CHICAGO, May 10.-Secretary of

drawn into any controversy with
James A. Patten over the wheat sit
uation.
81 am through with wheat talk" he
said.
rs the present price of wheat real
or fictitious?" the secretary was
asked.
'If the farmers could be assured
of 81 bushel for wheat all the time,'
he replied, thousands of acres of pas
ture land in the middle of the west
would be plowed up and sown to
wheat"
Couldn't the brokers have just as
reliable system of getting crop re-
ports as your Department."
Il don't think so. We have beer
perfecting our system of gathering
reports for many years. I think ours
is better"

Tells What Recent Court Decision
Means and How it Affects
Land Frauds Cases
i'm Issue.
CLAIMS INJUSTICE
Matter Involves More Than Hundred
People and Government Singled Him
Out to Stand Limit Of Trial.-De-
clares That His Interest Amounted
to Less Than Two Per Cent.

GUTHRIE, Okla, May 10.-Gover-
nor Charles N. Haskell, issued a state
ment today respecting his connection
with the so-called Mott civil land suits
and the action of Federal Judge
Campbell, who at Muskogee on Sat
urday last overruled motion of the
defense. The decision, the governor
says, was in the case brought by the
government to recover additional
moneys for town lots in Muskogee and
several other Creek Nation towns.
Judge Campbell's decision" says
Governor Haskell, merely overrules
the defendants demurrer to the gov
ernment's petition, which was princi-
pally question of the jurisdiction Of
the court to hear these suits at the
instance of the interior department,
and after overruling the demurrer the
court allowed the defendants to an
swer, putting the facts alleged in the
governments petition in issue for fu-
ture trial. ''r" e+a'
"The government alleges there was
conspiracy between the owners and
schedulers Of the lots and that the
Creek Nation and the government Of
ftcials had no knowledge of the plans
of scheduling. An investigation dis
closed the fact that the United States
officials not only had knowledge but
approved the plan, but the decision
has no bearing on the criminal prose-
cution.
"The governments complaint does
not extend over more than half of the
unimproved plated land and is to the
effect that the whole valuation instead
of one-half thereof, should have been
realized by the government, so that
in no event does the government COM
plain of the loss of more than $4,000.
'"nhese complaints in the civil cases
involve more than 100 people in Mus
kogee alone, but the government has
seen fit to seek indictments only
against IOp6FuOf f1dSk0ll anu SIX OCQ-
ers
"The government claims Haskell is
an official of corporation that seized
a small portion of the above unim-
proved lots, the government valuation
of which was less than $500, so that
the real government complaint against
the corporation that Haskell was con-
nected with, in dollars and cents is
less than $1,750, and Haskell's interest
as a stockholder in said corporation
was claimed to be about 2 per cent
"This is the strongest statement
that can be made against the defend
ants, drawn from the governments
claims, based on it's official records.
and the defendants alleged they will
be able to show that the government
has no cause for complaint"

WHAT IT COSTS TO
REAR ONE CHILD
Clergyman Suggests That Parents
Should Keep Itemized Account
of the Expense.
ESPECIAL TO THE GAZETTE. }

CHICAGO, May 10.-ReV. D. D.
Vaughn, who has been delivering a
series of talks ON The Ideal Family" /"
believes an itemized account of the
cost of rearing a boy should be pre-
served and presented to him.
He said:
Parents should always let boy
know that it has cost a great deal of
money to rear him. 1t is estimated
that child costs it's parents from
$4,000 to $4,000. When a boy reaches
the age of q years his father should
present him with bill for the amount
he cost him to raise. Whether the
boy ever pays the bill or not makes
no difference. He is taught lesson
that he probably never will forget
The minister also said it was not
a good idea for parents to open their
children's mail.

HAMS CASE TO
THE JURY TODAY
Only One Hour of Summing Up and
Judges Charge to Jury Then
Case VIII End.
DEFENDANT IS LISTLESS
Accused Captains Attorney Says
Death of Annis Was Act of God
Mcintyre Brands Shooting as Cow
ardIy Murder.

FLUSHING, L. l., May 10.-One
hour more of summing up by the
prosecution and afterward the courts
charge-then the case of Capt Peter
c. Hains, Jr., charged with the MUIR
der of William E. Annis, will pass
into the hands of the jury tomorrow.
Today's session of the trial was
marked by the final appeal of John
F. Mcintyre for the defense and part
of the final plea of George A. Gregg
of the prosecution.
Peter c. Hains, Jr., displayed neith-
er emotion or interest. Mcintyre fig
ured to show the insanity of his eli
ent. One of his declarations was that
Annis met death "by an act of God"
All references to the ''unwritten law"
were objected to and the objections
were sustained by the court.
During the summing up by the
prosecution, the prisoners mother
and father withdrew and Mrs. Helen
Annis, in deep mourning, appeared
with her mother and sister, They re-
mained in court while Mr.. Gregg was
speaking.
The prosecutor denounced the in
sanity plea, declaring it was made by
the defendants lawyers as last re-
sort.
Instead of being an act of God, he
branded the shooting as "cowardly
murder, committed with deliberation
and generalization"

Case of Patrick Calhoun Resumed
with Prosecution Still Forging
Links of Evidence.

Two Walters of COsmO Club Tell of
Seeing Abe Ruef and Tirey Ford To-
gether at Lunch i'm May, 19O6.-At-
tempt to Show Directors Dummies.
ESPECIAL TO THE GAZETTE, =,


SAN FRANCISCO, May 10.-The
eighteenth week of the trial of Pat
rick Calhoun, president of the United
Railroads, for bribery of the super
visors in 1906, opened today with the
prosecution engaged in the endeavor
to forge the connecting links of its
chain of evidence which are vital in
asmuch as they are intended to direct
ly implicate the defendants with the
alleged offense.
The first several days of the taking
of testimony passed with the interjec-
ton of Mr.. Calhoun's name into the
interrogations, but in the last five or
six days the character of evidence has
now changed and now every witness
has been on the stand questioned as
to the relations of the defendants as
to certain aspects of the case.
Most of the day was given to the in
vestigation of the minute books of the
United Railroads directors, which
were used by Secretary George B.
Wilcutt, of the company, to refresh
his memory.
From the questions asked it appears
the prosecution was seeking to show
that Mr.. Calhoun was in absolute con-
troll of the board from the time of his
election as president in 1900 and that
the majority of the directors were
merely dummies" holding but sin
gle share of stock each.
Near the close of the session two
walters of the Cosmos club told of
having seen Abraham Ruef and Tirey
L. Ford at luncheon together at the
club in May, 1906.

ARMY BALLOON
BAG DESTROYED
/ In Making Landing Captain Chandler's
Air Craft Blows Up Near
Ground.
NOT SERIOUSLY INJURED
Charged With Electricity, Gas Bag Is
Set Fire in Coming i'm Contact With
Earth.-BallOOn Travels 12O Miles.
Maximum Speed so Miles an Hour.

OMAHA, May 10-Army balloon No.
u, which ascended from Fort Omaha
shortly after II o'clock today, landed
at Jackson, Neb., at GAS o'clock this
evening.
In making landing the gas bag
exploded few feet above the ground
and was destroyed, but neither Cap
tain Chandler nor Lieutenant Ware,
who made the flight, were seriously
injured. Lieutenant Ware tonight de-
cided that aside from the destruction
of the gas bag, the flight was sue
cess.
Captain Chandler said that while at
a high altitude the gas bag became
charged with static electricity and
that contact with the earth produced
an electric spark which set fire to the
big bag.
The highest altitude was 1000 feet.
Running out of ballast near Jackson,
Captain Chandler decided to make a
landing. The balloon came down in
an easy manner and then came the
explosion.
Both Captain Chandler and Lieuten-
ant Ware were knocked down, but not
seriously injured. The distance trav-
eled was about 100 miles and, deduct
ing an hour and half the balloon
was becalmed, the flight was made in
about six hours.
The maximum speed was about so
miles.

A BAD COMBINATION
Find Box Full of Stuff and Drop
Match I'm 1t With Usual
Result.

NEW YORK, May 10.-Several boys
found a cigar box in the Williamsburg
section of Brooklyn last night and on
opening it, discovered a quantity of
powder and half dozen loaded cart
ridges arranged in semi-circle, and
other articles which the police say
are used in the making of Internal
machines. Desiring to see how the
thing worked, Enrico Calavlino, 10
years old, dropped a lighted match
into the box. The machine exploded
with loud report and as a result
Enrico lost both eyes and his face and
hands were badly burned. The po-
lice started an investigation to de-
termine the maker of the Internal
machine.

Mehemmed v. Ends His Coronation
Day by Flowing q FurrOw
in the Lawn of His
Palace.
VIOLATES CUSTOMS
For First Time in History of Islam
Christians We're Allowed to Witness
Ceremonies Inside MOsQue.-City
Enthusiastically Celebrates the ADJ
vent of New Era i'm Turkey.

CONSTANTINOPLE, May 10.-Me-
hemmed V. ended his coronation day
by plowing furrow in the lawn at
Dolmabagtsche palace, symbolically at
least, by holding the plow handles
for fraction of a minute while two
horses dragged it a few yards. In
carrying out the ancient test, Mehem-
med V. showed himself to be sound of
body and fit to bear the physical bur-
dens of the empire. 1t had been day
both of fulfilling and breaking an
'cient customs. Christians for the first
time were admitted to the small
mosque and allowed to see the cere-
mony of girding the sword of Osman
on the sultan.
Among the 80 persons present were
Bucknam Pasha an American, and
Woods Pasha an Englishman, both of
whom are in the Turkish service. They
were impressed with the beauty and
the solemnity of the ceremonies which
with the chants of the priests, lasted
only 20 minutes.
AS the sultan crossed the courtyard
of the mosque to enter his carriage a
white turbaned hadia, or teaching
priest, caused a moments excitement
by running forward with petition
which he tried to hand to the sultan,
at the same time talking somewhat
wildly about the Koreanic law.
Two soldiers caught him and hur-
ried him out of the yard.
The day, Notwithstanding the ru-
mors of reactionaries, passed peace
fully. Lights were blazing in the mi
narets and the mosques of CONSTANT
nople tonight, the ships in the har-
Dor were outlined in electric bulbs
and the city generally was celebrat-
ing enthusiastically the girding of the
new sultan.
All the members of the American
embassy, including Ambassador Leish-
man, were present at the diplomatic
IGliI uulluS CuC luoIuildLlOn VI ILS sui
tan today. Among the other Ameri-
cans to witness the procession were
Rear Admiral Colby NJ Chester, U. S.
N, retired, and Mrs. Chester, and Mr..
and Mrs. Arthur Chester of New York.
After having passed the ambassa-
dorial stand the sultan stopped at the
mosque of Mohammed the conqueror,
near the entrance to the Adrianople
gate He prayed alone by the tomb of
Mohammed for quarter of an hour
and then resumed his six-mile journey
through Stambould to the sublime
porte, when he drove to the Top Ka-
hou palace and gave a reception to a
number of distinguished persons.
Along his route of march boys and
girls from all the schools in the city
sang hymns. The girls wore liberty
sashes of white and red while the boys
carried branches of laurel
The sultan concluded the ceremon-
les, which had lasted in all about five
hours, by leaving from the vinegar
sellers wharf for his palace on the 9TH
er side of the Golden Horn in state
barge propelled by Is oarsmen dressed
in white tunic and red breeches.
