 in the Case.

Washington, April 30.-The su. pfeme court of the United States Mon. day affirmed the decision of the SUI. preme court of Missouri in the appeal of William Spaugh, jr., under sentence of death in Reynolds county, Mo, on the charge of murdering Sheriff Polk in Iron county, Mo, while resisting arrest. It was alleged In Spaughs in terest that the sheriff of Reynolds county had sought to influence the jury that tried Spaugh by promising them front seats at Spaugh's execu- tion in case of conviction, but both the Missouri and the federal supreme courts refused to consider the charge as material and both upheld the yer dict of the trial court, which found Spaugh guilty of murder in the first degree.

P[ARY NAY ABANDON TR|P
Lack of $6o, ,ooo Endangers Pro posed Dash to the North Pole
 This Summer.
THE EXPLORER IS DEEPLY DowNcAsT
Greater Part of Money Already Sub. scribed Has Been Spent in Repair ing the Roosevelt for the Next At. tack on the Northern Ice Ficid-- Peary Confident.

New York, April 30.--Lack of about s60,000 to finance the expedition may mean the abandonment of the dash to the North pole whlca Commander Robert E. Peary has planned for this summer. The explorer, who has earned the distinction of having reach ed the 'farthest north" and who truly may be said to live for the purpose of revealing to the world the mysteries of the pole itself. is deeply downcast at the possibility that he may not be able to try again.
 This is work which I must do, great work for which I was intend ed" said Commander Peary Sunday to the Associated Press. And with confidence that his work must be helped from somewhere. he added:
 ~The money will come: somehow I feel certain of that. But if I was only assured now, what a relief it would be, and how I could concentrate all my en- ergies on the details of the expedition. Remember we were but 174 nautical miles from the goal on our last trip. It would be a pity indeed, if we could not try again.
 Peary wants to start from New York the latter part of June. His ship. the Roosevelt, which proved her worth on the last expedition, is now being prepared for the next attack on the northern ice fields. The great CT part of the $40,O0O already sub scribed will be spent in repairing the boat and s60,000 more will be needed for general expenses. The Peary Arc tic club is caring largely for the refit- ting of the Roosevelt and it has issued an appeal for contributions from the people of the country so total of s100,0 ,000 may be raised The club feels as does Commander Peary himself, that the people should share in the of permitting the public school chill dren of the country to take part in the movement has been suggested to Peary It met with his approval, but he is in doubt as to how such pro gramme could be carried out
 To this gigantic task of discovery Commander Peary implicitly believes his fellow countryment should lend their interest and support and his ab- solute confidence that he has been assigned to attain the goal expresses his conviction that he will win.
 Peary says if conditions are favor able the objects of the expedition might be accomplished in one season But he might remain north as long as three years. He was preparing, he said for long and stern battle.

\ IR|P UP JAMES RIVER
President Roosevelt and Party Spend Saturday Viewing His
 toric Spots in Locality.
FAMOUS COLONIAL HOMES VISITED
Entire Trip Strictly Private Affair And No Newspaper Men Accom- panied the Party-The Start for Washington Made on Board the Mayflower Saturday Evening.

Norfolk, Va, April 2S.-president Roosevelt and party, after their strenuous participation in the inaagur- al incidents of the Jamestown ex- position, spent Saturday on a pleasure trip up the James river Rich in it's historic associations, It's shores lined with landmarks of the colonial days of the Old Dominion, the James river appealed to the president as the field for a days quiet vacation and he looked forward to the trip as one cf the noteworthy features of his James town exposition trip itinerary. The converted yacht Sylph, on which ht embarked Friday evening after his return from the dinner given in his honor by the president of the ex position. carried the party up the James river.
 The little yacht had slipped down the bay from Norfolk during the night to be in readiness for the carly morning start
 The Sylph was headed directly up the river, with Jamestown as It's final destination Much interest has been felt in the ruins at this historic spot, the first settlement of which the exposition commemorates. Here 1t was that the first permanent set clement of English speaking people on the American continent was made on May 13, 1907. Then a pennsula jutting out into the James, James, town, successively named Fort James, James City and Jamestown. became an island through the washing away nearly two centuries ago, of the neck which connected the body Of the peninsula with the mainland.
 Along the river several stops at famous colonial homes had been planned for the presidential party
 At Westover, the home of the Byrds; at Brandon, the home of the Harrisons and said to he the site of the oldest colonial mansion fin the Old Dominion; and at Shirley, the ancestral dwelling place or the Car ters, all families notable fin the rec ord of proud Virginia lineage visits were made. These visits, ar engagements for which had been made fin advance, were entirely informal.
 The entire trip for the day was ar ranged as strictly private affair No newspapermen accompanied the party and the president sought as far rs possible to enjoy the days yaca ton in the seclusion of his family and few friends as their guests, among whom was Assistant Secretary of State Bacon.
 The party returned late in the af- ternoon and were transferred to the cruiser-yacht Mayflower. which left Hampton Roads for the return trip to Washington apout o'clock Saturday.

WOULD CLOSE WHITE SCHOOL.
Said There Was Not Enough Money,
 but Negro Schools Run.

Pine Bluff, April 29.-County Judge James Gould today re. ceived a letter from Miss Jewel Pipkiu, a popular young lady school teacher at Noble Lake, in which she informed him that K. $. Gibbons, a negro school director of that district, had in- structed her to close her white school at that place because, he said, there there were not suff- cient funds in the treasury of the district to pay the warrants for operating the school. The three negro schools, however, of that district are to continue.
 Judge Gould promptly sent a letter to the negro director in which he says Miss Pipkin has a contract to continue her school for a nine months term under a contract made by Floyd Jarvis, the white school director of the district. He informs the negro that he overstepped his authority in writing Miss Pipkin and that he was to look after the negro schools and keep his fingers out of the white school affairs in that district.
 Judge Gould also tells the negro that such actions as his would do much to bring about a segregation of school taxes, thus forcing the negroes to support their own schools or do without.
