GRAVE SIGNIFICANCE.
SHOOTING OF HUEY LONG. Received September 10, 1.30 p.m. NEW YORK, Sept. 9. With fairly reliable reports that Senator Huey Long had taken a turn for the worse this morning, the attempted assassination of the dictator of Louisiana began to assume a more grave political significance. The father-in-law of Weiss (the would-be assassin), Judge Pavy, today said: “I am certain that Ins intensive study of the Louisiana political situation had convinced him that the form of Government of the State under Senator Long’s dictatorship was so terrible and such a miscarriage of justice that his broodings had finally unbalanced his mind.”
