Gov. Blease is pretty near correct
in his remarks at the conference OF
governors at Richmond. There is no
doubt of the fact that our treatment
of convicts is far from humane. In
fact we sometimes treat those who are
charged with crime and who are un-
der the law presumed to be innocent
as if they were hardened criminals.

TO HANG 5 IN ONE DAY
Chicago VIII Establish New Record
Tomorrow.

Springfield, ILL.,, Feb. 15.-The state
board of pardons decided today that
the four murderers Of Fred w.
GueIzow must hang tomorrow in the
Cook county jail. The slayers are
Ewald and Frank Shibilawski, Thomas
Schultz and Philip Sommerling. With
them will hang Thomas Jennings, the
negro burglar who shot and killed
Clarence Hitler. a railroad official, IN
Killers Chicago home and whose petit
ton for Communication was denied yes
terday Ewald Shibilawski and SOM
merling already had given up hope OF
commutation, but strong efforts were
made to save the lives of the younger
Shibilawski and Schultz.
The murder of Guelzow, truck
farmer, was brutal. The farmer was
on his way into Chicago when the four
youths attacked him and. despite his
pleas for his life, beat him to death
after robbing him. The hanging of
five men in one day. will be record
for Cook county.
On the occasion of the anarchists ex-
ecutions four were put to death. Five
were originally sentenced but one COM
mitted suicide in jail. The next largest
number hanged on q single day was the
three car barn bandits.

Kelley & Kelley Did Not Tell Of
Condition of Market.
STOCK BELIEVED WORTHLESS
Martin Says Firm Knew 1t Was
Worth Large Sum.
Waters Says Officials We're
Glad to Get Money.

Sparks are flying today in Judge
Whitcomb's division Of the district
court. where the transactions in the
Kelley & Kelley bond cases are being
aired before a jury of twelve men who
must guess Oh the evidence of the
witnesses, the arguments OF the law
yers and the law as the court sees IL.
The action is of vital importance TO
Shawnee county and involves the same
issues to be presented by this county
in future trial.
In the action brought by Grant
township, Reno county, an effort is
made to secure judgment against Kel-
ley & Kelley for the value Of the
bonds at the time of their sale in
August, 1903. The bonds were sold
for 40 cents, when tho market quota
tions the day OF the transfer we're
slightly better than 73. 1t is charged
that the agents failed to communicate
to the township the exact conditions
of the market at the time OF -ho
transfer and that Grant township was
double crossed in the transaction.
From the time that the jury was
impanelled, there was joy for the
crowd in the court room- Judge
Frank L. Martin of Hutchinson out
lined the case for the plaintiffs. He
told of the ownership by the township
Of $40 shares Of Kansas: Colorado &
Pacific stock, which L. +. Jordan
Omaha offered to buy at 20 cents on
the dollar. Then the Kelleys appear
ed. They told of a mysterious Gus
toner in St Louis who would pay
more. So Kelley landed the contract
to sell the stock that had become
faded and musty in the pigeon holes
where the townships records we're
kept.
Knew Stock was valuable.
It was charged by Judge Martin that
Kelley & Kelley, as bond agents. at all
times knew the conditions of the mar
ket, but failed to advise the township
officers of the real conditions. He
said the firm knew that the stock was
to be transferred for Missouri Pacific
stock on a dollar for dollar basis. But
the township officers We're not advised
Of these facts A contract was made
whereby the stock was not to be sold
at less than 20 and such as was re-
ceived above this price would benefit
equally among the parties to the con-
tract. That was in May, 1903. In
July a contract was made to sell. The
township believed Kelley & Kelley
were acting independent of the
Omaha man. On August 6 the trans
fer was made. For the S34.0 900 worth
of stock, the township received $10.-
200, Kelley & Kelley SO, 400. The sale
price was 40 cents. The market price
that day was better than 70. It was
learned that the agents n sold the
stock to Jordan and that he proflted
by the sale. Because of the transac-
ton, the township demands judgment
against Kelley & Kelley for difference
between the 80 cents received and 73
cents the market value of the stock.
This would amount to S14.62O.
Judge Martin in his remarks
charged the defendants with duplicity
to their clients and with wantonly

ON WRONG SIDE
American Soldiers Cross Rio
Grande and Are Arrested.
Mexicans Find It Was a Mis-
take and Release Them.

Ell Paso, Feb 15.-Anerican soldiers
went into Juarez this morning by mis-
take and trouble is threatened as a
result. The soldiers were new men
here and a company of them attempt
ed to go around from one international
bridge to another on the Mexican side
They were stopped by Mexican guards
and the whole town quickly was in
arms. Cars have stopped running. No
Americans can get across and the river
is lined with armed men doing guard
duty. The Americans are members
of a battalion of the Eighteenth in
fantry who came from Arizona The
soldiers were placed under arrest by

he made a. mistake. The town has
quieted down now and the men have

headquarters We want their co-opera-
ton President Taft has proven himself
the real progressive leader of the party

business men, anxious for the continuance
of prosperity. placing their confidence
and reliance in President Taft. are up
holding his hand.
Upon the record established during the
last rec years the Republican party will
go before the American electorate. That
record IS the record of William Howard
Taft and it demands the denomination OF
the president The Republican party will
not repudiate him. He is the only man
who can carry New York and the doubt

ago but was not then accepted.

HE CHARGES THEFT.
District Attorney Takes Over All City
Records.

Kingston. n. Y. Feb. 15.-In an Of
fetal notice served on the mayor and
on practically every other city official.
District Attorney Cunningham says:
For several weeks rumors have
been rife in this country to the ef-
feet that some one occupying a posi-
ton of public trust and authority in
the government of the city of Kings
ton, in recent months. has embezzled
funds of the city of Kingston in large
amounts. During the past week these
rumors have multiplied in number and
have taken the form Of concrete pop
ular accusations. These rumors and
accusations are of such a nature that,
as district attorney of this county they
cannot be ignored by me, and 1 would
indeed be remiss in my duty as the
prosecuting officer of this county If /
permitted them to go any longer un-
Needed
District Attorney Cunningham will
take charge of all records, reports and
other data bearing on the public funds
and will submit them to the grand
jury. An audit of all the city accounts
will be made at once by certified pub
lie accountants.
