Examined by Questions.

DR. Coriat is head of the neurological
department of the city hospital He did
not make a physical examination of
the condemned man. He simply en-
eouraged Richeson to talk of his early
life, and asked questions. comparing the
answers with the true facts Of the for
mer clergymans history supplied the
alienists by the attorneys for the de-
Tense
Richeson did not always tell the
truth Sometimes he tried to evade
pertinent questions regarding unpleas-
ant incidents of his career
All these things iehesons false
hoods or veracity, his willingness or
refusal to reveal certain phases of his
history. his early environment and ex-
periences-were considered by DR.. Co
riat in arriving at his positive deci-
sion that Richeson is not sane today,
nor was he fully responsible for his act
when he handed to Avis Linnel the
drug that killed her.

.HALPIN SEES VICTORY
Olympic Team Picked Today Looks
Like World Beaten.

New York, June 11.-Confdent that
the showing made both east and west
in the Olympic tryouts coupled with
the Pacific coast records spells the
most sweeping victory Americans have
made in the Olympic games, members
OF the American team selection COM
mittee will meet here today to pick
sixty leaders in the score of athletic
specialties on the Stockholm program.
Mathew Halpin, manager of the team
who has twice been abroad with Amer
lean athletes, said upon his return
from Boston today:
I'VE have the best material ever to
pick from and the team that sails for
Stockholm Thursday will be a world
beaten. Every one of our tryouts have
been world heaters and with the bunch
altogether we shall be invincible."
The preliminaries came to a climax
yesterday with new marks by Lin
berg, of Chicago, for 400 meters; by
Kiviat, of Chicago, and Patterson, of
Chicago, for the 1,50O meters, by Kra-
mer, of the Long Island Athletic club,
fer the 10000 meters and the sensa-
tional pole vault record of 13 feet Ia
inches by Wright, of Dartmouth.
The record of HORNE, the high jump
ing marvel of the Pacific coast, at 6
feet inches, the wonderful discus
throwing by Duncan of New York, and
numerous other performances give the
American team at least six new Olyn-
pic records in the events on the Stock
holm program and near records in
practically all the other athletic events

LAST HOUSE CONE
Brick School Building al
Brakeman Torn Down.
RawlinS County Scene of Bit
ter Town Fight.

Atwood, June 1.-THE school
house on the site of the old town of
Brakeman, in Rawlins county has
been torn down, and will be built on
some other location. This school house
was the last building to be torn away
on the site of this once prosperous
and healthy town. Started by the
Burlington road and the Lincoln, Neb.
land company to pull the county seat
away from Atwood and set it down
in Brakeman it failed in its purpose.
In 1887 and 1888 the fight waXed
hot Several Atwood business men
moved their town, which was only
about half a dozen miles away. At
one time in the fight it looked if blood
would be shed before,ssa but cooler
heads averted trouble. The fight was
taken into the courts, and the SUI
preme court decided favorable to At
wood.
The Lincoln land company built this
school house at a cost of about $1O,-
600. Brick was used in it's construc-
ton. 1t was two story building, and
stood on an elevation which overlook
ed the famous Beaver creek valley
The town site of Brakeman which
had a population of several hundred
in its best days. is now an alfalfa field,
with here and there a hole in the
ground where a building stood. The
stayers in Atwood made a heroic fight,
and many Of them remain here.

RAILROAD NEWS
Shippers Will Ask for Adequate
Rail Facilities.
Plank i'm National Platform
May Be Inserted.
NOT A POLITICAL ISSUE
Ould Prevent Excessive
Changes in U. s.
Would
Other Items of General Inter-
est in Traffic World.

petition of shippers to the political
parties asking for q plank in the ma
tional platforms emphasizing the need
of more railway facilities has been sent
to shippers and receivers of freight
throughout the country by the Railway
Business association, the national or
ganiZatiOn of railway supply manufac-
turers. This is the plank proposed:
"Reaffirming vigorously the necessity
for governmental regulation of rail-
roads to prevent determinations and
excessive charges; to safeguard life,
and to promote the convenience and
comfort of the public, we favor pol
icy toward railroads which WILL:
tGive careful heed to the promotion
of their prosperity and growth.
Ascertain in considering the enact
ments compelling expenditures that
they possess the resources to meet such
OUTLAWS without injury to efficient ser
vice.
Provide that in all adjustments Of
rates ample revenue shall be insured
them to meet existing obligations and
to attract capital for necessary I'M
provementS and extensions"
The signatures solicited are those of
the executive of concerns and are to be
exhibited to the delegates at the con-
vention cities, where the plank will be
urged upon the platform committees.
1.-The association" says President
George A. Post in a bulletin, has no
part in partisan politics; it's member
ship is made up of men of various Pr
litical affiliations. 1t operates with
complete independence of the railways,
with no railway official in its member
ship or in its councils For four years
the people engaged in the group of ir-
dustries making appliances for the rail
way and giving employment to 100000
workingmen have in an organized
way he says, "been studying the con-
nection between railway regulation and
their prosperity. They are thinking
about it and are keeping themselves
informed as to current tendencies af
fecting their interests. They are con-
WINGED that so vast an army of work
ing people may as properly as any
other element call attention to their de-
sires, their necessities and their i'm
portance numerically as factors in ev-
eryday life of our nation
