Omaha. Oct. 21.-Perhaps there is no
person in America that is better ac-
quainted with the case Of Mendel Bel
lis. the Jew accused Of being the MUIR
derer Of little Yushinsky, than Mrs.
Jennie Dabimm of 3017 jackson street.
Dabimm recently came to this
country. and besides being acquainted
with Mendel Meilis, worked as a do
nestle in the house Of Zitisive, one OF
the owners OF the brick wards where
mendel Bells was employed.
According to her story. the Jewish
people of Kiev believed the whole af-
fair to be a put-up job. A number Of
Russian people employed in the brick
works found the body Of young 'Yu-
shinsky. and to get even with Bells.
who was foreman of the brick works,
took the body and placed it near the
home OF Bells, who lived close to the
brick works: Several hours after the
body was found. Bells was arrested
and accused OF the crime.
The h%ardships endured by Bells are
most difficult to believe says Mrs.
Dabimm. He was refused bail and for
nearly seven months no one was al
lowed to see him No emb of his
family, nor lawyer was permitted to
interview him. His eyesight. never
too good, was practically destroyed
from being kept in IN underground cell
i'll the large jail at Kiev. He also be-
came deaf and sick. contracting a cold
which nearly caused his death.
Held Without Bail.
Numerous attempts We're made to Sc
cure his bail. but without avail. Some
of the most influential Jews in Russia
pleaded his u but without success.
His former employers and even Rabbi
Aronson were refused the privilege of
bailing him out. His family mean
while was being taken care of by
of the owners Of the brick works, Mr..
Because Of his fathers arrest, the
eldest boy became partly insane. At
times he would not come home for sew
eral days at a time. Whenever any,
body would knock on h door he
would hide under the table, fearing
that the police had come to arrest
him.
Many prominent lawyers OF Russia
were disbarred for trying to take his
part. In a short time it became so
that other lawyers would not try to
him for fear that they would
also be disbarred. All this time Bells
had had only a small preliminary trial
with no friends to testify in his be-
half.
: ,;Beilis was greatly respected by his,
friends. He was known as a steady
worker and rather we'll educated. His
children, of whom there are four. were
sent to school. As the Russian laws
will not permit yer 10 per cent of
the students going to public schools to
be Jews, Bells out Of his salary paid
sending his children to school"

Plea of Guilty In District Court by
Former County Clerk Was Made
This Morning and Sentence
Pronounced.
FEW IN COURTROOM
viii be Taken to Fort Madison PenI.
Tertiary This Afternoon or To-
morrow Morning by
Sheriff.

G. Bruce Lake, until few months
good fellows a respected officer of
the Lee county district court, and
prominent member of nearly all of
Keokuk fraternal organizations, was
today sentenced to the penitentiary at
Fort Madison for term of ten years,
following plea Of guilty to embez-
element by public officer
The action of Lake in changing his
plea to one of guilty, was not unex-
pected, but 1t was not thought that it
would be made until the latter part
of the week. Consequently there
were few people in the court room
when he appeared.
Lake was accompanied by one OF
his attorneys, w G. Blood, and the
state was represented by County At
torney E. w. McManus. Mr.. Blood in
formed the court that they wished to
change their plea to one Of guilty and
asked that sentence be pronounced
| Immediately.
| Judge Hamilton, in pronouncing
| sentence upon the ex-clerk, declared
that it was with sorrow that he was
compelled, by his duty to take the
action, in view Of the prisoners form
er close association with the court,
but said that he had no other course
to pursue, and sentenced Lake to ten
years in the penitentiary at Fort
Madison.
Lake appeared in better health to-
day, than at any time when he ap-
peared in court, since his fncarcera-
ton in the county jail. He seemed to
have recovered entirely from the ef-
fects Of his dissipation, prior to his
arrest and was completely at ease dur
| ing the ordeal. AS sentence was pro.
nounced he allowed his glance to fall
upon Judge Hamilton for an instant
but quickly lowered his eyes and con
tinued to stare at the floor.
1t is likely that Lake will be taken
to Fort Madison by Sheriff Crimmins
this afternoon, although 1t may be
that he will not go to the prison until
tomorrow.
None of Lakes relatives appeared
in court this morning. 1t is said that
! the efforts of the former clerks
father to raise the money to make UP
the amount stolen by his son were
futile and that there was nothing tic
do but make the plea.
/ Lake did not say anything during
the time he was in court and accept
ed his sentence In stoical manner.
