newspaper reporters sitting half doz-
en- steps away The jury found him re-
sponsible for the girls death.

lionaires empanelled to conduct the

the hands of Hans Schmidt"

ors included Vincent Aston. b. j.
Greenhut, merchant; Mortimer Re-
gensberg, cigar manufacturer, and f.
S. Marston, banker.
When Schmidt was brought into the
courtroom he appeared to be calm.

unusual move till the coroner had con-
cluded his charge to the jury.

Schmidt tore the rosary from his neck
and before detectives could stay him,
had snapped it into many parts and
hurled them at the newspapermen.
The torso of the victim was identi-
fled by Anna Hirt, who roomed with
the Aumuller girl at the parish house

brown mark on the bosom which may
have been a birthmar<, furnished the
means of Identification.

confessed

Giant Regulars
Given Workout.

New York, Oct. 3-The Giant regulars
were given another thorough workout in
the way of worlds series preparation,
today, and again gave Manager McGraw
qualification by the lively manner in
which they touched up the ball. One of
the little managers greatest worries has
been the hitting slump uhat struck his
team last month and only recently show
ed signs of cessation.
Yesterday. however, the Giants did
some excellent work with the bat against
first class twirling and again today. they
besprinkled the greensward at the Polo
grounds with safe drives off the delivery
of Camnitz and Finneran. Fletcher, one
of the teams main relianees at the bat
in these days and Burns another man
who is delivering many a timely blow
were the leaders in the smuggling. Larry
Doyle was again in the game. showing
Improvement in suppleness after his re-
cent injury, over his work of the day be-
fore. Another of the regulars Fred
Snodgrass, made his first appearance in
"tuning-up' game. Snodgrass sprung
Charley horse" last week and still
moves about with modieum of the ac-
tivity he usually displays on the field.
He worked out for while at first base.
and took couple of turns at bat, polling
out a hit in one of them. MeGraw now
expects the ordinarily fast center fielder
will be able to get the kinks out of his
system in time to play his part up to the
mark in the battles of next week.

third big series twirler who has shown
splendid form in the tryouts. Demaree,

Clifford Pinchot.

Clifford Pinchot, who was Chief For
ester iii the Roosevelt administration,
tonight urged his fellow Progressives
to strengthen the party so that when
Col Roosevelt returned from his South
American expedition it might be even
a better instrument for the public
good, even a keener weapon against
the men who control this country to
its hurt
He declared that the Progressive
Service was the most effective means
to obtain this end because it makes
the voter think
We are living under the magnate
SYSTEM" said Mr.. Pinchot. 1T is not
pleasant to realize. but it is true, that
cur country is governed and controlled
for the benefit of a small class. That
fact is the overwhelming Justification
for the existence of the Progressive
party, and was the direct cause of it's
birth No argument is needed to show
that our politics have long been con-
trOlled for profit by the man behind
the political boss. Not only are our
laws largely magnate made but they
are SO often interpreted in the interest
of magnates that in constitutional
cases cur platform advocates the re-
call of judicial decisions as neces-
sary remedy. We all know that the
men who control the great corpora
tions dominate business In America.
How shall we carry our work
through? First. by letting the people
know Just what We propose to do;
then by letting them know ex-
actly how we propose TO get it done;
and finally bringing to bear the power
OF public opinion we have created or
organized. For all this we have a
means that is new in political history,
the most effective ever devised for the
permanent establishment of sound pol
itics. I mean, of course, the Progress
siye Service. No such body OF men
and women, devoted to spreading the
Principles Of political creed, has ever
been brought together before. No SIM
liar evidence of high and unselfish
devotion to the public welfare has ever
before been given by a political
rarity"
