THREE VEN|REMEN
FOR HYDE TRIAL
One Resident of jackson County Says
He Had Never Heard of SWope
Murder Case.

Kansas City, Mo, Oct. 26.-Only
three of eighteen yeniremen examined
in the second murder trial of DR.. b..
Clark Hyde for the death of Colonel
Thomas Swope were tentatively ac-
cepted as jurors by both sides here yes
terday. In ALL seyenty-nine veniremen
responded to the summons. Twenty
of them were excused for various rea-
sons, so there now remains out of the
second panel forty unexamined venire-
men.
One of the men tentatively accepted,
Nelson w. Talbot, of Grain Valley, Mo-,
said on examination that although he
had lived in this county almost two
years, he had never heard of the Hyde
case until he was summoned yesterday.
He expressed the unqualified opinion
that he would make a fair and impair
tial juror and was readily accepted by
both sides.
The defense yesterday reiterated its
objection of Tuesday towards the draw
ing of the yenire and asked for the dis
missal of it, Judge e. Porterfield took
the matter under advisement, and said
he would pass on the motion when the
present venire was exhausted. The
court session last night lasted until
$50 o'clock an dnight sessions are
probable.

NEGRO HOTEL At GOWETA
IS BURNED TO GROUND

Coweta, Okla, Oct. 26.-Once more
this little town is in the undisputed
power of the white man. Only few
negroes remain and the citizens are
well organized. An almost perfect
military-like guard is being maintained.
The Katy" hotel, a rooming house
for negroes, was burned to the ground
last night. 1t was in this place that
the two negroes who held up Homer
Ray escaped and were later found by
the officers in the company of half a
dozen others. All were heavily armed
and the hotel resembled an arsenal.
James, the proprietor, had always been
regarded as one of the good niggers"
of the town. But the white men learn
ed their lesson and last night they
burned the place.
There is talk of applying the torch
to a few more undesirable habitations
of negroes and several more blacks
will be driven from the town.
Pete Williams, who shot at City
Marshal Virgil Hurt with rife and
who is believed to have fired the shot
that killed Carman Oliver, was given
his preliminary hearing in Wagner
yesterday and bound over to the higher
court on bond of 10000 He was
unable to make the bond.

WILL SELECT NEW
PRESIDENT SOON
Dean Monett of Law School Has Given
Satisfaction as Head of University
But Wants to Be Relieved.

Oklahoma City, Oct. 26.-At a meet
ing of the state board of education
Wednesday, it was decided to hasten
the selection of president of the
state university, so that he can be in
stalled by the first of the year. Dean
Monet of the law department, who is
now acting as president, has been CIV
ing full satisfaction to the board, but
he has requested that he be relieved
from his extra duties as soon as pos
sible.
Among the men we are considering
there are two of the greatest educa-
tors in the country" said Superintend-
ent R. H. Wilson Wednesday. 1--WE
have eight or ten men in view, some
of them from the north, some from
the south and some from the east. All
of them stand high as university men,
so that when we do make our decision,
the people may rest assured that the
university of Oklahoma will have a
president of whom they will not need
be ashamed"
The board adjourned at 8 o'clock
Wednesday afternoon without reaching
any definite conclusion as to the selec-
tion of a president, but another meet
ing probably will be called within the
next thirty days, at which time it is
hoped that the matter will be in a more
definite shape
Another question to be considered
at the next meeting is the erection of
public buildings for state institutions,
out of the fund obtained from the bond
issue of $1,750,000 that has just re-
Gently been foated. This is thought
to be one of the most important mat
ters that will come up this year, by
members of the board, as new build
ings are needed at several of the state
schools
Letters are now being sent to the
various county superintendents over
the state, requesting them to send a
| list of all schools doing high school
work, so that the board may ascertain
how many students are taking the
ninth, tenths, eleventh and twelfth
grade courses. When the lists are tab
ulated an effort will be made to affiil
late all of the schools doing this work

3oocc Tons Which Sold at Aver

Oklahoma City, Oct 26.-Transpor-

innate that 95 per cent of the Okla
homa broomcorn crop has now been
marketed and moved. About an aver
age yield was harvested, despite the
lateness Of the rains A wider margin
Of quality variation than normal is
noted for the season, and this has pro-
duced a corresponding wider variation
in the price, which ranged all the way
from $100 to 5000 a ton. Broomcorn
of an average grade of good quality
is now bringing $175 a ton. The per
cent yet remaining unsold is chiefly
composed of the poorer quality grades.
According to figures CLEANED by W.
E. Killinger, who operates in Okla
homa City the largest broom factory
in the state, Oklahomas s average an
nual production is 10000 tons. At the
prevailing prices this production rep
resents total money value of $5250,-
GOO This is said to be 80 per cent of
the total production of the world.

ping points are Elk City, Shattuck and
Woodward. Liberal, which is just over
the Kansas line, ships heavy consign-
ments of the Oklahoma crop,
The consumption capacity of the Ok
lahoma factories is 1000 tons annually,
one-fourth of which is handled by Mr.,

tories are located at FL Reno, Geary,

DR.. COOK LEFT STAGE
UNDER HOOTS FROM DANES

Copenhagen, Oct. 26-Dr Frederick
A. Cooks Theatrical attempt last night
to vindidate his reputation by lecture
in the hall where two years ago he
addressed the royal family and some
of the most prominent people of Den
mark, under the auspices of the geo
graphical society ON the occasion of
his triumphal entrance into the capi-
tai, resulted in extremely riotous
scenes.
Dr. Cook finally was compelled to re-
tire ingloriously by the back door.
Ever since it was announced that
Cook was returning to this city to lee
ture. the newspapers and the people
have been strongly stirred and threats
of violence were freely circulated.
Dr. Norman Nansen, the Danish ex-
plorer, who formerly supported Cook,
started the trouble by loudly denounc-
ing Cook as pure swindler. The eli
max was reached when a alleged pic
ture of the north pole was thrown upon
the screen.
The audience was so hostile that
Cook stopped his lecture and with
drew. He was escorted by strong de-
tachment of police to his hotel through
side streets.

NEW LOCAL OPTION BILL
FILED WITH SEGRETAR

Oklahoma City, Oct. 26.-The Okla
homa local option league has prepared
new bill which was filed in the office
of the secretary of state today, looking
towards the substitution of local op-

petition for the signatures of legal Yot-
ters will be circulated simultaneously

vigorously until all the voters of the
state favoring the measure have ap-
pended their signatures.

prohibition and the adoption of the
measure would put the matter of reg
ulating the liquor traffic up to the var
ious county units. 1t prescribes the
manner of holding local option cleo

the license system under which it
