GOES
TO PRISON CELL
Peoria s Elk Paragon Pleads Guilty
and Is Sentenced to the
Penitentiary.

Peoria, Ill, Nov. 24.-Newton c.
Dougherty, former banker and president
of the board Of education, appeared be-
fore Judge Worthington today, pleaded
guilty to five of the forgery charges
against him and was given sentence
Of from one to fourteen years on each
five counts Of the Indictment, the same
to be concurrent. He will be taken to
Joliet penitentiary tonight or tomor-
row.
The prisoner, accompanied by W. T.
Irwin, one Of his attorneys, his son
Ralph and a deputy sheriff, left the jail
at 1880 O'Clock. As he left the build
ing, Dougherty said to the iailer:
"Well, I guess I'll have to do it,
In the courtroom there were 200 spec
tators who had heard that the ex-edu-
Gator and fnancier would plead guilty.
Attorney Irwin addressed the court.
He said that Dougherty had turned all
of his property over to him and that
he (Irwin) had been given authority to
settle the affairs of the prisoner. He
added that Dougherty's property would
amount to more than the school board
defalcations. He admitted that Dough
erty had been careless and that he stood
willing to take his punishment.
Judge Worthington then sentenced
him.. While the: court was speaking,
Dougherty looked straight ahead Of him
and did not move muscle. He said
nothing when the sentence was pro.
nounced, and was taken back to Jail
escorted by his attorney.

g ON A STEAMER
IN PERIL ON LAKE
The Argos Is on a Bar, The Heavy
Sea Making Rescue Diff
cult.
Women Are Rescued from Ves-
sci, Swung Over the Seeth-
ing Seas. IT,. .

Holland, Mich, Nov. 24.-During a
terrific storm on Lake Mich gan last
night the passenger steamer Argos OF
the Graham and Morton passenger fleet
went hard aground on sandbar north
of the north pier, and all efforts TO
release her have up to this time been
futile. The boat carries a crew Of
twenty-five men and has thirty passen-
gers aboard. The boat Is in great dan
ger Of being pounded to pieces as the
wind is shifting from the south to the
southwest. Owing to the heavy sea
which is rolling it is impossible for the
saving crew to reach the steamer,
and the passengers and crew may be
taken off in the breaches buoy. She
left Chicago last night at 8 o'clock. One
of the Graham & Morton steamers from
Benton Harbor is on the way to Hol-
land to try to release the Argos.
In the Brooches Buoy.
It was finally decided to remove the
endangered passengers Of the Adrgo with
the breaches buoy. The life-saving
crew accordingly dragged their cannon
to favorable spot on the beach and
fired line across the rough water to
the Argo. It was made fast on the
steamer and then the breaches buoy
was sent out and the rescue work be-
gun.
The first persons brought ashore were
Mrs. P. J. Miskern, Mrs. G. Johnson,
Mrs. W. T. Conan and little daughter
Of Big Rapids, Mich, and Mrs. O. W.
Earl Of Chicago, all Of them thoroly
soaked during their trip across the
swaying line on which the breeches
buoy was drawn back and forth. Spray
was dashed over them in clouds by the
fifty miles an hour wind, but the four
women and the child reached the beach
without suffering any injury After
their safe arrival the work of taking
off the male passengers was begun, and
one by one they were drawn to the
beach. The passengers retained their
self possession thruout the trying ex-
perience, and there was nothing like a
panic, at any time after the steamer
struck.
Will Go to Pieces.
Unless aid comes to the Argo within
few hours it is thought that she will
surely go to pieces on the beach. Since
first grounding the gale has increased
steadily until at noon today it reached
fifty three miles an hour. BY. shifting
more toward the west, the wind ha:
driven the Argo about quarter Of :
mile farther north than the point sh,
first stranded on and 200 feet neare:
shore. It is not expected that tus
can reach the. steamer in time to saw
her. -.

DEFENSE BY MERIWETHER
Court Martial Has Heard Most Of Pro-
). secution's Testimony. p.

Annapolis, Mr., Nov. 24.-The court
martial which is trying Midshipman
Minor Meriwether for mansluaghter in
causing the death of Midshipman James
R. Branch in fight between the two,
continued it's third session today. The
prosecution closed it's case early today
with the testimony Of one or two minor
witnesses. --s.
Much evidence was laid yesterday on
the fact that no autopsy was held and
the admission was elected that more
certain opinion as to the immediate
cause Of the death could be given if the
autopsy had been held. However, the
physicians testified most positively that
it was their professional opinion that
the blows and nothing else had contrib
uted to his death. The medical wit
nesses also belittled any possible, effect
Of the treatment Branch received after
the fight, and gave it as their opinion
that mo treatment could have saved his
life. ~ .- -
The absence Of an autopsy was ex-
Of the fact that Branch g father refused
his permission.
First Witness Today.
Surgeon r. M. Mccormick was the
first witness called today. On cross
examination by Mr.. Munroe, counsel fol
Meriwether, Surgeon Mccormick said
that an autopsy might have developed
cause Of death existing prior to the
fight and that it might have indicated
more clearly the definite cause Of
death. He added, however, that his con
victions were that the bruises Branch
had received in the fight had caused the
death.
Surgeon Mccormick was examined
very rigidly by Admiral A. H. McCor
mick of the court, the object being tt

FATAL SHOOTING
IS DEEP MYSTERY
Oscar Nelson of Sioux Falls Is
Victim of Attempted AS
sassination.
Special to The Journal.

Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 24.-The city
and county authorities are Investigate
ing case Of attempted assassination,
the victim being Oscar Nelson, young
man. He was shot three times in
mysterious manner and is now lowering
between life and death in the city hos

1t is supposed he was shot at Sioux
Falls, and while wounded and dazed,
walked distance Of nearly two miles
to the home of his brother, Louis Mel
son, who lives on farm northeast OF
town, where he took refuge, in barn.
He was found a short time later by
men employed on the farm. The wound
ed man was unconscious most Of the
time. In lucid interval he was asked
by his brother who had shot him. He
replied vaguely, "You know where"
This is all that can be learned in ex-
PLANTATION of the shooting. ~
One bullet struck the fleshy part of
one of his legs, another pierced the
temporal bone and lodged in tissue
protecting the brain, and the third fat
tened itself against bone in the fore
head, making an<ugly wound.

SENATOR'S FIND
PRESIDENT FIRM
Elkins, Aldrich and Foraker Fail
to Brighten Roosevelt from
Rate Plan.
By w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Nov. 24.-President
Roosevelt continues to stand pat on the
railroad rate question. Within the past
forty eight hours he has been waited
upon by Senators Aldrich,. Elkins and
Foraker, who have intimated to him
that he will break up the republican
party if he insists on his railroad posi-
ton. He replied that he is standing
out for q moral issue upon which COM
promise would be impossible.
All this compromise talk, Of which so
much has been heard lately, has come
from the railroad people and not from
the president.
Efkins, Aldrich and Foraker wanted
the president to revise the rate section
Of his message, but he informed them
that the message has already been
printed and given over to the press as
sociations for distribution.
Senator Foraker now says, rejecting
the railroad view of the situation. that
the senate will settle down for a winter
Of debate. He says he hopes the de-
bate will educate the people away from
the president 8 position, and he init
mates clearly that he can never consent
to support the president IS views.

$4,000 AND A KISS
AS DOCTORS REWARD
Journal Special Service.

journal Special Service.
Memphis, Tenn, Nov. 24.-Ten thou
sand dollars and kiss from a leading
society woman is the reward given to
Dr. Heber Jones, president of the Mem
phis board Of health, in recognition of
his successful efforts in keeping the
city free from yellow fever during the
recent visit of the scourge to the south
ern states.
The check was the result of sub
scription list taken up by influential
citizens, who quickly secured $4,000.
The kiss was not on the program for
the formal presentation, which occurred
yesterday afternoon. The society wom-
an was Mrs. James s. Robinson, wife
of the millionaire pharmacist. Follow
ing the presentation of the check, she
walked up to the physician, and with
out a word of warning, kissed him
squarely upon the lips.
The act took DR.. Jones by surprise,
but he soon regained his composure.
