fnedlctrfes to get relief from dyspepsia,
ndlgestioa and heartburn, but without

ance that they never dreamed would be
their undoing.
The girl chose Bneed and married
him, : The pathways of Mrs. Bneed and
young Al Boyee parted. They met again
In Amarlllo In the spring of 1311 when
Mrs. Bneed was stricken with fever.
Boycs visited his girl friend of college
days."'' .:
One day. Bneed. testified at his first
trial here, the husband cams home to
find Boyce holding Mrs. Bneed's hand.
Later, she confessed her love for Boyce,
told her husband she would surrender
their two, little girls and. she would go
to South America with Boyce. , .
. Eneed brought her to Fort Worth, as
a patient In the Arlington Heights san
itarium. That was October 17, 1911. On
November 8, Mrs. Sneed disappeared.
She and Boyce were traced to Winnipeg,
Canada, and Boyce was arrested on the
strengtbAof-aa-lndlctment herercharg-

On January 1$. .U12, Sneed visited
Fort Worth again to replace his wife in
the sanitarium. Captain Al a. Boyce
Br. had came to Fort Worth-that same
day tp have the Indictment against his
son quashed.
, Bneed and the elder Boyce met In the
lobby of the Metropolitan hotel. Sneed
killed Boyce. He aaid B,pyee had con
spired to rob him of his wife.
Captain Boyce, though, had not
come to Fort Worth In vain. Before
he, was killed, he had obtained the
dismissal of the Indictment against his
son. Four days later, Sneed was in
dicted for the killing of the elder
Boyce. f
Bneed's first . trial began Jan. zs.
Two days later, Edward-Throckmorton,
son of a former governor; star wit
ness for the prosecution, died mys.
teriously. He said on Ms deathbed
that he had been drugged.
City Detective Ben U. Bell was go
ing home on a Polytecbnlo car the
night of Feb. 20. Bylvestus S. Morris,
a real estate man, was commenting on
the Sneed case. Bell, according to wit
nesses. resented hie comments On Mrs.
Sneed and asked him to stop. Morris
resented the Interference and they
clashed. Morris was shot to death. Bell
Is under Indictment for murder.
Bneed's rather Killed.
On March f, one week after the Sneed
Jury had been discharged, ther
was a double tragedy at Georgetown
that added to ' the swiftly Increasing
list of violent deaths in the Sneed
Boyce circle. It was Incidental, but
it was grief; It was perhaps a desper

Captain J. T. Sneed, father of John
Beal , Bneed, was shot to death at
Georgetown, by B. C. Milliard, a for
mer employe, who then -turned the
weapon on himself and died a aulclde.
Sneed went . into seclusion.' ' The
Boyces were not heard from. No one

President Tart on the foreign relations
of the United States was read In both
bouses of congress today. : Following
his established departure from , the
us jal all embracing and , cumbersome
messages of former occupants of the
White House, this' communication was
comparatively short and was limited to
the discussion' of one subject ,
. The . president stated that , the rela
tions of the United States with all for
eign powers were at present maintained
on a basis Of "peacei - harmony and
friendship' '. lie pleaded, however, for
n extension of the dlplomatlo system,
stating that' congress should - fully
realise the conditions which obtain in
tha world as we stand on the threshold
of our middle ago as a nation."
Many Important suggestions ' were
made to congress- n the president's
message. Chief among these was his
espousal Of a more elsstlo tariff meas

not too strongly reoommend" this pro

of congress. - In Hhls recommendation
the president said: ', 1 "'
"Nations no longer accord equal tar
iff treatment to all other nations, Irre
spective of the treatment from -them
received, and such a flexible power as
a graduated scale of duties In the hands
of the exocutlve would serve to mod

racors "Dollar Diplomacy."-
Most of the president's nussage was
dovoted to the existing relations between
the United States and her sister re
publics ,f, North and South .America,
in this connection the president dwelt
upon his Pit theme of dollar diplomacy,
reiterating his oft repeated statement
that this means of invading the smaller
autonomies Cf the Americas not only
worked great benefit to both the Amer
ican bankers Interested and the repub
lics receiving the loan, but strengthened
the position- of - the United States
through the elimination of large for
eign loans, "which might cause an inter
national 1 discussion of ths Monroe doc
trine.' v--;;.; v,Xr.z"; '?.v.v
As a direct slap at the enemies of
the loan convention In the United States
senote, the president stated It was bis
onlnlon that the terrible' loss of life In
Nicaragua could have been prevented had
the department of state been permitted,
through the approval of a loan, conven
tion by the senate, to carry out Us
policy of encouraging financial aid 1 to

Special mention is made of the ne

enough to oover the possible necessity
of dealing with special cases by ths
application cf - special laws. ' In , this
connection the ohlef executive expressed
the utmost good will of this nation for
