Lynch of Philadelphia produced letters, circulars and newspapers sent to him by the promoters. These stated that the mine was in operatioM and that ore was being shipped in paying quantities. Lynch said he bought 1,100 shares of stock on representations made in the advertising matter.

J. H. Deaner of Saginaw, testifed he had bought stock on installment plan, paying two dollars a month. When District Attorney Van Valken-burg offered as evidence a printed circular describing the mining property, Judge Chester Krum, leading counsel for the promoters, objected, saying it was not competent because it was the stock of the mine that -was at issue. "It is the value of the stock that is being questioned and not the value Of the property," Judge Krum said.

"The purchasers were solicit ed to buy stock; not: to buy the mine. The orders for "stock Jwere. filled according to agreement. There is A speculative element in buying mining If there is a. bright prospect' persons are willing to pay well fo ra chance to have a large vr "Your distinctions' are too refined," Judge Philips replied r.i overruling the objection.

HAINS GUILTY OF MANSLAUGHTER (Continued from Page 1. column 4.) to roam about the country In an automobile and go right to the verge of the scene of the homicide, which is clearly against the law. We will have affidavits to prove that such is the case and also that the Jurors were permitted to leave the jurisdiction of the county and have been on government property at Fort Totten, all of which will be urged as a ground for setting aside the verdict." The conviction after the jury had been out less than three hours came as a surprise.

It had expected that a verdict of acquittal on the groirnd of insanity or a disagreement would result. No one was more surprised than District Attorney De Witt, who said all he could hope for was a disagreement. Unlike the scenes attending the trial of Thornton Hains. the defendant's brother, who was acquitted of complilcty in the same crime, there was no demonstration In court when the verdict was rendered. Captain Halns stood up and faced the jury, his shoulders thrown back In military fashion, while Foreman Sundling recited the verdict.

As he heard the decision of the jurors. Hains's face was as white as chalk. He stood for a few moments motionless, staring at the Jury after he heard the verdict. Then of his lawyers touched him and he quietly sat down. MAINS LITTLE AFFECTED.

A few moments later, apparently little affected by the verdict, he walked from the court room with a steady stride be tween his two lawyers and was taken back to the Queens county Jail.

The captain's mother was not in court, having returned to New York early In the afternoon.

This precaution was taken both because of uncertainty of duration of the Jury's deliberations and to shield her from the shock. General Hafns, however; quickly communicated the vedict to her over the telephone. After the Jury was discharged, Juror William Craft said four ballots were taken. On the first three ballots, six voted for murder in the first degree and six for acquittal on the ground of Insanity. On the fourth ballot the compromise of manslaughter in the first degree was reached.

Little consideration was given to the expert testimony. Juror Craft said. They believed that Mrs. Claudia Hans, the defendants wife, had made a con- fession to her husband of Improper rela tlons with Annis and that Annls deserved his fate, but none of them would consider the unwriten law and therefore the manslaughter verdict resulted. Mrs.

was not In court today. TO SHELVE CONEY-MORGAN CONTEST (Continued from Page 1. column 3.) W. Brinkerhoff, of Ottawa, extended welcome and A. W.

WRIGHT BROTHERS BACK TO AMERICA (Continued from Page 1, column 5.) from the Wright aeroplane at Rome on Thursday last, was manifested by the Wright brothers on reaching the quarantine station. After satisfying themselves as to the extent of the lieutenant's injuries, the brothers said they would go as soon as possible to their home in Dayton. where the aero planes intended tor the use of the government service will be completed. From Dayton they said they intended to proceed to Washington to test the aeroplanes under the direction of government representatives.

The Wright brothers united in saying they had no intention of making secret experiments. Orvllle Wright said that although the injuries he sustained in his accident at Ft. Myer were still bothering him, he expected to manipulate the Wright aeroplane in the Ft Myer tests. The time limit for the tests there was June 28, and the aeroplane would be of the same type as the regulation Wright machine used abroad, he said. As to the future of the aeroplane Mr.

Wright said: "We have carried two passengers on some of our trips and the machine could easily be developed to sustain the weight of several more persons. But I do not believe the aeroplane will ever be a regular passenger carrier, as an ocean liner or a railway train. Its province will be more in the nature of a special conveyance of a few people." As to the efficacy of the aeroplane in war, Mr. Wright declared military experts had told him that the machine and its operator would be safe from Injury by bullets at the height of 1,000 feet. As the aeroplane could easily ascend much higher, he considered that this fact settled the ouestlon of its practicability in military operations.

REFUSE TO CONCUR IN AMENDMENTS Jefferson City, May 11. Without debate and by a viva voce vote the Missouri House today refused to concur in the Senate amendments to the state wide prohibition resolution and sent it back to the upper House, asking that body to recede. As the Senate probably will decline to give up its changes in the measure, a conference committee will be appointed. The Senate amendments to the resolution which provides for a popular vote on a constitutional' amendment, establishing prohibition, were two. The first erased the House provision that prohibition, if adopted, would not became effective until 1913.

The second was a tax rider, increasing the lawful rate for all taxing bodies one hundred per cent over the present rate. TO RETURN FLAGS CAPTURED IN WAR Cincinnati, May 11.

It Is expected that the National Editorial association of the United States will hold its annual meeting In Vancouver this year some time In July. The Canadian government has invited the officers of the association to meet In Canada and Vancouver has suggested. aia as grounds for the ruing: of the writ of habeas corpus cited the fact that the jury was short eight men and that he should have been allowed a stay of execution pending his appeal. Th Supreme court simply denied the writ and unless further action is taken Lin-derholm will remain in the hospital. He lived at LJndsborg and has been in the asylum only about a week.

He is a well educated Swede and his trouble is the outgrowth of a fight in the Swedish Lutheran church, which has lasted for over seventeen years and which began with a love affair. HOW MUCH GROCERIES WHISKY WILL BUY Many of the trade papers last month published an item headed "Promoting Temperance and Trade," being an advertising card made into a blotter, signed by a dozen grocery firms of Delaware, showing what a man who drinks three glasses of whisky per day for one year and pays 10 ceMts per drink, could receive for the same amount of money at any of the firms named. The item In question has been widely read and commented upon as the showing was remarkable, showing how the dally dropping of three dimes per day accumulated in a respectable sum of $110 at the end of the year. Now comes a traveling salesman of a westerM grocery firm who has figured out the same proposition from a far west standpoint, with prices of drinks 15 cents instead of 10 cents, and at the prevailing prices of groceries further west. Three drinks per day, for 365 days, at 37 cents per day, total $136.87.

column 1.) gaged in a swatfest and galloped around the circuit fifteen times for the especial benefit of the visitors. The Elks en-Joyed the game Immensely, In fact. It was up to them to do so, for the managers of the opposing teams went to the trouble of rearranging the Western League schedule in order that the game might be played here. There was a big crowd at the game, and Cooley and Pa, who are not playing for pleasure altogether, are pleased. The game resulted 8 to 7, in Topeka's favor.

After the game the delegates and other visitors reassembled at the Elks' club and made merry until 8 o'clock, when they swooped down In the Majestic theater, which had been previously bought out by the boys of 204. The house was completely filled, the show was extraordinary, and this proved to be one of the biggest features of the program. After the performance, there was a social. All women and outsiders were excluded and the fraternity formed a merry family circle and swapped yarns. Members of visiting theatrical troupes were there to fill up the gaps In the program and from 11 o'clock until time to go home Jollity reigned.

It was a Joyous windup to a strenuous day. ANOTHER DAY OF PLEASURE. Today the Elks will have just as much fun as they did on the opening day. During the morning hours there will be a business session, at which A. S.

Buzzi of Emporia will be elected president and other matters will be given due attention. The crowning feature of the entire program win be the big parade at 4 o'clock this afternoon. At 6 o'clock this evening the visitors will board special cars for Vinewood park, where a family picnic will be held. By 7 o'clock last night nearly 900 visitors had arrived, and more are expected today, swelling the attendance to more than a thousand. Besides the Kansas Elks, brothers from all parts of the country who are makr.ig this territory have dropped in to join in the merriment.

Wita these there are probably 1,200 strangers in town. Delegates have arrived here from all parts of the state, coming in delegations, groups, squads and individually. Iola and Ottawa sent the first delegations to arrive in the city and they were met at the station with a band. Next came the Emporia contingent, shortly after 11 o'clock. The delegation came about 100 strong.

Including a fine band. Chanute rolled In last evening with Its band, "and about the same time a large crowd came from Independence. Hutchinson arrived during the early hours of the mornfng. Nearly every train Into the city during the day brought visiting Elks and members of their families, and they were all heartily received at the station. Several automobiles were on hand at all times to escort the women visitors to the hotels.

With the big convention only half over RAW AND SCALY Itched and Burned Terribly Arms Affected, Too Could Not Move Thumbs Without Flesh Cracking Sleep and Work Often ImpossibleWas Fairly Worn Out. CUTICURA SOON CURED HIS FEARFUL ECZEMA "About a year ago an itching humor began to appear around the back of my hand. It started in to spread, and pretty soon it covered both my hands and got up over my wrists and even up to the elbows. The itching and burning were terrible. My hands got all scaly and when I scratched, as I was doing a good part of the time, the surface would-be covered with blisters and then get raw.

The eczema got so bad in around the pit of my thumbs that I could not move the thumbs without deep cracks appearing. I went to my doctor, but his medicine-could only stop the itching and did not seem to heal my hands up at all. At night I suffered so fearful iy that I could not sleep, often lying awake until well toward morning, then waking up still tired. I am a chef and steward by trade and I had to give up my place, as my hands were so terrible to look at that they did not like to hare me around about the food. I could not bear to touch them with water, but when I positively had to get my hands clean I would rub them with oil.

"This sort of business went on for three months and I kept trying zino and tar ointments and such remedies with no particular benefit. I did not know what to do, for I was fairly worn out. For a long time several friends kept asking me why I didn't use Cuti-cura and at last I thought I would. First I got the Cuticura Soap, then Cuticura Ointment and at last Cuticura Resolvent. I put the Cuticura Ointment on at night, covering my hands with light cotton gloves.

In the morning the inside of the gloves would be lined with scales, sometimes half as long as your finger, leaving nice healed places where the scales had been. In a month I was cured and have kept so now for nine months. My hands and arms are perfectly clear of all traces of eczema and I think I am well rid of it. Walter H. Cox, 16 Somerset Boston, Mass.

GIRL USES SHEET IN CLIMB TO LIBERTY Wichita. May 11. With the sheet of her bed torn into shreds and tied into a rope and hung out of a window, Blanch Brown made her escape from the rooms of Mrs.

She had been brought back from Amar-lllo, Texas, where she had gone as a member of a theatrical and was being held In the rooms until the application for her admittance to the Girls' Jn-dustrial school at Belolt had been approved by the board of control and returned. James Mercer, a member of the police force had been watching the girls at night, and Mrs. Mason has been watching her days.

Many Questions Must Be 7 Answered. The first of month the new fire es- i i cape taw, not me one applying 10 nuieio, will become effective.

Much has been said about the hotel fire escape law, but little about another passed by the last Legislature and in some respects the sec- ond lav is the more important. It pro vides that all buildings three or more stories In height and used for public purposes, except hotels, shall be equipped with metallic ladders or fire escapes and that in case the building contains more than thirty people daily it shall be equipped with such fire escapes and ladders evett though it be only two stories in height. The hotel fire escape law was turned Alt AW Ctita Da A rxt UaoltV ttvp ATI. forcement. That applying to all other buildings depends for its enforcement upon the state factory inspector, who is the state labor commissioner, V.

L. A. Johnson. All of the fire marshals and fire chiefs In the state are made-responsible to him under the new law. Mr.

says he has been in correspondence with the fire, marshals In cities of the first and second classes and that they show a desire to enforce the- new- law. He further says that he intends that it shall be enforced to the letter. "The new law is going to place a great deal more work on the shoulders of the fire chief," Bald Mr. Johnson yesterday, "and I would recommend to the city councils that they give that official some ad ditional help. Under the new law he is required to make four inspections each year of every public building In his dls- I inci coming unuer me acu ine jaw la broad enough that a responsible inspector could be made to do this work and fArtrtrt trt tVitt flro Tho Investiga tions will have to be made.

I am going to see to that and I only wish there was some way of taking some of the additional work off the hands of the already hard-worked fire marshals." The new law applies to all used in whole or in part for public pur- poses, office buildings, school bouses Churches, theaters, public halls, lyceums and other such buildings three or more stories 1 in height. In buildings where there are more than thirty peolple employed, the provisions of the new law wlll aDDlv. Under the new law It will be the duty of the chief of the fire department to visit all of the building provided for In the act every three months ana carefully inspect them. If he discovers something that Is not in compliance with the law he is instructed to report the fact at once to the county attorney and cause a formal complaint to be filed against the owner, renter or occupant of the building. Twice each year the fire chief must make a voluminous report to the state factory inspector.

These reports must be made in April September of each year. State Factory Inspector L. A. Johnson Is now preparing the blanks which will be sent out to the fire chiefs. These blanks and the questions on them are so drawn that the chief must have made the inspection required of him by law before he can make his report.

His report will become a matter of record and any misrepresentation Is likely to cause him serious trouble in case of any accident resulting from his negligence. The chief. In his report, must give the date of the first inspection made during the year, the date of the second inspection, the name of the building inspected, the 'number and the street, the number of stories in the building, the purpose for which the building is used, the number of persons employed In or occupying the building above the second floor, the manner in which the doors open, whether or not there are fire extinguishers on each floor and whether they are in good order, whether there are notices posted lvi each room and hall, number of continuous stairways from the top to the bottom floor, the number of stairways inside ana out, the number of fire escapes and the kind, the number of windows reached by fire escapes, the recommendations issued by the fire marshal up to date, whether or not the recommendations have been complied with, the date of the prosecu-tlou and results. The blank winds up with this question, which appears to be the key to the whole situation: VDo you approve the number and the locations, dimensions and condition of each fire escape and stairway as comply, in with the law?" One of the provisions of the new law Is that every outside door in all buildings comf.ng under the provisions of the act must open out from the building and not In. This Is to prevent a jam at the exit of the building In case of fire.

It Is worthy of note that the doors of the Stale House all open Inside. Of course, the State House is so roomy and has so many outlets that there would be little danger in case of fire, but it is one of the buildings of the state which will violate the View law unless some change Is made. The new law becomes effective the last Of this month. LliERHOLM MUST STAY III MIME ASYLUM Supreme Court Refuses Him a Habeas Corpus Writ. The application of Justus B.
