t HOW DID HEME? k Railroad President Shot to Detth Mysteriously in His Home. SUICIDE OR MURDER Family Claim Burglar Did Shooting.?Possible Fraud lmplicatioi and Fear of Disgrace Advanced as Theory for Suicide.?Demi Man's Associates Not Surprised. Ira G. Rawn, president of the Chicago. Indianapolis and L,ouisvilIe Railroad (the Monoa Route,) died of a bullet wound, at his summer residence in Winnetka. fifteen miles north of Chicago, early Wednesday morning. Members of Mr. Rawn's family say he was killed by a burglar. The police are working on a theory that Mr. Rawn killed himself. As a basis of their suicide theory, the police advance the following reasons: They point to the fact that Mr. Rawn was operating vice president of the Illinois Central Railroad at the time fraudulent car repair contracts were put through and that recently he was drawn into the Illinois Central graft investigation as a chief witness. They sow that the action of Mr. Rawn's relatives in refusing to aid the Chicago detective department to search for the alleged murderer is suspicious. They declare that there exists a lack of convincing evidence that an intruder hurt nctnnllv been in the Rawt? residence. Mrs. Kauri, wife of the dead man; R. I*. Ooburn, his son-in-law; Mrs. Coburn and two children, and three maids were in the houso when the tragedy occurred. Mrs. Kawn says that her husband was aroused from sleep at half past one o'clock in the morning by a noise on the first floor of the residence. She says Mr. Rawn picked up a revolver in his room on the second floor and started down-stairs and was down in the hall when two shots were fired. A minutes search of the front hall and adjoining rooms of the residence, however, show but one bullet, that fired from the revolver of Mr. Rawn and which ap- ( parently had passed through Mr. Rawn'ti body just below the heart. Coroner Peter Hoffman took personal charge of the investigation into the death. He refused to say whether he thought the case was one of murder or suicide. He stated, h?wover, that powder marks had been found on Mr. Rown's night J gown, indicating that the bullet which killed Mr. Hawn was fired at 1 close range. Friends and business associates of ' the deud man say that he has been ' looking badly for several weeks ' Some attributed Mr. Rawn's worrio.1 1 expression to the investigation of the ' conspiracy by which the Illinois- ' Central claims it was mulched out ? of hundreds of thousands of dollars. * This is now going on In court. 1 On two successive days last week I Mr. Rawn begged for and secured a I postponement of his examination as f a witness on the plea that his wife ? was ill. His examination was scheduled to he takeu up again next Tuesday. Mr. Rawr left the Illinois Central Rullroad in November, 1909, and became president of the Monon. Earlj this Spring the Illinois Central fraud came to light. Though the investigation is not in such shape that any criminal responsibility for the frauds is fixed, it is declared that the reputation of Bonie persons involved hA rnlno.1 nfiM flmlr I'ntitm ?^ I ( practically blotted out. At the first hearing before Master ' ( in Chancery Thomas J. Taylor, Jr., t Mr. Rawn testified that the car re- t pair contracts all came under his < supervision. Ilo admitted that he ( was responsible for farming out the ? cars to the various repair commit- f tees. I 20c Cotton Says Hudson. Twenty cent cotton this fall \as ' predicted Tuesday by State Commissioner of Agriculture Thos. G. Hudson, who addressed the Farmer's Union at Union City. Ga.

From a Sixty Pep Cent. llnsiH to a v Pi?f (Vn* ltn^iu Itv liter \lia_ . jority. As its meeting in Columbia on Wednesday the State board of equalization decided by a vote to 33 to 8 to assess cotton mills, cotton oil mills; and fertilizer plants on a fifty per; cent, basis, instead of 60 per cent as formerly. This action was taken upon motion of Mr. John Shuler. of Orangeburg, following the argument earlier in the day of Mr. F. Helton Grier, and several speeches in the afternoon on the matter. There was a proposition to make the assessment on a 40 per cent, basis, but this was I withdrawn as was the proposition to J assess the corporations on the samej basis as heretofore with the under- [ standing that on improvements the basis should be 50 per cent. Mr. Grier represented the cotton' mills of the State, through the Asso- j elation, which the mills are n i fully ; satisfied with the 50 per cent basis, | it is realized that this was the best' that could be had. Tho most vigorous argument I against the action taken by the board ! was that of Mr. Jeremiah Smith. ! of Horry, who said that the coastal | lands are assessed enough now; that there is much real estate that is valueless to the farmer on account of swamp lands and other property that does not produce anything, and that the farmer is now bearing sufficient taxes. Mr. Smith, who made a proposition at a former meeting that 100 per cent be the basis and over whose protest he 60 per cent basis was adopted, declaring that although tJie land v 'lues have been Increased the same h s not been true of the property i:i! 'er discussion. He made an impassioned plea that the motion of 60 per cent basis be killed. The vote on the Shuler motion resulted. Yeas?Ijomax. Courtney, Clinkscales, Johnson, Verdier, Turner.

Joseph G. Cannot, will not take himself out of the race for the Speakership, of the next House of Hepresentatives. This he made plain near the conclusion of his speech at fimporia, Kan., Monday afternoon. He said he would abide by the will j jf the Republican caucus if the Re- ' publicans control the next Congress. | jut that no "muckraking magazine" j ould make him say he would not he | i candidate. In other words, he ! aid, he would not make an effort to vin the Speakership; yet the emthasis with which he spoke made it >laln that if the Republican caucus should nominate him he would be willing to serve. There Is Much to Learn. From all accounts the average 'armer In this country does not more han half farm his land. That Is. le does not get from the land more han one half of what he would get 1 f the land were properly cultivated, t is said that the yield per acre of wheats, oats and other crops is not >ne half of what the European farm- , ?r gets. Some may say that this is lue to difference of climate and soil. Rut that does not account for it onsidering that in almost any disrict in this land experience shows hat a farm systematically ami tliormchly cultivated will produce often vs ice as much as the adjoining farm. ( The one remedy, apparently, is to set hack to the land, have smaller farms and go in for intensive fuming. This plan is being adopted by many fnriners with profitable remits. Made Fast Tine.

Among Republicans Because They Help the South. The Washington correspondent of The News and Courier says because the population figures of a few of the Southern towns, taken under the rew census, have shown big increases over the figures of 1900, leading men in the Republican party have become thoroughly alarmed, and have begun a movement to keep the representation from the Southern Ftates in the 63d Congress from being increased. Two Places in Virginia I.vnrh. ! burn and Christ ianshurg. have shown big increases and the same it true of two Georgia towns, Fitzgerald and Haw kinsville. In Texas nearly all of the fifteen or twenty counties, which have had their population figures made public, show big gains. The same is true of Oklahoma and Tennessee. It is said that these, being widely scattered, indicate that the general growth all over the South has been large; in fact, much greater than any one expected, and that if the same ratio is kept up representation from that section must of necessity be increased. To forestall such an Increase in membership 't is proposed to begin the downward movement now. KfTorts made to ascertain whether or not President Taft was interested ir the movement faLled to disclose anything tending to show that he was cognizant of it, but it is understood that Congressman Dennett, of Few York, and others, who are leading in the proposed cut. made him acquainted with their plans before 1 e went to Beverly. That the movement is on in earnest is r.ot denied SKXATOIt TIMi.MAN DKCIJN'ES. limbic U, Accept the Invitation at the Present.

HAVE NARROW ESCAPE. Family .7list Vacated Porch Wheu Lightning Struck. A peculiar freak of lightning is reported from Belvedere, in Aiken ( county. At the home of Walter liar- i ris. a well-known citizen at that i place, the family were sitting on the I front porch, when a sniail thundei i ' storm came up. As the storm ap- 1 proae.hed, the family got up from 1 1 the porch and went into the house Just as they were closing the door ' the lightning struck a tree in the front yard. The bolt ran from the ' tret* to the porch, and knocked over the chairs, which had been vacated 1 only a moment before. Had the lighting been a niomeut earlier, they would have been struck.

SKELETONS ARE FOUND The Honrs of a Man of Huge Stature Discovered in Oue of Several Collins that Were Found.?In Another l'laee Several Old Cunnon ltalls Were Dug l'p. No one would suppose that there was nine.* i." mystery or any tinge of romance i:i the work of the hardv ditch-diggers who are laying the sewerage pries in various streets in the city of Charleston, says the News and Courier, but mystery and romance have a way of turning up where they are least expecte-l, and only the other day one of the gangs ran into something that made the negroes who wield the pick and shovel feel nervous and apprehensive of what mi'zht follow as the result of Interfering with the long sleep of those who had passed from earth many years ago. The News and Courier then goes on to relate the following: On Queen street, between Franklin and Logan, just opposite the Medical College, the pickmen found a grave yard about four feet beneath the surface, r.nd being compelled to stick to their work, for the sewer pipes must be laid, grave yard or no grave yard, and in spite of the danger of rousing the wrath of ghosts, they unearthed before long seven coffins. All these were badly decayed and fell apart as soon as an attempt was made to lift them to the surface. Of the bodies that they had once contained only the skeletons were left, and these quickly decomposed on coming in contact with the air. Several Of the skeletons were t.hnne of children or -iiu'i; women, bu* there was one especially that filled the laborers with wonder as they looked upon it. It was the skeleton of a man, and such a man! More than six feet four inches tall, with shoulders of wonderful breadth and big bones that made up a frame of remarkable strength, iie must have been well-nigh a giant. The negroes looked at the white bones and wondered; and white men who saw the crumbling vestiges of what must have been ane of the finest specimens of physical manhood in the South, were curious to know whether some record of this Hercules who had been laid to rest in this forgotten cemetery long ago, might not be found somewhere and the history of the man brought back to mind. On Ashe street the diggers came across cannon balls t.hat had evidenta.!ly beeu fired during the Revolutionary war. They were of a kind unknown during t.he War Between the States, and were evidently much more ancient, each of thenweighing not more than four or five founds. In addition to these several smaller grape-shot were unearthed IHtl tJ t SKI) ri?ON (Hit I*. lly An I nknowii Intruder Into lie* | llouve at Night. runny .way Hryor, the fourteenrear-oWl daughter of Owen \V.
