TWO MEN ARE
ARRESTED FOR THE
SNOWMAN MURDER

ELLSWORTH, Kan, Oct. 21.--
Although two men are detained as
suspects in the Snowman murder in
vestigation, one being held here
and one at New Kirk, Okla, local
officers have little confidence that
either catch will prove of value.
The New Kirk suspect was pick
ed up by a sheriff yesterday upon
a telegraphic description of Charles
Marzyek, the ex-convict, who is
said to have sworn vengeance on
the Snowman family and is sought
by officers.
The man held at the county jail
here was taken into custody near
the Kanopalis salt works yesterday
morning. He appeared to be a
tramp.
Detectives and Sheriff Bradshaw
questioned him at length but he
gave them no information of any
great value.

of Tammany Hall---Will the Band

NEW YORK, Oct. William
R. Hearst's announcement that he
was back in the regular democratic
fold caused much speculation in
political circles yesterday regarding
the fate of the Independence league.
This organization was founded by
Mr.. Hearst and nominated candi-
dates, supported by him, in the last
national and state campaign. The
question now is to what extent,
if at all, he will use it in the
coming political battle
Mr.. Hearst declared himself last
night at the opening rally of the
local fusion campaign in the first
public address he has made since
his return from abroad.
II am speaking" he said, as a
good citizen, I hope, and also as
good democrat. Mr. Murphy

ACTIVE OPERTIONS

The Tonopah 76 Consolidated Min
ing company, which was incorporat-

the laws of this state, are arrang-

their splendid group of claims west
of Tonopah.
The company owns the 76 Claim,
patented, the Pactolus, Wonder and
Red Rock Extension claims and the
Sage Fraction and 76 Fraction, ad-
joining the West End mine on the
north and the Tonopah Extension
mine on the south. These claims
are virtually between two big pro-
ducing mines and, in time, must
become a producer.
The directors have ordered 100,-
900 shares of treasury stock sold
at 10 cents share. This revenue

He declared he would continue
his fight against the "undemocratic
principles of Tammany hall, but
that the greatest benefit loyal dem

democracy was to free it of the
the hindrance and handicap of
Tammany hall and Murphy"
Mr. Hearts audience was COM
posed almost entirely of republicans
and members of the Independence
league and his declaration caused
surprise and widespread comment.

OCCUPIED BY
ITALIAN FORCES

BENGHAZL, Tripoli, Oct. 21.-
The Italian fleet under Rear Ad-
miral Audrey bombarded this city
and landed 1000 men,
who, after brisk battle, occupied
d portion of the town. The greater
part of the troops, however, camped
on the beach last night.
The Turks refused to surrender
and made stubborn resistance.
The expeditionary force instructed
to occupy Benghazi arrived in the
roadstead Wednesday morning, con-
voyed by the battleships, cruisers
and two torpedo boat divisions.
Rear Admiral Audrey notified
the Turkish commander that unless
he capitulated Benghazi in the
morning the town would be bonn
barded. No reply having been re.
ceivGd, the bombardment began al

when detachment of sailors ant
troops was debarked.

were received with a sharp rifle
fire from the Turks. The Italian!

and indications were that Manning
and probably Green would escape

The death penalty which the low

ture voted to abolish this year, be-
came a prominent issue in Judge
Walter Bordwells court yesterday
in the effort to get a jury to try
James B. Mcnamara for the murder
of Charles ]. Haggerty, who was
killed in the Los Angeles Times
explosion and fire year ago.
The sentiment against it caused
surprised comment among the east
erners in the court room.
Four successive talesmen under
examination by the state said with
more or less emphasis that they
We're opposed to infliction of the
death penalty. Ernest f. Decker,

when questioned by the court, said
fatty that he would not return a
verdict of guilty in a capital crime
ON circumstantial evidence.
The cases of T. w Adams and
A. r. Mcintosh who also opposed
inliction of the death penalty on
circumstantial evidence, were taken
under consideration by the court,
making in all five talesmen now
under challenge for cause.
S. H. Manning, already passed
for cause by the defense, also was
passed by the state, being the first
talesman to pass both sides He
probably will be the first final ju-
ror unless excused by peremptory
challenge.
F. d. Green, a retired rancher
also was examined by the state
and passed for cause.
