CLOSE OF ILLINOIS ASSEMBLY
During Last Hours Beet Sugar Bounty
Bill IL Passed Against Governor
Tanners Wishes.

SPRINGFIELD, H., April l5.-The two
houses adjourned almost simultaneously at
an early hour this morning. the senate at
$40 and the house at 3l2 a. m.
One OF the incidents Of the closing hours
was the fight on the beet sugar bounty.
The bill got through the senate. but was
substituted in the house for the house bill
which was identical, and then the house
passed it. Very soon the report was cir
eulated on the floor that Governor Tanner
was opposed to the bill and wished it re-
considered. strong movement for its re-
consideration was being hastily organized
when II was discovered that Senator Bo-
gardus, the promoter Of the measure, an
ucipating this maneuyer, had gotten the
bill out Of the house and had It reported TO
the senate and then sent to the enrolling and
engrossing clerk. The bill being out Of the
possession Of the house, il could not be re-
considered. Governor Tanner meantime had
come over 70 the house and contradcted the
story that he was demanding a reconsidera-
tion Of the bill. There is a prevalent be-
lief however that be will veto the measure

MRS. GEORGE SEEN IN THE ACT
Neiehbor Says She Witnessed the
Shooting from Her
window.

CANTON, o., April 15.-Attorneys for the
state regard this as their red letter day
in the trial OF Mrs. George They produced
the eyewitnesses to the firing OF two Of
the shots which took effect in Saxtons body.
One OF these claimed TO have identified Mrs.
George positively. as having fired the shots
and the other testified positively that the
woman she saw do the shooting closely
resembled Mrs. George, whom she knows
only as she has seen her in the court
room.
The state also qualified a witness on Mrs
Georges handwriting to identify a letter
which they want to introduce in evidence.
A third point which pleased the state was
the admission of a police officer who found
revolver, although he was not allowed to
tell how he found il TO the full extent of
the details asked of him. They wanted
to prove that Mayor Rice as counsel for
Mrs. George, told him where to find the
weapon and sent him after it.
The George trial opened this morn
ing with Miss Matte Grimes on the
stand for cross examination. She ex-
plained that she especially observed Mrs.
Georges flushed face when sha passed her
an hour after the murder had been com
mitted, because she, the witness. had heard
OF Saxton's death and had been told OF some
George
Policeman z. f. Willis was called to say
that Mayor Rice was Mrs Georges counsel
the morning after her arrest, but the evil
dence was excluded
Mrs. Oberlin, with whom Mrs George
roomed, described Mrs. Georges appearance
and dress when she left the house the morn
ing OF Saxton S death
Mrs Christine Eckroat presented start
ling testimony. She said she went to her
window on the night OF the murder, after
hearing two shots and saw a person bending
forward who fired two shots toward the
ground and then ran away through a vacant
lot. She identified the person as Mrs
George. Witness said she had previously
often noticed a woman walking in front of
the Althouse residence, whom she later
learned was Mrs. George. Mrs. Eckroat is
the hTst witness claiming TO recognize the
person who did the shooting
In cross s-eXamination the defense sought
to show that the witness did not know Mrs
George well enough to identify her and that
1t was too dark for anyone to recognize a
person across the street.
Mrs. Eckroat on cross examination said
she had been using morphine for nine or
ten years, but for the last six months
only took it every other day. She said she
had always done her housework and man
aged her household
Mrs. Laura Huwig Of Cleveland. a daugh-
ter OF Mrs. Eckroat, Sestifed as an eye-wi,-
ness to the firing OF two shots. She de-
scribed the person who fired them and said
from what she had seen Of Mrs George since
the defendant resembled the one she saw
ire the shots in figure, carriage and gen
eral appearance.
