~ HICAGO, July 1s.-It was expect

Of Mrs. Rene B. Morrow, whose
prominence in women g clubs here has
attracted attention tc her trial on 2
charge of having sh6t her husband Il
death on the porch Of the MOTION
home last December. %-.-
While the closing arguments were in

Law in the disclosure to Morrow s rela-
tives after his death that the property
Of the couple was held in the name Of
Mrs. Morrow.
Most of the spectators ut the trial
were women.
Assistant United States Attorney
Northrup devoted much of his argu'
meut to the force Of circumstantial
evidence aud argued that the case was
clear against Mrs Morrow in spite OF
the double defense of suicide and pos
sible murder by strange man who
was Morrow S enemy.
The prosecutor insisted that the story
of man who ran away from the Nor
row flat the night of the shooting and
stumbled against one of the witnesses
for the defense, was unworthy of con
sideration.
Judge Kersteiu announced his inSen-

STOPPED THE TRAIN;
DISASTER FOLLOWED
Mrs. Julia A. Wilcox, on Duty
in Signal Tower, Probably
Caused Wreck.

CHICAGO, July 1s.-Mrs. Julia A. WILL
cox, who was on duty In the signal tower
at Western Springs last Sunday when a
fast mail train crashed into the rear
of the Overland express OF the Chicago
Burlington &c Quincy railroad killing
thirteen persons and ln5uring more than
score of passengers, today admitted
while testifylng at the coroner's Inquest
over the victims, that a misunderstand-
ing over a telephone message might IN
part have been responsible for the
wreck.
She said she received n telephone mes
sage from Congress Park just prior 10
the accident She understood the mes
sage to mean for her TO hold passenger
train No until a freight train had fin
ishcd switching ahead. She tried to stop
No. 4 but said It ran past the signal.
IL developed, she said, that the person
who telephoned merely wanted her to
inform Congress Park when train No.
passed the tower.
Mrs Wilcox said she then decided she
should stop No. =, a passenger train
which she said ran by the signal, but
stopped $50 feet beyond the tower. Ten
minutes later the mail train, No. =, shot
past the block set against II and crashed
into train No. g The witness admitted
that If she had not misunderstood the
telephone message she would not have
stopped train No. and the accident
probably would not have happened.
Mrs Wilcox appeared calm while CIV
Ing her version OF the wreck and re-
peatcd several times the statement that
she did not think she had done anything
wrong.

Trouble Last Week.

Trouble and friction developed between
the Johnsons and the management OF the
track last Thursday when Ben johnson
was fined SO for rough riding, and
early this week the TWO men declared TO
Norman Hopper. assistant manager OF
the track. that they would not enter this
weeks races.
Nat Warden declared after the discov-
cry of the cut axle last night that oden
Johnson came 10 him early Thursday af-
ternoon and told him. that II he was a
friend Of theirs (the Johnsons) he would
not ride Oden Johnsons machine last
night.
Oden johnson and Ben were called
from the grandstand at the track during
the last race Thursday night by Referee
William D. Rishel and shown the axle
Oden Johnson at first ascribed the In
cision on the bar TO a defect or the rear
wheel and when IL was pointed out that
three competent mechanics among the
riders and attaches OF the track had de-
clared there was little question in their
minds that the cut had been made Win
saw he declared that the only otner
solution was that someone in Denver
had inserted the defective axle previous
20 the time the Wandamere management
purchasd the machine. Oden Johnson de-
clared he had experienced trouble with
the rear wheel OF the machine every time
he iGd ridden 1t.
lie added that the shed where the
machine had been kept had been broken
into some time yesterday. The managers,
however say that as they did not nave.

HATCHEF IS HURLED
At BRITISH PREMIER
Liberal Leader Visits Dublin
and Is Attacked by Unknown
Militant Suffragette.
By International News Service.

BY International News Service.
DUBLIN, July 1S-Premier Asquith,
who is to speak here tomorrow night
on home rule, was welcomed upon his
arrival at the Kingstown quay tonight
by John Redmond in the presence Of a
great crowd. A parade of several ma
tionalist bodies. 1000 torcb-bearers and
several bands was formed and the pre-
mier was escorted to his hotel without
incident The police arrangements to"
night were the same as upon the occa-
sion of the king S visit, but Lord lday-
or Sherlock, who refused to welcome
King George, was there to receive the
kings prime minister officially.
Attempt to Burn Theatre.
Great excitement was occasioned to-
night by the attempt of su1tragette
to burn the Theater Royal, where Pre-
mier Asauith Will address the Nation
alists tomorrow night. While the au-
dience, which had seen the vaudeville
show, was leaving the tbeater, blaz-
ing chair was hurled into the orchestra
by woman In box. The curtain OF
the box WAS also seen TO be in flames
when the chair was thrown. The fire
caused a semi panic among the audi
ence. and at its height the woman es-
caped. The theater attendants soon
extinguished the flames.
Hurls Hatchet at Premier.
Another sensational incident was en-
acted before the party reached MI.
Asauith IS hotel, Some person, presum'
ably suffragette, from a concealed
position on roof Of an upper story,
threw Ratchet at the premier as his
carriage was passing. The hatchet fell
between Mr.. and Mrs. Asquith, who
were on the rear seat of the carriage
and then to the floor Of the carriage.
Mr.. Redmond was seen IN q moment to
be bleeding from cut in the eye, but
as nobody had seen the hatehet strike
him, it is thought, perhaps, the handle
of the missile had grasped the Irish
leader eye Just before it landed be-
tween the premier and his wife,
Ovation to Visitor.
The crowds in the streets gave the
visitors an ovation and upon arriving
at the hotel insisted upon speech.
Mr. Asquith said this was the first
time the chief minister of the crowd
had visited Ireland since the act of
union and it was quite beyond him TO
thank the people for the magnificent
welcome they had accorded him. He
came, he said, on q mission of peace
between arti6ciallY estranged people.
They would not forget Grattan and
Paruell, now that they were about to
enter into the fruits Of the labors OF
these two leaders. The premier assured
his hearers that he was the ambassa-
dor of peace between ireland and
Great Britain and he assured them, in
behalf Of the Liberal party and Brit
ish democracy that the Liberals meant
to bring the cause to a speedy issue.

SCIENTIFIC FARMING
BY The Better Farming Publicity Bureau

BY The Better Farming Publicity Bureau
BIG BUSINESS AND THE FARMER
Big business all over the country has
suddenly awakened to the fact that the
farmer needs instruction in the matter
of farming. The bankers. the manu-
facturers, the railroads and the real
estate boosters are forming organiza-
tions and employing experts to instruct
the farmer how to till the soil. The
latest development in this missionary
work among the heathen farmers is the
scheme of big mail order house, that
has accumulated millions farming the
farmers, to devote some Of its profits to
the instruction of the farmer and. in
cidentally, to advertise its business.
But this scheme as we'll a. the others
of its kind has met with Indifferent sue
cess and the reasons are apparent to
anyone who will take few moments to
analyze the situation.
THE THEORY IS WRONG
That the average farmer should know
and apply better and more scientific
methods We al admit. There il no
question about it. But the farmes Is no
more ignorant regarding his work and
profession than Is the average business
and professional man regarding his work
and profession. In fact, tho average
farmer is more successful than the
average business man. 1t is we'll
known fact that over 80 per cent of
men in business fail. Everyone knows
that tho average business il conducted
on anything but business principles.
We know that the average business
man is in sore need Of instruction re-
garding his own business. But now
listen suppose the farmers should or
ganize and raise fund for the purpose
Of instructing business men in the
ethics and practice of their particular
business, and in carrying this out. sup
pose they should select from the busi-
ness colleges >nd the universities nice,
clean, bright young men and send them
out to instruct the banker, the mer-
chant and other so-called business men
how to handle their affairs, would the
movement become . bowling success?
How many of these bright, young busi-
ness instructors would get 80 far ~ the
inner office of bank. manufacturing
concern or into even the sanctum Of .
newspaper Office? And yet this il just
what these self-appointed missionaries
to the farmers propose to do. They
propose to select from the agricultural
colleges bright, young men who have
made good records in school and estab-
lish them in the various counties %
keepers Of the agricultural conscience
of that particular vicinity.
