TAGGART CASE IS
NEARLY FINISHED
EVIDENCE LIKELY TO BE IN BY
TUESDAY NOON.
No Limit to Arguments Except That
Judge insists That Cast Must
Close This Week.

Wooster, o., Sept 3.-That the Tag
CART case will reach the arguments by
Tuesday noon seems certain, as the at
torneys on both sides stated during the
day that they could see no reason why
the evidence should not be all in by
noon Tuesday. Judge Eason, 1t is un-
understand that he does not expect to
place limit of time to be consumed in
the arguments, but that az new term
of court is to start Monday of next
week he will insist that the case be fin
ished during the week.
1t had been announced that Major
Newberry of Pittsburg, who was 20
give evidence that was expected to be
OF very great Importance to Capt. Tag
CART, would not be here. Major New
berry however, reached here this af-
ternoon, and 1t is said will likely be the
first witness to be called Monday morn
ing.
Mrs. Taggart's attorneys have asked
that Fanny Everly, the little girl who
told of peeping through the keyhole as
to Mrs. Taggart and Billy Taggart, be
recol;ed or that her evidence be set
aside They claim that it has not been
sI5stantiated.
Mrs. Taggart attended services at St.
James Episcopal church this morning
and took communion. This afternoon,
in company with her sister, Mrs.
Shic'ts, and James Shields, sh, drove
to Orrville, where they called en- Mrs.
Taggart's friends. The visit was made
to please Mrs. Shields, who desired 10
see WI ere Mrs. Taggart lived willie in
Orr lie, and also to see the country
home of Capt. Taggart's parents.
Capt Taggart, as has been his prac-
tice during the trial, spent the day at
his home with his parents. A report
reached the city this evening from Co
lumbus that Capt. Taggart was so con-
fident of being awarded the custody of
the boys that he has partly arranged
for residence at Columbus, where he
Is to be stationed, SO as to have home
where he can see that the youngsters
are sent to school and properly trained.
Mrs. Taggart is equally sure of being
given the care Of the boys and she has
arranged to make her home for some
time to come with Surgeon Vose and
wife of Chicago, where the little chaps
can be sent to private school.

Thought to Be Lesssned hwy Restric.
tions on immigration.
Berlin, Sept. 3.-Dr, Nocht, harbor
physician for the government at Ham
burg, in reply to inquiries concerning
cholera, tonight telegraphed as follows
"Trans-shipment of Russian emf
grants having been suspended at Ham
burg, further cholera infection is i'm
probable.
THE room companion of the first
case has light attack. but otherwise
all the emigrants are healthy.
THE emigrants due to sail last
Thursday on the steamer Moltke for
New York were landed, and since then
have been under medical observation.
All are Healthy. The drinking water
and the So nitary arrangements here are
faultless, and, consequently, an epidem-
ic is unlikely.
Single instances, naturally, in spite
of the greatest care, cannot always be
prevented, but no danger exists for see
traffic. l am convinced that all the
means for opposing cholera are in use.
We are going to meet the future with
tranquility, and we hold that Ameri-
cans have no grounds for disquietude." !"
The opinion is expressed in Berlin
that the United States seaboard has
more to fear from emigrants shipping
at Trieste than from German ports, as
cholera is in Austrian Poland"

AT LAST
The Mikado Sends Congratulations to
President Roosevelt.


Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 3.-President
Roosevelt today received from the Jap
anese emperor cable of congratula-
tions for his part in the peace negotia-
tions. In was really a reply, and a
very belated one at that, to the mes
sage that the President conveyed to
Baron Komura on the day that the en-
voys agreed to come to terms. In ad-
dition to being somewhat late in send
ing, the message of the mikado is con-
sidered just trife lukewarm in enthu-
siasm. 1t is as follows:
Toxic, Sept. g.
ITO the President: | have received
with qualification your message of con-
gratulations conveyed through our
plenipotentiaries, and thank you warm
ly. 1t is to your disinterested and un-
remitting efforts in the interests of
peace and humanity attach the high
est value which is their due, and assure
you of my grateful appreciation of the
distinguished part you take in the es-
tablishment of peace based upon prin-
ciples essential to the permanent well
fare and tranquility of the far east.

that ushers took him for new conner

GALBRAITn EXECUTED
FIRST HANGING UNDER NEW Law

Murderer Of Wife and Child eulsers
Extreme Penalty Of the Law-onIy
Few Witnesses Present.
Denver, March IA Canon City
dispatch last night says:
Azel D. Galbraith was executed at
s o'clock tonight for the murder Of his
wife and son at Russell Gulch last
year. He walked to the trap with a
firm step and showed no fear Of the
fate he met. His neck was broken
and death was practically instanta-
neous. Every provision Of the law
governing executions was observed
and there were only the witnesses al
lowed by law.
Not since Friday night, June 26,
1896. when Warden Cleghorn exc
cuted Deonocio Romero, Albert Noble
and William Holt, for the murder of
Night Watchman John Solomon of
Trinidad, had a legal hanging taken
place in Colorado until tonight.
Galbraith exhibited remarkable
courage during the terrible ordeal he
was called upon to face. His walk
to the place Of execution was firm and
elastic and he manifested but little
concern, apparently having made up
his mind to meet his fate brayely. He
was given an opportunity to speak
and he said that he committed the
crime for which he was about to pay
the penalty and that strong drink
caused his downfall. He warned 9TH
ers of its fearful consequences.
When he finished his hands were
tied behind him, the black CAP was
adjusted. the rope placed about his
neck. and he stepped upon the trap,
which in few seconds launched him
into eternity. The weight dropped
about eight feet and the neck OF the
prisoner was broken. resulting prac-
tically in instant death. After few
minutes DR.. 4. ID. Palmer. the peniten-
tiary physician, examined the body
and announced that life was extinct.
1t was cut down and taben away to be
prepared for burial.
The execution was witnessed by
Warden John Cleghorn: Thomas Cody,
sheriff of Gilpin county; James Bea-
man, former sheriff of Pueblo county;
A. Sandberg, sheriff of Clear Creek
county; T. ID. Palmer, penitentiary
physician; Rev. Mr.. Lucas, chaplain
OF the penitentiary; William Gran
ger. deputy warden; Thomas Scott,
yard master; Clarence Cleghorn. over

Sullivan Accuses Morgan

Denver, March 7.-Daniel M. Sulli-
van, postmaster at Cripple Creek, who
is accused by Senator Morgan of an
attempt at bribery, makes the follow
ing statement:
This man Morgan approached me
several days ago and told me in the
presence of witnesses that he was
anxious to vote for Governor Adams
because Peabody had failed to make
a case. I told him that / had always
believed he was tied up with the Pea
body crowd, but he vehemently denied
1t. He pleaded with me to take him
to Mr.. Herbert, and, although l
thought he was not honest with us,
did it. Fortunately was in the room
and heard him solicit the bribe and
heard Mr.. Herbert emphatically refuse
to listen to his proposition.
"If Mr.. Morgan got this money, as
he said, on March End, then why did
he wait until to-day before he made
his statement public? That is ques-
ton he will have to answer before
we are through with him, just as we
will force him to tell what he got for
bringing these charges"

THE TRICKS.
Coffee Plays on Some.

It hardly pays to laugh before you
are certain of facts, for it is some
times humiliating to think Of after
wards.
when 1 was a young girl was a
lover of coffee but was sick SO much
the doctor told me to quit and l did
but after my marriage my husband
begged me to drink it again as he
did not think it was the coffee caused
the troubles.
$50 1 commenced it again and con-
tinued about 6 months until my stom-
ach commenced acting bad and chok-
ing as II I had swallowed something
the size of an egg. One doctor said
1t was neuralgia and Indigestion.
"On" day l took a drive with my
husband three miles in the country
and drank cup of coffee for dinner.
l thought sure would die before got
back to town to doctor. was drawn
double in the buggy and when my
husband hitched the horse to get me
out into the doctors Office, misery
came up in my throat and seemed
to shut my breath off entirely, then
left all in a flash and went to my
heart. The doctor pronounced it ner-
vous heart trouble and when 1 got
home l was SO weak I could not sit
up.
My husband. brought my supper to
my bedside with nice cup of hot cof-
fee but said: Take that back, dear,
will never drink another cCp of cof-
fee II you gave me everything you are
worth, for it is just killing me- He
and the others laughed at me and
said:
THE idea of coffee killing any
body
"'Well.' I said, it is nothing else
but coffee that is doing it,
I'm the grocery one day my hus-
band was persuaded to buy a box Of
Postum which he brought home and
1 made it for dinner and we both
thought how good it was but said
nothing to the hired men and they
thought they had drunk coffee until
we laughed and told them. Well we
kept on with Postum and it was not
long before the color came back to
my cheeks and got stout and felt
as good as ever did in my life. I
have no more stomach trouble and l
know owe it all to Postum in place
of coffee.
my husband has gained good health
on Postum, as well as baby and I, and
We all think nothing is too good to say
about it." Name given by Postum

Washington. March THE hearing
In the Kansas-Colorado suit was re-
Bumed yesterday morning before Com
missioner Richardson. Ex-Governor
Brodie of Arizona, Joseph L. B. Alex
hnder, an attorney of Phoenix, Arizona,
and F. H. Newell, chief engineer Of tho
reclamation service, were examined.
Ex-Governor Brodie testified that he
went to Arizona twenty years ago,
when 1t had but about 5000 inhabi-
tants, and at a time when there was
very little development in the terri
tory; that during the last twenty years
over $4,000 acres of land have been
irrigated and several hundred Thousand
acres more could be added to the irri-
gated area: that it was necessary to
preserve the present development. and
to secure any future development in
the territory that all waters should be
used for irrigation purposes.
Mr.. Alexander corroborated the state
ments made by Governor Brodie.

own way

John Chase, stage driver between
Saratoga and Dillon, Wyoming, is the
owner of shepherd dog of more than
ordinary canine intelligence. Recently
Chase was snowbound in the noun
tains. His horses were down and night
was coming on. Not thinking the dog
would understand, but being desperate,
Chase told the brute to go back on the
trail to a miners cabin and summon
assistance. The dog trotted off.
reached the cabin, scratched on the
door and barked and attracted the in
mates. The dog then ran out on the
trail in the direction of his snowbound
master, and the miners were made to
understand that something was wrong.
They at once followed the dog and as
sisted Chase in getting out of the snow.
Chase would not sell the dog at any
price.

the right flank Of the Russian army
near the imperial tombs since morning,
but at this hour it appears to be less

Gates that the fighting is gradually
sweeping further and further from

New Chwang, March 6.-There is ev-
cry indication that the great japanese
movement for the development of Muk-
den has SO far met with overwhelming
success and that that stronghold Of the
Russians will prove another Sedan.
In the past few days little has been
heard from the fighting along the
strongly fortified central positions, and
1t Is believed that the Japanese center
is only required to hold its ground

northward for the purpose Of encir-
cling the Russian flanks and threaten

COLORADO LEGISLATURE

The Stephen eight-hour bill was
passed on second reading in the Sen
ate March 1st without Toll call. The
minority reports Of Senator Clayton
were voted down and the majority re-
port Of the labor committee accepted
with but two votes cast against 1t,
those of Senators John Kennedy and
b. Jefferson. Senators Morgan and De
Long, Republicans, voted for the MI
nority reports, but changed their vote
on the final issue. Senator Ballinger
broke from his party and made
speech favoring the majority report.
He denied that the Democrats were
enemies OF the eight-hour measure. and
thought there was merit in the Stephen
bill.
The anomaly Of securing all the re-
suits aimed at in the passage of bill
through its defeat will be presented in
the Senate when the finance committee
makes a report on one of Senator Tay-
lor's educational measures. The bill
In question provides for an appropria-
ton out Of which students, attending
the state educational institutions shall
be reimbursed for their railroad fare
in cases where their homes are located
more than 100 miles from the school.
The object is ,twofold: To give the
young men and women on the western
slope better opportunities for an edu-
cation in Colorado, and to build up the
state educational institutions. At a
meeting Of the Senate finance COM
mittee yesterday afternoon the bill was
given the right Of way in discussion.
No vote was taken, but the commit
tee reached tacit conclusion to kill
the bill in question, but to accomplish
Senator Taylor's purpose in another
way. This was to include in the ap-
preparation for each Institution an
amount sufficient for reimbursing the
railroad fare of all students who would
come under the provisions of Senator
Taylor's bill. The proposition met with
much favor at the hands of the COM
mittee, and there is little doubt that
1t will be received favorably by the,
Senate. There is strong feeling in
the House. also, that such measure
should pass.-Denver News.
