Ho seemed to need a re- volver. And the fact that men carry such guns @s these on thelr persons Is an i ferencé that they are potentfal murderers. Judge Rends Stotutes. Judge Munger's chargé to the jury was brief. He read the statutes of the United States covering such offenses as are charged against these defendants in the three counts of the indictment. Each count of the indietment must be regarded as directed against each of the five de- fendants and the verdict must be returned accordingly. The verdict might be in favor of or against each of them for all three counts, in favor of or against each one om each separate count. The first count charges the simple fact of robbery of the mail. The second, com- mitting the robbery and putting the postal clerks having custody of the mail In fear of thelr lives and the third, violently as- saulting the al clerks and threatening them with deadly weaponsyin perfecting the robbery. The . tragedy minated when Edwin M. Grigware of Spokane, the worn and anxious tather of Frank Grigware, one of the de- fendants, broke down under the plea of Attorney Macfarland for the life of his son. The eldér Grigware has been present dur- irig all the long days of the trial hoping and praylg that there might be \some evidemce that shall clear his boy of the crime, the penalty of which is life im- prisonment. 1le has smiled hopetully at some favoring point of the evidence, and relapsed into almost despalr when the finger of fate seemed to point with fear- ful earnestness at the probable gullt of lils son. Yesterday ‘morning, wheh in his closing argument, Mr. Macfarland pleaded with the jury to give this broken-hearted father his ‘boy, Mr. Grigware rled to suppress the tears that would stream down his anxious face; but finally he leaned for- ward with his hands covering his face and his whole frame was shaken with sobs. Pleads for Grigware. ‘These are the last words that I shail address you," sald Mr. Mactarland to the Jurys’ "It 5-only q%uuc of suspicion that of the trial cul- ras been directed aghinst this boy, for he is yet a bay, I plead with you, gentlemen of the jury, to glve this boy, just on the threshold of young manhood, with the world of hope before him, with a record of £ood from his cradle to but a few months ago, when he became accidentally assocl- ated with these men A man would indeed have a heart of stone to blast this young lite,” Mr. Macfarland began his argument at § o'elock and concluded at 12:15. He made a careful review of the testimony, under- | taking to show that it was only susplcion that was directed against Shelton and Grigware. Nothing incriminating had been found upon them that could connect them with the robbery of the Overland Limited. | Even the sugpicions and eircumstances | @gainst them, he held, were vague, con- | tradictory and uncertaln. He alluded to | the fact that the: entiré enginery of the government, - the Pinkerton Detective egency and the Unlon Pacific rallway had been hounding theke boys, spending in the sggregate §200.000 to bring witvesses from every quarter of the country to testify against them. “And then,” he said, ‘“‘they did not produce enough evidence to hang a dog.” MR.BRYAN DECLINES T0 TALK (Continued from First Page.) Showdown, Until he speaks every prospec- tive candidate, figuratively speaking, will be up the alr. Oregon Plan Boomerang. Incidentally it is beginning to look as if Mr, Bryan's own pet Oregon plan of select- ing senators in Nebraska is going to rise up like a ghost and help block his own way to the upper house of congress. For Instance, were it not for/ that law which he had passed, Mr. Bryan could keep out of the fight and then should the dem- ocrats control the legislatute, with Hiteh- cock et al. dividing the vote he naturaily could take the office as a compromise can- didate and without asking for it. As the matter now stands and the Infor- mation comes stralght, from rellable sources, Mr. Bryans fears to run and hates to get out of the way. It has been reported on several occasions that the law providing the Oregon plan of electing senators is to be tested In the courts and that attorneys have already been consulted about it. Some democratic lead- ers who have been In consultation with Mr. Bryan hope this report is true, so they say, and they are now of the opinion Mr. Bryan himselt hopes that the law will be declared unconstitutional, and that is one reason why he has thus far refused to commit himself on his own candidacy or Intentions. Howard to Sound Toesin, Insofar as the Bryan-Howard-Dahlman conference yesterday is concerned, It had to do with platform and with Mr. Bryan's intentions, Mr. Bryan talked to Dahiman and Howard, not together, but in private— that is, he discussed the questions with one and then the other, so there were only two present at each conference. That Mr. Bryan fully decided on his program at that con- ference there is not the least doubt and it | is a4 safe guess to say that the main points of the platform will be sounded through Edgar Howard's papers within the next few weeks, If not sooner, And it is also safe to say the program will not call for county option in the plat- form, but it will .eall for several amend- ments to the Clocumb law, among which will be this: Making it a misdemeanor for a liquor dealer to sell to a minor and for a recond conviction the punishment shall be imprisonment in the penitentiary. The 8 o'clock closing law will be.endorsed and probably there will be one or two gther proposed amendments, including a. fine for the liquor dealer who permits treating in his place and revocation of licens: When Judge Howard turns loose tafe to say he will be speaking by it is the | cards, for it is not likely that he, after & conterence with Mr. Bryan, would publish anything which does not carry the o. k., of the presidential candidate. Mr. B.yan called upon Governor Shal- lenberger today and after the comference he was asked whether he s to be & can- didate for United States senator, he will make a statement before he leaves for the south. “No, I-will not,” replied Mr, Bryan. “If you would keep informed on all matters 1 desire to glve out, you ,uld read the Commoner, for I shall pub. h in that such things as I deem It important the public should know.

GAINES Coroner’s Jury Declares Murderer Some Person Unknown. DEAD MAN HAD KEY IN HAND, Must Have Bee Home When Fo Fired, Abont Enter | r Shots Were | Twe of Them | Being Fatal, Mrs. Stella Gaines, her daughter and niece heve been released from custody as a re- day afternoon, following the inquest over | the body of James L. Gaines, the negro | clubman, who was murdered at the door of hls home, 1716 North Twenty-elghth street, Tuesday night. Mrs. Gaines, her | daughter and niece, had been held, but | evidenee introduced before Coroner Heatey | yesterday dispelled the belief she was re- sponsible for the death of her husband. The fact that Gaines when found had the key of his home In his hand put some- what of a damper upon the suspicion of the police that Gaines had: been killed | within his own home, and the verdict of the coroner's jury so strengthened this be- llef that the three women were immediately released. Nevertheless, Investigation into Gaines' death ie to be continued with in- creased vigor. The verdict of the fjury, after listening to all of the testimony, was | that Gaines came to Lis death by a gunshot | wound at the hands of some unknown person. Had it not been for later developments the widow would probably have been held. Mrs. Gaines told an apparently straight- ferward story while on the witness stand, but the testtmony glven by her li-year-old niece was strange. Dr. A. D. Dunn, coroner’s physiclan, was the first witness examined. It was he | who Wednosday night conducted a post | mortem examination of Gaines' body. The witness testified he found four gunshot| wounds on the body, two of which would | have caused death, the other two not. One wound was through the heart and Insian- taneously fatal. This bullet went clear through Galnes' body. Another wound was two and A haif inches below the third rib and slightly to the left, It went out through the back, plercing the vietim's lver. ! Much Younger Than Husband. Mrs. Stella Gaines, the widpw, was the next witness, She gave her age as 2 and that of her husband as 4. She sald she first met Gaines in Omahe three years ago while on a visit here. Questioned as to her life with Gaines, Mrs. Gaines sald they had had serious dlscussions on dif- ferent subjects, and that Gaines appeared to be jealous of her, but, she asserted, for no-reason. Gaines, said the witness, didn’t want her to go out to dances. The quar- rels were soon over. In July of this year there was a serlous altercation. / Following this brawl Mrs. Gaines sald | there was no animosity between the two. Leading up to the date of the killing of Galnes the county attorney, who was con- ducting the Inquest, asked Mre. Gaines when, on Tuesday last, she had last seen her husband. The witness replied at about 4 p. m. Galnes left the house at that time and at 9 o'clock she retired. She was awakened, she knew not at what time, by hearing shots and screamseUpon going outside with her niece she saw a dark ob- Ject lying a short distance from the steps leading to the porch. Then she returned to the house, the light which she carried hav- ing gone out. Upon her return to the poreh several men came running from the dirgetion of Decatur stréet and she called to them: “Far heaven's sake, come here and see what this " "And what did you discover?' was the question put to Mrs. Gaines, “I discovered my husband,” she replied. Dr. Harrig then testified as to the bul- lets found in the body, after which Lols Young, Mrs. Gaines' niece, was called to the stand. The girl sald she was awakened by & horrible sound. After that her testi- mony was substantially a corroboration of that given by Mrs. Gaines. A number of | other witnesses were examined and the | verdict rendered as above, AMERICAN SYSTEM OF MONEY (Continued from First Page.) tainly is not my purpose— to try to make any part of the American people belleve that any of these systems could be adopted in the United States; certainly not without very important modifications.
