year ago from Auburn. and when he
was departing, in custody of officers,
promised his relatives and others who
had been instrumental in having a
court of inquiry investigate his men,
tai condition, that he would kill them
within a year.
Sheriff Gives Warning.
Sheriff Ralph Thomas of Auburn re-
ceived word of Earnhart's escape soon
after his flight was discovered and was
urged to do all in his power to appre-
hend the man, as it was found that he
had headed for his old home. The
sheriff at once notified his relatives
posses to search for him.
Earnhart appeared at the home of
Mrs. Minnie Creager. near Kimmel, on
Sunday morning, and before she could
give any warning. attacked and beat
her into insensibility. He then ran

ney he could find and. thinking his

heading a posse of ten men, started af-
ter the fugitive. The posse came up
on him at the outskirts of the town
and he put up fight. Snyder, carry

STATE WOULD DROP
ACTOR LEWIS CASE
But Parents of Alleged AS
sault Victim Insist that
1t Be Prosecuted.

Despite the efforts of Prosecutor
Joshua Allen to have dismissed the
charge of attempted criminal assault
against Jack Lewis, the we'll known
stock company actor, John Moon and
his divorced wife, Elizabeth Moon, par
ents of the alleged victim of the as
sault, Edith, aged eleven years, insist
on Lewis being prosecuted.
1t is positively known that no in
dictment was returned against Lewis
by the grand jury, although Prose
cutor Allen and special circuit court
prosecutor, Perry J. Freeman, have Of
ficially admitted this fact, but the
parents of the little girl want Lewis
prosecuted on the affidavit filed
against him.
John Moon stated today that last
Saturday Prosecutor Allen met him
and urged that the case be dropped
Moon states Allen told him that Lew.
is appeared to be man of good char.
acter; that during the drive he took
with Edith, they were never $50 feet
from an electric street light, and that
little girl after the alleged attack up.
on her would not give satisfactory
testimony.
Mrs. Elizabeth Moon states that
Prosecutor Allen came to her home
and urged her to drop the case against
Lewis, arguing that it would be best
for all concerned, but, she stated, she
refused to consider such action.
The Lewis case has attracted gen
eral attention. The attack was al
legged to have been committed last
summer and when the popular matt
nee idol, who had been playing here
with his company for several weeks
was arrested it caused a genuine sen
sation. The case was investigated last
month by the grand jury and Lewis
was given the most uncommon privi
lege of testifying before the jury il
his own behalf.

WASHINGTON, Oct 21.--Thomas
Fortune Ryan, the New York financier,
testified to the senate campaign ex-
pense investigating committee that he
contributed about half million dol
lars near the end of 1904 Democratic
campaign to keep it from collapsing.
Mr.. Ryan said that he preferred Cor

candidate After Parker was nomi-
mated Mr.. Ryan contributed stingily,
giving only two small dabs of $4,000

responded to urgent appeals by adding
about $35O,OO0 more, so that the cam
paign could wind up it's affairs without
my outstanding obligations.
Mr. Ryan declared that it was all
Iris own personal money and that he
never received any reward of any
kind. In 1912 Mr.. Ryan gave approx
mately $4,000 to Judge Harmon's S
campaign and 10000 to the Under
wood campaign. He gave to Har-

the Underwood campaign because he
thought that a Southerner would make
a good candidate.
He believed, however, that any can

exception of William Jennings Bryan
George Perkins who remarked that
he felt like an insignificant ''piker"
after hearing Mr.. Ryan testify. said
he gave personally $4,000 and $4,000

he understood that J. P. Morgan gave
$15O,0OO.
Beveridse Refuses Check.
Mr.. Perkins presented several let
ters bearing on the 1904 campaign.
One of these letters was dated Oct. 10,
1904, inclosing check for $4,000 for
the benefit of Senator Beveridge, to be
sent to that candidate in Indiana, inde-
pendent of the western committee. A
second letter dated Nov II, from Cor
nelius N. Bliss to Mr.. Perkins ac-
knowledged the receipt of a check for
$4,000, which Perkins had returned
to Bliss. In explaining the return of
the check Perkins said: "The $4,000
I returned was the money given to
