ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THK DIsPATCH.I
FINDLAY, MAY 19.-The trial Of Henry
Kibler, Jerome Kibler, Charles Morgan,
Levi Fox, Albert Decker. John Long, Tuck
Hughes and Charles Bates, well-known resi-
dents of the county and city, under indict-
ment for being the principals in the now
famous Oman robbery. began in the Court
of Common Pleas here this morning. This
is the most sensational case in the criminal an
nails of Northwestern Ohio. and has attracted
attention all over the country on account OF
the dramatic features it has furnished from
time to time.
On the night of February 2, 1889, while Wesley
Oman and his family we're sitting around the
fire in their frame house. six miles south of this
city, the door of the room was suddenly broken
in and eight masked men rushed upon the
family and bound and gagged them. They
then demanded 1000. which Oman had re-
ceived few days before from the sale of land,
but which he had deposited in Findlay bank.
DID NOT BELIEVE HIM.
This he told the leader of the gang, but it was
not believed, and 4-year-old son was taken
and held over the fire until his feet were bis
tered, the object being to induce the father to
disclose the hiding place of the money and
save his child from further suffering. This fail
ing. they took $50 belonging to Oman's
father, and rode away, leaving the family
bound and gagged until morning. Oman sus-
pected some of his neighbors of the crime, and
employed Detective Lowe, of Toledo, to work
up the evidence.
The detective had collected testimony suff-
cient to secure an indictment when he was
suddenly taken i'll and died shortly afterward
in great agony at the Humphrey House IN this
city. A local detective. Henry Strickler, was
then employed, who procured the indictment
of the men whose trial began to-day, but two
weeks ago he became suddenly i'll with symp-
toms similar to those which carried Lowe to his
death and in a short time. he. too, followed his
predecessor to the grave, thus putting out of
the way two of the htate's most important wit
nesses
SUPPOSED TO HAVE BEEN POISONED.
1t is charged that Lowe and Strickler were
both poisoned, but as no analysis of their re-
mains was made this will probably never be
proven, although it will be charged by the
prosecution.
When the trial began this morning the de-
fense were represented by l6 of the best attor-
neys at this bar. and the selection of jury had
evening. The defense will attempt to prove an
alihi, but it is limited that one of the accused
will turn States evidence and disclose the
whole conspiracy to rob Oman, and the details
of the subsequent efforts to get rid of the two
detectives. Should these expectations be real
ized the case will sustain its sensational feat
ures to the close.
The jury will be sworn tomorrow morning,
and the taking of testimony will begin at
once. Over 150 witnesses are to be examined
and the courtroom will be crowded.

ANCIENT AND MODERN.
DON'T BE DUPED.

A so-called "Webster's Unabridged Die
tionary" is being offered to the pu bile at
very low price. The body of the book, from
A to q, is cheap reprint, page for page, Of
the edition of 1871, which was in its day
valuable book, but, In the progress of Ian
guage for over FORTY YEARS, has been
completely superseded. 1t is now repro
duced, broken type, errors and all, BY
Photographic process, is printed on cheap
paper and himsily bound. 1t is advertised
to be the substantial equivalent Of 'an 50 to
S12 book, while in fact it Is literal copy
OF book which in its day was retailed for
about S., and that book was much superior
in paper, print and binding to this imita-
ton, and was then the best Dictionary Of
the time instead of an antiquated one. A
brief comparison, page by page, between the
reprint and the latest and enlarged edition
will show the great superiority of the latter.
No honorable dealer will allow the buyer
of such to suppose that he is getting the
Webster which to-day is accepted as the
Standard and THE BEST.
There are several of these reprints, differ
ing in minor particulars, but DON'T BE
DUPED, the body of each is literal copy Of
the l847 edition.

THEY ARE ACQUITTED.
The Powderly and Byrne's Conspiracy
Trial Comes to nm End.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPArcH.I
GREENsBURG, May 1T. v. Powderly. ].
r. Byrne and Peter Wise were this evening ac-
quilted of the charge of conspiracy preferred
by the Hon. Edward Callaghan, of Scottdale
The case was taken up at l o'clock this after
noon, and it was given to the jury at s. and a
verdict was returned at O. The costs were
placed on the county. The main portion of the
testimony of the Commonwealth was given by
Callaghan himself, andlwas a reiteration of tine
story as gwen the public from time to time
since the beginning of the trouble. Letters
that had passed between Powderly and himself,
and columns from labor journals, were read,
charging each other with unfaithfulDess to the
interests of the K. of l., ard it seemed that
the charge of conspiracy was lost sight Of Mr..
Powderly testified that he knew nothing of the
prosecutor. and that he never conspired against
him; and that he had never been in the county
before. He stated tonight just before board
ing an east-bound train that ne would not enter
suit against Callaghan on any charge, but in
turn would lend that man his sympathies
The case created a great deal of interest, the
courtroom being crowded during the trial. MIR.
Powderly was defended by Senator Robbins
and James Beacon.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

the NEW YORK TIMES says:
"Only those who are ignorant of the
great advances that have been made in die
tionaries are likely to buy this reprint at
any price"
THE AMERICAN BOOKSELLER of New
York says:
"The etymologies are utterly misleading,
and naturally so; for when the Webster Of
1847 was issued Comparative PhiIology
was is in its cradle. The definitions are i'm
perfect, requiring condensation, re-arrange-
ment and additions. The vocabulary is
detective, some of the eommonest words
of to-day, especially scientific terms,
for which a dictionary is most often
consulted, being entirely absent In not
one of these three prime requisites of
dictionary is the Webster reprint a trust
worthy guide, or, rather, it is a misleading
one. This reprint is not in
tended for intelligent men. 1t is made ex-
pressly to be foisted by all the arts of the
book canvasser on those who have been pre-
cluded from knowledge of what develop
ments lexicography has undergone during
the last forty-t years. This is the cruelest
feature of this money-making enterprise"
The BUFFALO CHIsrIAN ADVOCATE
says:
DON'T BE DUPED. Thousands are, or
are likely to be, by the fashy, fraudulent
advertisements of The Original Webster's
Unabridged Dictionary which is offered
for three or four dollars. 4 If any
of our readers wish to invest in a pur-
chase which they will be likely afterward to
regret, they will do so after being duly
notified"
The JOURNAL OF EDUCATION, Boston,
says:
"Teachers cannot be too careful not to be
imposed on, since the very things which
make dictionary valuable in school are
wanting in this old-time reprint ANY
high-school dictionary which can be pur-
chased for dollar and fifty cents is worth
more for school use than this"
Many other prominent journals speak in
similar terms, and legitimate publishers
write US in strong condemnation of this
attempt to toist an obsolete book on the
public.
The LATEST and the BEST, which bears
our imprint on the title page, has OVER
1000 PAGES, with illustrations on almost
every page.
