"What I have been trying to contend for, and I hope I will be successful, is to secure a hearing for the men charged with this . serious crime. This testimony has been taken as the other was, behind ' closed doors without anybody representing the men. That Is the reason I shall not desist, notwithstanding the president has said as to the character of it from TrM,n-- fnr n In vBt,irHnn nf the subject where especially the men ' who are charged with the crimes of murder, perjury and conspiracy can be heard, to the end that if they can establish any facts in their favor they may have an opportunity to do so."

ed up to this time. One provision makes it compulsory for railroads to carry baggage not in excess of 150 pounds in weight without extra charges, a provision that through oversight was omitted from Ohio's two cent law and which was left out of all those bills presented in the Indiana general assembly up to this time. Representative Condo's anti-death penalty law, modeled along lines of the one which he presented last year, was introduced this afternoon. Owing to the fact that Governor Hanly has gone on record as favoring a statute which will abolish the death penalty, it is believed that -the Condo measure will meet with favor by all legislators who are looking toward the executive for guidance on perplexing measures. The bill presented by Senator Clamor Pelzer, of Vanderburgh county, will have interest throughout the country.

EMINENT IN PROFESSION

IS WELL REMEMBERED BY RESIDENTS ON ACCOUNT OLD OF THE CASE OF JOHN AGAINST WOMEN. - Winchester, Ind., January 14. (Spl.) Judge Silas A. Colgrove, is dead at the home of his granddaughter, Mrs. LVila Steap, at Lake Kerr, Fla. He was ninety years and eight months old. Judge Colgrove was appointed by Governor Morton to fill the unexpired term of Judge Elliott, of this circuit, as a member of the supreme court or Indiana. That same year he was elected president of the Cincinnati, Ft. Wayne & Grand Rapids railway, and on December 19, 1S64, he was named as president of the commission for the trial of Dorsey, Milligan and Bowles, accused of treason. The trial lasted 100 days and the defendants were found guilty and sentenced to death. The sentence was afterward commuted to life Imprisonment and the men were finally set free by the supreme court of the United States on the ground that a military tribunal had no jurisdiction over the offense. In 1865 Silas A. Colgrove was elected judge of the circuit court, composed of Randolph, .Wayne, Henry, Jay, Blackford and Grant counties, serving six years. He was again elected, continuing to occupy the bench till 1879, when he retired to resume the practice of his profession. Successful in All His Efforts. As an attorney he attained marked success; as a judge his opinions were always profound and his rulings just. As a citizen he was enterprising and public spirited. While on the bench Judge Colgrove tried the famous case of John Page against the women of Winchester, in 1853-'55, whjch caused a great sensation at the time. The women broke into Page's saloon and turned his entire stock into the gutter. A civil suit resulted, with damages in $400 awarded. Judge Colgrove was aj -w-uL..

Colgrove and Robinson- engaged in a debate in which the former made serious charges. ; The following Sunday the men met In a hotel at Indianapolis and a fierce fight followed, in which Robinson was severely beaten. In politics Colgrove affiliated with the Whigs In the early days, but afterward he became a Republican. He joined the Odd Fellows of this city many years ago. SHORT STORIES.

CHARGES AGAINST TER PIERCE Former Official of State Department is Accused of Double Dealing. BROUGHT BY H. W. ELLIOTT CLEVELAND PROFESSOR LAYS HIS INFORMATION BEFORE THE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE OF CONGRESS. Publishers Press. Washington, Jan. 14. Sensational charges against Herbert H. D. Peirce, United States minister to Norway, WhQ waa formerly third assistant sec retary of state, were made before the house committee on wajrs and means by Professor H. W. Elliott of Cleveland, O., in connection with a hearing on a resolution for the further protection of fur seal3 on the high seas. " Professor Elliott stated that while Peirce was representing the United States before The Hague tribunal in the settlement of claims growing out BXBBBBT H. P. PKTBOX. of the seizure of the sealing vessel J. Hamilton Lewis, by the Russian gov ernment, on the charge of piracy, he also represented the owners of the vessel and even instituted action in the United States district court for the District of Columbia, to insure the payment of his fee out of the money awarded to the vessel owners. Representatives Champ Clark and John Sharp Williams questioned El liott carefully about the charge, and said that it reflected so seriously on the administration that it must be looked into carefully. The chief purpose of Professor El liott in appearing before the commit tee, he explained, was to have the United States annul the lease of the sealing privileges on the Priboloff islands, granted to the North American Commercial company. He stated to the committee that officers of the company perjured themselves when they obtained the lease, as they swore they were not engaged in pelagic sealing. In spite of this oath, he says, they equipped the J. Hamilton Lewis, in command of Captain Alexander McClain, which Elliott alleges was rightfully seized by the Russian government in 1901, and Elliott made the statement that Peirce's activity in collecting a fee from the vessel's owners was in 1903.

GERMAN GLEANINGS. In order to replace a lost thumb a young man in Berlin has had a great toe amputated and grafted on the stump. The operation has proved successful. 1 Queen Wilhelmina recently shipped some cows from Holland for her busband's estate In Mecklenburg-Schwer-in. But they were stopped at the German frontier under the law forbidding the importation of foreign cattle. This dramatic criticism appeared In the Mainzer Neueste Nachrichten: "The Maid of Orleans was born in the village of Domremy Jan. 6, 1412. On May 30, 1431, she was burned alive in the market place of Rouen, and on Oct. 23, 1906. she was buried in the theater of Mayence. Requiescat in pace." The smokeless condition in Berlin is ascribed to the preponderant use of smokeless fuel in the form of coke and briquets, the skillful, scientific construction of boiler furnaces and chimneys and finally to the high standard of skill taught and enforced among firemen who stoke furnaces with coal for steam and other purposes. v If you hsve good "opportun ity eyesight" you will find some things in the "want ads today which most oeople will overlook.

ENOUGH SAID. Bow Bern Tillman Wan Identified by a Money Order Clerk. Senator Tillman tells a story on himself as to how he was Identified by a postofflce money order clerk when he first arrived at the Capital City. After being in the city a few days he dropped In at the postofijee to cash a money order. "Do you know any one here who could identify you?" asked the clerk. "Well, no." the senator answered. "Is that uecessary? I am Ben Tillman of South Carolina." The clerk smiled, then asked the senator if he didn't have some letters or papers that would make him known to the postofilce authorities. The senator had put on a new suit that morning and had neglected to transfer his letters, but he had his pocketbook witli him. Digging down In his trousers pocket, he drew forth his wallet and proceeded to search for an article of Identification, but could find nothing but a small photograph of himself. "This will do, I suppose. he said, handing it to the money order clerk. "Why. sure! That's you. all right, remarked the man behind the counter, handing over the cash. Llpplncotfs Magazine. Murder to Order. Several years ago an affray in a western mining town resulted in murder, but Senator Thurston of Nebraska, believing the man who was accused to have had an Innocent Intention, took up his case and had the punishment lightened. Six months afterward a man. armed to the teeth, appeared in the senator's office. 'Are you Squire Thurston?" he roared. "Yes," said the senator. "And are you the fellow that helped Jacs Hurley at court?" The senator, thinking bis time had come, again answered, "Yes." "Well," said the man with the guns and bowle knives, "I'm Hurley's pardner, an I've come to pay you. I haven't any money, but I'm a man of honor. Anybody In town you don't like?" The senator assured him there was not, but the man looked incredulous and said: "Put on your hat, squire, an take a walk down the street with me.
