POWERS STUDIES
Law IN HIS Cell

LOUISVILLE, Ky,-June 15.-
Caleb Powers, who has just been
pardoned, during his long term in
Jail has become an excellent lawyer
He was allowed to put library in
his cell, and for several years he
read law from eight to ten hours Il
day, and he read it far more careful
ly than the ordinary law student,
for he had absolutely nothing to dis
tract his attention. After his sec
ond trial Caleb Powers knew more
about his own case than most of the
lawyers. The first three juries found
him guilty, and Powers claimed they

the jury stood ten for acquittal and

bells shooting, although the man

SACRAMENTO, June l5.-George
Kroner, a well-known real estate
and insurance man. has been missing
from his home and place of business
in this city for several weeks. His
absence has led to many conjectures,
and these have narrowed down to a
belief that he was hard pressed for
money. His wife says she thinks he
is in a sanatorium somewhere, re-
covering from a nervous attack.

tions OF the Ogden police require
that he be sent to Utah for trial

of records that Fielding is wanted in
many cities. His career. according
to the records, shows that he OBJ
tanned $1,000 in Ogden by mortgag
ing to the First National Bank ol
Chicago property which, it is said
he did not own. He is an expert pen
man, according to Pender, and By
this means committed the allege,
crime. Then, it is said. Fielding

Sane WOMAN IN
insane ASYLUM

SAN BERNARDINO, June 10

fectly sane, and there giving birth
to "a child, is the pitiful condition III
which Mrs. Fannie Freedman, wife
of Los Angeles merchant, finds
herself at the Southern California
Hospital for the Insane at Patton,
this county.
The woman was sent to the State
institution at Patton, March IS, hay
ing been committed from Los An
geles. Soon after she was admitted
DR.. Williamson and the other physi-
clans at the hospital concluded that
the woman was perfectly rational
and should not have been admitted
to the asylum. She was merely
nervous, but this was attributed to
her condition On March 25 she
gave birth to boy, and since then
has been entirely sane at all times.
Her husband was Informed of hel
condition, and advised to come al
once to the hospital for the purpose
of taking his wife and child home
but for some reason unexplained h
paid no attention to it.
Finally Superintendent William
son addressed communication tc
the Hebrew Ladies' Benevolent So
ciety, stating the case, and the mat
| ter was at once taken up by Mrs
Leon Horowitz and others of the so
ciety. They have joined with tht
Los Angeles Society and crimina
prosecution may result. How the
sane woman was adjudged mad b
a lunacy commission will also be III
vestigated.

SAN FRANCISCO, June Id. {.
Green and his wife, mysterious
couple that for the last few days
have been living in an humble cot

the wonder of their neighbors by the
display of large diamonds and cos 'H
clothing, we're arrested last night by
police detectives at the instigation OF
me Pinkerton detective agency and
placed detinue at the city prison. l.
is understood that Green is wanted
N the East for various clever swind-
nng operations and was about TO
launch another here.
Although the police and the PlnKer-
TINS refrse absolutely to divulge the
least particular which led up TO the
arrest, pleading that their case Is
not yet ripe, it is understood that a
mining swindle of gigantic proper
lions has been nipped in the bud ana
mat It's OpeTdtoiS
and in some other place where par
of the swindle was to have been con-
summated.
Every effort was made to keep tn

conferences of the day were those
of Ohio, New York, Indiana and
Iowa, as each had bearing on the
perplexing question of the Vice-Pres-
idency.
The Doliver movement expert
enced varying fortunes todsE. Early
in the day it was reported that the
White House favored an Iowau,
either Dolliver or Governor Cum
mings, which sent Dolliver stock up
with a bound. This was Offset b.
the action of the Ohio mans mau-
ayers informally declaring that the
Taft forces would AVOID supporting
any vice-Presidential candidate.
Chairman Perkins, of the Iowa dele
cation, and Congressman Hepburn
called on Ex-Governor Herrick, chair
man Of the Ohio forces, and told him
positively Dolliver could not and
would not be candidate. The move
ment for Sherman or some other
New Yorker was similarly connect
ed by a decision of the State not to
present a candidate for second place

for first place, whether by ballots or

sons of New York, in a telegram sent

saw no exigency present which calls
for retirement. Speaker Cannon ar
rived unexpectedly last night. H.

ences on platform, notably injunc
tions and trusts. The name of ex'
Governor Herrick, of Oh:a, is the
