FLEE AFTER FIRST BLOW?
Opinion That Negro Did Not Ali Ben
jan1in Plat

Would a negro, who is usually very
Superstitious and afraid to remain
alone near a dead body. stop long
enough to drag a body over the floor
and continue to beat the brains out?
This question is being asked in re-
gard to the murder of Benjamin Plat,
who was found dead with his skull
crushed behind the counter of his
store at SO North Kansas avenue, a
week ago tonight
The identity of the guilty man re-
mains as much a mystery as it was
the hour the body was discovered.
Previously a negro was seen to enter
the store and the police have held
the theory that a negro committed the
crime. Outsiders say that a negro
would have been apt to have fed as
soon as the first blow was struck, while
indications are that Plat had been
dragged behind the counter and beat
en- ten or twelve times after the first
blow.
People who are acquainted with the
characteristics of the ignorant negro
say that they are too superstitious in
regard to supposed dead bodies to re-
main willingly alone in ths presence
of one. From this the opinion is that
a white man committed the crime.
On the other hand, the Cohen muir
der at Wichita, in which q cobb1er was
found dead with his skull crushed, was
the work of a negro. He wac killed
in much the same way. The negro
was caught.

GOES BACK TO 1850.
for Baldwin Estate Rakcs
Court Records.

Los Angeles, March Thousands
of words of legal opinions rendered in
will contests dating as far back as
1850 were cited today by attorneys
for the Lucky" Baldwin estate in
combating the claim of Beatrice
Anita Turnbull to a daughters share
of the late turfman's millions.
Attorney Bradner w. Lee, who
drew the will which the young Boston
girl has for three months been striv-
ing to break, continued the argument
begun on the motion for an instructed
verdict in favor of the estate. He
confined himself to the legal aspect of
the alleged marriage of Baldwin and
Mrs. Lillian Ashley Turnbull, mother
of the petitioner.
Like. his colleagues who spoke yes
terday, Lee asserted that a common
law marriage such as Mrs. Turnbull
alleged Baldwin had entered into with
her must be supported by a general
and undivided recognition of the par
ties as husband and wife to have
standing in law.
There has been no general and
undivided repute in this case" Lee
continued. Moreover the legal ca
reer of the petitioners mother herself
would cast doubt upon such a sup
position, for it must be remembered
that she once sued Baldwin for seduc-
ton after the alleged marriage is said
to have taken place.

K. U. BILL is PASSED.
Gives Back Small Part of the Fees
collected.

The Kansas university budget was
passed by the house in committee OF
the whole this afternoon in its original
form excepting for one amendment by
amendment gives back to the universe
ty S1O.S56 of the $4SSs6 in fees that go
into the general fund of the state
treasury under the provisions of the
bill.
Moore of Harper advocated this COM
promise on the fee question that had
split the house at the morning session.
The Don Carlos amendment, which is
a substitute for section of the bill,
reads as follows:
Section 6. That all incidental and
matriculation fees collected by the
University OF Kansas during the Iiscal
years 1912 and 1918, shall be paid in
to the state treasury monthly and
shall become a part of the general
revenue fund of the state and all 9TH
er fees and moneys collected by the
university during the same period of
time, other than the interest on the
permanent endowment fund, snail be
paid into the state treasury monthly
and the same are hereby reappro-
priated for the general maintenance
purposes of the university; and the
state auditor is hereby authorized to
draw his warrants on the state treas
urer for the purpose above specified
upon sworn ltenlZeu vouchers dppION-

Versity of Kansas
The house is considering the normal
school appropriation bill this after
non and also the bill divorcing the
Pittsburg and Emporia schools.
Carney of Cloud again tried to get
the Concordia normal school amend
ment through, asking for only $4,000
year maintenance for the normal
school in his town. Carney declared
that his sum was less than that re-
quired for a smokestack for the En-
poria normal in order that William
Allen White might not be aroused by
the smoke to yell fire. Carney made
a great plea for his Concordia normal
school, but his motion was defeated

THEY SCARED HIS WIFE.
Mexican Consul at FL Paso Complains
of HoOdIums.

Ell Paso, March 1.--Antonio V.
Lomeli, the Mexican consul at Ell
Paso. has complained to the Mexican
government of indignities offered to
himself and his family by persons
whom he believes to be Americans.
Senior Lomeli says that he first COM
planned of the treatement to Mayor
Kelly of Ell Paso and getting no reply,
then referred the trouble to the au-
thorities at Mexico City.
The annoyances, according to Con-
sui Lomeli, occurred on the night of
February 81 when, near midnight, a
crowd of men awakened his family by
shouting viva Madero.'' viva
Orozco" and death to Diaz" outside
his residence in this city.
1.-The crowd was composed of
Americans" said Senior Lomeli. "for
L could tell by the way they pro-
nounced Spanish names. Several let
tiers had been sent me threatening to
dynamite the consulate and the dem
onstration greatly frightened my wife
and she almost swooned."
Sheriff Peyton j. Edwards said to-
day: 81 received a request from Gov
ernor Colquitt to investigate the Mexi-
can consulate complaint and find that
crowd of boys gathered about the
place and shouted. They were there
only a few minutes. That is all there

WANT RELEASE FROM CLAIM.
State Will Pay $4,000 if City Gives Re-
ceipt for $65. 900.

In communication to Mayor Billiard
the ways and means committee of the
house in the state legislature has tried
to cancel all Topeka paving claims
against the state by offering to pay
about $4,000 for paving that was done
last year The entire legal paving bill
amounts to S65, 900.
The mayor became so Disguised
with such an offer that he has post
poned any action until something else
can be done. That the state of Kan
sas would try to dodge a legal claim
of $4,000 and then attempt to cover up
the entire debt by paying $4,000 is a
mystery to the mayor.
Il can't understand this move by the
state" said the mayor. Kansas has
never refused to pay paving assess
ments in other cities and here is a
debt of $4,000 that the citizens of To-
peka have to pay out of their own
pockets-and the state laughs at the
idea of paying it. Now they come and
offer to pay a little bill of $4,000 in
case the city cancels the entire debt.
I am ashamed of such actions-and
l would think the legislators would feel
likewise"
