all who knew him and spoke with him. He was somewhat affected by the sympathetic appeal of his counsel 10 the jury where stress was laid on the prejudice of the community against q man who stood friendless and alone but his feelings were restrained, be- yond the biting of his lip and a half closing of his eyes 10 lessen the gaze Of the public thus directed, or hold back the tears that all but came un- Dldden. The severest strain, as judged by his appearance, was when the dis trict attorney in argument. standing within a few feet of him, pointed the accusing finger and as vehemently as possible. denounced him in cold and unfeeling language as the man who killed John Leicht. without even the softening modification of the word alleged" At this juncture all the resolution within the man was brought into play and knowing it was an ar raignment from which he could not escape or hide his head. even for his self satisfaction. he gazed back stead lastly as though he felt that it was the moment of greatest test and that to show the slightest weakness would be construed as an evidence of guilt by the jury.
 The attendance yesterday was larg- CT than the preceding days as there was a desire on the part of many to hear the arguments of counsel, It was noted also that there were nearly twice as many women in the audience Is on the former days of the trial. In respect of the latter. the following re- cital begins yesterday morning. where l: was left off in the preceding issue. and concludes with the submission to the ;ury

THE VENIRE
 ALMOST GONE
IA Certain Halt In the Hay.
 wood Trial
Only Nine Talesmen Left and Nine PeremptOry Challenges.

Boise. May 20.-It seems inevitable that the Steunenberg murder trial must be halted again tomorrow to permit the gathering of another spec ial venire. When the session today ended only eleven out of twenty per emptory challenges had been used and but nine of the 100 veniremen gathered . week ago remained uncalled. The remaining nine will hardly furnish a gI ist for days work, so sometime to- morrow Judge Wood will probably adjourn the trial for at least a full day, and send Sheriff Hodgin forth in quest of fifty additional talesmen.
 The vacancy created by the ninth challenge, made on Saturday, was open when the trial was resumed this morning: the vacancy created by the eleventh challenge was open when the court adjourned this afternoon. and the difference between the two sums up the little stride forward of today. Joseph Chinn and William McGuffin were the men who went down today. George Powell and Lee Schrivener were the two who passed muster. They are both farmers and Scrivener was formerly a sheriff in Kansas. There were sixteen men examined and ex- cused for cause. Most of them had deep seated opinions as to the guilt or innocence of Haywood and went down for bias challenges from the state. Two of the sixteen had scruples about capital punishment and two others, scruples about hanging on circumstan- tial evidence.
 The examination wearily droned over the same old ground. although the defense has narrowed its range of questioning It asked nothing today about the Roosevelt letters and the Taft speeches. but devoted much att tention to possible local prejudice. the existence of general prejudice and the existence of general prejudice against socialists.
 Good humor came back to counsel. they joked. played back and forth all day. and the laughter of the easily pleased crowd frequently resounded through the room. only once was the easy swing broken. The defense re- turned to Juror Fisher and questioned him as to a conversation with C. P. Allen. local socialist. in october last Fisher al firSt was certain that ne ndu not talked with Allen. but when Allen came forward the juror said he rec ognized him. Allen was sworn and testified that Fisher said he knew of acts of the accused in Colorado and that they should have been strung up before they were brought to Idaho. Fisher maintained that he did not say anything of the kind. but thought he might have said that if the accused were guilty of the things done in Col orado they should have been strung up.
 Hawley, leading counsel for the state questioned Allen at length and brought from him the statement that he was employed by the defense to poll his precinct, that he was paid S3.5O a day when he worked, and that he was under pay today. Judge Wood failed to sustain the challenge of Fish CT and he remains in the jury box for the time being
 C. P. Callahan. an attorney of Boise joined the defense as associate coun- sel today. He makes the eighth oi counsel for the defense participating in the trial.

Favor of "Queen Quality shoes.
The Thomas @. Plant Company has
Just won. in the United States Circuit
Court. at ST. Louis, two important
suits. one against the May Mercantile
Company. the other against Hamburgef
Bros. The history OF these suits is Of
special interest to the shoe trade.
Briefly, Il IS this;
a lot of factory-damaged shoes were
purchased from Boston dealer by
hamburger Bros, who in turn sold
most Of them TO the May Mercantile
Company. OF ST. Louis. The May COM
pany placed these shoes on sale. and
they were advertised as Genuine

assured that il now had a chance
to get THE Genuine Celebrated Queen
quality" oxfords for $fS5,

scented their own standard OF excel
lence. and that no one else had the

Heavy Property Loss Inflicted In Adj

River Stin Out OF Banks.

Memphis, April 29-Panic-stricken resi-

on the banks Of the Canadian River,
fleeing for their lives before a tumbling
wall OF water fifteen feet In height, re-
port that probably twenty persons were
swept from their dwellings by the
huge wave. and have been drowned.
The turbid torrent was caused by a
fearful cloudburst that fell over Capital
Hill, which is a suburb of Oklahoma City,
last night, swelling the Canadian 10
hitherto unknown proportions, flooding
the Iowlands for many miles above and
below Oklahoma City. and causing great
loss of property in addition 70 the human
lives.
Unprepared for the food where no wa

the submerged l0wlands are dotted with
wrecked cottages and cabins fioated OF
their foundations. The worst feature Of
this cloudburst is the suffering entailed

New York, April IA circular-letter
has been sent TO stockholders Of the
United States Express Company By Sena-
tor Thomas c. Plat. the president IN re-
ply to the letter recently circulated by 4.
L. Banister and Samuel s. HIATT. promo
ters Of a campaign for an increase in divi-
dends. In substance. the platt circular
follows
ITO correct any possible erroneous i'm
preston, the present management makes
the following statement: The real estate
and other assets OF the company do not
together amount to more than its normal
shares, sl0,010, coo: the company has no
surplus over this amount available for
distribution.
The following reasons have deferred
directors from increasing dividends:
THE company is not "A corporation, but
a voluntary association, in which every
shareholder is personally liable for the
companys obligations. II has been the
aim Of the directors TO accumulate fund
sufficient TO protect stockholders against
personal liabilities.
Guarantee Much 10 Railroads.
The directors have been led 90 this
conclusion especially by the obligations
assumed in contracts with railroad cor
porations, which require the company 10
pay the railroads a certain guaranteed
percentage Of gross express earnings
These railroad guarantees now outstand-
ing under contract amount 10 more than
s25 10000.
THE risk involved in carrying millions
OF money especialfy under contract with
the government, makes it desirable 10
have a large surplus fund
1.-The increased payments TO railroads,
higher labor costs, and advance in the
/ prices Of supplies have kept net earnings
down 70 3 per cent Of the present gross
receipts. In 1906 the company paid the
railroads $685.. 900 more than in 1903. and
/ il paid for labor in 1906 $4,000 more thaa
| in 1904. while the increase in earnings over
1896 was but si.552,oo0.
Hostile Legislation Hurts.
Hostile legislation has decreased and
must continue 10 decrease the company s
/ receipts by affecting rates. In twelve OF
+ the twenty-six States in which the COM
pany does business, laws have been pass
/ ed in the last three months charging the
/ powers Of the railroad commissions. One
State arbitrarily reduced all express
rates % per cent after January /, 1877, a
/ reduction IN state rates generally means
/ a reduction in interstate rates More than
| twenty bills adverse 20 express companies
have been introduced in legislatures IN
/ the last three months In the last two
years ten States have By statute increas-
/ ed express company taxes.
