FOUND GUILTY
Second Degree Murder---E.n
Years In Pen

F~essenden, N. D.. July Slater q
trial lasting nearly a week the jury
in n case against Bruno Zytko.
brought In q verdict finding him
gree and fixing his punishment at
ten years Imprisonment. Zytko was
accused Of the murder OF John Kut-
man, a fellow Polish laborer, near
Sykeston, last fall.
The evidence against Zytko was en-
tirely circumstantial. He, kaufman
n John Kenpt the main witness
for 2 state had been employed dur
ing threshing near EykaSton. After
.threshing the three prepared to re-
turn east going as far AZ Darlington,
Kempt continued on to Chicago but
kaufman and zytko decided to hunt
for another job. The state introduced
evidence that the pair were seen
walking from Sykeston toward the
place where Kutman's body was later
found. The defense claimed that
Zytko never returned to Sykeston but
that after walking into the country
from Darlington, he and kaufman met
two Americans with whom the latter
had worked. That kaufman had gone
with these two men while zytko had
returned to Darlington and taken the
train for his home at Michigan
After the finding Of the body. Rempt
was taken into custody at Chicago
and 1t was through him that zytko
was located. The state sought to
show that Zytko was jealous OF Kut-
man as a motive for the crime but
Mrs. Zytko stood by her husband
during the trial, being one of the
main witnesses for the defense.
Zytko, who is about 81 years OF
age and who came to this country ten
years ago, was without funds to con-
duct his defense. A Polish society in
Chicago raised funds enough to send
his wife to Fessenden but nothing for
a defense. Judge Nuchols of Man
dan presided at the trial In the abb
sence of Judge Coffey. Atty. Edward
Kelly OF Darlington assisted States
Attorney Layne in the prosecution.
while zytko was represented by
Youngblood and Whipple.

CHAFFEE
Will LOST
Estate Said to Be Valued At
81, 100000
in PROBATE COURT
WILL OF LATE II. r. cHAFFEE
BELIEVED TO HAVE GONE
DOWN INTO ATLANTIC ON ILL.,
FATED TITANIC EVIDENCE
HEARD TODAY.

According to the testimony offered
this afternoon in the county court,
the last will and testament OF the late
H. F. Chaffee of Armenia is thought
to have gone down with him into the
Atlantic with the Inflated Titanic.
F. j. Sullivan of Duluth, attorney
for the late Mr.. Chaffee III sug-
gested the proper drawing Of the last
win of the deceased, testified today
that Mr.. Chaffee had sent him a docu-
ment on Oct rs, 1911, for his APP
prevail. Several clauses in that in
strument were thought by MI. Sulli-
a to be invalid and MI. Chaffee
wrote the Duluth attorney last Febru-
airy to draw another and mail 1t to
him in Minneapolis where he could
receive am and transcribe it into his
own handwriting while on his way to
Europe, That instrument is believed
by Mrs. Chaffee to have gone down
with the ship Is she was told by her
husband that he was drawing a will
while crossing the ocean on the return
trip. Mr.. Sullivan was on the stand
when The Forum went to press.
One of the provisions of the earlier
will is said to have been for an APP
priation to the International Sunshine
society. and also for the Plymouth
Congregational church of Minneapolis.
This was not brought out In the testi-
mony this afternoon, however.
Walter r. Reed of Armenia, assoct-
ated in business with the late Mr..
Chaffee, testified that he believed the
Chaffee estate was approximately
worth in the neighborhood Of $780,
600. Two insurance policies have been
paid the estate since the Titanic. one
for $4,000 and another for $1,750.
S. B. Bartlett Of CasseIton appear
ed as counsel for Mrs. Chaffee, d. B.
Holt for the International Sunshine
society and W. B. Clapp as special
guardian for the minor children of
the deceased.
1t is rumored that Mrs. Chaffee wish
ed the expressed desire of her hus-
band about the requests to the Sun
shine society and the Minneapolis
church to be carried out and that this
is opposed by the children.

EXPERT AND ARTIST
SURE DAKOTA DAN is THE HEIR

The lower part Of the nose is iden-
teal and were 1t not for the break In
the bridge in the nose OF the elder
Russell, due to a fall, probably the
whole nose would be identical with
that of Dakota Dan.
The hair at the temple and over
the forehead grows in precisely the
same way in both heads as shown in
the photographs. The neck, back OF
the ear. is the same as shown in the
pictures. The shape of the hand is
the same-another characteristic ear
ly always inherited from one OF the
parents-and though Dakota Dams
hands are roughened by hard work,
the same traits Of short fingers and
wide, strong hand resemble the hands
of the elder Russell, as also shown
In the photographs.
Eyes Like Mrs. Russell
Dakota Dams eyes are deep set, like
the eyes OF his mother. But the lines
with those OF the father in all the
photographs.
It is Uncomfortable that any one
could have seen the remotest resern-
blance In the head Of Dakota Dan in
the previous trial to the photographs
Of any members of the Reseau family.
Dakota Dams head is distinctly a
new England TYP with o q single
characteristic OF any Latin race or
Of a French Canadian. 1t Is the head
Of a man straightforward, frank. hon.
est and generous.
In short, we and in Fresno Dams
head absolutely no resemblance to
the head OF Senator Russell, while in
Dakota Dams head nearly all OF the
marked characteristics OF Senator
Russell are present.
Moreover, Dakota Dams head re-
sembles that Of Senator Russell in the
points noted much more even than
does the head Of the elder son. Will
liam G. Russell.
All things considered, there are
striking and unmistakable family re-
semblances between the photographs
Of the late Senator Russell and those
of Dakota Dan. Some points Of re-
semblance which I noticed In photo
graphs published q few days ago in
terested me to make as careful a study
as possible Of the matter from all the
photographs obtainable.
/ am satisfied that the points Of re-
Eemblance enumerated above are not
casual or incidental, but r inherited
family traits.

Evening Grain Letter.

Chicago, July 3l-Wheat: There
was a fairly good demand for cash
wheat here, principally for fancy or
choice hard winter for shipment east.
The demand for soft winter was fair.
The market after opening slightly
higher In sympathy with the strength
abroad, later reacted on continued
favorable weather IN the northwest
and Canada, where crop prospects are
very favorable and harvest has already
begun in South Dakota, southern
Minnesota and the southern part Of
North Dakota. We see nothing in the
situation to change our opinion and
believe with the movement Of new
spring wheat so near at hand, COM
ing on top of the large movement OF
winter wheat, that It will take an ex-
c~eptionally strong demand for export
to prevent prices from working lower.
Corn: The weather throughout the
corn belt vas generally favorable.
The eastern demand is generally good
and favorable weather we look for a
more liberal movement to market In
side of the next two weeks. While
the immediate purse of prices will
depend chiefly on the weather, still
1t must be remembered that all feed
ing stuffs are so much more plenti-
full than during the past two years
the present crop prospects will have
declined materially to maintain pres
ent level of values. At the moment
the prospects are for a very much
larger crop than that of a year ago.
Oats: The principal feature to the
oats market today was the covering
in the July option which caused the
market to be a little erratic. The de-
ferred futures were decidedly easier
on the glowing reports regarding
threshing returns. The new crop is
beginning to move. The weather IL
favorable for movement to market and
we look for very large receipts In
the near future. 1t will take a con-
slant good demand to prevent prices
from working lower.
