SAW GEORGE SAxTON KILLED
Youthful Hobo In Chicago Tells an
Eyewitness story.

Chicago, July A.-Evidence which might
have had an important effect in the trial
of Mrs. Anna George Of Canton. Ohio. for
the murder Of George d. Saxton, brother
in-law of President Mckinley, last Octo-
Der, came to light today in the Juvenile
court. Russell Hogan, 10 years of age.
who was brought before the court as
Richard Mcknight, declared that he had
witnessed the shooting and had left
home that night through fear Of \being
called as a witness at the trial. 'T was
standing right across Lincoln avenue
from Mrs. Althouse's place and saw Mr.
Saxton on the porch and saw Mrs. George
shoot him. I was afraid they might do
something to me II I told what 1 had
seen, so 1 left home and have Travelled
all over the country since then" said the
boy, when assured by Judge Tuthill that
nothing would happen to him II he told
the truth. In response to further ques
tionings, young Hogan said that his
father was R NJ. Hogan, superintendent
of the Altman Manufacturing company,
and well known in Canton. Judge TuttliIl
directed that the case be continued until
July Is, and instructed Probation Oficer
Kelsey to communicate with Mr.. Hogan
at Canton regarding the boy who claims
to be HIS son. The boy IS bright LOOKING
and told his story in an unassuming man
ner He was brought before the court on
a charge of disorderly conduct
Canton, O., July 4-Martin j. Hogan,
the father Of Russell Hogan, does not
know what his boy saw the night of the
Saxton murder. He was sick, and when
the shots were fired the boy left him to
go towards the scene. Young Hogan was
wanted as witness in the trial here by
both sides. but disappeared shortly be-
fore the trial. The defense pretended to
want him because his testimony before
the coroner was that 1t was so dark that
he could not tell whether the person do
ing the shooting was man or a woman.
Rather than allow a postponement the
state admitted that had he been present
at the trial he would have testified as
claimed.

Just West of Guthrie.

ed to the Heat.
HE HAD BEEN DEMENTED

Guthrie, o. T., July A.-What was frst
thought to be the dead body Of an un-
known tramp was discovered yesterday
evening by two ladies of this city who
were driving along a road about mile
west OF Guthrie. The ladies were natur-
ally frightened at the uBaccustomed
sight, but retained sufficient presence of
mind to drive back TO the city and give
information to the proper officials. The
body was afterwards brought to the city
by the sheriff and laid out in an under
taking establishment It was dressed in
rough suit 70 clothing and the face was
fearfully swollen and black. In the dead
mans pocket was a letter of recommend
ton signed by T. p. Rodgers, county
commissioner Of Shawnee county, Kan.
and a letter addressed to ~. R Smith,
Topeka, Kan" The latter was evidently
written by the wife of the dead man, and
spoke Of their daughter. who would meet
him in Guthrie. The proprietor of res
taurant testified before the coroner's jury
this morning that the dead man applied
ut the back door or his restaurant yes
terday morning for something to eat. This
afternoon Giles T. Eubanks, a carpenter,
called at the undertaker's establishment
and identified the body as that of his
Bon-In-law, ]. r. Smith of Topeka. It was
the first intimation he had had that
Smith had left his home in Topeka. where
he had been kept under a sort of surveil-
lance because Of the weakened condition
of his mind. He said that Smith visited
him here about three years ago and for
seven months he had been an inmate Of
the asylum at Norman. His wife lives
at Wewoka, 1. T, and had expected to
meet her husband here in August. There
were no marks Of violence discovered on
the dead mans person and the suppo-
sition is that he was overcome by heat
while walking along the road.

as the Canadian officials who said the
route was a practicable one. The ma

The majority are American citizens and

Indians reported several parties lost in
the mountains! These men will never be
heard of again. 1t was after the Indian
guides left them that they strayed into
thhe section of country where there was
no fuel and there froze to death. The
parties quarreled among themselves,
owing to uncongeniality and dividing pro-
visions. They took different routes. Many
remnants of parties were lost in this way.
for, in their anger, they left the Indian
guides with the main portion OF the party
and wandered away to the mountains TO
