Raid Well Planned

The JOB evidently had been we'll
planned out before hand. Entrance
was gained through the office of DR..
A. L. Farnsworth, second fiat, into the
rear room, which is occupied as a part
of the drug store. There were no
locked doors to hinder the robbers
then from coming down stairs and
making a raid on the main floor of the
store. DR.. Farnsworth left his office
about $50 o'clock to answer a call in
the country. The door to his office
has a spring lock and the robbers ma
nipulated this with skeleton key.
They then entered the operating a.
partment of the office, moved a glass
instrument case and ripped the cleats
off of door which has been perma-
nently closed. Being papered over
[ the door, served as portion of the
partition between the office and the
drug store.
Or. Farnsworth Notifies Owners
DR.. Farnsworth returned from his
call about 2 o'clock this morning and
when he entered his office he noticed
that his instrument case was moved
out of its usual position and also the
pieces of wood strewn about the floor.
But since there was nothing missing in
his office and the fact that the main
dohr to his office was locked the same
as usual when he entered, he thought
that very likely some one of the drug
store men had for some reason or
other opened the door in the partition.
After DR.. Farnsworth had arrived at
his home he remarked that possibly
thieves had been at work in the drug
store. About o'clock he called up
one of the proprietors of the store and
told him about the broken door. Off
GERS were noticed at work with practi-
carly no clues. @1H
Make Fruitful Haul
The robbers carried away $8.51 from
cash drawer and stripped a fountain
pen case of a $225 display. This is all
that has been MISSED at present, other
discoveriessgwill possibly be made la
ter as careful inventory of the place
has not been made
On Sunday morning bloodhound
from Richland Center was in Baraboo
and an effort was made to locate the
thieves who entered Fisher Brothers
store and carried away cash and foun-
tain pens. The effort was not success
full on account of so many having been
around the place after the robbery was
committed. In order for dogs to
work it is necessary to have fresh
scent, the smelling of something han
died by the one sought before another
person has been near. The owner of
the dogs says the scent may be taken
up five days after the person has gone
away if no one else has been over TIE
ground.

TWO NEGROES KILLED
In OCONEE, BATTLE
THAW MUST
STAND TRIAL

Washington, Dec. 21.-The right of
New York State to extradite Harry X.
Thaw from New Hampshire was up
held today by the United States su~
preme court in a unanimous opinion
reversing Judge Aldrich of the feder..
al district court of New Hampshire,
Justice Holmes, speaking for the
court, declared the case was "too clear
for lengthy argument" and swept
aside as irrelevant all contentious of
Thaw'S counsel.
Conspiracy to escape from Mattea-
wan insane asylum, to- which he was
committed after killing Stanford
White in 1906, is the charge on which
Thaw stands indicted in New York.
On this indictment, once the prisone.
is again in the hands of the New York
authorities, will begin anew Thaw's
battle against being returned to Mat
teawan.
After 30 days, unless counsel for
both sides join in asking for earlier
action, the supreme court will issue
mandate to Judge Aldrch to set
aside his decree in habeas corpus pro
ceedings which obtained Thaw's re-
lease by the New Hampshire authori-
ties. This will cause Thaw, now at
liberty under guard of a federal court
custodian, to be turned over to the
State of New Hampshire and pave the
way for his immediate extradition to
New York.
Thaw's counsel sought his freedom
on the grounds that the indictment
against him charged no crime; that
If he was insane, the New York au-
thorities contended in placing him in
tho asylum he could not be guilty of
the crime of conspiracy for which his
eNtradition was sought.
The supreme court held in effect
that the question of the prisoners
sanity or insanity was one to be de-
cided by the New YORK State courts
that an eXtraditable crime was
charged, and the only question be-
fore the supreme court was the legal
lty of the extradition of prisoner SO
charged.
Legal authorities who have follow
ed the case predicted today that a
wide field of controversy would be
,rened up when the New York court
were reached. In this connection. II
WAS recalled that -du~ing. the argt-
inent recently Chief Justice White in
timated that immediate Imprisonment
of Thaw in Matteawan without trying
him on the conspiracy indictment
charge might give rise to another ha-
beas corpus proceedings in the fed
cral courts

and family the other two rooms of
the house. Yesterday Mr.. Ellenberg
heard them Quarrelling and heard the

thought they were fighting but did
not suspect the actual nature of the
struggle. A little later Tolbert came
to the door and asked Ellenberg's
son to go for the sheriff, saying he
had killed his wife. He had a knife
in his hand.
Mr.. Ellenberg sent for Superinten-
dent McCuen. When Mr.. McCuen ar
rived he found the woman dead on
tn" floor and Tolbert sitting bv the
fire smoking cigarette. Tolbert told
him he had choked her TO death. Said
it had been done about l o'clock in
the afternoon. 1t was then = o'clock.
Sheriff Mcmillan and DR.. Lyon were
soon on hand and the examination
showed the woman's neck broken.
The doctor observed that the woman
seemed to have been strangled and
Tolbert replied that she was, that he
had chOked her to death. He was
carried to jail There was consider
able talk of lynching but cooler coun-
.sel prevailed.
The dead woman was about 22
Years of age. Tolberts appears to be
20. He IS from The MeCor-

we have succeeded in securing q

forth to fill it.

1--WE have secured a six thousand
ton ship to sail from Charleston and
it will take approximately 500 car
loads of food stuffs to fill it. Georgia

WAREHOUSE BILL
PASSES AT LAST
JUDGE WILLING TO
APPEAL FRANK CASE

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. 2l.-Fcdcral
Judge W. T. Newman, after hearing
extended arguments here today, de
clined to issue certificate declaring
that, in his opinion, there was "prob-
able cause for an appeal to the Unit
ed States supreme court in the habeas
corpus proceedings instituted by Leo
M. Frank, who is sentenced to be
hanged January %, for the murder of
Mary Phagan.
Judge Newman said, however, at
the close of the hearing that he was
wiling to allow Frank to appeal to
the higher court but that he would
not certify the appeal.
Under the law of 1908 governing
appeals in habeas corpus proceedings
from federal district courts, Frank
lawyers contend, Judge Newman's de-
clslon means, in effect, that they must
go before some individual justice of
the supreme court at Washington and
make application to him to grant an
appeal before the matter can be pre-
sented to the highest tribunal They
said they would do this as soon as
possible.
To Washington Again.
teoHdru I1aaS ana Harry A. Alex
ander, of Franks counsel. left for
Washington late tonight to make ap-
plication to a justice of the supreme
court to grant an appeal. 1t was re-
ported that they probably would re-
quest hearing before Justice Lamar
as their initial step on reaching the
capital.
In announcing his decision today,
Judge Newman said:
81 would be glad to have the su-
preme court pass upon the question
presented in this preceding, but since
have heard the petition and decided
that L could not issue the writ, be-
leve that | cannot say there is prob
able cause for an appeal To do so,
1T seems to me, would be contradic-
tory. To have granted the writ would
have meant the discharge of the pris-
oner and from the record and what
was presented, l did not feel that |
could do that.
Judges Decision.
II am willing to allow the appeal
but canEot give certificate of prob.
able cause for the same.
The court stated that he would give
to Franks attorneys copy C his
opinion in denying the writ last Sat
urday, and also statement of his
reasons for his decision today, which
they. might present to the supreme
court In connection with their appli-
cation for an appeal.

"Dymamiters" to Get Pardon?

Governor Blease is considering {:
pardon or parole for w. r. Belcher
and Robert Wilson, two of the three
defendants who were convicted at the
last term of the sessions court here
on charges of rioting, in connection
with the attempt to dynamite the
county iail a year ago.
This is understood here as the
meaning of the request for informa-
tion" received by the clerk of court
Yesterday from the executive office

The other Of the three men convicted,
no mention is made from the govern
or's office
The clerk is complying with the
governors request and will. in the
neXt day or two, send him the facts
IN the cases.
Immediately after Judge Moore had
sentenced the men to three years inn
orisonment, notice of appeal was Civ
Ell, and the men are now out on bond
pending the hearing of this appeal in
the supreme court. 1t is presumed
that some petition must have been
lodged with the governor asking the
exercise of executive clemency i'm
these cases.
The attempt to dynamite the coun-
ty Jail was made when a mob endeav-
ored to get hold of the negro Will
Fair for the purpose of lynching him.
Fair had been incarcerated on the
charge of criminal assault upon a
white woman. At his trial jury ac-
quilted him of the charge.
Another request was received from
Governor Blease in the case of Paul
Chandler convicted Of rape. In addi-
ton to the usual printed questions,
the following is appended at the bot
tom of the sheet: "Also, please state
color of party upon whom assault is
alleged to have been committed"
