Tho defense failed to exclude her
testimony to tho offect that Mrs. Bo
attlo seemed sad and had frequent
crying spells. She added that her
daughter did not tell her tho cause, of
her sorrow.
Mrs. Owen testified almost lnaudl-
bly that her daughter showed her

ordeal was so distressing that the
gray-haired matron broke down and
wept.

"How could you bo so cruel as to kill

Mrs. Owen was not shaken on

"Beulah was 13 then," said Mrs.
lVmford, "and tboy continued to
gether until wo sent bor to school. I

Henrietta Pitman, a friend of
Botilnb Binford, testified this nftor
noit about oBnUio's intimacy with
tho girl.
Paul Bonttie, who confessed to
having purchased tho fatal shotgun
for bis cousin, took tho stnnd lato
this afternoon.
Finding Mcdford's water supply Jn
splendid condition and well pleased
with what they found on tittle Butte
creek and at Fish Lake, the source of
tho supply, tho members of the Med
ford school board, accompanied by J.
E. Watt, chairman of the water com
mittee of tho city council, and Dr. E.
Barton PIckel. member of the state
board of health, returned from an
Inspection tour of th ewater system
late Sunday night after going to tho
source of spuply.
Few Changes Recommended.
The school board took the trio in
order to determine for themselves the
condition of tho supply of water In-
tno schools or tho city and aro very
well pleased.. One or two changes
will be recommended by Mr. Watt to
tho city council, which will remew
the small defects which exist.
According to members of the Dartv
mak-ng the trip, they found the water
supply In far better condition than
they anticipated. Dr. PIcVoi hnA lit-
TT6 fault to find wfth the aupplr and
took samples of the water at the In
take of the gravity pipeline on Little
Butte creek and at the lake In order
to determine exactly the state of the
water. The water In the lako is i-tnir
and seems to be excellent.
"I shall recommend," states Mr.
Watt, "that tho council have con
structed at tho Intake a large set
tling basin which will prevent the
city from receiving water containing
sediment. This is ono fault to find
with the cystem and practically the
only ono of any consequence.
All Pleased AVith Trip.
"The courso" ot Little Butto creek
through which tho supply runs for a
distance of 12 miles seems remarka
bly free of anything which would tend
to contamlnato tho water supply. The
water In the stream seems to be clear
and looks remarkably refreshing and
inviting. I feel that wo havo a splen
did water supply."
Other members of tho nortv ex
pressed themselves as well pleased
with what they found on the trlD.

Prior to the arrival of the heads of.

Kruttschnitt were several heads of

Kruttschnitt Talks.
"The controversy between the Har

my visit to San Francisco at this

now ample provision for taking care
of. The general managers of the
companies are competent to handle
the situation and they aro now and
always have been willing to confer
with the heads of the shops craftH
within their jurisdiction. I did not
deny n henrjng to Mr. Kline and Mr.
Franklin in Chicago, nor did I re

"During my stay here I will natur

STRIKE CRISIS SEIZED TO CREATE
PANIC AND INFLUENCE ELECTION
CHICAGO, Aug. 28. Charging
that tho railroads, by their refusal
to accord their employes tho right to
organlzo systom federations, aro seek
ing to reduce tho Intter to a condi
tion ot industrial slavery, President
J. W. Kllno of tho International black
smiths' union, loader ot tho big rail
way strlko movement, declared that
tho crisis had boon Belzed by tho fi
nanciers ns an Important oxcuso to
"pluugo tho country Into tho custo
mary pro-oloctlou panic In order to
coerce tho masses Into electing tho
presidential candldato who can bo ro
lled on to servo tho tnonoy Interests."
"That olomont of tho press which Is
tho recognlzod organ of tho big bus
iness tends to load tho publlo to bo
llovo that tho sorlous conditions ex
isting on tho Harrlmnn lines woro
brought about by tho federations ot
tho various mechnnlcnl crattu without
notice, and so suddeuly that tho man-
agors woro given no timo to consider
thorn. This Is an error. A conven
tion of tho committees ot tho llnca
was held in Salt Lako City. Tho cora
mittoo requested tho railroad mana
gers to grant thorn a Joint conference.
Tho requests wero Bystomatlcally re-
tuseu.
"Almost throo months havo olapsod,
Tho managers cannot say thoy havo
