Two Get New HEARING.

New York, Feb. 16.-Hugh Gordon
Miller, as counsel for Frank C. Webb
and Patrick F. Farrell, today asked
United States Commissioner Alexan-
der to reopen the case and grant his
clients a hearing. Webb and Farrell,
arrested here in the alleged dynamite
conspiracy, had waived examination
and were put under $4,000 bail each
to appear for pleading in Indianapolis
After listening to objections by the
assistant district attorney, the COM
missioner said that in all fairness he
believed Farrell and Webb were en-
Titled to hear and would reopen the
case, and he set the hearing for to-
morrow. The men hope to procure
bail soon.

On July Jack Johnson and Jim

ing telegraphed to Jack Curley oi
Chicago, manager for Flynn and pro
moter of the big bout, that the re

cordance with a message from CurleS
to the effect that Johnson and Flynr
had both posted their forfeit money

tee of good faith.

FIFTH MAN WAS A NEGRO
THOMAS JENNINGS LIFE TAKEN
IN PREPARATION FOR KILLING
CLARENCE KILLER.
LAWYERS MAKE STRONG FIGHT
COUNSEL FOR CONDEMNED MEN
LEFT NO LEGAL STONE UN.
TURNED TO SAVE THEM.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-The four MUIR
dereds of Fred Guelzow were hanged
in the Jail today. They were Ewald
and Frank Shiblawski, who died to-
gether first and Phillip Sommerling
and Thomas Schultz, who met death
a few minutes later. Thomas Jen-
nings, the negro slayer of Clarence
Hitler, the gallows' fifth victim, was
saved, for a short time by the plea
of his lawyers before federal court
that in being forced to make thumb
prints his constitutional immunity
from having to testify against himself
had been violated. He, too, was
hanged when Judge lands declined
to interfere.
Desperate eleventh hour efforts
were made by sympathizers to save
the lives of the Guelzow slayers. A
Polish Catholic priest declared be-
fore Judge Mckinley in the superior
court that he believed the youths were
insane.
While the death march Of the Shib-
lawski brothers was in progress a
bailiff from Judge McKinIey's court
summoned Jailer Davies to court. But
three minutes before the bailiff's ar
rival the Shiblawskis had been
hanged. Davies refused to obey the
summons to the superior court. In
stead Chief Deputy Peters telephoned
to the judge that two of the men had
been hanged and the execution of the
other two would proceed unless for
NAL writ prevented. No writ was
issued and Sommerling ana Schultz
followed their companions on the gal
lows.
Representatives of the states attor-
ney's office resisted the attempt to
stop the executions and told Judge
Mckinley that the petition alleging
insanity, which under the law is a
bar to execution, was presented only
for delay
This was denied by counsel for the
condemned men and wordy alterca-
ton occupied the minutes in which
the four were being prepared for the
gallows. Judge Mckinley declined
to permit the petition to be filed until
it had been read. The prosecutors in
sisted that the petition, which was
signed by Reverend Repinski was not
in accord with the facts. While the
executions of the Guelzow murderers
were taking place jennings counsel
were arguing before United States
District Court Judge lands on the
habeas corpus writ they asked yes
terday.

NEARLY CAUSED TROUBLE
NATIVES OF SISTER REPUBLIC
THOUGHT INTERVENTION
HAD BEEN ORDERED
1T WAS MERELY A MISTAKE
OFFICER WAS NOT AWARE THAT
CAR HE BOARDED CROSSED
THE BOUNDARY LINE

: Washington, Feb. 16.-The war de
partment decided to deal drastically
with Lieutenant Ben w. Fields of the
Eighteenth infantry who, in command
of a squad of American soldiers,
made the mistake of crossing into
Juarez, Mexico, from Ell Paso, Texas,
yesterday afternoon, and nearly pre-
cipitated an international clash.
Fields has been arrested pending an
Investigation.
While the war department is con-
vinced that the mistake was due to
the unfamiliarity of Fields and his
men with the route of the trolley
car they boarded, it is desired that
this fact be thoroughly impressed on
the Mexican officials. The Mexican
government has promised the United
States to protect the ten Americans
now at Tlahualillo, state of Durango.
At Palomas, on the border line just
south of Columbus, N. NJ, the rebels
are reported to be permitting goods
of all kinds to come into Mexico at
one-haIf the regular tariff duties.
While conditions in Juarez are said
to be favorable to the government,
conditions farther west in Chihuahua,
particularly the Casas Grandes re
gion, are still unsettled. There is
much opposition to the government
and the rebels there continue to in
terfere with the running of trains.
Railway communication between Mex
leo City and Oaxaca in the south has
heen interrupted

A NEGRO CONVICT
KILLS PRISONMATE
ED. DELHANTIE RUNS AMUCK IN
SAN QUENTIN PENITENTlARY;
BELIEVED INSANE.

San Quentin, Cal, Feb. 16.-Armed
with sharp pointed file, Edward Del
hantie, a negro convict believed to be
insane, ran amuck in the prison yard
today and killed William Kaufman, a
fellow prisoner, while William Peter
son, also a convict, received fatal
wounds. The negro sprang at Peter
son as the convicts lined up for
breakfast. When Peterson fell he fled
across the yard encountering and
stabbing Kaufman as he ran. AS
Delhantie stood at pay against the wall
Guard Duffy walked up to him and
quietly asked for the file. The negro
gave it up and went to his cell with
out resistance. Delhantie was sen
fenced for an unnatural crime.

PACKERS TRIAL
DELAYED TODAY
CONFERENCE OF COUNSEL WITH
JUDGE REGARDING LEE TRIAL,
CAUSE OF HALT.

Chicago, Feb. 16.-The packers
trial was delayed today pending a con-
ference Of counsel for both sides and
Judge Carpenter in regard to the trial
of T. G. Lee, one of the managers OF
the beef department of Armour &
Company, indicted on a charge OF
perjury in August, 1910, growing out
of a grand jury investigation of the
packers.
The Lee case was on Judge Lands
calendar and was continued until next
Monday morning by agreement. Later
the question of posyponing the trial
until after the conclusion of the pres
ent packers trial was discussed. AL
though no decision was reached il
is probable that the Lee case will
not be tried until after the packers
trial is finished.
When the packers trial was re
sumed H. A. Russell, beef sales man
ager for Armour & Company, identi
fed weekly margin summaries for AT
mour & Company, and said copies oi
the sheets were sent to the managers
of the beef department and cattle
buyers. a

ABOUT ANNUAL MEET.

st. Louis, Feb. 16-Attorneys and
representatives of the Standard Oil
Rockefeller interests who attended
the annual meeting of the Waters
Pierce Oil company, have been served,
it was announced today, with subpoe-
mas to appear Monday and give depo-
sition regarding the methods en-

the reorganization of the Standard
OIL company.
The subpoenas were served on M.
NJ. Van Buren and Walter Taylor of
New York, R. w. Stewart of Chicago
and George N. Mayer of Kansas City
1t is believed that the taking of the

mandamus proceedings before the cir.
cult court tomorrow.
The mandamus proceedings are to
force H. Clay Pierce and associates
owners of the minority stock in the
Waters-Pierce Oil company, to certify
the votes of the Rockefeller stock
holders in the Missouri corporation
Pierce contends that the votes should
not be counted, and in statement, his
lawyers charged that the Standard Oi
company was attempting to perpetu
ate trust.

A RUN ON A BANK

New York, Feb. 16.-Hundreds Of
excited depositors, mostly foreigners,
stormed the private bank of Adolph
Mendet in Rivengton street today, de-
manding their money.
Nearly $5O,000 had been withdrawn
and the run was still in progress
Mendet said he had ample funds
to meet all demands and is at a loss
to explain the run. One theory Is
that yesterdays taxicab robbery, in
which $4,000 of banks funds was
stolen, made East side depositors rest
less. The police believed that crooks
circulated false rumors in order to
pick pockets while the depositors
were in line

soldiers of the United States, got into
the difficulty yesterday by uninten-
tionally taking his men across the in

they had been arraigned as border
guards. Street cars to Juarez from
Ell Paso cross into Mexico from Stan

west. Fields was ordered to take
his command to the Santa Fe street
bridge for guard duty and, instead
Of leaving the car at the information
al line and marching west on Ameri'
can soil, to the Santa Fe street
bridge, he remained aboard, with his
command under arms, intending to
ride around the loop through Mexico.
The soldiers were taken off by Mex
ican guards as soon as they reached
Mexican soil but were soon released
and allowed to return to the Ameri.
can side of the river The incident
frightened the people of Jnarez who
thought Intervention had come.
Street cars resumed running to

BRYAN IS COMING

1t was announced today in Las We
gas that William J. Bryan, three times
democratic candidate for president

ocratic party, will be in Las Vegas
on February 81. Mr.. Bryan is in
Phoenix, Ariz., where he went to at
tend the Inauguration OF Governor
W. P. Hunt as chief executive of the
new state, and will stop off at several
points in New Mexico OF which Las
Vegas is one. The democrats will
undoubtedly turn out to meet Mr..
Bryan. Las Vegas will be given an
opportunity to listen to the Silver
tongued orator as he is often called.
Plans for his entertainment will be
made and also for a public address
at the Duncan opera house.
Mr. Bryan will make his first stop
he will deliver an address at the Elks'
in New Mexico in Albuquerque, where
theater on Tuesday night. He ex-
poets to go to Santa F'e on Wednes-
day morning and come to Las Vegas
in the evening. In the Duke City
plans for a banquet and reception
have been made and no doubt the
same order will prevail in Las Vegas,

Washington, Feb. 16.-A congress
ional investigation Of the war depart
ment, probably by house committee,
appeared today to be certain out
come Of the Ainsworth-Woo line and
staff controversy which resulted yes
terday in the relief of Adjutant Gen
eral Fred c. Ainsworth from office.
Friends of General Ainsworth in the
house were said to be preparing the
resolution of investigation and that an
effort would be made to have the
scope of the inquiry so widened as to
include the administration of affairs
in Cuba at the time General Leonard
Wood, now chief of staff of the army,
was military governor. Judge Advo-
cate General Crowder was busy today
preparing the charges on which Gen
eral Ainsworth will be tried by court
martial.
Meantime the house of representa-
tives took a hand in war department
affairs by adopting an amendment to
the army appropriation bill consolidat-
ing the offices of chief of staff, ad1u-
tant general and inspector general in
to a single bureau of the general staff.
The chief of staff would be the su-
preme and directing head, with the
adjutant general and inspector gen.
eral members of the staff. Represen-
tative Berger of Wisconsin, socialist,
attacked the policy of an extensive
standing army, declaring it to be a
standing preparation for war" He
insisted the United States needed no
standing army for purposes of de-
fense.
"Texas alone" he said, could whip
Mexico in case of an attack. If the
Canadians should try to attack us |
believe New York could do the job"
Mr.. Berger declared the government
was spending $4OO.OOO.00O for mill
tarism and less than half that sum
for the entire public scnool system. :
While no order OF military arrest
has been issued the status of Major
General Ainsworth Is mat of an Off
Ger under suspension and under orders
to remain in Washington pending the
adoption of disciplinary measures by
the department.
The war department officials are
selecting the court and formulating
the charges. Necessarily several re-
tired officers of high rank must be
used and the department is communi-
eating with some of these who are
not now in Washington TO ascertain if
they would find it feasible to serve.
The court probably will be one of the
most notable in army history. 1t may
be several days before the issue Of the
formal order creating the court and
citing General Ainsworth before it.
Although the issues are exceedingly
important, involving the old rancorous
