MOROCCO BEAT US; SCORE WAS 12 TO 6
Rensselaer Bed and Black Trailed In the Dost For the First Time in a mile. _ „ >' Morocco defeated Rensselaer at football 1 ' Saturday by the score of 12 to 6. There seems to be some just grounds for contesting the last touchdown made by the visitors, as Goddard, who skirted the left end of the line and reached the center of the goal posts, dropped that., ball when tackled and Captain Ernie Moore, of the Rensselaer team, fell on it. But Atkinson, their referee, said that the ball was down in the possession of their man and pronounced the touchdawn good. Whether or not the touchdown was legitimately earned, the score, 12 to 6, just about represents the merits of the two teams and Morocco outplayed uS during most of the game. Goddard was the real star for the visitors. He is small of stature, but built from the ground up and his running and dodging qualities have seldom been equaled among high school visitors. He was ably supported by John Smart, the big fullback, who was somewhat of a ground gainer himself, and who excelled anything we have seen in the accuracy with which he passed the hall in forward pass plays. Smart runs too high to get the very best results, but he plants his liberal feet with great firmness and is a hard one to bring down. The Rensselaer players worked with their customary grit, but they seemed to lack team work and during the last part of the game especially seemed unable to form suitable interference or to successfully hold the line against the attacks of their ppponents. in the beginning Captain Moore won the toss and chose to receive the ball. Morocco chose to defend the west goal. The periods were arranged 10-15-10-15. Morocco kicked off at 2:55. McCarthy received the ball and returned it 8 yards; Miller 1. Chpate 2 and again 5. Miller again made 5 and then Putts made 9 around left end. After a short gain by Choate, Miller skirted the left end for 25 yards and Choate went around the ring end for 30 and planted the ball over the goal. It was at an- angle from the posts, however, and on the punt out Price and Padgitt both fumbled, destroying the chance of kicking goal. It had required only 4% minutes to make the touchdown and the ball had not been in Morocco’s possession. It looked as though Rensselaer would win easily. Rensselaer almost made another touchdown during the first period, but Morocco finally held them. The ball continued to go over and back during all the first half, until just at the end when Smart got around the Rensselaer end, ran about 35 yards, and evened the score by a touchdown, which was also at a bad angle and a punt did not result in. a goal. The score was now 6 to 6 and the Morocco l&ds seemed to be coming the stronger. In the third period Morocco came in for some good luck. Choate failed to catch a punt and Morocco recovered the ball for a gain of 35 yards. They carried the ball by short gains to within about 20 yards of the goal, where Rensselaer braced for three downs and Morocco still had 11 to gain. The referee awarded a* 15-yard penalty against Rensselaer, which would have carried the ball over, but he wae shown that a penalty for the alleged offense could be only 5 yards. That would have left the ball in Morocco’s possession at the fourth down with 6 yards yet to gain. It was the close of the third period and the ball was taken to the other end of the field and the referee gave it to Morocco for a first down. They twice failed to gain and then Goddard got around our right j end for the touchdown. He could' have planted the ball back of the posts without dispute, but he tried tb set it between the posts. It was in doing this that hp was tackled and lost the ball and Captain Moore fell on it. Again their referee ruled in their favor and it is on this decision that the score will be contested before the .Athletic board of the state association. Referee, Atkinson; umpire, Parrett; timers, Illingsworth and Dean; linesman, Morgan, of Butler.

MOTHER CONVICTED OF SOFTS MURDER
Mrs. Louise Linloff Sentenced to Serve Twenty-Five Tears in the State "" _ _ Prison. . ; Mrs. Louisa Linloff, spiritualist and crystal gazer, was found guilty oi murder in Chicago Monday night and •her punishment was fixed at twentyfive years in the penitentiary. She was charged with the poisoning of her son, Arthur. The seeress, who had hll along maintained that her glass of fate showed that she would be acquitted, laughed hysterically and,cast a sneering glance at the jury When the verdict was read. Later she collapsed while standing in an anteroom surrounded by her friends. She was revived and led back to the county jail. “There is no justice here,” the convicted woman sobbed. -The guilty are turned loose and the innocent get the worst of it. I will show my innocence before I am through. It will only bel a question of time. I did not kill my boy or any of the I am innocent and God is my witness.” Motion for a new trial was made by her attorney and the court set Nov. 13 as the date for hearing arguments. The Linloff boy died June 13, last, and thb- state charged that he was poisoned. Mrs. Lindloff was arrested June 14, on suspicion of having poisoned two husbands and her three children. The bodies of William Linloff, one oi the woman’s husbands, and Alma Lindloff, a daughter, were exhumed. June 27, Prof. Walter S. Haines, after a chemical analysis, reported that he had found arsenic in the internal organs of both. June 29, came a dispatch from Milwaukee that arsenic had been found in the body of Julius Graunke, a former husband of Mrs. Linloff. Police investigation proved that the boy, Arthur’s, life had been heavily insured. Other evidence was found, and July 17, the seeress was indicted by the grand Jury. The charge was murder and was based on the death of her son, Arthur. Mrs. Linloff had been in the saloon business in Chicago.
JUSTICE HELD COURT IN COUNTY JAIL
W. L. Wood Prosecuted Ed Frawley For Attempt to Murder Stowers Lust Saturday. V W. L. Wood, of Parr, as prosecuting attorney, represented the state of Indiana in arraigning Edward Frawley, of Fair Oaks, on a charge of murder, last Saturday evening. The case was tried before Squire Bruner, who held court in the jail and bound Frawley over to the circuit court in the sum of SI,OOO, which he was uhable to furnish. Frawley was not represented by He said, that 'he was able to handle his own case and he made an affidavit that some of the witnesses of the state were enemies of his and therefore should not be allowed to testify. The court ruled against 4iis demurrer, however, and permitted all to testify. Isaac JCight, Enos Moffitt, Walter Bozell, Orville Bringle, Lawrence Halleck and Arthur Goff were witnesses and all related substantially the same story. They all said that 'Stowers was an inoffensive old man and not quarrelsome and not physically able to do Frawley bodily harm. Those who saw Frawley’s attack on the old man say that Stowers did not attempt to strike Frawley with an axe told a reporter for The Republican. They say that Frawley and Stowers had an argument and that Frawley started to leave the place where Stowers was working at wood cutting. Stowers started to cut down a small tree and Frawley reached down and picked up a beer bottle and sneaked up behind Stowers and broke the bottle over his head. He then got another bottle and also broke this over his head. Stowers regained consciousness Saturday evening but again became unconscious Sunday and on Monday afternoon had another bad spell. It is believed a blood clot is forming, on his brain and this is quite apt to result fatally. Stowers is a veteran of the civil war, having served in the Ninth Indiana Regiment.

NOTHING LEFT BUT TO COUNT VOTES
Peculiar Campaign is at an End— Everything Points to Election of Woodrow Wilson, It is all over but counting the votes. Tomorrow morning the result of the election will be known. Today there is a quite clear indication that the democrats will be successful throughout the length and breadth of the land. It is reported in some sections of the country that there will be a large number of democrats, who are satisfied with conditions and don’t want to take chances with a change, vote for President Taft, but it is scarcely probable that there will be many more than will vote for Roosevelt, thus little more than offsetting the gain. The progressive party everywhere lias drawn 95 per cent or more of its support from the republican party. Wlhat percent it has drawn no one can tell until the votes are counted. In some localities it is reported that the Roosevelt sentiment seems to have almost enveloped the entine republican party. Such reports come from Chicago, Indianapolis and other places. If this is the case, it is not improbable that Roosevelt will have much greater strength than is indicated by the conservative estimates of Jhe politicians of the old parties. But there were not enough republican voters to make two parties bf and accomplish anything against an almost solid democracy. In Indiana Beveridge will doubtless run several thousand votes ahead of Roosevelt. There has been an effort the past three weeks to elect Beveridge at the expense of everything else. The effort has met Some response. It is quite certain, however, that republicans who understand\ the splendid qualities of former governor Winfield T. Durbin will vote solidly for him. That democrats will vote solidly for Ralston seems quite certain. That he will also receive the support of “wet” republicans is certain. It is not improbable that Ralston will have a plurality of 100,000 in the state. In Jasper county the outcome is as uncertain as®it is in the state and nation. From a leading progressive it is learned that a claim of 910 votes for that party is made in Jasper county. How many of these will vote the progressive county ticket remains to be seen. Probably Tess than half, possibly not more than a third. It is also possible that the estimate of the progressive vote is too high. Republicans have been claiming that there will be no more than 500 on the national ticket. The republican county candidates have made a fine campaign but it has been an uphill job since the advent of the progressive county ticket. If they win they are lucky. It is far from ar encouraging 1 outlook. The vote started to come in at an early hour. The sun was bright in the morning and a beautiful day was promised. This probably caused a number to postpone voting until later in the day. By noon it had clouded up and by 1 o’clock a rain started that has kept up a drizzle all the afternoon. By 2 o’clock about two-thirds of the registered vote had been polled iq Marion township. The election boards are being fed by. the ladies of the Baptist church, who had a kitchen in one of Dr. Baton's small rooms on Cullen street There are 28 members of the election boards and sheriffs. They receive three meals, breakfast, dinners and suppers. The ladies receive 35 cents per meal.
Death and Burial of William Lloyd at Breman.

The Republican today received the following account of his death and funeral from his widow: William Griffith Lloyd- died at the home of Mrs. Lloyd’s mother, Mrs. Benjamin Shaffer, on South Center street', in Bremen, of uraemic poisoning from acute brights disease, after an Illness of only three days. The funeral was held at the Grace U. B. church, Saturday, at 10:30, conducted by Rev. S. I. Lindsey, of Oregon, 111., interment in the Bremen cemetery just out of town. He was formerly a resident of Rensselaer, being employed as coat maker by B. K. Zimmerman.

POULTRY SHOW TO BE HELD IN ARMORY
Dec. 16 to 21 is the Date Decided Upon —Republican is Now Printing the Catalogues. The Rensselaer Poultry Association will hold its annual show this year at the armory, the dates being l Dec. 16,th to 2}.st, inclusive. The association is in live hands and they have already brought a great amount of the catalogue copy to The Republican office and the list will soon be published. It will be a fifty page book, which has been liberally patronized by the merchants of the city for advertising. On the first page the association makes an announcement which argues forcibly that the anntfal poultry shows are doing much to inspire the raising of better poultry throughout the county. This is proven by the fact that better poultry is coming to market than formerly and by the fact that the old scrubby barnyard fowl has given way to the thoroughbred. H. A. Pickett, who has been one of the leading judges at the big shows of the country and who has judged with complete satisfaction the Rensselaer shows for the past three years, has again been secured as judge, which causes the association to say in its announcement, “Therefore, we can promise you that the best bird will win when he judges them.” There is ample room in the armory, over the postofflee, for the cooping and exhibit of the birds and the largest attendance the show has ever had has been at the armory. The building will be well heated and comfortable for both poultry and visitors. The principal prizes this year will be silver cups instead of money. This diversion was decided upon by the managers and it is believed will meet the hearty co-operation of all exhibitors. The cups will be something that can be kept a lifetime and will be worth much more in the effect they will have than a cash prize. All thoroughbred poultry raisers should exhibit at the show and help to make it a success. Get your birds ready for exhibition purposes and apply to any of the officers for further information. The officers are, Everet Brown, president; W. R. Nowels, vicepresident; H. B. Murray, secretarytreasurer. The executive committee is composed of Riley Snyder, J. M. Sauser, A E. Wallace, John Webber and H. B. Murray. ,

COURT DECIDES IN FAVOR OF CLERK
Decision is to Effect That County Clerks Are Entitled to Naturalization Fees. Judge Remster, of the Marion county circuit court, Monday decided that Leonard M- Quill, a former county clerk, was entitled to retain the fees, amounting to $1,298.50 in naturalization fees. Following a report by the board of examiners which charged him with being short that amount, the commissioners brought suit. Judge Remster held that the fees were retained by virtue of a federal statute and that the Indiana law is void so far as it conflicts with the federal laws.* The decision will effect the county clerks all over the state, and especially where there are a large number of foreigners.

CARNEGIE PENSION FOR HERO’S WIFE
Widow of Man Who Gave Life in Attempt to Rescue Drowning Persons to Receive $55 a Month. Readers of The Republican will recall the drowning that. occurred last July at Kankakee, 111., when George Burkhalter and Walter Webster, of Hammond, lost their lives in the Kankakee riveT while trying to rescue Mrs. E. Mastellar and Miss Veda Hemstock from drowning. The young women had gone out into the stream too far and were suddenly swept down by the current. The men were standing a short distance downstream and both jumped in and were drowned while trying to help the women to safety. Attorney W. J. McAleer and Rev. F. H. Adams, of Hammond, interceded in their behalf before the Carnegie hero fund commission and Mrs. Burkhalter has just been awarded a medal and a pension of $55 per month for herself and $5 iper month for each of her two children until they reach the ages of 16 years. The widow and her children were in straightened circumstances and the benefaction comes as a godsend to them. In fact, the liberality of the commission is said to have been prompted because of the very needy circumstances in which the widow was left. The case of Webster is still undei investigation. (His heroism was equal to that of Burkhalter but he was unmarried and his widowed mother is in fairly good circumstances.
ROOSEVELT LOST VOTE; SO DID HIRAM JOHNSON
Both Candidates On Progressive Ticket Failed to Register and Therefore Could Not Vote. V • *■ V Theodore Roosevelt and Governor Hiram Johnsqn did not vote today because neither one registered. Colonel Roosevelt intended to register on his return from his western trip, hut the delay caused by his being wounded made it impossible for bim to reach Oyster Bay in time. Governor Johnson, who took up the speaking tour of the colonel, was unable to reach California in time to register. Senator Dixon, general manager oi the progressive national party, comes from Montana. He, too, also lost his vote because he was somewhere else on registration day. " The registration law is no respectei* of persons, and Indiana is having its first experience with it.
NATIONS MAY NOT STOP TURKEY WAR
Powers Seem Disinclined to Interfere and May Let Turks Get More ... Punishment From Bulgars. Turkey asked the powers to intervene and stop the war which Bulgaria and other countries are waging and the result of which looks to be the complete annihilation of Turkey as a nation. The powers, however, seem to think that a little further beating won’t hurt and Great Britain, France and Russia decline to accept Turkey’s terms for mediation with -a view first to an armistice and then for the conclusions of peace. The Bulgarians are pushing the siege toward Adrianople, so as to make their entire army and all their artillery available for an attack on Constantinople. The Balkan states are determined that Turkey shall make its peace with them direct and not through the powers. Make your own mincemeat There is no mipce-meat equal to home-made.
