ALMA BELL WILL
 TAKE THE STAND Defense Will Base Case or Retributive Justice, or
 Unwritten Law

AUBURN, Cal, November 2O.--Al ma Bell will probably take the stand Monday to tell the story by which heI attorneys hope to establish that staying Joe Armes was not murder, but justi fiable-an act of retributive justice such as would be sanctioned by the so. called unwritten law.
 The defense is expected to shape its questioning of the accused young wo. man in such way that no attempt can be made by the prosecution to bring her moral character into question.
 In his statement for the defense At. torney Chamberlain promised to show that Alma Bell and Joseph Armes had heen engaged since 1906 and that she therefore had a right to kill him when he refused to shelter her from disgrace by making good his promise.
 The prosecution will seek to show that Alma Bell was engaged to three men other than Armes.

CLAWS CALLED ID STAND IN GOAL
 HEARING
Said Government Was in Possession of All Facts
 Known to Him

SEATTLE, Wash, November 20.-L. R. Glavis, chief of field work of the general land office in Seattle, who was removed from office by Secretary of the Interior Ballinger, with the approval ol President Taft, was called to the wit ness stand today in the hearing of the government inquiry into the validity of the Cunningham coal land claims in Alaska, in connection with which charges made by Glavis resulted in his dismissal.
 He was asked merely to identify a letter which he had written recently to J. A. Sheridan, special attorney for the government in the inquiry, in reply to request from Sheridan for confer ence concerning the facts to which the former field chief could testify.
 Glavis wrote in reply that he. would meet the prosecutor, but that conference was unnecessary as the government was already in possession of all the informa- ton to which he could testify.
 Glavis will be called to the stand Monday
 The government continued the intro, duction of evidence to show that the filings on 52, 800 acres of coal land. near Katalaska, valued at $50,000,000, was made by thirty-three claimants with the purpose of consolidating the claims and mining coal through one claim. Andrew Kennedy, a government ex pert, who examined the claims, testi fed that there had been permanent de velopment work on but one claim.
 Dr. c. J. Cunningham of Spokane told of the discovery of coal by his brother Clarence, after whom the claims were named.
 The only testimony of a sensational nature was the introduction in evidence of the notebook of Clarence Cunning ham, procured by Glavis, in which ar entry states that Cunningham agreed tC carry coal claim of 360 acres fol Senator W. D. Hepburn of Idaho, in re turn for legal services. Other exhibits however, denied any connection of Hey burn with the Alaska coal claims while a senator.

STANDARD DECISION CAUSES SLUMP IN
 STOCKS
Order of Dissolution Will Be Appealed to Su-
 preme Court

NEW YORK, November 20.-The decision of the United States district court at St. Paul against the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, declaring that corporation illegal and ordering its dissolution, was the one great fea- ture of today's stock market. The news was evidently unexpected and had the effect of turning a very active and strong market into one of extreme weakness.
 The importance of the decision and its far reaching possibilities were free ly acknowledged by the officials of the corporation concerned, who hastened to add, however, that the ease would be promptly taken to the court of last resort, in accordance with an agreement entered into some time ago between the government and the defendants.

Live Mule Rescued

Imprisoned with the miners was live mule.
 George Semmerich's inexperienced efforts to make the contents of his lunch pail last as long as possible shows how pressed the imprisoned men were for food. Semmerich's s pail had con. tained four slices of bread, one piece of pie and huge dill pickle. Semmer. ich s estimate of how long this food would last proved woefully wrong, for, dedueting what he gave others, it had all disappeared within twenty-four hours.
 Fortunately the prisoners still had a practically uuimpaired plug of tobac- co. From this they extracted all the nourishment possible and then swal- lowed the quid.
 This diet kept Semmerich' $ stomach in so feverish condition that for three days he experienced practically no bangs of hunger. The leather band of his cap was next pressed into service, and his gloves followed

pany, the shares to which they are equi- tably entitled in the stocks of the de- fendant corporations that are parties to the combination.
 The defendants are enjoined from continuing or carrying into further eff feet the combination adjudged illegal hereby and from entering into or per forming any like combination or con spiracy the effect of which is to restrain commerce in petroleum, or to prolong the unlawful monopoly of either by the use of hquidating, or by making an express or implied agreement or ar rangement like that adjudged illegal, to the control or management of any of the corporations or price or terms of purchase, or of sale or rares of trans portation of petroleum or it's products, or relative to the quantities thereof purchased, sold, transported or mans aged by any corporations which will have like eXect in restraint of com merce.
 Will Appeal Direct
 The case will be appealed direct to i the United States supreme court, as the judges who signed today's decree are in effect judges of the United States circuit court of appeals, although they were sitting for the purpose of trying this ease as the circuit court for the eastern district of Missouri.
 The decree of the court dissolving the Standard Oil trust becomes effective in thirty days, when, no doubt, stay will be granted for the purpose of ap peal,
 When the decree takes effect unless stay is granted, an injunction will is sue restraining the Standard Oil com pany from further continuance of its business under its present formation.
 It appears from the eoncurring opin- ion written by Judge Hook that the company cannot do business under any other form with the object of stifing competition, for he says on this sub. ] jcct that it is thought that with the end of the combination the monopoly will naturally disappear, but should it not | do so, and the members of the combi. nation retire from it, except one who might perpetuate monopoly by the aggregation of physical properties and instrumentalities, it would constitute a violation or the decree of the court.
 Great Legal Talent
 The suit was begun by direction of the federal attorney general in St. Lou. | IS, November l5, 1906. Frank B. Kel logg of St. Paul, was appointed special prosecutor, assisted by Charles B. Nor rison of Chicago Frank H. Poole and J. II. Graves of the department of jus. tice; w. H. Higgins of Minneapolis and c. A. Severance of St. Paul
 The Standard Oil company presented formidable array of legal talent led by John C.. Milburn of New York. The defense was that the present organiza- tiOn of the Standard Oil corporation was the result of the natural outgrowth of great industry and that no statute had been violated.

Not Far AWAY.

Word has been sent to all points
south of Alexandria to look for the
bodies and search is being kept up
for the bodies. They are not expected
to have floated very far down stream
from the fact that the two are suppos-
ed to be clasped in each others arms
and therefor forming a heavy object
whoch cannot be easily buffeted along
by the current.
Every foot of the river bed in the
immediate vicinity of where the two
leaped into the water has been gone
over with no results and this is taken
as hopeful sign that perhaps the
young folks did not commit suicide but
have slipped away some place togeth
er and may yet turn up alive.
Everything in the case excepting
the failure to recover the bodies
points to suicide and that 1t had beer
carefully planned The couple left &
note stating their intentions, departed
without coats or hats and left theil
valuables behind. Had they intendet
to elope they would not have gone
