"Oullty of menslaughter as charged In the
Indictment," wu the verdict rendersi by
th federal p" )""r trying the cane of
the United States again Henry Guitar,
accused of the murder of his father. Ste
phen Guitar, on the Omaha reservation the
evening of September 17, 1904.
The case haa been on trial In the Vnlted
States circuit court before Judge Carland
nine Saturday last, and waa given to the
Jury at : o'clock Tuesday evening. The
verdlot of manslaughter waa returned at
1:60.
It I probable the attorneys for Henry
Oultar may carry the case to the Vnlted
State circuit court of appeals on the
ground of Jurisdiction, a plea which 'the at
torneys strenuously fought for during the
entire trial, contending the Guitars were
not Indiana.
Both the accused and his victim were
members of the Omaha tribe of Indians,
Stephen Guitar being a halfbreed and the
son, Henry. three-ouarter blood Indian.
The murder grew out of a quarrel be
tween th two over a bottle of whisky, th
father accusing the son of taking It. A
quarrel ensued, resulting In th death of
th father at the hands of the son.
Hob's Sid of the Story.
The story, as told by -Henry Oultar, Is
that he had returned from Pender during
th early afternoon from a business trip.
His father waa already at home, having re
turned the previous Tuesday from a visit
of a month In Oklahoma. "The father had
with him a bottle of whisky and one of al
cohol. He Invited Henry Into the house to
take a drink with him. Henry took one
th alcohol bottle. Observing that his
father waa much under the Influenoo of
'Iquor and fearing trouble, Henry mounted
his own hors and rode away to a neigh
bor's house. He returned home about haf
an hour afterward and was on th point
of starting away again when his father
called for him, charging him with taking
the bottl of whisky. This Henry denied.
iut he claims he. told his father the liquor
waa sitting on the floor under a table In
.he sitting room. The elder Guitar under
took to pull him from his horm, and then,
went Into th house, Henry following him,
drink of whisky, but declined to drink from
as he claimed, to show him where th bot
tl lay under th table.
The witness went on further to state
'.hat Shephen Guitar Immediately assaulted
Iilm with a piece of hickory which was to
be used In making a pipe stem. He was
rtruck twice over the head and three times
on the arm and once on the body by his
father. H did not resist the assault. The
old man then opened the door and pulled
Henry out onto the porch and there the
fight was renewed, and then for the first
lime Henry says he struck his father twice
with hi first, knocking him down, and
kicked him In th left side twice. The
. father then got up and want back Into the
house, locking the door afterward, and
Henry, fearing he had gone In after a gun,
tried to beat th door down, but afterward
went around back and entered the room by
th kitchen way. Here the fight was not
renewed, according to Henry's story, but
the old man went out, Henry fallowing
Iilm. Th old man went out to the fence
und there laid down and died. The ac
cused helped to carry the body back Into
(he house.
What Others Had to Bay.
Th story of Henry Is not consistent with
that of other witnesses, who maintain that
Henry dragged his father out onto the
porch by th shoulders after the first fight
Inside th room and then kicked and beat
Mm. This testimony was given by Henry'
brothers and sisters and the witness, Mrs.
Gregg, who pulled Henry away from his
father after the first assault outside. Then
fh says Henry broke away and went back
o the front door and split the panel with
his fist In his endeavor to get In a second
time.
Th autopsy after the father's death
showed th old man's left eye had been
beaten out, several bruises on his head and
that several of his rib had been broken In
the assault .
District Attorney Baxter began his argu
ment to th Jury Monday at about 4: and
had not . completed It when the court
directed an adjournment until o'clock
Tuesday morning.
Th accused Is a good looking young man
f a or a years of age. He had attended
the government school for Indians at Car
lisle, Pa.; and later at Chamberlain, 8. D.
It waa shown during the trial that hi and
his father had frequent quarrels andhat
on two or three occasions the old man .had
assaulted the young man with the avowed
Intention 'of killing him.
The reputation of young Guitar waa
rhown to b excellent. It was shown he had
charge of the farm on which the Guitars
lived and was a hard working, Industrious
man. The reputation of the father was
shown to be good, when he was sober, but
that he was regarded as dangerous when In
liquor and was particularly quarrelsome
while Intoxicated.
Th son Is a grand nephew of Henry Fon
tanels, th former chief of th Omaha
tribe.

Judge Carland to the charge of man
slaughter. In killing of hia sweetheart,
Cora Elk, a young woman of the same
tribe, and waa sentenced to tin years in
th Sioux Falls penitentiary and to pay
a fin of $100.
The killing of Cora. Elk occurred neur tho
Wlnnebugo agency, the night of July 5.
Th trouble grew out of a drunken brawl,
stimulated by Jealousy. The girl was
kicked and beaten to death by Fourcloud,
und he was Indicted for murder In the
first degree at the November session of tha
federal grand Jury. Upon his arraignment
Tuesday afternoon he was permitted to
withdraw hia first plea of not guilty to
murder In th first degree and enter a plea
of guilty to manslaughter. Th change of
plea, was consented to on tha part of tha
district attorney on the ground that the
only eye witness of the murder of Cora
Ellt was a young Indian girl, whose evi
dence would hav to be given through an
Interpreter and a. trial of several days ca
sus. .

NEW YORK, Dec. 11 Today's stock
market opened weak and excited, with
prices generally lower. The opening trans
actions showed some confusion, there being
wide variations in quotations on sales
made apparently at the same time. Amal
gamated Copper opened from SIS to 62V4
and then declined to 61. It closed last
night at
Greene Consolidated Copper sold from 22
to a down to It. Northern Securities
sold from 1231s down to 122.
Yesterday's weak closing In the stock
market and the natural consequences pre
cipitated heavy selling throughout the list
this morning. The only evidence of sup
port was In Amalgamated Copper, of which
8.000 shares sold at 61 and 624, compared
with . 61 last night. Thirty thousand
shares of United States Steel sold at 26
and 25, compared with 3B last night;
10,000 shares of the preferred at 86V4 and 88,
compared with 87 4 last night, and 8,000
shares of Union Pacific at 106 and 10S,
compared with 106 last night. The last
named subsequently receded 24. There
were breaks besides of 2 In Baltimore A

ing, 2 points in Pennsylvania and Missouri
Pacific, 2 in Sugar and 1 to 1 In a long
list of prominent active stocks.
Greene Consolidated Copper rallied to 25.
At 10:28 it sold at 23.
Anxiety Is Showa.
It Is no exaggeration to say that Wall
street began the day with more anxiety
than It has shown since the May panic of
1901. Reasons for this feeling were plenty,
chief among them being the absolute col
lapse of the market at yesterday's close,
revealing weak spots in unlooked-for places.
A great majority of the brokerage houses
had their clerical force at work until late
last evening, and some of them worked
long utter midnight examining uccounts
and Issuing Imperative calls to customers
for more margins.
Many Stock exchange members arrived at
their offices much earlier than usual, to
prepare for the day and to get In line on
the London market. That center offered
but slight encouragement No Americans
showed general recovery from the opening
demoralization there. Most every conceiv
able sort of rumor was in the air this
morning, and the names of individuals and
firms who are commonly supposed to have
suffered by the break were freely. If pri
vately, mentioned. It was reported, among
other things, that a meeting of the big
bank Interests had been held last night
and It had been decided to support the
market If the situation became critical.
For this, as well as similar rumors, there
appeared to be no foundation. Few
doubted, however, that the moneyed Inter
ests were prepared for any serious
emergency.
Attracted by the previous day's events
the gallery of the Stock exchange held a
large crowd of onlookers. The floor was
crowded with members, many of them old
timers who seldom ever appear there ex
cept on momentous occasions. The sub
dued noise which prevailed at the opening
broke into a roar at the first sound of the
chairman's gong. - The greatest crowds
were again around the Amalgamated Cop
per and United States Steel trading posts,
where brokers fairly mauled one another
In their efforts to execute orders. "Many
of these, as Indicated by the opening quo
tations, were to sell "at the market." The
offices of the brokerage houses were
crowded with customers, many of them
from out of town. They seemed to think
It necessary to their Interest to be In close
touch with the situation.
Powerful Support la Felt.
In the offices of commission houses which
have private wires running to the leading
cities the seen was especially animated
and excited. Telegraph operators were re
ceiving and sending countless messages
and It seemed a If the country at large
was waiting on Wall street.
Before the end of the first hour th tap
was at least ten minutes behind the market
Amalgamated Copper was quoted at 62
at a time when 64 was being bid on the
floor. Support was shown In this and
other stocks and brokers supported buying
by Insiders. Bargain hunters also took a
hand. Offerings of Copper seemed to be
freely absorbed, and such gossip as leaked
out of the board room In th early trading
Indicated that the buying was of a general
character. The delayed quotations on the
tape recorded some further disastrous
breaks In prices, but powerful support
quickly became manifest and there were
spasmodic rallies all through the list. The
bears rushed to cover and carried Amalga
mated Copper 8 points over last night.
Southern Pacific, Colorado Fuel and In
ternational Paper recovered to a point over
last night and fractional gains were es
tablished In United States Steel, Baltimore
& Ohio, Union Pacific, Pennsylvania, Nor
folk & Western, Rock Island and Kansas
Sc Texas preferred. Recoveries were com
plete, or practically so. In Missouri Pacific,
Southern Railway and People's Gas.
The determined support of Amalgamated
e Barometer of Trade
The typewriter business is the first to
feel the. impulse of reviving activity.
Therefore business men everywhere
will be interested in the fact that
reports from our North American
branches show marked increases from
day to day, in the sales of the
New York and Everywhere
Copper, which lifted It I points over last
night. Induced a rush to cover on the part
of bears and violent rallies ensued, which
extended all through the list and were of
substantial proportions. With the lull In
th storm of liquidation the market became
steady for the time, but developed fever
lsh ton again and there were concessions
before 11 o'clock of a half po'nt.
Call money opened at 8 per cent and held
at that figure throughout the morning.
London traded both ways, but probably
sold 20.000 she re on balance. The story
was told that Jut before the opening
here ?6.000 shares of th United States
Steel preferred were dumped on th Lon
don market, the object being apparently
to depress prices here. London doubtless
sold back all this stock at a profit. One
room trader Is said to have bought IR.OnO
shares of Steel preferred, which he sold at
a profit of 14 points. Numerous similar
quick "turns" were probably made on a
smaller scale. The recovery conveyed the
theory that the greater part of the liquida
tion by weak Interests has been completed.
The buying power. In the Judgment of on
lookers, was of a better quality than had
been seen sine the beginning of the de
cline. Another chill pervaded the stock market
In the last hour, when Amalgamated Cop
per, after selling up more than 5 points
over last night, suddenly relapsed 2V The
gains which had been established elsewhere
melted away In short order, but at about
last night's level. Support was again forth
coming of the same character as that which
had protected the earlier market. Some
sharp rallies resulted and In a few case
prices ran up higher than before.
Just before 11 o'clock the rallying period
was followed by a slight depression which
affected practically all the market. Greene
Consolidated went off to 234. Amalgamated
sold at 634 and Copper Range at 674. but
In each case at above last night's closings.
There was little excitement and the volume
of trading was very light. ,In the noon
rally most of the lenders recorded gains.
Amalgamated touched 65, Greene rose to
244 and Copper Range to 67T4- The closing
for coppers waa comparatively strong
Greene Consolidated at 254, op 4 from yes
terday, and Copper Range at 67, up l.

Market In Boston.
BOSTON, Dec. IS. The Boston stock mar
ket at the opening today showed weakness.
Coppers running off Immediately from 4
to 3 points from last night's closing. Greene
Consolidated went off 3 points to 22, but
recovered 1 point on later sales. Amalga
mated sold at 61, off Y from last night.
The opening sales of Copper Range were
ft 65, a drop of 1 point. Trading was
active at the very beginning and feverish.
A determined attempt to check the bearish
tendency became manifest at the outset.
As a result the market steadied perceptibly
all around. Greene Consolidated recovered
2 more points and sold at it.
The market became quiet at the recovered
level of prices, but support was forthcom
ing at any attempt to force the level down
again. The whole market showed close
sympathy with Amalgamated Copper, which
touched 654 early In the afternoon, and
the support for that stock relieved the
pressure at any other point.
Greene Not Ousted,
NEW YORK, Dec. 15. During today's
early slump In prices on the Stock ex
change and on the curb market It was
reported that Colonel W. C. Greene had
lost control of the Greene Consolidated
Copper company. When this rumor was
called to Colonel Greene's attention he
made the following statement, denying that
control of the company had passed:
Control of Green Consolidated . Copper
rests with me and ray friends, as it has
from the time 1 took hold. Today I own
252,000 shares out of a total of 8M.O0O. Of
my holdings 160 share were purchased by
me wfthin the last ftw days. Next to my
self Edward H. Harrlman is the largest
Individual holder of Greene Copper. To the
best of my knowledge, neither H.' H
Rogers nor any of the Amalgamated Cop
per company Interests have ever owned a
single share of Greene Copper. Together
with my friends I control vastly more
than a majority of the capital stock.
Weak In London.
LONDON, Dec. 13.-Pi1ces on the Stock
exchange today opened weak and below
parity, rallied at noon to above parity,
reacted, and after 2 o'clock there was
heavy selling on New York orders. United
States Steel preferred and Union Pacific
breaking two points. '
Gamblers' Cases Coming I'p.
SHERIDAN. Wyo., Dec. 13.-In tho
Fourth Judicial district court, which con
vened In Sheridan Monday, the trial of
forty-four gamblers who run gaming tables
and wheels In Sheridan will be held. The
principle Involved Is whether a law of the
state can be set aside by the city. The last
legislature passed an antl-gambllng law.
At once, on the result, gambling was shut
out of Sheridan county by Its attorney, J.
H. Burgess. However, In the spring of
1904 the city granted licenses to the gam
blers to run gaming tables after the council
had passed an ordinance licensing gambling.
As fast as the gamblers recommenced their
work they were arrested and Invariably
their bonds were Vlxed at toco each to ap
pear In the next session of the district
court. Much interest is centered In Judge
Scott's decision in this term of court. If
he decides the law unconstitutional, t set
tles the whole number of cases and If not
they will be held for trial.
Soldlera Have Warm Game.
SHERIDAN. Wyo., Dec. 13. (Special.)
In the second foot ball game played Sun
clay afternoon between two elevens of cav

CUNNINGHAM IS REIIOTED
President of Sural Osrrieri is Dismissed
from the Fublio Service.
ACTION FOLLOWS AN INVESTIGATION
Postmaster Geaeral Decides that
Booth Omaha Maa Waa Gallty of
lasabordlaatloa and Other
lafractlons of Boles.
WASHINGTON, Dec. ls.-Postmaster
General Wynne today removed from office
Frank H. Cunningham, the South Omaha
(NebJ rural carrier, who is president of
the National Association of Rural Car
riers, and James C. Kellar of Cleveland.
O., who Is at the head of the National
Association of Letter Carriers.
The dismissal is the result of an Investi
gation of charges of Insubordination, In
belag absent from duty without leave and
violation of the president's order ot Jan
uary U, 1M. prohibiting Individual or or
ganised attempts of government employes
to influence legislation or to solicit in
crease of pay.
Cunningham applied to the postmaster
last October for leave of absence.
which th postmaster forwarded to Wash
ington. The Poetofflce department de
clined to approve the application and so
Instructed th postmaster. Mr. Cunning
ham, however. Ignored this action and
came east. From that time, It Is an
nounced at the Poetofflce department, he
apparently devoted his entire time to ef
forts to secure pledges from candidates
for election or re-election to congress to
support the bill approved by the" carriers
for an increase of their pay.
Violated Executive Order.
His methods, It Is charged, were In dis
tinct violation of the executive order which
expressly forbids "all government officers
and employes, either directly or Indirectly,
Individually or through associations, to
solicit an Increase of pay or to Influence or
attempt to Influence In their own Interest
any other legislation whatever, cither be
fore congress, or Its committees, or In
any way save through the headquarters in
or under which they are serving, on penalty
of dismissal from the government service."
Th association sent out circular letters
to congress In an effort to secure pledges.
These leters. It Is stated, were signed by
Secretary Tumber of the association, who
is also a rural carrier at Rockport, N. Y.,
and his case Is under Investigation. Mr.
Cunningham submitted his resignation yes
terday, but the department declined to ac
cept It.
The case of James C. Keller of the
Cleveland (O.) postofllce, who Is head of
the National Association of Letter Car
riers, also reached a climax today. His
activity during the campaign has been
I under investigation, and some days ago he
was ordered to return forthwith to his
duties at Cleveland. He sent a reply to
, th postofflce which was Interpreted as
I Insubordinate and he also was dismissed.
President Approves Course.
At the meeting of the cabinet today Post
master General Wynne reported to the
president the action he had taken In the
cases of Cunningham and Ke.ler and ex
plained the nature of the charges againsi
them. President Roosevelt practically en
dorsed the postmaster general's action.
Postmaster General Wynne iiilouiied the
president that when Cunningham presented
to Mr. Brlstow his resignation from the
service he told htm that he proposed to
remain In Washington to promote Itglsla-
Uon in the Interests of the letter carriers.
Mr. Brlstow Inquired who was to pay for
his time and supply his expenses, and was
Infoimed that the letter carriers' organiza
tion would do that. Mr. Brlstow then
flatly told Cunningham that any letter car
rier found by the department to be con
tributing to a fund for the support of a
lobbyist In Washington would be removed
Instantly from the service.
Local members of the National Associa
tion of City Letter Carriers deplore the
prominence their association has been given
In connection with the "pernicious political
activity" that has resulted In the dismissal
of President Keller of their association,
and the rebuke administered Preslden.
Cunningham of the Rural Letter Carriers'
association. Said a local member of the
city letter carriers' association:
"Our association Is In no wise political,
nor is Its purpose to secure legislation In
our behalf. We recognize that any In
crease of salary or Improvement In the
letter carriers' conditions must be based on
merit alone. By faithful attention to our
duties we feel confident we shall get everv
reward we deserve without political Inter
ference. Our association Is wholly fra
! ternal and beneficial, for the purpose of Im-
: proving ourselves In our work and to look
after our sick and distressed comrades."

When you ore first aware of any private disease, weaknesses or drains
Upon your vitality, then it Is that you should decide an importunt question,
one thnt means much to jour future health and happiness. If you procure
proper medical advice and treatment without delay you will secure to yourself
that health, success and enjoyment of Ufa which is every man's lot. whose
bright nnd sternly eyes, clear and healthy skin, active brain, congenial makeup
and physical development show that no contaminating Influences of private dis
eases are devastating his system. That no mental, moral or physical weak
nesses are depleting his manhood, that no secret drains upon tils vitality are
robbing him of his substance and making his life a miserable failure.
Otherwise, If you delay too long or experiment with uncertain and Im
proper treatment, or allow yourself to be deceived by misleading statements
or Incompetent doctors or specialists, then you will be one of the many un
fortunntes who have long regretted that they held their first little aliment
too cheaply; who after years of suffering and dosing with cheap preparations,
free treatments and quick cure fallncles, come to the specialists of the
State Medical Institute to be cured. They fully realize the great mistake
that tliey have made In not consulting these great specialists first. Will you
make tho same mistake, or will you get the best first? Do not be satisfied
until you have been examined by the best specialists In the country. You
may be sent away happy without any treatment but with adlvce that will not
only save you much time and money, but will save you mental disgrace.
If your condition requires treatment, you will be treated honestly and skill
fully, and be restored to perfect health In the shortest possible time and at
the least possible expense. '
