HOLDS WALLER RESPONSIBLE
Judge Advocate Kinesbury Blames
Major for Disasters which
BefeII Marines.

MANILA, April 12.-The Judge advocate,
Major Henry p. Kingsbury, replied today
to the summing up before the court-martial
yesterday Of Captain Arthur T. Mark, rep
| resenting Major Littleton w. T. Waller,
| who is being tried for executing natives Of
Samar without trial.
Major Kingsbury made an eloquent ad-
| dress. He commended that Major Waller
was under military and not martial law
and there was nothing in the conduct OF
the men who were shot deserving of such
punishment.
The Judge advocate blamed Major Waller
himself for the disaster which befell the
marines and accused him Of abandoning ten
helpless comrades to die Of hunger and
whose bones we're now bleaching on the
banks OF the Lanang."
The Judge advocates denunciation Of the
methods by which the prisoners were to be
shot were chosen, was dramatic. "They
were lined up" he said; for the rafie Of
death, at the sole will and pleasure Of
Private Davis, a marine who was Judge
and prosecutor and processes many arms"
He referred to Davis testimony in terms
of whitening scorn, accused Major Waller
of listening to the dictates OF ambition
and not to the dictates Of duty, asserting
that the natives, according to the evidence,
acted in many instances In a highly com
mendable manner and declared that their
faithfulness and not their treachery had
been disclosed before the court.
Captain Mark requested permission to
make a short reply. He protested strongly
against criticism of the way in which
Major Waller had conducted the campaign.
which, he said, was outside the case, and
again insisted that martial law ruled by
the mere nature of the conditions.
The court deliberated less than half an
hour. No decision was announced.

AN INTERVIEW WITH LooKHART.
Mill-End Sales, an Interesting
~t.PsrEOnaRe.

Mr.. C. A. Lockhart, through HIS concelv-
Ing Of the mill-end sale idea, has become
one Of the best known characters Of the
country. His plan Of controlling the out
put OF mill OF the representative man
ufacturers OF the country has proven a
boon to the consumers in all the large
cities where these mill-end sales are held.
Mr.. Lockhart was found In a very genial
mood and quite disposed to discuss the
merits OF his sale. The mlll-end sale
seems part OF the man and his herculean
task is a pleasure to him.
9TH success OF the miil-end sale" said
Mr.. Lockhart, "Is directly due to the fact
that II enables the people to secure the
most desirable classes OF merchandise at a
price that is considerably under the or
binary. OF course that sounds simple, but
1t is no easy matter to bring about such
conditions. Now am not going into de-
tails: all the public cares for anyhow are
the results. and the results have been
demonstrated to the people OF Omaha with
a vigor on three different occasions. The
sale that am going TO start tomorrow at

Of the greatest l have ever held, and you
must bear in mind ! have conducted sales
in the largest stores In the United States.
I do not feel q stranger In Omaha any
more. There are thousands OF the Boston
Store patrons that know me mi the en-
ployes exert their utmost energies to aid
me. / feel grateful TO them and am glad
Of an opportunity to tell them so through
a local paper"
Mr.. Lockhart was also very emphatic in
his declaration OF the fact that J. l..
Brandeis & Sons are as aggressive mer-
chants as he has ever known. He says:
'The people of Omaha have reason to feel
proud Of such a business institution. II ~
undoubtedly a beneht TO them and. judging
by the stores great popularity, 1t is APP
precisted."
Nov" he says. almost pleadingly.
Come down 70 the store tomorrow. want
you TO see the mountains OF mill-ends
and I want you to see the crowds Of buy
ers and the satisfied look on their faces;
that will tell you why my mill-end sale has
| been q success"

FLOUR MILLS FORCED DOWN
Cease Operations as Result of Dis
eliminating Rate Against
f, Their Product.

MINNEAPOLIS, April 12.-About so per
cent OF the -four mill capacity of this city
will be idle pext week and for an In
definite time thereafter until conditions Inn
prove. This means loss Of time to about
1000 mill employees.
The shutdown is due partly to the pre-
MUM mills have to pay on May wheat,
principally because of the discriminating
rates on wheat and -four in favor OF wheat.
This. discrimination is even now the sub
ject OF negotiation between mills and the
railroads. and although the western roads
are willing to equalise the rates the east
ern roads have so far declined to do SO.
The consequence is that the export de-
mand for hour has fallen. II being more
profitable to ship the wheat and grind II
abroad. The roads maintain that hour IL
more expensive to handle than wheat and
that the rate must. therefore, be higher.
The millers claim to be able to explode
this theory entirely.

circumstances seem to combine to make
the house Of Schneider q Mueller the foun-
tain head for piano and organ bargains. We
have Just brought to a successful close one
Of the ~greateet piano sales ever held In
Omaha. over 100 people took advantage
OF the excellent bargains given during our
annual spring clearing sale; hundreds OF
other people, for some reason or other, did
not get in.
NOW COMES THEIR OPPORTUNITY.
We have Just purchased the entire stock
OF pianos and organs of the western branch
OF Hardman, Peck q Co.. OF New York,
known as the Mueller Piano and organ
Co. Few people realize to what proper
tion this western branch OF this famous old
factory had grown. Started in Council
Bluffs In 1859. they expanded. year by year,
until they numbered several thousands OF
the best people Of low and Nebraska
among the users OF the celebrated Hard
man" piano.
They always carried at this branch,
lowing to It being their western distribut-
ing point, a very large assortment, not
only Of the "Hardman' but also Of the
popular Harrington, Standard, Palmer,
Schaffer, Story G. Clark, Carlton, Madelon
and others. Now this immense stock, CON
sisting OF about 175 pianos and a number
Of new and used organs, also several
square pianos, will be sacrificed at prices
never before dreamed Of.
MONDAY MORNING.
Is the time set to throw this elegant stock
on the tender mercles of the people. II

we are simply forced to do 1.-THE lease on
the building now occupied by the Mueller
Piano and organ Co. has about expired,
and 1t is quite out OF the question to put
these 175 Instruments on our already over
crowded wareroom fioors-where we at all
times have over $50 pianos covering thir-
ty-two different makes--consequentiy we
have decided to sacrifice this immense
stock OF strictly standard instruments until
we can reduce our stock to its normal size.

Clutch and Loses Privi-
IeEe of Appeal.

WICHITA, Kan, April 12.-Rev. Granville
Lowther, who was convicted Of heresy at
the recent session Of the Southwest Kansas
conference Of the Methodist Episcopal
church, and who has announced his de-
termination to appeal the case, cannot have
that privilege, according TO the statement
Of Rev. w. H. Rose, who was junior coun-
sci for Rev. Mr., Lowther during the trial.
Rev. Rose is now stationed at Mcpherson,
where he is pastor OF the church lately
served by the depoeed minister. He says.
Under the law of the church Rev. Mr.;
Lowther has forfeited his right to appeal
by continuing to preach after he had been
convicted and expelled from the ministry,
He Is still 2 member Of the MethSdist
exercise ministerial functions.
Rev. Mr.. Rose had in mind the two times
that the convicted minister has preached
since the announcement Of the verdict.
The Sunday after the trial he preached in
the Methodist church at Geuda Springs, and
last Sunday afternoon he preached to q
large congregation in the MCPHERSON opera
house.

by the demonstrations recently made. Mr..
Van der velde said he thought not, saying
that their number in Belgium Is insig-
n%ihcant. He admitted that there we're a
few anarchists In Liege and the other coal
fields, but declared they had little influence
with the workmen. He does not believe
the explosion at the National bank Monday
was perpetrated by anarchists or revision

day, he declared It, was unprecedented,
