Is innocent
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
CARSON, New, Feb. 27.-T. B.

charge of embezzlement, furnished bail
in the amount of 100000.
Among those who went on the bond
are r. X. Colcord, superintendent of
the mint; Ex-Governor Adams, Deputy
State Treasurer Wiides and num-
ber of prominent town people.
There was some quibbling over the
securities, as they were compelled in
twice the amount of the bond.
Hickey, when questioned regarding
the indictment, stated that he was in
nocent of any wrongdoing, as, he says,
will be shown at the trial. He further
said that he had not been treated with
any show of liberality on the part of
the district attorney, as he had asked
to be called before the grand jury,
and has been anxious to appear and
testify before that body.
This afternoon hickey was arraigned
to appear in court Tuesday morning
at 10 o'clock, when the date for trial
will probably be set.
The district attorney stated the jury
had many matters yet to consider in

THINKS MOTHER PLANNED TO
TAKE LIFE OF "BABY JOHN"
District Attorney of Oakland Con-
vlnced That Mrs. Martin Plotted
DastardIy Deed to End Car
nival of Crime
By Associated Press.


| OAKLAND, Feb. 27.-''I am firmly
| convinced that Mrs. Isabella Martin
had planned to take the life of Baby
John as soon as she had used him as
her tool to carry out a carnival of
crime mapped out in her brain-in my
opinion one of the best developed
criminal brains with which this state
has ever had to deal"
So stated District Attorney Hall of
Trinity county this morning.
Baby John" Martin is in the charge
of the authorities here and will remain
so until after an indictment has been
found against Mrs. Martin by the Ala
media county grand jury. Detectives
armed with warrants will go to
Weaverville Saturday of this week.
The dynamite found yesterday, 1t is
alleged, was intended by Mrs. Martin
10 blow up the home of Superior Court
Judge Waste.
She felt that he had advised against
her in her insurance suit, it is said,
and had marked him for a victim.
Judge Waste himself admitted today
he knew of her enmity and felt he had
had a narrow escape from Judge Og-
den's experience.
A technical question has arisen here
as to whether any of the judges of the
superior court in Oakland could try a
case against Mrs. Martin for the al
legged dynamiting of Judge Ogden's
home, because the bar association had
offered a reward for the person who
dynamited the Ogden home. The ques-
iton is being considered by District
Attorney Brown.

BEAUTY OF WOMAN'S
NOSE is WORTH $250O,
SAYS CHICAGO JURY
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press
CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Beauty attend
ant upon a perfect Grecian nose was
valued at $250O by a jury in the supe-
rior court yesterday.
DIR. Bessie Andrus, handsome young
physician, suffered injury to her nose
en- a street car some time ago and sued
for $40, 900 damages.
DIR. Andrus was injured in october,
1906, while boarding car. She was
stepping up to the front platform when
the brake was suddenly released by the
motorman and the handle struck her
in the nose. She was rendered un-
conscious and physicians found that
she had suffered a compound fracture
of her nose. Seven stitches were nee
essary.
On the witness stand in Judge Nc
Surely's court the young physician COM
mented upon the form of her nose.
"It was of the perfect type" she said.
'Many persons admired the beauty of
my nose and commented upon its grace
ful and perfect lines. 1t was what is
commonly called perfect Grecian nose.
Since the accident its beauty has been
marred and spoiled"

DROPS PENCIL AND
SO SAVES HIS LIFE
Teamster Stoops to Pick Up Fallen
Object and Discovers Internal
Machine Set to Explode
in Door

BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Feb. 27.-Alfred P. Lehner
owes his life to the fact that he stopped
to pick up a pencil as he was about to
open the door of his coal shed.
Just inside the door there was bomb
which, it is thought, would have ex-
rloded had Lehner swung the door but
four inches. He already had Unmatched
the door and noticed the alleged infer
nal machine s he stopped.
Lehner, who is a teamster, says the
opening of the door would have formed
a circuit of two wires which were con-
rected to a fuse in the brass tube,
which is believed to contain dynamite.
He notified the police and detective
climbed through window and dis
connected the wires. The city chemist
will examine the bomb.
The bomb was a brass cylinder five
inches long and was covered with paper
to hide it's nature.
Lehner declares he has no known
enemies.

WASHINGTON
SOLONS HAVE
HOT SESSION
INDIAN BLOOD RUNS WARM IN
SENATE PROCEEDINGS
Kansas Lawmaker, Descendant o
kaw Tribe, Tells Cherokee He
Is Under Control of Sec
retary of Interior

By Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Feb 27.-A highly
dramatic scene, in which two senators
with Indian blood in their veins, and
members of former Indian tribes, car
ried on an animated and acrimonious
debate, marked the proceedings of the
senate today.
Senator Owen of Oklahoma, men,
Der of the Cherokee Nation, fought by
means of a wordy battle to have the
word 'late" placed before the designa-
ton of the five civilized tribes de-
claring that he wanted to record the
death of the old tribal relations.
Senator Curtis of Kansas, who is
part Kaw Indian, taunted his fellow
Indian with the statement that he was
under the control of the secretary
of the interior" There ensued a wordy
battle which entertained both sena-
tors and visitors in the galleries.
When the senate voted on the propo-
sition, 1T was against the contention
of Senator Owen.
Senator McCreary of Kentucky spoke
on the currency bill. and after further
consideration of the Indian bill the
senate, at 4:30 p. m., adjourned.
Tones Are Tragic
Senator owen insisted in tragic tones
and with face showing much emotion,
that the five civilized tribes of In
dians" were dead, and that he, as a
member of the tribe of Cherokee In
dians, was not under the control of the
secretary of the interior.
The event was rendered all the more
interesting by the fact that Mr.. owen
engaged in the controversy with
Charles Curtis. 1t was the first time
that two men with Indian blood in
their veins had ever locked horns as
senators.
Mr.. Curtis sought to interrupt Mr..
Owen before the Oklahoma senator had
concluded his first sentence.
But interposed the Kansas sena-
tor. your property is under the con-
troll of the secretary of the interior, and
you know it,"
''I do not" retorted Mr.. Owen.
Mr.. Curtis insisted upon his view of
the status of the Oklahoma senator.
He did not contend that the property
of the senator from Oklahoma, aside
from that owned as a member of the
Cherokee tribe of Indians, was under
control of the secretary, but the prop
erty of his tribe was.
tililh YOU OuSHl iiOl " pS
the control of the secretary, but you
are" he said.
II agree quickly replied Mr. owen,
with the senator from Kansas, that
ought not to be; 1 disagree with him
that am
The dramatic tone of the Oklahoma
senator rather startled the chairman
and people in the galleries leaned for
ward to see the participants in the
wordy battle.
Senator owen left his place in the
rear of the chamber and advanced to
the center aisle, where he was within
sight of everyone.
The two senators of Indian blood
now were facing each other, twenty
feet apart. Both appeared to have
lost sight of parliamentary rules and
were carrying on personal colloquy.
Mr.. owen proceeded to say that the
supreme court of the United States had
declared the Indians holding allotted
lands are citizens of the United States.

fate of his comrades.
Addressing the court in broken Rus
sian he made the sensational declara-
ton that the passport that bore his
name was not really his, and that he
therefore desired to be tried as a Rus
sian subject.
All efforts on the part of the court to
induce him to disclose his real name
and status proved unavailing.
Two women were also sentenced to
death and one to imprisonment. The
accused all refused counsel, and the
court delegated two military arvocates
for the defense. The public was ex-
cluded from the hearing.

SALT LAKES FORMER CHIEF

So Finds Jury in Trial of George
Sheets, Accused of Receiving
Bribe and Pressed to Re-
sign by Opponents
By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
SALT LAKE CITY. Feb. 27.-"Not
guilty of receiving a bribe" was the
verdict rendered today by the jury be-
fore which the late chief of police,
George Sheets, has been on trial.
Two men convicted of taking $4,000
from a pair of tourists in pretended
raid on a prearranged poker game,
testified that the police chief connived
at their swindling operations and
shared in the loot.
So warmly was the charge pressed
by Sheets political opponents that he
resigned his position. He was the
first chief of police under the Ameri-
can party.
Members of the jury said tonight
that the testimony of the alleged ac-
completes was not sufficiently corrobo-
rated.

SOME FEATURES IN
YESTERDAYS JAMES

Newark got six runs in the sixth
inning against the Orioles and won the
game. Jersey City's defeat gave New
ark second place.
Montreal made but two hits yester-
day against eight made by the Grays,
but the Beavers managed to score the
same number of runs.
Over $4,000 people saw the Cubs and
the Pirates split even in a double
header at Chicago. Willis allowed but
two hits in the second game, Wag-
ner's steal and Abby's hit winning for
the Pirates.
Tommy Mccarthy, last year with
Newark, and Tozer, with Buffalo last
season, went in against the Cardinals

dinals got six hits off Mccarthy and
i've off Tozer in Alb innings. Nc
Carthy struck out three men n Tozer
two. Neither pitcher made a hit. The

Revival Of Bicycle Game at
Vailsburg Brings Out Old
Time Sports.

Looked like Did times yesterday at
The V~ailsburg bicycle track-no longer
the old rickety board saucer, but the
up-to-date Newark velodrome. with a
brand new six-lap oval. II the turnout
and the display of enthusiasm at this,
the opening meet, may be taken as an
indication, the interes in the cycle rae
ing game has indeed been revived.
Though weather wasn't exactly as
though made to order, a crowd, esti-
mated at 5000, passed through the gate
and everyone wore a smile of content
ment on filing out after the last race.
But there was a goodly field out. at
that, including such well knowns as
Kramer, Root, Fogler, Moran, Bedell,
Krebs, Bardgett and others, n the
crowd seemed satisfied. Kramer won,
of course. That was to be expected.
The East Orange rider easily captured
the half-mile open, but sat up on his
wheel after covering half the distance
in the three-mile handicap, in which he
started on the mark of honor with
Jimmy Moran. The race went to Joe
Fogler. Eddie Root, his teammate in
the last two siX-day races, finished
second and John BedelI third.
