 Dr. Roberts was temporarily excused l to permit the taking of Steiner's testi- mony which dealt with statement l he had obtained from Miss Lusk in the hospital a few days after the tragedy. He said he asked Miss Lush if she realized what she had done and that she replied: Yes, I do, I killed her because she called me such obscene names"

The league offered to pay farm workers S4.50 day but the proposition was fin ally rejected because the l. ". ". de ! manded $5 a day, as the minimum wage.
 1 In one of the official bulletins men 1 tion was made that the defense of I. 1 W. W. in the state of Washington had cost the organization $23,000. l An extract from one of the official | l. W.

Mike Wolf Of Terre Haute, Ind,

may not be his wife, whom he
charges with the theft of money
from his wooden leg. Today his
heart softened somewhat and he has
indicated that the matter of money
is not so important to him as get
ting back his wife.
The woman was arrested and will
be arraigned tomorrow before Jus
tice T. NJ. Wheelock.
Wolf told a peculiar story to the
Moline police. He said he was in
the restaurant business at New
Richmond, Wis, and Mildred work
ed for him. She suggested marriage
and he accepted. They went to st.
Paul in 1916. There she entered a
large building and came out with a
paper, telling him it said they were
married, he said. Wolf can not
read the English language and he
took her word for it, according to
his representation They went
back to Wisconsin and he sold the
restaurant. He said he gave her
$4,000, and he kept his money in
his wooden leg. They went to
Terre Haute, Ind, and she disap-
peared To the Moline police he
