INFANTICIDE.
Body of New Born Babe Found
in Branch in East Butler.

w ~ ottbit tti Gooa SubOts
Quite a sensation was created in
Butler Tuesday morning when Is was
reported that the dead body OF an
infant was found in the branch which
runs through the east part Of the
city.
Sheriff Morris, City Marshal Mccain
and a number OF others went to the
place designated and found the body
OF an infant which had been born
only a few hours. Il was taken to
the sheriff's Office and Coroner DR..
W. II. Allen, Of Rich Hill, was noti-
fed and came to Butler on the noon
train. A jury was impaneled and an
inquest held. DR.. Renick testified
that he had at the request OF Coroner
Allen made a post norton examina-
tion and that from the condition of
the lungs he was satisfied that the
child Yves dead before the body was
placed in the water.
Several witnesses were examined
but nothing definite WAS brought out
to indicate the identity OF the party
or parties guilty Of this crime. There
are circumstances that strongly point
to a dusky damsel as the unnatural
mother, but no direct testimony to
iasten the guilt upon her.
The jury's verdict was in conform
ity to the facts stated above.

RUSSIAN IRON MASTERS MAKE
PLAIN STATEMENT OF FACTS
TO MINISTRY.
SAY THAT NO REPREssIvE MEAS
UREs WILL END THE PRESENT
- NATIONAL MOVEMENT. ~

st. Petersburg, February 1.-THE
Society of Russian Iron Masters, rep
resenting $500,OOO,OOo of capital, has
memorialized M. Witte, president of
the committee of ministers on the
labor question, pointing out that the
attitude of the people is warning
"that no repressive measures will end
the deeply rooted national movement
Of the Russian people" @t =.
The Iron Masters further declare
that normal relations between the
workmen and their employers are only
possible with system of government
based on justice and with participa-
ton of both employers and employed
in the legislation for equality for all
before law, inviolability of the domi-
cile, the right to hold meetings and
strike protection for workers against
attacks of strikers, freedom of speech
and press, and universal compulsory
education. No serious disorder is re-
ported anywhere in Russia today.
