Effort to Kill and Mangle Hun

Fuse Burns Out.
FIRE CLOSE TO 10WDER
Smoke Blackens Contents of Can.
Glendalc People Startled by Sen
sational Discovery lif Manager
of the Opera - House.
GLEXDAt,E. Or., June 3. (Special.)
A most dastardly attempt at wholesale
murder was revealed here today when
31. G. Sonnemann, merchant and owner
of the Opcrahouse, found an infernal ma
chine at his new auditorium.
The Infernal machine was placed in the
vestibule of the operaliouse on the night
of March 7. whilo the home talent play.
"The Blue and the Gray." was in pro
press. The play had been well adver
tised and the wholo town turned oui 10
eee it, standing room being at a prem
ium. When the play was over. Mr. Sonne
mann, upon opening the door for the
crowd to tile out, noticed a Runny sack
containing a can about the size of a five
callon oil can. and supposing that It was
a can of oil that some one had forgotten,
he placed it to one side.
The next morning the can was still
there, and he put it away until somebody
tsliould claim it. Nobody from that day
to this claimed the can and his sus
picion being aroused, he opened the can
today and found it to contain not oil, but
'24 sticks of No. 2 Hercules dynamite,
which had failed to explode onaccount of
a defective splicing of the fuse; six feet
from tho cap.
About 40 feet of fuse had burned and
the interior of tho can and part of the
contents had been thoroughly blackened.
If the charge had been exploded, as in
tended, there is littlo hope that anybody
In the operahouse would have escaped
death or serious Injury.
No clue to the perpetrators .of the
vicious attempt has so far been discoverel
but a subscription list is being passed
throughout the district and everybody is
subscribing freely to offer a liberal re
ward for his capture and conviction.
CONTEST PIONEER'S WILL
SUIT FILED BY ITEIRS OF IjATE
V. II. jjALDWELL.
Hon, a Portland Attorney, Accused of
Using Undue Influence to Se
cure Father's Signature.
ALBANY, Or.. June 3. (Special.) A
contest was instituted in the Probate
Court here today to break the will of the
late V. II. Caldwell, a Linn County pio
neer, who dird April S, leaving an estate
valued at $75,000. George W. Caldwell, a
Portland attorney, a son and one ot
the chief beneficiaries of the deceased, Is
charged with writing the will and1 using
undue influence and over-persuasion to
induce his father to sign it. The objec
tions were signed by Almeda Caldwell,
youngest daughter of the deceased, and
who, in spite of the fact that she is an
invalid, was bequeathed only $T00.
Caldwell left 14 children, and seven of
them are bequeathed only $300 each. Be
quests of from $1000 to $1500 each are left
the other seven children, who are also
to share equally in the estate not specifi
cally bequeathed. George TV. Caldwell
and "William Caldwell are named execu
tors without bond, and are made trustees
without bond of $10,000 to be eriven to
charity, their decision in its disposition
to be absolute.
It is claimed in the objections that
Caldwell was 77 years of age when he
signed the will last November, and was
unable to roafl it or understand its pro
visions." It is alleged that he stated many
times after the will was signed that he
had made no will, and some of the heirs
assert that he never knew that he had
signed a will.
Kver since the will was filed for pro
bate, on May 8, the matter has aroused
great interest in this city, and the con
test proceedings are attracting consid
erable attention.
NEW ASSISTANT TO TAFT
fk;horicld Appointed to Xcw Office
to Avoid Snarls.
WASHINGTON. June 3. John C. Scho
fieid was todny appointed assistant and
chief clerk of the War Department to
take effect July 1, next. The appoint
ment was made by Secretary Taft after
consultation with President Roosevelt.
Mr. Schofield has for some time been
chief clerk of tho War Department.
The new title adding the word "as
sistant" created by Congress is inter
preted as adding an additional Secretary
of War and relieves a situation which
lias been found very embarasslng when
ever, in the absence of both the Secretary
and Assistant Secretary of War, it was
necessary for any officer in the depart
ment to act for the Secretary. In such
a case, should the officer detailed! as
chief of staff be ranked by some other
officer, a snarl in the final approval of
orders might easily be the consequence.

ATTORNEY SCORES BENSON
ACCUSES HIM OF WILFULLY
CONCEALING EVIDENCE.
Land-Fraud Defendant Explains Re
fusal to Testify Regarding
Brihery Charges.
WASHINGTON. June 3. District At
torney Baker today in the Hyde-Benson-Dimond-Schnekler
land-fraud cases open
ly charged Benson with wilfully conceal
ing testimony which should have been
given in answer to questions asked by
the prosecution. The District Attorney
asked Benson whether he had been ad
vised by counsel not to answer any ques
tion in relation to the alleged bribery of
Harlan and Valk, clerks In the General
Land Office. Benson replied that he had
received no such advice. He gave as his
reason tor refusing to answer that a
charge of bribery was pending against
him and he did not wish to incriminate
himself. The witness was asked concern
ing his relations with Henry P. Dlmond,
and how it was possible for him to con
duct business with Dimond as attorney
when he had testified that Dimond was
employed by Hyde as counsel under the
partnership agreement. The District At
torney closely questioned Benson as to
the time Dimond was first employed by
him, and thch witness severely taxed his
memory to make a lucid explanation of
happenings while Dimond was acting in
a dual capacity while agent for Hyde
and Benson,
An incident growing out of Benson's
refusal yesterday to testify to certain
vital points alter being instructed by the
Court to do so, was Judge ' Campbell's
statement to the Court today that he
had withdrawn as one of the advisors
of Benson as one of the legal consulting
authorities, and that whatever Benson
said should not incriminate any one in
the case. Consequently Benson was more
free in his responses to questions on
cross-examination on the previous day,
although little of a startling character
was developed.

at a convention in this "state, two con
ventions were held this afternoon in the

vention at Denver is certain. At one
time this afternoon physical encounters
seemed imminent and once it looked as
if there might be bloodshed. The anti

one from eaech judicial district and five
from the state at large.
The fight arose over the election of a
temporary chairman.
The Duboisites nominated Glen Mc
Kinley, and the oppos...on put up K. I.
Perky The vote gave McKinley 148
votes and Perky 132. It was claimed
that the state committee had admitted
delegates favorable to Dubois to vote
and barred contestees that leaned
toward the opposition.
When the threats, profanity and
other riotous demonstrations subsided.
Perky called upon the opponents of Du
bois to gather around him. He led
them to another part of the hall and
organized his convention. The Perky
delegates to Denver are W. B. Mc
Farland, George IS. Erb, J. T. Ponce,
C. II. Lamberton, D. T. Evans. J. D.

the Mormon question into politics was
adopted.
The Dubois convention chose as dele
gates to Denver Fred T. Dubois, Henry
Heltfield, Z. H. ' Jackson, Cary L. Day,

PAYS WITH HIS LIFE
Teller Commits Suicide When
Theft Revealed.
PROMOTION HIS DOWNFALL
After Stealing for Five Years as lie
ceiving Teller, Muir Is Called to
Account, Confesses and
Shoots Himself.
NEW YORK, June 3. On being
questioned by the bank's officers to
day about an apparent discrepancy in
his accounts, Charles T. Muir, paying
teller of the Forty-second street
branch of the Corn Exchange Bank,
asked to be excused until he coultl ob
tain a deposit ticket to explain the
matter, went to the basement and. af
ter writing a brief confession that his
accounts were short, shot himself in
the head. He, died within an hour at
the hospital.
Vice-President Frew, of the Corn
Exchange Bank, said tonight that
Muir's shortage was $9068. '
Muir was one of the bank's most
trusted employes and it was while he
was receiving teller that he conducted
his peculations. In his confession he
said that the embezzlements had been
going on for five years, and that he
succeeded in covering his shortage by
substituting new deposits for old.
Three days ago he was made paying
teller of the bank and an examination
of his accounts was begun, a suspicion
having been aroused that all was not
right. In the capacity of paying teller
he was no longer in a position to con
ceal his shortage, and he momentarily
faced discovery of it- Mr. Frew said
that the shortage was fully covered
by a surety bond.

Pain is always a symptom of Injury.'
Griping means that the physic is harsh

You injure the bowels when you seek

The bowel lining like the skin be

The hardened lining retards the natural

And the calloused bowels demand a

Such physic is wrong. It is wicked.

For breakfast heat the Biscuit in oven,
