State Railway Commission
er Will Probe Wrecks
on Hill Road.

Tacoma, Wash, Nov. 2S.-As a
result of recent wrecks on the Great
Northern the state railroad commits
sion has decided to investigate 1t
was announced here today that the
commission will hold a hearing on
the recent wreck at Milan, 20 miles
from Spokane, next Tuesday at $50
o'clock at the Great Northern depot
at Spokane.
We are going very thoroughly
into the question Of why there are
so many wrecks on the Great North
ern," said Commissioner Jones to-
day. I'VE will have proper officials
before us to explain. It is claimed
by the Great Northern that there are
no more wrecks on its lines than on
the Northern Pacific, but when you
stop to remember that the Northern
Pacific operates over three times as
much road in Washington and three
times as many trains there must be
some reason why wrecks on the G.
N. are proportionately so much more
frequent"
1t is recalled today that in its
1908 report the commission in re-
viewing Great Northern accidents
for that year indicated that unless
conditions were remedied slow or
der, limiting the operation of pas
senger trains TO Is miles an hour,
would be issued. Railroad men say
the Great Northern roadbed AMI roll
ing stock are the equal of any rail-
road in the state.
The Spokane hearing will be at
tended by Cairman Harry Fairchild,
Commissioner Jones and Assistant
Attorney General w. V. Tanner, rep
resenting the state. Commissioner
j. C. Lawrence will not be able to
attend.

COLD AND STORMY
WEATHER
Whole Country to Feel Some
Winter Weather Says
Chief Moore.

Washington, Nov 28.-Storms and
cold weather generally throughout
the country are predicted by the
weather bureau for this week.
Chief Moore issued the following
forecast today:
The charts indicate that in the
present week a series of storms of
marked intensity will cross the Uni
ted States and that temperature
changes preceding the storm and al
so following the disturbances will be
decided
"A disturbance that now covers the
Mississippi valley will advance east
ward. Another disturbance that is
off the North Pacific coast will ad-
vance slowly eastward, attended by
general precipitation, and reach the
Atlantic states by Thursday. 1t will
be preceded by rising temperature
and in all probability will be follow
ed by a widespread change to colder
weather.

AFTER SUGAR
TRUST
Action Started Today in
u. S. Court Asking
for Dissolution.

New York, Nov. 2S.-Attacking
the American Sugar Refining Co.,
Familiarity known as the sugar trust,
as a lawlesS combination, the federal
government today filed its long eX-
pected suit for dissolution of the
corporation. The petition was filed
by Henry A. Wise, district attorney
in the United States circuit court.
Suit is brought under the Sher-
man antitrust law and it is expected
to be one of the most important ac-
lions of it's kind ever undertaken in
this court. One OF the allegations
is that H. O. Havemeyer, of New
York, received sic, 100000 common
stock in the National Sugar Rein
ing company as gift at the time
the corporation was formed to take
into the combination the four indie
pendent concerns, the National, New
York Sugar Refining Co, Mollen-
hauer Sugar Refining company and
T. w. McCahan Sugar Refining Co.
These companies, up to 1900, were
u =
American company determined to ac-
quire them. Under the plan inaugu-
rtaed by Havemeyer, John E. Par
sons and James H. Post, the Amer
lean company was formed and took
over the four plants, Post obtaining
options on them.
When the new stock was de,
liyered, the petition sets forth, Post
delivered 100000 shares of common
stock of the entire issue with a par
value of $4,000, 900, to Havemeyer
The petition shows that it was is
sued in the first instance contrary to
law and in violation of the corpora
tons franchise and for no consider
alton. as both said Post and Have
meyer then we'll knew The state
ment alleges that when the Ameri-
can company took over the four
Philadelphia companies, Franklin
Sugar Refining Co., Sprecllles Re
ining Company, Delaware Sugar
house and E. c. knight company,
Havemeyer and his brother Theo-
dore bought 45 per cent of the stock
of the Spreckles company and then
sold it at large profit to the Amer
lean company, of which both were
directors.
In general the petition charges
that the defendants for some time
past and now are engaged in an I'M
lawful combination and conspiracy
to restrain the sugar trade and to
monopolize the same. The govern
ment petitions the court TO decree
that the defendants have been en-
gagged in an unlawful combination
and 20 restrain and mCnopoIiZe The
trade, that their officers should be
restrained from carrying out the
purpose of such unlawful combina-
ton, that the American, National
and Western companies be restrain
cd from engaging in interstate or
foreign commerce, that shares of
capital stock in the National, Utah
Idaho Sugar company, Great West
ern and Continental companies for
merly held by H. O. Havemeyer We're
illegally secured and are now being
unlawfully used by his executors
and the government asks that they
be enioined from further using the
powers incident to the shares SO held
and that the court grant such gen.
eral relief as may be proper by way
of injunction, receivership or other
wise.

Newspaper Correspondents
Declare Mexican Revolu-
ton Has Only Started.

Ell Paso, Tex, Nov. 2S.-Two staff
correspondents of the Ell Paso Her
aid who returned last night, assert
that there is every prospect of fur
Their trouble in chihuahua and Du-
range. They declare that 80 per
cent of the natives of that part of
Mexico are against the Diaz govern
ment. and those not openly support
ing the revolutionists are passive.
They state that the revolutionists
are not made up of poems and ban
dts, but of farmers, mechanics and
others. The insurrectionists seem to
have plenty of arms, ammunition
and plenty of money.
The American victims Of the riot
ing at Parral Monday were Edward

Testimony Reviewed.

In analyzing the states testimony,
Lawyer Thomas look the position
that the prosecution must rest its
whole case on the testimony of Net
tie Sutton so far as the alleged
crime is concerned.
Assuming for the time being that
Mrs. Totten is guilty Of murder in
the first degree as found by verdict,
the indictment against Mrs. Beebe
on the same charge was then read.
1t was then pointed out that the
state must show Mrs. Beebe's delib-
crate and premejitated malice; that
she aided and counseled in the COM
mission of the crime. The mere fact
of her presence does not fasten any
crime upon the defendant.
Only one remark made by the de-
PENDANT was shown to have any bear
ing upon the case. That was her
question, DO you see that gum"
At the time it was made, one wire
had already been cut. Sutton made
no reply. These words were uttered
sometime before the shooting occur
red and Mrs. Totten paid no attention
to them at the time.
Mrs. Beebe did not ask Mrs. Tot
ten to do anything; did not even
look at her. There was no further
demonstration; no aid offered or
given These were only scare words
used TO discourage the Young man
from doing what he was about to
do. There was no threat, not even
implied.
Circumstances Considered.
This being the strongest part of
Miss Sutton's testimony, the balance
of the record shows there were modi-
flying facts. Mrs. Beebe was stand
ing at Jim Sutton's right hand and
they were both facing in the oppo-
site direction from those in the bug

1t was almost 1880 this morning
when the state rested its case against
Mrs. Beebe. Attorney Thomas I'M
mediately asked that the jury be
dismissed for the rest OF the
morning. He then entered a motion
that the court instruct the jury TO
bring in verdict of mot guilty." the
reason being that not enough evil
dence had been introduced by the
state to prove the defendant guilty
of any offcnse whatsoever.

VERDICT Of I NOT GUILTY"
ASKED IN bEEBE CASE
State Rested It's Case This Forenoon and Defendants
Attorney Sought an Instructed Verdict Sheriff is
Learning Caution in Care of State Exhibits-Testi-
mony Lacks Sensational Features of Totten Case.

Judge Grimshaw at 2:f5 this af-
ternoon denied the motion of the de-
Tense Of Mrs. Heebe that the court
should instruct the jury to bring i'm
verdict of mot guilty.. Before
giving his decision Judge Grimshaw
He called attention TO the fact that
if the discriminating circumstances
regarding the defendant were elimi-
mated one by one, the state would
probably have no case. but the cir
cumstances upon the whole are to be
considered; that they show that the
defendant and her co-defendant, Mrs.
Totten, by Encouragement, went out
to construct fence. 1t is unusual
for people TO take along repeating
shot guns loaded to the muzzle for
the purpose of building fences.
After completing the task, having
taken along lunch with them, they
sat by the spot where trouble was eX-
pected and remained an hour and Il
half. The shot gun, when the alter
cation took place, was not made to
appear until Mrs. Beebe, the defend
ant, made the threat. All that took
place after this threat shows that the
defendant was involved in the alter
cation from the start until the fatal
end. The jury was ordered back in
TO the room.
States Attorneys Argue.
The session this afternoon began
at 1:30 with Prosecutor Kemp max
ing Il statement of the reason why
the court should deny the motion of
the defense to dismiss the case. He
quoted authority and went into the
evidence in detail to show prear-
ranged plot and a carrying out of
that plot according to agreement. He
was then followed by Attorney Reeves
making a brief statement in which
he bore down on the fact that when
Mrs. Beetle was told by her daughter
TO get ont OF the way, $50 we can
shoot him. her act of obedience of
getting cut of the way made her an
active participant in the crime.

4 CASE EoR INrEsTIGATIOv.

To those who have been asserting that
virtue is now I'm the ascendant I'm Al
hany and that there is no use Of invest
eating legislative corruption Senator
Allds's testimony on the stand yesterday
must have been a shock. Only last year,
while legislation was pending which
would facilitate the collection OF claims
against the state. Senator Aids acted rs
counsel for the Argus Printing Com
pany. which had a claim Of $4,000
against the state. When the legislation
WAS passed the suit was settled by
agreement and the Senator received a
counsel Fee Of somewhere between
$1,000 and 5000 in bills" The attOr-
hey Of record i'm the ease received only
about S1.OOO FOR his fee.
Mr.. Allds's name appeared nowhere il
the case. 80 far as he knew, he testi-
fed. there was not any single paper on
earth. any voucher. any receipt. any
llrief. any document of any description
I'm any public or private Office anywhere
that would Indicate that he had any
thing 10 do with this case as a lawyer.
Thus he received large fee for legal
services the detailed nature Of which he
was unable to specify and a fee paid
with an obvious effort at secrecy.
Everybody is AT liberty 10 form his
own opinion regarding the nature Of the
services for which Mr.. Aids was paid.
but here is "A matter no older than a
year ago which requires investigation.
A Senator. While q bill beneiitinS the so
called printing ring" is pending, is IN

Aids was receiving substantial counsel
