NINE TESTIFY
HANFORD WAS
DRUNK
(By United Press Leased Wire. }

kby Cniteu IFess Lebscu WTe.D
SEATTLE, July 4. That
Judge Cornelius H. Hanford of
the district court of the Western
Washington district, frequently
nodded, closed his eyes and acted
drowsily both on and off the
bench, is an admitted fact today.
Witnesses called in behalf of the
judge yesterday afternoon, how
ever, strongly denied that these
were evidences of intoxication,
but attributed them to a peculiar
habit of the Judge which they
thought was brought about by
worry over woisk and age.
Bartender Testfies
Again witnesses yesterday aft
ernoon followed in the morning.
These, A. G. Burns, a detective,
and Charles Zimmerman, a bar
tender, furnished the strongest
evidence against the Judge, while
former Judge Thomas Burke of
the territorial supreme court of
Washington, and DR.. Park Weed
Willis, personal friends of Judge
Hanford, gave the accused judge
most favorable bill of health as
to sobriety. ability, integrity and
industry.
Dr.. M. A. Mathews, moderator
of the Presbytery, testified that
he never saw Judge Hanford take
a drink except occasionally at
banquets.
Zimmerman testified that he
would serve Hanford with drinks
two or three times week be-
tween IL and l o'clock at night,
and Burns corroborated certain
parts of testimony given previ-
ously by detectives who followed
Hanford for several weeks last
fall.
Saw Him Drunk on Oar
DIR. Titus the socialist leader,
called as a witness against his
will, testified to seeing Hanford
apparently drunk on a street car
some weeks ago, and several 9TH
er witnesses told of having seen
the judge apparently under the
influence of liquor.
The testimony on the charge of
drunkenness made against Han
ford has nov occupied three en-
tire days and yet is not completed.

A local spearl speculator, DIR,
Pepper, paid him $500 for his

But Frank Pate, the "pal' who

One night at dance the ILL
feeling reached its height. Pate
went home for his shotgun.
When he appeared with the
weapon Jumbo shot him dead.
Dr.. Pepper had sold the pearl
to a New York jewelry house for

for 1t.

This is an interview of tre-
mendous and nationwide import
ance. 1t has to do with whether
or not the Fourth of July should
be safe and sane" The small
boy has been interviewed many
times, but never before on this
question. Many persons have
been interviewed on this ques-
ton, but the small boy is not
among them. Yet who can speak
with more authority on this sub
Jest of safe and sane Fourth
than the small boy? Who is more
vitally interested?
''Jonsey' Interviewed
'Jonsey." I said, "are You in
favor of safe and sane Fourth?'
I called him "Jonsey" because
that's the name he's known by. All
the kids out our way on the West
Side call him that. He delivers
my paper. Once l hired him to
NOW my lawn. He quit when 1t
was half done, and / found him
at the drug store eating an ice
cream cone.
He said he'd take 20 cents for
the work already done and call 1t
square, and in moment of
weakness accepted the propo-
sition, thought the agreed price
for the whole job was quarter.
Another time / was loosening
up the earth around my rose
bushes when "Jonsey', came
round and suggested that he finn
ish the job for dime.

worked feverishly for almost 10
minutes. Then he Jagged, and
intimated that he Job was hard

cents.

TRAINS COLLIDE

o'clock this morning. Most of
the killed were passengers i'm the
day coaches who were going home
to spend the Fourth.
The injured were brought to
the hospitals here. A number of
the injured were pinned under
wreckage for hours and their
groans and shrieks could be
clearly heard.
Every undertaken in Corning
was called to help care for the
dead, burt their wagons were
pressed into service to carry the
injured to the hospital.
The place where the wreck oc-
Cured was straight stretch of

tanned, the engineer of the ex-
press train had no warning that
the passenger train was in his
way.

Nearly thirty-five passengers were
killed and fifty injured today
when an express train crashed in
to the fast west-bound Lackawan-
ma passenger No. 0, two miles
east of this city.
The passenger train which runs
from New York to Buffalo, had
been standing ON the track for 20
minutes when the express train,
WHICH carries no passengers,

The two day coaches attached
to the rear of No. 8 were hurled
down an embankment and the ex-
press plunged half way through
the rear Pullman of the standing
train before it came to a stop.
