Kansas City, Dec. 15.-Louis B.
Sternberg, a grocer at Fourth street
and Walker avenue, in Kansas City,
Kan, was killed and his wife, Mrs.
Hattie Sternberg, was fatally injured
by unknown robbers, who attacked
them and robbed them in their store
last night. The victims of the outrage
were not found until ~ hours later.
An open can of sardines on a cunter, a
long iron bolt and a bloody meat
cleaver near the bodies of Mr.. and Mrs.
Sternberg supply the evidence of how
the crime was committed. 1t is be-
lieved that the robbers asked for the
sardines and as the grocer placed the
open box before them, they struck him
GOWN with the iron bolt and then beat
his head into pulp. The robbers then
entered the living apartments back OF
the store and attacked Mrs. Sternberg
with the meat cleaver. They split open
her head and knocked out one of her
eyes. besides inficting several brutal
wounds on her body. She cannot live
drought the night.

BARNETT AND BROWN SPEND FIRST
SUNDAY In SAN FRANCISCO PRISON

San Francisco, Dec. 15.-Closely
watched in their respective cells, past
which every few minutes a fiOOrman
walked, Walter J. Bartnett and j. Dali
zeII Brown spent their first Sunday in
the city prison. 1t was Browns sew
enth DAY behind the bars, and Bart
nett's second.
The difference in the demeanor of the
two which has characterized them
since their first arrest was especially
noticeable today. Brown, outwardly
imperturbable as ever, smoked and
read necessarily. No sooner had he
finished one cigar than he lighted an
other and newspapers and magazines
went down in quick order before his
voracious reading. His only visitor
during the day was his son
BARNETT Losing Nerve.
Bartnett was as nervous as girl
graduate on commencement day. He
fumed over the darkness of his cell,
which prevented his reading with any
degree of comfort, and held conference
after conference with his attorneys.
DESPITE the fact that he declared he
had had a good nights sleep, he looked
haggard beyond anything he had pre-
viously shown, and seemed almost on
the verge of a nervous breakdown.
Although he did not saw so. it was
evident today that BARNETT, following
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1907-12-16

the lead of David F. Walker. the late
president of the bank. will try to
throw upon the shoulders of Brown the
burden of responsibility for the COM
pany's tangled affairs. This was
brought out in his reply TO questions
regarding the $4,000 which, it was
stated on the authority of Bank Com
missioner John c. Lynch, Bartnett had
drawn out three days before the bank
closed its doors.
IF any such sum was drawn in my
name" said Bartnett, Il did not re-
ceiVe a cent of it. ] know nothing
about the matter If it was drawn out.
and my name entered in the books as
having received it, somebody has COM
mitted a further crime. / drew no
amount whatever from the bank at
any time as indicated in the state
ment.'
Attorney Oscar Cooper representing
BARNETT, said today that Bartnett will
tomorrow demand that his preliminary
examination be held forthwith, and
that he will call on the district attor-
ney to produce one scintilla of evidence
connecting him in any way with en-
bezzlement.
Brown declined to say anything re-
garding his case today, declaring that
ne had nothing TO add to previous in
terviews. He repeated his assertion
that he still expects to obtain bail

Washington, Dec. 15.-Senators Tel
Ter, Curtis and LaFollette, composing
the committee which was authorized to
Investigate the affairs of the Kickapoo
Indians, will soon submit to the sem
ate a report giving the names of sew
eral persons who are alleged to have
dealt fraudulently with the Kickapoos
who emigrated to Mexico and who dis
posed of their lands at Shawnee, Okla
The report mentions a clique known as
the Chapman rimes-Connie people, q"
and says that their conduct in securing
the valuable lands owned by the Mexi-
can Kickapoo Indians was criminal and
brutal in the extreme. 1t is recon-
mended that a special attorney shall
be appointed. who shall act under the
direction of the department of justice
in entering suits to set aside all deeds
to Kickapoo lands.
Acts Committed in Mexico.
The alleged criminal acts of the men
mentioned in the report appear to be
very hard to deal with, in the opinion
of the committee, for the reason that
most of them were committed in Mex
leo. Concerning the doings of the
Chapman-G rimes-Connie people, the
report says:
"Outrages were shamelessly perpe-
trated by them. and their conduct has

never been equalled in the history of
any dealings to secure lands from the
American Indians. The names of the
Indians were Wilfully and deliberately
forged TO the deeds claimed to have
been taken in Mexico. Two or three
instances are sufficient to show to what
extremes they went. They had all the
leading members of the tribe or head
men of the tribe arrested and thrown
into jail.
Deeds Forged.
"They then took a large number of
Indians by force and under guard of
policemen to the Guajardos house in
MuzquiZ. where they urged the Indians
to sell their lands. which the Indians
declined to do, telling them invariably
that they did not desire to sell their
lands, and under no circumstances
would they sign any papers; yet these
people claim to have deeds executed at
the GuajardOs house by the Indians.
The Indians all say that they did not
sign, and the Indian Interpreters used
upon the different oct asioEs each say
that the Indians did not sign their
names, touch the pen, or authorize any
one to sign their names or touch the
pen for them"
The committee will request that it be
continued in existence until such time
as its members shall consider that the
grievances of the Kickapoos in ques-
ton are receiving proper attention.

Old Point Comfort, Va, Dec. 15.-The

The president is expected to arrive in
Hampton Roads on the MayfioWer
shortly after d. III. His coming will
be timed as near that hour as possible,
without preceding it, for salutes can
not be fired before o'clock under the
navy regulations.
From the time the presidents yacht

Threatening weather and occasional
rain squalls marked the last day of the

wind from the west dispelled the storm

SECOND TRIAL OF
EDITOR HARDEN
Effort Will Be Made to Clear
Count Kuno Won MoItke of
DeteStabIe Practices.

Berlin, Dec. 15.-The effort of Count
Kuno Won Moltke to vindicate himself
i'm the trial which resulted from accusa-
lions made by MaximIiian Harden,
editor of Die Zukunft. having failed
before the minor court, the case will
now be taken up by the states attor-
ney before a criminal bench of five
judges.
The second trial of Herr Harden will
begin tomorrow and fresh revelations
are awaited with tense expectancy by
the public, because it is believed that
much new testimony will be brought
out concerning the sO-called camarilla
surrounding the emperor. Prince
Philip Zu Gutenberg, Count Won Molt-
ke's divorced wife, Frau ven EIbe, and
her son, Lieutenant Won Kruse, are
among the witnesses who will be
called. 1t is by no means certain that
the judges will allow the testimony to
take a range wide enough to elicit po-
litical secrets of the court or anything
that may touch directly the person of
the emperor.
Reason for New Trial.
The causes that have brought about
a new trial by the ministry of Justice
are somewhat obscure, but it has been
regarded by the sober part of the COM
munity that Count Won Moltke was not
well supported in the first trial and
that the testimony was not sufficiently
limited to the legal issues.
The powerful classes have felt that
they were compromised by the pro-
ceedings and verdict of the lower court
The officers of the corps resented the
broad assertion against the morality
and honor of the army, and strong
royalists felt that the principle of mon
archy had lost prestige. The conser-
vatives generally regarded the country
as having been damaged in foreign
eyes.
Would Not Compromise.
Whatever may have been the con-
sideraticns, the ministry of justice
simply wiped out the findings of the
magistrate and took UP the affair as
though it had never been tried before
nstituting proceedings against Herr
Harden for having criminally wroneed
Count Won Moltke. Efforts have been
made at the eleventh hour to compro-
mise the case. but Herr Harden de-
clined TO sign the declaration demand
ed by Won Moltke. The latter will be
represented by DR.. Sello. one of the
most distinguished advocates of the
German bar. in addition to the highest
states attorney of the Berlin court.

John NJ. Lyon Wings Dale
Whetmore for Resisting
Arrest.
DIFFERENT VERSIONS GIVEN

WITH WIFE-BEATING.
DIFFERENT VERSIONS GIVEN

Dale Whetmore, a former Pullman
conductor on the Salt Lake route, and
son of banker in Dayton, o., was
shot by Policeman John NJ. Lyon early
yesterday morning in front of the Fall
staff saloon on South State street, near
the corner of Second South street.
Whetmore was taken to St. Marks
hospital, where it was found that his
wound was not serious. The police
mans bullet had entered the fieshy
part of Whetmore's leg, near the hip.
According to the explanation of the
and his wife were on State street
about 3 o'clock yesterday morning
Mrs. Whetmore appealed to the police
man to arrest her husband, alleging
that he had beaten her. Policeman
Lyon then ordered WhetmOre to go
with him to police headquarters. This
the man refused to do, saying that he
would not allow any policeman to take
him to Jail. Policeman Lyon then
drew his revolver. Seeing this, Whet-
more appeared to quiet down and told
Lyon that he would go with him if he
would put the weapon back into his
pocket. This the policeman immediate
ly did. But the revolver was no sooner
out of sight than WhetmOre advanced
to attack Lyon. The policeman again
quickly drew his pistol and fired.
Whatever may have been the trOu-
BILE between the man and his wife, it
disappeared with this turn of affairs.
Mrs. Whetmore, weeping frantically
rode in the patrol wagon with her hus-
band to the emergency hospital at pO-
lice headquarters, and was not dis
posed to commend the action of the
policeman.

FUNSTON HEARS REMARKABLE STORY
FROM FEDERATION OF LABOR PEOPLE

Goldfeld, New, Dec 15.-Today a
delegation from the American Fedora
ton of Labor called uDon General
Funston, who is continuing his inves-
tigation of conditions here with a view
of determining the necessity for the
presence of federal troops in Goldfield.
Remarkable Statement.
These gentlemen made the most re-
markable statement I have yet heard, "
said General Funston. in an interview
with the representative of the Asso-
ciated Press tonight. Their statement
is that for months they have lived in
constant fear. They have considered
It necessary for their self-pTOtectiOn to
20 armed at all times and have been
compelled to avoid personal contact
with members of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners I'm order to prevent Sc
rious trouble. This condition of affairs,
they have told me, obtained until the
arrival of the United States troops,
sinee when the conditions have been
greatly changed"
General Funston stated that he con-
sidered that this statement of the con-
ditions came from men who have been
in better position TO know the real
situation than any others who have
talked to him since his arrival.
In view Of the facts CLEANED today,
General Funston said that there is lit
tie possibility Of the troops here leav-
ing within ten days. and on his recon-
mendation at least half of the number
now here viii be detained by the
Washington authorities.
Funston May Stay Awhile.
General Funston VIII not leave Cold
field before Tuesday, and may stay
longer.
Governor Sparks today sent a long
communication TO Washington stating
in detail his position in relation 10 the
troops, and making correction of some
omissions in the original call for
troops.
Information in regard to the coming
of trains bearing strike breakers can
not be obtained.
Individual Grievances.
Denver. Col, Dec. 15.-When Acting
Secretary Kirwan of the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners was told of the IN
