was startled by warning rattle at his
feet. but was unable to get out Of the
way. The reptile buried its poisonous
fanGs in his ankle. Medical aid was
secured as soon as possible. BY the
time doctors arrived his leg was swol-
len to twice its normal size, and his
sufferings have been intense. New.
berry is afflicted with a weak heart
action, and this complication makes
his condition much more serious.
Senator Newberry gained wide
prominence in Iowa as the father Oh

Legislature. He also took an active
part in other legislation and was cont
sidered as one Of the strong men OF
the senate.

TAFT INVITED TO SPOKANE.
Secretary May Go There to offse
Fairbanks Sentiment.

Spokane Wash, July 31.-William
H Taft. secretary of the war depart
ment. has ben invited by the Spokane
chamber of commerce to pass day in
this city on his trip thru the north
west and Puget Sound country the lat
ter part of August, and it is given out
by L. G.. Monroe, secretary, that it is
more than likely Mr. Taft will include
Spokane in his itinerary. Republicans
in this part of the country who are
friendly to the secretary Of war will
supplement the invitation with a re-
quest that he stop off at Spokane the
idea in view being not to let the dele
gates to the national convention get
too much Fairbanks into their heads.
Mr. Fairbanks visited Spokane recent
ly, as did "Tama Jim" Wilson, Secre-
tary Garfield and Forester Pinchot and
parties, and, while politics was not dis
cussed. the general impression is that
the way is being paved for Taft. Sec
retary Wilson gave it out fiat that
President Roosevelt will not be a cam
didate to succeed himself in office.

Judge Robbins vacstes His Bench in
Celebrated Trial, Because Of Alle-
cation That He Was Prejudiced =
Action Comes as Complete Surprise.

Georgetown, KY, July 31.-Special
Judge Robbins vacated the bench to-
day In the Caleb Powers murder trial.
following the filing of an affidavit al
leging prejudice.
The affidavit alleged that Robbins,
prejudiced, could not give Powers a
fair trial. The judge took up each
allegation and denied specifically that
they were true, but said that 1t was
too late to mar his record as judge
by sitting in a case when he was ac-
cused of unfairness. He said the
statement to the effect that he had said
after the last trial, that they were all
guilty and should be hanged, was ut
.terly false. Breathless silence was
maintained in the crowded court room
while the Judge read his opinion. His
vacating Of the bench came as COM
plete surprise to the spectators. AS
he left the bench, the people rose in
their seats and began 81 disturbance,
so they had to be subsided by the sher-
if. The attorneys are now trying to
agree on another judge.

Him From Averting Wreck.
Worthwhile, Mich, July S1.-Dean
Perkins, agent and operator for the
t,ere Marquette railroad at the little
village of Salemn, near which the Iona
excursion train and local freight col
lided July 20, killing thirty-two and in
juring 100 people, and where the trains
were supposed to have met, furnished
a feature OF the morning session when
the inquest into the wreck was re-
sumed today.
Describing his duties, he said that In
addition to telegraphing at Salem he
looks after the mail, delivering it at
the postoffice, sells tickets, attends TO
switch lamps and looks after freight
and baggage. When the special train
went thru Salem he was at the post
office arriving back at the station per-
haps three or four minutes after the
train had gone thru. 1t has been con-
tended in some quarters that If the dis
patcher had been sufficiently alive to
the situation he might have stopped
the excursion train at Salem and
averted wreck, despite misreading OF
their poorly written orders by the
freight train crew, which was the
cause Of the wreck. Today's evidence
indicated this was an impossibility be-
cause there was no operator at Salem
when the excursion passed.

attempted to blow out his brains while
the inquest over the young Chicago
actress was being held.
This last act in the long train OF
circumstances which surround the puz-
zling death of the young girl has gi7-
EN- rise to the theory that perhaps
Laura Matthews did not meet death
by her own hand, but. instead, was
lured to her death on the mountain
side by murderer who was cunning
enough to make his work look like SUI
eide
This opinion is held by C. A. Coey,
who last night declared that Miss
Matthews had probably fallen the vic
tim of murder plot.
Il do not believe that she ever killed
herself I can't believe it. She was
murdered. l am sure" said Mr.. Coey

Mr.. Coey declares further that he
does not know Rumbaugh that he
never heard of him and that he could
advance no reason why the young man
should attempt his own life following
the strange death of Miss Matthews.
The dispatches from Colorado Springs
stated positively that Rumbaugh, be-
fore his attempt at suicide. had told
the police that he knew Coey in Chi
cago. where he also had met Miss
Matthews.
