this statement he was undoubtedly tell
ing the truth. but in some way he got
into communication with Biebush. and
when the cases came up for trial we
found Hargate had suddenly suffered
from lapse of memory in telling the
first story. He said he made the dies
al time so far in the past that the
offense was outlawed. and by this trick
originated by Biebush the Englishman
nearly escaped. He was in i'll health,
and was given a light sentence on that
account. He was not an engraver of
the first class and believe never made
any more trouble for the government
"Old Fred realizing that he had
come to his last ditch. retained the
ablest criminal lawyers he could find
Judge Simmons and Ex-Governor
Fletcher. Writs of habeas corpus had
been sued out for Hoosier Bill and John
Mitchell. and they were brought TO St
Louis to testify against Biebush. The
latter's attorneys Immediately raised
the point that these two were prohib-
tied from testifying under the Missouri
law. and three days argument on
this point followed The judge finally
decided. however. that their testimony
should be admitted, and ] believe this
case stands out as the first in that
state in which convicts testimony was
admitted.
All that money and the best of legal
talent could do failed to break down
our case. and 'Old Fred" was SEN
fenced to ten years i'm the peniten-
tiary. The government law fixes a
maximum penalty of fifteen years i'm
prisOnment for counterfeiting currency
and ten years for counterfeiting metal
money Sullivan was sentenced to two
years. Rev. Andrew Jackson Thomas
ministerial career was brought to a
sudden close by his being sent to the
penitentiary for five years. 'Hankey'
Ihlelen.s sentence was one year
Mrs. Thomas was sentenced to serve
four months in Jail TechnicaIIy her
offense merited greater punishment.
for she had passed counterfeit money
at times without the knowledge of her
husband. Had her Offense consisted
merely in aiding her husband and work

not have been punished at all for

Washington, FEB. ~. - The Repub-
licans OF the house of representatives
decided in conference yesterday that
the house statehood provision shall
prevail or that no statehood legislation
will be enacted by the present
congress. The resolution, which it is
said sets forth this position, and
which was adopted by vote Of 112 to

iona as one state, as provided in the

KEEP PROBING LAND FRAUD.
Montana, Wyoming and Washington
to Get Attention,

Washington, Feb. II. - AS soon as
the public land fraud cases are cleared
up in Oregon, where several more ill.,
dictments of considerable Importance
are expected to be returned shortly. it
is expected that the government will
devote considerable attention to cases
growing out of alleged land frauds OF
considerable extent in Washington,
Montana and Wyoming. There are
many matters that have developed in
those states that bear some similarity
to the transactions on which the eff
forts of the government have been
largely concentrated for long period
in Oregon, and the present expectation
is that these will be looked into with
the same vigorous policy as has
marked the proceedings of recent
months.

CONGRESS.
Senate Enters Upon the Real Work %
the SWayne Trial.

the SWayne Irial.
Washington, Feb. II. = The senate
yesterday heard the first witness
called in connection with the impeach-
ment proceedings against Judge
Swayne of Florida and thus entered
upon the real work of the trial. The
statement of the case on behalf of the
house was made by Manager Palmer,
who went over the various charges
against Judge Swayne and said it was
the expectation of the managers that
all of them would be proven. The
witnesses heard yesterday testified
concerning hotel bills paid by Judge
Swayne while holding court in Texas.
The senate decided to devote the
time between and o'clock each day
to the Swayne inquiry.
After maintaining it's record for the
rapid disposition of private pension
bills, 433 being passed in an hour and
a half, the house yesterday considered
for short while the bill providing a
government for the Panama canal
zone.
An early adjournment was taken to
enable the Republicans to confer on
the statehood bill.

MRS. EDWARDS TAKES BLAME.
Declares Man Condemned to Die With
Her Is Innocent.


Reading, Pa, Feb. II. - Mrs. Kate
Edwards. who is under sentence to be
hanged with Samuel Greason on
Thursday next for the murder OF her
husband, made a statement to her
counsel last night in which, it is said,
she exonerates GreasOn from COM
plicity in the murder. The statement
will not be given to the public until it
is presented to the board of pardons,
but the inference is left that she adj
mitted that she alone committed the
crime. Mrs Edwards and Greason,
who is cOlOred man, were convicted
of the murder of Edwards. and since
the death sentence has been pro-
nounced extraordinary efforts have
been made to save them from the gal
lows The board of pardOns has here
tofOre refused to interfere and the
state supreme court has affirmed the
lower courts verdict. Mrs. Edwards
confession, it is thought, will place the
case in an entirely new aspect before
the board of pardons. The board will
meet at Harrisburg Feb. Is, the day
before the date fixed for the double
execution. If the woman's statement
is accepted by the board it may save
the mans life.

SAYS ALL OF HIS EIGHT DEAD
WIVES DIED NATURAL
DEATHS.
MANY WIVES IDENTIFY HIM
ONE WIFE EXPLAINS CiRCuM.
STANCES OF HER PREDE.
CESSOR'S DEATH.

Chicago, Feb. IL. Confronted by
living witnesses of his duplicity at
the coroner's investigation yesterday
into the death of Mrs. Walcker-Hock,
his last victim, Johann Hook, the
much-married man, according to the
police, has admitted his marriage to
thirteen women in the last ten years.
Eight of these women who at one time
bore the name of the alleged bigamist,
are now dead, but Hook declares they
died natural deaths and is firm in his
denial that he poisoned any of them.
With the exception of the Identified
ton of Hook by several of his wives,
or their friends, nothing new devel-
oped at yesterdays hearing of the cor
oner's jury, and at the conclusion of
the examination of witnesses last
night Coroner Hoffman announced
that the inquest would be postponed
until next Wednesday.
The principal witness at yesterdays
examination was Mrs. Fischer-Hock, a
sister of the woman over whom the in
quest was being held. The witness is
the woman Hook married. few days
after the death of Mrs. Walcker-Hock
In her testimony the witness ex-
planned in minute detail all the Cir
cumstances surrounding the death OF
her sister, but there was nothing in
the evidence to DrOVe that Hook was
responsible for the woman's death.
During the investigation Jacob j.
Ness of Cincinnati identified Hook as
the man he had known in that place
in 1896 who married two German
widows under the name of Schmitt.
