OB6ER OF SENTIMENT
Salt Lake HoId-Up Man Returns Vic
tins Watch on Being Told It Was
Gift from Mother.

Salt Lake City, Utah, May 2.-Three
men wearing handkerchiefs over the
lower part of their faces and armed
with big revolvers, tonight held up
James McTernay and two other men
in the Onyx Bank saloon, in the heart
of the business district, and escaped
with the money and jewelry, amount
ing to about $1,000. The hold-up occur
red about 10 o'clock, while the streets
were crowded with people.
McTerney was in the rear of the sa-
loon when the robbers entered. Two
Of them forced him to hold up his
hands, while they took all the money
in the cash drawer and the safe, and
got two watches and a diamond ring
and pin. The third robber stood guarl
at the front door. The men then male
their way out of the back door aud
escaped in the darkness. The men got
all the money McTerney had in his
possession and took his watch. He
asked that the watch be returned to
him as it was a gift to him from his
mother on his 21st birthday. The
fellow that had the watch handed it
back.

irresponsible. Letters that threaten
every form Of violence are pouring
into Boise from all over the country by
the hundreds and most of them are
directed to Gov Frank R. Gooding,
who is made largely to bear the brunt
of all the odium the celebrated case
invites. Detectives, police and friends
of the governor generally are con.
stantly on the alert to block the
blow, and at the insistance of family
and friends he has finally, and under
protest, altered the routine and move
ments of his life and work, at least

his duty Gov. Gooding may be in
no danger from any source. but he
and his friends live hourly in ex
treme fear of danger. and to them the
tragedy is ever real.

alleged confession is the basis of the

New York, May 2.-Counsel for the
defendant arranged with the district
attorneys office today for the appear
ance next Monday Of Charles S. Fair
child, former secretary of the treasury,
who in December last was indicted on
six counts charging forgery in the
third degree. The case grew out OF
what came to be known as the "Prus-
sian bond transaction" of the New
York Life Insurance company.
In this affair the New York Life was
threatened with expulsion from Prus-
sia because the Prussian government
declared that the company was car
rying industrial stocks, which the
Prussian government did not consider
the proper security for an insurance
company investment. Accordingly the
New York Life, it is alleged, charged
off it's books to the New York Security
& Trust company, of which Fairchild
was then president, as a bona fide
sale of stock to the value of many
millions of dollars of the Chicago &,
Northwestern and the Chicago, Mil
walkee & ST. Paul railroads
The trust company, however, 1t Is
alleged, charged off the sale as a loan

ONE today examined 20 witnesses fe-
garding the recent election for direc-
tors of the New York Life company,
and which has already resulted in the
arrest of George Scrugham, manager
OF the International Policyholders
committee, and two employees, on
charges of conspiracy. Tonight Mr..
Jerome declared he was perfectly sat
isfied with the work of his assistants
resulting in Scrughams' arrest, and
that he assumed all responsibility for
what had been done. Concerning the
former Scrugham arrest, the district
attorney stated that because Of earlier
experiences with the state Of Ohio ne
would never again take any chances on
the return Of a fugitive from justice
from that state so long as there is evi-
dence to hold him in New York.
It was said tonight that the federal
government through Attorney Stimson,
may cake hand in the prosecution II

tampering with the New York Life
ballot mail in the insurance election
under section 1892 of the United States
compiled statutes.

New York, May 2.-Members Of the
fashionable ST. Georges Episcopal
church at Hampstead, Long Island,
were astonished today when they
learned that their pastor, Rev. John K.
Cook, had departed and that Miss Flor
eta Whaley also had left her home
and had written letters saying she
would not return. Rev. Mr.. Cook has
been married for five years to Mrs.
Cook, who left him some time ago and
is now at her fathers home in Hart
ford.
Miss Whaley is an orphan, II years
of age, whose father, just before his
death, gave her in the special care Of
MI. Cook. Two letters have been re-
ceived from Miss Whaley. One was
written to her grandmother, with
whom the girl lived, stating that she
loved her grandmother, but she loved
Mr.. Cook better and that when the
letter was received by her she would
be Mrs. Cook. Miss Whaley left

Boise, Idaho, May 2.-Counsel for
the prosecution and the defense in the
Stuenenberg murder case have settled
down to their final preparatory work
for the trial of Haywood, the first of
the accused, which will be commenced
Thursday, next.
Rumors as to moves intending to fur
ther delay the trial are in circulation,
but the attitude of both sides indicates
that they are ready to go to the bar
for trial.
The only preliminary hearing pend
ing is motion by the defense for a
bill of particulars of the evidence by
which the state hopes to show that
Haywood conspired in the murder Of
Stuenenberg. This motion, which is
designed to secure disclosure of the
hand of the state, will be argued be
fore Judge Wood Monday, next. This

New York, May 2.-Wm. A. Brewer,
Jr, former president Of the Washing

Prosecution and Defense in Haywood Case Finishing Pre-

have reached point where they de.
cline to publicly discuss the case or
the men at bar.
It would seem that a majority Of
the community had assumed judi
cial attitude toward the celebrated
case and had disciplined itself in the
face Of it. The occasional man. free
from alignment or bias, who will dis
cuss the case openly, generally tells
you that Boise knows neither labor
unionist nor mineoWner; knows only
that cruel murder, one of long
series of shocking crimes has been
done; that it's business is to calmly
and fairly try the men who are ac-
cused; to free them if they are limo
cent; to hang them if they are proven
guilty, and to do this fearlessly.
But under the surface of calm there
is strong undercurrent of apprehen-
sion and nervousness, tragic in many
of it's aspects. Violence is the ever
present fear. The position of the
prisoners and their activity through
years of bitter labor warfare, the dis
sension over their arrest in Colorado
and removal to Idaho, the rallying of
thousands and thousands of working
men to their support and the radical
propaganda undertaken in their be-
half, together with the intense feel
ing against the Mineowners' associa-
ton and other incidents have served,
rightly Or wrongly, to make the case
in the minds and attitudes of thous-
ands contest between the classes
rather than trial for the alleged
crime of murder.
In a few minds is there belief that
, Haywood, Meyer and Pettibone, their
friends, or the men affiliated with the
labor union circles would approve
much less encourage, any account OF
violence at this time, because such an
,, act would be a fatal error. But there
is a general fear that from the ranks
of the violent radicals there may
come man or men desperate enough
| to attempt assassination or that the
agitation may give sinister sugges

as the foundation on which to build
the real life, the life of spiritual and
moral effort and achievement.
"The rich man who has done nothing
but accumulate riches is entitled to
the scantiest consideration; to the men
of real power Of discernment he is an
object rather OF contempt than of envy.
The test of fortune should be two
fold-how 1t was obtained and how
1t was spent. 1t Is with the nation as
it Is with the individual. Looking
back through history, the nation that
we respect is invariably the nation
that struggled, the nation that strove
toward a high ideal, the nation that
recognized in an obstacle something to
be overcome and not something to be
shirked.
Because in those years you had it
in you dauntlessly to do your share in
the work allotted to you, your children
and your companions rise up to call
you blessed. Who among you now
would barter the memories Of the
black years from 81 to '65 for any
gift that could be given? Not a man
among you You have won the right
to feel pride that none of your coun.
trymen can feel. and won the right
because you sought not the path OF
ease, but the path Of rough, disagree

WANTS ANOTHER BISHOP.
Episcopal Missionary Department Me
moriaIizes General Conference.


Boise, Idaho, May 2.-The second
days session of the fifth annual CON
ference of the seventh missionary de-
partment of the Episcopal church was
devoted to church matters behind
closed doors. 1t was determined to
send a memorial to the general con
ference of the church to be held at
Richmond, Va, in October, asking
for redistricting of the territory and
the appointment of another bishop.
This resolution followed a showing
made by some of the bishops respect
ing the great amount of travel in
Cured in covering their fields. Bish-
ops Funston of Idaho and Scadding
of Oregon particularly were shown to
have too much on their hands.
