Her manner was very vivacious, and the nervousness noticed during the progress of the first trial had entirely disappeared. After nine talesmen had been exam- ined and refused Justice Davis, who will preside at the trial, intervened and assumed the role of examiner. Miss | Patterson carefully considered the | capabilities of each talesman, and fre- quently suggested questions for her counsel "to propound. She expressed a desire that no old men be accepted. The men accepted were Thomas H. Harmon, receiving teller of a bank, who will be foreman; Willlam J. Lee, a manufacturer, and Thomas Farrell, a merchant. More than 100 men were ex- amined during the’'day. The work of selecting a jury will continue to-mor- row. ————— To Adopt Eight-Hour Day.

BELITILE CASE OF COVERNMENT {Attorneys for the Defense in Oregon Land Frauds: Talk in Behalf of Clients| PORTLAND, Dec. 5.—The argument of counsel for the defense in the land fraud cases commenced to-day, Law-, rence F. Puter of Eureka, Cal., brother of one of the defendants, being the first speaker to address the court and jury on behalf of the persons accused by the Federal Government of a con- spiracy to defraud the United States out of public lands. The speaker held | that the Government had failed to make out its case against the prisoners, {and attacked the testimony of the | Government’s principal witnesses, Mon- tague and Heidecke, as being unworthy of belief. Counsel claimed that the principals in | the defense were innocent purchasers of the lands and not responsible for de- ceptions practiced upon them, and that | the persons whom the Government | claims are fictitious are living human | beings, who actually went upon the; lands in question. Judge O'Day ridiculed the testimony of the defense and belittled the wit- nesses. His argument was exhaustive in detail and covered the history of the case from its inception. When Judge O'Day concluded the court adjourned until to-morrow. It will take another day to finish the trial. Special prose- cutor Heney will ocecupy the forenoon with argument and possibly lap over into the afternoon. Following this will <ome the charge to the jury by Judge Bellinger. Tt is thought that the delib- i iia -_——— | urday the deplorable financial situation erations of the jury will be brief. —_—— YOUNG PUTNEY DISCHARGED FROM UNITED STATES ARMY Wealthy Southerner Dismissed With- out Honor for Enlisting Under False Pretenses. WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.—The War Department has directed that Recruit Stephen Putney Jr. of the general service, Jefferson Barracks, Missouri, be discharged without honor from the army on the ground that he enlisted under false pretenses. Putney is a young Virginian, who recently got into trouble in St. Louis, resulting in the loss of all his money. One of the stories was that he had been kidnaped and robbed of some valuable family jewelry, and that he enlisted in the army while suffering from the effects of a drug given him by the kidnapers. Putney is the son of a wealthy Southern family. ——— . Colorado Man Injured in France. DENVER, Dec. 5.—E. G.

AT THE POLLS | | Four Persons Convieted by Colorado Court and Will Be Sent to Penitentiary WINKED AT REPEATING Others Are on Trial for Corrupt Work in the Late Election in That State —_— DENVER, Dec. 5.—Frank J. Kratke, | | the city license inspector; Joseph Ray. | | Edwara O'Malia and Charles KofSky | | were to-day adjudged guilty of con- | |tempt by the State Supreme Court and were sentenced to jail. The sentences |are as follows: Kratke, one year im- | prisonment and $1000 fine and costs; | Ray and O'Malia, six months’ impris- | onment and $500 fine and costs each; | Kotsky, three months’ impriscnment and $250 fine and costs. | 'These men were officials in the re- | cent election and were accused of dis- | regarding the court’s injunctive order. The principal charge against them was that they permitted repeating. Carl | Wilson, election clerk in the same pre- cinct, was found not guilty of contempt. | Arguments were heard this afternoon | on the contempt charges made against six other election officials. Experts | George H. King and M. M. Hamma | submitted reports differing in detail, but practically agreeing that sixty-one Democratic ballots were written by fcurteen persons and seventeen Repub- lican ballots by six persons. The ad- | ditional charge was flled against the accused that they stuffed the ballot ! box. No evidence was offered in their defense, but their attorney, John G. Taylor, declared in his argument that the Supreme Court watchers were | equally as guilty as his clients. { | District Judge John I. Mullins im- | paneled a Grand Jury in the Criminal | Court to-day and will to-morrow de- {liver his instructions to them in re- | | gard to investigating election frauds. Judge Mullins questioned the jurors particularly with reference to their | connection” with corporations or bank- | ing institutions and from this it is in- | ferrcd that he will instruct them to | make special inquiry concerning large campaign contributions and the uses to which they were put. Before United States Commissioner Capron to-day was begun the hearing of the second lot of officials charged with conspiracy to intimidate voters. The defendants are: Max and William | Schradsky, Max Sissack, Sam Slatkin | and Sadie Pleusner, Democratic work- | ers and officials. The complaining wit- | ness, Rose Snyder, a Republican pre- | cinct committee woman, testified that she made attempts to vote during the | | forenoon, but each time she was pre- | vented. Other | ‘witnesses testified to the | same facts, one adding that a woman worker was so badly beaten by men, | who were handling the Democratic | end of the precinct work, that she | was unable to leave her bed for a THL | week following. The trend of the tes- | timony was that Schradsky ran af. | fairs at this polling-place with a high | hand. FIUNTINGTCON .. e - e — rl Takes Strychnine. SAN LUIS OBISPO, Dec. 5.—Mary | Cordero, a young woman from Ven- tura, committed suicide at the Grutli Hotel, in this city, yesterday after- noon by swallowing ten grains of strychnine. The deed was witnessed by Antonio Pena, and doctors were | hastily summoned, but the young | woman resisted treatment and died in half an hour. ——————— PROFESSOR STEPHENS LECTURES.— Professor H.

BEBEL AGAIN AT NS CONS BERLIN, Dec. 5.—Herr Bebel, the Socialist leader and the keenest critic of the Government at all times, ana- lyzed the budget in the Reichstag to- day. Secretary of the Treasury von Stengel, he said, had sketched on Sat- | of the empire in terms so true that he regretted the French custom could not be followed and the speech be posted throughout the country as a minister- ial declaration of the position into which the country had been drawn by the Government's policies, the national debt having increased $100,000,000 dur- ing the year. Why, then, he asked, should the army be increased? Why should the/ naval programme be continued? Why should immense sums be sunk in the colonies? Why shouid these and other policies that together formed the so- called “world policy” be carried for- ward on an enlarged scale when the bel in the statement that if a great European war breaks out the socialists | will profit thereby, adding: “There is further reason why the \Governments of all the great powers are maintaining their present peace policy.” Referring to Herr Bebel's description of the internal conditions of Russia, Count von Bulow remarked: “When Herr Bebel thus warms up over Russian autocracy he condemns himself without knowing it, for the manner in which he lords it over his own party corresponds with the Rus- | sian conditions that so displease him. | The order of things he wants to intro- country was thereby being brought into | duce with us would lay Russian despo- the most serious financial embarrass- | tism in the shade.” ment?
