CHICAGO. January 23.-Gov. Deneen

for the Paulist father, the Rev ID. j.

Herman Billik. fortune teller. fake
clairvoyant and necrOmancer, was con-
victed of poisoning four members OF the
Fzral family.
The evidence showed that Billik and
Mrs. Nzral conspired 10 poison three of
her children. who were insured for small
amounts. The father had been removed
in the meantime. Then Mrs. Ezral was
found dead from poison and later Il was
held that she committed suicide from re-
morse.

The bodies of the dead were eXhumed.

Reprieved on Way to Scaffold.

Billik was convicted and the case was
fought through the higher courts.
Father OCallaghan never wavered in his
faith in Billik. He lectured and gave
entertainments to secure funds.
The state supreme court confirmed the
decision of the lower courts. A year
ago Billik was on his march TO the scat
fold. when reprieved by Gov. Deneen.
An attempt was next made to get the
issue in the federal courts on a techni-
cal1ty. This failed. and for the third
time Billik was sentenced to death. Since
then he has twice been reprieved and
every effort exhausted to save his neck
Billik's little daughter. Edna Billik,
aged twelve years, was an active factor
in the work of putting aside the halter.
He was again to face the hangman
next Friday, and had made preparatio
to meet his doom. After the refusal of
the United States Supreme Court to in
terfere his aged mother died at her home
in Cleveland.
