Five Physicians
On Stand Declare
Chester Normal
Two Doctors Say They Heard
Defendant Talk While
Under Influence of
= Anesthetics.

Kansas City, June 3.--Five ply
sicians who attended Denzel Chester
in the city hospital here after his
return from Broken Bow, Neb,, las,
November, testified at his trial that
in their opinion the man was nor
NAL and that he had not been mis-
treated. Two of them declared they
had heard him talk while under the
Influence of anesthetics. Since he was
brought from Broken Bow, Chester
has been mute.
Chester, who is accused of having
killed Miss Florence Barton, testi.
fed Wednesday that he was mis-
treated at the hospital.
During the trial Chester has COM
municated with his attorneys in writ
ing and his testimony yesterday was
written. 1t is the contention of his
attorneys that he was subjected to
nistreatment at the hands of de-
sectives, which permanently deprived
him of power of speech.
Yesterdays evidence was intro.
by the state in rebuttal after the de-
dueed by the state in rebuttal after
the defense had rested its case.
Laughing Gas Used.
DR.. G. w. Robinson, a neurologisr,
testified that, in his opinion, Chester
was able to talk when he left the hos
pital, January 5, and that he believed
he could have been discharged SOON
er. DR.. Robinson said that laugh
ing gas was administered to the pa
tient by his direction to ascertain
whether there was any affection or
the throat. In his opinion, he said,
there was not.
DR.. G. II. Thiele, an inferno, told
OF being present when Chester talked
while under an anesthctic. He said
as nearly as he could remember,
Chester said: "Oh, God. let me talk

Several Hundred Proclama.
tions Dealing With Regula-
tions for Civilians Issued
Before Aug. /, 1914.

Cambridge. Mass, June 5.--Of-
fetal German war documents and
war time periodicals, some presented
by Ellis l.. Dresel, American COM
missioner at Berlin, has Just been
added to the collection being. made
at the Harvard university library.
A study of several hundred war
proclamations dealing with regula-
tions for the civilian population, sales
of food, war loans, etc, showed that
several issued apparently prior to
August |, 1914, were not dated. The
date posters began on August |, and
thereafter every proclamation bore
a date.
The question whether the dates on
the earlier publications were omitted
by accident or because they were
prepared in advance is one on which
the Harvard university announce
ment says historians will draw their
own conclusions.

Durango, Colo, June 3.-Discov-

believed to have been different
race of cliff dwellers from those
who inhabited the ruins in the Mesa
Verde National park was reported
by Charles Hayes of Maneos, Colo,
wfN returned today from an explora-
ton trip.
The discovery. he said, was made
in an almost inaccessible region to
the north OF the Navajo mountains,
unmarked by trails. Hayes said he
believed he was the first white man
to view the ruins, many OF which
were larger and better preserved
than those in the Mesa Verde Ma
tional park.
The dwellings were found, he said,
at the point where the mountains
break away into the deep canyons
that open into the San Juan and
Colorado rivers.
Other discoveries have been made
by scientists near Pagosa Springs,
according to reports received here.

/ disarmament, we should consider the
question OF naval disarmament or re-

Eorah amendment provides"
Actor Postponed.
Representative Kelly of Michigan
moved to send the bill to conference
without instructions, but Mr.. Gar.
3rett objected and action was post.
poned till Monday.
Senator Borat said the broadening
sof his amendment is exactly what
the opponents of disarmament want.
1T seems to me ii those who are
suggesting that tie disarmament

] land forces as well as naval forces.
will reflect upon the situation as it
now exists in Europe, they will read
lily conclude that to thus broaden
the amendment is to kill the whole
proposition he said.
1T is impossible to make any head
way at all in the way Of land dis
armament at present in Europe. At
the, meeting of the Geneva assembly
France stated plainly that it would
not consider the question OF disarnl-
.ament at this time and it refused to
even vote for the principle OF dis
armament 1t gave as its reason
that its situation was such that it
would not ard could not take such
action now. Six other nations fol-
lowed it. To include land disarnla-
ment, therefore, is to kill the matter
outright.
Naval Situation Different.
with reference to naval disarma-
ment the situation is entirely differ
ent. The three nations which are
now actually engaged in naval race
are the United States, Great Britain
and Japan. The French navy is
third-class navy, so recognized, and
they are doing practically nothing
toward bringing it up to date. The
Italian navy is in like condition.
sBut Japan, the United States and
. Great Britain are expending millions,
even billions, in building navies and
they are the only three powers which
bid fair to enter into competition for
the next Is or 50 years. So far as
land disarmament is concerned, it
does not make any difference to the
United States, as matter OF secur-
ity. how many troops France has.
The house has very wisely limited
our army to 10000. France has an
army of 100000. But it didn't make
any. difference to the house in cur
failing our army that France had
800, 900.
If we are sincerely going forward
with the question OF disarmament and
sincerely desirous of curtailing ex-
penditures and reducing the chances
Of war, we will start where we can
start and make progress, and that is
with the naval powers which are now
in actual naval building competi-

cathedral at Lincoln should be taxed
the Omaha cathedral was without
the law because it was primarily
charitable institution.
