and a serious race riot narrowly
aveTted at Romeo, eight miles north

a big corps of special deputy sheriffs
from Joliet, sent in answer to the ap-

tered in the lookup door with rail-

and holding her before him as
shield made a savage attack upon
Louis Hanson, a resident of the vii
lage, whom the town marshal had
called to his aid. Hanson killed Win

Immediately the town and country
side were in an Uproar. Sheriff Thorn
as Stevenson, who was notified by

rushed an automobile laden with
armed deputies into the town and
every negro in the section was taken
safely away within half an hour.
Armed deputies met every steam or
electric train at the outskirts of the
village, which is % miles from Chica-
go, and warned negroes not to alight.

COAL RATE PROTEST FILED
adjustment at Hearing Before
State Commission.

Mad1son.-Wisconsin paper makers
were given a hearing before the rail
road commission upon their petition
asking for an adjustment of coal rates
in Wisconsin. Some years ago, after
hearing, the rates were reduced un-
der group plan whereby the freight
charges on coal were the same from
all ports, that is, the rate from Mil
Waukee, ManitoWoc, Green Bay or SUI
perior was the same. Now the rail
roads ask that the rates for distances
that are materially shorter than from
the more distant ports be made lower,
cOntending that the group system as
applied to those localities in which
the paper mills are is not a reason
able scheme. 1t appeared from testi-
ElOny at the hearing that more than
so per cent of the coal used in the
Fox River valley is shipped from Mil
waukee, notwithstanding the fact that
the ports Of Manitowoc and Green
Bay are much nearer. The railroads
contend that she present arrangement
is the best, not only because it is
established but for the reason that
any other arrangements would result
in giving causes for complaint to par
ticular localities.

Ruling.

Madison.-Chairman C. H Crown
hart of the industrial commission
gives out a statement in which he says
that employees injured while going to

not entitled to compensation.
There is some misconception as to
the holding of the commission sus-
tanned by the Circuit court with refer
ence to an employee of the city of Mil
waukee, injured 'on his way to work,
says Mr.. Crownhart THE employee
in this case was directed to report fer
work at a certain place in the city.
He so reported. He was then direct
ed where to go to work. On his way
he was injured.
"The commission held that after he
had reported for work at the place
designated he was performing service
for the city incidental to his employ
ment.'

Sill FER ENDS CASE;
FAILS To TESTIFY
Governor of New York Seeks 10
Shield Wife.
DECISION IS DUE ON MONDAY
impeachment Court Has Three Issues
to Consider in Rendering Verdict
Executives Action Causes
Surprise

Albany, n. Y, Oct 10.-The Sulzer
Impeachment trial came to an end
abruptly on Wednesday, when ex-Sen-
ator Harvey Hinman, who had been
battling valiantIy in defense of the
governor, dropped languidly into his
chair at 3:45 o'clock and murmured;
THE respondent rests"
Delivered on Wednesday, following
the rejection by the court of counter
attacks by Mr.. Suffers accusers and
his defenders, the effect of the an
nouncement was electrical, little short
OF dumfounding. 1t meant that the
fate of Mr.. SuIzer will be decided at
the beginning OF the coming week.
1t required a full five minutes for
the nine court Of appeals judges and
9orty-eight senators composing the
court to relaize the full import of the
statement made by counsel for the de-
PENDANT.
It established the fact that William
Sulzer had no personal defense or ex-
PLANTATION to make of the charges pre-
ferred by the assembly that he has
been guilty Of NAL and corrupt prac-
4ices," involving violations of the cor
rupt practices act, perjury and per
BonaI degradation by indulgiDg in
stock gambling since the people elect
ed him governor in November last by
the largest majority ever given a pO-
litical candidate in this state.
According to D. c. Herrick, chief Of
his attorneys. Governor SulZer decid-
ed not to defend himself in person
because he did not want to be placed
in the position Of shielding himself be
hind his wife-for it was for Mrs. Sal
yer, according to the testimony, that
the governor had his Wall street deal
ings.
Judge Herrick said that the COVER
nor had heard from many quarters, in
Guiding Washington, that amy man
who would shield himself behind his
wife ought to be removed"
Friends of the governor pictured
him as a man who had martyred him
self for the sake of his wife.
Upon the evidence submitted by his
accusers and that of the one vital wit
ness offered by him counsel of both
sides will proceed to sum up in the
effort to establish their conflicting
points of view When they have com
pleted their undertakings the court
will dispose of the motions made by
Mr.. Suffers counsel to dismiss the
three important articles contained in
the assembly Indictment, numbering
eight counts.
IL this final effort to save Mr.. Sulzer
is defeated, the court will proceed to
vote on these three propositions:
Whether or not the respondent (Mr.
Sulzer) is guilty of any or all of the
charges contained in the articles of
impeachment?
If guilty, shall he be removed from
office?
If removed from Office shall be be
forbidden to hold public office again?
The temper of the court at the su-
preme moment of the crisis confront
ing Mr. Sulzer, following the an
nouncement by Mr. Herrick, his chief
counsel, was manifestly unfavorable
TO Mr. Sulzer
The person who assumed full re-
sponsibility and ultimate consequences
of those offenses was the bright-vis-
aged, boyish-looking Russian, Louis A
Sarecky.

CALLS PROFITS TO LARGE
Attorney General Owen Says Wells
Fargo Line Cleared $82,574 in
One Year in State.

Madison.-That the Wells-Fargo Elk
press company received $S2,574 in a
single year on its Wisconsin business
after allowing a reasonable cost, ex-
pense, interest and profits is the bur
den of the answer of Attorney Gen
eral Owen, filed in the express rate
cases.
The railroad commission directed an
order against the six express COM
panies of the state reducing their
rates approximately 20 per cent. All
of the companies filed suit against
the order and it was decided to make
the Wells-FaTgo the test case.
Attorney Mack of Milwaukee in the
complaint of the Wells-Fargo company
says the business is operated in Wis
consin at a loss of 100000, and if the
railroad commissions order becomes
effective it will lose an additional $780,
