doubt of the prisoners guilt. The
opinion rendered this morning also
takes into consideration the fact that
Judge Ralph s. Latshaw, the trial
Judge, has once admitted DR.. Hyde to
bond. This bond was revoked during
the trial of the case of Judge Latshaw
and Hyde was committed to the county
jail. After the reading of the de-
cision, the bail Of DR.. Hyde was set
at $4,000.
In its opinion by which the Hyde
case was reversed and remanded for
a new trial, the supreme court de-
clared that Judge Latshaw was in
error in revoking the bond. In the
habeas corpus proceedings DR.. Hyde's
attorneys laid much stress upon that
part of the supreme courts opinion.
DR.. Hyde was represented in court
today by all the six lawyers who
looked after his interests at his first
trial.

He has lived at Sycamore and con-
Quoted his store there for years. The
Staums are looked upon as among
Sycamore's leading citizens and stand
well in the community. The dead man
is survived by his wife and one daugh-
ter, Cleone, aged Is years.
Sheriff Veith and Prosecutor Close
joined the police and officials of Syca
more in their hunt for the murderer.
They can find nothing on which to
even direct a suspicion. The theory
that possibly yeggmen may have had
hand in the crime is based on the
fact that the rear Of Staum's shop
adjoins the Sycamore bank II is
pointed out that possibly the crime
was committed by one or more per-
sons, who entered Stsums shop either
to secure tools or through mistake.
thinking that entrance to the rear OF
the shop took them into the rear Of
the bank.
The murder has created a sensation
and the entire community is aiding
in the search for the criminals.

William Staum, proprietor OF
plumbing and heating establishment
at Sycamore, near Upper Sandusky,
was murdered In the shop in the rear
of his store at noon Tuesday. Mys-
terry surrounds the crime. County au-
thorities are working on two theories.
Staum's family has advanced the
theory that the murder was perpe-
trated by secret enemy who nursed
grudge against the dead man for
years, biding his time and commit
ting the crime when he believed there
was the best chance of escaping de-
lection. County authorities think IT
possible the crime was the work Of
yeggmen bent on robbing the village
bank. Suspicion, however, points to
no one and the authorities are abso-
lutely without clews.
The crime was discovered by Paul
Black. foreman Of the tin shop. Black
left the store about II o'clock to go
to his dinner. Staum was in the
store at the time. When Black re-
turned an. hour later he found the
store locked. With key that he
carried he says that he opened the
door, proceeded to the rear room
and there found the owner lying upon
table. dead.
The floor was covered with blood.
There were fourteen wounds on
Staum's head. most of them on top.
The injuries ranged from one three
inches long and through the skull
to slight indentations. where glanc-
ing blows had been struck. The

wounds.
DIR. T. s. Montgomery was sum-
moned. He gave it as his opinion
that Staum had been dead half an
| hour. DR.. Montgomery declared it
murder and summoned the township
| justice of the peace, the county cor
oner, prosecutor and sheriff.
| From the evidence submitted II ap-
pears that Staum, when Black depart
ed, lay down on the table for n nap.
Under his head he placed suit OF
overalls, rolled up, to form pillow
| Apparently he fell asleep. Whether
he locked the store or whether he left
! It open Is not known. IL open, the
murderer or murderers simply walked
in found Staum asleep and killed him
and then locked the doors on depart
ing,
There is no evidence that the place
had been forcibly entered. The rear
door was locked with a spring lock.
| There are two windows in the rear of
the store, but neither was opened, al
though they could have been raised
and lowered with ease.
Black.who found Staum's body. as
serted he left the store to go to din
ner. Staum was in the store. No one
else was there. He says so far as he
knows, Staum had no trouble with
anyone. He insists he can find moth
ing missing from store or shop and
relatives say nothing was taken from
Staum's person.
Staum was about fifty years of age.

SLAVERY PROBLEM UNSETTLED.
The Waste OF War. q

: + u 4
The waste of war and the patrio-
tism of peace were discussed In q
sermon Sunday in Wesley M. E..
church by Rev. Samuel M. Dick. Phi.
D., pastor Of the church. That peace
is neither won nor saved by the sword
was his statement. A portion Of the
herman follows:
And he will Judge between the
nations and will decide concerning
many peoples; and they shall beat
their swords into plowshares, and
their spears into pruning hooks; ma
ton shall not lift up sword against
nation, neither shall they learn war
any more.-Isaiah 2:iv.
"This prophecy is beginning to
reach its fulfillment. When the aw-
full cost in life and treasure Is reck-
oned with, it is astonishing that sem
sible civilized men should ever resort
to war to settle any question. There
is another reason apart from its de-
structive character why war should
not be resorted to. 1t never settles
any question. The best it can do is
to restate it and put it in another
form. Take for illustration the civil
war in this country. Did it settle the
race question? Did it settle the
slavery problem? Not by any means,
but if the amount of money that war
cost us during it's progress and for
pensions since, had been expended
among the colored people of this ma
ton for industrial education and other
civilizing agencies that race today
would have been further advanced in
the scale of progressige peoples than
it will be 500 years from today under
the existing circumstances"
How far, learned Doctor, would they
be advanced, if some of that money
had been spent on the white race
along those same lines? Do you not
know that the Negro ranks first,
among the progressive races? under
the existing circumstances.
