General wood Explains killing of Moro
Women and Children.

Washington. March 15.-A cable
gram from General Wood regarding
criticism of the recent battle Of Mount
Dajo on the Island of Jolo, together
with correspondence between the presi-
dent and Secretary Taft on the subject,
have been made public. General
Woods cablegram was in answer to
one sent to him at the direction of
Secretary Taft, who called attention to
the criticisms of s'vanton slaughter of
Moros'' and asked him to send all the
particulars. General Woods reply de-
nies that there was an wanton killing,
and says q considerable number OF
women and children were killed in the
fight because they were actually in the
works when assaulted; that Moro
women wore trousers and that children
were used as shields The reply was
sent by Secretary Taft TO the president
with a note in which the secretary says
General Woods cablegram seems to
him to show most clearly that the un-
fortunate loss of life was wholly un-
avoidable, to which the president re-
piled that General Woods answer, sis,
of course, entirely satisfactory"

HE'LL SEE ABOUT 1T.
sheriR Richardson of Allen County on
Warpath.

Sheriff H. A. Richardson Of Allen
county is in Topeka today to see At
torney General Coleman, and square
himself for his alleged violation OF the
serve his time out of jail. Mr.. Coleman
was out of town, and Sherin Richard
son explained his case to Assistant At
torney General Jackson.
Mr.. Jackson was convinced that a
mistake had been made, and an injus-
tice done Sheriff Richardson, and the
probability is that Attorney General
Coleman will have to go back on his
reprimand.
Sheriff Richardson lays the blame
for the whole. thing on Assistant Attor-
ney General Evans, who was appoint
ed in that county by Mr.. Coleman. He
said this morning:
Mr. Evans is a young lawyer, who
doesn't have very good judgment, I
think. He never had a case down
there until he was appointed assistant
attorney general. After he made these
charges against me- and wrote a letter
to Attorney General Coleman com
planning of my conduct, went to him,
and showed him how he was wrong,
and he promised to write another letter
retracting his former statements. Sub
sequently he told me that he had writ
ten such a letter of retraction. At the
Office Of the attorney general no such
letter has been received Hence Mr..
Coleman went ahead, sent his COM
newspapers.
Now the facts of the case are that
this prisoner, Ernest Brown, was con-
victed of selling liquor, and sentenced
to serve 12O days in Jail, and pay fine
of 500 and COSTS He served the l20
days, paid the costs, and then entered
into an agreement with the county
commissioners to pay the 500 fine in
installments after his release from jail
After receiving instructions from the
county commissioners to this effect,
released Brown from jail. This man
Evans, the assistant attorney general,
saw on the records where Brown had a
500 fine hanging over him, and know
ing that he was at liberty, jumped at
the conclusion that I was allowing him
to run at large. He rushed to the
newspapers there in lola and gave
them the story. The Record refused
to print It.
Evans has since retracted all these
staten ents, and now wants the thing
hushed up, but I propose to see it
through. I want vindication from the
attorney general, and want the public
to know the facts"

LOCKED HIS WIFE IN.

and Himself

New York, March 15.-Eouis Nosssrs
a race track man, locked his wife IN a
bath room ana while she was a prisoner
there. shot and killed Miss Stella Rey-
nolds. Of New Orleans, an actress who
was a visitor at their home and then
killed himself. Miss Reynolds. it was
said. was formerly an intimate friend
Of Nosser.
The murder and suicide was the
sequence OF a stormy scene last evening
when Miss Reynolds called at the Nos
ser home. Mrs. Nosser, it was reported,
objected to the calf and during the
argument which followed, her husband
swallowed a small quantity of laud-
anum Both women by uniting their
efforts forced him to take an emetic i'm
mediately and the poison did him no
apparent harm. Miss Reynolds then
remained with Mrs. NO9ser all night
Today while his wife was in the bath
room. Nosser turned the key and, dis
regarding protestations to be let out,
he went 20 Miss Reynolds room Their
voices, the mans threatening and the
woman's pleading, we're heard oy
the wife in the bath room. She sprang
to a telephone which ran from this room
to the office of the apartment house
and tod a maid who answered her ring,
to hurry to the apartment and release
her. The maid entered the apartment
too late to save Miss Reynolds life. As
she opened the door she heard Nosser
saving to the woman: "There Is no
use for you and I to live any longer
The best thing I can do is to Kill you
and kill myself
Nosser then shot Miss Reynolds in the
temple and himself iE the forehead,
both dying almost instantly. Miss Rey-

VISITS JAIL.
Hoch Visits A. E. Ireland in COwIey
County.

Governor HOch returned today from
his trip to Winfield, bringing with him
a bad cold which threatens to result
in a relapse into the bronchial and
lung trouble which the governor had
some months ago.
While in Winfield, Governor Hoch
called upon Arthur Ireland at the
Winfield Jail. and judging from the
way the governor talked today, he is
likely to do something very soon for
the relief of Mr. Ireland. Ireland is
the labor leader who is serving a six
months sentence for his alleged as
sault upon a "scab" machinist during
the Santa Fe strike.
What have you decided to do about
the Ireland matter % was the question
propounded to Governor Hoch today.
I'm not ready to say much about
that matter yet" replied the governor.
"T called upon him at the Jail. Mr..
ireland is rather a delicate looking
man. He IS not sick, apparently, but
he does not look especially rugged.
IT also went through that Cowley
county jail and it is bad-fuily as bad
as has been represented. The sani-
tary conditions are door. The build
ing Is foul and dirty. 1t is a dilapi-
dated old structure and looks as
though 1T was built about the time of
Ecthuselah. 1t certainly is not a very
nice place for anybody to be confined.
7 can't see how the county can per
nit such state of affairs to continue.
The fight between rival cities is of
course the cause Of it. but it is none
the less deplorable-
This Sheriff WeIfelt. against whom
custer proceedings have been com
rnenced. is an honest sort of a man. A
that he WilfNlly violated any law. If
he was guilty Of giving ireland too
much liberty. / can not believe he did
so with any idea Of breaking the law"

MIDSHlPMENS UNION.
Secretary Bonaparea Announces a Dis

Washington, March 15.=Midship-
men at Annapolis have been conspir1ng
to prevent a high standard of scholar
ship, according to the statement of
Secretary Bonaparte before the house
committee on naval affairs today. Bril-
hancy has been discouraged and a sort
Of trade union agreement to hold all
midshipmen on a dead level, so far as

committee. There has been a tendency
to place the men who barely passed

records, and anything like superiority
has been discouraged.

come suddenly they found themselves
unprepared to meet 1t. And there is
perhaps another more potent reason.
Since the mine workers announced that
a strike was probable on April / all Of
the big users Of coal. Including the rail-
roads. have been buying up all in sight
and the chances are that the operators
IN the local fields have not had the coal
on hand to meet the orders Of the To
peka dealers during the last week. One
thing Is certain, If there is about to
be a coal famine here it cannot be Iaia
to a shortage OF coal cars. We have
a plenty on our lines and the other
roads are as wen fixed. according to
our information.'
