MAN WITH KNIFE.
Fred Graves Cut His Sweetheart and
SIashed Man.

Fred Graves, an ex-convict and po-
lice character cut Rose Sims and Louis
Darling while in a drunken rage Sun
day afternoon. He was arrested about
an hour later by Sergeant Sauls and
is being held by the police until the
result of the injuries of his two vic
Tins are known. Graves and The
woman are negroes, while Darling is
a half blood Indian and lives near
Mayetta.
Grave and Rose Simms were sweet
hearts. They had a fist fight on
Monroe street just north of Crane
street. The woman proved an equal
combatant for a time Finally seeing
that he would overpower her, the wo-
man started to run and he cut her in
the back.
After cutting the woman. Graves
started west on Crane street and met
Darling just east of Quincy street.
Darling had attempted to assist Graves
in the fight with the Simms woman. A
few words were said between the two
and then Graves sIashed Darling's
throat on the left side and over the
left eye. Darling dropped on the side
walk and it was thought for time
that he would die from the loss of
blood.
After cutting Darling. Graves went
TO North Topeka and was on his way
out of town when he was arrested
by Sergeant Lon Sauls on Laurent and
Buchanan streets.
The knife which he used in cutting
his victims was open and sticking in a
match pocket in the right side of lis
trousers. Sergeant Sauls and Detectiva
Foiles had been hunting for Graves
ever since receiving the report at the
police station. They went to Nc
Topeka and turned west to the Up
Gegraff farm and then secured toe
neighborhood on foot Upon reaching
North Topeka again. Sergeant Sauls
communicated with the police station
by telephone and returned to Laurent
and Buchanan streets. Sauls had
just left the home of H. z. Gains, an
expoliceman, and walked out on the
sidewalk when he saw Graves.
Sergeant Sauls asked for the knife
and Graves gave it to him and then
submitted to arrest without murmur.
After being arrested he inquired of the
condition of his victims and expressed
a hope that he had killed both of
them.
Rose Simms and Louis Darling are
reported to be improving at Christ's
hospital and it is thought that both
will fully recover.

METHODS OF The TRUST

His Experience in Colorado.

Denver, Aug. 12.-Taking of testi-
mony was begun here today before
Special Commissioner Wilson B. Brice
in the governments suit recently in
stituted in New York to dissolve the
so-called sugar trust" under the
Sherman antitrust law. Two wit
nesses We're examined, the questions
of the government being designed to
show what if any efforts were made
either by the American Sugar and
Refining company or any of its sub
salaries to gain control of independ-
ent sugar plants in Colorado or
whether any obstacles had been
placed in the way of independent COM
panieS successfully carrying on bust
ness.
G. H. keyes of Denver, who oper-
ated a small sugar factory at Brighton,
Colo, from 1904 to 1907, testified as
to how he was forced to shut down
his plant through a series of strange
accidents, including the pouring of
molasses into his boilers and the plac-
ing of crowbars in the machinery of
his elevators. He also testified that
a number of his superintendent had
left at the height of his sugar cam
paigns, one superintendent offering to
reimburse him after admitting that he
had secured a better position with
rival concern mainly through his hav-
ing entered Mr.. Keyes' employ.
Plat Rogers, general counsel and
director at Holm, Colo, testified that
indirect overtures had been made to
his company by the American Beet
Sugar company to sell out, but nothing
ever came of the alleged negotiations.

barrow Trial.

Los Angeles. Aug. 12.-Deputy Dis
trfct Attorney Joseph Ford opened the
arguments before the jury in Judge
Hutton's court this morning in the
trial of Clarence Darrow, charged with
juror bribing.
Ford's address marked the begin
ming of the end of the famous trial.
Ford will probably occupy the entire
day in an argument on evidence The
barrow jury enjoyed the last of its
Sunday outings yesterday. 1t was an
automobile trip to Santa Ana and then
to Naples where a basket luncheon
was served. Juror Blakesley who has
been slightly indisposed recently stat
ed today that he had fully recovered
and hoped to be in the best of con-
dition during the remainder of the
trial.
The question of seating the people
who will throng the court room dur
ing the arguments has been arranged
to a certain extent. Members of the
jurors families had seats reserved for
them as did mem bers of the families
of attorneys for prosecution and de-
Tense. Visiting attorneys were also
given preference within the court
room. The seating capacity was prac-
tcauy all covered by ticket, but the
doors will be kept open during argu-
ment and there is plenty of standing
room in the hall.

CAMP AICN COST
Stubs and Curtis and Capper
File Accounts.
Cost Stubs $500 to Be NOmi-
mated to q. S. Senate.

Governor ". r. Stubs spent $500 to
land the Republican United States SEN

reported by both Stubs and Curtis,

less expensive than the Bristow-Long
fight of four years ago. In that cam
paign Bristow spent more than 5000
and Longs expenses were in the neigh
borhood of s., 600. it is claimed.
Most of the expenses in the recent
campaign were for the three main items
advertising, postage and stenogra-
piers. Arthur Capper. the successful
candidate for the Republican noniina-
tion for governor, spent a little more
than $1,000 to land the nomination ana
his opponent. Frank Ryan. spent about
$500. In the 1908 primaries, Stubs
spent about $1,000 and Cyrus Leland 8

torial nomination. were about $1,000.
Returns compiled today indicate that
Governor Stubs has more than 10o
legislative districts in his race for the
United States senatorial nomination.
Late returns have failed to definitely
decide the Burch- Buchanan contest, al
Judge Burch has a slight lead. Nc
light has been shed on either Hodges
Billiard or Thompson-Farrelley con-
tests 1t is believed that both Hodges

in barrow Argument.

Los Angeles, Aug. Uninterrupted fire.
quently by objections on the part of
the defense attorneys Assistant Dis
trict Attorney W. J. Ford began the
opening argument to the jury in the
bribery trial of Clarence s. Darrow.
Opening with a comparison of the ac-
Cused and Francis Bacon as man
whose sentiments were noble-his
practices ignoble." Ford said history
WAS filed with such men. Among the
utatiOn who have committed crimes
he named Judas Iscariot and Benedict
Arnold.
The first interruption was that OF
Mr.. Darrow who excepted to Ford s
designation of former United States
Senator w z. Mason as 'Lorimer :
seatmate." Mason was one of Oar
rows character witnesses.
Darrow ami Attorney H. H. Appel
were both on their feet with obJec-
ton when Ford denounced the defend
ant as responsible indirectly for the
blowing up of the Times building by
teaching there is no such thing as
crime.
Appel protested that the prosecution
was going outside the evidence and
Judge Hutton warned the speaker to
desist.
Going into he history of the McNa-
mara case, Ford defended what ne call
ed the stool pigeon system as a ne
cessity in enforcing the law, and de-
nouncfng Darrow's avowed belief in
the right TO pry likewise into the Sc
cretS of the prosecution.
