ASSOCIATE OF OUTLAW HAD

ADMITS THAT HE is THE MAN

Guthrie, Okla, Jan. 27.-Ben GRAY
ems, who was arrested at the doors
of the Missouri penitentiary few
months ago when he finished serving
four year sentence under the name
of Charles Maust, was today SEN
fenced to life term in the federal
prison at Leayenworth, Kan, for the
murder, IL years ago, of Alvin Bate

Cravens no longer denies his iden-

But there is one thing certain .

been passed upon him, when l get

Welty who was Cravens' companion

ITALIANS SEIZE A
FRENCH VESSEL
THE TAvieNANo, BELIEVED TO
CONTAIN CERTAIN CONTRA
BAND, Is STOPPED.

Rome, Jan. 27.--The French pas
senger steamer Tavignano which was
seized by Italian torpedo boats last
might off Biban, Tunisf has been re
leased. A semi-official note issued to
day explains that the French steam
er Tavignano was seized by the Ital-
ion torpedo boat destroyed Fulmine
at distance of nine miles to the east
of Zaris and outside of French
waters.
AS it was rumored that the Tav-
ignano was engaged in carrying con-
traband and as the Italian officers, on
searching the vessel. did not find
any customs receipts on board, the
steamer was escorted to Tripoli. Three
hours later, however, after thorough
inspection of the ship had not re-
vealed any contraband, the Tayig-
nano was relesaed.
The semipfficial note points out
that the presence of sailing vessels
led the Italian officers to believe that
the Tavignano was about to unload
but it does not mention that any
barges were shelled.

ROOSEVELT STRONG
in MICHIGAN STATE
GOVERNOR OSBORN DECLARES HE
COULD CARRY THAT STATE
BY 100000 VOTES

Chicago, Jan. 27.-"If Roosevelt is
nominated he should carry Michigan
by at least 100000 votes, "said Cover
nor Chase 'E. Osborn at the Roosevelt
national headquarters here today. The
governor said he believed Roosevelt
would be candidate if the people OF
the country demand it.
Asked if he thought either President
Taft or eSnator La Toilette would &C.
cept his suggestion that they retire
in favor of Roosevelt, the Governor
said:
IF Roosevelt is candidate, yes,
but they probably will not retire vol
UNFAIRLY. With Roosevelt in the field
they probably would retire during the
convention, for he would be nominat-
ed"
Governor Osborn suggested to the
committee that meeting Of the COM
mittee be held here on February
to determine whether the people really
desire Roosevelt for candidate. He
said that the sentiment could be de-
termined by that time and If it were
not favorable it would be useless to
continue the work. A meeting was
called for late today to act on his
suggestion.

MASSING AN ENORMOUS ARMY
100000 MEN ARE NOW PREPARING
TO MAKE ADVANCE UPON THE
ANCIENT CAPITAL.

San Francisco, CAL, Jan. 27.-Presi.
dent Sun Vat Sen of the provisional
Chinese republic, has issued an ulti-
matum declaring the Manchu throne
must be abdicated by 8 o'clock on
the morning of January 29, the date
set for the ending the armistice be-
tween the government and the repub-
hcans, or an attack will be made on
the capital. This information reached
here today in cablegram to the
Chinese Free Press.
An army of 100000 men is headed
toward Peking, according 10 the
cablegram, which further declares that
within 30 days 100000 revolutionary
troops will be marching against the
city. The imperial general, Tun Kee
Sui, has forsaken the Manchu cause,
says the dispatch, with his army of
10000 men and joined the revolution
ary army at Shao Kan, in the province
of Hupeh. A cablegram received by
the Chun Sal Vat Po, Chinese daily
paper published here, says Chan
Quing Ming has been urged by Presi-
dent Sun Vat Sen to continue in Of

He resigned several weeks ago
to lead an army against Pelzing. Chun

General Lang Pi Injured.

Picking, Jan. 27.-General Liang Pi,
a high Manchu official and former
commandant of the imperial guards.
was injured, perhaps fatally today,
by a bomb thrown by an unidentified
Chinaman in military uniform. The
man hurled the bomb from the side
of the road as Liang Pi was alighting
from his carriage to enter his home.
Both Of the generals legs were broken
and torn and the immediate amputa-
ton of one limb was necessary. The
assailant himself was instantly
killed by the explosion. General Liang
Pi was a strong reactionary and had
been supected of implication in the
recent assassination of General Mu
Lu Cheng.
The agents of .he revolutionary
marty in this city recently intimated
that a dynamite campaign was not i'm
probable in the near future. Yester-
days and today's affairs may be the
beginning of a series OF similar
crimes. 1t is evidently the intention
of the dynamiters to pick out tn
prominent officials and military Off

Medical men were put on the stand

Miss Williamson was responsible for
her death. Counsel for the defense
said he wpuld attempt to show that
Miss Williamson had been suffering
from serious ailments all her life and
had been failing for eight years when
she placed herself under Mrs. Haz-
yards treatment as last resort. He
Will attempt to prove that Mrs. Haz-

to eat or could assimilate.
1--WE believe Mrs. Hazard did as
much for Claire Williamson as any
doctor of the regular school," declared
counsel excepting that she did not
perform a surgical operation, which
we believe would have resulted in
death sooner. We hold that death
was due. not to starvation, but to Sc

EDITOR ISSUES STATEMENT
DECLARES HE WAS NOT ONLY
AUTHORIZED TO BOOM PRO-

| Washington, Jan. Ex-senator Ben
jamin r. Tillman of South Carolina
today declined to reply to Colonel
Henry Watterson's challenge of last
night in connection with the Waiter
son-Tillman-Harvey-Wilson contro-
versy.
"If Colonel Watterson has any
proofs of what he says he ought to
publish them. l have nothing more
to say" This was Senator Tillman's
only comment. 1t had been reported
earlier in the day that he would make
a detailed reply. Colonel Watterson
In the meantime had issued another
statement in which he said:
s'In my letter to Senator Tillman

by me that might be disputed. Gov
ernor Wilson denies that / had any
authorization from him or any agent
of his to raise money for his cam

"I hold myself ready to furnish this
proof to Senator Tillman at once If he
will do me the honor personally to
call on me, as l am confined to my
hotel and cannot call on him. If
Senator Tillman's single averment af-
ter inspecting this proof be either
equivocal or insufficient, / propose
that Governor Wilson name two con-

four to name a fifth and this court
of gentlemen be established to deter
mine the issue between us. must
insist that this be done without de-
lay, as I shall leave Washington next
Tuesday night to I'LL important en-
gagements elsewhere"
Tillman later dictated the follow
ing: Senator Tillman declined to be
interviewed further in regard to the
incident, saying there was no longer
an issue between Colonel Watterson
and himself. The issue is now between
Colonel Watterson and Governor VIII
son and they must settle 1t for them
selves. So far as he was concerned,
he considered the matter settled and
ended"

THOSE MARGIN SHEETS
Still IN EVIDENCE
THE TRIAL OF THE PACKERS is
CHARACTERIZED BY TECHNl-
CAL TESTIMONY.

Chicago, Jan. 27-Cross-examination
of Steiner G. Langher, margin clerk
for the National Packing company, by
Attorney John Barton Payne to show
the varying margins and selling prices
of shipments of beef from the same
plant sold in different cities was con-
tinued in the packers trial today.
The witness read lists of shipments
showing the weights, margins and
selling prices of beef sent from the
Chicago, st. Joseph, Mo-, Kansas City
and Omaha plants of the National
Packing company to eastern cities.
The period covered was from 1907
to 1910 and the prices ranged from
5 to 81 cents a pound. Several in
stances were referred to where there
was difference of more than a cent
a pound in the prices of dressed
meats sold in an eastern city the same
day.
BY these comparisons the defense
endeavored to refute the statement
that the cost and margin system used
by the alleged packers combination
was uniform and played an important
part in fixing the selling price Of
fresh beef. The witness produced the
"red books" in which the average
sales and margins we're kept
Langher testified that ten copies
were made of all the weekly margin
summaries. One was sent to L. b.
Patterson. vice president; one to J..
J. Risch, superintendent Of shipping,
and one to each manager of the six
shipping plants of the National Pack
ing company.
