SEEKS DISCREPANCIES IN TESTIMONY
Admits Ha Swore to What Was latra
la Former Case la Colorado)
and Did So la Iatereat
. of Daraa.
The trial of the Loyle-Burns suit was
resumed yesterday morning- in district court
with Poyle on the witness stand and his
cross-txamlnatlon was not concluded when
court adjourned for the day. It is expected
his cross-examination will last all of today.
Luring the morning session Mr. Thomas
directed his cross-examination to show that
Doyle's testimony In the present case was
completely at variance with that which he
gave In the trial of the auit of O'Halre
against Burns In the Colorado courts. In
the afternoon Mr. Thomas directed his ef
forts to disprove the statement of Doyle
thst he had little or nothing to do with
the stock Issued by the Fortland compsny
while he was secretary or one of the di
rector of the corporation.
Doyle proved an excellent witness for
himself and met most of Mr. Thomas' ques
tions with the reply: "I don't recollect,"
or "I can't say that I did."
One question of Mr. Thomas caused a
laugh "among the large audience in tha
lobby, Which ' was largely composed of
fashionably dressed women. In answer to
a question why he had given his money
to Burns, Doyle replied:
"I treated him the same aa a boy would
his father."
' This prompted Mr. Thomas to ask the
witness, "Were you calling blm (Burns)
'papa' In those days?"
Identifying His Slstnatares.
Much of the afternoon was taken up In
having Doyle Identify his signatures to cer
tificates of stock tssaued by the Portland
company during the time he was secretary
of the company, aleo to Identify certificates
of stock belonging to him issued to Kate
Burns as trustee. This was done by the de
fense Ira its efforts to disprove the state
ment of Doyle that Burns alone handled aW
of the stock and that all he did was to
sign his name as secretary when called
upon.
. An affidavit made by Doyle In the
O'Halre-Burns suit, In which Doyle referred
to Burns as the owner of the Bob Tall No.
2 claim, was offered, by the, defense In evi
dence, also the copy of an affidavit which
is now In the land office In Washington
in which Burns and Harnan as "disinter
ested" witnesses swore to Burns being the
owner of the Tidal Wave claim and that
ha had never abandoned the work on It
This affidavit was made in connection with
the securing of the patent on the claim
by Burns.
The scene almost reached the dramatic
when Mr Thomas asked Doyle, when he
had repented of giving, aa he now admit
ted having done, falae "testimony In the
O'Halre-Burns suit and to which question
Doyle, looking squarely into the face of his
cross-examiner, replied: . -
'."Mr." Thomas,' this' Is the only ' wrong
thing I have done in my life and I have
repented exceedingly and extremely, and
God knows I have repented." "
Charles J. Hughes, "jr., senior ' counsel
from Colorado for Doyle, who arrived hers
Sunday, was obliged to return to Denver
yesterday afternoon. Ha announced he
would return In time at least to take part
In the argument, even if he had to leave
the case in .which he Is now engaged In
Denver.
VALUABLE PAPERS ARE MISSING
Safe in Lawyer's Office Robbed of Box
of Documents.
When A. T. Fllcklnger of the legal firm
of Fllcklnger Brothers opened the safe In
their office In the Bhugart block yesterday
marnlng he discovered that a , tin box
containing valuable papers had been stolen.
The papers, which belong to the William
Saar estate, comprised among others,
promissory notes of the face value of
$11,000 and a time certificate of deposit
Issued by the First National bank of this
city for S2&4.80.
While unable to direct suspicion against
any particular person, .Mr. Fllcklnger is
of the belief that the box was stolen some
time during Saturday afternoon during his
and his brother's temporary absence from
the office, ' Tha safe at that time was
unlocked and possibly the door was slightly
open. The stenographer was in the ad
joining room but she failed to hear any
one enter the office. Mr. Fllnkinger locked
the safe on leaving the office for the day
Saturday evening, but before doing so
did not look Into it to see If everything
was all rlht.
Mr. Fllcklnger stated yesterday that the
papers were . absolutely of no value to
anyone but the administrators of the s
tate Fortunately Mr. Fllcklnger haa a
complete Inventory of all the promissory
notes, and other papera, as one .waa re
cently made by the administrators of the
estate. The loss of the papers, however,
will cause considerable annoyance and
trouble, and Mr. Fllcklnger states he is
willing to give a reward for their return
and will ask no questions.
REWARD OFFERED.
Reward will be paid for the return of
tin box and contents taken from the safe
In Fllcklnger Brothers' law office on Sat
urday, March 18, and no questions asked.

charged with obtaining money under false
pretenses frOm A. A. Clark, the loan
broker. It Is alleged that Baker secured

proposition to take the mortgage off tha

previously mortgaged by him belonged to
his mother. The young man's mother waa
yesterday trying to settle tha mstter by
paying tha money which ha had secured.

addition appointed President Hess and
Member Tlnley as a committee to employ
an attorney to take the matter Into court
and bring suit 10 enjoin the Board of
Health from debarring any child from
school or from closing any schools because
of the refusal of the Board of Education

On the president's desk was a large
package containing the certlflcatea which

Klngr to Talk Good Roads.
AMES, la., March 20. (Special.) The
State Highway commission has engaged
Mr. D. Ward King of Maltland, Mo., as one
of tha expert Instructors in earth roads
maintenance for the Good Roads school,
to be held here June 12 to 18. A large pro
portion of Iowa's 100,000 miles of public
highways for an Indefinite period' will be
necessarily maintained as earth roads and
the commission has been very strongly rec
ommending some form Of continuous main
tenance as the best and most economical.
A number of farmers' clubs have been or
ganised to try this plan this year and
many Individuals will also take it up. A
variety of tools may be used. Including an
ordinary harrow, a light steel railroad rati
and several forms of hood-made scrapers.
The Idea of this continuous maintenance
Is to go over the road when It Is beginning
to dry after each wet jierlod to smooth
tha ruts and to preserve the crown of the
road. The commission now has under way
experiments on typical sections of country
road near Ames.
Mr.- King Is perhaps tha most prominent
and successful advocate of this system and
he has contrived the "split log'' or. "Mis
souri drag" the name explaining the ma
terial from which It Is constructed for the
purpose. He -vlll be one of the speakers

To the People of Nebraska:
There Is an attempt now being made by the combined railroad, line elevators and
line lumber yard interests gathered at Lincoln to cause the enactment of a law known ,a
HOUSE liOLL NUMBER 255 by which the taxes of the people will surely be increased,
and the home administration of their county expenditures for. bridges will in part be re
moved from the hands of their local authorities. NO SIMILAR LAW HAS EVER YET
BEEN ENACTED RY ANY STATE IN THE UNION. -
THIS LAW IS FOR THE BENTeFIT OF THE LUMBER AND GRAIN TRUST
NOW OPERATING LINE ELEVATORS AND LUMBER YARDS THROUGHOUT THE
STATE, and to the end that such trusts may inflict upon the tax-paying public of this stato
the same heavy exactions they are now Inflicting upon the people of this state in their
lumber purchases. Preliminary to accomplishing this purpose hey must have some law
through which they can wipe out the business of parties engaged in furnishing material
and constructing bridges in this state. This they have found in House Roll 255. Not-'
withstanding the large amount of money spent for bridges, none of the men engaged In
such work have ever been able to acquire more than a moderate competency in such busi
ness. This is of itself the best guarantee of the fidelity and care that has been used in
the expenditures for bridges by our county officials now charged with the care of such
matters. ' ,
Engaged in an unequal fight at Lincoln with these combined trust forces is Robert
Z. Drake, owner of the Standard Bridge Company. WE APPEAL TO THE PEOPLE OF
THIS STATE TO HELP HIM BY THEIR ADVICE, SYMPATHY AND ANY OTHER:
HONORABLE MEANS TO PREVENT THIS INIQUITOUS MEASURE FROM BECOM
ING A LAW. '
We are, in the Interest of honest home administration of home affairs, and always
in the interest of fair play,
Very respectfully, '
