CHICAGO. August 29.-Robert G. East

and started with him for New York
Eastman's fight from New York
early this month resulted in the sus-
pension of his brokerage firm of East
man & Co. 33 Wall street. They
were members of the consolidated eX-
change. 1t was said by other members
of the firm that Eastman had overdrawn
his accounts about $1,000. A week later
larceny charges were considered by the
grand jury on the complaint of Helena
A. Robertson, who alleged that she had
gwen Eastman several Thousand dollars
to purchase stock; that he had done So
but had pocketed the proceeds. 1t is
probable that this is the charge upon
which Eastman has been arrested.

Special Correspondence Of The Star

Special Correspondence OF The Star.
RICHMOND. Va. August %, 1908.
With the nomination of Representative
Harry L. Maynard of Portsmouth to sue
coed himself the democrats have named
their candidates in each of the districts
of the state. Chairman Ellyson has re-
turned from Europe and has taken up
the real active work of the campaign and
has announced that he will lend his en-
ergies to that task. He will have a meet
ing of the state democratic committee in
this city during the first week in Septem-
Der. when his plans for the campaign will
he gone over with some care and the
fighting will be forced daily from now
until the day of election. Mr.. Ellyson has
been surprised and gratified at the man
ner in which the former opponents of Mr.
Bryan have returned to the party many
of the foremost men having volunteered
that may be desired. There are many
men in the state who developed a spirit
of Indifference when Mr.. Bryan was first
named on the silver platform. and in the
next campaign they had become embit-
tered by the criticism of their acts and
did not give to the ticket their support.
This year all this is changed those who
are adhering to their old position of an
tagonism to Mr. Bryan being SO few as
to be imma terial.
MI EllysOn nclines to the belief that
the time is Opportune for the redemption
of the ninth district which has not been
represented in Congress by a democrat
since Judge Rhea was defeated by Gen.
Walker several years ago by less than
go votes. The democrats have nomnat-
ed j. Cloyd Byars of Bristol, young
man, a senator for some time, and who
is a son-in-law of Col. Dave Bailey. a
republican of that section who is antag-
ouistic to the Slemp element of the party.
1t is understood that Col. Bailey will take
the stump against Slemp, even if he does
not indorse the candidacy of Mr.. ByarS.
The latter has written a letter in which
he challenges Representative Slemp to
meet him on the stump and to engage in
a discussion of the issues. Mr.. Byars is
a fluent debater and has a record of the
of the party in the state. The democrats
of that district declare that they will de-
feat Slemp at the polls this fall.
May Attack Tucker.
That the record of Harry st. George
Tucker of Lexington is to be attacked
by some of the papers of the state and
possibly by one of the candidates is
generally accepted as true. Ii will be re-
called that Mr. Tucker had succeeded his
father in Congress from the tenth dis
trict in the year preceding the nominal
ton of Mr.. Bryan. and when free silver
was an issue in the country. Mr.. Tucker
was not free silver advocate, and he
made bold to declare his position and
had the manhood to decline TO stand for
Congress in his district when he was
given the choice of accepting that or
standing aside. He stood by his princl-

WYOMING LEADS WOOL STATES
Finally Lands Ahead of Montana I'm
Amount and Value of
Product.

CHEYENNE. Wyo., Nov. 24.-(Special)-
Unless all signs fail. Wyoming will again
lead all other states and territories In 1903
in the matter of wool production. Last year
Wyoming passed Montana, which lead for
many years, and became the banner sheep
and wool state of the union. although Mon
tana was not entirely shorn of honors, for,
while Wyoming produced 2,s17, 600 pounds
more wool in the greRse, the Montana
fleeces aggregated 6S9,56O pounds more
secured wool. Montana received for her
wool 81, $780, 7S. as against S7,211, T3 received
by Wyoming for her 1907 clips. Montana
then, while being second to Wyoming in
her production Of wool in the grease. re-
tanned the total value of the annual clip.
But this season Wyoming has undoubt-
eddy passed Montana in the matter of pro-
.duction of secured wool, as we'll as In the
grease. and this state will also receive for
the clip a sum considerably in excess of
that obtained by Montana for her 1908
wool. ,.
The State Board OF Sheep commissioner
Of Wyoming, which annually conducts a
shearing pen inspection, at which accurate
figures on the number OF sheep shorn, aver
age weight of fleece, etc, are obtained, will
shortly Issue its annual statement. This
will show that during the season OF 1908
approximately 4,61O,SOO sheep were shorn;
that the fleeces averaged eight pounds in
weight, and that the seasons clip, in the
aggregate, amounted to approximately So.
10000 pounds. The wool was much heavier
in 1908 than in 1907. the fleeces last year
averaging rs pounds each, but the shrink
age IL the same, IS per cent.
Wyoming's wool clip for the year 1905,
after being secured, aggregated 10, 100, O(
pounds, and sold at an average Of ~ cents
per secured pound, returning to the
Wyoming flockmasters a sum aggregatine

Omaha daily bee., 1908-11-25

hours. DR.. Walter s. Haines Of Rush Medi-
cal college, Chicago, was called to the stand
by the defense upon the converting OF court
this afternoon. He testified that on May
81, 1908, he received from Coroner Mack
of Laporte three stomachs in one jar.
These were the stomachs taken from the
bodies Of Mrs. Guinness and three Of the
children. He said: The stomach had al
most run together. so that the material was
like thick mud. A few fibres from the
original wall were observable. The only
possible analysis was by using the mass
together. l found an abundance of arsenic
and a quantity of strychnine. There was
enough strychnine to have caused the
deaths of three persons. 1t was impossible
to tell whether the poison originally was in
one, two or all the stomachs."
On cross-examination, DR.. Haines stated
that he could not say that the three persons
whose stomachs he had analysed had died
from s%trychnine poisoning.
DR.. Haines was followed by Alexando
Neddo, living two miles from the Guinness
place, stating that he saw the fire at
o'clock on the morning Of Aprn Is. The
defense then rested.
