 Did Mrs. Pennell say she was going to get divorce from Pennell?'
 NO, she said she had heard the story that she was getting a divorce, but she said she had no intention of doing any thing of the kind. She said she had spoken to Burdick about taking his wife back Before that Burdick had told the wit ness that Mrs Pennell wanted him to take Mrs. Burdick back. She said that Mrs. Pennel had caused all the trouble in the first place and that 1t was too late for her to intercede.
 T believe 1t was Mrs. Pennell who first told Burdick about MT. Pennell and Mrs. Burdick." declared Mrs. Payne.
 Mrs. Pennell had never told witness that Pennell had threatened to do Burdick harm, and witness had never heard of Pennell threatening harm to Burdick. She did not know whether Pennell was quick tempered man.
 Lawyer Hubbell asked Mrs Payne if she knew of Burdick carrying weapon. She did not know, although Burdiok had told her he had been followed
 Did he ever express his feeling toward Pennell?"
 He said he would forgive Pennell for all that he had done if he would only marry Mrs. Burdick. He said he would permit her to have the children six months of the year"
 Did he ever say anything about mur- dering Pennell?n
 ''He said once: Who would there be to take care of my children If I had murder on my hands?"
 Burdick's Partner Testifies. Charles s. Parke, Burdick's business partner, who had been associated in bust ness with him for fourteen years, and had known him for eighteen years, made some important statements on the stand. He occasionally visited, he said. at Bur dicks home. About a year ago, he saw Arthur R. Pennell at Burdicks office. At one time Pennell was Burdicks lawyer.

Both Wanted Suit Withdrawn.


 He said both MT. and Mrs. Pennell had pleaded with him to drop it. What was the purpose of that confer ence you speak of?''
 q understood 1t was held for the pur- pose of reaching a peaceful settlement of their troubles But it was fruitless Burdek said he made no concessions" What was Mir Burdick's mental con- dition about that time?' asked District Attorney Coatsworth.
 Well, it appeared to me that for some time he had been breaking down. He had been unable to concentrate his mind, and I had noticed painful look on his face. :" Mir Parke said he knew Mrs. Hull quite well. He had never heard of any i'll feel ing between Mrs. Hull and Burdck. Did he ever tell you they had quar- reled?'
 NO, sir"
 Dr. Marcey first informed MT. Parke of the murder of his partner. The doctor said he would have liked to make 1t out a case of suicide but it was impossible. MT. Parke saw Mrs. Hull and the chill dren.
 What did Mrs Hull say to you?' "She said: How could anybody have the heart to rob these little children Of their father?"
 Did you have any suspicion as to who might have killed him?"
 "No, sir
 "Was there anything about Mrs. Hull's actions that attracted your attention?" Nothing, except that she appeared to be suffering from shock and to be in se-

Burdick told Mir. Parke about the trouble with his wife about Christmas time. MT. Burdick told him he did not blame Mrs. Burdick so much as he did Pennell. He said he had shown him every considera- tion and that Pennell had promised to get out of town, but he had not done so. He said he had lost patience and the divorce suit was to go on.
 "Then the man who made all the trouble was Pennell2"
 Yes"
 "Did Burdick say he was afraid of Pennell?"
 He said he had been warned to look out for Pennell, but he believed Pennell was a physical coward, and he had no fear of him. He said he carried a revolver when he went out of town, just as a matter of precaution."
 Burdick had a conference with Pennell in a lawyers office about the proceedings Did he tell you anything that Pennen said at that conference?'
 He said Pennell had threatened to commit suicide If the suit not stopped. He threatened to kill both him self and Mrs. Burdick if the divorce pro- ceedings were continued Burdick told me he thought the threat was a bluff"
 Did Burdick tell you that Mrs. Pen nell had tried to have him withdraw the sult?'

In these lines becsusethey will be

that the oil producers, who for
years have been compelled to hang
on to the hot end of the poker, so
to speak, shall be compelled to
crawl and cringe before the SIAN

oil producers have not the sand to
attempt to protect themselves.
The Review has no favoIites to

concerned and the Staudlrd Oh

be that the slowness of the Stan

lions necessitated the use of a tor

the sort of torpedo needed but the
fact remains that all pipe line mana
