RUTHERFORD
 NEXT 0N TRIAL
SUMMONS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR STATE WITNESSES FOR
 MONDAY MORNING.
Indications are That the Most Sen sationaI Tragedy in County for
 Years Will be up for Trial

Circuit Clerk Ali Wilmington has issued the summons for states wit nesses in the case of the State vs. John Rutherford. charged under first degree indictment for the killing of Oscar Chitweed in this city last De cember. The fact that the prosecuting attorney has caused these summons to be all issued indicates that next Monday morning when the state is questioned on the case, the prosecutor will be ready to announce ' ready for trial"
 The defense has made no formal an poppcerpent in the case.s-but has all ways indicated that an immediate trial would be satisfactory especially after the court of last resort had re- fused the defendants in the case lib erty on bond.
 The trial is scheduled for Monday morning. and the John Rutherford case comes first on the docket before the Ben Murray case. The case will attract widespread interest. partly be- cause of the fact that former county officials will be mentioned frequently in the case. Attorneys George w. Murphy, A. J. Murphy, Rector and Sawyer. James E. Hogue and E C. Rutherford will represent the defend ant, and the state will be represented by Prosecuting Attorney J. B. Wood and Assistant Scott Wood.
 There will probably be more than one hundred witnesses used in the trial of the case. and it is likely that more than two weeks time will be consumed. There is much question as to whether jury can be secured in this county to act on the case be- cause of the wide publicity given the tragedy and the former and latter in cidents touching on 1t.

MANY PROSTRATED
 BY HEAT WAVE
ENTIRE NORTHERN SECTION SHELTERED IN HOT WAVE
 WHICH BREAKS RECORD.
Washington and Richmond Exper- fence Terrific Heat, Broken by
 Timely Showers

Washington, May IS. All the way from the Rocky mountains to the At lantic coast stretches hot wave to- day with temperatures almost break ing records in various cities and eaus ing prostrations galore. From out Of the north Pacific, however, relief is coming in a storm with considerable weather in it's wake.
 The storm moved east today over the northern planes states bringing high winds and showers. It was scheduled by Weather Forecaster Bowie tonight to reach the Missis sippi Valley tomorrow It will be fol- lowed said Professor Bowie. 'by a general break in the hot wave ever the Mississippi and plains states within the next thlrty-six or forty eight hours.
 The heat wave is due to moderate in eastern states Saturday or Sunday
 Washington and Richmond were today the hottest spots in the weather map, the official record running up to |95 as against Washington's season record breaking 9d week ago. Bal timore, Louisville and other cities however, were close competitors.

men will map out the course to be
 pursued. pr Gomez vii arrive In
 Mexico City few days later.
 The first matter to be taken up, 1t
 IS thought will be to effect an ami caDle addiction by the present gov ernors and the production of men
 popular enough to bring quiet through out the states.
 The proposition of new federal government will be considered
 Prejudices will be swept aside, accord ing to the best intentions of Senor Madero and his followers. and de serving men will be named for i'm portant posts.
 Gossip has 1t that six of the eight men of the new cabinet will be Ma derists, but with the suggestion of rebels two days ago of a man like General Gonzales Salez. an officer in the federal army, for the ministry Of was with the practical choice today of General Roscona for that post. there will be little distinction be- tween the new progress part.v
 One thing is certain. Of the mem hers of the present cabinet, only Senor De La Barra will remain after reconstruction days. The passing of Jose Yves Limantour, the minister of finance for many years a world fig ure in Mcxico's economic develop ment, if is said, is in line with the personal wish of that individual to be relieved of the brain racking activity of bond floating and monetary stand ards.
 Dr. Vasquez Gomez will occupy some post in the cabinet, perhaps the portfolio of governacion. a position of political strength, though he really prefers public instruction. It will only be for short time, however, as Dr. Gomez is expected 70 be the candi date for vice president with Senor Madero as presidential candidate.
 The status of the peace agreement is about as well defined among the insurreetos as among the representa-. tives of the federal government. Op inion here tonight is that the armis- ticc will he prolonged while President Diaz is in office and later until ami- cable relations are established be- yond doubt.
 On the provisional governors will devolve the task of keeping the in surrectos from beginning little revo lutions of their own but the combinel influence of insurrecto political chieftians and federal alike will be exerted in keeping the sodiery quiet while Mexico passes through it's po- litical travail.

JEWS FEAR
 MASSACRES
RECURRENCE OF HORRIBLE SCENES OF f9o3-4 FEARED BY
 JEWS OF RUSSIA.
Anti Semetic and Reactionary Eie- ment Assums Attitude Similar to That Proceeding Former
 Massacres.

New York May iS.-The American Jewish Committee, when asked today by the Associated Press for it's views respecting the recent despatches rom Kiev, authorized the following state ment
 The committee Is satisfied that only a wide publicity can avert a re- currence of the horrible massacres, instiggated hy the Russian government which took place between 1903 and 1906, especially at Kishineff, Odessa and Bialystok, when thousands of Jews were massacred and millions ot property destroyed.
 'fhe monstrous and infamous stor ies recently sent out by the Russian government from St Petersburg. kiev and Moscow and published in American newspapers respecting the alleged murder of boy at Kiev, are precisely similar to unfounded taies circulated by the Russian govern ment previous to the Kishineff, Odes sa and Bialystok Pogroms.
 investigation shows that the stor- ies which have been sent out to American newspapers are foundsd up- on haselcss calumnies which appear ed several weeks ago in the well known anti-semetic and reactionary |organ Russkoye znomya, Koiojol Semschtna and especially in the fire most organ of the reactionaries, the Novoe Vrcmya. as is well known, IS the mouthpiece of the Russian gov ernment in St. Petefsburg. The author of the article in the Novoe vreyma in one Prince Mentchi- kow. one of the star editors of that paper. He was formerly liberal and follower of Tolstoi but within the last ten years has sold himself to the editor of the Noyoe Vremya and since then he has attacked every pro gressive movement in Russia and vilely slandered the Jews at every opportunity. A brother of Premier Stolypin is one of the principal edi tors of Novoe Vremya.
 "The political situation in Russia at the present time. due to tho recent reactionary victory Of the Czar and his prime minister. Stolypin, massa cres of Jews whenever the political situation was one or great tenseness and has repeatedly utilized this meth cd to provide an outlet for the bent up feelings of her excited populace The government by the use of the soldiery. the police and the adminis- trative officials, has always insti- gated and directed the massacrcs at such times.
 There is a similar condition at the present moment and unless the wid- est publicity Is given the yillanies which the Russian government never hesitates to perpetrate in order to serve her own purpose, the world is likely to see repetition at any time of the horrible scenes which are for the present, held in abeyance by the Russian Government.
 The Russian government always has controlled the situation absolute Fly. AS Prince Urussof former'y gov ernor of Bessarabia, and now pris oner or his own estates stated in q speech in the Duma, the Russian gov |ernment can turn on a Pogrom of tens of thousands, when and how t pleases.'
