Linz Bros. from Lakenan &Barnes
and +. X. Jesse, she had since
learned were not the same and she
had been mistaken in them. She
said that when she testified for
Morris on a previous occasion in
this city she had a "sneaking no.
ton" that Morris scheme was not
straight.
When Morris was placed on the
stand he said he had agreed in
Dallas, Texas, to give Miss
Goodwin $25 n month to help her
pay expenses in st. Louis. He said
he did not owe her anything at
the time, but that she had done
him a favor in Dallas in turning
certain letters over to him and
seemed to need the money and he
thought he would need her as a
witness later on. He admitted
giving her $50 last Monday. He
said he thought about that amount
was due on his former agreement.
He denied the authorship Of the
letter referring TO three letters
which he had sent Miss Goodwin
to be copied, but he admitted the
authorship of other letters in his
own handwriting which also re-
ferred to three letters. He said
that the three letters referred to
were copies Of the original letters
which were secured for him from
Linz Bros. He was cross-exam-
ined at length and his memory
seemed very poor on important
dates and places.

MRS. JONES INDICATED

1t will be remembered that some
time ago quite disturbance occurred
in the Woman's Relief Corps of the
G. A. R. because one of its members
testified in favor of Senator Smoot at
the investigation and would not oin
with some of the members in a psti.
ton praying for the unseatng of Mr..
Smoot.
In order to punish the member for
having the courage of her convictions,
and for telling the plain truth, it was
sought by others to deprive her of the
office of treasurer of the corps, to
which she had previously been elect.
ed The matter was brought to the
notice of the national president of the
organization, who decided that Mrs.
Jones, the member whom it was
sought to discipline, was entitled to
hold the position, and that neither
politics or sectarian religion had any
place in the corps.
Truth congratulates Mrs. Jones on
the vindication SIZE has received.
