and took the gun. going toward
mothers. t.5.= m
On direct examination Mrs. Pierce
said William did not say why he
thought he was to be driven out. Her
mother had lived there about fifteen
years. William had been there all the
time and always finding faults with
mother. She said fare you drove
out?'' to Charley when he came to
her house, and did not remember his
reply. He looked pale; gone but a
short time when he came back for the
gun; saw him going toward mothers ;
was gone ten or fifteen minutes. then
came back and got cartridges. Laid
her hand on gun and he said leave
1t be. - He took cartridges and went
westward. Thought this was about
10 80. Then she went home with her
mother. William Snow was in the
barn and had 22-csliker revolver.
On CROSS examination by Mr..
Blanchard Mrs.. Pierce said that there
were 80 acres in the farm where hel
mother and William lived, one half
(where the house was) belonging te
her mother, the other to William.
Her mother was about IS years old,
William about 4S. When William
said She won't need any either
understood him to mean Charley.
Mother said to William that no one
said anything about driving him out
and that the door had never been
locked on him. William seemed angry
because Charles lived there. Mrs.
Pierce thought the forty was decided
to her mother before Charley came
back, some three months ago. Charley
did not say when he left house with
gun that he would 90 over and see II
Bill would threaten to kill him.
Mre. Marcy Kingsley cousin of Mrs,
Pierce by marriage, testified that she
was at the Pierce house the morning
OF the murder; was told how William
acted. Mrs. Snow said she '. as afraid
to 20 back to the house. Mrs. Snow
told Charles, William had driven then
out. Charles said: ''I'll see VIII
will drive my old mother out. By
Cd If any one moves there he vii
move. This was about 10 o'clock.
When Charles asked for gun Mrs
Pierce said George had it; he wen
out and came back with it and Mrs
Pierce took it. He came back ant

might as we'll have one.' and wen
toward his mothers. Came back i,

FEVERISH EFFORTS.
Are Being Made to Recover Remain
ing Bodies of Wreck Victims.

Pueblo. Colo, Aug. 12.-Feverish
efforts are being made today by the
rescue parties to recover the bodies
of the victims of last Sunday nights
railroad disaster near Eden. 1t is
realized that recognition of bodies
found even now will be very difficult
owing to decomposition.
Blood hounds were used in the hope
of locating bodies yesterday, but were
called off after one narrowly escaped
drowning in the Quicksand.
The experience of the wrecking
crews at the scene of the disaster
yesterday caused the officers to express
the opinion that many bodies were
drawn into the sand at that point so
deep that they would never be recov-
cred. With great difficulty the loco
motive was raised and it took the COM
bined strength of two men to pull out
a shovel that was being drawn down
by suction of the under current.
More impetus was given the search
this morning by offers of $50 reward
for each body found and in some cases
a much larger sum being promised.
The coroner's jury resumed it's in
quiries at 10 o'clock this morning and
hopes to complete its work TODAY.

probably will be grave and vexatious-
Under the tenetS of international law
the captured vessel must be returned
to the custody of the Chinese govern
ment and an apology rendered for the
offense against Chinese neutrality But
if Russian lives have been lost, as re-
ported in the press dispatches, a
greater complication will follow, for
Russia may in turn hold China re-
Sponsible for the punishment of the
Japanese who caused the death of her
sailors when under the shelter of the
Chinese port authorities.
Altogether the situation is full of
danger and the main apprehension or
the officials here is that it may be an
incident that will break down the
agreement of the powers and plunge
China into the war as a full f1edged
belligerent and ally of japan. The
consequences of such an act on
China's part upon existing alliances
between Japan and Great Britain and
between Russia and France can only
be conjectured and the prospect is so
alarming that it is not doubted the
state department will do its utmost
along with the rest of the powers to
affect such a settlement of this Incl
dent as shall preserve the agreement
as to China in full force.

HAS A BROKEN NECK.
Samuel ShowaIter Suspended in Bed
at Chrits Hospital.

Samuel Showalter, a young man
about 80 years of age, was brought to
Christ hospital this morning from
Colby, Kas., with a broken neck. Or:
McClintock and DIR. Bowen suspended
him in bed, as the medical term has
it. and although everything is being
done for him, there is little hope for
recovery. The injured man is con-
scious and able to speak, but the great
er part of his body is paralyzed. While
he has little use of his hands, the
ordinary coordination is lacking
The accident happened at Colby six
days ago. ShOwalter with two other
men was riding on the front seat of
a heavy wagon loaded with salt. While
going down grade he slipped from the
seat and fell into the road. The hind
wheel of the wagon passed over his
neck He was not brought to Topeka
at once, as the attending physician did
not think he was strong enough to
be moved.
