ROGERS, CAUGHT HERE, TO
BE TRIED FOR MURDER
ACCUSED OF KILLING THREE
PERSONS

New York Court on
October Fl
BY Associated Press.

BY Associated Press.
GOSHEN, N. Y, Oct. 7.-Charles Henry
Rogers, charged with the murder of
Frederick and Willis Olney, prosperous
dairy farmers, and the daughter of their
housekeepsr, Alice Ingerock, will be tried
October q.
Rogers is 80 years of age, country born
and BRED He has a wife and five chill
dren, one of whom he has never seen
since he left his home in Middletown on
the morning of October 5, 1905, a few
days before the commission of the crime
charged against him.
Rogers is said to have confessed the
crime.
According to the confession he had lost
his place and was desperately in need
of money He heard that Olney had
received $500, and armed with a piece
of gas pipe murdered and robbed the
Qlney brothers.
BY pretending he was railroad de-
tective in search of desperate charac-
ter he lured the brothers into the woods
near their home. Then he killed the
brothers and robbed them of their
watches and SIC in money. Returning to
the Olney farm he fe,led Mrs. Ingerock
with brass pipe. Then he killed her
little daughter with the same weapon
and was ransacking the house when
approached, causing him to
flee.
! He went to Chicago and later to Los
Angeles. where he was captured last
April.
The defense is insanity, based on an
injury sustained years ago by Rogers in
railroad accident.

Unions

BATTLE CREEK, Mich, Oct THE
convention of the National Citizens In
dustrial association opened here today
with about fifty of the expected 200 del
egates present. President @. w. Post OF
this city made an address strongly oppos-
ing unions and the closed shop. He said:
ut is manifestly a greater restraint of
trade, annoyance and loss to the people
for the labor trust leaders to tie up the
railway and prevent travel and shipping
than it is for the oil trust to obtain from
the railway rebates not enjoyed by its
competitors. for the last is simply a
peaceful scrap between business men.
We have laws to punish these men who
bring disaster. loss and suffering upon a
community, and we demand action by
our public prosecuting officers in such
cases."
Mr.. Post advocated the reorganization
of the Citizens association with an ar
bitration committee Ito settle industrial
troubles.
