gram. President Thomas J. Mickey Is
very likely to lose his official scalp here
today, or at least action Is very probabl
that will result In separating him from hi
pay os president of tho Western league.
President Mickey and George Tebeau
owner of tho Kansas City franchise, are
here, but refuso to talk to anyone but owner
W. T. Van Drunt and owner Ilourke of the
Oma n franchise and the repretentatlves of
thrco' other franchises. Mr. Van Jlrunt as
the spokesman for the other magnates vig
orously urged Mr. Mickey to at once drop
his greater league plans or at onco vacate
the presidency. Mr. Van Ilrunt told hlra
that tho Western league would continue
regardless of whether Mr. Mickey was a
salaried ofllcur with It or not. Ooorgo
Tebeau, who Is the confidant of Mr. Mickey,
registered under An assumed name, when he
arrived last night. Mr. Tebeau told Mr.
Van Irrunt that most of the Western league
towns could drop Into a minor league nnd
make Just as much money ns they have ever
made. Mis nigument was pronounced too
rllly for consideration by tho other mag
nates of the Western league, Tebeau has
been Invited to eliminate himself and the
president from the league and give some
' other good city opportunity to get In.

Tho revolt In the Western Base nail

practically reached today between Presi
dent Mickey, V. T. Van tlrunt and Oeorge
TeDeau. President Mickey will resign nt
the annual meeting to be held next week
ejthcr In this city. Kansas City or Omaha,
nnd his sucenssor will be elected. V. T. Van
Ilrunt, owner of tho St. Joseph franchise,
will glvo up the franchise, since St. Joseph
Is to bo played In the minor league. He
said today that he would not take a step
backward.
At the ennferenfp held hv the three men
today It was understood that Tebeau Is to
go with tho Denver tenm. Ho said ho
would sign a pledgo not to employ a Kan.
Ban City player. President Hlckey gavo
out the following signed statement, after
the conferenco with Vnn Brunt:
IllrUcjV .Sliitriiirnt.
I "After tho close of tho season of 1901
thero was a general demand by the base
ball pcoplo of certain cities without a club
for mo to take tho Initiative in forming a
league that would be n good business propo
sltlon for tho Individual cities as well as a
chanco to better nnd advance my own con
dition, which is ccrtslnly human nnd n
right that I hnve nnd which no ono can
criticise. With that end In view. I started
to work, nnd the result was that a circuit
has been formed comprising Minneapolis,
St. Paul. Kansas City nnd Omnha In the
west, nnd Milwaukee, Indianapolis, Colum
bus and Toledo In the east. While we aro
already organized. I have called another
meeting for Novembor 29, nt which time wc
will close up some minor details. Thla new
orgnnlzntlon must not be confused with the
Western league, ns It Is a distinct nrganlz.r
tlon entirely. Tho meeting of the Western
league will be held noxt week, at which
time the business of last season will be
closed up and my successor elected."
Will Orlnlnly llroluii.
President Hlckey raid he would certainly
resign ns president of tbo Western league
next week, but refused to say whtro tho
meeting will be held. As far as he knows
nnd as far ns can be learned hero today
that Is the end of the revolt.
Owner Van Bnint, who headed the revolt
snld he would not stand In tho way of Pros
ident Illnkey's advancement, but. seeing no
opportunity to gel St, .loreph Into the Inrgor
league, snld he would have nothing inoro to
do with base ball. The new Western league
ns planned now Is to comprise Denver. St
Joseph, Colorado Springs. Sioux City. lies
Moines and probably Lincoln, although the
deal has not been close 1 there. As to dis
satisfaction tmong tho other magnates In
the Western league Owner Van Brunt has
nothing to say. He. has given up nnd that
Is the end of the revolt It Is bellevod here.
LINCOLN, Nov. 2fi. (Special Telegram.'i
It will not be definitely known whether
or not Lincoln Is to get a base ball fran
chise until the Westorn leag'io magnates

Sore3 and Ulcers never become chronic
unless tho blood is in poor condition is
sluggish, weak and unable to throw off
the poisons that accumulate in it. The
system must be relieved of the unhealthy
matter through the core, and great danger
to life would follow should it heal before
the blood has been made pure and healthy
and all impurities eliminated from the sys
tem. S.S.S. begins the cure by first cleans
ing and invigorating the blood, building
up the general health and removing from
n Tim1 a CONSTANT DRAIN
3hS&. "PON THE SYSTEM.
When this has been accomplished the dis
charge gradually ceases, and the core or
ulcer heals. It is the tendency of these old
indolent sores to grow worse and worse,
and eventually to destroy the bones. Local
applications, while soothing and to some
extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the scat
of the trouble. S. S. S. does, and no matter
ihow apparently hopelew your condition,
'even though your constitution has broken
down, it will bring relief when nothing
'else can. It supplies the rich, pure blood '
'necessary to heal the sore and nourish
the debilitated, diseased body.

WASHINGTON', No. 26. The fact was
brought out In the trial of Mrs. Kola Ida
Donlne for the killing of Jamc3 Seymour
Ayres, Jr., today that ehe had made a pri
vate confession of hor part in the tragedy
on the evening after the homicide, several
days before she took the police officials Into
her conlldencr. This recital was made to
George D. Gardner, nn attorney employed
In the law division of the Interior depart
ment, who was a boarder nt the Kenmoro
hotel and usually sat at the same table at
which Mrs. Donlne took her meals.
.Mr. Oardner was on tho witness stand to
day and told hie story for the first tlmo.
lie said Mrs. Donlne had sought him out
and asked his advice ns to whether alio
should make a public statement and ho sug
gested to her tbat she should delay her
confession until the theory of ettlclde, which
was first entertained, should be fully ex
ploited. Mistreated by Ayre.
Other witnesses wero heard during the
day, several of them being men who had
taken Ayres out to neighboring saloons dur
ing the evening of May II and ono of whom
had taken him to his room after midnight,
about two hours before he met his death.
The witness who took Ayrra to his room
wns n young man named Hums, who snld
that when he left Ayres tho latter was per
fectly sober. These witnessed generally
agreed that Ayres had taken about two
glasses of beer and that he wah not under
the Influence of liquor. Durnn said that on
one occasion he had seen Ayres treat Mrs.
Ilonlno contemptuously. Ho snld she had
nursed him (Hums) when he wns HI and
had visited his room both day and night.
Other wltnowcs testified that Mrs. Donlne
had vlfllted them when HI.
Mornur Keeper TeMtlfle.
Tho first witness of the day was William
Schoenbergcr, keeper of the morgue. He
testified to having tnken charge of
Ayres' body at Iho Kenmoro ho
tel and to taking It to tho
morgue on the morning of May 1? last,
under the direction of the coroner. He had
also, ho said, been present nt thu autopsy
and had photographs showing the location
of the wounds In tho body. The films wore
introduced as evidence and exhibited to tho
Jury. Mrs. Donlne gave ono linsty look at
the pictures as they were held by one of
tho attorneys, but sho quickly turned her
head and gave them no further attention.
Sho engaged In conversation with Attorney
Fulton most of tho time while this testi
mony wns being given. The witness said
thero were powder marks on tho brenst
and arm wounds, but none on tho thigh
wound. Under the arm there was a burn
Describing the condition of the corpse
when he found It, Mr. Schoenbergcr said tho
arms were drawn up In front of the face
"In order that the stenographer may de
scribe, the posture-," said Mr. Gould, "I sup
pose there will be no objection to his not
ing that the attitude was ono of defense?"
"We do object most decidedly,'' responded
Mr. Douglass.
Tho court alleged that the description
would be Improper and It was decided (hat
he should say that the arras were placed as
If shielding the face.
On cross-examination the witness (.aid
that when he entered the room whero the
killing occurred he saw sovcral empty car
trldgo shells In the slop Jar and had also
seen more shells and cartridges on thj trunk
and on the washstand.
Gardner Tell of Conf raalnti.
The next witness was Mr. George n.
Gardner, an attorney In the Interior de
partmtnt, who, with his family, occupied
rooms under the suite occupied by the
Bonlnes, In the Kenmore hotel. Ills tcstl
mony wan new. The fact was brought out
that Mrs. Donlno had made her first con
fession to him. This confession had. tho
witness said, been made on the evening of
May 15, the day of the tragedy. He wns
followed to his room by Mrs. Honlne.
"She stated to me," ho said, "that she
knew more about tho death of Ayres than
bad been given to the public. T think she
hesitated a moment and cither my manner
or something I said Induced her to go on
and she said she wns present when it hnp
penod nnd told me that she had came to mo
because sho wanted my advice. She told rae
that on the morning of Ayres' death he
came to her rcom and -knocked on her door
and cnmnlalned of being 111 and -asked If
she could not do something for him: that
when she got Into Ayres' room ho had ns
saulted her and had a pistol In his band,
and in tho scuffle which ensued he wn
killed."
"Did she describe tho struggle that took
place?" asked the district attorney.
Tho witness stated that sho said nothing
more than that when the struggle followed
the assault the pistol wns fired. Thn wit
ness stated that she did not tell him In
whose hands the pistol was. but. later cor
rected himself hy saying that ho believed
she said the weapon wan In Ayres' hands
.yrr In Liquor.
"She also told me that Ayres was under
tho Influence of liquor at the time of tho
shooting," said Mr. Gardner. The witness
also said that the woman had spoken again
to him on the noxt day, or the second day-
after the tragedy. She sat at the same ta
oie wun mm , in ma dining roopj
and she, again sought to' talk with
him concerning tho tragedy. "She aald,'
Mr. Oardner testified, "that she was feel
Ing badly and that nothing was sustaining
her except the. consciousness of hor Inno
cence. She added that she could not get It,
out and asked me It she had better destroy'
It. Dy lt' I understood her to mean that
she referred to one of hor garments, but I
did not know what. I told her to destroy
nothing, ns she had not decided upon a
public confession.
On cross-examination Mr. Gardner testl
fled that be would not exactly say Mrs.
Uonino was excited. Her manner was
tense. She bad1 asked his advice as to tho
advisability of making n public statement
and he had advised her to remain quiet
until It was determined whether the suicide
theory would bold good.
Jamca Durns, who was Ayres' Intimate
friend and who had accompanied him to
his room the night of the tragedy, was next
called. He said that on the night of the
tragedy Ayres had gone wHth him and
others to two or three saloons around the
corner, where he said Ayres had drank
sparingly. He had then, at about 12:30
o'clock, accompanied Ayres to his room
leaving him In a perfectly sober condition
The witness raid that whllo originally
Ayres and Mrs. Donlne hnd been on friendly
terms, these relations became strained and
on the occasion of the Monday dance before
the killing when sho had approached Ayres
with a carnation, he had treated her with
contempt. Mrs. Donlne told him, ho said
that she had reproved Ayres for drinking

had also taught him (the. witness), tho two
step. H also said that before starting out
with Ayres at 10:30 o'clock he, himself, hnd
had six or seven drinks but that ho wns not
intoxicated. Ho said that he hnd not spent
more than two minutes In Ayres' room when
ho accompanied hlni up and that he had hnd
no confidential conversation with him.
"I do not know that I could have had a
confidential talk," he said. "There might
have been somo ono under the bed, but I do
not know that there was."
Durns said on the night succeeding the
tragedy he had not remained In his room
in tho hotel. Asked why he kept away, he
eald: "As Mrs. Donlno knew tbnt Jimmy
Ayres and myself were friends I did not
know but that she might think Ayres had
told me. enough to convict hrr. I did not
propose to take any chances."
"Afraid?" asked counsel for the defense.
"Yes, and the next night, too."
In reply to further questions by Mr.
Douglae, Hums snld that Mrs. Donlne had
nursed him through a serious Illness, com
ing to his room day nnd night, both alone
and with others, and also that he had told
persons since the (ragedy that he never
had heard Ayres talk as though ho had
been Intimate with Mrs. Donlne. At this
point the court took a recess for luncheon.
DouKlnx Aka Alunit the I'Utnl,
After recess, Mr. Douglas continued his
cross-examination of' Mr. Durns. Mr.
Douglas sought by his questions to show
hat Hums knew that Ayres owned a pistol,
He asked the witness If he hnd not ad
vanced tho theory In a letter to a friend
lu Mlchlgnn that Ayres had taken tho
weapon found In his room from his old
trunk. The witness said that he had writ
ten a letter expressing the opinion that
If Ayres had a pistol nt all he had tnken
It from his trunk nnd laid it nn the
dresser. lie nlso hnd expressed the opin
ion In that letter that there had been a
struggle In tho room.
Michael Itognii, who said he had been a
police Judge In New York, nnd who was
one of the party with young Ayres the
night of bis death, woa the next witness.
Ho said that he lived At the Kenmore. The
boys hnd, he said, naked him to "pronounco
the nlciilctory," as Ayres was to leave
the hotel the next day. He had spoken
"quite n little piece Just to Jolly Ayres."
and then the pnrty left for the snloon
around the corner, returning about 12
o'clock. Ho snld that when Ayres returned
he was perfectly sober.
Trll of n Mtilit Out
Mr. Hogan said that on one occasion Mrs.
Donlno hnd spoken o him (the witness)
when Ayres was present about giving n
cuchro party, hut Ayres had not xpoken
to her nor she to him.
Joseph C. McCabc. anntHer Inmate of the
Kenmore, testified to seeing Ayres In n
saloon nt 11 o'clock the night of the
tragedy, when he went In with the party
from tho Kenmore. At that tlmo the young
man was perfectly sober. He saw him drink
two glasses of beer.
Arthur H McCiibbln, who wns a mem
ber of the Ayres farewell party on Its
rounds nn the night of the homicide, wns
next tailed. He also said thot Ayres was
sober when he returned to the hotel about
12:30 o'clock.
John K. Downs, who occupied n room on
tho fourth floor of the Kenmore nt the
time of the tragedy, snld that ho had seen
Mrs. Donlne the morning nftcr flic killing.
She did not seem In nny way more excited
than other boarders.
James K. Ford, a fellow-clerk of Ayres at
the census office, and a friend of his who
did tot at tho time of the tragedy live at
thn Kenmore, testified to visiting Ayres'
room the morning after the killing. There
were then qur ,or five women standing
near the i.ootji ln,Uie corridor,, among them
being Mm. Bonfne. He spoke to her, es
pecially nekln'g Vcr If she had danced with
Ayres the evening before the killing, and
she had replied 'that they had danced to
gether. The next day she had expressed
her regret over Ayres' death and her as
tonlshmeut that In view of tho fart that
he had no enemies he should have been
killed. Her demeanor wns not different
from that of other women guests of tho
hotel.
On cross-examination Mr. Ford snld that
he had fltst met Mrs. Donlne while he
was a patient at a local hospital. The
court at this point adjourned for tho day.

billtles. Their mlarles range from $1,500 to
$1,800 per annum and they are required to

ion on tho protect of Lucius Bccbc & Son
of Boston, Importers, ngiilnst the decision 1
of the collector of custom nt Boston, the
decision Involving the value of the Indian
rupee In cases in which merchandise from '
foreign countries la invoiced In this country.
It was said at the appraisers' stores that'
under the decision, if It is sustained, the
government will hnve to refund larse .uui3 i
that have hern paid In duties on Indian
goods, nnd that the amount Involved Is
culmated to he .from $750,000 to 11,000.000, 1
this belli c a test case.
The Bccbc case Involves the construction
of the proviso to section 25 of the tar ff
act of Aiigiiat 33. ISO I, which provides that
the director of the mint shall quarterly es-1
tabllsb the value of foreign coin In United
States currency, according to tho pure
