cause of her death, seems TO be the
general opinion of neighbors from q
death bed statement made by the wo-

the assault made upon her by her
husband, fearing that he might again

she added, she did not care whether
or not they told the inhuman cir
cumsoances. which brought about
her then desperate condition.
True to their promise the neighbors
kept the secret well. but it was not
until they were preparing the body
for bur al that the full extent Of the
injuries inflicted upon her were
brought out.
The woman was buried before any
opportunity was given for an investi-

ing her death by the coroner or other
authorit es. Cohsequt ntly no auto

her death has not yet been officially

Beverage Writes
Affecting Letter
to Friend George

WASHINGTON, Oct. .3.-George
w. Perkins testimony that he trans
mttted contribution Of $4,000, and
no other amount, to Albert j. Bever-
idge, senatorial candidate in Indiana,
in 1904. was fatty contradicted by
three reputable witnesses before the
Clapp committee today.
The men testified that Beveridge
received fund of $4,000 from
George w. Perkins. who sent $780,
600: Edward Mclean of Greenvillc,
O., who put In $4,000, and Clifford
Pinchot, who furnished the remain
der. Beveridge, they declared, re-
turned the entire contribution in the
original drafts and checks immedi-
ately after election.
The witnesses were Larz A. Whit
comb, attorney and office-mate of
Beveridge; Leopold p. Rithschild,
now collector of customs at indian
apolis, and John +. Hayes, former
private secretary to the Indiana sena-
tor. The stories told by each witness
conceded in every detail.
In support Of his claim that Bever-
idge returned $4,000 to him, George
w. Perkins telephoned Senator Clapp
today that he HAD round the letter
Beveridge used in returning the
money. The text Of the letter was
made public by Frank J. Hogan, Bull
Moose leader in this city, to whom 1t
was telephoned by Mr.. Perkins today.
The latter, dated Indianapolis, No
vember 3, 1904, reads: /.
Dear Old Man Herewith I re-
turn to you untouched the splendid
sum you so generously sent me to

and | returned the draft to him, just
as | am sending the enclosed back
to you.

The suit was instituted in the
federal district court of Minnesota

government when the monopoly was
formed, has provoked enc OF the
sharpest issues between the Taft ana
Roosevelt followers in the presidential
campaign.

into his trouser pockets, and unhiHeh-
ingly looked the members of the jury
squareiy in the eve as they filed out.
Whether the jury finds him inno-
cent or guilty. this display of mistaken
nerve will remain the most remark
able incident of the murder trial, which
has been replete with sensational
thrills.
The attorneys on both sides occu-
pied all of the time allotted for their
summing up. Attorney John r. Nc
Intyre, for Becker. addressed the court
and jury from 10 A. NJ. until 2 p. NJ.
Assistant District Attorney Frank
Moss closed for the State, and spoke
from $40 unfit 7:ao p. NJ.

and rhetoric. the victor OF which will

verdict.

Many who have followed the evil

a few hours after the case is given
into the hands OF the jury.
On the last opportunity to plead for
his client. Mr.. Mcintyre charged that
the district attorney had not proved
the charge of murder against Becker,
and made an eloquent appeal 10 the
Jury not TO believe the testimony OF
Rose. Weber WALTON and Schepps,
when he described as 'graveisng, an
belieyable creatures" He started out
by saving that he was defending an
American, not n murderer.
Then the district attorney was ac-
cused OF legal jugglery for not placing

and Mr.. Mcintyre shouted with dra-

that if the truth were known ne was

Camp of Insurrectos, Suaz, Chihua. hua, Mexico, March 5.-(5:10 p.m.) The rebel general. Salazar, who ar rived here this morning, and General Campa, have not committed them selves fully as to Pascual Orozco. the insurrecto commandant in Chi- huahua, 13 miles miles south of here.
 The reason for their distrust Is not fully apparent, but on the surface 1t appears that they are not convinced that Orozco's announced assertion 10 the rebels is not merely the mask of a leader still devoted to President Madero.
 This morning Orozco sent an invi- tation to General Salazar and his troops to enter Chihuahua to take the oath of fealty to the rebellion. Sala- gar countered with proposition that Orozco visit Eauz and himself take the oath. Orozco replied that he dar. ed not leave Chihuahua and repeated his original invitation.
 A council of war was held, at which it was decided to approach lat CT in the day to the outskirts of Chi huahua and to halt there until the ex- act status of Orozco and his men could be definitely determined, De tachments of the Salazar contingent have been close to the city, but have not remained, leading to premature announcement that the vanguard of the Juarez column had entered the city As & matter of fact, it was merely reconnaissance in force.
 It is reported in camp, but the re- port cannot be confirmed, that the difference between Orozco and Sala- gar is over the matter of supreme command of the northern forces. Both leaders are said to covet the distinc- ton and it Is asserted that it is Oroz- co.'s, ambition rather than to his loy- alty to the rebel cause which is dis trusted.

 Second Assistant Postmaster C. eral Joseph Stewart, who had pre- ceded those speakers, returned t0 the platform and vigorously defended the department and the postmaster gen eral.

Fiaueros Joins Rebels.

Ambrosia Figueroa, Madero's trust ed chief of rurales in Guerrero and Morelos, and during the previous rev. olution his greatest ally in the south, is reported tonight to be in revolt The news of Orozco's change of front caused sensation among the south. ern Medaristas, 1,500 or whom have re-enlisted under the banner of the new revolution. Orozco and Figue- roa, according to dispatches from Cuernavaca, have long been in com mrnication and the Guerrero leader is said to have known for some days of the formers intention to desert Ma dero.
 Figueroa's personal grievance is al leged to be the presidents action in listening to proposal from Jesus Salgado, the Guerrero rebel. whom Figueroa had been fighting for many weeks, that Figueroa be retired from Guerrero o1 promise of the other to surren2er.
