Or. Hupp, Under Rapid-Fire Question
ing Of Attorney o'Brlen, confesses
That He Was Not Positive sohenk
Poisoned Even After Removal to

Not Nearly SO Sick as Reported.
Medicines Contained Poison.
Wheeling, w. Va, Jan. 12.-The de-
Tense scored heavily in the case of
Laura Farnsworth Schenk. charged
With having attempted to poison her
husband, John o. Schenk, the mil.
lionaire pork packer. DR.. Frank lie
Moyne Hupp, who reported the al
legged poisoning to the authorities
and who was considered the star wit.
ness for the state, was under cross
examination at the hands OF Attorney
John ]. p. O'Brlen.
Up TO less than an hour before ad-
journment of court the session was
uninteresting. Then Attorney O'Brlen
suddenly collected the scattered ends
of the cross-examination, firing one
sharp question after another at the
witness.
Among other things admitted by
DR.. Hupp was that he was not sure
the symptoms exhibited by John o.
Schenk, even after the removal of the
latter to the hospital, were due to
arsenical poisoning until a mineral
water used by Schenk was analyzed
by experts; that the discoloration OF
the patients gums was probably due
to diseased condition of the gums
and the fact that "Schenk did not use
a tooth brush" rather than to lead
poisoning, and that the millionaire
packer was at re time. either before
or after his removal to the hospital,
actually confined to his bed at all
times.
1t has been generally supposed that
Schenk was for weeks at the point OF
death. O'Brien also secured an ad.
mission that it was the wife who
first summoned DR.. Hupp and who
asked II Schenk should not have q
trained nurse.
For the first time during the trial
the name of Albert Schenk, brother
OF John O. Schenk and head of the
wealthy family, was brought into the
case.
did not Mrs. Schenk complain to
you that Albert Schenk had gone to
the hospital and secured Johns sig
nature to certain papers which would
make Albert executor OF Johns es-
tate If the latter should die sudden
ly?" was asked.

versation," was the reply.
II was admitted that hyomel qui.
nine, one of the compounds taken by
Mr.. Schenk. contained arsenic in
small quantities.

'0HIO'S MORAL TONE
is GROWING BETTER
Pen Statistics Show Decline In
Criminal Population

Columbus, o., Jan. IA "we-are-
growing-bettur" argument is implied
by the annual report of the board of
penitentiary managers to Governor
Harmon, showing that the ratio of
prisoners now in the pen" consider
ing the population of the state, is low
err than it has ever been except in
1850. There has been during the year
1910 on prisoner for every 3,046
persons in the state. The average in
the past has been one TO about every
2,5OO. The 1910 statistics show that
half of the conyicts had been thrown
on their own resources in the world
between the ages Of 13 and 16, in
elusive.
Two-thirds of those confined had
been forced TO fight their own way
before the age of II. These statistics
are along the line of the claims made
by those championing anti-child labor
laws.
Since the establishment of the PEN
itentiary here in 1894 there have
been OF the 4O.0S4 prisoners 2J7 who
escaped, and 1875 who were par
doned. Since 1885, when executions
were first transferred from The coun.
ty to the state, GA have paid the death
penalty at the institution.
Cleveland was the largest contrib
utor' TO the Ohio penitcntlaTy in
1910, according to the prison report
with 10S conyicts.
Columbus and Cincinnati each sent
up 49, Toledo ranked fourth, with
81 prisoners, while Akron sent up 20.
Eleven counties in the state sent
none to the pen in 1910. Five coun-
ties have no prisoners in the pen.
These are Carroll, Logan, Monroe,
Vinton and Adams. However, the
officials are hopeful of Adams.

CURIOSITY IS SATISFIED

Declares IT. Il Acts Of Trust When
Taken Together Constituted an At

Reads From American Tobacco
Company's Correspondence to Illus
trate Methods It Employed.
Washington, Jan. -. Attorney
General Wickersham, In the closing
argument of the tobacco trust case,
satisfied the curiosity of the supreme
court as to what is the governments
contention in regard to monopoly
within the meaning of the Sherman
antitrust act.
In reply to a question from Justice
Holmes whether mere power or size
of combination constituted a mo-
nopoly in restraint of trade, the at.
torney general replied that he did
contend that it did. lie declared that
any one of the many instances of the
acquisition of property by the Ameri-
can Tobacco company considered
alone, might pass as an incident OF
business development, but when all
of the separate acts of the American
Tobacco company were taken togeth-
er in connection with the enormous
growth of its business and the con-
trol it exercised, II constituted an at
tempt to monopoli2e trade within the
meaning of the Sherman act.
While reading some of the letters
from the files of the American To
bacco company correspondence, Mr..
Wickersham was asked by Justice
Lurton whether the instances cited
of suppressing competition were
sporadic or general"
Mr.. Wickersham replied that the
trust resortcd to such methods when
ever they appeared necessary to suit
its purpose.
How often were they necessary"
inquired Justice McKenna
In reply the attorney general pro.
ceeded to give many instances, and
he read some highly entertaining cor
respondence from officers of the
American Tobacco company, instruct.
ing their local managers TO sell be-
low cost in certain localities TO wipe
ou local competition, but net to spend
a dollar beyond what would be neces-
sary to extinguish the local compet-
itors.

Albany Police Believe Boy Kidnapped
and Killed.


New York, Jan. 12.-The police OF
Albany, Troy and Schenectady have a
baiiing murder mystery on their
hands. Harry Spankland of Albany
was hunting in lonely field on the
Banker farm when he found the dead
body OF boy, apparently years old.

bottle labelled carbolic acid, and the
appearance of the boys mouth, lips
and throat prompts the police to be-
lieve the deadly fluid was forced into
the boys mouth. Despite the fact that
the body was found in a muddy field
1000 feet from the roadway, there
was no trace of dirt on the lads cloth.
Ing. The police suspect the boy was
