THE EXAMINATION
of. R. Willard for Killing 7. D,
Perry at Liberty.
Details Of the Testimony on the Pre-
liminary Hearing Before Justice
Johnson Of Salem.

The preliminary examination Of j. r
Willard, the ex-postmaster and mer-
chant at Liberty, on charge of murder
in the first degree was begun at one
o'clock today before Justice of the
Peace II. A. Johnson, in the circuit
court room at the Marion county court
house. This room was secured because
the justice Office proved entirely toe
small for the crowd that is in attend
ance. The case is one Of unusual inter
est az both the dead man and his slayer
are well known here.
The affair has aroused intense interest
in this city and the surrounding country
and has been almost the sole topic Of
discussion.
The general sentiment seems to be
strongly in Wizards favor although
perhaps not quite so strongly now as al
first. The facts, that the revolver with
which the sho )ting wfs done had been
bought that morning, and that three
fatal wounds were inflicted, besides the
one shattering the arm, are given more
prominence than at first.
The facts developed in the case thus
far, show that J. X. willard, on the af-
ternoon of Tuesday, October "a, shot
and killed 7. d. Perry, near Liberty,
four miles south of Salem, on ground
owned by Perry and leased by willard
MAIN FACTS OF THE CASE.
The time for which Willard had paid
his rent would not expire for several
months, but willard had moved into
Salem leaving a calf and some chickens
on the place.
There had been some trouble between
the men, and Perry went out to the
place on Monday with the avowed in.
tention of taking and holdingpossession
The day Of the shooting, Willard went
there with w. W. Stephens, moi
knowing that Perry was there.
The men met and by the testimony o.

THE MAZET INQUIRY.
Counsel Moss Creates a Sensation By
An Ultimatum.

New York. May 1S.-The Mazet commit
tee spent the greater part of the day
in an attempt to show the respective
bonding interests of city employees held
by the so-called Freedman and the So
called Plat Surety companies. Counsel
Moss, for the committee, after an eiabor-
alta examination into this matter. said
that the significant feature of what has
been shown was the growth of the Freed
man company, the youngest OF all the
bonding companies. during the past year
or two, in the bonding of city officials.
Police Commissioners Hess and Abel
were on the stand for a short time today.
Commissioner Hess agreed with Counsel
Moss in an expression of an opinion that
facts of suspicious nature had been pre-
scented before the committee.
The sensation of the day was when Mr..
Moss asked Commissioner Abel If ne had
ever investigated the death of Police Cap
tain Okeefe.
Abel said he thought O'Keefe died from
an accident.
Don't you know" said Mr. Moss 'that
at this day that neighborhood is AL of
the rumor. that has never been properly
investigated by the police department.
that Captain O'Keefe was killed because
he had knowledge of a guilty plot to re-
move another man from this life and it
was not safe to let him live with that
Knowledge"
Commissioner Abel had never heard
of it.
MIR. Moss said there might be no tam
gible evidence to base the rumors on. but
he added: You don't expect tangible evil
dence in the Molineux or other similar
cases" to which Mr.. Abel agreed.
Mr.. Moss referred to NJ. c. Gurks' place
on the Bowery. sometimes called the sui
eide dive" because so many young girls
killed themselves there. Mr.. Abel said
il was shut up now.
Mr.. Moss intimated that 1t was still
running in another house.

KAISER IS INDIGNANT.
Reports Regarding Germany's Atti-
tude Toward Peace Conference.

Washington. May 1S.-The German
ambassador DR.. Won Holleben, called
at the state department today ana had
a talk with Secretary Hay. in the
course of which, it is understood. refer
ence was made TO the opening day of
the sessions of the peace conference al
The Hague.
Some Of the structures on the prob
abe course of Germany before the con-
ference, which have appeared in print,
has caused considerable irritation. as
they are felt TO misrepresent the aims
ana purposes of Germany. One of these
dispatches attributed to Emperor vii
liam views regarding an inevitable con-
fiict between the United States and
Germany. Such an idea, il is said.
must have originated in the statement
of an Austrian official some months ago
which never met with the approval of
the kaiser. who it is pointed out, both
in person and through his foreign min
tster, Baron Won Buelow and his am
kessador, DR.. Won Holleben. has given
repeated assurances of friendship, good
Will and admiration for the United
States
In the same quarters discredit is
thrown upon the statement that the
car expressed sympathy with the
American Indignation against Germany
anent the Philippines, as il is pointed
out that the car is not in the habit Of
thus publicly expressing his national
sympathies.

Trouble Over Sending Troops Into

trouble had been correctly quoted in
the press dispatches, in which he was
represented as ordering Lieutenant
Lyons to make arrests of alleged strik-
ers in Montana to obey his orders and
no one else. The letter from General
Merriam is as follows:

LOGAN'S POSTOFF|CE FIGHT
REV. MIR. CLEMENsoN is A CAN
DIDATE.
Non ormons Say No Mormons Need
Apply-Editor Hyde Is Strong
Candidate.

Z. T. Hyde, the editor of the Logan
Nation, was in Salt Lake yesterday
sounding prominent Republicans to see
who would be the probable successor of
Orson Smith as postmaster at Logan. A
large number of candidates are in the
race, Editor Hyde among the rest, and
it is hard to tell who will get the plum.
A prominent Republican stated yester-
day that Mr.. Hyde would be an easy
winner on account of his faithfulness
to the party during and since the
Bryan landslide, and because of his
popularity with his party in Cache
The other candidates, however, are
pulling their strings, and nearly all
have influential friends.
Another Loganite stated yesterday
that on account of that peace meeting
where there was no peace, a Mormon
VS.. non-Mormon fight is on in Logan,
and that the nom Mormors are pushing
the Rev. Mr.. Clemenson for the post
mastership, and declare that no Nor
mon need apply.

The rialto is in fever of excitement
over the Exchange ball game tomorrow
afternoon. Stock sales, either of the
wash" or genuine variety, are rele-
gated to back seats while the contest
on the diamond takes the center of the
stage.
Big wads of currency are being
flashed and bets are taken as freely as
they are offered. 1t was announced on
the Salt Lake exchange yesterday
morning that one broker alone had $500
which he wished to wager in part or
as a whole on the representatives of
that body. Before night takers were
found.
Ben Luce and George w. Jones made
a bet of $50, Luce taking the Salt Lake
end. Another wager was gotten up be-
tween A. NJ. Petersen, a baker, and w.
A. Chapman. Petersen puts up thirty
loaves of bread on the Salt Lakers
against 81 of Chapman's money. Other
bets were too numerous to mention,
