. T. Walton, a young '"an at Belalr, n . t'achelor had been a resident of ' lair for half a century, and up to a years sgo he was considered a '*ry reckless man. He had reformed. however, and was living a quiet peace ful life at the time of the tragedy. Walton came to Augusta last night and surrendered to the officer*. He killed Mr. Batchelor In the depot at Belalr, and says that It was self-de fense. He said that Mr. Bachelor was pursuing him with a pistol. Captain Bachelor was a veteran o the civil war and was well known In Augusta and this vicinity. Walton, who lived at Harlan, had accompanied his wife to Belalr to visit relatives. New York, Oct. 28.—A great mystery surrounds a visit made today by How ell Van Blalson, of Pittsburg, Pa., to Harry K. Thaw In the Tombs. Mr. Van Blalson took an active part In a conference held In front of the prison er's cell by Mr*. William Thaw, his mother, and Evelyn Nesblt Thaw, hi* wife. Great precautions were taken to keep the nature of the conference secret, and at the conclusion all of the partici pants refused to say a word, but hur riedly left the Tombs. court were called Irremediable injus tice from their standpoint, would have been done against candidates and citi zens who liad expressed In their peti tions their desire to vote for them for the offices of assemblymen, senators and congressmen. Judge is in Dotibt. ''It Is a fact," said Judge Cullen, “that the decision of the appellate di vision leave* me In doubt on what grounds the decision was granted, whether It was because ot a lack ot signatures on the multiple petitions or whether it was because of conditions Into which the petitions had fallen. I am fully alive to the necessities of prompt action if It should appear to morrow that there are sufficient legal reason* for my entertaining an ap peal." During the controversy Mr. Gilbert, attorney for the Republicans, said air ily: "Oh, well, it doe* not matter wheth er these men run or not." "That Is an appropriate remark com ing from a man who was a former partner of Atiorney General Mayer,” rejoined Mr. Shearn. Atlantic City. X. J., Oct. 29.— This afternoon’s latest estimate of the number of persons dead in the electric train on the Pennsyl vania that plunged into the Thor oughfare, is put at 80. The num ber has steadily .grown all day and at this hour 57 bodies have already been taken out. Among those now believed to be dead is Prank Iline, driver for the Adams Express Company. lie had arranged to take that train. Brown McBaird, head porter at the Marlborough-Blenheim, was seen running for the train on its departure, and has not been heard from since. He, too, is dead. Professional divers, hired by the railroad, as well as scores of vol unteers, began work on the sub merged cars at dawn today and kept at the work of recovery of the dead hour by hour. Held tight in a trap, the vic tims, most of whom were women and. children, were drowned in tho cars, submerged in 20 feet of water. , . It was asserted that a few min utes before the arrival of the train the drawbridge had been opened to permit a vessel to go through. Then, when the draw was closed, ;it.i&-al!£ged, the ends of the rails were not brought to a perfect un ion, a protrusion of half ar. inch causing the flange of the car wheels to strike the other rail in' stead of passing over, the jar causing the cars to jump from the track. It is admitted that the signals showed that the bridge was closed and indicated to Motorman Seott that he-had a dear and safe track. District Attorney . Abbott, of Mays Landing, is nt Atlantic City at the instauce of the l’cnnsylva nia officials, investigating the cause of the wreck. “We would like to learn some' thing of the cause of the wreck, said he, “so we can go into details of flxiug responsibility. While the spreading of a rail caused the wreck, it is now hinted that the bridge tender may have been re sponsible by imperfectly locking the draw.” FIFTY-TWO BODIES TAKEN FROM WATER8, Fifty-two bodies have been thue far taken from the waters of the Thor oughfare and It la fully believed that there will be at least 20 others recov ered during the day. The conductor of the Ill-fated train, James Curtis, said today that there were 96 people on board his train ufter It had left Pleos- antvllle. Of these all have been Identi fied but 16. _ Crowds of people are hovering around the edge of the waters looking for their dead relatives or friends be ing taken Into the morgue, where the work of Identification goes on slowly. The scenes at the Improvised morgue In the old Empire theater are heart rending. Women and etrong men break down as they recognize the cold forma of those who were so suddenly plunged from life Into eternity. GUARD RI8K8 HIS LIFE TO SAVE PA8SENGER8. Almost before they had realised their peril, the first two cars dived into the water. The third car hung from the track at the edge of the drawbridge, then jumped In and was submerged. To this fortunate circumstance was due the eecape of most of the sur vivor*. who scrambled out the rear door, held open by a brave guard at the risk of hie own life, or broke through the windows and struggled In the water until they were rescued by boatmen. Forty-four bodies had been recov ered thlB morning, most of them being brought to the surface by divers. Of those In the drat cars, It Is believed that only four men escaped.

He arrived unannounced In the morning from his stump-speaking tour of Indiana and Ohio and departed In the evening for Dee Moines, Iowa. He said he wanted to eee Hearst elected governor of New York. ‘Do you think the election of Hearst would make him a presidential candi date In 1908?” the Nebraskan asked. "Well," he said, "1 believe In fighting one battle at a time. The wisest course Is to dispose of this conlsst first and then go on nnd take up the other one later. The circumstances of one doee not necessarily govern the other." Regarding Sullivan Affair. Mr. Bryan was asked If the Sullivan controversy was to be left In the back, ground, to which It has receded during the last two months. •I don’t know," replied he, wearily. "The principle for which I contend ie that the matter Is still there; It will always live because it Is right, because It Is the truth.

New York, Oct. 29,—A* the last week of the campaign draws near, it be comes more and more apparent. In spite of the rainbow statements that are be ing put out by the Republicans, that Hearst has gained greatly In strength In many counties outside of this city, and that here he Is at least holding his okvn. Apparently he Is directing his energies to capturing the so-called la bor vote, Democratic and Republican, and apparently he Is making a great success, from all reports. A statement last week that a poll of manufacturing plant up the state, which employs nearly 16,000 men. ahowed only 178 for Hughe* was thought to be an error. It was declared the number employed must be 1,500 Instead of 15,000, owing to the small ness of the Hughes vote Indicated. But the figures were correct. G. O. P.. Funds Are Low. Owing to the fact that the law In this state now prohibits corporations front contributing to campaign funds, the Republican campaign chest Is pret ty low. The state committee has no such sums as It used to have before the law passed last winter. Its poverty may reduce the Republican tanner vole tor this year there will be no funds to apeak of to expend on bringing the farmers to the polls. There was a stir In politics here to day when Charles F. Murphy, the lead er of Tammany Hall, announced, through his counsel, James w.

It la alleged, has made 31,000,000 i>y crushing strikes for the "Plundfcr- bund," Is In this city today with a thousand strike-breakers at his call for the purpose of breaking the strike of the chauffeurs, controlled by Thomas F. Ryan and other backers of the "Plunderbund" candidate for governor. Thus the strike of the chauffeur* I* now a political Issue. The 326 striking chauffeurs, while they recokntse the power of Farley, who recently declared he had a list of 85,000 non-union men ready to do his bidding, are undaunted. - Strike Breaker Gets Angry.

The ’ notorious strike-breaker was very- angry whan a reporter smoked him'out and asked him, his plans In regard to the chauffeur strike.

After resting Sunday as the guest of John E. Hedges, at the Jackson health resort. Mr. Hughes appeared to be in splendid condition, mentally and physically.

Dansvllle Is the early home of Mr. Hedges, Mr. Hughes' campaigning mate. The last of Mr. Hughes' tour was characterised by meetings, which were. In the main, successful. The two meetings which may prop erly be reckoned aa showing the great est degree of Mr. Hughes’ popularity were those-at Cortland, In Cortland county, and at Bdth, In Steuben.
