TELLS OF SCHWARTZ TRAGEDY
Continued from page l.)

OplnlOn IS Jtldt il was NIGH WuO committed the deed, because that while Neill and Woods are both cowsrdly Neill is more cold blood ed. Neill and Woods both hated the detectives Schwartz and Stew ems. Neill knew that he was being shadowed by them in connection with his clandestine relations with a woman, and Woods had had trouble with Schwartz over another matter.
 ''I understand that publicity has been given to the fact that l tried to get reward offered for the murderer of Schwartz. l freely admit that suggested to Pulliam that he ought to try to get a re- ward offered because the sheriff's office is certainly entitled to it, considering the hard work connect ed with working up a case of this kind. Friends of Neill and Woods, l have been told, have tried to show that 1 had an ulterior or self ish motive in trying to get re- ward offered. To disprove such islander need only say that when l metioned this matter to the officers said that did not want anything out of it myself, and would not ac- cept a single cent if it were offered me.
 ''l am not sorry the case has been continued. It is such cold blooded affair that the more people think about it the more sentiment will develop against the murderers. and the more apt they will be to get justice. When the case comes to trial do not believe there will be any difficulty in proving that Neill and Woods have jointly com mitted one of the most cowardly and dastardly murders in the his tory of Arizona or any other coun- try. And Schwartz is not the only man they intended to make away with, either. There is evidence which can be easily produced that would show that they intended to include Jim Johnson. bitter ene- my of Neill. in their plot.
 Schwartz was killed on the night of September IS of last year. l was not in Williams that night and they knew it. and that is very likely why they picked this night tor their murderous work. Schwartz and his partner. Stevens. were living together. About 9 o'clock Woods went to the house of Schwartz and Stevens and called Stevens out. saying I want you to go with me and help me arrest Neill.' This was a cunning bait, as Neill had given Stevens severe shaping few days before. and Stevens. the unsophisticated fellow that he was. walked right into the trap thinking he had a chance to get even with Neill. As soon as Woods got Stevens away from the house he was joined by Neill and the two forcibly took Stevens out to the dam and tied his feet togeth- CT and attached rocks to his body, intending to drown him. Finally they changed their plan and let him go. realizing that he was so badly scared that he would leave town if given half chance. and that 1t would be safer to let him go than to drown him and take chances on his body being found. This part of the stroy is common informa- tion and Nell and Woods do not deny having had Stevens out at the dam. Neill asked Stevens why he was shadowing him. and he said he was doing so for his boss, Detective

The Coconino sun., 1909-10-01

This case IS certainty remark able in it's dastardliness. There are so many things about it that seem unreasonable and impossible that 1 can readily understand how there are people who are saying that it is a very mysterious case, and that they do not believe that 1t will ever be unraveled. believe that l have reached the bottom of the whole thing, and l am not afraid to tell the truth. the whole truth and nothing but the truth. am here now because my duty as a man demands that be, in the in- terest of justice, and when ever the case comes to trial am willing to go on the stand. do not care in how many different ways lawyers may ask me the same question, or how severe the cross-examlnation.
 The cold facts of the case are there.
 and any effort to break down my testimony would only make the facts themselves more stubborn.

Hazinq.

Aazing.
Hazing is an indefnate and inexplica.
bic something. When we are called be.
fore the faculty we deny the existence
Of the word. We call it gentle horse
play.
Nevertheless hazing. whatever it Is.
fills its place in mans life. The won.
derful state Of sopbomorehood would
be lost if not for it. What would be.
come of our great Military academy at
West Point if it were not for hazing?
There are three great periods Of haz.
ing in mans life-first the green ap.
pie period. then the college period and
finally the married period. which. we
are told. is one continuous round OF
hazing on both sides.
Hazing is an educational and desira-
BILE experience for those wishing to be-
come shareholders. superintendent OF
gangs. divorce seekers and fathers of
large families.
What is the greatest press agent of
this age? Hazing. Look at the free
advertising different colleges receive
every year.
Hazing is also very helpful to those
wishing to test the strength of base
ball clubs. fence pickets and bricks
