New Evidence In sapp Case.

lola, Kan, Nov. Much interest
in the Sapp murder case was aroused
here Tuesday night when it became
known that the defense was keeping
in the dark witness who, it is said,
would corroborate the details Of the
story of Samuel Whitlow, charged
with the crime. The newly-discovered
witness will testify, 1t is said, that he
saw Miss Sapp meet Whitlow on two
occasions after night and heard her
threaten to kill him and herself If he
refused to elope with her The wit
ness will also testify that Whitlow
told her to give up thought of any
rash act, all of which bears out Whit
lows story. Whitlow's attorneys re-
fuse to be interviewed concerning the
new witness. Whitlow's trial will be
held in J@nuGry.

The presidents promise was OBJ

committee and to petition from the
national organization of printers,
stereotypers, pressmen and etchers
setting forth the evidence of COM
Dination of paper manufacturers for
the purpose of controlling the output,

The call upon the president was
made N pursuance of resolutions

second, that the defiance of recent ju-
dicial action prohibiting participation

dent will call for the facts ascertained

fine FOR SANTA Re
The Road Found Guilty on GO
Counts and Penalty Assessed
at S33O,OO0.
FOR GRANTING REBATES
Judge WelIborn Of Los Angeles I'm
posed the Sentence Which He
Denomnated An intermediate
PenaIty"-WilI Appeal.

Los Angeles, Cal, Nov. S.-Judge
Olin Wellborn, in the United States
district court Thursday fined the
Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Rail-
road company s330,000 for rebating.
The fine vas what the court denomi-
mated AN intermediate penalty" the
maximum which might have been as
sessed being $1,320,O0O and the mini
mum $4,000.
The court reviewed the case in writ
ten opinion of some length in which
It stated that there were sufficient
doubtful and eXtenuating circum-
stances to preclude the possibility of
a maximum sentence and yet sufii-
cient intention of wrong-doing shown
to make impossible a minimum pen
atty.
The Santa Fee company was convict
ed on October II last by jury in the
federal court of granting rebates to
the Grand Canyon Lime and Cement
company Of Arizona. 1t was found
guilty on all of the &C counts charged
deliberation. The rebates which
were given on shipments of lime and
cement from Nelson Arizona to Los
Angles, ranged in amounts from 80
cents to SIS. The company claimed
that these amounts were not rebates
on the regular freight rate but were
in the form of damages to goods
shipped, which were allowed after
such claims had been regularly pre-
scented and proved in each instance.
The court does not take that view
of the case, however, and stated that
1t was not convinced by any means
that these amounts represented boni'
fide settlements of claims"
at Is hard to believe" the court
continued in its opinion, that the
agents of the corporation did not
know that they were violating the
law. In any event such ignorance of
the law is almost equivalent to a
criminal knowledge of it."
Solicitor w. e. Camp, for the com
pany, Immediately moved a stay OF
Judgment which was required, he said
by the time necessitated in prepar
ing the defendants bill of exceptions
Counsel indicated that January
would suit them for a limit on the
stay. United States District Attor
ney Lawler objected to so long time
and Judge Wellborn fixed the stay al
80 days with the privilege of an ex
tension, if a sufficient showing should
be made to the court at that time.

Mexico's Indian Women.

The beauty of Indian women Is one
Of the charms Of Mexico. In the cap.
ital, where the Indian has degen.
Grated through poverty and mental
service 1t is less to be remarked than
in the smaller towns and in the coun-
try. But the beautiful faces one takes
in memory away from Mexico are
those of Indian women. Fine eyes
are universal, and, what one hardly ex-
poets, the features, according to eau
'casian standards - broad brows,
straight noses, well-formed mouths
and chins full but not gross or heavy.
The expression is very generally intel
ligent, and often one is struck, both in
Indian men and women, with the no.
blity and refinement of the coun-
tenance. One frequently sees types
among the poems that seem to belong
to some highly civilized ancient caste
an Egyptian priest Of royal blood, a
Roman centurian, an Aztec emperor.
The women are gently lovely where
they are beautiful, and the men at
their best in carriage, in manners and
in countenance are strikingly like the
very advanced product of civilization.

turns received through the night and
Wednesday morning confirm the gen
eral results already announced and

the independence league.
Maryland has elected the democrat
ic candidate for governor, Judge Aus
tin L. Crothers, and the entire demo-
cratic state ticket by about 1000 plu-

date for governor, whose plurality

publican ticket, headed by Augustus

state, remain as reported, Justices Ed
ward T. and Willard Bartlett, joint
democratic and republican nominees,
