CHARGED WITH MURDER, CON-
FEssEs TO CRIME.
WAS VISITING DAUGHTER
After Having Method Of crematins
Bodies Described to Her Woman
Goes Home and Builds Funeral
Pyre for Her Husband.

Seattle, June 4.-Mrs. Madeline
King Of Olella, who has just been
brought here and placed in jail,
charged with the murder Of her hus-
band, Edward King and admitting
that she burned his body, had never
heard Of cremation as the means Of
disposing Of human remains, until a
fortnight ago. She was whiting her
daughter, Mrs. Anna Marie Fisher, Of
West Seattle, when neighbor
brought up the subject of cremation.
do they really burn bodies instead
of burying them?" she asked, and
when assured of the fact, eagerly
asked concerning the details OF incin-
Grafton.
It was a little more than week lat
er that she almost completely de-
stroyed the body Of her husband by
building a funeral pyre alongside her
little cabin in the woods.
John 3. Green, justice of the peace
for Olella and other officers. who have
investigated the death Of Edward
King. say this is the manner In which
the old man met his death and they
believe that the crime was premedi-
tated. 8.

POLITICAL LEADER OF PHlLA-

CHARGES / ARE DENIED
Mayor Reyburn's Secretary says He
Did Not Receive $4,000 From Nc.
NicoI 70 Assist lIn Dlscreditlne
Mayor Weaver's Administration.

Philadelphia, June The unusual
spectacle of a political leader OF a
great city hauled before a police mag
istrate on charge Of criminal libel
.cleW a great crowd of people to the
neighborhood Of the little Office of
Judge German today, State Senator
james p. McNichol, the acknowledged
head Of the republican organization,
had been summoned on q warrant
sworn out by Max Kaufman, private
secretary to MayVr Ravburn, to whom
McNicho. stated On tuesday he gays
$4,000 for the use Of the Law and Or
der society in discrediting the reform
efforts Of Mayor Weaver in 1906.
At the conclusion Of the testimony
Of Kaufman denying the charge and
of Secretary Gibboney Of the Law and
Order society IN Kauffmann's behalf,
Senator McNichol was held for court.
no bail being suggested.
Kaufman. who was q newspaper
reporter IN 1905. admitted that he had
financial dealings with Senator Nc
Nichol, but claimed whatever money
passed between them was used in
making bets to influence opinion re-
.garding the pending fall election. The
money involved, he said, amounted to
between $500 and $500.
{. Held on Own Recognizance.
Secretary Gibboney, whose crusades
against vice have made his name q
household word, gave interesting tes-
timony against Senator McNichol. He
denied that he had received q penny
OF the $4,000 or that he had ever ar
ranged with Kaufman to make spec
tacular raids for political purposes.
He declared that every reference to
himself in a letter written by Nc
Nichol was untrue.
Gibboney said that in the fall of
1905 McNichol called upon him at his
office at night and discussed the
Weaver administration. According to
the witness, McNichol said Weaver
was an migrate and he intimated a
desire to get even with him. Nc
Nichol was held in his own recogni-
zance.

DEFENSE SCORES POINT in TRIAL
OF FERRIS.
MINER vi Jon THE !. 5 STAND !!
Defense is Making Effort to Prove.
That Dynamite Did Not Cause
Wreck Of Burlington Train Near,
Butte-AIibi Is Shattered.

& Butte, June "A local brewer, VINO
witnessed the explosion, and pho
tographer, who took pictures Of the
wrecked train the next day and sew
eral railroad employees testified today
in the Ferris trial.
This earlier testimony, by the state
is merely to put the case before the
jury. The battle will come over ex-
pert testimony as to the use Of dyna-
mite and It's effect, since 1t is incum-
bent upon the state to prove that the
wreck was caused by dynamite ex-
plosion and not by a defect in the
boiler.
The testimony thus far has thrown
no fresh light on the case A saloon
keeper. who told Of Ferris entering
his place OF business a few blocks
from the scene OF the wreck. half an
hour after the wreck, caused the only
ripple today since his evidence II not
shaken, will kill Ferris alibi.
Objections by Defense.
Interrupted at every turn by objec-
tions Of the defense, the states attor-
neys are slowly getting the evidence
in the Ferris case before the Jury.
The testimony regarding the details Of
the dynamiting Of the Burlington train
were nearly completed today and that
part Of the evidence connecting Fer.
5ris with the wreck will be presented
probably tomorrow afternoon.
The defense apparently Is laying
the foundation for denial that the
train was wrecked by dynamite at all,
and the theory that a defective rail
threw the second engine of the track.
A number Of miners were put upon
the stand today to testify to the ac-
ton Of dynamite. They were cross
examined infinitely.
Deputy sherin Richards took the
stand for the state, testifying to hav-
ing picked up splintered rail at the
scene Of the wreck. The officer could
not swear positively that the piece Of
rail figured in the explosion, and on
objection Of the defense. the court re.
fused to admit the piece Of rail in evi-
.dence. This was q point scored by
the defense as the splintered rail was
relied on to show that the steel had
been splintered By the force Of dyna.
mite. FL #
