Washington, April 26.—In response
to Senator Gore's resolution calling on
the President to send the documents
in the case where Ormsby, McHarg
has been employed by the Choctaw
Indians, President Taft has sent to
the senate a voluminous correspond-
ence. it shows among other things
that a contract to pay McHarg, who
has a law office in New York, $12,000
a year and ail expenses when he is
away from Washing;on, has been ap-
proved by the President.

Stree No. or Rural Route
Let the head of every house and the head of every business concern
see that everybody In his place la enumerated. See especially that peo
pie who may not understand the census are counted.
At Omaha the High School students will take a census as a cheek on
the regular enumerators. At Seattle a business men's committee Is having
a census taken. Similar steps have been taken in other cities, the object
of the people in each case being to see that their towns get counted right.
There is no organized movement to this end in Shawnee, therefore, indl
viduals must exert themselve to help the enumerators if the census is to
include all the people.

Kansas City, April 26.—The second
week of the trial of Dr. B. C. Hyde for
the murder of Thomas II. Swope has
begun, and not until now did a mem-
ber of the Swope family testify. The
llrst part of the story from the lips of
one of the persons whom the state
says Dr. Hyde tried to poison was told
by Mi
ntes before the noon adjournment.
Miss Swope Frightened.
Miss Swope was evidently very much
frightened. Although urged several
times by Judge and counsel to speak
more loudly she continued in a voice
so low and at times so shaken that few
persons ten feet away could distin-
guish her words.
In the few minutes that elapsed be
tween the time Miss Margaret went to
the stand and the luncheon hour, tho
witness told nothing of importanc
She was questioned by Henry Jost, as-
sistant prosecuting attorney. Miss
Margaret was arrayed in a close-fitting
black suit. She was pale until the
many objections and rulings and the
requests that she speak more plainly
brought a flush to her cheeks. As a
result of the typhoid wnich which she
suffered, her hair was short, reaching
hardly to her collar.
Testing Nurse's Memory.
Miss Anna Houlehan, nurse, who had
not finished her testimony Saturday at
adjournment, was recalled. The most
important point in the cross-examina-
tion of Miss Houlehan was her admis-
sion that Miss Margaret Swope always
had been extremely sensitive to the
action of the hypodermic needle and
that it made her arm sore.
This was developed by the defense
to off-set the state's assertion that
Dr. Hyde gave Miss Swope something
in a hypodermic injection that made
her arm very sore and caused it to
swell and remain sore.
Mr. Walsh's examination of this wit-
ness at great length was to test her
memory as to things she has hereto-
fore described and afterward changed
in one way or another, according to the
record. It was a very hard test, though,
and one in which many persons might
fall.
Longer Sessions of Court.
Court will hold longer sessions here-
after. it will open at o'clock, ad-
journ for luncheon at noon, reconvene
at 1:30 o'clock instead of 2 o'clock and
continue in session until G o'clock.
Judge Latshaw announced from the
bench that to expedite the trial in
every possible way he might hold ni«ht
sessions. This will be decided as oc-
casion demands.
State Has Twyman's Notes.
A fear that death might follow the
operation which his physician had pro-
nounced necessary, prompted Dr.
George T. Twyman. before being taken
to the University hospital, where he
died, to write out a complete memo-
randa of the peculiar happenings, clr-
umstances and Incidents he noticed
on his almost dally calls in the Swopr
home as their family physician.
This memoranda and notes, it was
revealed, had been given to VTirgil
Conkling. county prosecutor, and are
now in his possession. It is, pernaps,
the most detailed and complete record
in existence of the remarkable chain
of evidence that led up to the formal
accusation of murder against Dr. B. C.
Hyde.
A BIG BLAZE AT KEARNEY, M0
Nine Frame Buildings Destroyed When
a Fire Started from a De-
fective Flue.
Kearney, Mo., April 26.—A tire at ti
o'clock in the morning that started
from a defective flue, destroyed nine
frame buildings on tne south side ol
the principal street of the town wt st
of the Kearney bank. The bank build
ing was saved by the volunteer lire de-
partment The loss is estimated at
about $10,000. One of the frame build
ings was two stories high and the
others were one story.
DROPPED ANOTHER LAND CASE
Attorney General Wickersham Dis
misses Suits Against Three
Milwaukee Men.
Milwaukee, April 26.—Suits for al
leged conspiracy to defraud the gov
eminent against J. M. Pereles, T. J
Pereles and H. M. Benjamin, prom in
ent Milwaukee men, in connection
with the incorporation of the Wiscon
sin Coal company to operate coal landi
In Colorado, have been dismissed by
order of Attorney General Wicker

by the United States district attorney

Valentine added: "The department
of Justice, aided by the legal I ne «>t
this department, is fully able to r pre
sent and guard the interests o. ;   In
dians, both tribal and indiv ■
only cases in which gjv. f
cials may not properly act i * -n
are those in which the Unite . ;; -
Is a party in interest adverse to a
Indian or a tribe. At this time ther
is but one such case pending, so far
as kuown to this office, affecting the
Choctaws or Chickasaws and that is
to determine the proportion of $800,-
000 allowed on account of allotment to
the freedmen, which shall be distribut-
ed to each nation."
These Indians, who seem to be very
free about hiring lawyers whether they
need them or not, are said to have a
contract with Mansfield, McMurray &
Cornish to sell their asphalt and coal
lands for 10 per cent of the money de-
rived from such sale and this contract
is said to be before the President for
approval. The lands are worth from
$40,000,000 to $100,000,000, so the fee
would be $4,000,000 to $10,000,000 if the
contract is carried out, but the sale
cannot be made without legislation by
congress. McHarg was formerly in
the government legal department and
later served under Charles Nagel in
the department of commerce and labor.
He was an assistant to Frank H. Hitch-
cock in the gathering of delegates be-
fore the last national convention.

MAY GET ONE FOURTH OF CROP AveUa, Pa Aprll26-GeorgeRabish
a mine official of the Pittsburg and
- • Washington Coal company, was
I dragged from his bed and crucified.
Greatest Damage Reported From Iowa, He was in a dying condition when
Illinois, Indiana and Ohio—Total taken down from the cross by a detail
of police from Washington, Pa. Death
came in a little while after the man
was taken to a hospital.
As Rabish was leaving the mines he
was attacked by a crowd of angry for-
engners and dragged to the edge of
town, where he was beaten and
stoned. He was rescued by Superin-
tendent C. E. Neiser. Four Slavish
miners were arrested for the attack
and fined each $100. This further
angered the miners. All night the for-
eigners discussed the matter, liquor in-
flaming their council. It was asserted
by the men that Rabish was a spy for
the company.
Just before daylight the foreigners
acted. Rabish was dragged from his
bed and taken to the scene of the as-
sault of the day before. A crown of
thorns was brought and placed upon
his head, the wreath being forced
down till the thorns entered the flesh.
A large hole was then dug in the
ground and an improvised cross of
mine timbers was made. Securing
ropes, the mob hauled the man up on
the cross and bound him, after which
huge spikes were driven through his
palms. The crowd then sang and
danced about the body more than two
hours. Stones were thrown at the
body, cuts were made across the legs
with knives.
The sheriff summoned 50 residents
to aid him in rescuing Rabish. Twenty
foreigners were encountered and a
fight took place in whioh more than
100 shots were fired and three men
slightly wounded. Four of the Slavs
were arrested and are being held on
a murder charge.
Loss Probable in the Ozark Country
—Snow and High Winds.
Chicago, April 26—Despite the storm
that covered a dozen states in the last
48 hours and the government predic-
tion of more cold and snow, the shift-
ing of the wind to the northeast prom-
ises to mitigate extensive crop dam-
age in the Middle West. Greatest dam-
age has resulted in Iowa, Illinois, In
diana and Ohio. Greatly reduced fruit
crops and loss of early corn are cer-
tain. Reports from the Northwest in-
dicate that barley, oats, rye and corn
were badly damaged by the cold. The
soil, however, is still in fine condition
for plowing and it is not too late for
reseeding. In Kansas, Missouri and
Kentucky snow is expected to protect
small fruits and lessen the loss on ap-
ple.
St. ivouis, April 26.—Heavy snow-
storms and high winds with a tempera-
ture several degrees below freezing
are reported througl|#.t Missouri and
Southwestern Illinois. A report from
Lebanon, Mo., in the heart of the ap-
ple district, states that farmers have
given up the crop and have ceased
smudging. The peach and berry crop,
according to the St. Louis weather ob-
servatory officials, probably are also
destroyed, although there is slight
hope ,that a rising temperature will
save a portion of both.
Kansas City, April 26.—"From pres-
ent indications I think that we will
have about a 2." per cent .apple crop
and a 20 per cent cherry and pear
crop." Maj. Frank Holainger, a fruit
grower of Rosedale, said. "The peach
crop will be much larger. I don't be-
lieve the loss of the grape crop will be
as large as previously reported. The
reason for the conflicting reports is
due to the fact that no attention is
paid to the difference between valley
and highland grapes. The valley
grapes were farther advanced and con-
sequently more easily affected by the
cold. There is time for a new crop to
form from the dormant buds. As far
as I know the highland graps did not
suffer.'• j
Other fruit growers toon a less op-
timistic view of the situation.
