THE HISTORY OF THE NEWSPAPER SLUGGERS'
ATTACK THAT LED TO SHOOTING OF VETTER

A slug of lead somewhere between
his right shoulder blade and spinal
cord, his right side paralyzed and
motionless, Phil Vetter is in. the Col
umbus Hospital, $500 Lakeview av.
Newspaper gunner belonging to a
crew that went out Monday morning {
to "get" Vetter came before Judge
Scully at the Sheffield avenue station
yesterday afternoon for preliminary
hearing. Carrying deadly weapons
without permit, assault with deadly
weapons and intent to kill, are the
charges.
The hearing was postponed till
Feb. 6, when more will be known
about Vetter's condition. Though he
will probably get well, there is pos
sibility of the case having a murder
charge. The police reported to the
court yesterday that it will be two
months, at least, before Vetter is able
to leave the hospital. Bail was fixed
at $4,000 each.
The two men are William Miller,
%, of 1047 Sedgwick street, who
gives his occupation as a newspaper
circulator and says he is employed by
the Chicago Journal, and John Roul-
in, 10, who refuses to give any street
address and says he is a newspaper
circulator employed by the Chicago
Examiner. Two revolvers were found
in the pockets of Miller.
William Bauler, a son of Aid. John
H. Bauler of the 22d ward, is one of
the witnesses to the shooting. He
was friend Of Phil Vetter and was
seated at table in the fruit store of
James Candies, 1859 N. Ashland ave-
nue., yesterday, morning, when the
slHggers came in. The other two
companions were Thomas Kelly, 1858 /

SLUGGERS'
SHOOTING OF VETTER
Hermitage avenue, and Carl Stuke,
4001 Graceland avenue.
The story of the shooting was told
to Day Book reporter by some Of
the chief witnesses. Phil Vetter, who
worked in the bakery of his father
at 1916 Irving Park boulevard, and
who is an athlete and ballplayer, was
sitting with his three companions, in
the Candies fruit store. Jim" Candies,
the owner of the store, was called on
the telephone two times a little after
ten o'clock. Somebody was asking
him foolish questions over the
phone, he said. A third call came.
While Candies was in the phone
booth two men came in at the front
door.
Both pulled revolvers and aimed
them at the four young fellows at
the table. The four jumped up. Kelly
got back of a tall looking glass at the
end of the room. Phil Vetter was
just going to edge behind the looking
glass. A bullet took him and he went
down to the floor crumpled and
moaning. ,
The two gunner ran out of the
side door. Officers Peter Christensen
and Robert A. Wells a half block up
the street had heard the shot. They
ran toward the fruit store and saw
two men run down the alley that par
allels Ashland. A half block down the
gunner gave up. All of the people
who saw the chase made by the plain
clothes men agree that it was nervy
and good work by the police. i
A friend who ran into the fruit
store to look at Vetter found the
young athlete stretched on the fooE
in pain though not bleeding. 1

''He looked dangerous, said po-
iceman.
Fifty dollars and COSTS" snapped
the judge, without looking up. In the
back of the court some one heard a
moan. 1t was Rosenberg's wife. She
had tainted.

When the other men saw the way
Judge Fry was dealing out justice
they asked for jury trials.
One man, Paul Weinstein, who was
arrested later for carrying gun and
whom the police claim was one Of
the mob, was fined $25 and costs.

NEGRO PREACHER
 KILLS HIS WIFE Charles Benson Shoots When Woman "Turns Him
 Down."

Lula Benson, a negress 38 years of age, was fatlaly shot Sunday evening by her husband, Charles Benson, a negro Baptist preacher, who was in censed because his wife refused to re- turn and live with him. The shooting took place at Eighth and Florida street, and was witnessed by three negroes. Benson eluded arrest and is still at liberty. The woman died about two hours after being shot. Coroner H. B. Williams held an in- quest over the body of the dead wo- man yesterday morning. The verdict was that the woman had been killed by her husband.
 Chief of Police Frank Stewart, Night Chief w. D. Fiveash and City Detevt- i've P. c. Roebuck investigated the killing, but no trace of the negro has yet beeen found. n
 The woman was shot twice with a .38 calibre revolver.
 Benson is a'large, heavily built ne gro with dark brown skin, and walks with limp, being slightly crippled in
 one leg. He was formerly pastor of negro Baptist church in this city, but
 at the time of the shooting had no
 regular charge. Officers fin the surrounding towns have been natified to be on the look
 out, and Chief Stewart is keeping a close eye on the case and expects to
 land the fugitive. 2.

METHODIST WOMEN
 TELEGRAPH PLEAS
Wire to Conference Urging Granting of Laity Rights
 to Women.

Oklahoma City, Okla, May 11.-A week of activity faced the delegates of the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, when they met for the first session of their second week here today. Af- ter the. usual devotional exercises, Bishop Hoss took the gavel as presid- ing officer of the day
 The call for memorials and peti- tions brought forth number Of new proposition, but the majority related to matters already placed before the conference and referred to commit tees.
 Rev. H. M. Dusbie of Atlanta pre- sented to the conference a redraft of the memorial from the North Georgia conference, asking that the body. in view of the seeming severance of all connection with Vanderbilt Universi- ty under the decision of the Tennes- see supreme court, take steps to es- tablish a ne wtheological school.
 The reports of Dr. F. J. Prettyman, fraternai delegate to the Protestant Methodist church in Baltimore in 1912; Rev. Frank M. Thomas, delegate to the Methodist Episcopal church at Minneapolis in 1912; and Bishop Mur- rah, delegate to the Japan Methodist church at Tokio in 1911, were read
 The secretary also read fourteen telegrams from women in various parts of the country urging the granting ot laity rights to women.
 Some of the most important matters expected to come up for consideration during the week besides the Wander bilt case are the case of laity rights of women; removal of the four-yeal time limit on itinerant preachers; lim- i it of the tenure of eight years on bishops;. a limitation of the tenure o1 presiding elders; the election of z missionary bishop for the Orient, an( the redistricting of the church into Episcopal residential districts. Among the things done during the first four days of the conference per haps none stands out more distinctly than that of giving to laymen equa
 representation on the standing com
 mittees, especially on the committed of episcopacy.
 Originally laymen were given repre- sentation on this committee, but fol some reason, since 1870, during whicf year Gov. Cruston Polk of Missouri was member of the committee, lay men have not been accorded repre- sentation. The rule or custom seems to have been allowed to lapse.

NEW SCHEDULE
 ON P. B. & A. R.
Will Permit Waldstein Peo- pie Making Trip to City
 in Short Time.

r A new schedule that will probably be put into effect on May l7 by the Pine Bluff & Arkansas River rail- way will prove of great convenience to the people of Waldstein, as it will enable them to leave home at o'clock i1 the morning, reach Pine Bluff two hours later and give them until III the afternoon to transact business, permitting them to return home the same evening without the necessity of changing cars either coming or going.
 The new schedule will be the re- suit of efforts of Secretary E. $. Bloom of the Chamber of Commerce, who began work on the proposition at the request of number of resi- dents of Waldstein and vicinity. By the schedule now in effect the mixed train leaves Waldstein at 4 o'clock in the morning, reaching Rob Roy at I a. m. Passengers coming to Pine Bluff must remain at Roy Roy until 10:30 a. m., when they can board the train on the Stuttgart branch of the Cotton Belt and continue their journey. As the distance from Wald- stein to Pine Bluff is only twenty five miles, naturally the people of Waldstein who do most of their trad ing and other business in Pine Bluff have felt they had just cause for complaint at being required to spend six hours and change trains in mak- ing the trip to this city.
 The schedule as prepared will be
 accepted by the railroad company,
 should the majority of the citizens desire the change. The present
 schedule will be arranged May IT, and the one as outlined by the Chamber of Commerce can be secur- ed if those interested will call at
 the secretary's office during the
 present week and demand it.
 Up until the present time only one
 man on this road has protested
 against the new schedule going~into
 effect, but his objections were so strong that the matter was left to the people patronizing the railroad as to whether or not the change should be made. t-'

, revealed that three Brazilians, one Chilean and one Peruvian were found among the "snipers" at Vera Vruz ar rested by Funston. The Brazilian ambassador has lodged a protest with the state department aginst the de- tention of the Brazillians, and in view of the relations with the Brazilian government, both the BraZilians and the Chilean will probably be released.
 MediatOrs Worried.
 The mediators today held lengthy sessions which were protracted into the night The alarming develop ments in Mexico were discussed with President Wilson by Minister Naon yesterday and Secretary Bryan was called into the conferences today.
 Four protests have been lodged with the mediators by Huerta against the United States for alleged breaches of the armistice. Two relate to the Lbeos island incident, one was against Funston's extension of his lines, and one protest against the United States governments chart eriug of additional transports. Concerning the latter protest, the state department has replied that they. were not aggressive, but merely precautionary acts, and will reply that the seizure of Lobos island was "philanth copic act" The mediators explained today, apparently in re- sponse to charges from either Car ra1za or Huerta, that they must in no sense be judged as taking sides in the Mexican controversy, and that they are frying, in an impartial way, to aid in pacifying Mexico.

armistice kept the A c mediators in long and worried sessions, while the war department was meeting this situation by a conference between Secretary Garrison and all the off cers of the general staff on the de- tails of calling out militia and re- serve force of 250,000 men. As pre- liminary muster division was established with John D. Wilson of the adjutant-ge2erals office as chief of the muster service.
 Early reports that Counsul Silli- man had been released from prison were shattered by detailed informal tion secured by the navy department, stating that Silliman is still in jail, despite repeated demands upon Huerta- by Secretary Bryan for his release.
 Secures U. $. Code Book.
 The insult at Tampico placed into insig1ificance in comparison with the insult to the American flag and consular offices at Saltillo, where Consul Silliman was in charge.
 After he was jailed by a federal detachment of soldiers, his clerk JOAA NAdACA Wdo dl OolSu, eohCA to the consulate and forced to open the consul's safe. The code book of the state department was taken by the federals together with money and jewels belonging to Consul Silliman.
 It is understood tonight that Sec retary Bryan has given Huerta an ultimatum in another demand for the release of Silliman, and that he has armed him that mediation is hopeless while American consuls are held il prison.
 Full information on the seizure of Lobos island, near Tampico, and against which action Huerta has twice protested; was made to the navy department today by Admiral Badger.
 He stated that soldiers and sailors under Admiral Mayo found the light house abandoned, and took charge of it as purely diplomatic measure. The light is one of the most import ant on the east coast of Mexico, and will be kept burning by the United States. despite Huerta's objections.
 Brazilians Among ''Snipers." Another development of the day was the report of a reply by General Funston to the Mexican general Banquet, who charged Funston with having extended his lines. Funston denied that he had extended his out posts, but said "he strengthened them." In Funston's report it was
