Kansas City, Feb. 9-When the
Swope inquest opened today, DR.. Hyde
was called to the stand. His attorneys,
however, declined to let him testify,
and after much wrangling, he was ex-
cused, Miss Pearl Keller, the nurse,
was recalled. She repeated the story
of yesterday, detailing the scene at
the death bed Of Colonel Swope. After
hearing the expert testimony of DR..
Gayle, the case went to the jury.
Attorney Walsh, for Hyde, later
gave as a reason for not allowing
Hyde to testify, that there was moth
ing in the investigation to show that
Hyde was in any way responsible for
Swopes death. Walsh said he would
accept full responsibility for the re-
fnsel, and assured the public that he
believed a complete investigation
would exonerate the doctor from all
blame.
In addition to the testimony of the
nurse, Miss Keller, which was begun
yesterday and ended this morning, the
evidence given by DR.. Ludwig HEX
toen of Chicago and of Logan H..
Swope in the inquest over the body
of Colonel Swope brought develop
ments in the mystery of the million
aires death more startling than any
facts heretofore produced.
Miss Keller's detailed story Of the
last moments of Colonel Swope's life,
replete with features Of happenings in
the Swope household, produced a SEN
sation. So carefully had her story been
c1rardnd that ALTHOUGH much bo G hoon
written and rumored about the case,
not until it was given on the stand
had anyone outside of the immediate
circle interested in the inquiry heard
her narrative.
DR.. Hektoen testified that one-sixth
of a grain of strychnine was found in
one-seventh part of Col Swope's liver
The witness believed there might be
a grain in the entire organ. Half a
grain would cause death. Traces of
strychnine were found in the stomach.
Strychnine might have been inject
ed into the body after death.
He did not believe the taking of
medicine containing strychnine would
leave as much as grain of the poison
in the liver.
Tells of Plan to Change Will.
Mrs. Swope testified that Dr. Hyde
knew Of Col. Swope's Intention to give
$1,500,000 to charity and of his plan to
change his will to this effect. She also
said that Col. Swope had told DR..
Hyde he had planned to give Thomas
Swope the largest part Of his estate
She denied she entertained any i'll
feeling against DR.. Hyde

The annual report of the comptrol
Ter of the state shows some interest
ing and comparative facts.
For instance, Texas is the largest
state in area in the union, has total
taxable value of its organized coun
ties of S2,391 ,109,795, an increase OF
1906, 169. The value of the unor
ganized counties is $3,155,497. The
land increased in value $23,0O0,0O0.
Due to the abandonment of the
large cattle ranches in favor OF
farming, the number of cattle de-
creased, as did all other class of live
stock except horses. Carriages, wag.
ons, automobiles, ETC., decreased in
number during the year, but increased
in value. The falling off by nearly
three thousand in numbers is not
understood, as the general impress
sion has been that the number of
power and, other vehicles, especially
automobiles, increased in Texas.
A large increase in the mileage of
street railways is shown. For each
class of property the totals are given,
together with the comparative result,
when considered with the assessment
of 1909. A few of the more important
items are as follows:
Land assessed, 156,212,156 acres, a
decrease of 1,775,OO6 acres, value ST.
027,622,S12, increase s23,367,962; av-
erage value per acre 1851, against
$6.35 in 1909.
Town lots $5o6,1 5,2ss, an increase
of s3O,S34,717.
