to hold up their hands. They ordere,.
the pay roll car to stop, and as il

Chief Sweeney was shot under the

The latter's injuries are serious.
The foldup occurred two blocks
from the bank and the robbers
escaped in an automobile.
Chief Sweeney said he was shot as
the bank messenger guided the auto
mobile tc stop and that Benson
was the second to fall. Mr.. Soffe.

revolver when he was shot dead.
Sweeney, despite his wound, ran to
the bank two blocks away and turnsJ

American relief workers. who
originally cautiously placed the

Strange Malady Found
in Greeley County

Grand Island, Neb., Jan. 5.-(Spe-
cial.)-Five cases of a strange ma1ady
of mild and not serious nature
have been treated at the St. Francis
hospital in this city. They are called
sporotrichosis and it is claimed that
l23 cases in former German colonies
in Africa and 73 cases in the United
States comprise the number known
to science in 1898 the German health
department appointed a commission
of scientists to investigate a new dis
ease, apparently blood or tissue, ap-
pearing among the settlers of her
African colonies and these found that
the disease started below the finger
nails, due to a scratch or thorn, al
infection being thus carried to the

small nodules, similar to buckshot.
became visible. All the five cases
came from Greeley county and are at

Governor S Talk Effective

Lincoln, Jan. 5.-(Specia Telc-

favorable report will be laid before
the state convention OF the farm
bureau tomorrow, at which more
than 10000 Nebraska farmers are
represented, 1t also is urged tina;

This action was taken after Gov
crnor McKelvic had appeared befoic c
the convention and explained that
the gasoline tax would relieve gen.
eral property of $l,000,000 in taxes
and reduce the state levy 10 pes
cent The argument that tourists
should be made to pay some of TIE
cost OF road upkecp. and the state
ment that this was not to be an cS-
ira tax, but was to replace present
ones and lower them, appealed 20
the farmers.

fax county. The other members
are: Lewis Anderson, Nance: 0. o.
Johnson, Sheridan; Z. r. Fuchser.
Saunders; L. T. Woodland Thayet.,
and Walton Z. Purdy, Madison. Mr..
Purdy, who is prominent demo-
orat, dissented from the majority re-
rort on the belief that the tax would
overlap. The other members mair
tain that their recommendation that
the gasoline tax should not become
effective until July /, does away with
any possible duplication, since per
sonal and property taxes extend
only to that time. The committee
also accepted the governors offer %
exempt gasoline used in stationary
engines and tractors.
The committee report also en-
dorses the farm bloc in congress for

Alienist Tells

tempting to Railroad" AL
legged Slayer-Burch ''Pre-
fers Asylum.to Hanging"

Los Angeles, Cal,,5 Jan. 5.-Dr.
Thomas ]. Orbison, alienist. was un-
der cross-examination by the defense
when court was resumed today for
the trial of Arthur c. Burch. charged
with the murder Of J. Belton Ken
nedy. DR.. Orbison handed the de-
fense a surprise when in reply to a
question asking him to repeat a con-
versation he had in the jail with
Burch, he said the defendant had
told him he. preferred to take his
chances of being tried for insanity
rather than being tried for murder.
The defense, which closed Tuesday,
was largely predicated on claim OF
insanity,
DR. Orbisor also testified that
Burch said he would rather spend
10 years in all asylum than be
hanged.
Burch talked, the ,alienist testified,
Of being released from the murder
charge and permitted toreturn to his
home near Chicago with, his father.
He said, according to the witness,
that he thought that he could gradu-
ally drop from public view and get
new start in life.
The physician said he told Bureh
that should he be found insane, he
might have to remain in an institu-
ton in California instead of being
placed in his fathers custody. Cross
examination was continued after this
account of the conversation.
When questioned about different
conversations he had held with
Burch, the witness said Burch told
him his doctors, lawyers and family
were trying to railroad him to the
asylum" DR.. Orbison said he did not
consider this delusion, because he
believed it to be fact.
