Originally the Yaquis were an agri-

they had always held. and the right
to cultivate the soil and live peaceably
on it, undisturbed. They were willing
TO give allegiance to the government
Of Mexico, TO pay taxes. and to be
good citizens.
Mexico, on the other hand. denied
them any right. granted their holdings

told me they had seen bands of Yaqui

NOTED MURDER
TRIAL AT HAND
Intense Interest in Miller, Sayler
and Grunden Cases at
Watseka, III.
DEFfNSE Will BE VIGOROUS
Thousands of Dollars Will Be Spent
to Free Defendants Who Are chsrs-
ed With Killing Banker sayIer -
Prosecution Also Backed by People
of Wealth-Domestic Tragedy.

Watseka. ILL.,, Nov. 20.-Never be-
fore in the history of Iroquois county
has trial excited the intense inter-
est exhibited in the cases of DIR.
William r. Miller, Mrs. j. ID. Sayler
and John Grunden, who are to be
called into court the coming week to
answer for the murder of j. b. Sayler
at Crescent City on the night of July
IL. The alleged motive for the crime
Ter and Mrs. Sayler and the desire to
get rid of the latter's husband. The
attractivoness OF the woman and the
wealth and prominence Of all con-
cerned in the tragedy have fed the
popular imagination and led the public
to believe that some startling disclo-
sures will be made at the trial.
No murder committed in this Sec
ton of Illinois ever attracted the at
tention and comment the Sayler MUIR
der did at the time, and il was by the
narrowest margin that all persons i'm
plcated were not lynched when the
citizens of Crescent City heard of It.
Victim a Prominent Banker.
]. b. Sayler was vice-president OF
the State bank at Crescent City, and
the owner of hundreds of acres of rich
land and thousands of head of cattle.
His wife, Lucy Sayler, has for years
been considered one of the prettiest
women of Eastern Illinois. She was
the pet of a large circle of friends. and
when DIR. William r. Miller moved
into the town from Pennsylvania, he
Joined the same social set i'm which
Mrs. Sayler moved. They became in
fatuated with each other and it was
not long until their conduct was the
gossip of the town.
Sayler's friends are said to have re-
peatedly told him of the conduct of
his wife, but beyond occasionally re-
minding her of her duties to their
duct until a few months before the
tragedy. when there was an open rup-
ture. Just n few days before he was
killed Sayler left home and engaged
board at a hotel. He intended to
leave his wife for good, so his broth
ers. said, on the day he was murdered,
but postponed IL until the following
Monday, and that night he was shot.
Will Be Hard Fought Case.
In the coming trial the cases will
be the most stubbornly contested of
any criminal cases in the history of
Illinois. The defence Is backed by
thousands of dollars furnished by rela-
tives of DIR. Miller and Mrs Sayler.
The county has come to the aid of the
and has told the States
Attorney to draw upon 1t for any sums
needed. In addition to this money
the prosecution will be financially as
sisted by the brothers Of the murder
ed man. They are immensely wealthy
and two of them have declared they
will spend their entire fortune to con-
vict Miller, also their brothers widow.
Some of the best legal talent in this
section of the State has been engag-
I'd in the case and two attorneys from
Chicago have been employed. one by
the prosecution and the other by the
defence. There will be about two
hundred witnesses and 1t is expected

Three WeaIthiest Women.

1t is interesting to note that America
possesses not only the richest but
probably the three richest women in
the world. Next to Hetty Green comes
Mrs. Russell Sage, with a fortune OF
$3.50 900, and third is Mrs. Harri-
man. Mrs. Frederick Cortland Pen
field is credited with fortune of $780,
OOO. 900.
The four women named inherited
practically the entire estates of their
husbands. Many other American wo-
men have survived their millionaire
husbands, but in few cases have the
widows received the entire estates.
Thus, Cornelius Vanderbilt, sr., left
an estate of s125,OOO,OOO. but the wild
ow's portion was only s2,00O,OO0 and a
trust fund yielding s250,000 year.
Mrs. Marshall Field, whose husbands
estate amounted to s200.000.000. re-
ceived ss.OOO,OOO as wedding present
in lieu of dover interest. Mrs. o. III.
=. Belmont received the whole of her
husbands estate of $5,0000O0, Mrs.
Morris X. Jesup received a little over
half of the slS,OOO.00O left by her hus-
band.
