Since the league does not desire to

AN AWFUL STORY or CRIME.
Evidence Of Wholesale Poisoning In
Chicago for Insurance.

Chicago, Il.-The police investi-
cation into the deaths of the six mem
bers of the Vzral family have de-
veloped the fact that. a proposition to
secur money by poisoning was enter
tanned by Mrs. Rose Vzral, who was
supposed to have committed suicide
last Tuesday, and Herman Belek, the
palmist, suspected of having admins
tered poison to Martin Vzral and the
latter's four children. The evidence
that such a proposition was considered
is in the form of a letter from Mrs.
Vzral to Belek, asking that he Sc
cure money for her in return for what
she had given him, by poisoning his
own mother, who lives In Cleveland,
o. When questioned, Belek admitted
that the request was made, not only
that he should poison his mother, but
that he should take the life of his
wife by the same means. Belek's
statement Was confirmed by Mrs.
Belek, who said that she had been in
constant fear of her life because of
the Jealousy Mrs. Vzral and her daugh-
ter entertained against her.
On the strength of the letter, a war
rant embodying a direct charge of
murder against Belek and his wife
were sworn out before Judge Maxwell.
before whom they will be taken for a
hearing.

good and much that is bad in it. but
1t may be regarded as the presidents
most important state paper.
Mr.. Bryan complains that what the
president says ON the subject of goy-
eminent by injunction will not be
satisfactory to the laboring men. or
to those who respect the right of
trial by jury. The presidents stand
on child labor is commended, as is
also the position he takes ON the
elght-hour day law and the right of
the people to criticise a Judge. "Ha
pays a deserved tribute to the proe.
ress of the Japanese nation" saws
Mr.. Bryan. There will be general
disappointment at the war-like tone
OF his message where he discusses the
army and the navy, He speaks Of
the navy as the surest guarantor Of
peace which this country possesses.
Shame upon the chief executive that
he should place an instrument of.
brute force above the nations ems
OF Justice as a ~guarantor of peace"

guilty to q charge OF murder In the
first degree In the circuit court at
Houston November IL, just ono
month following the quintuple trag-

December 81. Hamilton made a full
confession to the jury, and told the
court and jurors how and why he

stood that the young mans father
will make an appeal to Gov. Folk to
grant the confessed murderer a stay,
OF execution until such time as steps
can be taken to present the case to
the governor. It has been reported
that the question OF young Hamilton's
sanity at the time of the commission
OF the terrible crime may be inquired
into. Soon after his arrest and while

exhibited symptoms of insanity.
These disappeared, however, o af-
