WOMAN is HANGED.
Mrs. Mary Rogers Expiates Crime of
Murder of Her Husband-Gover-
nor Refuses to Interfere.

Windsor, VT, Dec. 9.-Without a
tremor and without a word, Mrs.
Mary Mabel Rogers on Friday
marched to her death on the gallows
at the state prison here and paid the
penalty of numbering her husband,
Marcus Rogers, at Bennington, on Au-
gust 13, 1902. To all appearances,
Mrs. Rogers was the calmest person
in the chamber of death. She faced
her end with the same stoical indiffer-
ence that had marked her demeanor
ever since her arrest, more than three
years ago. Greatly to the relief Of
those officials who were assisting in
executing the sentence, Mary Rogers
last hour was remarkably free from
narrowing incidents. 1t had been
feared that the woman's wonderful
nerve would desert her at the final
moment and that she would be carried
to the scaffold in state of collapse.
Instead, however, Mrs. Rogers met
death bravely.

k....! i@A. - HARTMAN.
Ownel Of Equitable Tells OF Halfway
Mag,,ate's Effort to Force Him
to Sell Shares.

New York, Dec. 13.-Thomas F..
Ryan appeared before the insurance
Investigating committee and told what
q. II. Hartman dill and threatened to
do when he demanded that Mr.. Ryan
concede to him a share in the control
of the Equitable Assurance society last
June. Mr.. Ryan assured The commit
tee that he had meant no tlisrespect by
his former refusal to disclose their
conversations, and said that he had
determined TO answer the questions to
which he had refused replies on Fri.
Gay last because District Attorney
Jerome said he ought TO do SO.
II. Ryan's version of villa; NJ. .Har-
riman demanded and what he threat
ened to do upon the refusal of his le-
mands, was in substance as follows:
That Hartman demanded one-half
of the 502 shares of the stock of the
Equitable Life assurance society
Which Mr.. Ryan had purchased from
James H. Hyde and which gave Mr..
Ryan control of the property.
That Hartman threatened. unless he
was conceded this share in the control
of the soaiet.;, to exert his political and
all other influences against Mr.. Ryan
and his project.
lat Hartman declared there prob.
ably would be legislative action. and
that in that even his influence would
be important
That Hartman demanded the right
10 name two OF five trustees to vote
the controlling stock in the election
of directors OF the society.
In reply to repeated questions by
CHARLES r. HUGHES, counsel of the
committee, Mr.. Ryan stated that Mr.
Hartman did not threaten that there
should be legislative action unless he
was given share in the Equitable
control, but said tE,re probably would
be such action. Neither dil Mr.. Har.
riman threaten any action by an Of
fcer of the government.

Williams, who pleaded guilty to the
murder of his wife and five children
a week ago, was sentenced to death
Friday at Independence. McWilliams'
crime was one of the most shocking in

dashed out the brains of his wife and
the babe in her arms with hammer.
and called his other children to him
one by one, numbering them in the

he has given is "that they were better
off out of the way" In pronouncing
the sentence. Judge Platt broke down
and wept.
