He had a sinking spell this afternoon, but rallied and for a- time was thought to be much Im proved. A second sinking spell tonight ended with death. For a quarter of a century James R. Mann, or Jim." as he was known on both sides of the House, had been a dominating figure 4n the House.

Nov. 30. Georges Clemenreau observed Thanksgiving Isy hy visiting the home of Uncoln and laying a wrath upon his grave, and outside the tomb he spoke with great emotion of the spirit of the man he came to honor. "After such moving and spproprlste I could not say more." Clemen-cesu said when he had been Introduced by former Senator 1 T. Sherman.

A long ago. while a young student In Paris. I felt hurt when news csme that Uncoln was murdered. There were big manifestations of grief. Do not think that I come here after so many others to consecrate such memory.

To consecrate my thoughts and feeling that Is why I csme here, I remember. Gettysburg where he said the most wondrrful things. He said we do not come here to consecrate this hallowed ground, but to make'our actions worthy of their lives. As a young man I battled in Franco for'Htje same cause for which Lincoln gave hisMlfe.

I am an old man. knowing that I have but a short time of life left, but I hope I to bring from here new strength, new powers and new feeling that shall carry me through to the end.

Clemen-ceau's indignation was shared by a number of Springfield who said that never before had pictures been taken In such a manner at the tomb and that they were at a loss to understand how the committee upon arrangements had permitted such a thing.

Norkln then killed Mrs. Becker and announced that he considered his account against Becker to be satisfied. After that the two men were friendly. Norkln Accuses Husband. In his cell several days ago Becker tried to smuggle out appeals to Norkln for aid.

The District Attorney said that although admitting that he had furnished the burial ground and the shovel. Norkln insisted that he had no part in committing the crime or' In hiding the body, and that the reason he gave for his silence paralleled Becker's reason. I thought he would kill me if I did not keep still." he said, I don't know what good it would ha.ve done for me to talk." It was eleven months ago. Just about Christmas time, that Becker flirt announced that he was going to kill his wife, according to Norkln. I' did not think he I waa in earnest at the time." said Norkln, and pala no attention to him." I Becker repeated the thrent against his wife several times in i later conversation.

Norkln said, but thought it was all talk." In April he asked me to lend him a shovel, and 1 let him have one." said Norkln. Wht did" he say helwnnted It for?" asked District Attorney Glennon.

ACCUSE EACH OTHER PRESIDENT MOVES TO BLOCK RADICALS I With' Wallace and Old Guard Leaders, He Frames Program for Relief of FarnjersJ BiTTER FIGHT IN PROSPECT La Follette Croup Purposes to" Attack 'All of Hardins's 5 Policies in Congress. WILL BEGIN, WITH SUBSIDY Intends to Fore Its Owl Cane ldldaU on Republicans In 1924 or Form Third Party. Special to The yew Tork Times.

WASHINGTON. SO. PresldeM Harding and the conservative Republi, can leaders will be brought Into a. long and bitter struggle with the radical and progressive forces In the regular aessloa of Congress beginning Monday, jn the opinion of observers who havej been -r watching the movements of Senator Lev Follette and his group promoting the progressives' conference. That the fixed policy of the dominant, leaders In the movement Is a protest against the Harding Administration and the Old Guard, with the purpose of d.e-' feating the renomlnatlon of President Harding in and creating a condition favorable to the nomination of a progressive by the Republican convention, is the ponclusion of the Old Guars.

the struggle that will he made in the jSenate over the Fhlp Subsidy bill and the ex tended credits for farmers will have as Its ultimate purpose' the stirring! up of further opposition to the old leaders and the arousing of tbe country, against' the renomlnatlon of Mr. Harding) Advisers of the President foresaw auch a move In (the early days- following the-recent elections. Accordingly, Mr' Hard--Ing announced that he would advocate legislation to give longer credita to farmers- This is not the only aivcalled: progressive bill that win have the Administration's support In the hope of-, satisfying some of the urgent needs of the -The Administration It is declared, will go as far as possible' In tspotislng measures looking tot more liberal treatment of the farmers, but. whatever It does, there will be Bo sur--render to the radicals. I In the face ('of the coming Radical -Progressive conference tbe Secretary Wallace and a dosen Re pub- -Mean Senators met at the White: House today and agreed upon a program of legislation for the relief of farmers.

This will be urged for the earliest consideration by Congress and th Admin-J Istration will back It to the limit. Some reforms in the railroad law, such as in the Labor -Board provisions, will be urged by the President In his message to Congress, but It Is said he 4 will not recommend any changes; In the-Esch-Cummlns law looking to a repeal of the guarantee of fair returnj which is demanded by the Urn. Follette group, Repoblteaa Division Predicted. The coming months are going to place-the Republican Party In two widely differing camps, which may reeult ia such a division as to be conductive t( the formation of a third party: Presl- dent Harding, his friends sayj mvit take the leadership of Congress as he. Is now doing In the case of the Subsidy-bill, and.

ao direct the course jof his; party as to win the approval jof the masses and prevent the radicals Jbecom-'. Ing; stronger. There is coin; to be a real test between the radical and coo-; servatlve forces, similar to the' move-; ment In 1911. The progressive leaders' are hopeful that the old leaders 'cannot win back public esteem, and that 1924 will see the Republicans ready jto give control to the progressives on peaalty of a new party. In the conferences of radicals and pro-.

gresslves to be held here tomorrow and Saturday, representing leaders jin and out of Congress, will be formulated the program for the progressives jin regular session of Congress and jfor the next two years. This conference whtcit will be mainly under the direction and-InspIraUon of Senator La Follette. will also consider plans for acUon by the Legislatures. Farseelng politicians who watched the rise and fall of the Progressive Party in' 1911 and the years following see in the present movement art agita- tln which, falling In Us legislative efforts, will try to bring a new party Into existence In x1924. While the leaders disclaim any such purpose, the program they will promote and the groups that will be assembled in the conference are thought Indicative of the development of a political condition forecasting a break with the established political 1, order.

Foresee a Liberal Party. That the result of the conferences' will In the end lead to an attempt to control the Republican Party orjthe formation of a new political alignment is" apparent. Some who are engaged la the movement predict that events may dictate the bringing together of the dis satisfied Democrats and Republicans'" and the large body of voters jprotest ing against prohibition Into ja new' party, to be known as the Liberal, and that all those who. are opposed Democrats and Republicans, will be forced into a conservative party. But such a development does not appear probable, es many of the wets are conservative in -other lines and would hesitate jto leave -their political associations to Obtain a modification of the Volstead fcnforce-v-ment act.
