that tney have md Interviews look

BiNek is Legally Dead
Declares Attorneys in
Chicago Criminal Court

the case came back to Judge Barnes
Tor re-sentence. 1t is now claimed
that in the absence of any order re-
scinding or postponing the previous
sentence of death, Billek, in legal
heory, is already dead, and hence can
not be sentenced to pay any penalty
whatsoever.
1t is not considered likely that this
plea will be upheld by the court and
it is highly probable that the arch
poisoner will again be sentenced to be
hanged by the neck until dead -
Catholic priests and sisters have been
active in attempting to prove Bilek S
innocence but while their efforts have
tended to discredit some of the evil
dence adduced at the trial, it has not
been sufficient to remove Billek from
the shadow of the gallows.

ILLINOIS BOARD
ENJOINED FROM
ENFORCING LAWS
Hearst News Service.

Chicago, November 16.-Before
Judge Kohlsaat in the United States
court, a hearing will be held tomor-
row upon the application of the rail
roads for a temporary injunction re-
straining the State Railroad and
Warehouse Commission from enforc-
ing the provisions of the new switch
ing law.
Nearly all the leading railroads of
this section are included in the appli-
cation for an injunction. The appli-
cations were filed by stockholders in
each case because of the excessive
penalties prescribed by the new
switching law for failure to carry out
its provisions.
These penalties are such, it is stat
ed, as would bankrupt railroad COM
pany should the decision of the courts
be adverse. The situation in this re-
spect is similar to that in the MINES
sofa 2-cent rate case, where the Su-
preme Court declared the law uncon-
stitutional because OF excessive pen
alties which practically deprived the
railroads of the right to appeal to the
courts.

novel plea to be made by Attorney
Hinckley before Judge Barnes in an
attempt to save Billek from the gal

poisoner tomorrow.
Billek was sentenced to be hanged
last summer The day of execution
came but the United States Court took

given leave to appeal to the Supreme

SECOND WEEK
CRIMINAL Term
CIRCUIT COURT

The second week of the criminal
term of the circuit court opened this
morning and has been busy all day.
Several minor cases have been dis
posed of by agreement.
Tomorrow the case of Joe Williams
charged with the murder of Ed How
ell, will be called for trial In fact
it is set for tomorrow and the case
will likely be put on trial. While it is
a negro case, it is somewhat of a cele-
brated one, as Ed Howell was a prom
inent negro banker. Whether Joe
Williams is implicated in his taking
off, remains for the jury to deter
mine.
Williams will be represented by At
torneys ]. E. Davis, Luther James
and A. E. Cherry, while the state will
be represented by District Attorney
d. G. McLaurin.
The grand jury re-assembled this
morning and it is supposed that they
will wind up their work this week.
They returned eight true bills last
week.

The Chief.

The following beautiful poem from
the pen of Grantland Rice is dedi
Gated to the memory of the late Ed
ward Ward Carmack. Mr.. Rice is ;
member of the staff of the Nashvill,
Tennessean. of which Mr.. CarmacI
was editor:
The chief is fallen, So the Troop
Today rides slowly;
Sad heads bend low-broad shoulder,
droop
Where Death lies holy:
And there are tears in weary eyes
AS rain from winters weeping skies
Where every sobbing southwind signs
A requiem lowly.
The Chief is fallen! Halt the Guard
For voiceless prayer;
Loves last pale lilies crown the sward
Above him there;
And through the lonesome pines that
sway
Above his rose-crowned Rest TODAY
Lies lost winds whisper on their way
Loves deep despair.
what was the crime for which he died
In unfair fight?
Foul Crime! He dared through Faith
and Pride
To stand for Right.
And so by coward heart and hand
Shot in the back"-he leaves his
band
A shadow in the Lonesome Land
OF starless night.
Shame crowns the State where.
thrown away,
Sad Honor weeps;
But blood shall call for blood the dav
That Justice sleeps;
The hurt-the heartache and the tears
Shall know no end through endless
years.
Nor dim, as Life's deep twilight nears
And Darkness creeps.
20 Captain! Captain From the wall
The bugles blare:
ers call
In dull despair;
They wait for you by hill and stream
Their dripping sabres flash and
CLEAN
o Captain! Captain! Must you
dream
Forever there?"
The rolf call Captain, of the Troop-
Your comrades wait;
Until you come their proud heads
droop,
All desolate;
They may not give their chargers
speed
their Beau Sabreur to lead
Their Paladin in time of need
To storm the gate''
Seem the east Dawn's crimson
glow
Has brought back Day;
Up, Captain, up-we need you so
To lead the way;
Look-through the mists the sun
beams shine
Along the steel that arms your line
God of the World! He gives no sign
No word to say
No answer now from white lips
pressed
And unreplying;
Still hands upon silent breast
Forever lying;
But out from Gods white land of
light
Beyond the Field-beyond the Fight
His clear voice rings across the Night
With strength undying.
The Chief is fallen! But the Flag
In ripping roll
Waves proudly. Let no Trooper lag
OF stalwart soul;
Up! Boot the Saddle! To the Fray!
And in the mad, wild charge today
God pity him who blocks the way
Or bars the goall
