Special to Times Republican.
Boone, Sept. 5.-Earl Nivert, the ne
gro who is alleged to have attempted
a criminal assault on Lizzie Agee, of
Des Moines. was brought to Boone for
safe keeping and to foil any attempt at
lynching in Des Moines. The greatest
secrecy has been maintained here over
procedure. Accompanied by a deputy
sheriff, Nivert walked down a street
of Boone headed for the sheriff's office.
Officer Payton, seeing the deputy and
the suspicious looking negro, asked
them what they wanted. They refused
to reply and he arrested both and
placed them in the city Jail. Matters
soon were explained and the negro was
taken over to the county JAIL. where
he was kept until last night, when he
was removed and taken east, probably

STILL DEEP MYSTERY
Startling Developments Expected in
the Rustin Murder Case. at oma-
ha-Miss 1onneII Not Connected BY
Police, With Shooting.

Omaha, Sept S.-Developments In
the Rustin murder were not made pub
lie by the police today, but there is an
undercurrent of feeling that something
of a startling nature will develop with
ing day or two. The inquest has been
set for Tuesday next, by which time
the authorities expect to be able to
lay all evidence before the coroner. It
Is now known that Rustin reached
homo about midnight Tuesday, and
that the shooting occurred about 8
O'clock Wednesday morning. What o:-
CURED at the Rustin home during those
three hours, has not developed, and no
person is permitted to interview Mrs.
Rustin. The greatest secrecy is MAIN
tained BY those who have talked to the
widow.
Miss Leona Bonnell was seen with
Rustin late Tuesday night, and is said
to have walked to within two blocks Of
his home, with him. Detectives have
been unable to locate the revolver
with which the shooting was done and
the suicide theory is therefore secuted.
Miss Bonnell was given sweating in
the chief S office again today, but what
was learned is not known. The woman
has not been locked up, but is kept
under surveillance. 1t was admitted
that she had not been connected by the
police with the shooting at the Rustin
home M

Losing in Vermont.

Losing in Vermont.
Chicago, Sept. 3.-Having been
caught mapping in Vermont the demo-
ing TO take any chances in Maine,
where the next election is held Sept. IA.
Thomas P. Gore, the blind senator"
from Oklahoma, started for Maine yes
terday by way of Rensselaer,. Ind,
where he is to deliver an address. John
III. Atwood Of the speakers committee
went with him.
1t Is intended to, unload in Maine
such an aggregation Of democratic
spellbinders as will give the sons Of
the prohibition state much to think
about during the next two weeks. 1t
was admitted at democratic national
headquarters that they didn't have a
speaker in Vermont. They are going
to make no such tactical error in
Maine. They figure that the gain of
$500 more votes in that state will
make it democratic and that the prize
is we'll worth striving for.
Th republican national committee
however, is fully aware Of the cam
paign planned by the democrats and
Chairman Frank III. Hitchcock Will
start for the east tomorrow to direct
the Maine campaign in person. Senator
Borah of Idaho will be included among
the republican spellbinders and from
now until after election there won't
be a single dull minute for the natives
of the Pine Tree state.
The ammunition the democrats have
prepared to use against the republic
cans in the campaign in the western
states will be limited largely to the
Asiatic exclusion question. Attention
will be called to the democratic plank
providing for exclusion of the Asiatics
and in this connection the silence OF
the republican platform on that subject
will be dilated on.

Court Gives Property to Possession OF
Nominees Brother.
Chicago, Sept. 3.-The troubles OF
"Cap": Arson, which made Charles p.
Taft, brother of the republican candi-
date for president, a base ball pro-
moter, Charles w. Murphy mag
nate, and the Cubs pennant winners,
eliminated yesterday when Mrs. Anna
S. Taft, wife of the nominees brother,
was given judgment for possession
Of the premises occupied by A. z.
E,Anson & Co., as a billiard hall at 1885,
141 Madison street.
1T was alleged in the complaint by
Mrs. Taft that the Anson concern had
failed to pay any rent for the last year.
During most of that time the former
leader of the Chicago National league
has been in financial trouble.
The business relationship of the
Tafts and Captain Arson has to do
with the base ball history of Chicago.
Captain Anson formerly owned thirty
shares of the Chicago National league
base ball club, and entered into an
agreement with Charles P. Taft where
by Anson was to be given possession
of the premises in Madison street Tor
the purpose of opening billiard hail.
Anson giving his shares in the base
ball club in order to secure Taft
against loss in the event the former
failed to make success in his busi-
ness.
Arson, 1t is said. planned to redeem
his shares. but was never able to Go
so. This, it is said, made it incumbent
on Mr. Taft, owner Of the Cincinnati
Times-star. to enter. into the base ball
business in order that his deal with
Anson might not prove failure So he
sent one of his newspaper reporters.
CHARLES W. Murphy, to Chicago to take
charge of the Cubs" as manager, with
the result that the Cubs won the
worlds championship.
