Duchesne, DICTATORS M URDER LAID TO BAND OF S ECRET FOES Senator Huey P. Long, Louisianas political "dictator," was shot through the right side, Sunday night in the state capitol at Baton Rouge with a pistol in the hand3 of Dr. C. A. Weiss, an eye specialist of Baton Rouge, and a member of an political family. Long had just finished directing passage of bills in one of his special legislative sessions, where legislators followed his bidding without question. As he stepped out of the house door, spectators said Dr. Weiss walked up to Long and pressing the muzzle of a pistol close to his body, fired one shot. who are said to Bodyguards, the Senator have accompanied whenever he appeared In public, immediately opened fire, killing Dr. Weis3 and leaving his body on the floor of the corridor. Senator Long was rushed to a hospital where blood transfusion was resorted to in an effort to save his life. The attempt was futile, however, and he died early anti-Lon- g bullet-ridde- n Wednesday. Police Investigate While the most powerful survivors of Huey Long were weeping for him and fighting one another to succeed him, every police and investigating body in the state were checking an amazing the death of the senator and dictator." Opponents of Longs machine made known that a battle would be waged to wrest control of the state while Gov. O.'K. Allen, titular head, of the Long forces, pledg- ed himself to carry on the principle of his boyhood friend and We political ally. He declare will carry on," but whether he would be able to do It with anything like the success of Senator Long was a question in the minds of friends and foes alike. Huey P. Longs body lay in state in the rotunda of the state house he built as gov-eno- r, from one p. m. unil four p. m., Thursday. High and low walked slowly past the bier as hundred filed into the rotund of the towering building to pay honor to the dead political leader dressed in a tux33-sto- ry edo.

They formed, so the story goes, a secret "jury of death" and sentenced Long to death unanimously and then drew lots to see who should be the assassin. The lot fell to the moody little doctor, who knew that it meant his own life as well.

Wealth Unknown Whether Long was a man of wealth or whether he had spent the money he made was speculated on, but there was no one to answer. A week ago he made the statement he was "lousy" with money, later modifying it by saying he spent it freely for his "boys" at Louisiana State and for political work. Some persons guessed he had as much as $5,000,000. The more conservative said $2,500,000, but there were few official sources from which to check his income.
