ter to be probated as part of the will

must be ;attested by three witnesses. He
holds admission Of the sealed letter"
would override that statute. The court
said there was nothing descriptive In
the will except this phrase: Sealed let

therefore there is nothing whatever to

American Physicians Get No Results

New York, March 31.-The work Of
DR.. Maragliano Of the University Of

a serum for the prevention of tIbercu.
losis was read before gathering -
physicians at Philadelphia yesterday.
and in which he expressed a belief
that men might be made immune to
consumption by vaccination. Is wei

Of agriculture supplied the serum q

inent practitioners like DR.. LoomiA
Professor Trudeau andfothers have ex-
perimented with 1t. sAfter testing it,
efficiency for about two years they
concluded that its effect was nil ana
abandoned its use.
DR.. Loomis said yesterday that the
serum had been used in many cases
at the sanitarium In Liberty, N. Ys
where the conditions of climate and the
surroundings are almost perfect for
arresting the progress of tuberculosis
of the lungs. AS the patients shovel
neither harm nor benefit from its use.
the serum was dropped after couple
of years testing.

WEsCOTT MURDERCAS
Expert Evidence Being introduced in
the Case From Worth County, Now
Being Tried at Mason City.

SUE .ial to Times Republican.
Mason City, March s1.-Dr. Phillips
was the principal witness in the Wes-
colt case this morning. He thought
on direct examination. that the frac-
lures in the skull showed more than
one blow and that 1t was more than
probable that It was caused oy some
hard instrument rather than a fail.
The defense forced the admission that
the fractures could possibly result from
a fall and that the probable swelling
and discoloration would have resulted
before an hour and half after the
wound was made. AS witnesses yester-
day testified to very limited swelling,
if any, when the body was found. the
defense will claim this shows he must
have come by the injuries long after
Wescott drove home the fatal night.

Bad HunsIe In Sentencing Car Barn

Chicago. March 31.-A seemingly bad
bungle in the sentence of the car barn
bandits, Marx, Neidesmeier and Van
Dine, confronted the state attorneys
office today. Instead of speedy hang

set for hanging must not be earlier
than the tenth day of the next term
of the state supreme court nor later
than the twenty fifth. April %, the
date on which. according to the SEN
tence, the bandidts were to be hanged
will be the twenty seventh day of the
supreme court term. The fact is de-
veloped that the attorneys for the de-
fense have been quietly waiting until
Saturday next when proceedings were
to be instituted to have the sentence
set aside and the three bandits releas-
ed The states attorney is now trying
to find an effective way to make the
correction before Saturday.
Before any action could be taken by

made for writ of habeas corpus in be-
half of the bandits. The writs were
issued by Judge Chytraus and were
made returnable Monday.

The bill for an appropriation of$50,000

IOWA MINERS ARE OUT
Long Drawn Out Conference Comes to
Nauaht and All the Miners in Iowa
Went Out This Afternoon John
Mitchell Asked to Come to Aid in
Reimbursement = Strike in illinois.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, March 3l.-Unable to
agree to an arbitration of their differ
ences the Iowa miners and operators
split in Joint conference today. with the
result that l3,500 miners quit work at
4 o'clock this afternoon. The confer
ence had been in session eighteen days,
most of which were spent in an attempt
to arrive at an samicable conclusion.
The split resulted from the refusal on
the part of the operators to raise the
wages of the unskilled and to lower the
price of blasting powder from 81 per
can to S175. The miners also demand
the mines of the first and second dis
tricts to that paid in the third and
fourth. The operators claim that the
miners are held to a lower scale by the
indianapolis agreement and were will
ing to submit all questions not covered
by that agreement to arbitration. All
the coal Of the state is in the hands IF
the railroads. Miners have sSe,0o0 in
the district treasury TO conduct the
strike. Leaders of both sides believe
the trouble will be settled in two weeks.
kilograms have been sent to John
Mitchell, asking him to come to Des
Moines and aid in a readiustment Of
the difficulties.
President White of the Iowa miners
said today: The miners have made
every attempt to arbitrate and We're
unable to reach an agreement There
is nothing else to do now but to fight
it out to the end. shall never sanc
ton an agreement under the present
conditions
Leading operators say the position
Of the miners is untena'ble and that
they cannot reach them SO long as they
cling to their present condition. 1t is
believed the lockout may be the begin
ming Of long hard struggle. The strike
and lockout will include mines in APP
panoose, Mahaska, keokuk, Wapello,
Marion, Jasper Polk, Boone and Web
ster counties, Iowa, and In Putnam
county Missouri In Polk county there
the 4,5OO miners while more than two

ness in this county alone.
