a Letter
Revealing Flans for the Murder
of Stanley Ketchel.

Springfield, Mo-, Oct 28.-A letter
received today by the chief of police
of Springfield, signed Mrs. Maud
Nugget" and mailed in Salt Lake city.
purports to give facts of an alleged
conspiracy Matched by Walter Dipley
and Mrs. Goldie Smith to rob and at
tack Stanley KetcheL the middle
weight champion pugilist, who was
shot and fatally wounded near Con-
way, Mo-, October Is.
Mrs. Nugget asserts that the Smith
woman wrote her of the plans against
Ketchel and the chief of police has
wired the officials at Salt Lake City
to learn the identity of Mrs Nugget
and if possible gain possession of the
Smith letter If it exists.
Dipley and Mrs. Smith are having
their preliminary hearing at Marsh
field, Mo, where they are held on a
charge of murder. The hearing be-
gan this morning. The first testi-
mony introduced was practically the
same as that offered at the coroner's
inquest but the state promised to pre-
sent some new evidence and damag-
ing testimony later. It is likely that
all the evidence will not be in before
tomorrow.

law provides air tight secrecy in the
matter as a recompense for making a
man tell everything asked, no matter
how hesitant or reluctant he may be.
That the inquisition is a profitable one
seems evident from the number of
witnesses and the length of time they
take to tell their stories. If there is
any liquor traffic and who is guilty if
there is. no longer is so difficult of
discovery on account of the inquisition
provisions, and some raids are immi-
nent.

the movement, and we are therefore

at our command to meet them; being
somewhat handicapped as to funds, we
have to make up for this deficiency
along educational lines.

enough to give me a leaf out of the
book of your experience, along with
other information in your possession,
