SNUB FOR BURTON.
Roosevelt Refused to Recognize
Kansas Senator.

A few days ago a number of western
newspapers contained special dispatches
from Washington stating that Senator
Burton had headed a party of Kansans
which went to the White House to ex-
tend to President Roosevelt an invita-
tion to deliver the memorial address IN
Topeka in 1904. This was Senator Bur
tons first call at the White House
since his break with the president and
the impression was given out in the
dispatches that the president again re-
ceived the senator and that everything
was lovely again
The Milwaukee Journal of Wednesday
evening, however, publishes the follow
ing special:
In the presence of the entire delega-
ton in congress from Kansas and n
committee of citizens of that state who
called a the White House. President
Roosevelt openly snubbed Senator Bur
ton and refused to accept his proffered
hand.
Senator Burton introduced the kan
sans to the president. and as the KAN
sans were about to leave the president
shook hands with each in turn until he
came to Senator Burton. The senator
had extended his hand. but the presi-
dent, after giving him a hard look,
turned and walked away. Senator Bur
ton was deeply embarrassed by the
presidents snub, and the other kan
sans 44ere astounded by the incident.
Senator Burton will no longer be rec
ognized at the White House President
Roosevelt so expressed himself This IS

HIS MURDERER CAUGHT.
Knocked on the Head Win Club. Then
Cut His Throat.

Knocked on the Head Win Club. Then
Cut His Throat.
Last night Deputy J. y jackson Of
Pauls Valley brought in John Love.
whom he arrested last Monday at Ho-
mer charging him with the murder Of
an old man Alfred Graves. who was
found dead a few days previous with
his throat cut. John Love Is a black
negro, and had preliminary hearing
before Judge Pfeif1er who committed
him without bond.
Deputy Jackson was seen this morn
ing by your reporter and said. that
while the evidence against the negro
was all circumstantial. it was linked
together in such a manner that 1t made
a very strong case against the negro.
The evidence adduced is that Graves
who was 81 years old, started from Hen
nepin afoot going TO Alma, and whom
he had got considerably on his way he
was overtaken by a negro who was
riding and the animal and saddle was
e good one The negro tried 10 trade
the horse and saddle to the old man
for gun and offered the horse so low
that the old man became suspicious
The old man met a machine man
and told him of the negro. who had
gone on ahead and was advised by the
machine man TO turn around and 20
back, that II was dangerous TO travel
alone on that road. The machine man
went on and looking back he saw the
old man standing writing something
in book.
Graves went on and met some ne
groes, whom he told OF this negroes
strange actions. and asked them II
they knew him. They were requested
to ride back and see II they knew who
he was. They did So but the negro
turned his horse into the woods and
left the road. That was suspicious.
The man went on over the hill and
was found in the bottom below some
days afterward with his throat cut and
evidences of being struck on the head
with club or some blunt instrument
Twenty dollars Ia money that he was
known to have when he left Hennepln
land perhaps he had morel was gone
and the note found in his note book
that he evidently wrote when the ma.
chine man looked back at him and saw
him writing
The note is the strongest evidence
the government has against the negro
because, old man Graves, thinking
perhaps the negro meant to 90 him
harm, had written a perfect descrip
tion of the negro-John Graves
