MRS. SPRINGER CALLED.
She Soon Gives Place to Henwood on
Witness Stand.

Denver. June 2S.-Mrs. John w
Springer took the stand shortly before
noon today in the trial of Frank H.
HenWood, charged with the murder of
George E. Copeland and S. Louis Won
Phul at the Brown Palace hotel a
month ago.
The only other witness this morn
ing had been George NJ Russell, the
bar keeper, who had been recalled,
and who testified that Won Phul was
facing Henwood when the latter fred
at him.
The prosecution completed its evil
dence in unexpectedly short time yes
terday afternoon, but the defense is
expected to consume a good part of
the time today in the examination of
that it was in shielding Mrs. Springer
from Won PhuPs unwelcome atten-
lions that Henwood incurred Won
PhuPs enmity, thus leading up to the
fight which resulted in the shooting.
Mrs. Springer was on the stand but
in order that the defendant, Henwood,
might first testify.
Replying to a question as to why
he thought Won Phul carried a revol-
Yer, Henwood related the events oc-
curing at downtown department
store on the afternoon preceding the
shooting. He had an appointment, he
said, with Won Phul at $50 o'clock in
the latter's room at the hotel, but Won
Phul was not there. Instead, he
found Won Phul, Mrs. Springer and
the latter's mother in the store.
He accosted Mrs. Springer, saying:
Isabel, you are not doing as you
promised in this matter. You have
come down here to meet this man
when you promised me faithfully you
would never see him again"
Then Won Phul approached, accord
ing to the witness, and denounced the
latter as an eavesdropper. 'I've got a
notion to spill you all over this place"
Won PhuI said.
Finally the party returned to the
hotel and on the way back, according
to the witness. Won PhuI abused him
in the most vile terms
After testifying to his sincere friend
ship for the Springers and to threats
by Won Phul to send to Mr.. Springer
letters written by Mrs. Springer to
Won Phul, the witness asserted that
Mrs. Springer "worshiped her hus-
band
At this period the witness broke
down and cried bitterly. Judge Whit
ford then ordered a recess

Chicago, June 23.-Through the mis-
take Of a railroad company, Mrs Mary
E. White. Of this city, found herself

cause in place of his necessary tools

containing a number of articles Ct

urn.
The railroad company at New York
telegraphed Pittsburg, and in reply re-
ceived the following message:

ing in its place mans suitcase with
clothes and tools in on train No. 16.

The clothes and the crematory urn
were started back. and today Mrs.
White is expected to be in possession
of her husbands ashes.

DECIDES TO RESIGN.
The French Cabinet Fails to Secure a
Vote of Confidence.

Paris, June 23-The French cabinet
has decided to resign. The deputies
voted against the government 23S to PA
and this evening the ministers decided
to present their designations to Presi-
dent Fallieres.
The adverse vote of the chamber was
due to the admission by General
Goiran, the minister of war, in the SELL
ate last Tuesday that the present or
ganization of the army does not pro-
vide for a commander-in-chief in The
time of war, the direction OF operations
in the case of war being in the hands
of a council Of war made up of the
minister of war and the generals of the
army.
This announcement by the minister
came in the nature of a revelation to
many parlianentaJians. Today in the
chamber. Deputy EIesse interpolated
the government on the subject and OPP
posed the system of military control as
outlined by General Goiran. There
upon the government asked for a vote
of confidence and failed to obtain a
majority. The Monis cabinet WAS
formed on March ? last following the
resignation OF the BRAND ministry on
February 27.

with the city departments il is found
that all is well in Topeka.
The fear that has been expressed by
the officials the last week was caused
by the fact that people We're sprink-
ling their lawns indiscririna tely end
that the patrons who are on flat water
rates were apparently allowing their
hydrants to run wide open the entire
day. Since their warnings the people
have economical with the water and
the pressure on the big pumps has been
felt.
1t has been arranged with the street
department to flush the streets between
the hours Of 4 and in the morning.
This does away with the strain on the
pumps between the hours Of and s
when everyone is arising in the morn
ing.
The water in the city parks has been
cut off to allow a better pressure over
the city.

dangered the city districts, the plant

Warning.

The plea made to the people Of To-

Journal last evening by the city water
works officials asking that care be Ia

the dry weather, met with satisfactory
response. The people did all Of their
lawn sprinkling last night between the
hours of $3.50 and $50 ana the pumps
at the waterworks plant were relieved
from the strain of the last two weeks.
Today H. P. Miller, city commissioner
of waterwOrks, superintendent Shaw
and Assistant superintendent Stevens
made an inspection of the water sit

Topeka was fortunate in having Il sys-
