N. STANTON IN SIRUGGIf
THAT SAVED THE NATION
Secretary Of War
Strong and Arbitrary Man
with Innate Love Of Power
Tho Very Man for the Posi-
sion Picked Out for Him by
the Great War President

The late Dom Piatt wrote book
containing biographical ana analytical
sketches of five men to whom, he be-
the Union. Those five men were
Abraham Lincoln. Edwin NJ. Stanton.
Salmon T.. Chase. William II. Seward
and George II. Thomas. Piatts idea
OF Lincoln differed from all other es-
Inmates of that singular man. 1t is
curious to contrast what Piatt thought
of him with what Ben Butler said OF
him. Lincoln. like Jefferson. was a
many-sided man and II is not strange
that he impressed his associates In
different ways, says writer in the
Cincinnati Enquirer. Plat did not
think him by any means saint.
Piatt was the personal friend OF
Chase and his disciple politically.
Chase left the Democratic party ear
lier than Piatt and returned TO 1t ear
lier. Both were born Democrats. both
lived Abolitionists and both died Dem
ocrais. Piatt contended that II was
the financial wisdom and skill of
Chase that enabled the Federal gov.
ernment To successfully prosecute the
war. Stewards diplomacy, according
TO Piatt. prevented the interposition
of England in behalf of the South.
but tl,at is mistake. Had no; Lin
coln taken the management OF the
Mason and Slidell AFFAIR into his own
hands. there would have been war. He
tore mp Stewards dispatch and wrote
the paper that averted war. Piatt
was not the only officer Of the army or

who believed Gen. Thomas was the
foremost soldier on the Union side.
He gave the north the first taste OF
victory and. his consummate military

Stanton and Piatt were friends and

such she is debarred from select So

er to mortgage her home to help him
in business and that he borrowed $4,000
of his mother-in-law on a note which
he allowed to become outlawed. Fer
guson took the stand in his own be-
half and declared that the income from
his business was not what his wife
claimed 1t to be.
Judge Graham yesterday granted d.
voroes to Hannah Gilman from Axel
Gilman on the ground OF cruelty and to
Lena Levin from Harry Levin on the
ground of desertion. Sarah Phillips se-

tered by the back door and, after sub
DUNG the woman, stole a purse contain

on the floor. Mrs. Hallahan screamed
for help as her assailant disappeared.

the burglar who robbed Mrs. William
Belts, at $50 Wheeler street, on Tues-
day.
Mrs. Hallahan said she had been
busy with her domestic duties and did
not notice the man, who stepped quiet
ly up to the kitchen door and attracted
her attention by coughing and beg
ging for glass of water The woman
turned to the faucet to get the drink.
Suddenly the man struck her a heavy
blow on the face. The woman was
stunned and so frightened by the sud
den shock that she could not move The
thief quickly ran into bedroom, where
he made search for valuables. AS
soon as he found the purse and rings
the intruder rushed out, throwing the
woman aside as she tried to follow
him.

BELIEVES SLAYER
SOUGHT REVENGE.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.


SPOKANE, Wash. Oct. 1s.-Rev w.
j. Hindley, who returned today from
Portland, where he accompanied Mrs
Reno Hutchinson soon after the murder
of her husband, who was secretary of
the Y. NJ c. A, brought information
which would indicate that Hutchinson
had feared for six weeks past that he
would be murdered.
In accordance with this knowledge,
Rev. Mr.. Hindley has abandoned all be-
lief that the secretary was murdered by
holdup men who were waiting for a
victim at Seventh avenue. and Howard
street
Hindley was told that two different
men had been seen running in opposite
directions from the scene of the murder
just after its commission and of the pc
culiar behavior of watch dogs in the
vicinity of the crime, but he said these
circumstances would not cause him to
deyiate from his belief that an enemy
had assassinated Hutchinson
Said Hindley: Friends of Mr. Hutch
inson are aware that his system was
shattered by some secret worry during
the last six weeks. ] have learned that
In those weeks he lost more than TWEEN
ty pounds OF weight
TS.
Hutchinson who was said to have once
made threat against Mr.. Hutchin-
son, 1t is known that he was in a West
ern Oregon city on the day of the mur-
der.
Although Mrs. Hutchinson knew
that some secret was annoying her
husband, he never confided in her the
cause OF his trouble. He may have re-
ceived anonymous letters or threats,
but kept silent. His secret died with
him..
But there is no doubt In my mind
that Mr.. Hutchinson was assassinated.
While an enemy, if he had one, may
not have committed the crime, there
are men who could have been hired to
commit It. From my experience 1 be-
lieve there are men in this city who
would commit such deed for $1,000
This may explain why a strange man
searched SO diligently for Mr. Hutch-
inson on the day he was murdered"

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.


RENO. Oct. 19-Johnnie Kay, chief
of the PiuteS, is in Reno and is calling
his followers together, 500 strong,
preparatory to invading the Walker
Lake reservation, which will be opened
to the public on October 29. The In
dians will seek to enter the reservation
before 1t is formally opened and locate
the valuable mineral grounds before
the whites are able to reach them.
Chief Kay will leave tomorrow for
the reservation for the purpose of in
forming the Indians who reside within

formulated. Kay stated tonight that
the Indians win make no warlilSe dis
play unless first attacked by the whites.
who are now lowering on the outskirts
of the reservation, preparing to make
q rush as soon as it is thrown open
There are many Indians at present re-
siding within the limits of the reser-
walton, all of whom are quite wealthy,
owning many cattle and valuable
ranches.
The question of whether an Indian
has right to own mineral ground is
involved. Attorneys are divided on the
question, but the prevailing opinion is
that Indians who are not residing on
the reservation may locate any piece of
land within it's borders
1t is anticipated that there will be
bloodshed when the Indians attempt
to enter the reservation

LOWELL DEFAULTS
TO WILMERDINC
IN FOOTBALL.
By Ror1,er Shawt1ar,.

The sub-league football contest
scheduled to take place between the
Lowell and Wilmerding elevens today
will go to the latter by default This
leaves only the Lick and Wilmerding
schools to fight for sub-league honors.
The Wilmerding athletes were any
thing but pleased when they learned
this bit of news To train hard for
over month for contest and then
be disappointed is not the pleasantest
thing in the world especially when
their chances for winning the game
were SO bright
The Lowell boys, however, are not
cutters" They stand ready to play
the industrial school boys any con-
venient time. They were forced to de-
some of the athletes in their studies
No doubt the Wilmerding athletes will
meet this challenge, but not until after
their game with Lick on the 27th.
Captain Bronagal thought 1t best to
secure a harder game for practice, so
arranged with the Oakland Polytechnic
High School boys for contest today.
The battle will be called at 10 a. m. on
the First and Linden street grounds,
Oakland, and should prove a harder
game than the one scheduled for this
side of the bay.
The final game on the 9th will
prove a surprise to many followers of
the sport. SO far the Wilmerding boys
have been conceded little where the
final honors are concerned. but have
wisely remained quiet and kept on
training. Every Saturday they have
played an out-of-town team and the ex-
perience gained from these contests
will help material in the game with
Lick.
Besides having team work down to
fine point, Wilmerding has several
individual players tu help rho team
Merchant, their fullback, is making
name for himself for his fierce line
plunges and place kicks. He is also
punter of no mean ability. His punts
this season have averaged fifty yards.
This is Merchants second year behind
the line and all those who have seen
him in action say that his style is very
much like Lick's former fullback,
Smell.
Captain Bronagal and Jack Trow-
bridge make a fine pair for the half
back positions. Bronagal has played on
several good teams during the last two
years and is thoroughly capable of di-
recting his team on the field Trow-
bridge is also a fine player For two
years he played behind the line for
the San Jose High School team, and
without doubt ne is the cleyereSt half
back in the league today, both on the
offense and defense.
Laying, quarter; Lieb, Willison and
Hauley, three crack ends, together
with Stafford and Aherns. centers;
Flynn, Springs, Holl and Van Trees,
guards, and Woodwork, ellis and Hill
lard for tackles. make up the balance
of the aggregation.
The Lick gridiron heroes have been
unfortunate getting games this sea-
son. Previous to the battle with
Lowell only two practice games were
played, and although the Tigers proved
the victors by a score of IL to 4, their
playing was not what 1t should have
been, nor was 1t up to their mark
They have the right spirit, however.
and are out every afternoon for prac-
tice. despite the fact that the final
game for the sub-league is over a week
off.
