Mrs. George Arrairned

CANTON, O., Oct. 1l.-Mrs. Anna E.
George, charged with the murder of
George D. Saxton, was brought into
Justice Reignor's courtroom today in
the custody of Constable Charles Henry
to enter her plea to the affidavit charg-
ing her with murder. Long before the
hour the courtroom was filled with men
and women, all anxious to see Mrs.
George. She looked unconcerned. In
few minutes Mrs. Georges counsel,
Attorneys John G. Welty, Mayor James
A. Rice and James A. Sterling, entered
the room. Attorney Welty said they
desired to waive the reading of the affi-
davlt and enter plea of not guilty to
the charge.
Prosecutor Pomerene said that they
had right to waive the reading of the
affidavits, but that the prisoner must
answer for herself as to her guilt or in
nocence. With this statement by the
prosecutor, Justice Reignor asked Mrs.
George If she was guilty or not guilty
to the charge made against her in the
affidavit. Mrs. George, while seeming
ly not disturbed in the least, but in a
very weak and scarcely audible voice,
answered, Mot guilty.
Mrs Georges counsel insisted on hav-
ing the hearing within the statutory
four days and then named the hour for
Tuesday afternoon at o'clock, which
was ordered. Mrs. George was then
taken back to Jail
The night was without incident in the
cell OF the prisoner. 1t is claimed the
defense will be an alibi and the shots
were fired by man in woman's garb.
A postal card, dated Springfield, O.,

to the reviewing stand before the CITY

enthusiasm. Cheers and huzzas rent
the air when the head of the process
sion came into view and followed along
the street until solid roar filed the
air OF the night. Thousands crowded
OUT into the streets about the carriages
that bore the president and his distin.
gulshed companions and almost pre-.
vented the passage of the line Never
IN the history of Omaha was such a
scene OF wild enthusiasm ever witnessed
on its streets.
